NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2020

Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Class A common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. Class C Common Stock is excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding for the calculation of basic net income (loss) per share, as holders of Class C Common Stock are not entitled to any dividends or liquidating distributions.

The Company uses the “if-converted method” to determine the potential dilutive effect of (i) an assumed exchange of outstanding Common Units of Altus Midstream (and the cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of outstanding Class C Common Stock) for shares of Class A Common Stock, and (ii) an assumed exchange of the outstanding Preferred Units of Altus Midstream for shares of Class A Common Stock. The treasury stock method is used to determine the potential dilutive effect of its outstanding warrants. The dilutive effect of any earn-out consideration payable in shares is only included in periods for which the underlying conditions for the issuance are met.

The computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements is shown in the table below.

(1)Shares of Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock issued to Apache in exchange for its ownership interests in the Altus Midstream Entities were retroactively restated from May 26, 2016 (inception) to the Closing Date, based on the proportionate value of the capital contributions made by Apache to the Altus Midstream Entities. The calculation of the weighted average shares outstanding from inception up to the Closing Date includes all shares issued to Apache, in order to reflect Apache’s 100 percent economic interest in the Altus Midstream Entities until that time. For further detail of the Business Combination and associated financial statement presentation, see Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 2—Recapitalization Transaction.

(2)The effect of an assumed exchange of outstanding Common Units of Altus Midstream (and the cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of outstanding Class C Common Stock) would have been anti-dilutive the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

(3)The effect of an assumed exchange of the outstanding Preferred Units of Altus Midstream for shares of Class A Common Stock would have been anti-dilutive for all periods presented in which the Preferred Units were outstanding.

(4)Share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the Company’s reverse stock split, which was effected June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 11—Equity for further information.

The diluted earnings per share calculation excludes the effects of the outstanding warrants of the Company to purchase an aggregate 947,082 shares of Class A Common Stock, since the associated impacts would have been anti-dilutive for all periods presented. Earn-out consideration granting Apache the right to receive additional shares of Class A Common Stock is also not included in the earnings per share calculation above, as the conditions for issuance were not satisfied as of the year ended December 31, 2020.

Further discussion of the Company’s outstanding common stock, warrants, and earn-out consideration as well as any applicable redemption rights is provided in Note 11 —Equity. Further discussion of the Preferred Units and associated embedded features can be found in Note 12 —Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units and Note 15 —Fair Value Measurements, respectively.
