FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISKS

This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). All statements other than statements of historical facts included or incorporated by reference in this report, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected revenues, projected costs, and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s examination of historical operating trends, the information that was used to prepare its estimate of proved reserves as of December 31, 2021, and other data in the Company’s possession or available from third parties. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “expect,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “believe,” “continue,” “seek,” “guidance,” “might,” “outlook,” “possibly,” “potential,” “prospect,” “should,” “would,” or similar terminology, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward looking. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable under the circumstances, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations include, but are not limited to, its assumptions about:

•the scope, duration, and reoccurrence of any epidemics or pandemics (including, specifically, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and any related variants) and the actions taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, governmental authorities, customers, contractors, and suppliers, in response to such epidemics or pandemics;

•the mandate, availability, and effectiveness of vaccine programs and therapeutics related to the treatment of COVID-19;

•the market prices of oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs), and other products or services;

•the Company’s commodity hedging arrangements;

•the supply and demand for oil, natural gas, NGLs, and other products or services;

•production and reserve levels;

•drilling risks;

•economic and competitive conditions, including market and macro-economic disruptions resulting from the Russian war in Ukraine;

•the availability of capital resources;

•capital expenditures and other contractual obligations;

•currency exchange rates;

•weather conditions;

•inflation rates;

•the availability of goods and services;

•the impact of political pressure and the influence of environmental groups and other stakeholders on decisions and policies related to the industries in which the Company and its affiliates operate;

•legislative, regulatory, or policy changes, including initiatives addressing the impact of global climate change or further regulating hydraulic fracturing, methane emissions, flaring, or water disposal;

•the Company’s performance on environmental, social, and governance measures;

•terrorism or cyberattacks;

•the occurrence of property acquisitions or divestitures;

•the integration of acquisitions;

•the Company’s ability to access the capital markets;

•market-related risks, such as general credit, liquidity, and interest-rate risks;

•the Company’s expectations with respect to the new operating structure implemented pursuant to the Holding Company Reorganization (as defined in the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I, Item 1—Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) and the associated disclosure implications;

•other factors disclosed under Items 1 and 2—Business and Properties—Estimated Proved Reserves and Future Net Cash Flows, Item 1A—Risk Factors, Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Item 7A—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk and elsewhere in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021;

•other risks and uncertainties disclosed in the Company’s second-quarter 2022 earnings release;

•other factors disclosed under Part II, Item 1A—Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q; and

•other factors disclosed in the other filings that the Company makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Other factors or events that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all such factors or events. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company, or persons acting on its behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, the Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise these statements, whether based on changes in internal estimates or expectations, new information, future developments, or otherwise.

APA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by APA Corporation (APA or the Company) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods, on a basis consistent with the annual audited financial statements, with the exception of any recently adopted accounting pronouncements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read along with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which contains a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies and other disclosures.

On March 1, 2021, Apache Corporation, the Company’s predecessor registrant, consummated a holding company reorganization (the Holding Company Reorganization), pursuant to which Apache Corporation became a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of APA Corporation, and all of Apache Corporation’s outstanding shares automatically converted into equivalent corresponding shares of APA. Pursuant to the Holding Company Reorganization, APA became the successor issuer to Apache Corporation pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act and replaced Apache Corporation as the public company trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker symbol “APA.” The Holding Company Reorganization modernized the Company’s operating and legal structure to more closely align with its growing international presence, making it more consistent with other companies that have subsidiaries operating around the globe.

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As of June 30, 2022, the Company's significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s financial statements for prior periods include reclassifications that were made to conform to the current-year presentation, if applicable.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of APA and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions.

The implementation of the Holding Company Reorganization was accounted for as a merger under common control. APA recognized the assets and liabilities of Apache at carryover basis. The consolidated financial statements of APA present comparative information for prior years on a combined basis, as if both APA and Apache were under common control for all periods presented.

The Company’s undivided interests in oil and gas exploration and production ventures and partnerships are proportionately consolidated. The Company consolidates all other investments in which, either through direct or indirect ownership, it has more than a 50 percent voting interest or controls the financial and operating decisions. Noncontrolling interests represent third-party ownership in the net assets of a consolidated subsidiary of APA and are reflected separately in the Company’s financial statements.

Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration and Production Corporation (Sinopec) owns a one-third minority participation in the Company’s consolidated Egypt oil and gas business as a noncontrolling interest, which is reflected as a separate noncontrolling interest component of equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, prior to the BCP Business Combination defined below, third-party investors owned a minority interest of approximately 21 percent of Altus Midstream Company (ALTM or Altus), which was reflected as a separate noncontrolling interest component of equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. ALTM qualified as a variable interest entity under GAAP, which APA consolidated because a wholly owned subsidiary of APA had a controlling financial interest and was determined to be the primary beneficiary. Additionally, the assets of ALTM could only be used to settle obligations of ALTM. There was no recourse to the Company for ALTM’s liabilities.

7

On February 22, 2022, ALTM closed a previously announced transaction to combine with privately owned BCP Raptor Holdco LP (BCP and, together with BCP Raptor Holdco GP, LLC, the Contributed Entities) in an all-stock transaction, pursuant to the Contribution Agreement entered into by and among ALTM, Altus Midstream LP, New BCP Raptor Holdco, LLC (the Contributor), and BCP (the BCP Contribution Agreement). Pursuant to the BCP Contribution Agreement, the Contributor contributed all of the equity interests of the Contributed Entities (the Contributed Interests) to Altus Midstream LP, with each Contributed Entity becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Altus Midstream LP (the BCP Business Combination). Upon closing the transaction, the combined entity was renamed Kinetik Holdings Inc. (Kinetik), and the Company determined that it was no longer the primary beneficiary of ALTM. The Company further determined that ALTM no longer qualified as a variable interest entity under GAAP. As a result, the Company deconsolidated ALTM on February 22, 2022. Refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures for further detail.

The stockholders agreement entered into by and among the Company, ALTM, BCP, and other related and affiliated entities provides that the Company, through one of its wholly owned subsidiaries, retains the ability to designate a director to the board of directors of Kinetik for so long as the Company and its affiliates beneficially own 10 percent or more of Kinetik’s outstanding common stock. Based on this board representation, combined with the Company’s stock ownership, management determined it has significant influence over Kinetik. Investments in which the Company has significant influence, but not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. These investments are recorded separately as “Equity method interests” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company elected the fair value option to account for its equity method interest in Kinetik. Refer to Note 6—Equity Method Interests for further detail.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the Company’s financial statements, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known.

Significant estimates with regard to these financial statements include the estimates of fair value for long-lived assets (refer to “Fair Value Measurements” and “Property and Equipment” sections in this Note 1 below), the fair value determination of acquired assets and liabilities (refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures), the fair value of equity method interests (refer to “Equity Method Interests” within this Note 1 below and Note 6—Equity Method Interests), the assessment of asset retirement obligations (refer to Note 8—Asset Retirement Obligation), the estimation of the contingent liability representing Apache’s potential obligation to decommission sold properties in the Gulf of Mexico (refer to Note 11—Commitments and Contingencies), the estimate of income taxes (refer to Note 10—Income Taxes), and the estimate of proved oil and gas reserves and related present value estimates of future net cash flows therefrom.

Fair Value Measurements

Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820-10-35, “Fair Value Measurement” (ASC 820), provides a hierarchy that prioritizes and defines the types of inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs, which consist of unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 inputs consist of quoted prices for similar instruments. Level 3 valuations are derived from inputs that are significant and unobservable; hence, these valuations have the lowest priority.

The valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value include a market approach, an income approach, and a cost approach. A market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. An income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations, including present value techniques, option-pricing models, and the excess earnings method. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Refer to Note 4—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, Note 6—Equity Method Interests, Note 9—Debt and Financing Costs, and Note 12—Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest - Altus for further detail regarding the Company’s fair value measurements recorded on a recurring basis.

8

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded no asset impairments in connection with fair value assessments.

Revenue Recognition

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s contracts with customers during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Payments under all contracts with customers are typically due and received within a short-term period of one year or less after physical delivery of the product or service has been rendered. Receivables from contracts with customers, including receivables for purchased oil and gas sales and net of allowance for credit losses, were $1.8 billion and $1.3 billion as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Oil and gas production revenues from non-customers represent income taxes paid to the Arab Republic of Egypt by Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation on behalf of the Company. Revenue and associated expenses related to such tax volumes are recorded as “Oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids production revenues” and “Current income tax provision,” respectively, in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations.

Refer to Note 14—Business Segment Information for a disaggregation of oil, gas, and natural gas production revenue by product and reporting segment.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” variable market prices for each short-term commodity sale are allocated entirely to each performance obligation as the terms of payment relate specifically to the Company’s efforts to satisfy its obligations. As such, the Company has elected the practical expedients available under the standard to not disclose the aggregate transaction price allocated to unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.

Property and Equipment

The carrying value of the Company’s property and equipment represents the cost incurred to acquire the property and equipment, including capitalized interest, net of any impairments. For business combinations, property and equipment cost is based on the fair values at the acquisition date.

Oil and Gas Property

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas property. Under this method of accounting, exploration costs, such as exploratory geological and geophysical costs, delay rentals, and exploration overhead, are expensed as incurred. All costs related to production, general corporate overhead, and similar activities are expensed as incurred. If an exploratory well provides evidence to justify potential development of reserves, drilling costs associated with the well are initially capitalized, or suspended, pending a determination as to whether a commercially sufficient quantity of proved reserves can be attributed to the area as a result of drilling. This determination may take longer than one year in certain areas depending on, among other things, the amount of hydrocarbons discovered, the outcome of planned geological and engineering studies, the need for additional appraisal drilling activities to determine whether the discovery is sufficient to support an economic development plan, and government sanctioning of development activities in certain international locations. At the end of each quarter, management reviews the status of all suspended exploratory well costs in light of ongoing exploration activities; in particular, whether the Company is making sufficient progress in its ongoing exploration and appraisal efforts or, in the case of discoveries requiring government sanctioning, whether development negotiations are underway and proceeding as planned. If management determines that future appraisal drilling or development activities are unlikely to occur, associated suspended exploratory well costs are expensed.

Acquisition costs of unproved properties are assessed for impairment at least annually and are transferred to proved oil and gas properties to the extent the costs are associated with successful exploration activities. Significant undeveloped leases are assessed individually for impairment based on the Company’s current exploration plans. Unproved oil and gas properties with individually insignificant lease acquisition costs are amortized on a group basis over the average lease term at rates that provide for full amortization of unsuccessful leases upon lease expiration or abandonment. Costs of expired or abandoned leases are charged to exploration expense, while costs of productive leases are transferred to proved oil and gas properties. Costs of maintaining and retaining unproved properties, as well as amortization of individually insignificant leases and impairment of unsuccessful leases, are included in exploration costs in the statement of consolidated operations.

9

Costs to develop proved reserves, including the costs of all development wells and related equipment used in the production of crude oil and natural gas, are capitalized. Depreciation of the cost of proved oil and gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production (UOP) method. The UOP calculation multiplies the percentage of estimated proved reserves produced each quarter by the carrying value of associated proved oil and gas properties. The reserve base used to calculate depreciation for leasehold acquisition costs and the cost to acquire proved properties is the sum of proved developed reserves and proved undeveloped reserves. The reserve base used to calculate the depreciation for capitalized well costs is the sum of proved developed reserves only. Estimated future dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs, net of salvage values, are included in the depreciable cost.

Oil and gas properties are grouped for depreciation in accordance with ASC 932 “Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas.” The basis for grouping is a reasonable aggregation of properties with a common geological structural feature or stratigraphic condition, such as a reservoir or field.

When circumstances indicate that the carrying value of proved oil and gas properties may not be recoverable, the Company compares unamortized capitalized costs to the expected undiscounted pre-tax future cash flows for the associated assets grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are independent of cash flows of other assets. If the expected undiscounted pre-tax future cash flows, based on the Company’s estimate of future crude oil and natural gas prices, operating costs, anticipated production from proved reserves and other relevant data, are lower than the unamortized capitalized cost, the capitalized cost is reduced to fair value. Fair value is generally estimated using the income approach described in ASC 820. The expected future cash flows used for impairment reviews and related fair value calculations are typically based on judgmental assessments, a Level 3 fair value measurement.

Unproved leasehold impairments are typically recorded as a component of “Exploration” expense in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations. Gains and losses on divestitures of the Company’s oil and gas properties are recognized in the statement of consolidated operations upon closing of the transaction. Refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures for more detail.

Gathering, Processing, and Transmission (GPT) Facilities

GPT facilities are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimation of useful life takes into consideration anticipated production lives from the fields serviced by the GPT assets, whether APA-operated or third party-operated, as well as potential development plans by the Company for undeveloped acreage within, or close to, those fields.

The Company assesses the carrying amount of its GPT facilities whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of these facilities is more than the sum of the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over its fair value.

2.    ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

2022 Activity

In July 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of oil and gas assets in the Delaware Basin for a purchase price of $505 million. The transaction closed on July 29, 2022 for a total cost of $555 million, after including post-effective date adjustments to date. The acquisition was effective April 1, 2022, and was funded primarily from borrowings on the Company’s revolving credit facility. A deposit of $51 million was paid during the second quarter in association with this transaction.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company completed leasehold and property acquisitions, primarily in the Permian Basin, for total cash consideration of $26 million. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company also completed the sale of non-core assets and leasehold in multiple transactions for total cash proceeds of $7 million, recognizing a gain of approximately $1 million upon closing of these transactions.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company completed a previously announced transaction to sell certain non-core mineral rights in the Delaware Basin. The Company received total cash proceeds of approximately $736 million after certain post-closing adjustments and recognized an associated gain of approximately $563 million. The Company also completed the sale of other non-core assets and leasehold in multiple transactions for total cash proceeds of $8 million. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $1 million upon closing of these transactions during the first quarter of 2022.

10

The BCP Business Combination was completed on February 22, 2022. As consideration for the contribution of the Contributed Interests, ALTM issued 50 million shares of Class C Common Stock (and Altus Midstream LP issued a corresponding number of common units) to BCP’s unitholders, which are principally funds affiliated with Blackstone and I Squared Capital. ALTM’s stockholders continued to hold their existing shares of Common Stock. As a result of the transaction, the Contributor, or its designees, collectively owned approximately 75 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of ALTM Common Stock. Apache Midstream LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of APA, which owned approximately 79 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of ALTM Common Stock prior to the BCP Business Combination, owned approximately 20 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of ALTM Common Stock after the transaction closed.

As a result of the BCP Business Combination, the Company deconsolidated ALTM on February 22, 2022 and recognized a gain of approximately $609 million that reflects the difference of the Company’s share of ALTM’s deconsolidated balance sheet and the fair value of its approximate 20 percent retained ownership in the combined entity. A summary of components of the gain, including the ALTM balance sheet amounts deconsolidated at the time of close, is included below:

	As of February 22, 2022
	(In millions)
Fair value of Kinetik Class A Common Stock held by Company	$	802
ASSETS:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	143
Other current assets	29
Property and equipment, net	184
Equity method interests	1,367
Other noncurrent assets	12
Total assets deconsolidated	$	1,735
LIABILITIES:

Noncontrolling interest-Altus	72
Total noncontrolling interests deconsolidated	$	714
Net effect of deconsolidating balance sheet	$	(193)
Gain on deconsolidation of ALTM	$	609

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company sold four million of its shares in Kinetik for cash proceeds of $224 million and recognized a loss of $25 million, including transaction fees. Refer to Note 6—Equity Method Interests for further detail. In connection with this secondary offering, the Company has agreed that within the next 24 months, it will invest a minimum of $100 million of these proceeds for new well drilling and completion activity at the Alpine High play in the Delaware Basin, where Kinetik has exclusive gas and NGL gathering and processing rights.

11

2021 Activity

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company completed the sale of certain non-core assets in the Permian Basin with a net carrying value of $157 million, for cash proceeds of $178 million and the assumption of asset retirement obligations of $44 million. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $65 million in connection with the sale.

During the first quarter of 2021, the Company completed leasehold and property acquisitions, primarily in the Permian Basin, for total cash consideration of $2 million. The Company also completed the sale of certain non-core assets and leasehold, primarily in the Permian Basin, in multiple transactions for total cash proceeds of $3 million. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $2 million upon closing of these transactions during the first quarter of 2021.

3.    CAPITALIZED EXPLORATORY WELL COSTS

The Company’s capitalized exploratory well costs were $466 million and $321 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase is primarily attributable to additional drilling activity in Suriname and Egypt.

Projects with suspended exploratory well costs capitalized for a period greater than one year since the completion of drilling are those identified by management as exhibiting sufficient quantities of hydrocarbons to justify potential development. Management is actively pursuing efforts to assess whether proved reserves can be attributed to these projects.

4.    DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Objectives and Strategies

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas prices on the majority of its worldwide production, as well as fluctuations in exchange rates in connection with transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The Company manages the variability in its cash flows by occasionally entering into derivative transactions on a portion of its crude oil and natural gas production and foreign currency transactions. The Company utilizes various types of derivative financial instruments, including forward contracts, futures contracts, swaps, and options, to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from changes in commodity prices or foreign currency values.

Counterparty Risk

The use of derivative instruments exposes the Company to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty. To reduce the concentration of exposure to any individual counterparty, the Company utilizes a diversified group of investment-grade rated counterparties, primarily financial institutions, for its derivative transactions. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had derivative positions with 12 counterparties. The Company monitors counterparty creditworthiness on an ongoing basis; however, it cannot predict sudden changes in counterparties’ creditworthiness. In addition, even if such changes are not sudden, the Company may be limited in its ability to mitigate an increase in counterparty credit risk. Should one of these counterparties not perform, the Company may not realize the benefit of some of its derivative instruments resulting from lower commodity prices or changes in currency exchange rates.

Foreign Currency Derivative Instruments

The Company has open foreign currency costless collar contracts in GBP/USD for £15 million per month for the calendar year 2022 with a weighted average floor and ceiling price of $1.29 and $1.39, respectively.

Embedded Derivatives

Altus Preferred Units Embedded Derivative

The Altus Preferred Units embedded derivative was deconsolidated as of March 31, 2022 as part of the BCP Business Combination. Refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures for discussion of the BCP Business Combination and Note 12—Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest - Altus for a description of the Altus Preferred Units and associated embedded derivative.

Pipeline Capacity Embedded Derivatives

During the fourth quarter of 2019 and first quarter of 2020, the Company entered into agreements to assign a portion of its contracted capacity under an existing transportation agreement to third parties. Embedded in these agreements were arrangements under which the Company received payments calculated based on pricing differentials between Houston Ship Channel and Waha during the calendar years 2020 and 2021. This feature required bifurcation and measurement of the change in market value throughout 2020 and 2021. Unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of this feature were recorded as “Derivative instrument gains (losses), net” under “Revenues and Other” in the statement of consolidated operations, and the balance at the end of December 31, 2021 will be amortized into income over the original tenure of the host contract.

(1)    The derivative fair values are based on analysis of each contract on a gross basis, excluding the impact of netting agreements with counterparties.

The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are not actively quoted in the open market. The Company primarily uses a market approach to estimate the fair values of these derivatives on a recurring basis, utilizing futures pricing for the underlying positions provided by a reputable third party, a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Derivative Activity Recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet

All derivative instruments are reflected as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet. These fair values are recorded by netting asset and liability positions where counterparty master netting arrangements contain provisions for net settlement. The carrying value of the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities and their locations on the consolidated balance sheet are as follows:

	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021

Derivative instrument gains (losses), net	$	(32)	$	(113)	$	(94)	$	45

Derivative instrument gains and losses are recorded in “Derivative instrument gains (losses), net” under “Revenues and Other” in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations. Unrealized gains (losses) for derivative activity recorded in the statement of consolidated operations are reflected in the statement of consolidated cash flows separately as “Unrealized derivative instrument losses (gains), net” in “Adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) to net cash provided by operating activities.”

The Company seeks to maintain a balance between “first of month” and “gas daily pricing” for its U.S. natural gas portfolio and sales activities in a given month as part of its ordinary course of business. This is typically implemented through a combination of physical and financial contracts that settle monthly. In January 2021, the Company entered into financial contracts that increased its exposure to “gas daily pricing” and reduced its exposure to “first of month” pricing for February 2021. The Company realized a gain of $147 million in connection with these contracts in the first quarter of 2021 as a result of extreme daily gas price volatility across Texas in February resulting from Winter Storm Uri.

5.    OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

6.    EQUITY METHOD INTERESTS

The Kinetik Class A Common Stock held by the Company is treated as an interest in equity securities measured at fair value. The Company elected the fair value option for measuring its equity method interest in Kinetik based on practical expedience, variances in reporting timelines, and cost-benefit considerations. The fair value of the Company’s interest in Kinetik is determined using observable share prices on a major exchange, a Level 1 fair value measurement. Fair value adjustments and dividends received are recorded as a component of “Other, net” under “Revenues and other” in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations.

15

The initial interest in Kinetik was measured at fair value based on the Company’s ownership of approximately 12.9 million shares of Kinetik Class A Common stock as of February 22, 2022. In March 2022, the Company sold four million of its shares of Kinetik Class A Common Stock for a loss, including underwriters fees, of $25 million, which was recorded as a component of “Gain on divestitures, net” under “Revenues and other” in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations. Refer to Note 2–Acquisitions and Divestitures for further detail. A fair value adjustment gain of $24 million was recorded during the first quarter of 2022 based on the Company’s remaining 8.9 million shares of Kinetik Class A Common Stock as of March 31, 2022.

Also during the second quarter, the Company received approximately 0.4 million shares of Kinetik’s Class A Common Stock as a paid-in-kind dividend. A fair value adjustment gain of $29 million was recorded during the second quarter based on the Company’s ownership of 18.1 million shares of Kinetik Class A Common Stock on June 30, 2022.

The Company’s ownership represented approximately 13 percent of Kinetik’s outstanding Class A Common Stock, as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022.

(1)    The fair values of the Apache notes and debentures were $4.4 billion and $7.1 billion as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company uses a market approach to determine the fair values of its notes and debentures using estimates provided by an independent investment financial data services firm (a Level 2 fair value measurement).

(2)    The carrying value of borrowings on credit facilities approximates fair value because interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates.

As of June 30, 2022, current debt included $123 million carrying value of 2.625% senior notes due January 15, 2023 and $2 million of finance lease obligations. As of December 31, 2021, current debt included $213 million carrying value of 3.25% senior notes due April 15, 2022 and $2 million of finance lease obligations.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache closed cash tender offers for certain outstanding notes issued under its indentures, accepting for purchase $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of notes. Apache paid holders an aggregate $1.2 billion in cash, reflecting principal, premium to par, and accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recognized a $66 million loss on extinguishment of debt, including $11 million of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs in connection with the note purchases.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache purchased in the open market and canceled senior notes issued under its indentures in an aggregate principal amount of $15 million for an aggregate purchase price of $16 million in cash, including accrued interest and broker fees, reflecting a premium to par of $1 million. The Company recognized a $1 million loss on these repurchases.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache redeemed the outstanding $213 million principal amount of 3.25% senior notes due April 15, 2022, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The redemption was financed by borrowing under Apache’s revolving credit facility.

On April 29, 2022, the Company entered into two syndicated credit agreements for general corporate purposes that replaced and refinanced Apache’s 2018 syndicated credit agreement (the Former Facility).

•One new agreement is denominated in US dollars (the USD Agreement) and provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility, with aggregate commitments of US$1.8 billion (including a letter of credit subfacility of up to US$750 million, of which US$150 million currently is committed). The Company may increase commitments up to an aggregate US$2.3 billion by adding new lenders or obtaining the consent of any increasing existing lenders. This facility matures in April 2027, subject to the Company’s two, one-year extension options.

•The second new agreement is denominated in pounds sterling (the GBP Agreement) and provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility, with aggregate commitments of £1.5 billion for loans and letters of credit. This facility matures in April 2027, subject to the Company’s two, one-year extension options.

In connection with the Company’s entry into the USD Agreement and the GBP Agreement (each, a New Agreement), Apache terminated US$4.0 billion of commitments under the Former Facility, borrowings then outstanding under the Former Facility were deemed outstanding under the USD Agreement, and letters of credit then outstanding under the Former Facility were deemed outstanding under a New Agreement, depending upon whether denominated in US dollars or pounds sterling. Apache may borrow under the USD Agreement up to an aggregate principal amount of US$300 million outstanding at any given time. Apache has guaranteed obligations under each New Agreement effective until the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness under senior notes and debentures outstanding under Apache’s existing indentures is less than US$1.0 billion.

18

As of June 30, 2022, there were $275 million of borrowings and a $20 million letter of credit outstanding under the USD Agreement, and an aggregate £748 million in letters of credit outstanding under the GBP Agreement. As of December 31, 2021, there were $542 million of borrowings and an aggregate £748 million and $20 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Former Facility. The letters of credit denominated in pounds were issued to support North Sea decommissioning obligations, the terms of which required such support after Standard & Poor’s reduced Apache’s credit rating from BBB to BB+ on March 26, 2020.

Apache, from time to time, has and uses uncommitted credit and letter of credit facilities for working capital and credit support purposes. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities. As of June 30, 2022, there were £117 million and $17 million in letters of credit outstanding under these facilities. As of December 31, 2021, there were £117 million and $17 million in letters of credit outstanding under these facilities.

10.    INCOME TAXES

The Company estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Non-cash impairments on the carrying value of the Company’s oil and gas properties, gains and losses on the sale of assets, statutory tax rate changes, and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company’s effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. The Company’s 2022 year-to-date effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by the gain associated with deconsolidation of Altus, the gain on sale of certain non-core mineral rights in the Delaware Basin, and a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. During the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, the Company’s effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets.

On May 26, 2022, the U.K. Chancellor announced a new tax on the profits of oil and gas companies operating in the U.K. and the U.K. Continental Shelf. On June 21, 2022, the U.K. Government published draft legislation concerning this new tax and on July 14, 2022, the Energy (Oil and Gas) Profits Levy Act 2022 was enacted, receiving Royal Assent. Under the new law, an additional levy is assessed at a 25 percent tax rate and will be effective for the period of May 26, 2022, through December 31, 2025. Under U.S. GAAP, the financial statement impact of new legislation will be recorded in the period of enactment. Therefore, in the third quarter of 2022, the Company expects to record a deferred tax expense of approximately $230 million to $250 million related to the remeasurement of the June 30, 2022 U.K. deferred tax liability.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income or capital taxes in various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s tax reserves are related to tax years that may be subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority. The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2014-2017 tax years and is also under audit in various states and foreign jurisdictions as part of its normal course of business.

11.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters

The Company is party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, including litigation and governmental and regulatory controls, which also may include controls related to the potential impacts of climate change. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has an accrued liability of approximately $48 million for all legal contingencies that are deemed to be probable of occurring and can be reasonably estimated. The Company’s estimates are based on information known about the matters and its experience in contesting, litigating, and settling similar matters. Although actual amounts could differ from management’s estimate, none of the actions are believed by management to involve future amounts that would be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity after consideration of recorded accruals. For material matters that the Company believes an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, the Company has disclosed the nature of the matter and a range of potential exposure, unless an estimate cannot be made at this time. It is management’s opinion that the loss for any other litigation matters and claims that are reasonably possible to occur will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

For additional information on Legal Matters described below, refer to Note 11—Commitments and Contingencies to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Argentine Environmental Claims

On March 12, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries completed the sale of all of the Company’s subsidiaries’ operations and properties in Argentina to YPF Sociedad Anonima (YPF). As part of that sale, YPF assumed responsibility for all of the past, present, and future litigation in Argentina involving Company subsidiaries, except that Company subsidiaries have agreed to indemnify YPF for certain environmental, tax, and royalty obligations capped at an aggregate of $100 million. The indemnity is subject to specific agreed conditions precedent, thresholds, contingencies, limitations, claim deadlines, loss sharing, and other terms and conditions. On April 11, 2014, YPF provided its first notice of claims pursuant to the indemnity. Company subsidiaries have not paid any amounts under the indemnity but will continue to review and consider claims presented by YPF. Further, Company subsidiaries retain the right to enforce certain Argentina-related indemnification obligations against Pioneer Natural Resources Company (Pioneer) in an amount up to $45 million pursuant to the terms and conditions of stock purchase agreements entered in 2006 between Company subsidiaries and subsidiaries of Pioneer.

Louisiana Restoration 

As more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, Louisiana surface owners often file lawsuits or assert claims against oil and gas companies, including the Company, claiming that operators and working interest owners in the chain of title are liable for environmental damages on the leased premises, including damages measured by the cost of restoration of the leased premises to its original condition, regardless of the value of the underlying property. From time to time, restoration lawsuits and claims are resolved by the Company for amounts that are not material to the Company, while new lawsuits and claims are asserted against the Company. With respect to each of the pending lawsuits and claims, the amount claimed is not currently determinable or is not material. Further, the overall exposure related to these lawsuits and claims is not currently determinable. While adverse judgments against the Company are possible, the Company intends to actively defend these lawsuits and claims.

Starting in November of 2013 and continuing into 2022, several parishes in Louisiana have pending lawsuits against many oil and gas producers, including the Company. These cases were all removed to federal courts in Louisiana. In these cases, the Parishes, as plaintiffs, allege that defendants’ oil and gas exploration, production, and transportation operations in specified fields were conducted in violation of the State and Local Coastal Resources Management Act of 1978, as amended, and applicable regulations, rules, orders, and ordinances promulgated or adopted thereunder by the Parish or the State of Louisiana. Plaintiffs allege that defendants caused substantial damage to land and water bodies located in the coastal zone of Louisiana. Plaintiffs seek, among other things, unspecified damages for alleged violations of applicable law within the coastal zone, the payment of costs necessary to clear, re-vegetate, detoxify, and otherwise restore the subject coastal zone as near as practicable to its original condition, and actual restoration of the coastal zone to its original condition. While adverse judgments against the Company might be possible, the Company intends to vigorously oppose these claims.

Apollo Exploration Lawsuit

In a case captioned Apollo Exploration, LLC, Cogent Exploration, Ltd. Co. & SellmoCo, LLC v. Apache Corporation, Cause No. CV50538 in the 385th Judicial District Court, Midland County, Texas, plaintiffs alleged damages in excess of $200 million (having previously claimed in excess of $1.1 billion) relating to purchase and sale agreements, mineral leases, and area of mutual interest agreements concerning properties located in Hartley, Moore, Potter, and Oldham Counties, Texas. The trial court entered final judgment in favor of the Company, ruling that the plaintiffs take nothing by their claims and awarding the Company its attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in defending the lawsuit. The court of appeals affirmed in part and reversed in part the trial court’s judgment thereby reinstating some of plaintiff’s claims. Further appeal is pending.

Australian Operations Divestiture Dispute

Pursuant to a Sale and Purchase Agreement dated April 9, 2015 (Quadrant SPA), the Company and its subsidiaries divested Australian operations to Quadrant Energy Pty Ltd (Quadrant). Closing occurred on June 5, 2015. In April 2017, the Company filed suit against Quadrant for breach of the Quadrant SPA. In its suit, the Company seeks approximately AUD $80 million. In December 2017, Quadrant filed a defense of equitable set-off to the Company’s claim and a counterclaim seeking approximately AUD $200 million in the aggregate. The Company believes that Quadrant’s claims lack merit and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operation, or liquidity.

Canadian Operations Divestiture Dispute

Pursuant to a Sale and Purchase Agreement dated July 6, 2017 (Paramount SPA), the Company and its subsidiaries divested their remaining Canadian operations to Paramount Resources LTD (Paramount). Closing occurred on August 16, 2017. On September 11, 2019, four ex-employees of Apache Canada LTD on behalf of themselves and individuals employed by Apache Canada LTD on July 6, 2017, filed an Amended Statement of Claim in a matter styled Stephen Flesch et. al. v Apache Corporation et. al., No. 1901-09160 Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta against the Company and others seeking class certification and a finding that the Paramount SPA amounted to a Change of Control of the Company, entitling them to accelerated vesting under the Company’s equity plans. In the suit, the class seeks approximately $60 million USD and punitive damages. The Company believes that Plaintiffs’ claims lack merit and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operation, or liquidity.

California and Delaware Litigation

On July 17, 2017, in three separate actions, San Mateo County, California, Marin County, California, and the City of Imperial Beach, California, all filed suit individually and on behalf of the people of the state of California against over 30 oil and gas companies alleging damages as a result of global warming. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and abatement under various tort theories. On December 20, 2017, in two separate actions, the City of Santa Cruz and Santa Cruz County and in a separate action on January 22, 2018, the City of Richmond, filed similar lawsuits against many of the same defendants. On November 14, 2018, the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen’s Associations, Inc. also filed a similar lawsuit against many of the same defendants. After removal of all such lawsuits to federal court, the district court remanded them back to state court. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals’ affirmance of this remand decision was appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. That appeal was decided by the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in a similar case, BP p.l.c. v. Mayor and City Council of Baltimore. As a result, the California cases were sent back to the 9th Circuit for further appellate review of the decision to remand the cases to state court. The 9th Circuit has since, once again, affirmed the district court’s remand to state court. The defendants are appealing this latest remand decision to the U.S. Supreme Court. Further activity in the cases has been stayed pending further appellate review.

On September 10, 2020, the State of Delaware filed suit, individually and on behalf of the people of the State of Delaware, against over 25 oil and gas companies alleging damages as a result of global warming. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and abatement under various tort theories. After removal of this lawsuit to federal court, the district court remanded it back to state court. The remand order is being appealed to the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals. Further activity in the case has been stayed pending this appellate review.

The Company believes that it is not subject to jurisdiction of the California courts and that claims made against it in the California and Delaware litigation are baseless. The Company intends to challenge jurisdiction in California and to vigorously defend the Delaware lawsuit.

21

Castex Lawsuit

In a case styled Apache Corporation v. Castex Offshore, Inc., et. al., Cause No. 2015-48580, in the 113th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas, Castex filed claims for alleged damages of approximately $200 million, relating to overspend on the Belle Isle Gas Facility upgrade, and the drilling of five sidetracks on the Potomac #3 well. After a jury trial, a verdict of approximately $60 million, plus fees, costs, and interest was entered against the Company. The Fourteenth Court of Appeals of Texas reversed the judgment, in part, reducing the judgment to approximately $13.5 million, plus fees, costs, and interest against the Company. Further appeal is pending.

Oklahoma Class Action

The Company is a party to a purported class action in Oklahoma styled Albert Steven Allen v. Apache Corporation, Case No. CJ-2019-00219.

The Allen case seeks to represent a group of owners who have allegedly received late royalty and other payments under Oklahoma statutes. With no admission of liability or wrongdoing, but only to avoid the expense and uncertainty of future litigation, Apache has entered into a settlement agreement in the Allen case to resolve all claims made against it by the class. The settlement agreement is subject to court approval and a full fairness hearing will be held in the coming months. The settlement will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Shareholder and Derivative Lawsuits

On February 23, 2021, a case captioned Plymouth County Retirement System v. Apache Corporation, et al. was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas (Houston Division) against the Company and certain current and former officers. The complaint, which is a shareholder lawsuit styled as a class action, (1) alleges that the Company intentionally used unrealistic assumptions regarding the amount and composition of available oil and gas in Alpine High; (2) alleges that the Company did not have the proper infrastructure in place to safely and/or economically drill and/or transport those resources even if they existed in the amounts purported; (3) alleges that these statements and omissions artificially inflated the value of the Company’s operations in the Permian Basin; and (4) alleges that, as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading. The Company believes that plaintiffs’ claims lack merit and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

On March 16, 2021, a case captioned William Wessels, Derivatively and on behalf of APA Corporation v. John J. Christmann IV et al. was filed in the 334th District Court of Harris County, Texas. The case purports to be a derivative action brought against senior management and Company directors over many of the same allegations included in the Plymouth County Retirement System matter and asserts claims of (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) waste of corporate assets; and (3) unjust enrichment. On March 17, 2022, the trial court granted Defendants’ Special Exceptions and dismissed the claim with prejudice.

Environmental Matters

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had an undiscounted reserve for environmental remediation of approximately $2 million.

On September 11, 2020, the Company received a Notice of Violation and Finding of Violation, and accompanying Clean Air Act Information Request, from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) following site inspections in April 2019 at several of the Company’s oil and natural gas production facilities in Lea and Eddy Counties, New Mexico. The notice and information request involve alleged emissions control and reporting violations. The Company is cooperating with the EPA and has responded to the information request. The EPA has referred the notice for civil enforcement proceedings; however, at this time the Company is unable to reasonably estimate whether such proceedings will result in monetary sanctions and, if so, whether they would be more or less than $100,000, exclusive of interest and costs.

On December 29, 2020, the Company received a Notice of Violation and Opportunity to Confer, and accompanying Clean Air Act Information Request, from the EPA following helicopter flyovers in September 2019 of several of the Company’s oil and natural gas production facilities in Reeves County, Texas. The notice and information request involve alleged emissions control and reporting violations. The Company is cooperating with the EPA and has responded to the information request. The EPA has referred the notice for civil enforcement proceedings; however, at this time the Company is unable to reasonably estimate whether such proceedings will result in monetary sanctions and, if so, whether they would be more or less than $100,000, exclusive of interest and costs.

22

The Company is not aware of any environmental claims existing as of June 30, 2022 that have not been provided for or would otherwise have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. There can be no assurance, however, that current regulatory requirements will not change or past non-compliance with environmental laws will not be discovered on the Company’s properties.

Potential Decommissioning Obligations on Sold Properties

In 2013, Apache sold its Gulf of Mexico (GOM) Shelf operations and properties and its GOM operating subsidiary, GOM Shelf LLC (GOM Shelf) to Fieldwood Energy LLC (Fieldwood). Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Apache received cash consideration of $3.75 billion and Fieldwood assumed the obligation to decommission the properties held by GOM Shelf and the properties acquired from Apache and its other subsidiaries (collectively, the Legacy GOM Assets). In respect of such abandonment obligations, Fieldwood posted letters of credit in favor of Apache (Letters of Credit) and established trust accounts (Trust A and Trust B) of which Apache was a beneficiary and which were funded by two net profits interests (NPIs) depending on future oil prices. On February 14, 2018, Fieldwood filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In connection with the 2018 bankruptcy, Fieldwood confirmed a plan under which Apache agreed, inter alia, to (i) accept bonds in exchange for certain of the Letters of Credit and (ii) amend the Trust A trust agreement and one of the NPIs to consolidate the trusts into a single Trust (Trust A) funded by both remaining NPIs. Currently, Apache holds two bonds (Bonds) and five Letters of Credit to secure Fieldwood’s asset retirement obligations on the Legacy GOM Assets as and when Apache is required to perform or pay for decommissioning any Legacy GOM Asset over the remaining life of the Legacy GOM Assets.

On August 3, 2020, Fieldwood again filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On June 25, 2021, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (Houston Division) entered an order confirming Fieldwood’s bankruptcy plan. On August 27, 2021, Fieldwood’s bankruptcy plan became effective. Pursuant to the plan, the Legacy GOM Assets were separated into a standalone company, which was subsequently merged into GOM Shelf. Under GOM Shelf’s limited liability company agreement, the proceeds of production of the Legacy GOM Assets will be used to fund decommissioning of Legacy GOM Assets.

By letter dated April 5, 2022, replacing two prior letters dated September 8, 2021 and February 22, 2022, respectively, GOM Shelf notified the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) that it was unable to fund the decommissioning obligations that it is currently obligated to perform on certain of the Legacy GOM Assets. As a result, Apache and other current and former owners in these assets have received orders from BSEE to decommission certain of the Legacy GOM Assets included in GOM Shelf’s notification to BSEE. Apache expects to receive such orders on the other Legacy GOM Assets included in GOM Shelf’s notification letter. Further, Apache anticipates that GOM Shelf may send additional such notices to BSEE in the future and that it may receive additional orders from BSEE requiring it to decommission other Legacy GOM Assets.

If Apache incurs costs to decommission any Legacy GOM Asset and GOM Shelf does not reimburse Apache for such costs, then Apache expects to obtain reimbursement from Trust A, the Bonds, and the Letters of Credit until such funds and securities are fully utilized. In addition, after such sources have been exhausted, Apache has agreed to provide a standby loan to GOM Shelf of up to $400 million to perform decommissioning (Standby Loan Agreement), with such standby loan secured by a first and prior lien on the Legacy GOM Assets.

If the combination of GOM Shelf’s net cash flow from its producing properties, the Trust A funds, the Bonds, and the remaining Letters of Credit are insufficient to fully fund decommissioning of any Legacy GOM Assets that Apache may be ordered by BSEE to perform, or if GOM Shelf’s net cash flow from its remaining producing properties after the Trust A funds, Bonds, and Letters of Credit are exhausted is insufficient to repay any loans made by Apache under the Standby Loan Agreement, then Apache may be forced to effectively use its available cash to fund the deficit.

23

As of June 30, 2022, Apache estimates that its potential liability to fund decommissioning of Legacy GOM Assets it may be ordered to perform ranges from $1.2 billion to $1.4 billion on an undiscounted basis. Management does not believe any specific estimate within this range is a better estimate than any other. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a contingent liability of $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2022, representing the estimated costs of decommissioning it may be required to perform on Legacy GOM Assets. Of the total liability recorded, $825 million is reflected under the caption “Decommissioning contingency for sold Gulf of Mexico properties,” and $350 million is reflected under “Other current liabilities” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company has also recorded a $733 million asset, which represents the amount the Company expects to be reimbursed from the Trust A funds, the Bonds, and the Letters of Credit for decommissioning it may be required to perform on Legacy GOM Assets. Of the total asset recorded, $383 million is reflected under the caption “Decommissioning security for sold Gulf of Mexico properties,” and $350 million is reflected under “Other current assets.” Changes in significant assumptions impacting Apache’s estimated liability, including expected decommissioning rig spread rates, lift boat rates, and planned abandonment logistics could result in a liability in excess of the amount accrued. In addition, significant changes in the market price of oil, gas, and NGLs could further impact Apache’s estimate of its contingent liability to decommission Legacy GOM Assets.

12.    REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST — ALTUS

Preferred Units Issuance

On June 12, 2019, Altus Midstream LP issued and sold Preferred Units for an aggregate issue price of $625 million in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (the Closing). Altus Midstream LP received approximately $611 million in cash proceeds from the sale after deducting transaction costs and discounts to certain purchasers.

Classification

Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, at December 31, 2021, the carrying amount of the Preferred Units was recorded as “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest — Altus Preferred Unit Limited Partners” classified as temporary equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet based on the terms of the Preferred Units, including the redemption rights with respect thereto.

Measurement

Altus applied a two-step approach to subsequent measurement of the redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the Preferred Units by first allocating a portion of the net income of Altus Midstream LP in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement. An additional adjustment to the carrying value of the Preferred Unit redeemable noncontrolling interest at each period end was recorded, if applicable. The amount of such adjustment was determined based upon the accreted value method to reflect the passage of time until the Preferred Units were exchangeable at the option of the holder. Pursuant to this method, the net transaction price was accreted using the effective interest method to the Redemption Price calculated at the seventh anniversary of the Closing. The total adjustment was limited to an amount such that the carrying amount of the Preferred Unit redeemable noncontrolling interest at each period end was equal to the greater of (a) the sum of (i) the carrying amount of the Preferred Units, plus (ii) the fair value of the embedded derivative liability and (b) the accreted value of the net transaction price.

13.    CAPITAL STOCK

Upon consummation of the Holding Company Reorganization, each outstanding share of Apache common stock automatically converted into a share of APA common stock on a one-for-one basis. As a result, each stockholder of Apache now owns the same number of shares of APA common stock that such stockholder owned of Apache common stock immediately prior to the Holding Company Reorganization.

Additionally, in connection with the Holding Company Reorganization, Apache transferred to APA, and APA assumed, sponsorship of all of Apache’s stock plans along with all of Apache’s rights and obligations under each plan.

25

Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, the Company used the “if-converted method” to determine the potential dilutive effect of an assumed exchange of the outstanding Preferred Units of Altus Midstream LP for shares of Altus Midstream Company’s common stock. The impact to net income attributable to common stock on an assumed conversion of the Preferred Units was anti-dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The diluted earnings per share calculation excludes options and restricted stock units that were anti-dilutive of 2.0 million and 3.4 million during the second quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 2.7 million and 3.7 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Stock Repurchase Program

During 2018, Apache’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 40 million shares of the Company’s common stock. No shares were purchased under this authorization through December 31, 2020. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase of an additional 40 million shares of the Company’s common stock. Shares may be purchased either in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 7.0 million shares at an average price of $41.60 per share, and as of June 30, 2022, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase up to 34.6 million shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 14.2 million shares at an average price of $38.79 per share The Company is not obligated to acquire any additional shares. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The Company repurchased 6.9 million shares at an average price of $33.88 per share in July 2022, and as of July 31, 2022, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase up to 27.7 million shares. The Company is not obligated to acquire any additional shares.

For the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid $43 million and $9 million, respectively, in dividends on its common stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid $86 million and $19 million, respectively, in dividends on its common stock.

During the third quarter of 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in its quarterly dividend from $0.025 per share to $0.0625 per share and, in the fourth quarter of 2021, approved a further increase to $0.125 per share.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion relates to APA Corporation (APA or the Company) and its consolidated subsidiaries and should be read together with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1—Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as related information set forth in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

On March 1, 2021, Apache Corporation consummated a holding company reorganization (the Holding Company Reorganization), pursuant to which Apache Corporation became a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of APA Corporation, and all of Apache Corporation’s outstanding shares automatically converted into equivalent corresponding shares of APA Corporation. Pursuant to the Holding Company Reorganization, APA Corporation became the successor issuer to Apache Corporation pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act and replaced Apache Corporation as the public company trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker symbol “APA.” The Holding Company Reorganization modernized the Company’s operating and legal structure to more closely align with its growing international presence, making it more consistent with other companies that have subsidiaries operating around the globe.

Overview

APA is an independent energy company that explores for, develops, and produces natural gas, crude oil, and natural gas liquids (NGLs). The Company’s upstream business currently has exploration and production operations in three geographic areas: the U.S., Egypt, and offshore the U.K. in the North Sea (North Sea). APA also has active exploration and appraisal operations ongoing in Suriname, as well as interests in other international locations that may, over time, result in reportable discoveries and development opportunities. Prior to the BCP Business Combination defined below, the Company’s midstream business was operated by Altus Midstream Company (ALTM) through its subsidiary Altus Midstream LP (collectively, Altus). Altus owned, developed, and operated a midstream energy asset network in the Permian Basin of West Texas.

APA believes energy underpins global progress, and the Company aims to be a part of the conversation and solution as society works to meet growing global demand for reliable and affordable energy. Today, the world faces a dual challenge: To meet growing demand for energy and to do so in a cleaner, more sustainable way. APA believes society can accomplish both and strives to meet those challenges while creating value for all its stakeholders.

The global economy and the energy industry have been deeply impacted by the effects of the conflict in Ukraine and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and related governmental actions. Uncertainties in the global supply chain, commodity prices, and financial markets, including the impact of inflation and rising interest rates, continue to impact oil supply and demand. Despite these uncertainties, the Company remains committed to its longer-term objectives: (1) to maintain a balanced asset portfolio, including advancement of ongoing exploration and appraisal activities offshore Suriname; (2) to invest for long-term returns over production growth; and (3) to budget conservatively to generate cash flow in excess of its upstream exploration, appraisal, and development capital program that can be directed to debt reduction, share repurchases, and other return of capital to its stakeholders. The Company continues to aggressively manage its cost structure regardless of the oil price environment and closely monitors hydrocarbon pricing fundamentals to reallocate capital as part of its ongoing planning process. For additional detail on the Company’s forward capital investment outlook, refer to “Capital Resources and Liquidity” below.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company reported net income attributable to common stock of $926 million, or $2.71 per diluted share, compared to net income of $316 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021. Net income for the second quarter of 2022 benefited from higher revenues attributable to a new merged concession agreement in Egypt and higher commodity prices. The increase in realized prices was primarily driven by the effects of global inflation, the conflict in Ukraine on global commodity prices, and uncertainties around spare capacity and energy security globally.

The Company generated $2.4 billion of cash from operating activities during the first six months of 2022, a 48 percent increase from the first six months of 2021, driven by higher oil and gas revenues. Since year-end 2021, the Company has reduced its total outstanding debt and redeemable preferred interests by $2.2 billion and $712 million, respectively, through the deconsolidation of ALTM and the retirement of outstanding notes and debentures. The Company also repurchased 14.2 million shares of its common stock for $552 million during the first six months of 2022. The Company had $282 million of cash on hand at June 30, 2022.

31

The Company remains committed to its capital return framework established in the prior year for equity holders to participate more directly and materially in cash returns.

•The Company believes returning 60 percent of cash flow over capital investment creates a good balance for providing near-term cash returns to shareholders while still recognizing the importance of longer-term balance sheet strengthening.

•The Company’s quarterly dividend was increased in the third quarter of 2021 from $0.025 per share to $0.0625 per share and, in the fourth quarter of 2021 further increased to $0.125 per share.

•Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2021 and through the end of the second quarter of 2022, the Company has repurchased 45.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase up to 34.6 million shares under the Company’s share repurchase programs. Additionally, the Company repurchased an additional 6.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock in July of 2022.

The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to the activity levels set forth in its three-year capital investment program or capital return framework in the context of higher strip oil and gas prices, remaining committed to safe, steady, and efficient operations across all assets and returning free cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.

Operational Highlights

Key operational highlights for the quarter include:

United States

•Daily boe production from the Company’s U.S. assets accounted for 52 percent of its total production during the second quarter of 2022. The Company’s initial delineation program in its Austin Chalk area had mixed results, prompting a pause in planned drilling and completion activity.

•During the quarter the Company entered into a transaction to acquire properties in the Texas Delaware Basin near existing operations, primarily in Loving and Reeves counties. The acquired properties have a combination of producing wells, wells in the process of drilling and completion, and an inventory of undrilled locations. The Company expects production will average 12,000 to 14,000 boe/d for the remaining five months of the year. The purchase price was $505 million, and the transaction closed on July 29 for a total cost of $555 million after including post-effective date adjustments to date.

International

•In Egypt, the Company averaged 12 drilling rigs and drilled 11 new productive wells during the second quarter of 2022. Second quarter 2022 gross equivalent production in the Company’s Egypt assets increased 1 percent from the second quarter of 2021, while net production increased 25 percent, primarily a function of improved cost recovery under the new merged concession agreement ratified at the end of 2021. The Company continues to build and enhance its drilling inventory in Egypt, supplemented with recent seismic acquisitions and new play concept evaluations on both new and existing acreage. The Company continues to increase drilling and workover activity as a result of the merged concession agreement.

•The Company averaged two rigs in the North Sea during the second quarter of 2022. Production was impacted by downtime from maintenance turnaround at Forties during the first half of 2022. North Sea production in the second half of 2022 is expected to benefit from completion of maintenance activities and production commencing on the Garten-3 development well.

•During the second quarter of 2022, the Company announced flow test results from the Krabdagu exploration well on Block 58 offshore Suriname, which encountered approximately 32 meters of net pay in each of the Upper Campanian and Lower Campanian zones. Appraisal drilling will be necessary to confirm additional resource and optimal development well locations. The Maersk Valiant drillship is currently drilling the Dikkop exploration well in the central portion of the block, after which it is expected to continue exploration and appraisal activities in the central portion of Block 58. APA holds a 50 percent working interest in Block 58, with TotalEnergies, the operator, holding a 50 percent working interest.

•The Company is currently drilling the Baja exploration well on Block 53 offshore Suriname, adjacent to Block 58 operations. APA is the operator and holds a 45 percent interest in Block 53.

Second-Quarter 2022 compared to Second-Quarter 2021

Crude Oil Crude oil revenues for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $1.9 billion, a $722 million increase from the comparative 2021 quarter. A 71 percent increase in average realized prices increased second-quarter 2022 oil revenues by $814 million compared to the prior-year quarter, while 2 percent lower average daily production decreased revenues by $92 million. Crude oil revenues accounted for 74 percent of total oil and gas production revenues and 48 percent of worldwide production in the second quarter of 2022. The Company’s worldwide oil production decreased 3.3 Mb/d to 182.8 Mb/d during the second quarter of 2022 from the comparative prior-year period, primarily a result of natural production decline across all assets, offset by an increased net production in Egypt resulting from improved cost recovery under the merged concession agreement ratified at the end of 2021.

Natural Gas Gas revenues for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $433 million, a $207 million increase from the comparative 2021 quarter. An 89 percent increase in average realized prices increased second-quarter 2022 natural gas revenues by $202 million compared to the prior-year quarter, while 2 percent higher average daily production increased revenues by $5 million. Natural gas revenues accounted for 17 percent of total oil and gas production revenues and 37 percent of worldwide production during the second quarter of 2022. The Company’s worldwide natural gas production increased 12.6 MMcf/d to 847 MMcf/d during the second quarter of 2022 from the comparative prior-year period, primarily a result of increased net production in Egypt resulting from improved cost recovery under the merged concession agreement ratified at the end of 2021 and increased production in the North Sea due to lower operational downtime as compared to the second quarter of 2021. These increases were partially offset by natural production decline across all assets and the Company’s divestiture of non-core assets in the Permian Basin during the first quarter of 2022.

NGL NGL revenues for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $229 million, a $82 million increase from the comparative 2021 quarter. A 77 percent increase in average realized prices increased second-quarter 2022 NGL revenues by $114 million compared to the prior-year quarter, while 13 percent lower average daily production decreased revenues by $32 million. NGL revenues accounted for 9 percent of total oil and gas production revenues and 15 percent of worldwide production during the second quarter of 2022. The Company’s worldwide NGL production decreased 9.4 Mb/d to 60.8 Mb/d during the second quarter of 2022 from the comparative prior-year period, primarily a result of natural production decline across all assets and the Company’s divestiture of non-core assets in the Permian Basin during the first quarter of 2022.

35

Year-to-Date 2022 compared to Year-to-Date 2021

Crude Oil Crude oil revenues for the first six months of 2022 totaled $3.6 billion, a $1.4 billion increase from the comparative 2021 period. A 69 percent increase in average realized prices increased oil revenues for the 2022 period by $1.4 billion compared to the prior-year period, while the change in average daily production was insignificant compared to the prior-year period. Crude oil revenues accounted for 74 percent of total oil and gas production revenues and 47 percent of worldwide production for the first six months of 2022. Crude oil prices realized during the first six months of 2022 averaged $106.87 per barrel, compared to $63.06 per barrel in the comparative prior-year period. The Company’s worldwide oil production increased 1.6 Mb/d to 186.3 Mb/d in the first six months of 2022 compared to the prior-year period, primarily a function of improved cost recovery under the merged concession agreement in Egypt ratified at the end of 2021, offset by operational downtime in the North Sea and natural production decline across all assets.

Natural Gas Gas revenues for the first six months of 2022 totaled $813 million, a $275 million increase from the comparative 2021 period. A 45 percent increase in average realized prices increased natural gas revenues for the 2022 period by $241 million compared to the prior-year period, while 5 percent higher average daily production increased revenues by $34 million compared to the prior-year period. Natural gas revenues accounted for 17 percent of total oil and gas production revenues and 37 percent of worldwide production for the first six months of 2022. Natural gas prices realized during the first six months of 2022 averaged $5.16 per Mcf, compared to $3.56 per Mcf in the comparative prior-year period. The Company’s worldwide natural gas production increased 40 MMcf/d to 875 MMcf/d in the first six months of 2022 compared to the prior-year period, primarily a result of increased net production in Egypt resulting from improved cost recovery under the merged concession agreement ratified at the end of 2021, offset by natural production decline across all assets.

NGL NGL revenues for the first six months of 2022 totaled $452 million, a $177 million increase from the comparative 2021 period. A 69 percent increase in average realized prices increased NGL revenues for the 2022 period by $191 million compared to the prior-year period, while 4 percent lower average daily production decreased revenues by $14 million compared to the prior-year period. NGL revenues accounted for 9 percent of total oil and gas production revenues and 16 percent of worldwide production for the first six months of 2022. NGL prices realized during the first six months of 2022 averaged $39.63 per barrel, compared to $23.41 per barrel in the comparative prior-year period. The Company’s worldwide NGL production decreased 2.8 Mb/d to 62.2 Mb/d in the first six months of 2022 compared to the prior-year period, primarily a result of natural production decline across all countries.

Altus Midstream Revenues

Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, Altus Midstream services revenues generated through its fee-based contractual arrangements with the Company totaled $32 million during the second quarter of 2021 and $16 million and $64 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. These revenues were eliminated upon consolidation.

Purchased Oil and Gas Sales

Purchased oil and gas sales represent volumes primarily attributable to transport, fuel, and physical in-basin gas purchases that were sold by the Company to fulfill natural gas takeaway obligations. Sales related to these purchased volumes totaled $522 million and $242 million during the second quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $871 million and $682 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Purchased oil and gas sales were offset by associated purchase costs of $528 million and $262 million during the second quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $879 million and $756 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. Gross purchased oil and gas sales values were higher in the second quarter and first six months of 2022 primarily due to higher average natural gas prices during the 2022 periods.

Lease Operating Expenses (LOE)

LOE increased $48 million and $128 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, from the comparative prior-year periods. On a per-unit basis, LOE increased 20 percent and 22 percent in the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, from the comparative prior-year periods. The increase was driven by overall higher labor costs and operating costs trending with higher oil and gas prices and global inflation. These increases were coupled with higher workover activity in the U.S. and in the North Sea in the second quarter and the first six months of 2022. LOE costs for the first six months of 2022 were also impacted by mark-to-market adjustments for cash-based stock compensation expense resulting from an increase in the Company’s stock price and anticipated achievement of performance and financial objectives as defined in the stock award plans.

Gathering, Processing, and Transmission (GPT)

The Company’s GPT expenses were as follows:

	For the Quarter Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended, June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
	(In millions)
Third-party processing and transmission costs	$	68	$	53	$	134	$	104
Midstream service costs - ALTM	—		32		18		63
Midstream service costs - Kinetik	26		—		36		—

Intersegment eliminations	—		(32)		(18)		(63)
Total Gathering, processing, and transmission	$	94	$	61	$	175	$	119

37

GPT costs increased $33 million and $56 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, from the comparative prior-year periods. Third-party processing and transmission costs increased $15 million and $30 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, from the comparative prior-year periods. The increase in third-party costs for the second quarter and the first six months of 2022 was primarily driven by an increase in average transportation rates during the year. Costs for services provided by ALTM in the first quarter of 2022 and prior to the BCP Business Combination (as defined in the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I, Item 1—Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) totaling $18 million were eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and reflected as “Intersegment eliminations” in the table above. Subsequent to the BCP Business Combination and the Company’s deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, these midstream services continue to be provided by Kinetik Holdings Inc. (Kinetik) but are no longer eliminated. Midstream services provided by Kinetik totaled $26 million and $36 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, and will continue to result in higher GPT costs in future periods as compared to periods preceding the ALTM deconsolidation.

Purchased Oil and Gas Costs

Purchased oil and gas costs totaled $528 million and $879 million during the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, compared to $262 million and $756 million during the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively. Purchased oil and gas costs were offset by associated purchase sales of $522 million and $871 million during the second quarter and the first six months of 2022, respectively, compared to $242 million and $682 million during the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively, as further discussed above.

Taxes Other Than Income

Taxes other than income increased $27 million and $53 million from the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively, primarily from higher severance taxes driven by higher commodity prices as compared to the same prior-year periods.

Exploration Expenses

The Company’s exploration expenses were as follows:

	For the Quarter Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended, June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
	(In millions)
Unproved leasehold impairments	$	2	$	3	$	6	$	21
Dry hole expense	36		6		41		25
Geological and geophysical expense	3		6		18		10
Exploration overhead and other	15		11		33		19
Total Exploration	$	56	$	26	$	98	$	75

Exploration expenses increased $30 million and $23 million from the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively, primarily the result of higher dry hole expenses and exploration overhead, a function of increased exploration activities. These increases were partially offset by lower unproved leasehold impairments driven by improved commodity prices.

General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses

G&A expenses increased $3 million and $76 million from the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by higher cash-based stock compensation expense resulting from an increase in the Company’s stock price and anticipated achievement of performance and financial objectives as defined in the stock award plans. Higher overall wages across the Company also impacted G&A expenses compared to the prior-year period.

Transaction, Reorganization, and Separation (TRS) Costs

TRS costs decreased $1 million and increased $13 million from the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively. The increase in costs during the first six months of 2022 compared to the same prior-year period was primarily a result of transaction costs from the BCP Business Combination.

38

Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization (DD&A)

DD&A expenses on the Company’s oil and gas properties decreased $53 million and $87 million from the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively. The Company’s DD&A rate on its oil and gas properties decreased $1.16 per boe and $1.28 per boe from the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively. The decrease on an absolute basis was driven by lower depletion rates in Egypt, partially offset by higher production volumes.

Financing Costs, Net

The Company’s Financing costs were as follows:

	For the Quarter Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended, June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
	(In millions)
Interest expense	$	79	$	110	$	169	$	222
Amortization of debt issuance costs	5		3		7		5
Capitalized interest	(5)		(2)		(8)		(4)
(Gain) loss on extinguishment of debt	—		(1)		67		(1)
Interest income	(3)		(3)		(7)		(5)
Total Financing costs, net	$	76	$	107	$	228	$	217

Net financing costs decreased $31 million and increased $11 million from the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, respectively. The lower overall interest expense was a result of the reduction of fixed-rate debt during 2021 and the first quarter of 2022. During the first six months of 2022, the lower interest expense was more than offset by a $67 million loss on extinguishment of debt recognized in the first quarter of 2022.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Non-cash impairments on the carrying value of the Company’s oil and gas properties, gains and losses on the sale of assets, statutory tax rate changes, and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company’s effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. The Company’s 2022 year-to-date effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by the gain associated with deconsolidation of Altus, the gain on sale of certain non-core mineral rights in the Delaware Basin, and a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. During the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, the Company’s effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets.

On May 26, 2022, the U.K. Chancellor announced a new tax on the profits of oil and gas companies operating in the U.K. and the U.K. Continental Shelf. On June 21, 2022, the U.K. Government published draft legislation concerning this new tax and on July 14, 2022, the Energy (Oil and Gas) Profits Levy Act 2022 was enacted, receiving Royal Assent. Under the new law, an additional levy is assessed at a 25 percent tax rate and will be effective for the period of May 26, 2022, through December 31, 2025. Under U.S. GAAP, the financial statement impact of new legislation will be recorded in the period of enactment. Therefore, in the third quarter of 2022, the Company expects to record a deferred tax expense of approximately $230 million to $250 million related to the remeasurement of the June 30, 2022 U.K. deferred tax liability.

The Company recorded a full valuation allowance against its U.S. net deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on its U.S. net deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of this allowance.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income or capital taxes in various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s tax reserves are related to tax years that may be subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority. The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2014-2017 tax years and is also under audit in various states and foreign jurisdictions as part of its normal course of business.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Operating cash flows are the Company’s primary source of liquidity. The Company’s short-term and long-term operating cash flows are impacted by highly volatile commodity prices, as well as production costs and sales volumes. Significant changes in commodity prices impact the Company’s revenues, earnings, and cash flows. Significant commodity price decreases potentially impact the Company’s liquidity if costs do not trend with related changes in commodity prices. Historically, costs have trended with commodity prices, albeit on a lag. Sales volumes also impact cash flows; however, they have a less volatile impact in the short term.

The Company’s long-term operating cash flows are dependent on reserve replacement and the level of costs required for ongoing operations. Cash investments are required to fund activity necessary to offset the inherent declines in production and proved crude oil and natural gas reserves. Future success in maintaining and growing reserves and production is highly dependent on the success of the Company’s drilling program and its ability to add reserves economically. Changes in commodity prices also impact estimated quantities of proved reserves.

The Company’s capital investment for the second quarter of 2022 was below its guidance for the period as some activity shifted to later in the year, and the Company expects its full-year estimated upstream capital to be approximately $1.725 billion. This is nearly 8 percent higher than initial guidance, primarily on increased Suriname drilling activity.

The Company believes its available liquidity and capital resource alternatives, combined with proactive measures to adjust its capital budget to reflect volatile commodity prices and anticipated operating cash flows, will be adequate to fund short-term and long-term operations, including the Company’s capital development program, repayment of debt maturities, payment of dividends, share buy-back activity, and amounts that may ultimately be paid in connection with commitments and contingencies.

The Company may also elect to utilize available cash on hand, committed borrowing capacity, access to both debt and equity capital markets, or proceeds from the sale of nonstrategic assets for all other liquidity and capital resource needs. As such, the Company believes it has sufficient resources to satisfy cash requirements over the next twelve months and beyond.

For additional information, refer to Part I, Items 1 and 2—Business and Properties, and Item 1A—Risk Factors, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Sources of Cash and Cash Equivalents

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Operating cash flows are the Company’s primary source of capital and liquidity and are impacted, both in the short term and the long term, by volatile commodity prices. The factors that determine operating cash flows are largely the same as those that affect net earnings, with the exception of non-cash expenses such as DD&A, exploratory dry hole expense, asset impairments, asset retirement obligation (ARO) accretion, and deferred income tax expense.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $786 million from the first six months of 2021, primarily due to higher commodity prices and associated revenues, partially offset by changes in working capital.

For a detailed discussion of commodity prices, production, and operating expenses, refer to “Results of Operations” in this Item 2. For additional detail on the changes in operating assets and liabilities and the non-cash expenses that do not impact net cash provided by operating activities, refer to the statement of consolidated cash flows in the Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Proceeds from Altus Credit Facility, Net The construction of Altus’ gathering and processing assets and the associated equity method pipelines in early 2021 required capital expenditures in excess of Altus’ cash on hand and operational cash flows. During the first six months of 2021, Altus Midstream LP borrowed $33 million under its revolving credit facility to meet this shortfall. Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, there were no additional borrowings under this facility in 2022.

Proceeds from Asset Divestitures The Company received $751 million and $181 million of proceeds from the divestiture of certain non-core assets during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company also received $224 million of cash proceeds from the sale of four million of its shares in Kinetik during the first six months of 2022. For more information regarding the Company’s acquisitions and divestitures, refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Uses of Cash and Cash Equivalents

Additions to Upstream Oil & Gas Property Exploration and development cash expenditures were $741 million and $558 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in capital investment is reflective of the increase in the Company’s capital program. The Company operated an average of 20 drilling rigs during the second quarter of 2022, compared to an average of 10 drilling rigs during the second quarter of 2021.

Leasehold and Property Acquisitions During the first six months of 2022 and 2021, the Company completed leasehold and property acquisitions, primarily in the Permian Basin, for total cash consideration of $26 million and $3 million, respectively.

Payments on Revolving Credit Facilities APA and Apache paid down a net of $267 million and $150 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively, on its revolving credit facilities.

Payments on Fixed-Rate Debt On January 18, 2022, Apache redeemed the outstanding $213 million principal amount of 3.25% senior notes due April 15, 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The redemption was financed by borrowing under Apache’s former revolving credit facility.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache closed cash tender offers for certain outstanding notes issued under its indentures, accepting for purchase $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of notes. Apache paid holders an aggregate $1.2 billion in cash, reflecting principal, premium to par, and accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recognized a $66 million loss on extinguishment of debt, including $11 million of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs in connection with the note purchases.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache purchased in the open market and canceled senior notes issued under its indentures in an aggregate principal amount of $15 million for an aggregate purchase price of $16 million in cash, including accrued interest and broker fees, reflecting a premium to par of an aggregate $1 million. The Company recognized a $1 million loss on these repurchases.

During the first six months of 2021, Apache purchased in the open market and canceled senior notes issued under its indentures in an aggregate principal amount of $22 million for an aggregate purchase price of $20 million in cash, including accrued interest and broker fees, reflecting a discount to par of an aggregate $2 million. The Company recognized a $1 million net gain on extinguishment of debt as part of these transactions.

The Company expects that Apache intends to reduce debt outstanding under its indentures from time to time.

Dividends The Company paid $86 million and $19 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively, for dividends on its common stock. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in its quarterly dividend per share from $0.025 to $0.0625 and, in the fourth quarter of 2021, a further increase to $0.125 per share.

Distributions to Noncontrolling Interest - Egypt Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration and Production Corporation (Sinopec) holds a one-third minority participation interest in the Company’s oil and gas operations in Egypt. The Company paid $159 million and $60 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively, in cash distributions to Sinopec.

Distributions to Altus Preferred Units limited partners Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, Altus Midstream LP paid $11 million and $23 million in cash distributions to its limited partners holding Preferred Units during the first six months of 2022 and 2021. For more information regarding the Preferred Units, refer to Note 12—Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest - Altus in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Treasury Stock Activity, net In the first six months of 2022, the Company repurchased 14.2 million shares at an average price of $38.79 per share totaling $552 million, and as of June 30, 2022, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase 34.6 million shares. No shares were repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Liquidity

The following table presents a summary of the Company’s key financial indicators:

	June 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
	(In millions)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	282	$	302
Total debt - Apache	5,285		6,853
Total debt - Altus	—		657
Total equity (deficit)	1,505		(717)
Available committed borrowing capacity under syndicated credit facilities	2,421		2,426
Available committed borrowing capacity - Altus	—		141

Cash and Cash Equivalents As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $282 million in cash and cash equivalents. The majority of the Company’s cash is invested in highly liquid, investment-grade instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase.

Debt As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $5.3 billion in total debt outstanding, which consisted of notes and debentures of Apache, credit facility borrowings, and finance lease obligations. As of June 30, 2022, current debt included $123 million, carrying value, of Apache’s 2.625% senior notes due January 15, 2023 and $2 million of finance lease obligations.

Committed Credit Facilities On April 29, 2022, the Company entered into two syndicated credit agreements for general corporate purposes that replaced and refinanced Apache’s 2018 syndicated credit agreement (the Former Facility).

•One new agreement is denominated in US dollars (the USD Agreement) and provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility, with aggregate commitments of US$1.8 billion (including a letter of credit subfacility of up to US$750 million, of which US$150 million currently is committed). The Company may increase commitments up to an aggregate US$2.3 billion by adding new lenders or obtaining the consent of any increasing existing lenders. This facility matures in April 2027, subject to the Company’s two, one-year extension options.

•The second new agreement is denominated in pounds sterling (the GBP Agreement) and provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility, with aggregate commitments of £1.5 billion for loans and letters of credit. This facility matures in April 2027, subject to the Company’s two, one-year extension options.

In connection with the Company’s entry into the USD Agreement and the GBP Agreement (each, a New Agreement), Apache terminated US$4.0 billion of commitments under the Former Facility, borrowings then outstanding under the Former Facility were deemed outstanding under the USD Agreement, and letters of credit then outstanding under the Former Facility were deemed outstanding under a New Agreement, depending upon whether denominated in US dollars or pounds sterling. Apache may borrow under the USD Agreement up to an aggregate principal amount of US$300 million outstanding at any given time. Apache has guaranteed obligations under each New Agreement effective until the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness under senior notes and debentures outstanding under Apache’s existing indentures is less than US$1.0 billion.

As of June 30, 2022, there were $275 million of borrowings and a $20 million letter of credit outstanding under the USD Agreement, and an aggregate £748 million in letters of credit outstanding under the GBP Agreement. As of December 31, 2021, there were $542 million of borrowings and an aggregate £748 million and $20 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Former Facility. The letters of credit denominated in pounds were issued to support North Sea decommissioning obligations, the terms of which required such support after Standard & Poor’s reduced Apache’s credit rating from BBB to BB+ on March 26, 2020.

Uncommitted Credit Facilities Apache, from time to time, has and uses uncommitted credit and letter of credit facilities for working capital and credit support purposes. As of June 30, 2022, there were no borrowings and £117 million and $17 million in letters of credit outstanding under these facilities. As of December 31, 2021, there were no borrowings and £117 million and $17 million in letters of credit outstanding under these facilities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements The Company enters into customary agreements in the oil and gas industry for drilling rig commitments, firm transportation agreements, and other obligations that may not be recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. For more information regarding these and other contractual arrangements, please refer to “Contractual Obligations” in Part II, Item 7 of APA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no material changes to the contractual obligations described therein.

Potential Decommissioning Obligations on Sold Properties

The Company’s subsidiaries have potential exposure to future obligations related to divested properties. The Company has divested various leases, wells, and facilities located in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) where the purchasers typically assume all obligations to plug, abandon, and decommission the associated wells, structures, and facilities acquired. One or more of the counterparties in these transactions could, either as a result of the severe decline in oil and natural gas prices or other factors related to the historical or future operations of their respective businesses, face financial problems that may have a significant impact on their solvency and ability to continue as a going concern. If a purchaser of such GOM assets becomes the subject of a case or proceeding under relevant insolvency laws or otherwise fails to perform required abandonment obligations, APA’s subsidiaries could be required to perform such actions under applicable federal laws and regulations. In such event, such subsidiaries may be forced to use available cash to cover the costs of such liabilities and obligations should they arise.

In 2013, Apache sold its GOM Shelf operations and properties and its GOM operating subsidiary, GOM Shelf LLC (GOM Shelf) to Fieldwood Energy LLC (Fieldwood). Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Apache received cash consideration of $3.75 billion and Fieldwood assumed the obligation to decommission the properties held by GOM Shelf and the properties acquired from Apache and its other subsidiaries (collectively, the Legacy GOM Assets). In respect of such abandonment obligations, Fieldwood posted letters of credit in favor of Apache (Letters of Credit) and established trust accounts (Trust A and Trust B) of which Apache was a beneficiary and which were funded by two net profits interests (NPIs) depending on future oil prices. On February 14, 2018, Fieldwood filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In connection with the 2018 bankruptcy, Fieldwood confirmed a plan under which Apache agreed, inter alia, to (i) accept bonds in exchange for certain of the Letters of Credit and (ii) amend the Trust A trust agreement and one of the NPIs to consolidate the trusts into a single Trust (Trust A) funded by both remaining NPIs. Currently, Apache holds two bonds (Bonds) and five Letters of Credit backed by investment-grade counterparties to secure Fieldwood’s asset retirement obligations on the Legacy GOM Assets as and when Apache is required to perform or pay for decommissioning any Legacy GOM Asset over the remaining life of the Legacy GOM Assets.

On August 3, 2020, Fieldwood again filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On June 25, 2021, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (Houston Division) entered an order confirming Fieldwood’s bankruptcy plan. On August 27, 2021, Fieldwood’s bankruptcy plan became effective. Pursuant to the plan, the Legacy GOM Assets were separated into a standalone company, which was subsequently merged into GOM Shelf. Under GOM Shelf’s limited liability company agreement, the proceeds of production of the Legacy GOM Assets will be used to fund decommissioning of Legacy GOM Assets.

By letter dated April 5, 2022, replacing two prior letters dated September 8, 2021 and February 22, 2022, respectively, GOM Shelf notified the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) that it was unable to fund the decommissioning obligations that it is currently required to perform on certain of the Legacy GOM Assets. As a result, Apache and other current and former owners in these assets have received orders from BSEE to decommission certain of the Legacy GOM Assets included in GOM Shelf’s notification to BSEE. Apache expects to receive such orders on the other Legacy GOM Assets included in GOM Shelf’s notification letter. Further, Apache anticipates that GOM Shelf may send additional such notices to BSEE in the future and that it may receive additional orders from BSEE requiring it to decommission other Legacy GOM Assets.

If Apache incurs costs to decommission any Legacy GOM Asset and GOM Shelf does not reimburse Apache for such costs, then Apache expects to obtain reimbursement from Trust A, the Bonds, and the Letters of Credit until such funds and securities are fully utilized. In addition, after such sources have been exhausted, Apache has agreed to provide a standby loan to GOM Shelf of up to $400 million to perform decommissioning (Standby Loan Agreement), with such standby loan secured by a first and prior lien on the Legacy GOM Assets.

If the combination of GOM Shelf’s net cash flow from its producing properties, the Trust A funds, the Bonds, and the remaining Letters of Credit are insufficient to fully fund decommissioning of any Legacy GOM Assets that Apache may be ordered by BSEE to perform, or if GOM Shelf’s net cash flow from its remaining producing properties after the Trust A funds, Bonds, and Letters of Credit are exhausted is insufficient to repay any loans made by Apache under the Standby Loan Agreement, then Apache may be forced to effectively use its available cash to fund the deficit.

44

As of June 30, 2022, Apache estimates that its potential liability to fund decommissioning of Legacy GOM Assets it may be ordered to perform ranges from $1.2 billion to $1.4 billion on an undiscounted basis. Management does not believe any specific estimate within this range is a better estimate than any other. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a contingent liability of $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2022, representing the estimated costs of decommissioning it may be required to perform on Legacy GOM Assets. Of the total liability recorded, $825 million is reflected under the caption “Decommissioning contingency for sold Gulf of Mexico properties,” and $350 million is reflected under “Other current liabilities” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company has also recorded a $733 million asset, which represents the amount the Company expects to be reimbursed from the Trust A funds, the Bonds, and the Letters of Credit for decommissioning it may be required to perform on Legacy GOM Assets. Of the total asset recorded, $383 million is reflected under the caption “Decommissioning security for sold Gulf of Mexico properties,” and $350 million is reflected under “Other current assets.” Changes in significant assumptions impacting Apache’s estimated liability, including expected decommissioning rig spread rates, lift boat rates, and planned abandonment logistics could result in a liability in excess of the amount accrued. In addition, significant changes in the market price of oil, gas, and NGLs could further impact Apache’s estimate of its contingent liability to decommission Legacy GOM Assets.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Company prepares its financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., which require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. The Company identifies certain accounting policies involving estimation as critical accounting estimates based on, among other things, their impact on the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity, as well as the degree of difficulty, subjectivity, and complexity in their deployment. Critical accounting estimates address accounting matters that are inherently uncertain due to unknown future resolution of such matters. Management routinely discusses the development, selection, and disclosure of each critical accounting estimate. For a discussion of the Company’s most critical accounting estimates, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Some of the more significant estimates include reserve estimates, oil and gas exploration costs, offshore decommissioning contingency, long-lived asset impairments, asset retirement obligations, and income taxes.

New Accounting Pronouncements

There were no material changes in recently issued or adopted accounting standards from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Commodity Price Risk

The Company’s revenues, earnings, cash flow, capital investments and, ultimately, future rate of growth are highly dependent on the prices the Company receives for its crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs, which have historically been very volatile because of unpredictable events such as economic growth or retraction, weather, political climate, and global supply and demand. These factors have only been heightened as uncertainties in the commodity and financial markets associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine, global inflation, and other current events continue to impact oil and gas supply and demand. The Company continually monitors its market risk exposure.

The Company’s average crude oil price realizations increased 71 percent from $66.40 per barrel to $113.79 per barrel during the second quarters of 2021 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s average natural gas price realizations increased 89 percent from $2.99 per Mcf to $5.65 per Mcf during the second quarters of 2021 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s average NGL price realizations increased 77 percent from $23.10 per barrel to $40.97 per barrel during the second quarters of 2021 and 2022, respectively. Based on average daily production for the second quarter of 2022, a $1.00 per barrel change in the weighted average realized oil price would have increased or decreased revenues for the quarter by approximately $17 million, a $0.10 per Mcf change in the weighted average realized natural gas price would have increased or decreased revenues for the quarter by approximately $8 million, and a $1.00 per barrel change in the weighted average realized NGL price would have increased or decreased revenues for the quarter by approximately $6 million.

45

The Company periodically enters into derivative positions on a portion of its projected crude oil and natural gas production through a variety of financial and physical arrangements intended to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from changes in commodity prices. Such derivative positions may include the use of futures contracts, swaps, and/or options. The Company does not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had open natural gas derivatives not designated as cash flow hedges in a liability position with a fair value of $54 million. A 10 percent increase in gas prices would increase the liability by approximately $10 million, while a 10 percent decrease in prices would decrease the liability by approximately $10 million. These fair value changes assume volatility based on prevailing market parameters as of June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 4—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for notional volumes and terms with the Company’s derivative contracts.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $5.0 billion, net, in outstanding notes and debentures, all of which was fixed-rate debt, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.25 percent. Although near-term changes in interest rates may affect the fair value of fixed-rate debt, such changes do not expose the Company to the risk of earnings or cash flow loss associated with that debt. The Company is also exposed to interest rate risk related to its interest-bearing cash and cash equivalents balances and amounts outstanding under the indentures and credit facilities. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $282 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately 49 percent of which was invested in money market funds and short-term investments with major financial institutions. As of June 30, 2022, there were $275 million of borrowings outstanding under the Company’s syndicated revolving credit facilities. A change in the interest rate applicable to short-term investments and credit facility borrowings would have an immaterial impact on earnings and cash flows but could impact interest costs associated with future debt issuances or any future borrowings.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The Company’s cash activities relating to certain international operations is based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of cash flows measured in foreign currencies. The Company’s North Sea production is sold under U.S. dollar contracts, while the majority of costs incurred are paid in British pounds. The Company’s Egypt production is primarily sold under U.S. dollar contracts, and the majority of costs incurred are denominated in U.S. dollars. Transactions denominated in British pounds are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents based on the average exchange rates during the period.

Foreign currency gains and losses also arise when monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the end of each month. Foreign currency gains and losses are included as either a component of “Other” under “Revenues and Other” or, as is the case when the Company re-measures its foreign tax liabilities, as a component of the Company’s provision for income tax expense on the statement of consolidated operations. Excluding the impacts of the foreign exchange contracts discussed below, foreign currency net gain or loss of $5 million would result from a 10 percent weakening or strengthening, respectively, in the British pound as of June 30, 2022.

The Company has periodically entered into foreign exchange contracts in order to minimize the impact of fluctuating exchange rates for the British pound on the Company’s operating expenses. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts with a total notional amount of £90 million that are used to reduce its exposure to fluctuating foreign exchange rates for the British pound. A 10 percent strengthening of the British pound against the U.S. dollar would result in a foreign currency net loss associated with these contracts of $1 million, while a 10 percent weakening of the British pound against the U.S. dollar would result in a loss of $18 million as of June 30, 2022.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

John J. Christmann IV, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, in his capacity as principal executive officer, and Stephen J. Riney, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, in his capacity as principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation and as of the date of that evaluation, these officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, providing effective means to ensure that the information the Company is required to disclose under applicable laws and regulations is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

46

The Company periodically reviews the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls, including compliance with various laws and regulations that apply to its operations, both inside and outside the United States. The Company makes modifications to improve the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls, and may take other corrective action, if the Company’s reviews identify deficiencies or weaknesses in its controls.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by APA Corporation (APA or the Company) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods, on a basis consistent with the annual audited financial statements, with the exception of any recently adopted accounting pronouncements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read along with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which contains a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies and other disclosures.

On March 1, 2021, Apache Corporation, the Company’s predecessor registrant, consummated a holding company reorganization (the Holding Company Reorganization), pursuant to which Apache Corporation became a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of APA Corporation, and all of Apache Corporation’s outstanding shares automatically converted into equivalent corresponding shares of APA. Pursuant to the Holding Company Reorganization, APA became the successor issuer to Apache Corporation pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Exchange Act and replaced Apache Corporation as the public company trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker symbol “APA.” The Holding Company Reorganization modernized the Company’s operating and legal structure to more closely align with its growing international presence, making it more consistent with other companies that have subsidiaries operating around the globe.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As of June 30, 2022, the Company's significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The Company’s financial statements for prior periods include reclassifications that were made to conform to the current-year presentation, if applicable.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of APA and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions.

The implementation of the Holding Company Reorganization was accounted for as a merger under common control. APA recognized the assets and liabilities of Apache at carryover basis. The consolidated financial statements of APA present comparative information for prior years on a combined basis, as if both APA and Apache were under common control for all periods presented.

The Company’s undivided interests in oil and gas exploration and production ventures and partnerships are proportionately consolidated. The Company consolidates all other investments in which, either through direct or indirect ownership, it has more than a 50 percent voting interest or controls the financial and operating decisions. Noncontrolling interests represent third-party ownership in the net assets of a consolidated subsidiary of APA and are reflected separately in the Company’s financial statements.

Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration and Production Corporation (Sinopec) owns a one-third minority participation in the Company’s consolidated Egypt oil and gas business as a noncontrolling interest, which is reflected as a separate noncontrolling interest component of equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, prior to the BCP Business Combination defined below, third-party investors owned a minority interest of approximately 21 percent of Altus Midstream Company (ALTM or Altus), which was reflected as a separate noncontrolling interest component of equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. ALTM qualified as a variable interest entity under GAAP, which APA consolidated because a wholly owned subsidiary of APA had a controlling financial interest and was determined to be the primary beneficiary. Additionally, the assets of ALTM could only be used to settle obligations of ALTM. There was no recourse to the Company for ALTM’s liabilities.

On February 22, 2022, ALTM closed a previously announced transaction to combine with privately owned BCP Raptor Holdco LP (BCP and, together with BCP Raptor Holdco GP, LLC, the Contributed Entities) in an all-stock transaction, pursuant to the Contribution Agreement entered into by and among ALTM, Altus Midstream LP, New BCP Raptor Holdco, LLC (the Contributor), and BCP (the BCP Contribution Agreement). Pursuant to the BCP Contribution Agreement, the Contributor contributed all of the equity interests of the Contributed Entities (the Contributed Interests) to Altus Midstream LP, with each Contributed Entity becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Altus Midstream LP (the BCP Business Combination). Upon closing the transaction, the combined entity was renamed Kinetik Holdings Inc. (Kinetik), and the Company determined that it was no longer the primary beneficiary of ALTM. The Company further determined that ALTM no longer qualified as a variable interest entity under GAAP. As a result, the Company deconsolidated ALTM on February 22, 2022. Refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures for further detail.

The stockholders agreement entered into by and among the Company, ALTM, BCP, and other related and affiliated entities provides that the Company, through one of its wholly owned subsidiaries, retains the ability to designate a director to the board of directors of Kinetik for so long as the Company and its affiliates beneficially own 10 percent or more of Kinetik’s outstanding common stock. Based on this board representation, combined with the Company’s stock ownership, management determined it has significant influence over Kinetik. Investments in which the Company has significant influence, but not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. These investments are recorded separately as “Equity method interests” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company elected the fair value option to account for its equity method interest in Kinetik. Refer to Note 6—Equity Method Interests for further detail.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the Company’s financial statements, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known.

Significant estimates with regard to these financial statements include the estimates of fair value for long-lived assets (refer to “Fair Value Measurements” and “Property and Equipment” sections in this Note 1 below), the fair value determination of acquired assets and liabilities (refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures), the fair value of equity method interests (refer to “Equity Method Interests” within this Note 1 below and Note 6—Equity Method Interests), the assessment of asset retirement obligations (refer to Note 8—Asset Retirement Obligation), the estimation of the contingent liability representing Apache’s potential obligation to decommission sold properties in the Gulf of Mexico (refer to Note 11—Commitments and Contingencies), the estimate of income taxes (refer to Note 10—Income Taxes), and the estimate of proved oil and gas reserves and related present value estimates of future net cash flows therefrom.

Fair Value Measurements

Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820-10-35, “Fair Value Measurement” (ASC 820), provides a hierarchy that prioritizes and defines the types of inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs, which consist of unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 inputs consist of quoted prices for similar instruments. Level 3 valuations are derived from inputs that are significant and unobservable; hence, these valuations have the lowest priority.

The valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value include a market approach, an income approach, and a cost approach. A market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. An income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations, including present value techniques, option-pricing models, and the excess earnings method. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Refer to Note 4—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, Note 6—Equity Method Interests, Note 9—Debt and Financing Costs, and Note 12—Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest - Altus for further detail regarding the Company’s fair value measurements recorded on a recurring basis.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded no asset impairments in connection with fair value assessments.

Revenue Recognition

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s contracts with customers during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Payments under all contracts with customers are typically due and received within a short-term period of one year or less after physical delivery of the product or service has been rendered. Receivables from contracts with customers, including receivables for purchased oil and gas sales and net of allowance for credit losses, were $1.8 billion and $1.3 billion as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Oil and gas production revenues from non-customers represent income taxes paid to the Arab Republic of Egypt by Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation on behalf of the Company. Revenue and associated expenses related to such tax volumes are recorded as “Oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids production revenues” and “Current income tax provision,” respectively, in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations.

Refer to Note 14—Business Segment Information for a disaggregation of oil, gas, and natural gas production revenue by product and reporting segment.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” variable market prices for each short-term commodity sale are allocated entirely to each performance obligation as the terms of payment relate specifically to the Company’s efforts to satisfy its obligations. As such, the Company has elected the practical expedients available under the standard to not disclose the aggregate transaction price allocated to unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.

Property and Equipment

The carrying value of the Company’s property and equipment represents the cost incurred to acquire the property and equipment, including capitalized interest, net of any impairments. For business combinations, property and equipment cost is based on the fair values at the acquisition date.

Oil and Gas Property

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas property. Under this method of accounting, exploration costs, such as exploratory geological and geophysical costs, delay rentals, and exploration overhead, are expensed as incurred. All costs related to production, general corporate overhead, and similar activities are expensed as incurred. If an exploratory well provides evidence to justify potential development of reserves, drilling costs associated with the well are initially capitalized, or suspended, pending a determination as to whether a commercially sufficient quantity of proved reserves can be attributed to the area as a result of drilling. This determination may take longer than one year in certain areas depending on, among other things, the amount of hydrocarbons discovered, the outcome of planned geological and engineering studies, the need for additional appraisal drilling activities to determine whether the discovery is sufficient to support an economic development plan, and government sanctioning of development activities in certain international locations. At the end of each quarter, management reviews the status of all suspended exploratory well costs in light of ongoing exploration activities; in particular, whether the Company is making sufficient progress in its ongoing exploration and appraisal efforts or, in the case of discoveries requiring government sanctioning, whether development negotiations are underway and proceeding as planned. If management determines that future appraisal drilling or development activities are unlikely to occur, associated suspended exploratory well costs are expensed.

Acquisition costs of unproved properties are assessed for impairment at least annually and are transferred to proved oil and gas properties to the extent the costs are associated with successful exploration activities. Significant undeveloped leases are assessed individually for impairment based on the Company’s current exploration plans. Unproved oil and gas properties with individually insignificant lease acquisition costs are amortized on a group basis over the average lease term at rates that provide for full amortization of unsuccessful leases upon lease expiration or abandonment. Costs of expired or abandoned leases are charged to exploration expense, while costs of productive leases are transferred to proved oil and gas properties. Costs of maintaining and retaining unproved properties, as well as amortization of individually insignificant leases and impairment of unsuccessful leases, are included in exploration costs in the statement of consolidated operations.

Costs to develop proved reserves, including the costs of all development wells and related equipment used in the production of crude oil and natural gas, are capitalized. Depreciation of the cost of proved oil and gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production (UOP) method. The UOP calculation multiplies the percentage of estimated proved reserves produced each quarter by the carrying value of associated proved oil and gas properties. The reserve base used to calculate depreciation for leasehold acquisition costs and the cost to acquire proved properties is the sum of proved developed reserves and proved undeveloped reserves. The reserve base used to calculate the depreciation for capitalized well costs is the sum of proved developed reserves only. Estimated future dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs, net of salvage values, are included in the depreciable cost.

Oil and gas properties are grouped for depreciation in accordance with ASC 932 “Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas.” The basis for grouping is a reasonable aggregation of properties with a common geological structural feature or stratigraphic condition, such as a reservoir or field.

When circumstances indicate that the carrying value of proved oil and gas properties may not be recoverable, the Company compares unamortized capitalized costs to the expected undiscounted pre-tax future cash flows for the associated assets grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are independent of cash flows of other assets. If the expected undiscounted pre-tax future cash flows, based on the Company’s estimate of future crude oil and natural gas prices, operating costs, anticipated production from proved reserves and other relevant data, are lower than the unamortized capitalized cost, the capitalized cost is reduced to fair value. Fair value is generally estimated using the income approach described in ASC 820. The expected future cash flows used for impairment reviews and related fair value calculations are typically based on judgmental assessments, a Level 3 fair value measurement.

Unproved leasehold impairments are typically recorded as a component of “Exploration” expense in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations. Gains and losses on divestitures of the Company’s oil and gas properties are recognized in the statement of consolidated operations upon closing of the transaction. Refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures for more detail.

Gathering, Processing, and Transmission (GPT) Facilities

GPT facilities are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimation of useful life takes into consideration anticipated production lives from the fields serviced by the GPT assets, whether APA-operated or third party-operated, as well as potential development plans by the Company for undeveloped acreage within, or close to, those fields.

The Company assesses the carrying amount of its GPT facilities whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of these facilities is more than the sum of the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over its fair value.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

2022 Activity

In July 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of oil and gas assets in the Delaware Basin for a purchase price of $505 million. The transaction closed on July 29, 2022 for a total cost of $555 million, after including post-effective date adjustments to date. The acquisition was effective April 1, 2022, and was funded primarily from borrowings on the Company’s revolving credit facility. A deposit of $51 million was paid during the second quarter in association with this transaction.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company completed leasehold and property acquisitions, primarily in the Permian Basin, for total cash consideration of $26 million. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company also completed the sale of non-core assets and leasehold in multiple transactions for total cash proceeds of $7 million, recognizing a gain of approximately $1 million upon closing of these transactions.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company completed a previously announced transaction to sell certain non-core mineral rights in the Delaware Basin. The Company received total cash proceeds of approximately $736 million after certain post-closing adjustments and recognized an associated gain of approximately $563 million. The Company also completed the sale of other non-core assets and leasehold in multiple transactions for total cash proceeds of $8 million. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $1 million upon closing of these transactions during the first quarter of 2022.

The BCP Business Combination was completed on February 22, 2022. As consideration for the contribution of the Contributed Interests, ALTM issued 50 million shares of Class C Common Stock (and Altus Midstream LP issued a corresponding number of common units) to BCP’s unitholders, which are principally funds affiliated with Blackstone and I Squared Capital. ALTM’s stockholders continued to hold their existing shares of Common Stock. As a result of the transaction, the Contributor, or its designees, collectively owned approximately 75 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of ALTM Common Stock. Apache Midstream LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of APA, which owned approximately 79 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of ALTM Common Stock prior to the BCP Business Combination, owned approximately 20 percent of the issued and outstanding shares of ALTM Common Stock after the transaction closed.

As a result of the BCP Business Combination, the Company deconsolidated ALTM on February 22, 2022 and recognized a gain of approximately $609 million that reflects the difference of the Company’s share of ALTM’s deconsolidated balance sheet and the fair value of its approximate 20 percent retained ownership in the combined entity. A summary of components of the gain, including the ALTM balance sheet amounts deconsolidated at the time of close, is included below:

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company sold four million of its shares in Kinetik for cash proceeds of $224 million and recognized a loss of $25 million, including transaction fees. Refer to Note 6—Equity Method Interests for further detail. In connection with this secondary offering, the Company has agreed that within the next 24 months, it will invest a minimum of $100 million of these proceeds for new well drilling and completion activity at the Alpine High play in the Delaware Basin, where Kinetik has exclusive gas and NGL gathering and processing rights.

2021 Activity

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company completed the sale of certain non-core assets in the Permian Basin with a net carrying value of $157 million, for cash proceeds of $178 million and the assumption of asset retirement obligations of $44 million. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $65 million in connection with the sale.

During the first quarter of 2021, the Company completed leasehold and property acquisitions, primarily in the Permian Basin, for total cash consideration of $2 million. The Company also completed the sale of certain non-core assets and leasehold, primarily in the Permian Basin, in multiple transactions for total cash proceeds of $3 million. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $2 million upon closing of these transactions during the first quarter of 2021.

CAPITALIZED EXPLORATORY WELL COSTS

CAPITALIZED EXPLORATORY WELL COSTS

The Company’s capitalized exploratory well costs were $466 million and $321 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase is primarily attributable to additional drilling activity in Suriname and Egypt.

Projects with suspended exploratory well costs capitalized for a period greater than one year since the completion of drilling are those identified by management as exhibiting sufficient quantities of hydrocarbons to justify potential development. Management is actively pursuing efforts to assess whether proved reserves can be attributed to these projects.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Objectives and Strategies

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas prices on the majority of its worldwide production, as well as fluctuations in exchange rates in connection with transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The Company manages the variability in its cash flows by occasionally entering into derivative transactions on a portion of its crude oil and natural gas production and foreign currency transactions. The Company utilizes various types of derivative financial instruments, including forward contracts, futures contracts, swaps, and options, to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from changes in commodity prices or foreign currency values.

Counterparty Risk

The use of derivative instruments exposes the Company to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty. To reduce the concentration of exposure to any individual counterparty, the Company utilizes a diversified group of investment-grade rated counterparties, primarily financial institutions, for its derivative transactions. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had derivative positions with 12 counterparties. The Company monitors counterparty creditworthiness on an ongoing basis; however, it cannot predict sudden changes in counterparties’ creditworthiness. In addition, even if such changes are not sudden, the Company may be limited in its ability to mitigate an increase in counterparty credit risk. Should one of these counterparties not perform, the Company may not realize the benefit of some of its derivative instruments resulting from lower commodity prices or changes in currency exchange rates.

Foreign Currency Derivative Instruments

The Company has open foreign currency costless collar contracts in GBP/USD for £15 million per month for the calendar year 2022 with a weighted average floor and ceiling price of $1.29 and $1.39, respectively.

Embedded Derivatives

Altus Preferred Units Embedded Derivative

The Altus Preferred Units embedded derivative was deconsolidated as of March 31, 2022 as part of the BCP Business Combination. Refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures for discussion of the BCP Business Combination and Note 12—Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest - Altus for a description of the Altus Preferred Units and associated embedded derivative.

Pipeline Capacity Embedded Derivatives

During the fourth quarter of 2019 and first quarter of 2020, the Company entered into agreements to assign a portion of its contracted capacity under an existing transportation agreement to third parties. Embedded in these agreements were arrangements under which the Company received payments calculated based on pricing differentials between Houston Ship Channel and Waha during the calendar years 2020 and 2021. This feature required bifurcation and measurement of the change in market value throughout 2020 and 2021. Unrealized gains and losses in the fair value of this feature were recorded as “Derivative instrument gains (losses), net” under “Revenues and Other” in the statement of consolidated operations, and the balance at the end of December 31, 2021 will be amortized into income over the original tenure of the host contract.

Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The Company seeks to maintain a balance between “first of month” and “gas daily pricing” for its U.S. natural gas portfolio and sales activities in a given month as part of its ordinary course of business. This is typically implemented through a combination of physical and financial contracts that settle monthly. In January 2021, the Company entered into financial contracts that increased its exposure to “gas daily pricing” and reduced its exposure to “first of month” pricing for February 2021. The Company realized a gain of $147 million in connection with these contracts in the first quarter of 2021 as a result of extreme daily gas price volatility across Texas in February resulting from Winter Storm Uri.

EQUITY METHOD INTERESTS

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]

EQUITY METHOD INTERESTS

EQUITY METHOD INTERESTS The Kinetik Class A Common Stock held by the Company is treated as an interest in equity securities measured at fair value. The Company elected the fair value option for measuring its equity method interest in Kinetik based on practical expedience, variances in reporting timelines, and cost-benefit considerations. The fair value of the Company’s interest in Kinetik is determined using observable share prices on a major exchange, a Level 1 fair value measurement. Fair value adjustments and dividends received are recorded as a component of “Other, net” under “Revenues and other” in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations.

The initial interest in Kinetik was measured at fair value based on the Company’s ownership of approximately 12.9 million shares of Kinetik Class A Common stock as of February 22, 2022. In March 2022, the Company sold four million of its shares of Kinetik Class A Common Stock for a loss, including underwriters fees, of $25 million, which was recorded as a component of “Gain on divestitures, net” under “Revenues and other” in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations. Refer to Note 2–Acquisitions and Divestitures for further detail. A fair value adjustment gain of $24 million was recorded during the first quarter of 2022 based on the Company’s remaining 8.9 million shares of Kinetik Class A Common Stock as of March 31, 2022.

During the second quarter of 2022, Kinetik issued a two-for-one split of its Common Stock. Also during the second quarter, the Company received approximately 0.4 million shares of Kinetik’s Class A Common Stock as a paid-in-kind dividend. A fair value adjustment gain of $29 million was recorded during the second quarter based on the Company’s ownership of 18.1 million shares of Kinetik Class A Common Stock on June 30, 2022.

The Company’s ownership represented approximately 13 percent of Kinetik’s outstanding Class A Common Stock, as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022.

The following table presents the activity in the Company’s equity method interest in Kinetik for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

During the three and six months ending June 30, 2022, the Company recorded GPT costs for midstream services provided by Kinetik subsequent to the close of the transaction totaling $26 million and $36 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has recorded accrued GPT costs payable to Kinetik of approximately $8 million.

Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, the Company, through its ownership of Altus, had the following equity method interests in four Permian Basin long-haul pipeline entities, which were accounted for under the equity method of accounting at December 31, 2021. For each of the equity method interests, Altus had the ability to exercise significant influence based on certain governance provisions and its participation in activities and decisions that impact the management and economic performance of the equity method interests.

The following table presents the carrying values of the Company’s debt:

Total debt	5,285		7,510
Current maturities	(125)		(215)
Long-term debt	$	5,160	$	7,295

(1)    The fair values of the Apache notes and debentures were $4.4 billion and $7.1 billion as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company uses a market approach to determine the fair values of its notes and debentures using estimates provided by an independent investment financial data services firm (a Level 2 fair value measurement).

(2)    The carrying value of borrowings on credit facilities approximates fair value because interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates.

As of June 30, 2022, current debt included $123 million carrying value of 2.625% senior notes due January 15, 2023 and $2 million of finance lease obligations. As of December 31, 2021, current debt included $213 million carrying value of 3.25% senior notes due April 15, 2022 and $2 million of finance lease obligations.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache closed cash tender offers for certain outstanding notes issued under its indentures, accepting for purchase $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of notes. Apache paid holders an aggregate $1.2 billion in cash, reflecting principal, premium to par, and accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recognized a $66 million loss on extinguishment of debt, including $11 million of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs in connection with the note purchases.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache purchased in the open market and canceled senior notes issued under its indentures in an aggregate principal amount of $15 million for an aggregate purchase price of $16 million in cash, including accrued interest and broker fees, reflecting a premium to par of $1 million. The Company recognized a $1 million loss on these repurchases.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, Apache redeemed the outstanding $213 million principal amount of 3.25% senior notes due April 15, 2022, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. The redemption was financed by borrowing under Apache’s revolving credit facility.

On April 29, 2022, the Company entered into two syndicated credit agreements for general corporate purposes that replaced and refinanced Apache’s 2018 syndicated credit agreement (the Former Facility).

•One new agreement is denominated in US dollars (the USD Agreement) and provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility, with aggregate commitments of US$1.8 billion (including a letter of credit subfacility of up to US$750 million, of which US$150 million currently is committed). The Company may increase commitments up to an aggregate US$2.3 billion by adding new lenders or obtaining the consent of any increasing existing lenders. This facility matures in April 2027, subject to the Company’s two, one-year extension options.

•The second new agreement is denominated in pounds sterling (the GBP Agreement) and provides for an unsecured five-year revolving credit facility, with aggregate commitments of £1.5 billion for loans and letters of credit. This facility matures in April 2027, subject to the Company’s two, one-year extension options.

In connection with the Company’s entry into the USD Agreement and the GBP Agreement (each, a New Agreement), Apache terminated US$4.0 billion of commitments under the Former Facility, borrowings then outstanding under the Former Facility were deemed outstanding under the USD Agreement, and letters of credit then outstanding under the Former Facility were deemed outstanding under a New Agreement, depending upon whether denominated in US dollars or pounds sterling. Apache may borrow under the USD Agreement up to an aggregate principal amount of US$300 million outstanding at any given time. Apache has guaranteed obligations under each New Agreement effective until the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness under senior notes and debentures outstanding under Apache’s existing indentures is less than US$1.0 billion.

As of June 30, 2022, there were $275 million of borrowings and a $20 million letter of credit outstanding under the USD Agreement, and an aggregate £748 million in letters of credit outstanding under the GBP Agreement. As of December 31, 2021, there were $542 million of borrowings and an aggregate £748 million and $20 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Former Facility. The letters of credit denominated in pounds were issued to support North Sea decommissioning obligations, the terms of which required such support after Standard & Poor’s reduced Apache’s credit rating from BBB to BB+ on March 26, 2020.

Apache, from time to time, has and uses uncommitted credit and letter of credit facilities for working capital and credit support purposes. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities. As of June 30, 2022, there were £117 million and $17 million in letters of credit outstanding under these facilities. As of December 31, 2021, there were £117 million and $17 million in letters of credit outstanding under these facilities.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

The Company estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Non-cash impairments on the carrying value of the Company’s oil and gas properties, gains and losses on the sale of assets, statutory tax rate changes, and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company’s effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. The Company’s 2022 year-to-date effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by the gain associated with deconsolidation of Altus, the gain on sale of certain non-core mineral rights in the Delaware Basin, and a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. During the second quarter and the first six months of 2021, the Company’s effective income tax rate was primarily impacted by a decrease in the amount of valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets.

On May 26, 2022, the U.K. Chancellor announced a new tax on the profits of oil and gas companies operating in the U.K. and the U.K. Continental Shelf. On June 21, 2022, the U.K. Government published draft legislation concerning this new tax and on July 14, 2022, the Energy (Oil and Gas) Profits Levy Act 2022 was enacted, receiving Royal Assent. Under the new law, an additional levy is assessed at a 25 percent tax rate and will be effective for the period of May 26, 2022, through December 31, 2025. Under U.S. GAAP, the financial statement impact of new legislation will be recorded in the period of enactment. Therefore, in the third quarter of 2022, the Company expects to record a deferred tax expense of approximately $230 million to $250 million related to the remeasurement of the June 30, 2022 U.K. deferred tax liability.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income or capital taxes in various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s tax reserves are related to tax years that may be subject to examination by the relevant taxing authority. The Company is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2014-2017 tax years and is also under audit in various states and foreign jurisdictions as part of its normal course of business.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters

The Company is party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, including litigation and governmental and regulatory controls, which also may include controls related to the potential impacts of climate change. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has an accrued liability of approximately $48 million for all legal contingencies that are deemed to be probable of occurring and can be reasonably estimated. The Company’s estimates are based on information known about the matters and its experience in contesting, litigating, and settling similar matters. Although actual amounts could differ from management’s estimate, none of the actions are believed by management to involve future amounts that would be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity after consideration of recorded accruals. For material matters that the Company believes an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, the Company has disclosed the nature of the matter and a range of potential exposure, unless an estimate cannot be made at this time. It is management’s opinion that the loss for any other litigation matters and claims that are reasonably possible to occur will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

For additional information on Legal Matters described below, refer to Note 11—Commitments and Contingencies to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Argentine Environmental Claims

On March 12, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries completed the sale of all of the Company’s subsidiaries’ operations and properties in Argentina to YPF Sociedad Anonima (YPF). As part of that sale, YPF assumed responsibility for all of the past, present, and future litigation in Argentina involving Company subsidiaries, except that Company subsidiaries have agreed to indemnify YPF for certain environmental, tax, and royalty obligations capped at an aggregate of $100 million. The indemnity is subject to specific agreed conditions precedent, thresholds, contingencies, limitations, claim deadlines, loss sharing, and other terms and conditions. On April 11, 2014, YPF provided its first notice of claims pursuant to the indemnity. Company subsidiaries have not paid any amounts under the indemnity but will continue to review and consider claims presented by YPF. Further, Company subsidiaries retain the right to enforce certain Argentina-related indemnification obligations against Pioneer Natural Resources Company (Pioneer) in an amount up to $45 million pursuant to the terms and conditions of stock purchase agreements entered in 2006 between Company subsidiaries and subsidiaries of Pioneer.

Louisiana Restoration 

As more fully described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, Louisiana surface owners often file lawsuits or assert claims against oil and gas companies, including the Company, claiming that operators and working interest owners in the chain of title are liable for environmental damages on the leased premises, including damages measured by the cost of restoration of the leased premises to its original condition, regardless of the value of the underlying property. From time to time, restoration lawsuits and claims are resolved by the Company for amounts that are not material to the Company, while new lawsuits and claims are asserted against the Company. With respect to each of the pending lawsuits and claims, the amount claimed is not currently determinable or is not material. Further, the overall exposure related to these lawsuits and claims is not currently determinable. While adverse judgments against the Company are possible, the Company intends to actively defend these lawsuits and claims.

Starting in November of 2013 and continuing into 2022, several parishes in Louisiana have pending lawsuits against many oil and gas producers, including the Company. These cases were all removed to federal courts in Louisiana. In these cases, the Parishes, as plaintiffs, allege that defendants’ oil and gas exploration, production, and transportation operations in specified fields were conducted in violation of the State and Local Coastal Resources Management Act of 1978, as amended, and applicable regulations, rules, orders, and ordinances promulgated or adopted thereunder by the Parish or the State of Louisiana. Plaintiffs allege that defendants caused substantial damage to land and water bodies located in the coastal zone of Louisiana. Plaintiffs seek, among other things, unspecified damages for alleged violations of applicable law within the coastal zone, the payment of costs necessary to clear, re-vegetate, detoxify, and otherwise restore the subject coastal zone as near as practicable to its original condition, and actual restoration of the coastal zone to its original condition. While adverse judgments against the Company might be possible, the Company intends to vigorously oppose these claims.

Apollo Exploration Lawsuit

In a case captioned Apollo Exploration, LLC, Cogent Exploration, Ltd. Co. & SellmoCo, LLC v. Apache Corporation, Cause No. CV50538 in the 385th Judicial District Court, Midland County, Texas, plaintiffs alleged damages in excess of $200 million (having previously claimed in excess of $1.1 billion) relating to purchase and sale agreements, mineral leases, and area of mutual interest agreements concerning properties located in Hartley, Moore, Potter, and Oldham Counties, Texas. The trial court entered final judgment in favor of the Company, ruling that the plaintiffs take nothing by their claims and awarding the Company its attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in defending the lawsuit. The court of appeals affirmed in part and reversed in part the trial court’s judgment thereby reinstating some of plaintiff’s claims. Further appeal is pending.

Australian Operations Divestiture Dispute

Pursuant to a Sale and Purchase Agreement dated April 9, 2015 (Quadrant SPA), the Company and its subsidiaries divested Australian operations to Quadrant Energy Pty Ltd (Quadrant). Closing occurred on June 5, 2015. In April 2017, the Company filed suit against Quadrant for breach of the Quadrant SPA. In its suit, the Company seeks approximately AUD $80 million. In December 2017, Quadrant filed a defense of equitable set-off to the Company’s claim and a counterclaim seeking approximately AUD $200 million in the aggregate. The Company believes that Quadrant’s claims lack merit and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operation, or liquidity.

Canadian Operations Divestiture Dispute

Pursuant to a Sale and Purchase Agreement dated July 6, 2017 (Paramount SPA), the Company and its subsidiaries divested their remaining Canadian operations to Paramount Resources LTD (Paramount). Closing occurred on August 16, 2017. On September 11, 2019, four ex-employees of Apache Canada LTD on behalf of themselves and individuals employed by Apache Canada LTD on July 6, 2017, filed an Amended Statement of Claim in a matter styled Stephen Flesch et. al. v Apache Corporation et. al., No. 1901-09160 Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta against the Company and others seeking class certification and a finding that the Paramount SPA amounted to a Change of Control of the Company, entitling them to accelerated vesting under the Company’s equity plans. In the suit, the class seeks approximately $60 million USD and punitive damages. The Company believes that Plaintiffs’ claims lack merit and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operation, or liquidity.

California and Delaware Litigation

On July 17, 2017, in three separate actions, San Mateo County, California, Marin County, California, and the City of Imperial Beach, California, all filed suit individually and on behalf of the people of the state of California against over 30 oil and gas companies alleging damages as a result of global warming. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and abatement under various tort theories. On December 20, 2017, in two separate actions, the City of Santa Cruz and Santa Cruz County and in a separate action on January 22, 2018, the City of Richmond, filed similar lawsuits against many of the same defendants. On November 14, 2018, the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen’s Associations, Inc. also filed a similar lawsuit against many of the same defendants. After removal of all such lawsuits to federal court, the district court remanded them back to state court. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals’ affirmance of this remand decision was appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. That appeal was decided by the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in a similar case, BP p.l.c. v. Mayor and City Council of Baltimore. As a result, the California cases were sent back to the 9th Circuit for further appellate review of the decision to remand the cases to state court. The 9th Circuit has since, once again, affirmed the district court’s remand to state court. The defendants are appealing this latest remand decision to the U.S. Supreme Court. Further activity in the cases has been stayed pending further appellate review.

On September 10, 2020, the State of Delaware filed suit, individually and on behalf of the people of the State of Delaware, against over 25 oil and gas companies alleging damages as a result of global warming. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and abatement under various tort theories. After removal of this lawsuit to federal court, the district court remanded it back to state court. The remand order is being appealed to the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals. Further activity in the case has been stayed pending this appellate review.

The Company believes that it is not subject to jurisdiction of the California courts and that claims made against it in the California and Delaware litigation are baseless. The Company intends to challenge jurisdiction in California and to vigorously defend the Delaware lawsuit.

Castex Lawsuit

In a case styled Apache Corporation v. Castex Offshore, Inc., et. al., Cause No. 2015-48580, in the 113th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas, Castex filed claims for alleged damages of approximately $200 million, relating to overspend on the Belle Isle Gas Facility upgrade, and the drilling of five sidetracks on the Potomac #3 well. After a jury trial, a verdict of approximately $60 million, plus fees, costs, and interest was entered against the Company. The Fourteenth Court of Appeals of Texas reversed the judgment, in part, reducing the judgment to approximately $13.5 million, plus fees, costs, and interest against the Company. Further appeal is pending.

Oklahoma Class Action

The Company is a party to a purported class action in Oklahoma styled Albert Steven Allen v. Apache Corporation, Case No. CJ-2019-00219.

The Allen case seeks to represent a group of owners who have allegedly received late royalty and other payments under Oklahoma statutes. With no admission of liability or wrongdoing, but only to avoid the expense and uncertainty of future litigation, Apache has entered into a settlement agreement in the Allen case to resolve all claims made against it by the class. The settlement agreement is subject to court approval and a full fairness hearing will be held in the coming months. The settlement will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Shareholder and Derivative Lawsuits

On February 23, 2021, a case captioned Plymouth County Retirement System v. Apache Corporation, et al. was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas (Houston Division) against the Company and certain current and former officers. The complaint, which is a shareholder lawsuit styled as a class action, (1) alleges that the Company intentionally used unrealistic assumptions regarding the amount and composition of available oil and gas in Alpine High; (2) alleges that the Company did not have the proper infrastructure in place to safely and/or economically drill and/or transport those resources even if they existed in the amounts purported; (3) alleges that these statements and omissions artificially inflated the value of the Company’s operations in the Permian Basin; and (4) alleges that, as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading. The Company believes that plaintiffs’ claims lack merit and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

On March 16, 2021, a case captioned William Wessels, Derivatively and on behalf of APA Corporation v. John J. Christmann IV et al. was filed in the 334th District Court of Harris County, Texas. The case purports to be a derivative action brought against senior management and Company directors over many of the same allegations included in the Plymouth County Retirement System matter and asserts claims of (1) breach of fiduciary duty; (2) waste of corporate assets; and (3) unjust enrichment. On March 17, 2022, the trial court granted Defendants’ Special Exceptions and dismissed the claim with prejudice.

Environmental Matters

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had an undiscounted reserve for environmental remediation of approximately $2 million.

On September 11, 2020, the Company received a Notice of Violation and Finding of Violation, and accompanying Clean Air Act Information Request, from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) following site inspections in April 2019 at several of the Company’s oil and natural gas production facilities in Lea and Eddy Counties, New Mexico. The notice and information request involve alleged emissions control and reporting violations. The Company is cooperating with the EPA and has responded to the information request. The EPA has referred the notice for civil enforcement proceedings; however, at this time the Company is unable to reasonably estimate whether such proceedings will result in monetary sanctions and, if so, whether they would be more or less than $100,000, exclusive of interest and costs.

On December 29, 2020, the Company received a Notice of Violation and Opportunity to Confer, and accompanying Clean Air Act Information Request, from the EPA following helicopter flyovers in September 2019 of several of the Company’s oil and natural gas production facilities in Reeves County, Texas. The notice and information request involve alleged emissions control and reporting violations. The Company is cooperating with the EPA and has responded to the information request. The EPA has referred the notice for civil enforcement proceedings; however, at this time the Company is unable to reasonably estimate whether such proceedings will result in monetary sanctions and, if so, whether they would be more or less than $100,000, exclusive of interest and costs.

The Company is not aware of any environmental claims existing as of June 30, 2022 that have not been provided for or would otherwise have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. There can be no assurance, however, that current regulatory requirements will not change or past non-compliance with environmental laws will not be discovered on the Company’s properties.

Potential Decommissioning Obligations on Sold Properties

In 2013, Apache sold its Gulf of Mexico (GOM) Shelf operations and properties and its GOM operating subsidiary, GOM Shelf LLC (GOM Shelf) to Fieldwood Energy LLC (Fieldwood). Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Apache received cash consideration of $3.75 billion and Fieldwood assumed the obligation to decommission the properties held by GOM Shelf and the properties acquired from Apache and its other subsidiaries (collectively, the Legacy GOM Assets). In respect of such abandonment obligations, Fieldwood posted letters of credit in favor of Apache (Letters of Credit) and established trust accounts (Trust A and Trust B) of which Apache was a beneficiary and which were funded by two net profits interests (NPIs) depending on future oil prices. On February 14, 2018, Fieldwood filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In connection with the 2018 bankruptcy, Fieldwood confirmed a plan under which Apache agreed, inter alia, to (i) accept bonds in exchange for certain of the Letters of Credit and (ii) amend the Trust A trust agreement and one of the NPIs to consolidate the trusts into a single Trust (Trust A) funded by both remaining NPIs. Currently, Apache holds two bonds (Bonds) and five Letters of Credit to secure Fieldwood’s asset retirement obligations on the Legacy GOM Assets as and when Apache is required to perform or pay for decommissioning any Legacy GOM Asset over the remaining life of the Legacy GOM Assets.

On August 3, 2020, Fieldwood again filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On June 25, 2021, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (Houston Division) entered an order confirming Fieldwood’s bankruptcy plan. On August 27, 2021, Fieldwood’s bankruptcy plan became effective. Pursuant to the plan, the Legacy GOM Assets were separated into a standalone company, which was subsequently merged into GOM Shelf. Under GOM Shelf’s limited liability company agreement, the proceeds of production of the Legacy GOM Assets will be used to fund decommissioning of Legacy GOM Assets.

By letter dated April 5, 2022, replacing two prior letters dated September 8, 2021 and February 22, 2022, respectively, GOM Shelf notified the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) that it was unable to fund the decommissioning obligations that it is currently obligated to perform on certain of the Legacy GOM Assets. As a result, Apache and other current and former owners in these assets have received orders from BSEE to decommission certain of the Legacy GOM Assets included in GOM Shelf’s notification to BSEE. Apache expects to receive such orders on the other Legacy GOM Assets included in GOM Shelf’s notification letter. Further, Apache anticipates that GOM Shelf may send additional such notices to BSEE in the future and that it may receive additional orders from BSEE requiring it to decommission other Legacy GOM Assets.

If Apache incurs costs to decommission any Legacy GOM Asset and GOM Shelf does not reimburse Apache for such costs, then Apache expects to obtain reimbursement from Trust A, the Bonds, and the Letters of Credit until such funds and securities are fully utilized. In addition, after such sources have been exhausted, Apache has agreed to provide a standby loan to GOM Shelf of up to $400 million to perform decommissioning (Standby Loan Agreement), with such standby loan secured by a first and prior lien on the Legacy GOM Assets.

If the combination of GOM Shelf’s net cash flow from its producing properties, the Trust A funds, the Bonds, and the remaining Letters of Credit are insufficient to fully fund decommissioning of any Legacy GOM Assets that Apache may be ordered by BSEE to perform, or if GOM Shelf’s net cash flow from its remaining producing properties after the Trust A funds, Bonds, and Letters of Credit are exhausted is insufficient to repay any loans made by Apache under the Standby Loan Agreement, then Apache may be forced to effectively use its available cash to fund the deficit.

As of June 30, 2022, Apache estimates that its potential liability to fund decommissioning of Legacy GOM Assets it may be ordered to perform ranges from $1.2 billion to $1.4 billion on an undiscounted basis. Management does not believe any specific estimate within this range is a better estimate than any other. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a contingent liability of $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2022, representing the estimated costs of decommissioning it may be required to perform on Legacy GOM Assets. Of the total liability recorded, $825 million is reflected under the caption “Decommissioning contingency for sold Gulf of Mexico properties,” and $350 million is reflected under “Other current liabilities” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company has also recorded a $733 million asset, which represents the amount the Company expects to be reimbursed from the Trust A funds, the Bonds, and the Letters of Credit for decommissioning it may be required to perform on Legacy GOM Assets. Of the total asset recorded, $383 million is reflected under the caption “Decommissioning security for sold Gulf of Mexico properties,” and $350 million is reflected under “Other current assets.” Changes in significant assumptions impacting Apache’s estimated liability, including expected decommissioning rig spread rates, lift boat rates, and planned abandonment logistics could result in a liability in excess of the amount accrued. In addition, significant changes in the market price of oil, gas, and NGLs could further impact Apache’s estimate of its contingent liability to decommission Legacy GOM Assets.

REDEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST - ALTUS

Equity [Abstract]

REDEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST - ALTUS

REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST — ALTUS

Preferred Units Issuance

On June 12, 2019, Altus Midstream LP issued and sold Preferred Units for an aggregate issue price of $625 million in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (the Closing). Altus Midstream LP received approximately $611 million in cash proceeds from the sale after deducting transaction costs and discounts to certain purchasers.

Classification

Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, at December 31, 2021, the carrying amount of the Preferred Units was recorded as “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest — Altus Preferred Unit Limited Partners” classified as temporary equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet based on the terms of the Preferred Units, including the redemption rights with respect thereto.

Measurement

Altus applied a two-step approach to subsequent measurement of the redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the Preferred Units by first allocating a portion of the net income of Altus Midstream LP in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement. An additional adjustment to the carrying value of the Preferred Unit redeemable noncontrolling interest at each period end was recorded, if applicable. The amount of such adjustment was determined based upon the accreted value method to reflect the passage of time until the Preferred Units were exchangeable at the option of the holder. Pursuant to this method, the net transaction price was accreted using the effective interest method to the Redemption Price calculated at the seventh anniversary of the Closing. The total adjustment was limited to an amount such that the carrying amount of the Preferred Unit redeemable noncontrolling interest at each period end was equal to the greater of (a) the sum of (i) the carrying amount of the Preferred Units, plus (ii) the fair value of the embedded derivative liability and (b) the accreted value of the net transaction price.

Activity related to the Preferred Units is as follows:

	Units Outstanding	Financial Position

CAPITAL STOCK

Upon consummation of the Holding Company Reorganization, each outstanding share of Apache common stock automatically converted into a share of APA common stock on a one-for-one basis. As a result, each stockholder of Apache now owns the same number of shares of APA common stock that such stockholder owned of Apache common stock immediately prior to the Holding Company Reorganization.

Additionally, in connection with the Holding Company Reorganization, Apache transferred to APA, and APA assumed, sponsorship of all of Apache’s stock plans along with all of Apache’s rights and obligations under each plan.

Prior to the deconsolidation of Altus on February 22, 2022, the Company used the “if-converted method” to determine the potential dilutive effect of an assumed exchange of the outstanding Preferred Units of Altus Midstream LP for shares of Altus Midstream Company’s common stock. The impact to net income attributable to common stock on an assumed conversion of the Preferred Units was anti-dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The diluted earnings per share calculation excludes options and restricted stock units that were anti-dilutive of 2.0 million and 3.4 million during the second quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 2.7 million and 3.7 million during the first six months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of APA and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions.

The implementation of the Holding Company Reorganization was accounted for as a merger under common control. APA recognized the assets and liabilities of Apache at carryover basis. The consolidated financial statements of APA present comparative information for prior years on a combined basis, as if both APA and Apache were under common control for all periods presented.

The Company’s undivided interests in oil and gas exploration and production ventures and partnerships are proportionately consolidated. The Company consolidates all other investments in which, either through direct or indirect ownership, it has more than a 50 percent voting interest or controls the financial and operating decisions. Noncontrolling interests represent third-party ownership in the net assets of a consolidated subsidiary of APA and are reflected separately in the Company’s financial statements.

Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration and Production Corporation (Sinopec) owns a one-third minority participation in the Company’s consolidated Egypt oil and gas business as a noncontrolling interest, which is reflected as a separate noncontrolling interest component of equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, prior to the BCP Business Combination defined below, third-party investors owned a minority interest of approximately 21 percent of Altus Midstream Company (ALTM or Altus), which was reflected as a separate noncontrolling interest component of equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. ALTM qualified as a variable interest entity under GAAP, which APA consolidated because a wholly owned subsidiary of APA had a controlling financial interest and was determined to be the primary beneficiary. Additionally, the assets of ALTM could only be used to settle obligations of ALTM. There was no recourse to the Company for ALTM’s liabilities.

On February 22, 2022, ALTM closed a previously announced transaction to combine with privately owned BCP Raptor Holdco LP (BCP and, together with BCP Raptor Holdco GP, LLC, the Contributed Entities) in an all-stock transaction, pursuant to the Contribution Agreement entered into by and among ALTM, Altus Midstream LP, New BCP Raptor Holdco, LLC (the Contributor), and BCP (the BCP Contribution Agreement). Pursuant to the BCP Contribution Agreement, the Contributor contributed all of the equity interests of the Contributed Entities (the Contributed Interests) to Altus Midstream LP, with each Contributed Entity becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Altus Midstream LP (the BCP Business Combination). Upon closing the transaction, the combined entity was renamed Kinetik Holdings Inc. (Kinetik), and the Company determined that it was no longer the primary beneficiary of ALTM. The Company further determined that ALTM no longer qualified as a variable interest entity under GAAP. As a result, the Company deconsolidated ALTM on February 22, 2022. Refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures for further detail.

The stockholders agreement entered into by and among the Company, ALTM, BCP, and other related and affiliated entities provides that the Company, through one of its wholly owned subsidiaries, retains the ability to designate a director to the board of directors of Kinetik for so long as the Company and its affiliates beneficially own 10 percent or more of Kinetik’s outstanding common stock. Based on this board representation, combined with the Company’s stock ownership, management determined it has significant influence over Kinetik. Investments in which the Company has significant influence, but not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. These investments are recorded separately as “Equity method interests” in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company elected the fair value option to account for its equity method interest in Kinetik. Refer to Note 6—Equity Method Interests for further detail.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the Company’s financial statements, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known.

Significant estimates with regard to these financial statements include the estimates of fair value for long-lived assets (refer to “Fair Value Measurements” and “Property and Equipment” sections in this Note 1 below), the fair value determination of acquired assets and liabilities (refer to Note 2—Acquisitions and Divestitures), the fair value of equity method interests (refer to “Equity Method Interests” within this Note 1 below and Note 6—Equity Method Interests), the assessment of asset retirement obligations (refer to Note 8—Asset Retirement Obligation), the estimation of the contingent liability representing Apache’s potential obligation to decommission sold properties in the Gulf of Mexico (refer to Note 11—Commitments and Contingencies), the estimate of income taxes (refer to Note 10—Income Taxes), and the estimate of proved oil and gas reserves and related present value estimates of future net cash flows therefrom.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on a recurring basis in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820-10-35, “Fair Value Measurement” (ASC 820), provides a hierarchy that prioritizes and defines the types of inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs, which consist of unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 inputs consist of quoted prices for similar instruments. Level 3 valuations are derived from inputs that are significant and unobservable; hence, these valuations have the lowest priority.

The valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value include a market approach, an income approach, and a cost approach. A market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. An income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations, including present value techniques, option-pricing models, and the excess earnings method. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s contracts with customers during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Payments under all contracts with customers are typically due and received within a short-term period of one year or less after physical delivery of the product or service has been rendered.

Oil and gas production revenues from non-customers represent income taxes paid to the Arab Republic of Egypt by Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation on behalf of the Company. Revenue and associated expenses related to such tax volumes are recorded as “Oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids production revenues” and “Current income tax provision,” respectively, in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations.

Refer to Note 14—Business Segment Information for a disaggregation of oil, gas, and natural gas production revenue by product and reporting segment.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” variable market prices for each short-term commodity sale are allocated entirely to each performance obligation as the terms of payment relate specifically to the Company’s efforts to satisfy its obligations. As such, the Company has elected the practical expedients available under the standard to not disclose the aggregate transaction price allocated to unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment The carrying value of the Company’s property and equipment represents the cost incurred to acquire the property and equipment, including capitalized interest, net of any impairments. For business combinations, property and equipment cost is based on the fair values at the acquisition date.

Oil and Gas Property

Oil and Gas Property

The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas property. Under this method of accounting, exploration costs, such as exploratory geological and geophysical costs, delay rentals, and exploration overhead, are expensed as incurred. All costs related to production, general corporate overhead, and similar activities are expensed as incurred. If an exploratory well provides evidence to justify potential development of reserves, drilling costs associated with the well are initially capitalized, or suspended, pending a determination as to whether a commercially sufficient quantity of proved reserves can be attributed to the area as a result of drilling. This determination may take longer than one year in certain areas depending on, among other things, the amount of hydrocarbons discovered, the outcome of planned geological and engineering studies, the need for additional appraisal drilling activities to determine whether the discovery is sufficient to support an economic development plan, and government sanctioning of development activities in certain international locations. At the end of each quarter, management reviews the status of all suspended exploratory well costs in light of ongoing exploration activities; in particular, whether the Company is making sufficient progress in its ongoing exploration and appraisal efforts or, in the case of discoveries requiring government sanctioning, whether development negotiations are underway and proceeding as planned. If management determines that future appraisal drilling or development activities are unlikely to occur, associated suspended exploratory well costs are expensed.

Acquisition costs of unproved properties are assessed for impairment at least annually and are transferred to proved oil and gas properties to the extent the costs are associated with successful exploration activities. Significant undeveloped leases are assessed individually for impairment based on the Company’s current exploration plans. Unproved oil and gas properties with individually insignificant lease acquisition costs are amortized on a group basis over the average lease term at rates that provide for full amortization of unsuccessful leases upon lease expiration or abandonment. Costs of expired or abandoned leases are charged to exploration expense, while costs of productive leases are transferred to proved oil and gas properties. Costs of maintaining and retaining unproved properties, as well as amortization of individually insignificant leases and impairment of unsuccessful leases, are included in exploration costs in the statement of consolidated operations.

Costs to develop proved reserves, including the costs of all development wells and related equipment used in the production of crude oil and natural gas, are capitalized. Depreciation of the cost of proved oil and gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production (UOP) method. The UOP calculation multiplies the percentage of estimated proved reserves produced each quarter by the carrying value of associated proved oil and gas properties. The reserve base used to calculate depreciation for leasehold acquisition costs and the cost to acquire proved properties is the sum of proved developed reserves and proved undeveloped reserves. The reserve base used to calculate the depreciation for capitalized well costs is the sum of proved developed reserves only. Estimated future dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs, net of salvage values, are included in the depreciable cost.

Oil and gas properties are grouped for depreciation in accordance with ASC 932 “Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas.” The basis for grouping is a reasonable aggregation of properties with a common geological structural feature or stratigraphic condition, such as a reservoir or field.

When circumstances indicate that the carrying value of proved oil and gas properties may not be recoverable, the Company compares unamortized capitalized costs to the expected undiscounted pre-tax future cash flows for the associated assets grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are independent of cash flows of other assets. If the expected undiscounted pre-tax future cash flows, based on the Company’s estimate of future crude oil and natural gas prices, operating costs, anticipated production from proved reserves and other relevant data, are lower than the unamortized capitalized cost, the capitalized cost is reduced to fair value. Fair value is generally estimated using the income approach described in ASC 820. The expected future cash flows used for impairment reviews and related fair value calculations are typically based on judgmental assessments, a Level 3 fair value measurement.

Unproved leasehold impairments are typically recorded as a component of “Exploration” expense in the Company’s statement of consolidated operations. Gains and losses on divestitures of the Company’s oil and gas properties are recognized in the statement of consolidated operations upon closing of the transaction.

Gathering, Processing, and Transmission Facilities

Gathering, Processing, and Transmission (GPT) Facilities

GPT facilities are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimation of useful life takes into consideration anticipated production lives from the fields serviced by the GPT assets, whether APA-operated or third party-operated, as well as potential development plans by the Company for undeveloped acreage within, or close to, those fields.

The Company assesses the carrying amount of its GPT facilities whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of these facilities is more than the sum of the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over its fair value.
