Organization and Nature of Business

Organization and Nature of Business

Mach Natural Resources LP (the “Company”) is a Delaware limited partnership that was formed for the purpose of effectuating an initial public offering (the “Offering”) that closed in October 2023. The Company’s common units representing limited partnership interests (the “common units”) are listed on The New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “MNR.” The Company is an independent upstream oil and gas company focused on the acquisition, development and production of oil, natural gas and NGL reserves in the Anadarko Basin region of Western Oklahoma, Southern Kansas and the panhandle of Texas.

Following the Offering and Corporate Reorganization (as defined below), the Company became a holding partnership whose sole material asset consists of membership interests in Mach Natural Resources Intermediate LLC (“Intermediate”). Intermediate wholly owns Mach Natural Resources Holdco LLC (“Holdco”), and Holdco wholly owns each of the Company’s three operating subsidiaries, BCE-Mach LLC (“BCE-Mach”), BCE-Mach II LLC (“BCE-Mach II”) and BCE-Mach III LLC (collectively, the “Mach Companies”). BCE-Mach III LLC (the “Predecessor”) is the accounting predecessor to the Company for all periods prior to the Offering as discussed herein.

The Company’s operations are governed by the provisions of its partnership agreement, executed by its general partner, Mach Natural Resources GP LLC (the “General Partner”) and the limited partners. The General Partner is managed and operated by the board of directors and executive officers of the General Partner. The members of the board of directors of the General Partner are appointed by the members of the General Partner, BCE-Mach Aggregator and Mach Resources in proportion to their respective limited partnership ownership in the Company.

Management has evaluated how the Company is organized and managed and identified a single reportable segment, which is the exploration and production of oil, natural gas and NGLs. Management considers the Company’s gathering, processing and marketing functions as ancillary to its oil and gas producing activities. All of the Company’s operations and assets are located in the United States, and its revenues are attributable to United States customers.

Corporate Reorganization

On October 25, 2023, the Company underwent a corporate reorganization (the “Corporate Reorganization”) whereby (a) the existing owners who directly held membership interests in the Mach Companies prior to the Offering (the “Existing Owners”) contributed 100% of their membership interests in the Mach Companies for a pro rata allocation of 100% of the limited partner interests in the Company to effectuate a merger of such entities into the Company with BCE-Mach III determined as the accounting acquirer, (b) the Company contributed 100% of its membership interests in the Mach Companies to Intermediate in exchange for 100% of the membership interests in Intermediate, and (c) Intermediate contributed 100% of its membership interests in the Mach Companies to Holdco in exchange for 100% of the membership interests in Holdco.

Initial Public Offering

On October 27, 2023, the Company completed the Offering of 10,000,000 common units at a price of $19.00 per unit to the public. The sale of Company’s common units resulted in gross proceeds of $190.0 million to the Company and net proceeds of $168.5 million, after deducting underwriting fees and offering expenses. The material terms of the Offering are described in the Company’s final prospectus, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 26, 2023, pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The Company used $102.2 million of the proceeds to pay down the existing credit facilities of its operating subsidiaries (the “Pre-IPO Credit Facilities”) and $66.3 million of the proceeds to purchase 3,750,000 common units from the existing common unit owners on a pro rata basis. After giving effect to the Offering and the transactions related thereto, the Company had 95,000,000 common units issued and outstanding.
