15. Condensed consolidating financial statements

As of March 31, 2012, the majority of EXCO's subsidiaries are guarantors under the EXCO Resources Credit Agreement and the indenture governing the 2018 Notes. All of our non-guarantor subsidiaries are considered unrestricted subsidiaries under the indenture governing the 2018 Notes, with the exception of our equity investment in OPCO. As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2012:

 

   

Our equity method investment in OPCO represented $2.1 million of equity method investments and contributed $0.4 million of equity method losses; and

 

   

Our interests in jointly held entities with BG Group, with the exception of OPCO, represented $293.0 million of equity method investments, or 8.4% of our total assets and contributed $7.5 million of equity method losses.

Set forth below are condensed consolidating financial statements of EXCO, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries. The 2018 Notes, which were issued by EXCO Resources, Inc., are jointly and severally guaranteed by some of our subsidiaries (referred to as Guarantor Subsidiaries). For purposes of this footnote, EXCO Resources, Inc. is referred to as Resources to distinguish it from the Guarantor Subsidiaries. Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Resources and the guarantees are unconditional as it relates to the assets of the Guarantor Subsidiaries.

The following financial information presents consolidating financial statements, which include:

 

   

Resources;

 

   

the Guarantor Subsidiaries on a combined basis;

 

   

the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries;

 

   

elimination entries necessary to consolidate Resources, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries; and

 

   

EXCO on a consolidated basis.

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The financial information for the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries is presented on a combined basis. The elimination entries primarily eliminate investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.
