Acquisitions

Cimarex Energy Co.

On October 1, 2021, the Company completed a merger transaction (the “Merger”) with Cimarex Energy Co. (“Cimarex”). Cimarex is an oil and gas exploration and production company with operations in Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma.

Purchase Price Allocation

The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets, liabilities and mezzanine equity of Cimarex and its subsidiaries were recorded at their respective fair values as of the effective date of the Merger. The purchase price allocation was based on preliminary estimates and assumptions, which are subject to change for up to one year after October 1, 2021, the effective date of the Merger, as the Company finalizes the valuations of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the related tax balances as of the effective date of the Merger. Determining the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Cimarex requires judgment and certain assumptions to be made. The most significant fair value estimates related to the valuation of Cimarex's oil and gas properties and certain other fixed assets, long-term debt and derivative instruments. Oil and gas properties and certain fixed assets were valued using an income and market approach utilizing Level 3 inputs including internally generated production and development data and estimated price and cost estimates. Long-term debt was valued using a market approach utilizing Level 1 inputs including observable market prices on the underlying debt instruments. Derivative liabilities were based on Level 3 inputs consistent with the Company’s other commodity derivative instruments. There were no adjustments to the purchase price allocation during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
