5. Segment Information

We have two reportable operating segments. Both of these segments are organized and managed based upon geographic location and the nature of the products and services offered.

•United States (“U.S.”) – explores for, produces and markets crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas in the United States; and

•International (“Int’l”) – explores for, produces and markets crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas outside of the United States as well as produces and markets products manufactured from natural gas, such as LNG and methanol, in Equatorial Guinea (“E.G.”)

Segment income represents income that excludes certain items not allocated to our operating segments, net of income taxes. A portion of our corporate and operations general and administrative support costs are not allocated to the operating segments. These unallocated costs primarily consist of employment costs (including pension effects), professional services, facilities and other costs associated with corporate and operations support activities. Additionally, items which affect comparability such as: gains or losses on dispositions, impairments of proved and certain unproved properties, dry wells, changes in our valuation allowance, unrealized gains or losses on commodity and interest rate derivative instruments, effects of pension settlements and curtailments, expensed transaction costs for business combinations or other items (as determined by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”)) are not allocated to operating segments.

6. Income Taxes

Effective Tax Rate

The effective income tax rate is influenced by a variety of factors including the geographic and functional sources of income and the relative magnitude of these sources of income. The difference between the total provision and the sum of the amounts allocated to segments is reported in the “Not Allocated to Segments” column of the tables in Note 5.

For the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2024 and 2023, ~~and 2022,~~ our effective income tax rates were as follows:

Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Effective income tax rate 21 % 22 % 21 % (12) %

•~~2022~~— Our effective income tax rate was different from our U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, due to the first quarter 2022 release of the valuation allowance on certain U.S. and state deferred tax assets resulting in a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $685 million.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Effective income tax rate	22	%	21	%

In August 2022, the President signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) into law. The IRA enacted various income tax provisions, including a 15% corporate book minimum tax. The corporate book minimum tax, which became effective on January 1, 2023, applies to corporations with an average annual adjusted financial statement income that exceeds $1 billion for the preceding three years. Under current law and guidance, we ~~do not anticipate being~~are subject to the corporate book minimum tax in ~~2023.~~2024. The U.S. Department of the Treasury isand the IRS are expected to ~~publish~~release further regulations and interpretive guidance ~~and regulations that will be relevant to scoping considerations and~~implementing the ~~calculation of minimum income tax liabilities.~~legislation contained in the IRA. As this guidance is issued, we will continue to evaluate and assess the impact the IRA may have on our current and future period income taxes. We have made an accounting policy election to consider the effects of the corporate book minimum tax on the realizability of our deferred tax assets, carryforwards and tax credits as a period cost when they arise.

7. Debt

Term Loan Facility

In November 2022, we entered into a term credit agreement, which provides for a two-year $1.5 billion term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility”) and we borrowed the full amount thereunder in December 2022. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we repaid $300 million of outstanding borrowings. On March 28, 2024, we fully repaid the $1.2 billion outstanding balance under our Term Loan Facility by utilizing the net proceeds received from the senior notes issued during the first quarter of 2024 (see Debt Issuance below).

Revolving Credit ~~Losses~~Facility

We have an unsecured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) with a borrowing capacity of $2.6 billion. We have the option to increase the commitment amount by up to an additional $939 million, subject to the consent of any increasing lenders. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on July 28, 2027. At March 31, 2024, we had an immaterial outstanding balance under our Revolving Credit Facility.

The ~~majority~~Revolving Credit Facility includes a covenant requiring our total debt to total capitalization ratio not to exceed 65% as of our receivables are from purchasers of commodities or joint interest owners in properties we operate, both of which are recorded at estimated or invoiced amounts and do not bear interest. The majority of these receivables have payment terms of 30 days or less. At the ~~end~~last day of each ~~reporting period,~~fiscal quarter. In the event of a default, the lenders holding more than half of the commitments may terminate the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility and require the immediate repayment of all outstanding borrowings and the cash collateralization of all outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2024, we ~~assess~~were in compliance with this covenant with a ratio of 25%.

Commercial Paper Program

Pursuant to our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured notes in a maximum aggregate face amount of $2.5 billion outstanding at any time, with maturities up to 365 days from the ~~collectability~~date of issuance. Our $2.5 billion commercial paper program is backed by our ~~receivables and estimate the expected credit losses using historical data, current market conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts~~$2.6 billion Revolving Credit Facility.

We utilize our commercial paper program to fund various short-term working capital requirements. As of ~~future economic conditions and other data as deemed appropriate.~~

~~Changes in the allowance for credit losses were as follows:~~

(In millions) June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Beginning balance as of January 1 $ 10 $ 15
Current period provision 4 (3)
Current period write offs (1) (2)
Recoveries of amounts previously reserved (1) —
Ending balance $ 12 $ 10
March 31, 2024, we had $450 million of outstanding commercial paper maturing at various dates with a weighted average interest rate of 5.90%.

~~8. Inventories~~Debt issuance

~~Crude oil~~On March 28, 2024, we completed a public offering of $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes consisting of $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.30% senior notes due April 1, 2029 (“2029 Notes”) and ~~natural gas liquids are recorded~~$600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.70% senior notes due April 1, 2034 (“2034 Notes”). Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually beginning October 1, 2024. We may redeem some or all of the senior notes at ~~weighted average cost and carried~~any time at the ~~lower~~applicable redemption price, plus accrued interest, if any. Net proceeds received totaled $1.2 billion. Debt issuance costs of cost or net realizable value. Supplies and other items consist principally of tubular goods and equipment which are valued at weighted average cost and reviewed periodically for obsolescence or impairment when market conditions indicate.

Net property, plant and equipment $ 17,524 $ 17,377

~~As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had $10~~$12 million and $20 million, respectively, of exploratory well costs capitalized greater than one year related to suspended wells. Management believes these wells exhibit sufficient quantities of hydrocarbons to justify potential development. All of the suspended wells require completion activities in order to classify the reserves as proved. The decrease during the six months ended June 30, 2023 included a reduction in suspended well costs as we recorded $10 million of dry well expense associated with drilled and uncompleted exploratory wells in Permian.

~~10. Asset Retirement Obligations~~

Asset retirement obligations primarily consist of estimated costs to remove, dismantle and restore land or seabed at the end of oil and gas production operations. Changes in asset retirement obligations were as follows:

June 30,
(In millions) 2023 2022
Beginning balance as of January 1 $ 340 $ 316

~~Operating Leases~~

We enter into various lease agreements to support our operations including drilling rigs, well fracturing equipment, compressors, buildings, vessels, vehicles and miscellaneous field equipment. We primarily act as a lessee in these transactions and the majority of our existing leases are classified as either short-term or long-term operating leases.

~~Finance Leases~~

In 2018, we signed an agreement with an owner/lessor to construct and lease a new build-to-suit office building in Houston, Texas. The initial lease term is five years and commenced in late September 2021 after the new Houston office was ready for occupancy. In March 2022, we made our first cash lease payment. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we have made cash lease payments totaling approximately $10 million and $2 million, respectively. At the end of the initial lease term, we can negotiate to extend the lease term for an additional five years, subject to the approval of the participants; purchase the property subject to certain terms and conditions; or remarket the property to an unrelated third party. The lease contains a residual value guarantee of 100% of the total acquisition and construction costs.

~~Lessor~~

~~Our wholly owned subsidiary, Marathon E.G. Production Limited, is a lessor for residential housing in E.G., which is occupied by EGHoldings, a related party equity method investee~~ – ~~see~~ ~~Note 20. The lease was classified~~were recorded as an operating lease and expires in 2024, with a lessee option to extend through 2034. Lease payments are fixed for the entire duration of the agreement at approximately $6 million per year.

Commodity Derivatives

We have entered into crude oil ~~and natural gas~~ derivatives indexed to their respective indices as noted in the table below, related to a portion of our forecasted U.S. sales through ~~2023.~~2024. These derivatives are three-way collars. Three-way collars consist of a sold call (ceiling), a purchased put (floor) and a sold put. The ceiling price is the maximum we will receive for the contract volumes; the floor is the minimum price we will receive, unless the market price falls below the sold put strike price. In this case, we receive the NYMEX WTI price ~~or the Henry Hub price~~ plus the difference between the floor and the sold put price. These crude oil ~~and natural gas~~ derivatives were not designated as hedges.

During the second quarter and first six months of 2022, net cash paid for settled derivative positions was $61 million and $89 million, respectively.~~$10 million.

~~Interest Rate Swaps~~

During 2020, we entered into forward starting interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $350 million to hedge variations in cash flows arising from fluctuations in the LIBOR benchmark interest rate related to forecasted interest payments of a future debt issuance in 2025. The expected proceeds of the future debt issuance were intended to refinance our $900 million 3.85% Senior Notes due 2025 (“2025 Notes”). In September 2021, we fully redeemed these 2025 Notes. In March 2022, we closed these positions and settled the interest rate swaps for proceeds of $44 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a cumulative $17 million gain within net interest and other within our consolidated statements of income related to these swaps.

Derivatives Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

During 2019, we entered into forward starting interest rate swaps with a maturity date of September 9, 2026 to hedge variations in cash flows related to the interest rate component of future lease payments of our Houston office. As of ~~June 30, 2023~~March 31, 2024 and December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the notional amount of open interest rate swaps for the Houston office was $295 million. The weighted average secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) for the swaps was 1.43% as of both ~~June 30, 2023~~March 31, 2024 and December 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

The Houston office lease commenced in September 2021, however, our first cash lease payment for February 2022 rent was paid in March 2022. The first settlement date for the interest rate swaps was in January 2022. During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, net cash received for the settled interest rate swap positions was $5$3 million. As of ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we expect to reclassify a ~~$11~~$10 million gain from accumulated other comprehensive income into our consolidated statements of income over the next twelve months. ~~See~~ ~~Note 11~~ ~~for further details regarding Houston office lease.~~

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

As of ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, our commodity derivatives include three-way collars. These instruments are measured at fair value using either a Black-Scholes or a modified Black-Scholes Model. For three-way collars, inputs to the models include commodity prices and implied volatility and are categorized as Level 2 because predominantly all assumptions and inputs are observable in active markets throughout the term of the instruments.

The forward starting interest rate swaps are measured at fair value with a market approach using actionable broker quotes, which are Level 2 inputs. See Note 12 8 for details on the forward starting interest rate swaps.

Fair Values – Financial Instruments

Our current assets and liabilities include financial instruments, the most significant of which are receivables, commercial paper borrowings, the current portion of our long-term debt and payables. We believe the carrying values of our receivables, commercial paper borrowings and payables approximate fair value. Our fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including (1) the short-term duration of the instruments, (2) our credit rating and (3) our historical incurrence of and expected future insignificant bad debt expense, which includes an evaluation of counterparty credit risk.

The following table summarizes financial instruments, excluding receivables, commercial paper borrowings, payables and derivative financial instruments, and their reported fair values by individual balance sheet line item at ~~June 30, 2023~~March 31, 2024 and December 31, ~~2022.~~2023:

Fair values of our financial assets included in other noncurrent assets, and of our financial liabilities included in other current liabilities and deferred credits and other liabilities, are measured using an income approach and most inputs are internally generated, which results in a Level 3 classification. Estimated future cash flows are discounted using a rate deemed appropriate to obtain the fair value.

Our fixed rate debt instruments are publicly traded. The fair value of our fixed rate debt is measured using a market approach, based upon quotes from major financial institutions, which are Level 2 inputs. Our floating rate debt is non-public and consists of borrowings under our ~~Term Loan Facility and~~ Revolving Credit Facility. The fair value of our floating rate debt approximates the carrying value and is estimated based on observable market-based inputs, which results in a Level 2 classification.

In November 2022, we entered into a term credit agreement, which provides for a two-year $1.5 billion term loan facility (“Term Loan Facility”) and we borrowed the full amount thereunder in December 2022. Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility can be prepaid without penalty. As of ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had ~~$1.5 billion in borrowings under our Term Loan Facility. The second quarter weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Term Loan Facility was 6.84%.~~

The Term Loan Facility includes a covenant requiring our total debt to total capitalization ratio not to exceed 65% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. In the event of a default, the lenders holding moreno exploratory well costs capitalized greater than half of the commitments may terminate all of the commitments under the Term Loan Facility and require the immediate repayment of all outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan Facility. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with this covenant with a ratio of 26%.

~~Revolving Credit Facility~~

As of June 30, 2023, we had borrowings of $450 million against our $2.5 billion unsecured Revolving Credit Facility. The second quarter weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility was 6.96%.

The Revolving Credit Facility includes a covenant requiring our total debt to total capitalization ratio not to exceed 65% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. In the event of a default, the lenders holding more than half of the commitments may terminate the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility and require the immediate repayment of all outstanding borrowings and the cash collateralization of all outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with this covenant with a ratio of 26%.

~~Commercial Paper Program~~

During the second quarter of 2023, we obtained ratings for our commercial paper from Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch. Pursuant to our U.S. commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured notes in a maximum aggregate face amount of $2.5 billion outstanding at any time, with maturities up to 365 days from the date of issuance. Our $2.5 billion U.S. commercial paper program is backed by our $2.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility and can be used to fund short-term working capital requirements. We did not issue commercial paper during the second quarter of 2023.

~~Debt Redemption~~

~~In March 2023, we repaid the $70 million 8.5% Senior Notes on the maturity date.~~

~~Long-term debt~~

~~At June 30, 2023, we had $5.9 billion of total long-term debt outstanding. Long-term debt due within~~ one year ~~consists of $131 million of 8.125% Senior Notes, which were repaid in connection with their maturity on July 17, 2023. Refer~~related to ~~our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a listing of our long-term debt maturities.~~

~~Debt Remarketing~~

On April 3, 2023, we closed a $200 million remarketing to investors of sub-series 2017A-1 bonds that are part of the $1 billion St. John the Baptist Parish, State of Louisiana revenue refunding bonds Series 2017. The bonds are subject to an interest rate of 4.05% and a mandatory purchase date of July 1, 2026.

~~21.~~ Commitments and Contingencies

Various groups, including the State of North Dakota and ~~three~~the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation or MHA Nation, also known as the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Indian ~~tribes~~Reservation (the “Three Affiliated Tribes”) represented by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (the “BIA”), have been involved in a dispute regarding the ownership of certain lands underlying the Missouri River and Little Missouri River (the “Disputed Land”) from which we currently produce. As a result, as of ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we have a ~~$165~~$123 million current liability in suspended royalty and working interest revenue, including interest, of which ~~$144~~$105 million was included within accounts payable and ~~$21~~$18 million related to accrued interest ~~and~~ was included within other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, we have a long-term receivable of ~~$26~~$27 million for capital and expenses. The United States Department of the Interior (“DOI”) has addressed the United States’ position with respect to this dispute several times in recent years with conflicting opinions. In January 2017, the DOI issued an opinion that the Disputed Land is held in trust for the Three Affiliated Tribes, then in June 2018 and May 2020 the DOI issued opinions concluding that the State of North Dakota held title to the Disputed Land. Most recently, on February 4, 2022, the DOI issued an opinion (“M-Opinion”) concluding ~~the DOI’s position~~ that the Disputed Land is held in trust for the Three Affiliated Tribes. While the ~~latest~~ M-Opinion is binding on all agencies within the DOI, it is not legally binding on third parties, including Marathon Oil, the State of North Dakota, or a court. Depending on the ultimate outcome of this title dispute, the Three Affiliated Tribes could challenge the validity of certain of our leases relating to a portion of the disputed land, and if such challenge were successful it could result in operational delays and additional costs to us. Given the uncertainty in matters such as these, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this matter at this time; however, we believe the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We are a defendant in a number of legal and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business including, but not limited to, royalty claims, contract claims, tax disputes and environmental claims. While the ultimate outcome and impact to us cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the resolution of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, we may also be subject to retained liabilities with respect to certain divested assets by operation of law. For example, we are exposed to the risk that owners and/or operators of assets purchased from us become unable to satisfy plugging or abandonment obligations that attach to those assets. In that event, due to operation of law, we may be required to assume plugging or abandonment obligations for those assets. Although we have established reserves for such liabilities, we could be required to accrue additional amounts in the future and these amounts could be material.

Marathon Oil was named in a lawsuit alleging improper royalty deductions in certain of our Oklahoma operations, and after plaintiffs lost their attempt to certify a class action, a settlement was reached, and in the first quarter of 2023 such settlement was approved by the court and paid.

We have received ~~Notice~~Notices of ~~Violations~~Violation (“~~NOV”~~NOVs”)’s from the EPA related to ~~allegations of~~alleged violations of the Clean Air Act with respect to our operations on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation between 2015 and 2019. We continue to actively negotiate a draft consent decree with the EPA and Department of ~~Justice containing certain proposed injunctive terms relating to this enforcement action.~~Justice. The resolution of the enforcement action will likely include monetary sanctions, for which we maintain an updated accrual as matters progress, and implementation of both environmental mitigation projects and injunctive terms, which would increase both our development costs and operating costs. We maintain an accrual for estimated future costs related to this matter regarding actions required to retrofit or replace existing equipment, which we expect to incur over multiple years. Our accrual does not include possible monetary sanctions or costs associated with mitigation projects as we are currently unable to estimate those amounts. Through the date of this filing, there exists substantialThere remains uncertainty as to the ultimate result of this matter and it is ~~reasonably~~ possible the result could be materially different from our expectations and our accrual.

~~The Company~~We have received ~~NOV’s~~NOVs from the EPA relating to alleged Clean Air Act violations following flyovers conducted in 2020 and 2022 over certain of ~~the Company’s~~our oil and gas facilities in New Mexico. The notices involve alleged emission and permitting violations. We initiated discussions with the EPA to resolve these matters. ~~As we are still investigating these allegations,~~At this time, we are unable to estimate the potential loss associated with these matters, however, it is reasonably possible that resolution of these matters may result in a fine or penalty in excess of $300,000.

We have incurred and will continue to incur capital, operating and maintenance and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately offset by the prices we receive for our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including the age and location of its operating facilities, marketing areas and production processes. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for noncompliance.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

In the second quarter of 2019, Marathon E.G. Production Limited (“MEGPL”), a consolidated and wholly owned subsidiary, signed a series of agreements to process third-party Alen Unit gas through existing infrastructure located in Punta Europa, E.G. Our equity method investee, Alba Plant LLC, is also a party to some of the agreements. These agreements require (subject to certain limitations) MEGPL to indemnify the owners of the Alen Unit against injury to Alba Plant LLC’s personnel and damage to or loss of Alba Plant LLC’s automobiles, as well as third party claims caused by Alba Plant LLC and certain environmental liabilities arising from certain hydrocarbons in the custody of Alba Plant LLC. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate this obligation as we do not have any history of prior indemnification claims or environmental discharge or contamination. Therefore, we have not recorded a liability with respect to these indemnities since the amount of potential future payments under these indemnification clauses is not determinable.

The agreements to process the third-party Alen Unit gas required the execution of third-party guarantees by Marathon Oil Corporation in favor of the Alen Unit’s owners. Two separate guarantees were executed during the second quarter of 2020; one for a maximum of approximately $91 million pertaining to the payment obligations of Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A. and another for a maximum of $25 million pertaining to the payment obligations of Alba Plant LLC. Payment by us would be required if any of those entities fails to honor its payment obligations pursuant to the relevant agreements with the owners of the Alen Unit. Certain owners of the Alen Unit, or their affiliates, are also direct or indirect shareholders in Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A. and Alba Plant LLC. Each guarantee expires no later than December 31, 2027. We measured these guarantees at fair value using the net present value of premium payments we expect to receive from our investees. Our liability for these guarantees was approximately $4 million as of ~~June 30, 2023.~~March 31, 2024. Each of Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A. and Equatorial Guinea LNG Train 1, S.A. provided us with a pledge of its receivables as recourse against any payments we may make under the guaranty of Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A.’s performance.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the preceding consolidated financial statements and notes in Item 1.

Executive Overview

We are an independent exploration and production company, focused on U.S. resource plays: Eagle Ford in Texas, Bakken in North Dakota, ~~STACK and SCOOP in Oklahoma and~~ Permian in New Mexico and ~~Texas.~~Texas and STACK and SCOOP in Oklahoma. Our U.S. assets are complemented by our international operations in E.G. ~~Our overall business strategy is to responsibly deliver competitive corporate return levels, free cash flow~~As shown in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Vision and ~~cash returns to shareholders, all of which~~Mission are ~~sustainable~~supported by our Foundation and ~~resilient through long-term commodity price cycles.~~Values. We expect to achieve our ~~business strategy~~Vision by adherence to a ~~disciplined reinvestment rate~~ capital allocation framework that limits our capital expenditures relative to our expected cash flow from operations. ~~Keeping our workforce safe, maintaining a strong balance sheet, responsibly meeting global energy demand with a focus on continuously improving environmental performance, serving as a trusted partner~~We allocate capital to prioritize shareholder returns and per share growth, exercise discipline in ~~our local communities~~reinvestment, retire outstanding debt and ~~maintaining best in-class corporate governance standards are foundational to the execution of our strategy.~~replenish inventory.

In December 2022, we closed on a transaction to acquire approximately 130,000 net proved and unproved acres, with an average 97% working interest, in the Eagle Ford resource play from Ensign Natural Resources (“Ensign”) for cash consideration of $3.0 billion.

Compared to the same period of 2022, we experienced a decrease in revenue and net income from operations and operating cash flow, primarily as a result of lower commodity prices. Total company net sales volumes increased during the second quarter of 2023 when compared to prior year quarter. Below are certain key financial and operational highlights for the quarter:

Financial and operational results

•Our net income was ~~$287~~$297 million in the ~~second~~first quarter of ~~2023~~2024 as compared to net income of ~~$966~~$417 million in the same period last year. Included in our financial results for the current quarter:

◦~~Revenues~~Revenue from contracts with customers in our US segment declined $81 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period of 2023. The primary drivers of the decrease were lower gas and NGL prices and slightly lower sales volumes.

◦In our International segment, we sold our initial shipments of LNG with a global pricing linkage. We realized revenue of $51 million from LNG sales in the quarter, and ended the quarter with a positive LNG inventory balance that was included in our April sales. Refer to Operations for additional information.

◦Provision for income taxes decreased ~~$684~~$24 million compared to the same quarter last year as a result of lower ~~realized commodity prices, partially offset by increased sales.~~

◦~~We recorded a net gain of $3 million on commodity derivatives as compared to a net loss of $27 million during the same quarter last year.~~

◦~~Income from equity method investments decreased $130 million compared to the same quarter last year as a result of lower realized commodity prices.~~

◦~~Depreciation, depletion and amortization~~income before taxes. Our tax rate was ~~$559 million, which was an increase of $123 million as compared to the same quarter last year.~~

•~~Net sales volumes~~largely consistent in ~~the U.S. segment increased 26% compared to the same period last year, primarily driven by increased production from the acreage acquired from Ensign.~~each period.

Prioritized return of capital to investors and maintained investment grade balance sheet

•In the first ~~six~~three months of ~~2023,~~2024, we successfully issued $600 million 5.30% 2029 Notes and $600 million 5.70% 2034 Notes. Net proceeds totaled $1.2 billion and were used to repay the $1.2 billion outstanding balance under our Term Loan Facility.

•In the first three months of 2024, we repurchased ~~$706~~$285 million of shares through our share repurchase program.

•As of ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we have ~~$215~~$49 million of cash on hand and ~~$2.3~~$2.2 billion of total liquidity.

(a)~~International~~Includes drilling activity operated under joint development agreements where we have a working interest in the well.

~~Net~~International

In our International segment, we own interests in multiple facilities in E.G. This includes a 64% operated working interest in the Alba field, located offshore E.G., which is consolidated in our financial statements on a pro rata basis. We also own interests in several facilities onshore E.G. which are accounted for as equity method investments. This includes a 52% interest in Alba Plant LLC, which operates a LPG processing plant; a 56% interest in EG LNG, which operates a 3.7 mmta LNG production facility; and a 45% interest in AMPCO, which operates a methanol plant. For additional information on our interests and their operations, refer to Items 1. and 2. Business and Properties in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

As described in Market Conditions, prior to 2024, we primarily sold natural gas to equity method investees via Gas Sales Agreements (GSA’s) in the form of feedstock for LNG and methanol production at long-term fixed prices. AMPCO markets methanol at market prices, and EG LNG marketed LNG on a market-based contract indexed to Henry Hub pricing. We also sell a certain amount of natural gas for local electricity generation at a long-term fixed price. Whereas the GSA with AMPCO continues into 2026, beginning January 1, 2024, the GSA to sell natural gas to EG LNG, and the contract for EG LNG to sell LNG indexed to Henry Hub pricing, expired and were replaced by a new series of agreements. The Alba field partners no longer sell natural gas under a GSA to EG LNG; instead, EG LNG earns a tolling fee to provide liquefaction, storage and product handling services as well as a profit share, and as an Alba partner, we now market our share of LNG to third parties indexed at global LNG prices. We also assume responsibility for shrink and plant losses during liquefaction, which results in lower reported net production and sales volumes, and we are subject to a lifting schedule for our equity LNG cargos which may place us in an underlift/overlift position depending on timing. In our consolidated statements of income, our sales of LNG to third parties is included in revenues from contracts with customers. The fees payable to EG LNG are recorded as related party shipping, handling and other operating expense, and our share of this income earned by EG LNG is included in income from equity method investments. In addition to servicing the Alba field, EG LNG processes additional third-party gas from the Alen field under a combination of a tolling fee and profit-sharing arrangement, the benefits of which are also included in our respective share of income from equity method investments.

In the first quarter of 2024, our initial sales of LNG under this new contract occurred. Our net sales volumes of LNG were ~~lower during~~78 mmcfd, at the ~~three~~average realized price of $7.21 per mcf. We recorded $51 million in revenue for these sales, and ~~six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared~~incurred expense of $15 million to ~~the same period~~EG LNG for their services. We recorded $39 million in income from equity method investments in the ~~prior year primarily~~quarter, and International segment income of $82 million. We also held a positive balance of LNG inventory at quarter end, that was included in our April sales.

In 2024, due to the ~~impact~~expected arbitrage between LNG and methanol pricing, we have chosen to optimize our E.G. integrated gas operations by redirecting a portion of ~~a turnaround completed in April 2023 and~~Alba field natural ~~decline.~~ gas from AMPCO to the LNG production facility operated by EG LNG.

Market Conditions

Commodity prices are the most significant factor impacting our revenues, profitability, operating cash flows, the amount of capital we invest in our business, redemption of our debt, payment of dividends and funding of share repurchases. Commodity prices experienced significant volatility in 2022 after the Russia/Ukraine conflict began and this has continued into ~~2023.~~ 2024. E~~Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was a geopolitical shock that caused~~vents in the Middle East have added further volatility to energy prices to spike significantly higher in early to mid-2022. However, Russian oil production has remained at higher levels than expected, European gas shortages were averted as record levels of LNG were imported intoand the outlook for that ~~market and an exceptionally warm winter in both the US and Europe has refilled gas inventories to multi year highs causing prices to fall back significantly.~~region remains extremely uncertain.

Crude oil and condensate – Alba field liquids production is primarily condensate. We generally sell our share of condensate in relation to the Brent crude benchmark. Alba Plant LLC processes the rich hydrocarbon gas which is supplied by the Alba field under a fixed-price long term contract. Alba Plant LLC extracts NGLs and condensate which is then sold by Alba Plant LLC at market prices, with our share of the revenue reflected in income from equity method investments on the consolidated statements of income. Alba Plant LLC delivers the processed dry natural gas to the Alba Unit Parties for distribution ~~and sale~~ to AMPCO and EG LNG.

In addition to processing Alba Unit gas, Alba Plant LLC and EG LNG process third-party gas from the Alen field under a combination of a tolling and a market linked profit-sharing arrangement, the benefits of which are included in our respective share of income from equity method investees. This profit-sharing arrangement provides exposure to global LNG market prices.

Income from equity method investments decreased ~~$130~~$41 million in the ~~second~~first quarter of ~~2023,~~2024, when compared to the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to lower prices realized by our equity method investees during the second quarter of 2023, as well as lower production as a result of a turnaround at our E.G. facilities completed in April 2023.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Production expenses~~ increased $50 million in the second quarter of 2023, when compared to the same period in 2022, primarily as a result of our acquisition of the Eagle Ford assets of Ensign in December 2022 and inflationary pressures when compared to the second quarter of 2022. In addition, in our International segment, production expenses were higher due to the April turnaround.

~~Shipping, handling and other operating~~ decreased $30 million in the second quarter of 2023 when compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to lower purchases of commodity volumes for resale to satisfy transportation commitments as compared to the prior period. The decrease is partially offset by an increase in third party consultant fees associated with a nonrecurring Eagle Ford severance tax refund during the second quarter of 2023.

~~Depreciation, depletion and amortizationincreased $123 million in the second quarter of 2023 primarily as a result of higher production volumes.~~

The increase in our capital expenditures for the U.S. segment in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was largely driven by increased investment and drilling related to the Eagle Ford acreage we acquired from Ensign in December 2022. Additionally, inflationary pressures related to oil field services, labor, drilling materials and equipment, as well as timing of capital spend and increased activities in the first six months of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, contributed to the increase in capital expenditures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources and Available Liquidity

Our main sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, internally generated cash flow from operations, capital market transactions, ~~and~~ our Revolving Credit Facility. During the second quarter of 2023, we obtained ratings for our commercial paper from Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s and Fitch. Pursuant to our U.S. commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured notes in a maximum aggregate face amount of $2.5 billion outstanding at any time, with maturities up to 365 days from the date of issuance. Our $2.5 billion U.S. commercial paper program is backed by our $2.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility and ~~can be used to fund short-term working capital requirements. We did not issue~~our commercial paper ~~during the second quarter of 2023.~~program. At ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we had approximately ~~$2.3~~$2.2 billion of liquidity consisting of ~~$215~~$49 million in cash and cash equivalents and $2.1 billion available under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Our working capital requirements are supported by our cash and cash equivalents, ~~U.S. commercial paper program and~~ our Revolving Credit ~~Facility.~~Facility and our commercial paper program. We may issue commercial paper, draw on our Revolving Credit Facility to meet short-term cash requirements or issue debt or equity securities through the shelf registration statement discussed below as part of our longer-term liquidity and capital management program. Because of the alternatives available to us as discussed above, we believe that our short-term and long-term liquidity are adequate to fund not only our current operations, but also our near-term and long-term funding requirements including our capital spending programs, defined benefit plan contributions, repayment of debt maturities, dividends and other amounts that may ultimately be paid in connection with contingencies. See Note 21 17 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion of how our commitments and contingencies could affect our available liquidity. General economic conditions, commodity prices and financial, business and other factors could affect our operations and our ability to access the capital markets.

We maintain investment grade ratings at all three primary credit rating agencies. A downgrade in our credit ratings could increase our future cost of financing or limit our ability to access capital and could result in additional credit support requirements. We do not have any triggers on any of our corporate debt that would cause an event of default in the case of a downgrade of our credit ratings. See Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 for a discussion of how a downgrade in our credit ratings could affect us.

We may incur additional debt ~~in order~~ to fund our working capital requirements, capital expenditures, acquisitions or development activities or for general corporate or other purposes. A higher level of indebtedness could increase the risk that our liquidity and financial flexibility deteriorates. See Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 for a further discussion of how our level of indebtedness could affect us.

Credit Arrangements and ~~Borrowings~~Borrowing Developments

~~In November 2022,~~On March 28, 2024, we ~~entered into~~completed a ~~two-year $1.5~~public offering of $1.2 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes consisting of $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.30% 2029 Notes and $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.70% 2034 Notes. Interest on the senior notes is payable semi-annually beginning October 1, 2024. We may redeem some or all of the senior notes at any time at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued interest, if any. Net proceeds received totaled $1.2 billion which were used to repay $1.2 billion outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan ~~Facility and borrowed~~Facility. See Note 7 to the ~~full amount thereunder in December 2022. The Term Loan Facility can be prepaid without penalty.~~consolidated financial statements for further information.

As of ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we had ~~net borrowings of $450 million against our $2.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility and $5.9~~$5.0 billion of total long-term debt outstanding. Long-term debt due within one year consists of ~~$131~~$200 million 2.10% of ~~8.125% Senior Notes,~~sub-series 2017A-2 bonds and $200 million 2.125% of sub-series 2017B-1 bonds, both of which ~~were repaid in connection with their maturity~~feature a mandatory put on July ~~17, 2023.~~1, 2024. In addition, as of March 31, 2024, we had outstanding commercial paper borrowings of $450 million.

Capital Requirements

Share Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program. Our remaining authorization at ~~June 30, 2023~~March 31, 2024 was approximately ~~$1.8~~$2.0 billion.

Subsequent to the quarter, we repurchased approximately $110 million of shares of our common stock through May 1, 2024.

Dividends

On ~~July 26, 2023,~~April 24, 2024, our Board of Directors approved a dividend of ~~$0.10~~$0.11 per share payable ~~September 11, 2023~~June 10, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on ~~August 16, 2023.~~May 15, 2024.

Income Taxes

As described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the IRA was signed into law during 2022. Under current law and guidance, we ~~do not anticipate being~~are subject to the corporate book minimum tax in ~~2023.~~2024. The U.S. Department of the Treasury isand the IRS are expected to ~~publish~~release further regulations and interpretive guidance ~~and regulations that will be relevant to scoping considerations and~~implementing the ~~calculation of minimum income tax liabilities.~~legislation contained in the IRA. As this guidance is issued, we will continue to evaluate and assess the impact the IRA may have on our current and future period income taxes. ~~If we conclude that we do trigger the minimum income tax, we may have to make estimated tax payments.~~

Other Contractual Cash Obligations

As of ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2024, material changes to our contractual cash obligations compared to December 31, 2023 include the addition of $1.2 billion senior notes issued during the first quarter of 2024 and the full repayment of $1.2 billion outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan Facility during the same period.

Other than the items set forth above, there are no material changes to our consolidated cash obligations to make future payments under existing contracts, as disclosed in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Environmental Matters and Other Contingencies

We have incurred and will continue to incur capital, operating and maintenance and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately offset by the prices ~~we receive for~~of our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including the age and location of its operating facilities, marketing areas and production processes. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for noncompliance.

Other than the items set forth in Part II - Item 1. Legal Proceedings, there have been no significant changes to the environmental, health and safety matters under Item 1. Business or Item 3. Legal Proceedings in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 21 17 to the consolidated financial statements for a description of other contingencies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks in the normal course of business including commodity price risk and interest rate risk. We employ various strategies, including the use of financial derivatives to manage the risks related to commodity price and interest rate fluctuations. See Note 12 8 and Note 13 9 to the consolidated financial statements for detail relating to our open commodity derivative positions, including underlying notional quantities, how they are reported in our consolidated financial statements and how their fair values are measured.

Commodity Price Risk

As of ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we had open commodity derivatives related to crude ~~oil and natural gas.~~oil. Based on the ~~June 30, 2023~~March 31, 2024 published NYMEX WTI ~~and natural gas~~ futures prices, a hypothetical 10% change (per bbl for crude ~~oil and per MMBtu for natural gas)~~oil) would change the fair values of our commodity derivative positions to the following:


(In millions)	(In millions)	Fair Value at June 30, 2023		Hypothetical Price Increase of 10%		Hypothetical Price Decrease of 10%		(In millions)	Fair Value at March 31, 2024	Hypothetical Price Increase of 10%	Hypothetical Price Decrease of 10%
Derivative asset (liability) - Crude Oil	Derivative asset (liability) - Crude Oil	$	2	$	(1)	$	4
Derivative asset (liability) - Natural Gas		$	7	$	6	$	8

Total		$	9	$	5	$	12

Interest Rate Risk

At ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, our portfolio of current and long-term debt is comprised of floating rate debt and fixed-rate instruments. Our ~~Term Loan~~Revolving Credit Facility and ~~Revolving Credit Facility~~commercial paper borrowings are floating rate debt instruments, which ~~expose~~exposes us to the risk of earnings or cash flow losses as the result of potential increases in market interest rates. At ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we had ~~$2.0 billion~~an immaterial outstanding balance under our Revolving Credit Facility and $450 million outstanding borrowings under ~~floating rate debt instruments.~~our commercial paper program. Assuming no change in the amount of floating rate debt outstanding, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the average interest rate under ~~these~~our commercial paper borrowings would ~~increase~~have increased our ~~annual~~ interest expense by approximately ~~$20~~$5 million. Actual results may vary due to changes in the amount of floating rate debt outstanding.

At ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we had ~~$3.9~~$5.0 billion outstanding borrowings under fixed-rate debt instruments. Our sensitivity to interest rate movements and corresponding changes in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt portfolio affects our results of operations and cash flows only when we elect to repurchase or otherwise retire fixed-rate debt at prices different than carrying value.

At ~~June 30, 2023,~~March 31, 2024, we had forward starting interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $295 million designated as cash flow hedges. We utilize cash flow hedges to manage our exposure to interest rate movements by utilizing interest rate swap agreements to hedge variations in cash flows related to the SOFR interest component of future lease payments on our Houston office. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would change the fair values of our cash flow hedges to the following as of ~~June 30, 2023:~~March 31, 2024:

(In millions)

Fair Value at

June 30, 2023

Hypothetical Interest Rate Increase of 10%

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. As of the end of the period covered by this Report based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~June 30, 2023.~~March 31, 2024.

During the first ~~six~~three months of ~~2023,~~2024, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or ~~are~~were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We have received ~~NOV’s~~Notices of Violation (“NOVs”) from the EPA related to ~~allegations of~~alleged violations of the Clean Air Act with respect to our operations on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation between 2015 and 2019. We continue to actively negotiate a draft consent decree with the EPA and Department of ~~Justice containing certain proposed injunctive terms relating to this enforcement action.~~Justice. The resolution of the enforcement action will likely include monetary sanctions, for which we maintain an updated accrual as matters progress, and implementation of both environmental mitigation projects and injunctive terms, which would increase both our development costs and operating costs. ~~We maintain an accrual~~Based on our discussions with the EPA and Department of Justice since the filing of our Form 10-K for estimated future costs related to this matter regarding actions required to retrofit or replace existing equipment, which we expect to incur over multiple years. Our accrual does not include possible monetary sanctions or costs associated with mitigation projects as we are currently unable to estimate those amounts. Whilethe year ended December 31, 2023, we do not believe resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on our business or ~~operations, there exists substantial~~operations. We have in good faith begun implementing select enhanced compliance requirements associated with likely settlement terms and costs to continue this effort are already fully contemplated in our previously announced 2024 capital budget. There remains uncertainty as to the ultimate result of this matter and it is ~~reasonably~~ possible the result could be materially different from our expectations and our accrual.

The notices involve alleged emission and permitting violations. ~~The Company has~~We have initiated discussions with the EPA to resolve these matters. As we are still investigating these allegations, we are unable to estimate the potential loss associated with ~~these matters,~~this matter, however, it is reasonably possible that the resolution ~~of these matters~~ may result in a fine or penalty in excess of $300,000.

Other than the items set forth above, there have been no significant changes to Item 3. Legal Proceedings in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
