Equity method investments acquired in the Transaction were recorded at fair value upon Closing.

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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed 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 its condensed financial statements, and changes in these estimates are recorded when known. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of derivatives, the valuation of tangible and intangible assets, the valuation of share-based compensation, the valuation of contingent liabilities, the valuation of mandatorily redeemable Preferred Units, and the valuation of noncontrolling interests.

Inventory was valued at $4.8 million and $2.1 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, long-lived assets, excluding goodwill, to be held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of the assets have decreased below their carrying value. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company bases their evaluation on impairment indicators such as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefit of the assets, any historical or future profitability measurements and other external market conditions or factors that may be present.
The Company’s publicmanagement assesses whether there has been an impairment trigger, and private warrants outstandingif a trigger is identified, then the Company would perform an undiscounted cash flow test at the timelowest level for which identifiable cash flows are independent of cash flows from other assets.

The Company has historically accounteddid not recognize impairment losses for its warrants as equity, with no change in fair value being recorded in the applicable period. The Company has concluded that the previous accounting policy to account for its warrants as equity rather than as a liability was an immaterial error. The Company has corrected this immaterial error by revising its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 and as of and forlong-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 20202022 and related notes included herein to include the effect of accounting for the warrants as a liability from the date of the Business Combination. Note12—Net Income (Loss) Per Share and Note 13—Fair Value Measurements have also been updated to reflect this revision. In addition, management has also corrected previously identified immaterial errors related to income from its equity method interests unrelated to the SEC Staff Statement.

Fair Value Measurements
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).
Embedded features identified within the Company’s agreements are bifurcated and measured at fair value at the end of each period on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. Such recurring fair value measurements are presented in further detail in Note 13—Fair Value Measurements. When required the Company also uses fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis when certain qualitative assessments of its assets indicate a potential impairment.
Accounts Receivable From/Payable To Apache
The accounts receivable from or payable to Apacheaffiliate represent the net result of Altus Midstream’sthe Company’s monthly revenue, capital and operating expenditures, and other miscellaneous transactions to be settled with Apache as provided under the Construction, Operations and Maintenance Agreement (COMA) between the two entities. Generally, cash in this amount will be transferred to Apache in the month afterits subsidiaries, who held equity shares that represented approximately 13.6% of the Company’s transactions are processed and the net resultsvoting power as of operations are determined. However,April 22, 2022. Accounts receivable from time to time, the Company may estimate and transfer the cash settlement amount in the month the transactions are processed, in order to minimize related-party working capital balances. See discussion and additional detail in Note 2—Transactions with Affiliates.

Other Income
In 2020, the Company entered into a contract with a provider to supply the Company with electrical power. If the Company does not utilize all of its fixed purchase volumes under this contract, then it will receive a credit based on a market rate for the related underutilization. In February 2021, in conjunction with increased power pricing due to the Texas freeze event and under usage of contractual electricity volumes, the Company earned an estimated credit of approximately $7.2 million. This amount is recorded on the statement of consolidation operations in Other income and is recorded in Prepaid assets and other on the consolidated balance sheet. NaN credits were recorded for the three month period ending March 31, 2020. The Company has no remaining performance obligations related to these creditsaffiliate was $24.7 million as of March 31, 2021.2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, revenue from affiliate was $15.6 million. Accrued expense due to affiliate was $4.2 million as of March 31, 2022 and operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were immaterial.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Class A common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. Class C Common Stock is excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding for the calculation of basic net income per share, as holders of Class C Common Stock are not entitled to any dividends or liquidating distributions.
The Company uses the “if-converted method” to determine the potential dilutive effect of (i) an assumed exchange of outstanding Common Units (and the cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of outstanding Class C Common Stock) for shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) an assumed exercise of the outstanding public and private warrants for shares of Class A Common Stock and (iii) an assumed exchange of the outstanding Preferred Units for shares of Class A Common Stock. The dilutive effect of any earn-out consideration payable in shares is only included in periods for which the underlying conditions for the issuance are met.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement
Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”), which requires contract assets and contract liabilities (i.e., deferred revenue) acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Generally, this new guidance will result in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at the same amounts recorded by the acquiree. Historically, such amounts were recognized by the acquirer at fair value. With adoption of ASU 2021-08, the Company assumed contract liabilities at carrying value of $9.1 million upon Closing.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 was issued to ease the potential accounting burden expected when global capital markets move away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), the benchmark interest rate banks use to make short-term loans to each other. The amendments in this update provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationship, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2020-04 will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method (“ASU 2022-01”). Current GAAP permits only prepayable financial assets and one or more beneficial interests secured by a portfolio of prepayable financial instruments to be included in a last-of-layer closed portfolio. The amendments in ASU 2022-01 allow nonprepayable financial assets also to be included in a closed portfolio hedged using the portfolio layer method. That expanded scope permits an entity to apply the same portfolio hedging method to both prepayable and nonprepayable financial assets, thereby allowing consistent accounting for similar hedges. The amendments in ASU 2022-01 also clarify the accounting for and promote consistency in the reporting of hedge basis adjustments applicable to both a single hedged layer and multiple hedged layers as follows: (1) an entity is required to maintain basis adjustments in an existing hedge on a closed portfolio basis (that is, not allocated to individual assets), (2) an entity is required to immediately recognize and present the basis adjustment associated with the amount of the designated layer that was breached in interest income. In addition, an entity is required to disclose that amount and the circumstances that led to the breach, (3) an entity is required to disclose the total amount of the basis adjustments in existing hedges as a reconciling amount if other areas of GAAP require the disaggregated disclosure of the amortized cost basis of assets included in the closed portfolio, and (4) an entity is prohibited from considering basis adjustments in an existing hedge when determining credit losses. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted on any date on or after the issuance of ASU 2022-01 for any entity that has adopted the amendments in

ASU 2017-02 for the corresponding period. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2022-01 will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

2.    TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATESBUSINESS COMBINATION
RevenuesOn February 22, 2022, the Company consummated the previously announced business combination transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2021. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, in connection with the Closing, (i) Contributor contributed all of the equity interests of the Contributed Entities to the Partnership; and (ii) in exchange for such contribution, the Partnership issued 50,000,000 common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership and the Company issued 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class C common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, to Contributor. Please refer to the “Transaction” discussed above.
The Transaction was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, among other things, requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be measured at their acquisition date fair value. The Company also adopted ASU 2021-08, effective as of January 1, 2022, to record contract liabilities at their carrying value as of the acquisition date. Although the Company was the legal acquirer, BCP and BCP GP were determined to be the accounting acquirer and legal acquiree. As a result, BCP and its subsidiaries’ net assets were carried at historical value, acquired net assets were measured at fair value except contract liabilities being recorded at carrying value at the acquisition date, and results of operations of ALTM and its subsidiaries were included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the Closing Date going forward.
The preliminary purchase price allocation is based on an assessment of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition using inputs that are not observable in the market and thus level 3 inputs. The fair value of the processing plant, gathering system and related facilities and equipment are based on market and cost approaches. The goodwill of $3.9 million relates to operational synergies. The value of the Preferred Units and assumed contingent liability was determined through a probability-weighted analysis of the expected future cash flows and other applicable valuation techniques. See additional details for Preferred Units in Note 11—Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Unitsand contingent liabilities inNote 8—Commitments and Contingenciesin the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q. Certain data necessary to complete the purchase price allocation is not yet available, including, but not limited to, valuation of the underlying assets of the equity method investments and liabilities assumed. However, the Company is continuing its review of these matters during the measurement period, and if new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date identifies adjustments to the liabilities initially recognized, as well as any additional liabilities that existed at the acquisition date, the acquisition accounting will be revised to reflect the resulting adjustments to the provisional amounts initially recognized. The Company will finalize the purchase price allocation during the 12-month period following the acquisition date.

Please refer to the “Transaction” discussed above.
The redemption option of the Common StockUnit is not legally detachable or separately exercisable from the instrument and is non-transferable, and the Common Unit is redeemable at the option of the holder. Therefore, the Common Unit is accounted for as redeemable noncontrolling interest and classified as temporary equity on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, 2,740,000 common units were redeemed on a 1-for-one basis or, at Altus Midstream’s option, an equivalent amountfor shares of cash; provided that the Company may, at its option, effect a direct exchange of cash or Class A Common Stock for such Common Units in lieu of such a redemption by Altus Midstream.

10.11.    SERIES A CUMULATIVE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED UNITS
On June 12, 2019, Altus MidstreamPrior to the merger close date, the Partnership had 625,000 Preferred Units issued and soldoutstanding. Immediately prior to the Closing, on February 22, 2022, the Partnership redeemed for cash, 100,000 Preferred Units in a private offering exempt froman amount equal to approximately $120.1 million. The Company assumed the registration requirementsremaining 525,000 Preferred Units as well as 29,983 paid-in-kind (“PIK”) Preferred Units that were issued and outstanding at the close of the Securities Actacquisition. 150,000 of 1933,these Preferred Units and a pro rata amount of the PIK units contain a mandatory redemption feature as amended (the Closing). The Closing occurred pursuant to afurther discussed below.
Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Unit Purchase Agreement among Altus Midstream,Units
At the close of the Transaction, the Company effectuated the Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the purchasers party thereto, dated asPartnership (“Partnership LPA”), which among other things, provides for mandatory pro-rata redemptions by the Partnership of May 8, 2019. A total of 625,00050,000 Preferred Units were sold at a priceor prior to each of $1,000 per Preferred Unit,the six-, twelve- and eighteen-month anniversaries of the effectiveness of the Partnership LPA, for an aggregate issue price of $625.0150,000 Preferred Units over the eighteen-month period. Given this mandatory redemption feature and pursuant to ASC 480, liability classification is required for these 150,000 Preferred Units and the pro rata PIK units. The Company values the liability as of each reporting date and records the change in valuation in the “Other income (expenses)” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Partnership consummated the first of such redemptions redeeming 50,000 units along with 2,856 PIK units on March 28, 2022 for an aggregate amount equal to $60.7 million. Altus Midstream received approximately $611.2For the remaining 100,000 Preferred Units that contain the mandatory redemption feature, the Company recorded $67.2 million and $68.9 million in cash proceeds fromcurrent and noncurrent liabilities, respectively, as of March 31, 2022. These 100,000 Preferred Units must be redeemed in 50,000 unit increments by February 22, 2023 and August 22, 2023, respectively. The Partnership LPA also provides the sale after deducting transaction costs and discountsPartnership with an option to certain purchasers.redeem Preferred Units early so long as at least 25,000 Preferred Units are redeemed in each redemption, without any dollar-value threshold.
Accounting for theRedeemable Noncontrolling Interest Preferred Units
Classification
The remaining 375,000 Preferred Units assumed on the Closing Date do not contain a mandatory redemption feature, and are accounted for on the Company’s consolidated balance sheetCondensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a redeemable noncontrolling interest classified as temporary equity based onin accordance with the terms of the Preferred Units, including the redemption rights with respect thereto.
Measurement The Preferred Units are exchangeable for shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the option of the Preferred Unit holders upon the occurrence of specified events, unless otherwise redeemed by the Company.
The Company applies a two-step approach to measure the redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the Preferred Units, by first allocating a portion of the Company’s net income of Altus Midstream in accordance with the terms of the Amended LPA described above.Partnership LPA.
After consideration of the foregoing, the Company records an additional adjustment to the carrying value of the Preferred Unit redeemable noncontrolling interest at each period end, if applicable. The amount of such adjustment is determined based upon the accreted value method to reflect the passage of time until the Preferred Units are exchangeable at the option of the holder. Pursuant to this method, the net transaction price is accreted using the effective interest method, to the Series A Redemption Price (as defined in the Partnership LPA) calculated at the seventh anniversary of Closing.the closing of the Preferred Unit Offering. The total adjustment is limited to an amount such that the carrying amount of the Preferred Unit redeemable noncontrolling interest at each period end is equal to the greater of (a) the sum of (i) the carrying amount of the Preferred Units determined in accordance with ASC 810, plus (ii) the fair value of the embedded derivative liability and (b) the accreted value of the net transaction price.

12. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company previously issued incentive units, which included performance and service conditions, to certain employees and board members. The units consisted of Class A-1, Class A-2, and Class A-3 units. These units derived value from the Company’s certain wholly owned subsidiaries. Class A-1 and A-2 units would have vested upon either (i) the date of consummation of a change in control or (ii) the date that is 1-year following the consummation of the initial public offering (“IPO”) of the Company (or its successor) (collectively “Exit Events”). Class A-3 units would have vested upon a change in control, if the participants were employed at the time of the event, or upon termination of the participant by the Company.
Immediately upon Closing, all outstanding Class A-1 and Class A-2 units were cancelled and exchanged for 2,650,000 shares (the “Class A - not applicable.Shares”) of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. These Class A Shares are issued and outstanding as they were distributed pro rata to all holders of Class A-1 and Class A-2 units by the Common Unit limited partners from the 50,000,000 common units they received upon the Closing. Before distributing these Common Units, the Common Unit limited partners redeemed them for Class A Common Stock. The Class A Shares are held in escrow and will vest over three to four years. Similarly, the Class A-3 units were exchanged for approximately 163,000 Class C Common Stock and Common Units (the “Class C Shares”) and will vest over four years. The Company also issued approximately 38,000 replacement restricted share awards (“Replacement Awards”) to new employees that transitioned from ALTM as part of the merger. These changes for all three share types established a new measurement date. The Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Replacement Awards were valued based on the Company’s publicly quoted price on the measurement date, which was the Closing Date of the Transaction. With respect to these shares, the Company recorded compensation expenses of $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, based on a straight line amortization of the associated awards’ fair value over the respective vesting life of the shares. With respect to the incentive units, no compensation expenses were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as the incentive units were considered non-vested prior to their cancellation and exchange for Class A or Class C Common Stock.

11.13. INCOME TAXES
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax and the Texas margin tax. Altus Midstream LP is a partnership for federalThe Company’s income tax purposes and passes through its taxable income to its partners, the Company, Apache, and the Preferred Unit holders. Thus, Altus Midstream LP does not record a federal income tax provision. Altus Midstream LP is subject to the Texas margin tax and as such, records a state income tax provision.
On March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the CARES Act, 100 percent of net operating losses arising in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021 may be carried back to each of the five preceding tax years of such loss. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a current income tax benefit of $0.7 million associated with a net operating loss carryback claim.

12.14.    NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Class A common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. Class C Common Stock is excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding for the calculation of basic net income (loss) per share, as holders of Class C Common Stock are not entitled to any dividends or liquidating distributions.
The Company uses the “if-converted method” to determine the potential dilutive effect of (i) an assumed exchange of outstanding Common Units of Altus Midstream (and the cancellation of a corresponding number of shares of outstanding Class C Common Stock) for shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) an assumed exercise of the outstanding public and private warrants for shares of Class A Common Stock and (iii) an assumed exchange of the outstanding Preferred Units of Altus Midstream for shares of Class A Common Stock. The dilutive effect of any earn-out consideration payable in shares is only included in periods for which the underlying conditions for the issuance are met.

13.15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of:include cash and cash equivalents; revenue receivables; accounts receivable;equivalents, accrued receivables, accounts receivable, from/payable to Apache;accounts receivable from affiliates, dividends and distributions payable; thepayable, interest rate and commodity swap derivatives, and Company’s private and public warrants and an embedded derivative liability related to the issuance of Preferred Units.
Topic 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework, and requires disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Topic 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date and requires consideration of the counterparty’s creditworthiness when valuing certain assets.
Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (Level 1 inputs). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under Topic 820 are described below:
Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. An active market is defined as a market where transactions for the financial instrument occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 inputs: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level 3 inputs: Prices or valuations that require unobservable inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Valuation under Level 3 generally involves a significant degree of judgment from management.
23

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or inventory parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instrument’s complexity.
The following tables present financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The Company bifurcated and recognized the embedded derivative associated with the Preferred Units related to the exchange option provided to the Preferred Unit holders under the terms of the Amended LPA. The valuation of the embedded derivative, (using an income approach), was based on a range of factors, including expected future interest rates using the Black-Karasinski model, the Company’s imputed interest rate ranged from 7.32% to 11.58%, interest rate volatility of 39.79%, the expected timing of periodic cash distributions, the estimated timing for the potential exercise of the exchange option of 4.2 years and anticipated dividend yields of the Preferred Units. The Company recorded an unrealized loss of $16.5 million and $62.0$2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively,2022, which arewas recorded inas an “Unrealized derivative instrument loss”loss on embedded derivative” in the statementCondensed Consolidated Statement of consolidated operations. AltusOperations. The Company has classified these recurring fair value measurements as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
As of the March 31, 2021 valuation date, the Company used the forward B-rated Energy Bond Yield curve to develop the following key unobservable inputs used to value this embedded derivative:

Preferred Units Embedded Derivative$155,538 Option ModelAltus Midstream Company’s Imputed Interest Rate7.15-12.51%
Interest Rate Volatility38.75%
A one percent increase in the imputed interest rate assumption would significantly increase the value of the embedded derivative liability at March 31, 2021, while a one percent decrease would lead to a similar decrease in value as of March 31, 2021. The assumed expected timing until exercise of the exchange option at March 31, 2021 was 5.20 years.
The Company has additional embedded derivatives in the Preferred Units related to the exchange option and redemption features that are accounted for separately from the Preferred Units. Level 3 valuations of the embedded derivatives are based on a range of factors, including the likelihood of the event occurring, and these factors are assessed quarterly. There was no value associated with these additional identified embedded derivatives for any applicable period presented.
The carrying value of the Company’s public warrantsPublic Warrants are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices, a Level 1 fair value measurement. The carrying value of the Company’s private warrantsPrivate Placement Warrants are recorded at fair value determined using an option pricing model, a Level 3 fair value measurement, which is calculated based on key assumptions related to expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, an expected dividend yield, the remaining term of the warrants outstanding and the risk-free rate based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the valuation. These assumptions are estimated utilizing historical trends of the Company’s common stock, public warrantsPublic Warrants and other factors. The Company has recorded a liability of $1.5 million and $0.9$0.2 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively,2022. There was no change in “Other noncurrent liabilities” included in its consolidated balance sheet and approximately $0.7 million of expense and $1.9 million of income reflected as “Total other income (loss)” in its statement of consolidated operations related to the fair value changes of the underlying warrants insince closing of the first quartersTransaction through reporting date.

The carrying amounts reported on the consolidated balance sheetCondensed Consolidated Balance Sheet for the Company’s remaining financial assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amount of Altus Midstream’sthe revolving credit facility approximates fair value because the interest rate is variable and reflective of market rates. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2021 or year ended2022.


16.    DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions, and it enters into certain derivative contracts to manage exposure to these risks. The Company did not elect to apply hedge accounting to these derivative contracts and recorded fair value of the derivatives on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020.2021.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company manages market risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and by using derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company minimizes counterparty credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high credit-rating counterparties.
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract.
In September of 2019, BCP PHP entered into 2 interest rate swaps on 75.0% of the outstanding $513.0 million term loan. These instruments were effective September 30, 2019 and have a mandatory termination date on November 19, 2024. The notional amounts of these swaps float monthly such that 75.0% of the total outstanding term loan is covered by the notional of the 2 swaps over the life of the associated term facility. These swaps result in fixed LIBOR rates ranging from 1.76% to 1.78% for the respective notional amounts of our debt for the LIBOR component of our interest rate and are paid in monthly installments.
The fair value or settlement value of the consolidated interest rate swaps outstanding are presented on a gross basis on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest rate swap derivative liabilities were $7 thousand and $2.7 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Interest rate swap derivative assets were $9.7 million as of March 31, 2022. BCP PHP recorded cash settlements on interest rate swap derivatives of $0.9 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in the “Interest Expense” of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, BCP PHP recorded unrealized gain of $11.6 million and unrealized loss of $10.6 million for the change in fair value of the interest rate swap derivatives for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in the “Interest Expense” of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Commodity Price Risk
Similarly, in 2020 and 2021 the Company entered into WTI crude hedges at a specific notional that provides for a fixed price for crude in the Permian Basin.
All of the Company’s commodity swaps had reached maturity as of December 31, 2021. The fair value or settlement value of the swaps outstanding are presented on a gross basis on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Commodity swap derivative liability was nil and $0.2 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

14.17.    SEGMENTS
Our 2 operating segments represent the Company’s segments for which discrete financial information is available and is utilized on a regular basis by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make key operating decisions, assess performance and allocate resources. Our Chief Executive Officer is the CODM. These segments are strategic business units with differing products and services. No operating segments have been aggregated to form the reportable segments. Therefore, our 2 operating segments represent our reportable segments. The activities of each of our reportable segments from which the Company earns revenues and incurs expenses are described below:

Midstream Logistics: The Midstream Logistics segment operates under three streams, 1) gas gathering and processing, 2) crude oil gathering, stabilization and storage services, and 3) water gathering and disposal.

Pipeline Transportation: The Pipeline Transportation segment consists of equity investment interests in four Permian Basin pipelines that access to various points along the Texas Gulf Coast, and our Delaware Link Pipeline that is under construction. The current operating pipelines transport crude oil, natural gas and NGLs to the Texas Gulf Coast.
Upon Closing, our CODM reviewed the Company and ALTM’s reporting segment activities. The Company then renamed its Gathering and Processing segment to Midstream Logistics and its Transmission segment to Pipeline Transportation. These name changes were made to better align segment activities with the name of respective segment. There was no change in segment composition or structure for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Factors Affecting Our Business
The global economySignificance of Crude Oil and Producer Volumes on Our Revenues, Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
The Company’s assets include more than 1,300 miles of NGLs, natural gas, condensate, produced water, and crude oil pipelines as well as 2 Bcf/d of natural gas processing capacity as of March 31, 2022. Most of the energy industry have been deeply impactedgas gathered and processed by the effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and related governmental actions. UncertaintyCompany is associated gas included in the oil marketsstream, making producers’ oil break-even prices the primary driver of activity. The average price of WTI crude oil was $95.01/bbl during the first quarter of 2022. If crude prices were to fall below producers’ break-even prices for a prolonged period of time, drilling activity and volumes might decline and might have a negative impact on our business. In addition, because the negative demand implications of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to impact oil supply and demand. Altus management continues to monitor natural gas throughput volumes from Apache and capacity utilization of the Equity Method Interest Pipelines. The Company remains focused on increasing third-party processing opportunities in addition to Alpine High; however, the current market situation has slowed the pace of this activity. Altus has no upcoming debt maturities, and the term of its revolving credit facility extends through November of 2023.Company’s Pipeline Transportation segment provides NGLs

As a result of uncertainty around global commodity supply and demand, uncertainty in global economic recovery from COVID-19 pandemics and the COVID-19 pandemic may still materiallyarmed conflict in Ukraine, global oil and adversely affect Altus’ results in a manner that is either not currently known or that the Company does not currently considernatural gas commodity prices continue to be a significant risk to its business. For additional information about the business risks relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, please refer to Part I, Item 1A—Risk Factors of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
Altus Midstream Operational Metrics

Throughput volumes and associated revenues;
Costs and expenses; and
Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below).
Throughput Volumes and Associated Revenues
The Company’s operating results are driven primarily by the volumeuncertainty of natural gas, gathered, processed, compressed, and/or transmitted.

Inflation
The annual rate of natural gas wells declines over time.
The Company remains focused on increasing third-party processing opportunities in addition to Alpine High, and other producers are developing oil and gas plays in surrounding areas that may provide Altus opportunities to enter into third-party processing and gathering agreements. Producers’ willingness to engage in new drilling is determined by a number of factors, all of which are affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the most important of which are the prevailing and projected prices of oil, natural gas, and NGLs, the cost to drill and operate a well, the availability and cost of capital, and environmental and government regulations. Company management believes that its midstream assets are positioned in one of the most active regions for oil and gas exploration and development activitiesinflation in the United States hit 8.5% in March 2022, the highest in more than three decades, as measured by the Consumer Price Index. We expect that inflation in 2022 will modestly increase our operating costs and the Company is actively pursuing new suppliesoverall cost of natural gascapital projects we undertake. Inflation, combined with other economic factors has caused drilling and processing arrangements with third partiescompletion costs to increase throughput volumesover 20% from the prior year, which affects our customers and the wells they bring on line. In addition, the Federal Reserve has tightened its monetary policy by approving a half-percentage-point interest rate hike in its systems.
Costs and Expenses
CostsMay 2022 to maintain the federal funds rate in a target range of product sales
Costs of product sales represent purchases of NGLs from a third party, which0.75% - 1.0%. Furthermore, the Company then owns, controls and processes, prior to ultimate sale to customers. These costs are directly associated with the volume and amount of third-party contracts entered into and could fluctuate depending on market conditions and product prices.
Operations and maintenance
Operations and maintenance expenses primarily comprise those costs that are directly associated with the operationsChairman of the Company’s assets. The most significant of these costs are associated with direct laborFederal Reserve signaled that the Federal Reserve would continue to take necessary action to bring inflation down and supervision, power, repair and maintenance expenses, and equipment rentals. Fluctuations in commodity pricesto ensure price stability, including continued rate increases. Increased interest rates will have a negative impact operating cost elements both directly and indirectly. For example, commodity prices directly impact costs such as power and fuel, which are expenses that increase (or decrease) in line with changes in commodity prices. Commodity prices also affect industry activity and demand, thus indirectly impacting the cost of items such as labor and equipment rentals.

Depreciation and accretion
Depreciation on the capitalized costs incurred to acquire and develop the Company’s midstream assets is computed based on estimated useful lives and estimated salvage values. Also included within this expense is the accretion associated with estimated asset retirement obligations (ARO). Depreciation and accretion expense would be expected to increase during future periods in-line with additional infrastructure costs incurred; however, any future asset sales or long-lived asset impairments would decrease expected depreciation expense to commensurate levels.
General and administrative
General and administrative (G&A) expense represents indirect costs and overhead expenditures incurred by the Company associated with managing the midstream assets. These expenses primarily comprise fixed fees set forth in the Construction,Operations and Maintenance Agreement (COMA) entered into with Apache. Refer to Note 2—Transactions with Affiliates in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.
Taxes other than income
Taxes other than income are primarily related to ad valorem taxes on the Company’s midstream assets.ability to meet its contractual debt obligations and to fund its operating expenses, capital expenditures, dividends and distributions.
Supply Chain Considerations
During 2021 and the first quarter of 2022 challenging supply chain issues have emerged that will continue at least through the balance of 2022. Supply chains generally are being strained given the pick up in economic activity as the global economy reemerges from the COVID-19 pandemic. The principal supply issues facing our industry for the next twelve months include: raw materials availability, finished good inventory, rising freight costs, delays due to port congestion and overall labor shortages.

All bidding will require the risk of shipping costs and delays to be factored into proposals. Trucking availability and pricing will impact North American opportunities while sea-freight costs will impact sales of North American manufactured goods being delivered internationally for the foreseeable future. The import of raw materials from China will also incur price increases. To that end, accelerating tensions between China and the U.S. could also result in further supply disruption.
Comprehensive Refinancing

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company plans to enter into transactions to comprehensively refinance our long term debt and minimize ongoing exposure to the Federal Reserve’s decision to raise interest rates to combat the impacts of inflation and the market instability caused by the Russian conflict with Ukraine.

Key Performance Metrics
Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) including noncontrolling interests before financing costs (net of capitalized interest),adjusted for interest, income, income taxes, depreciation and accretionamortization, impairment charges, asset write-offs, the proportionate EBITDA from our equity method investment, equity in earnings from investments recorded using the equity method, stock-based compensation expense, extraordinary losses and adjusts suchunusual or non-recurring charges. Adjusted EBITDA provides a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items as applicable, fromthat we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful understanding of certain aspects of earnings before the impact of investing and financing charges and income from the Equity Method Interest Pipelines. Altus also excludes (when applicable) impairments, unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments, and other items affecting comparability of results to peers. Company management believestaxes. Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our performance because this measure:
Is widely used by analysts, investors and competitors to measure a company’s operating performance;
Is a financial measurement that is used by rating agencies, lenders, and other parties to evaluate our credit worthiness; and;
Is used by our management for evaluating operatingvarious purposes, including as a measure of performance and comparing results of operations from period-to-periodas a basis for strategic planning and against peers without regard to financing or capital structure. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) including noncontrolling interests or any other measure determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing Altus’ financial performance, such as cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that the Company’s results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Additionally, the Company’s computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.forecasting.
Adjusted EBITDA is not defined in GAAP
The GAAP measure used by the Company that is most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss) including noncontrolling interests. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to the GAAP measure of net income (loss) including noncontrolling interests or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool because it excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income (loss) including noncontrolling interests. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry, thereby diminishing its utility.
Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measure
Company management compensates for the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA as an analytical tool by reviewing the comparable GAAP measure, understanding the differences between Adjusted EBITDA as compared to net income (loss) including noncontrolling interests, and incorporating this knowledge into its decision-making processes. Management believes that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measure that the Company uses in evaluating operating results.

Midstream Logistics segment adjusted EBITDA decreased by $2.9 million, or 3%, to $102.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $105.8 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by no similar Winter Storm Uri event in the first quarter of 2022. For example, derivative loss due to Winter Storm Uri of $13.5 million was added back to segment adjusted EBITDA for first quarter of 2021, but no similar add back recorded in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in segment net income including noncontrolling interests of $1.0 million and increases in depreciation and amortization expense, integration cost and income tax expense add backs of $5.1 million, $4.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in relation to the Transaction closed in February 2022.
Pipeline Transportation segment adjusted EBITDA increased by $25.1 million, or 164%, to $40.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $15.3 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was driven by investments in GCX and Shin Oak and a 100% increase in the Company’s investment in PHP, which were all acquired through the Transaction in February 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company only held a 26.67% interest in PHP.

Revenues
For the definitionthree months ended March 31, 2022, revenue increased $109.1 million, or 74%, to $257.2 million, compared to $148.1 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily driven by period to period increases in gathered and reconciliationprocessed volumes, as well as similar increases in residue, condensate and NGL volumes sold.
Service revenue
Service revenue consists of Adjusted EBITDAservice fees paid to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, seeus by our customers for providing comprehensive gathering, treating, processing and water disposal services necessary to bring natural gas, NGLs and crude oil to market.

Of the total increase, $3.5 million was driven by the new operations acquired through the Transaction. The remaining increase was primarily driven by higher period over period electricity costs of $9.4 million and merger integration costs of $1.4 million. The higher electricity costs were due to electricity credits received from one of our primary electricity providers during the month of February 2021 related to the extreme weather caused by Winter Storm Uri.

Costs of product sales
The $1.9 million increase in costs of product sales represent purchases of NGLs from a third-party starting in the first quarter of 2020, which were used to support the product sales to third parties discussed above.
Operations and maintenance
Operations and maintenance expenses decreased by approximately $3.2 million to $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $10.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily driven by increased operational efficiency as a result of transitioning from mechanical refrigeration units to the Company’s centralized Diamond cryogenic complex. Work related to this transition was still being completed in the first quarter of 2020. The transition resulted in decreases in employee-related costs, contract labor, lower chemical expenses, and lower equipment rentals. These savings are coupled with an overall decrease in Company labor from headcount reductions, partially offset by higher electricity power usage and repair and maintenance expenses.
General and administrative
G&A expense decreased by $0.7 million to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily driven by lower professional fees, offset by higher fees paid under the COMA, which escalate on an annual basis per the terms of the agreement. Refer to Note 2—Transactions with Affiliates in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.
Taxes other than income
The increase in taxes other than income was driven by changes related to ad valorem taxes, which increased by $0.3 million to $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The $0.3 million increase reflects adjustments in estimated tax assessments related to the completion of construction and capacity utilization of certain assets.

Unrealized derivative instrument loss
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized an unrealized derivative instrument loss of $16.5 million in relation to an embedded exchange option identified upon the issuance and sale of Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units (the Preferred Units) in the second quarter of 2019. The unrealized loss related to this embedded feature was $62.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The associated derivative liability is recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The fair value of the embedded derivative is determined (using an income approach) by a range of factors, including expected future interest rates using the Black-Karasinski model, interest rate volatility, the Company’s imputed interest rate, the expected timing of periodic cash distributions, the estimated timing for the potential exercise of the exchange option, and anticipated dividend yields of the Preferred Units. The value of the derivative during the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily impacted by an increase in expected future interest rates and by the decrease in the expected timing to exercise the exchange option feature. Refer to Note 13—Fair Value Measurements within Part I, Item 1—Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion.
Income from equity method interests, net
Income from equity method interests increased $5.9 million to $21.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $15.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.2021. The increase was primarily due to the Company’s 26.7 percent shareacquisition of net income from the Permian Highway Pipeline being placed into service in January 2021,new EMI pipelines and was partially offset by an overall decrease in income from Equity Method Interest Pipelines, as a result of a significant winter freeze event in Texas during February 2021.
Other Income
In 2020, the Company entered into a contract with a provider to supply the Company with electrical power. If the Company does not utilize all of its fixed purchase volumes under this contract, then it will receive a credit based on a market rate for the related underutilization. In February 2021, in conjunction with increased power pricing due to the Texas freeze event and under usage of contractual electricity volumes, the Company earned an estimated credit of approximately $7.2 million. No such credit was earned in the first quarter of 2020.
30


Financing costs, net of capitalized interest
Financing costs incurred, net of capitalized interest, includes increases in interest expense not eligible to have interest capitalized related to balances drawn on Altus Midstream’s credit facility throughout the current quarter. Decreases to gross interest expense were primarily driven by decreases to the variable interest rate on the credit facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, all of the interest expense on the credit facility was eligible to have interest capitalized.
Provisions for income taxes
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized a current income tax benefit of nil as compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
The Company recorded no deferred income tax expense during the three months ended March 31, 2021, and for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Key Performance Metric—EBITDA
Net income before income taxes was $22.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $48.6 million from a net loss before income taxes of $26.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in net income before income taxes was primarily driven by a $45.5 million decrease to expense related to the fair value measurement of an embedded derivative at March 31, 2021, a $7.7 million increase of other income primarily related to a power credit, a $5.9 million increase in income from the Equity Method Interest Pipelines, and a $3.2 million decrease in operations and maintenance expenses. The increases to net income were offset by a $6.7 million decrease in total revenue, a $2.3 million increase in interest expense, and a $4.6 million increase of various other costs.
Adjusted EBITDA increased by $18.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes the impacts of depreciation, accretion, impairments, and the changes to the embedded derivative noted above, benefited from an incremental $10.4 million increase related to excluding depreciation andadditional equity interest in the Company’s proportionate share of EBITDA from its Equity Method Interest Pipelines.existing EMI pipeline, PHP, through the Transaction closed in February 2022 and due to higher earnings.
For additional information, see the section titled Altus Midstream Operational Metrics—Adjusted EBITDA above.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
The Company’s primary use of capital since inception has been for the initial construction of gathering and processing assets, as well as the acquisition of the Equity Method Interest PipelinesEMI pipelines and associated subsequent construction costs. For 2021,2022, the Company’s primary capital spending requirements are anticipated to be related to equity contributions associatedintegration of the Alpine High gathering system with its proportionate sharethe legacy BCP system, certain integration related synergies including the relocation of remaining construction, commissioning,compression units and maintenance costs relatingtreating assets to the Equity Method Interest Pipelines, andlegacy BCP processing plants, the Company’s contractual debt obligation, the Company’s payment of a quarterly cash dividend on its Class A common stockCommon Stock and Common Units as may be declared by its Board of Directors.Directors and cash payment upon redemption of remaining mandatorily redeemable Preferred Units.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021,2022, the Company’s primary sources of cash were distributions from the Equity Method Interest Pipelines,EMI pipelines, borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and cash generated from operations. Based on Altus’the Company’s current financial plan and related assumptions including the Reinvestment Agreement, the Company believes that cash from operations, a reduced capital program for its midstream infrastructure, and distributions from the Equity Method Interest PipelinesEMI pipelines will generate cash flows in excess of capital expenditures and the amount required to fund the Company’s planned quarterly dividend and redemption of mandatorily redeemable Preferred Units during 2021.2022.
Given recent crude oil price volatility and uncertain economic activity resulting from inflation, increased interest rates, the COVID-19 pandemicarmed conflict in Ukraine and related governmental actions, the Company continues to monitor expected natural gas throughput volumes from Apache and capacity utilization of the Equity Method Interest Pipelines.

Our operations can be capital intensive, requiring investments to capital resourcesexpand, upgrade, maintain or enhance existing operations and liquidity, could be materially affected by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic.
Altus Midstream Capital Requirements
to meet environmental and operational regulations. During the three months ended March 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, capital spending for midstream infrastructure assets totaled $1.3$29.2 million and $19.1$19.8 million, respectively. Management believes its existing gathering, processing, and transmission infrastructure capacity is capable of fulfilling its midstream contracts to service Apache’s production from Alpine High and any third-partyits customers. As such, the Company expects remaining capital requirements for its existing infrastructure assets during 2021 to be minimal.

Additionally, duringDuring the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020,2022, the Company made no cash contributions totalingto its EMI pipelines compared to $20.5 million and $82.8 million, respectively,contributed to an EMI pipeline in the Equity Method Interest Pipelines, which includes the following equity interest ownership stakes:same period of 2021.
a 16.0 percent interest in GCX;
a 15.0 percent interest in EPIC;
an approximate 26.7 percent interest in PHP; and
a 33.0 percent interest in Shin Oak.
The Company estimates it will incur approximately $10 million of additional capital contributions during the remainder of 2021 for its equity interest associated with construction on these joint venture pipelines. The Company anticipates its existing capital resources will be sufficient to fund the Company’s future capital expenditures for the Equity Method Interest PipelinesEMI pipelines and the Company’Company’s existing infrastructure assets.

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $56.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in 2021. The change in the operating cash flows reflected an increase in net income including noncontrolling interests of $3.3 million, an increase of adjustments related to non-cash items of $12.4 million and an increase in cash provided by changes in working capital of $41.1 million. Period over period increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by new operation acquired through the Transaction.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $21.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in 2021 as the Company did not make any contribution to the EMI pipelines during first quarter of 2022. The decrease was also driven by the cash inflow of $13.4 million acquired through the acquisition closed in February 2022. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in cash outflows of $9.5 million for higher capital expenditures on gathering, processing and transmission systems expansion.
Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities increased by $90.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared with the same period in 2021. The change was primarily due to redemption of mandatorily redeemable Preferred Units of $60.7 million, an increase of $13.9 million in principal payments on long-term debt and a reduction in equity contribution received of $14.9 million.

Total Debt and Available credit facilities
In November 2018, Altus Midstream entered into a revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes that matures in November 2023 (subject to Altus Midstream’s two, one-year extension options). The agreement for this revolving credit facility, as amended (the Amended Credit Agreement), provides aggregate commitments from a syndicate of banks of $800.0 million. The aggregate commitments include a letter of credit subfacility of up to $100.0 million and a swingline loan subfacility of up to $100.0 million. Altus Midstream may increase commitments up to an aggregate $1.5 billion by adding new lenders or obtaining the consent of any increasing existing lenders. As of March 31, 2021, there were $657.0 million of borrowings and a $2.0 million of letter of credit outstanding under this facility. As of December 31, 2020, there were $624.0 million of borrowings and no letters of credit were outstanding under this facility.
Altus Midstream’s revolving credit facility is unsecured and is not guaranteed by the Company, Apache, APA Corporation or any of their respective subsidiaries.
At Altus Midstream’s option, the interest rate per annum for borrowings under this amended credit facility is either a base rate, as defined, plus a margin, or the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus a margin. Altus Midstream also pays quarterly a facility fee at a rate per annum on total commitments. The margins and the facility fee vary based upon (i) the Leverage Ratio (as defined below) until Altus Midstream has a senior long-term debt rating and (ii) such senior long-term debt rating once it exists. The Leverage Ratio is the ratio of (1) the consolidated indebtedness of Altus Midstream and its restricted subsidiaries to (2) EBITDA (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) of Altus Midstream and its restricted subsidiaries for the 12-month period ending immediately before the determination date. At March 31, 2021, the base rate margin was 0.05 percent, the LIBOR margin was 1.05 percent, and the facility fee was 0.20 percent. In addition a commission is payable quarterly to the lenders on the face amount of each outstanding letter of credit at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR margin then in effect. Customary letter of credit fronting fees and other charges are payable to issuing banks.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants that may limit the ability of Altus Midstream and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness or guaranty indebtedness, sell assets, make investments in unrestricted subsidiaries, enter into mergers, make certain payments and distributions, incur liens on certain property securing indebtedness, and engage in certain other transactions without the prior consent of the lenders.
Altus Midstream also is subject to a financial covenant under the Amended Credit Agreement, which requires it to maintain a Leverage Ratio not exceeding 5.00:1.00 at the end of any fiscal quarter, starting with the quarter ended December 31, 2019, except that during the period of up to one year following a qualified acquisition, the Leverage Ratio cannot exceed 5.50:1.00 at the end of any fiscal quarter. Unless the Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 4.00:1.00, the Amended Credit Agreement limits distributions in respect of Altus Midstream LP’s capital to $30 million per calendar year until either (i) the consolidated net income of Altus Midstream LP and its restricted subsidiaries, as adjusted pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, for three consecutive calendar months equals or exceeds $350.0 million on an annualized basis or (ii) Altus Midstream LP has a specified senior long-term debt rating; in addition, before the occurrence of one of those two events, the Leverage Ratio must be less than or equal to 5.00:1.00. In no event can any distribution be made that would, after giving effect to it on a pro forma basis, result in a Leverage Ratio greater than (i) 5.00:1.00 or (ii) for a specified period after a qualifying acquisition, 5.50:1.00. The Leverage Ratio as of March 31, 2021 was less than 4.00:1.00.
The terms of Altus Midstream’s Preferred Units also contain certain restrictions on distributions on Altus Midstream LP’s Common Units, including the Common Units held by the Company, and any other units that rank junior to the Preferred Units with respect to distributions or distributions upon liquidation. Refer to Note 10—Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information. In addition, the amount of any cash distributions to Altus Midstream LP by any entity in which it has an interest accounted for by the equity method is subject to such entity’s compliance with the terms of any debt or other agreements by which it may be bound, which in turn may impact the amount of funds available for distribution by Altus Midstream LP to its partners.
There are no clauses in the Amended Credit Agreement that permit the lenders to accelerate payments or refuse to lend based on unspecified material adverse changes. The Amended Credit Agreement has no drawdown restrictions or prepayment obligations in the event of a decline in credit ratings. However, the agreement allows the lenders to accelerate payment maturity and terminate lending and issuance commitments for nonpayment and other breaches, and if Altus Midstream or any of its restricted subsidiaries defaults on other indebtedness in excess of the stated threshold, is insolvent, or has any unpaid, non-appealable judgment against it for payment of money in excess of the stated threshold. Lenders may also accelerate payment maturity and terminate lending and issuance commitments if Altus Midstream undergoes a specified change in control or has specified pension plan liabilities in excess of the stated threshold. Altus Midstream was in compliance with the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2021.

There is no assurance that the financial condition of banks with lending commitments to Altus MidstreamCompany will not deteriorate. AltusThe Company closely monitors the ratings of the banks in the Company’s bank group. Having a large bank group allows the Company to mitigate the potential impact of any bank’s failure to honor its lending commitment.

Contractual Obligations
Long-term debt obligation and related interest payments. We have contractual obligations for principal and interest payments on our term loans. See Note 6—Debt and Financing Costsin the Notes our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Under certain of our transportation services agreements with third party pipelines to transport natural gas and NGLs with current contract terms from 2021 to 2031, if we fail to ship a minimum throughput volume during any year, then we will pay a deficiency payment for transportation based on the volume shortfall up to the MVC amount. The Company has made no historical shortfall payments through March 31, 2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Other than the arrangements described in Exhibit 99.6 to the Company’s AnnualCurrent Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,8-K filed on February 28, 2022, the Company has not entered into any transactions, agreements, or other contractual arrangements with unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s liquidity or capital resource positions.

Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies (refer to Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Exhibit 99.4 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 28, 2022) are fundamental to understanding our results of operations and financial condition. Some accounting policies, by their nature, are inherently subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions and other subjective assessments and may require significant judgments in applying complex accounting principles to individual transactions, where actual results could differ materially from the Company’s estimates. The Company has procedures and processes in place to facilitate making these judgments. In addition, certain accounting policies are more likely than others to have a critical effect on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and may apply to areas of relatively greater business importance. The following accounting policies are critical to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:
Revenue recognition,
Use of estimates,
Business combination,
Fair value measurement, and
Impairment of long-lived assets.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to various market risks, including the effects of adverse changes in commodity prices and credit risk as described below. The Company continually monitors its market risk exposure, including the impact and developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic,armed conflict in Ukraine, increase in interest rate and inflation trend, which introduced significant volatility and uncertainties in the financial markets during 2020 and 2021.2022.
Commodity Price Risk
Currently, essentially allThe results of the Company’s midstream service agreements are fee-based, with no direct commodity price exposure tooperations may be affected by the market prices of oil and natural gas, or NGLs, and only an immaterialgas. A portion of the agreements are based on the underlying value of a commodity.

condensate prices in the Permian Basin. Fluctuations in commodity prices also impact operating cost elements both directly and indirectly. For example, commodity prices directly impact costs such as power and fuel, which are expenses that increase or decrease in line with changes in commodity prices. Commodity prices also affect industry activity and demand, thus indirectly impacting the cost of items such as labor and equipment rentals. Management regularly reviews the Company’s potential exposure to commodity price risk, and may periodically enter into financial or physical arrangements intended to mitigate potential volatility. Refer to Note 16—Derivative and Hedging Activitiesin the Notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Qfor additional discussion regarding our hedging strategies and objectives.
Interest Rate Risk
AtThe market risk inherent in our financial instruments and our financial position represents the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2021, Altus Midstream2022, the Company had $657.0 millioninterest bearing debt, net of proceeds drawn on its revolving credit facility.deferred financing costs, with principal amount of $2.95 billion. The interest rate for the facility is variable, which exposes the Company to the risk of increased interest expense in the event of increases to short-term interest rates. If interest rates increased by 1.0 percent, the Company’s annual consolidated interest expense would have increased by approximately $1.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Accordingly, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, and the ability to make cash distributions could be adversely affected by significant increases in interest rates. Altus currently has noIf interest rate derivative instruments outstanding, butrates increase by 1.0%, the Company’s consolidated interest expense would have increased by approximately $6.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
TheDisclosure Controls and Procedures
As of March 31, 2022, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and President, in his capacityChief Accounting and Administrative Operating Officer, who serves as the principal executiveaccounting officer, and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, in his capacity as principal financial officer, evaluatedof the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021, the end(as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.Exchange Act). Based onupon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and as of the date of that evaluation, these officersChief Accounting and Administrative Operating Officer, concluded that there was a material weakness in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures in connection with the immaterial revision discussed in Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Revision of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements for Immaterial Adjustment within Part I, Item 1—Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The Company identified a material weakness in its controls over the accounting for the public and private warrants outstanding at the time of the Business Combination. The Company’s controls to evaluate the accounting for complex financial instruments, such as the warrants, did not operate effectively to appropriately apply the provisions of ASC 815-40. This material weakness resulted in an immaterial error in the Company’s accounting for the warrants as more fully described in Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Revision of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements for Immaterial Adjustment within Part I, Item 1—Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on the Company’s assessment, management now concludes that,were effective as of March 31, 2021, its internal control2022.
The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting and Administrative Operating Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Change in Internal Control over financial reporting was not effective.Financial Reporting
To remediate the material weaknessThere were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Company implemented additional review procedures, additional training, and enhancementsExchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the accounting policy related to the accounting for equity and liability instruments (including those with warrants) to determine proper accounting in accordance with GAAP.Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The Company’s remediation plan has been implemented. The material weakness cannot be considered remediated until the controls operate for a sufficient period and management has concluded, through testing, that its internal controls are operating effectively. While management believes that the remedial efforts will resolve the identified material weakness, there is no assurance that management’s remedial efforts conducted to date will be sufficient or that additional remedial actions will not be necessary.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS 
Please referRisks Related to Part I, Item 1A—Risk FactorsOur Business
The Company’s operating assets are currently located exclusively in the Permian Basin in Texas, making it vulnerable to risks associated with operating in a single geographic area.
The Company’s wholly-owned midstream assets are currently located exclusively in the Delaware Basin in Texas which is part of the broader Permian Basin. As a result of this concentration, the Company will be disproportionately exposed to the impact of regional supply and demand factors, delays or interruptions of production from wells in this area caused by governmental regulation, obtaining rights of way, market limitations, water shortages or restrictions, drought related conditions, or other weather-related conditions or interruption of the processing or transportation of crude oil, natural gas, and water. If any of these factors were to impact the Permian Basin more than other producing regions, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected relative to other midstream companies that have a more geographically diversified asset portfolio.

Because of the natural decline in hydrocarbon production from existing wells, the Company’s success depends, in part, on its ability to maintain or increase hydrocarbon throughput volumes on its midstream systems, which depends on its customers’ levels of development and completion activity on its dedicated acreage.

The level of crude oil and natural gas volumes handled by the Company’s midstream systems depends on the level of production from crude oil and natural gas wells dedicated to its midstream systems, which may be less than expected and which will naturally decline over time. To maintain or increase throughput levels on its midstream systems, the Company must obtain production from wells completed by customers on acreage dedicated to its midstream systems or execute agreements with other third parties in its areas of operation.

The Company has no control over producers’ levels of development and completion activity in its areas of operation, the amount of reserves associated with wells connected to its systems, or the rate at which production from a well declines. In addition, the Company has no control over producers or their exploration and development decisions, which may be affected by, among other things:
the availability and cost of capital;
prevailing and projected crude oil, natural gas, and NGL prices;
demand for crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs;
political and economic conditions and events in foreign oil, natural gas and NGL producing countries, including embargoes, continued hostilities in the Middle East and other sustained military campaigns, the armed conflict in Ukraine and associated economic sanctions on Russia;
increase in interest rate and inflation trend;
levels of reserves;
geologic considerations;
changes in the strategic importance customers assign to development in the Delaware Basin as opposed to other potential future operations they may acquire, which could adversely affect the financial and operational resources such customers are willing to devote to development of their acreage in the Permian Basin;
increased levels of taxation related to the exploration and production of crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs in its areas of operation;
environmental or other governmental regulations, including the availability of permits, the regulation of hydraulic fracturing, and a governmental determination that multiple facilities are to be treated as a single source for air permitting purposes; and
the costs of producing and ability to produce crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs and the availability and costs of drilling rigs and other equipment.

Due to these and other factors, even if reserves are known to exist in areas served by the Company’s midstream assets, producers may choose not to develop those reserves. If producers choose not to develop their reserves or they choose to slow their development rate in the Company’s areas of operation, utilization of its midstream systems will be below anticipated levels. Reductions in development activity, coupled with the natural decline in production from its current dedicated acreage,

would result in the Company’s inability to maintain the then-current levels of utilization of its midstream assets, which could materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

Dedicated acreage may be lost as a result of title defects in the properties in which the Company’s customers invest.

It is the practice of certain of the Company’s Annualcustomers in acquiring oil and natural gas leases or interests not to incur the expense of retaining lawyers to examine the title to the mineral interests. Rather, certain customers rely on the judgement of oil and gas lease brokers or landmen who perform the fieldwork in examining records in the appropriate governmental office before attempting to acquire a lease in a specific mineral interest. The existence of a material title deficiency can render a lease worthless. If any of the Company’s customers fail to cure any title defects, such customers may be delayed or prevented from utilizing the associated mineral interest which could result in a decrease in the volumes on the Company’s systems and an associated decrease in its revenues.

We own interests in certain pipeline projects and other joint ventures, and we may in the future enter into additional joint ventures, and our control of such entities is limited by provisions of the limited partnership and limited liability company agreements of such entities and by our percentage ownership in such entities.

We have ownership interests in several joint ventures, including the PHP, GCX, Breviloba and EPIC joint ventures, and we may enter into other joint venture arrangements in the future. While we own equity interests and have certain voting rights with respect to our joint ventures, we do not act as operator of or control our joint ventures, each of which is operated by another joint venture partner. We have limited ability to influence the business decisions of these entities, and it may therefore be difficult or impossible for us to cause the joint venture to take actions that we believe would be in our or the relevant joint venture’s best interests. Moreover, joint venture arrangements involve various risks and uncertainties, such as committing us to fund operating and/or capital expenditures, the timing and amount of which we may not control, and which could adversely affect our cash flow.
We also will likely be unable to control the amount of cash we will receive from the operation of these entities, which could further adversely affect our cash flow. Joint venture arrangements may also restrict our operational and organizational flexibility and our ability to manage risk, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, cash flow and results of operations.

If the third-party pipelines interconnected, or at some future point expected to be interconnected, to the Company’s pipelines become unavailable to transport or store crude oil, NGLs or natural gas, the Company’s revenue and available cash could be adversely affected.

The Company depends upon third-party downstream pipelines and associated operations to provide delivery options from its processing system. Because the Company does not control these pipelines and associated operations, their continuing operation is not within its control. If any pipeline were to become unavailable for current or future volumes due to repairs, damage to the facility, lack of capacity, shut in by regulators, failure to meet quality requirements or any other reason, the Company’s ability to operate efficiently and continue shipping crude oil, natural gas and refined products to major demand centers could be restricted, thereby reducing revenue. Any temporary or permanent interruption at these pipelines could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flow.

The Company cannot predict the pace at which its customers will develop their dedicated acreage or the areas they will decide to develop.

Our acreage dedications cover midstream services in a number of areas that are in varying stages of development. The pace of customers development of these areas and the number of wells that it will ultimately develop in each area is uncertain. Certain of the Company’s customers own acreage in areas that are not dedicated to the Company. We cannot predict which of these areas these customers will determine to develop and at what time. Our customers may decide to explore and develop areas in which we have a smaller operating interest in the midstream assets that service that area, or where the acreage is not dedicated to us, rather than areas in which we have a larger operating interest in the midstream assets that service that area. These customers’ decisions to develop acreage that is not dedicated to the Company may adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

The Company’s customers may suspend, reduce, or terminate their obligations under the Company’s commercial agreements with them in certain circumstances, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

The Company has entered into gas gathering, compression and processing agreements, crude oil gathering agreements, and produced water gathering and disposal agreements with its customers, which include provisions that permit the customer to suspend, reduce, or terminate its obligations under each agreement if certain events occur. These events include non-performance by the Company and force majeure events which are out of the Company’s control. The customers have the
44

Table of Contents
discretion to make such decisions notwithstanding the fact that they may significantly and adversely affect the Company. Any such reduction, suspension, or termination of these customers’ obligations under their commercial agreements would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

Increased competition from other companies that provide midstream services, or from alternative fuel sources, could have a negative impact on the demand for the Company’s services, which could adversely affect its financial results.

The Company’s systems will compete for third party customers primarily with other crude oil and natural gas gathering systems and produced water service providers. Some of its competitors may now, or in the future, have access to greater supplies of crude oil, natural gas and produced water than the Company does. Some of these competitors may expand or construct gathering systems that would create additional competition for the services the Company would provide to third party customers. In addition, potential third party customers may develop their own gathering systems instead of using the Company’s systems.

Further, hydrocarbon fuels compete with other forms of energy available to end-users, including renewable electricity and coal. Increased demand for such other forms of energy at the expense of hydrocarbons could lead to a reduction in demand for the Company’s services.

All of these competitive pressures could make it more difficult for the Company to attract new customers as it seeks to expand its business, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, competition could intensify the negative impact of factors that decrease demand for crude oil, natural gas, and produced water services in the markets served by its systems, such as adverse economic conditions, weather, higher fuel costs, and taxes or other governmental or regulatory actions that directly or indirectly increase the cost or reduce demand for its services.

The Company’s exposure to commodity price risk may change over time and the Company cannot guarantee the terms of any existing or future agreements for its midstream services with its customers.

The Company currently generates revenues pursuant to a variety of different contractual arrangements, including fee-based agreements based on volumetric fees, percent-of-proceeds arrangements based on a percent of the proceeds from the sale of gathering and processing outputs on behalf of a producer and percent-of-products arrangements in which the Company is assigned a portion of the natural gas it gathers and processes as partial compensation. Consequently, the Company’s existing operations and cash flow have limited direct exposure to commodity price risk. However, the Company’s customers are exposed to commodity price risk, and extended reduction in commodity prices could reduce the production volumes available for the Company’s midstream services in the future below expected levels. In addition, in the past, excess capacity has created a highly competitive environment that has decreased commodity price differentials between the Permian Basin and end markets, which has reduced the demand for the Company's services resulting in decreases in volumes transported and lower rates the Company is able to charge to its customers. Although the Company intends to maintain these pricing terms on both new contracts and existing contracts for which prices have not yet been set, its efforts to negotiate such terms may not be successful, which could have a materially adverse effect on its business.

The Company’s business involves many hazards and operational risks, some of which may not be fully covered by insurance. The occurrence of a significant accident or other event that is not fully insured could curtail its operations and have a material adverse effect on its cash flow.

The Company’s operations are subject to all of the hazards inherent in the gathering of crude oil, natural gas, and produced water, including:

damage to pipelines, compressor stations, centralized gathering facilities, pump stations, storage terminals, related equipment, and surrounding properties caused by design, installation, construction materials, or operational flaws, natural disasters, acts of terrorism, or acts of third parties;
leaks of crude oil, natural gas, or NGLs or losses of crude oil, natural gas, or NGLs as a result of the malfunction of, or other disruptions associated with, equipment, facilities or pipelines;
fires, ruptures, and explosions; and
other hazards that could also result in personal injury and loss of life, pollution, and suspension of operations.

The Company may elect not to obtain insurance for any or all of these risks if it believes that the cost of available insurance is excessive relative to the risks presented. In addition, pollution and environmental risks generally are not fully insurable. The occurrence of an event that is not fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

A shortage of equipment and skilled labor could reduce equipment availability and labor productivity and increase labor and equipment costs, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.

The Company’s gathering and other midstream services require special equipment and laborers who are skilled in multiple disciplines, such as equipment operators, mechanics, and engineers, among others. If the Company experiences shortages of necessary equipment or skilled labor in the future, its labor and equipment costs and overall productivity could be materially and adversely affected. If the Company’s equipment or labor prices increase or if the Company experiences materially increased health and benefit costs for employees, its business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

The loss of key personnel could adversely affect the Company’s ability to operate.

The Company relies heavily on its management team. The Company does not maintain, nor does it plan to obtain, any insurance against the loss of any of these individuals. The loss of the services of any key individuals who represent the Company’s senior management or any other critical personnel could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

A terrorist attack, cyber-attack, or armed conflict could harm the Company’s business.

Terrorist activities, cyber-attacks, anti-terrorist efforts, and other armed conflicts involving the United States or other countries may adversely affect the United States and global economies and could prevent the Company from meeting its financial and other obligations. For example, on February 24, 2022, Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine. As a result, the United States, the United Kingdom, the member states of the European Union and other public and private actors have levied severe sanctions on Russia. The geopolitical and macroeconomic consequences of this invasion and associated sanctions cannot be predicted, and such events, or any further hostilities in Ukraine or elsewhere, could severely impact the world economy. If any of these events occur, the resulting political instability and societal disruption could reduce overall demand for crude oil and natural gas, potentially putting downward pressure on demand for the Company’s services and causing a reduction in its revenues. Crude oil and natural gas related facilities could be direct targets of terrorist attacks, and the Company’s operations could be adversely impacted if infrastructure integral to its operations is destroyed or damaged. Costs for insurance and other security may increase as a result of these threats, and some insurance coverage may become more difficult to obtain, if available at all.

A cyber incident could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption, and/or financial loss.

The oil and gas industry has become increasingly dependent on digital technologies to conduct day-to-day operations including certain midstream activities. For example, software programs are used to manage gathering and transportation systems and for compliance reporting. The use of mobile communication devices has increased rapidly. Industrial control systems such as SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) now control large scale processes that can include multiple sites and long distances, such as crude oil and natural gas pipelines.

The Company depends on digital technology, including information systems and related infrastructure as well as cloud applications and services, to process and record financial and operating data and to communicate with its employees and business service providers. The Company’s business service providers, including vendors and financial institutions, are also dependent on digital technology. The technologies needed to conduct midstream activities make certain information the target of theft or misappropriation.

The Company’s technologies, systems, networks, and those of its business partners may become the target of cyber-attacks or information security breaches that could result in the unauthorized release, gathering, monitoring, misuse, loss, or destruction of proprietary and other information, or other disruption of its business operations. In addition, certain cyber incidents, such as surveillance, may remain undetected for an extended period.

A cyber incident involving the Company’s information systems and related infrastructure, or that of its business service providers, could disrupt its business plans and negatively impact its operations in the following ways, among others:

a cyber-attack on a vendor or other service provider could result in supply chain disruptions, which could delay or halt development of additional infrastructure, effectively delaying the start of cash flow from the project;
a cyber-attack on downstream pipelines could prevent the Company from delivering product at the tailgate of its facilities, resulting in a loss of revenues;
a cyber-attack on a communications network or power grid could cause operational disruption resulting in loss of revenues;
a deliberate corruption of its financial or operational data could result in events of non-compliance which could lead to regulatory fines or penalties; and
46

Table of Contents
business interruptions could result in expensive remediation efforts, distraction of management, damage to its reputation, or a negative impact on cash flow.

The Company’s implementation of various controls and processes, including globally incorporating a risk-based cyber security framework, to monitor and mitigate security threats and to increase security for its information, facilities, and infrastructure is costly and labor intensive. Moreover, there can be no assurance that such measures will be sufficient to prevent security breaches from occurring. As cyber threats continue to evolve, the Company may be required to expend significant additional resources to continue to modify or enhance its protective measures or to investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities. Any such breakdowns or breaches, or resulting access, disclosure, or other loss of information, could significantly disrupt the Company’s business and result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, and damage to its reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The COVID-19 pandemic has and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations, the global economy, and the demand for and prices of oil, natural gas, and NGLs. The situation makes it impossible for the Company to identify all potential risks related to the pandemic or estimate the ultimate adverse impact that the pandemic may have on its business.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, governmental authorities, businesses, and consumers, in response to the pandemic have adversely impacted the global economy and created significant volatility in the global financial markets and the demand for and the prices of oil, natural gas and NGLs.

The Company’s operations rely on its workforce being able to access its various facilities. If a significant portion of its workforce cannot effectively perform their responsibilities, whether resulting from a lack of physical or virtual access, quarantines, illnesses, governmental actions or restrictions, information technology or telecommunication failures, or other restrictions or adverse impacts resulting from the pandemic, the Company’s business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected. The unprecedented nature of the current situation resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic makes it impossible for the Company to identify all potential risks related to the pandemic or estimate the ultimate adverse impact that the pandemic may have on its business, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations. The COVID-19 pandemic and its unprecedented consequences have amplified, and may continue to amplify, the other risks identified in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-K10-Q.

Environmental and Regulatory Risk Factors Related to the Company

The Company’s construction of new midstream assets may be subject to new or additional regulatory, environmental, political, contractual, legal, and economic risks, which could adversely affect its cash flow, results of operations, and financial condition.

The construction of additions or modifications to the Company’s existing systems and the expansion into new production areas to service its customers involve numerous regulatory, environmental, political, and legal uncertainties beyond the Company’s control and may require the expenditure of significant amounts of capital, and the Company may not be able to construct in certain locations due to setback requirements or expand certain facilities that are deemed to be part of a single source. Regulations clarifying how crude oil and natural gas production facility emissions must be aggregated under the federal Clean Air Act permitting program were finalized in June 2016. This action clarified certain permitting requirements, yet could still impact permitting and compliance costs. As the Company builds infrastructure to meet its customers’ needs, it may not be able to complete such projects on schedule, at the budgeted cost, or at all.

The Company’s revenues may not increase immediately (or at all) upon the expenditure of funds on a particular project. For instance, if the Company builds additional gathering assets, the construction may occur over an extended period of time and it may not receive any material increases in revenues until the project is completed or at all. The Company may construct facilities to capture anticipated future production growth from its customers in an area where such growth does not materialize. As a result, new midstream assets may not be able to attract enough throughput to achieve its expected investment return, which could adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

The construction of additions to the Company’s existing assets may require it to obtain new rights-of-way, surface use agreements, or other real estate agreements prior to constructing new pipelines or facilities. The Company may be unable to timely obtain such rights-of-way to connect new crude oil, natural gas, and water sources to its existing infrastructure or capitalize on other attractive expansion opportunities. Additionally, it may become more expensive for the Company to obtain new rights-of-way or to expand or renew existing rights-of-way, leases, or other agreements, and its fees may only be increased above the annual year-over-year increase by mutual agreement between the Company and its customers. If the cost of renewing or obtaining new agreements increases, the Company’s cash flow could be adversely affected.

The Company is subject to regulation by multiple governmental agencies, which could adversely impact its business, results of operations, and financial condition.

The Company is subject to regulation by multiple federal, state, and local governmental agencies. Proposals and proceedings that affect the midstream industry are regularly considered by Congress, as well as by state legislatures and federal and state regulatory commissions, agencies, and courts. The Company cannot predict when or whether any such proposals or proceedings may become effective or the magnitude of the impact changes in laws and regulations may have on its business. However, additions to the regulatory burden on the midstream industry can increase the Company’s cost of doing business and affect its profitability.

Rate regulation, challenges by shippers to the rates we charge on our pipelines, or changes in the jurisdictional characterization of some of the Company’s assets by federal, state, or local regulatory agencies or a change in policy by those agencies may result in increased regulation of its assets, which may cause its operating expenses to increase, limit the rates it charges for certain services and decrease the amount of cash flow.

Natural gas and crude oil gathering may receive greater regulatory scrutiny at the state level; therefore, the Company’s natural gas and crude oil gathering operations could be adversely affected should they become subject to the application of state regulation of rates and services. The Company’s gathering operations could also be subject to safety and operational regulations relating to the design, construction, testing, operation, replacement, and maintenance of gathering facilities. The Company cannot predict what effect, if any, such changes might have on its operations, but it could be required to incur additional capital expenditures and increased operating costs depending on future legislative and regulatory changes.

Federal and state legislative and regulatory initiatives relating to pipeline safety, which are often subject to change, may result in more stringent regulations or enforcement and could subject the Company to increased operational costs, increased capital costs, and potential operational delays.

Some of the Company’s pipelines are subject to regulation by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (“PHMSA”) pursuant to the Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968 (“NGPSA”), with respect to natural gas, and the Hazardous Liquids Pipeline Safety Act of 1979 (“HLPSA”), with respect to crude oil and NGLs. Both the NGPSA and the HLPSA were amended by the Pipeline Safety Act of 1992, the Accountable Pipeline Safety and Partnership Act of 1996, the Pipeline Safety Improvement Act of 2002 (“PSIA”), as reauthorized and amended by the Pipeline Inspection, Protection, Enforcement and Safety Act of 2006, and the Pipeline Safety, Regulatory Certainty and Job Creation Act of 2011. The NGPSA and HLPSA regulate safety requirements in the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of natural gas, crude oil, and NGL pipeline facilities, while the PSIA establishes mandatory inspections for all U.S. crude oil, NGL, and natural gas transmission pipelines in high-consequence areas (“HCAs”).

PHMSA has developed regulations that require pipeline operators to implement integrity management programs, including more frequent inspections and other measures to ensure pipeline safety in HCAs. The regulations require operators, including the Company, to:

perform ongoing assessments of pipeline integrity;
identify and characterize applicable threats to pipeline segments that could impact an HCA;
improve data collection, integration, and analysis;
repair and remediate pipelines as necessary; and
implement preventive and mitigating actions.

PHMSA may revise these standards from time-to-time. For example, in October 2019, PHMSA published three final rules that create or expand reporting, inspection, maintenance, and other pipeline safety obligations. PHMSA is also working on two additional rules related to gas pipeline safety that are expected to modify pipeline repair criteria and extend regulatory safety requirements to certain gathering lines in rural areas. Additional future regulatory action expanding PHMSA’s jurisdiction and imposing stricter integrity management requirements is possible. For instance, following the passage of Protecting Our Infrastructure of Pipelines and Enhancing Safety Act of 2020, operators of jurisdictional pipelines were required to update their inspection and maintenance plans to identify procedures to prevent and mitigate both vented and fugitive pipeline methane emission by the end of 2021. Separately, the U.S. Congress reauthorized PHMSA through 2023 as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 and directed the agency to move forward with several regulatory actions. These include, but are not limited to, the issuance of final regulations to require operators of non-rural gas gathering lines and new and existing transmission and distribution pipeline facilities to conduct leak detection and repair programs and to require facility inspection and maintenance plans to align with those regulations. In November 2021, PHMSA released a final rule that expands the definition of regulated gathering pipelines and imposes safety measures on certain previously unrelated gathering pipelines. The final rule also imposes reporting requirements on all gathering pipelines, and specifically requires operators to report safety information to PHMSA The adoption of laws or regulations that apply more comprehensive or stringent safety standards could require the Company to install new or modified safety controls, pursue new capital projects, or conduct maintenance programs on an accelerated basis, all of which could require the Company to incur increasing operating costs that may be significant.

Further, should the Company fail to comply with PHMSA or comparable state regulations, it could be subject to substantial fines and penalties.

Increased regulation of hydraulic fracturing could result in reductions or delays in crude oil and natural gas production by the Company’s customers, which could reduce the throughput on its gathering and other midstream systems, which could adversely impact its revenues.

The Company does not conduct hydraulic fracturing operations, but substantially all of the crude oil and natural gas production of its customers is developed from unconventional sources that require hydraulic fracturing as part of the completion process. Hydraulic fracturing is a well stimulation process that utilizes large volumes of water and sand combined with fracturing chemical additives that are pumped at high pressure to crack open previously impenetrable rock to release hydrocarbons. There has been increasing public controversy regarding hydraulic fracturing with regard to the use of fracturing fluids, induced seismic activity, impacts on drinking water supplies, use of water, and the potential for impacts to surface water, groundwater, and the environment generally.

Hydraulic fracturing is typically regulated by state oil and gas commissions and similar agencies. Some states and local governments, including those in which the Company operates, have adopted, and other states are considering adopting, regulations that could impose more stringent disclosure or well construction requirements on hydraulic fracturing operations. In addition, several states and local governments have banned or significantly restricted hydraulic fracturing and, over the past several years, federal agencies such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) have sought to assert jurisdiction over the process. While the EPA has previously sought to relax environmental regulation and reduce enforcement efforts, including with respect to energy developed from unconventional sources, environmental groups and states have filed lawsuits challenging the EPA’s recent actions. The Company cannot predict the results of these or future lawsuits, or how such lawsuits will affect the regulation of hydraulic fracturing operations. Certain environmental groups have also suggested that additional laws at the federal, state, and local levels of government may be needed to more closely and uniformly regulate the hydraulic fracturing process. The Company cannot predict whether any such legislation will be enacted and if so, what its provisions would be. While the Company does not currently service production from federal lands, government actions to cease or delay new oil and gas leasing and drilling permits or hydraulic fracturing on federal lands, could impact the oil and gas industry and the Company's future potential growth in such areas. Additional levels of regulation and permits required through the adoption of new laws and regulations at the federal, state or local level could lead to delays, increased operating costs, and process prohibitions that could reduce the volumes of crude oil and natural gas that move through the Company’s gathering systems and decrease demand for its water services, which in turn could materially adversely impact its revenues.

In recent history, public concern surrounding increased seismicity has heightened focus on the oil and gas industry’s use of water in operations, which may cause increased costs, regulations or environmental initiatives impacting the use or disposal of water. The adoption of federal, state and local legislation and regulations intended to address induced seismicity in the areas in which the Company operates could restrict drilling and production activities, as well as the Company's ability to dispose of produced water gathered from such activities, and could result in increased costs and additional operating restrictions or delays, that could, in turn, materially impact the Company's business and results of operations.

The Company may incur significant liability under, or costs and expenditures to comply with, health, safety, and environmental laws and regulations, which are complex and subject to frequent change.

The Company is subject to various stringent and complex federal, state, and local laws and regulations governing health and safety aspects of its operations, the discharge of materials into the environment, and the protection of the environment and natural resources (including endangered or threatened species). These laws and regulations may impose on the Company’s operations numerous requirements, including the acquisition of permits, approvals, and certificates before conducting regulated activities; restrictions on the types, quantities, and concentration of materials that may be released into the environment; the application of specific health and safety criteria to protect the public or workers; and the responsibility for cleaning up pollution resulting from operations. Moreover, many of the permits required for the construction and operation of the Company’s assets may be subject to challenge by third parties, resulting in project delays or the imposition of stringent environmental controls as a precondition to issuing such permits. The Company may incur substantial costs in order to maintain compliance with these existing laws and regulations and the permits and other approvals thereunder. Additionally, the Company’s costs of compliance may increase or operational delays may occur if existing laws and regulations are revised or reinterpreted, or if new laws and regulations apply to its operations. Numerous governmental authorities, such as the EPA and analogous state agencies, have the power to enforce compliance with these laws and regulations and the permits issued thereunder, oftentimes requiring difficult and costly response actions. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of sanctions, including administrative, civil, and criminal penalties; the imposition of investigatory, remedial, or corrective action obligations; the incurrence of capital expenditures, the occurrence of delays in the permitting, development, or expansion of projects, and enjoining some or all of the Company’s future operations in a particular area. Compliance with more stringent standards and other environmental regulations could prohibit the Company’s ability to obtain permits for operations or require it to install additional equipment, the costs of which could be significant.

49

Table of Contents
Changes in environmental laws and regulations occur frequently, and any changes that result in more stringent or costly requirements could require the Company to make significant expenditures to attain and maintain compliance or may otherwise have a material adverse effect on its operations, competitive position, or financial condition.

Public interest in the protection of the environment has increased dramatically in recent years. The trend of more expansive and stringent environmental legislation and regulations applied to the oil and natural gas industry could continue, resulting in increased costs of doing business and, consequently, affecting profitability. Additionally, fuel conservation measures, alternative fuel requirements, increasing consumer demand for alternatives to oil and natural gas, and technological advances in fuel economy and energy generation devices, could all reduce demand for oil and natural gas and consequently reduce demand for the midstream services the Company provides. The impact of this changing demand may have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s business, operations, and cash flows.

Climate change laws and regulations restricting emissions of GHGs could result in increased operating costs and reduced demand for the crude oil and natural gas the Company gathers, while potential physical effects of climate change could disrupt the Company’s operations and cause it to incur significant costs in preparing for or responding to those effects.

Climate change continues to attract considerable public and scientific attention. There is a broad consensus of scientific opinion that human-caused emissions of GHGs are linked to climate change. Climate change and the costs that may be associated with its impacts and the regulation of GHGs have the potential to materially affect the Company’s business in many ways, to include negatively impacting the costs the Company incurs in providing its products and the demand for and consumption of its products.

The EPA adopted regulations requiring the reporting of GHG emissions from specific categories of higher GHG emitting sources in the United States, including certain oil and natural gas facilities, which include certain of the Company’s operations. Information in such reporting may form the basis for further GHG regulation. The EPA has also continued with its comprehensive strategy for further reducing methane and volatile organic compound (“VOC”) emissions from oil and gas operations, with a final rule issued in May 2016 that established specific new requirements regarding emissions from production-related wet seal and reciprocating compressors, and from pneumatic controllers and storage vessels. Additionally, the regulations placed new requirements to detect and repair VOC and methane leaks at certain well sites and compressor stations. However, in September 2020, the EPA finalized a rule removing transportation and storage activities from the purview of the rules, thereby rescinding the VOC and methane emissions limits applicable to such activities. On January 20, 2021, the President signed an executive order calling for the suspension, revision, or rescission of the September 2020 rule, and the reinstatement or issuance of methane emissions standards for new, modified, and existing oil and gas facilities, including transmission and storage facilities. In April 2021, the U.S. Senate approved a resolution under the Congressional Review Act to repeal the September 2020 revisions, which was approved by the U.S. House of Representatives and signed into law by the President in June 2021. The passage of the resolution effectively vacated the September 2020 rule and reinstated the prior standards under the May 2016 rule. In November 2021, as required by the President’s executive order, the EPA proposed new regulations to establish comprehensive standards of performance and emission guidelines for methane and VOC emissions from new and existing operations in the oil and gas sector, including the exploration and production, transmission, processing, and storage segments. The EPA plans to issue a supplemental proposal enhancing the proposed rulemaking in 2022 that will contain proposed rule text, which was not included in the November 2021 proposed rule, and anticipates a final rule by the end of 2022. Compliance with these and other emissions rules could adversely affect the Company’s operations and restrict or delay its ability to obtain applicable permits, approvals, or certificates for new or modified facilities.

Climate change remains a priority for the current administration, which could lead to additional regulations or restrictions on oil and gas development. In February 2021, the administration recommitted the United States to the Paris Agreement, a framework for parties to the agreement to cooperate and report actions to reduce GHG emissions. The Paris Agreement calls for parties to undertake “ambitious efforts” to limit the average global temperature, and to conserve and enhance sinks and reservoirs of GHGs. The current administration, in April 2021, announced a target for the United States to achieve a 50% – 52% reduction from 2005 levels in economy-wide net GHG pollution in 2030. This target builds upon the President’s goals to create a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035 and a net zero emissions economy by 2050. In November 2021, the international community gathered again in Glasgow at the 26th Conference to the Parties on the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (“COP26”), during which multiple announcements were made, including a call for parties to eliminate certain fossil fuel subsidies and pursue further action on non-carbon dioxide GHGs. Relatedly, the United States and European Union jointly announced the launch of the “Global Methane Pledge,” which aims to cut global methane pollution at least 30% by 2030 relative to 2020 levels, including “all feasible reductions” in the energy sector. Meeting these goals may require further regulations that could adversely impact the Company’s operations and financial performance or otherwise reduce demand for the products it stores, processes, and transports.

The adoption of legislation or regulatory programs to reduce emissions of GHGs could require the Company to incur increased operating costs, such as costs to purchase and operate emissions and vapor control systems or to comply with new regulatory or reporting requirements. If the Company is unable to recover or pass through a significant level of its costs related

to complying with climate change regulatory requirements imposed on it, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Any such legislation or regulatory programs could also increase the cost of consuming, and thereby reduce demand for, the natural gas the Company stores, processes, and transports. Consequently, legislation and regulatory programs to reduce emissions of GHGs could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. Moreover, incentives to conserve energy or use alternative energy sources as a means of addressing climate change could reduce demand for the Company’s products.

In addition, parties concerned about the potential effects of climate change have directed their attention at sources of funding for energy companies, which has resulted in certain financial institutions, funds, and other sources of capital restricting or eliminating their investment in oil and natural gas activities. Financial institutions may adopt policies that have the effect of reducing the funding provided to the fossil fuel sector. For example, in late 2020, the Federal Reserve recently announced that it has joined the Network for Greening the Financial System (“NGFS”), a consortium of financial regulators focused on addressing climate-related risks in the financial sector. Subsequently, in November 2021, the Federal Reserve issued a statement in support of the efforts of the NGFS to identify key issues and potential solutions for the climate-related challenges most relevant to central banks and supervisory authorities. While the Company cannot predict what policies may result from this, a material reduction in the capital available to the fossil fuel industry could make it more difficult to secure funding for exploration, development, production, transportation, and processing activities, which could result in decreased demand for the Company’s midstream services. Additionally, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced its intention to promulgate rules requiring climate disclosures. Although the form and substance of these requirements is not yet known, this may result in additional costs to comply with any such disclosure requirements.

Finally, it should be noted that there are increasing risks to the Company’s operations resulting from the potential physical impacts of climate change, such as drought, wildfires, damage to infrastructure and resources from flooding, storms, and other natural disasters, and other physical disruptions. One or more of these developments could have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operation.

Increasing attention to ESG matters and conservation measures may adversely impact the Company’s business.

Increasing attention to climate change, societal expectations on companies to address climate change, investor and societal expectations regarding voluntary ESG disclosures, and consumer demand for alternative forms of energy, may result in increased costs, reduced demand for the Company’s products, reduced profits, increased investigations and litigation, and negative impacts on the Company’s access to capital markets. Increasing attention to climate change and environmental conservation, for example, may result in demand shifts for oil and natural gas products and additional governmental investigations, and private litigation against the Company or its customers. To the extent that societal pressures or political or other factors are involved, it is possible that such liability could be imposed without regard to the Company’s causation of or contribution to the asserted damage, or to other mitigating factors. While we may participate in various voluntary frameworks and certification programs to improve the ESG profile of our operations and services, we cannot guarantee that such participation or certification will have the intended results on our ESG profile.

Moreover, while we may create and publish voluntary disclosures regarding ESG matters from time to time, many of the statements in those voluntary disclosures will be based on hypothetical expectations and assumptions that may or may not be representative of current or actual risks or events or forecasts of expected risks or events, including the costs associated therewith. Such expectations and assumptions are necessarily uncertain and may be prone to error or subject to misinterpretation given the long timelines involved and the lack of an established single approach to identifying, measuring, and reporting on many ESG matters. Additionally, while we may also announce various voluntary ESG targets, such targets are aspirational. We may not be able to meet such targets in the manner or on such a timeline as initially contemplated including, but not limited to, as a result of unforeseen or increased costs associated therewith. To the extent that we do meet such targets, it may be achieved through various contractual arrangements, including the purchase of various credits or offsets that may be deemed to mitigate our ESG impact instead of actual changes in our ESG performance. Also, despite these goals, we may receive pressure from investors, lenders, or other groups to adopt more aggressive climate or other ESG-related goals, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to implement such goals because of potential costs or technical or operational obstacles.

In addition, organizations that provide information to investors on corporate governance and related matters have developed ratings processes for evaluating companies on their approach to ESG matters. Such ratings are used by some investors to inform their investment and voting decisions. Unfavorable ESG ratings and recent activism directed at shifting funding away from companies with energy-related assets could lead to increased negative investor sentiment toward the Company, its customers, and its industry and to the diversion of investment to other industries, which could have a negative impact on business and the Company’s access to and costs of capital. Also, institutional lenders may decide not to provide funding for fossil fuel energy companies or the corresponding infrastructure projects based on climate change related concerns, which could affect the Company’s access to capital for potential growth projects.

Proposed changes to U.S. federal, state, and local tax laws, if enacted, could have a material adverse effect on our business and profitability.

Currently, the Company does not believe that it will be a federal tax payer for at least the next 5 years. However, new or amended U.S. federal, state, or local tax laws may be enacted in the future and such laws could materially impact our current or future tax planning and effective tax rates. For example, the White House and Congress have set forth proposals that would, if enacted, make significant changes to U.S. federal income tax laws applicable to domestic corporations. Such proposals include, but are not limited to, (1) an increase in the U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to corporations and (2) a minimum book income tax applicable to certain large corporations. It is uncertain whether these proposals, or similar proposals, will be enacted into law and, if enacted into law, when such laws would take effect. The passage of any legislation as a result of these proposals and other similar changes in U.S. federal income or other tax laws could materially and adversely affect our business, cash flows, and future profitability.

The requirements of being a public company, including compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, may strain our resources, increase our costs and distract management, and we may be unable to comply with these requirements in a timely or cost-effective manner.

As a public company, we will need to comply with new laws, regulations and requirements, certain corporate governance provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, related regulations of the SEC and the requirements of the Nasdaq Global Market. Complying with these statutes, regulations and requirements will occupy a significant amount of time of our board of directors and management and will increase the Company’s costs and expenses. We will need to:

institute a more comprehensive compliance function;
comply with rules promulgated by the Nasdaq Global Market;
continue to prepare and distribute periodic public reports in compliance with its obligations under the federal securities laws;
establish new internal policies, such as those relating to insider trading; and
involve and retain to a greater degree outside counsel and accountants in the above activities.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock

Entities controlled by Blackstone and I Squared Capital, and Apache Midstream own a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting shares and thus strongly influence all of the Company’s corporate actions.

As long as Blackstone, I Squared, Apache Midstream and their respective affiliates own or control a significant percentage of the Company’s outstanding voting power, they will have the ability to strongly influence all corporate actions, including stockholder approval of the election of and removal of directors. The interests of Blackstone, I Squared Capital or Apache Midstream may not align with the interests of the Company’s other stockholders.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends depends on its ability to generate sufficient cash flow, which it may not be able to accomplish.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends principally depends upon the amount of cash it generates from its operations, which will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on, among other things, income from the Pipeline Transportation JVs, the volumes of natural gas and NGLs it gathers and processes, commodity prices, and other factors impacting the Company’s financial condition, some of which are beyond its control. In addition, under Delaware law, dividends on the Company’s capital stock may only be paid from “surplus,” which is the amount by which the fair value of the Company’s total assets exceeds the sum of its total liabilities, including contingent liabilities, and the amount of its capital; if there is no surplus, cash dividends on capital stock may only be paid from the Company’s net profits for the then-current and/or the preceding fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.year.

Holders of the Partnership’s Preferred Units have rights, preferences, and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to the rights of, holders of Common Units, and could dilute or otherwise adversely affect the holders of Common Units.

The Partnership’s Preferred Units rank senior to the Common Units in distribution and liquidation rights, and holders of Preferred Units will be entitled to receive a liquidation preference that incorporates an agreed return on the holders’ investment.
The Company depends on the Partnership for distributions, loans, and other payments to generate the funds necessary to meet the Company’s financial obligations or to pay any dividends with respect to its Class A common stock. Obligations of the Partnership in respect of the Preferred Units may restrict, reduce, or render unavailable funds that otherwise may be available to be distributed, loaned, or paid to the Company by the Partnership or loaned to, or invested in, the Partnership by third parties.

The Company’s charter designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by its stockholders, which could limit its stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with the Company or its directors, officers, employees, or agents.

The charter provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (Court of Chancery) will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the sole and exclusive forum for any derivative action or proceeding brought on the Company’s behalf; any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of the Company’s directors, officers, or other employees to it or its stockholders; any action asserting a claim against the Company or any of its directors, officers, or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the charter, or the Company’s bylaws; or any action asserting a claim against the Company or any of its directors, officers, or other employees that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

The above does not apply for such claims as to which the Court of Chancery determines that it does not have personal jurisdiction over an indispensable party, exclusive jurisdiction is vested in a court or forum other than the Court of Chancery, or the Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of the Company’s capital stock will be deemed to have notice of, and consented to, the provisions of the Company’s charter described in the preceding sentence. This exclusive forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that the stockholder finds favorable for disputes with the Company or its directors, officers, or other employees, which may discourage such lawsuits against the Company and such persons. Alternatively, if a court were to find these provisions of the Company’s charter inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, the Company may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect its business, financial condition, or results of operations.
The Company’s charter provides that the exclusive forum provision will be applicable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, the charter provides that the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, the Securities Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

If the Company fails to maintain an effective system of internal controls, it may not be able to report accurately its financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential holders of the Company’s equity could lose confidence in its financial reporting, which would harm its business and cost of capital.

Effective internal controls are necessary for the Company to provide reliable financial reports, prevent fraud, and operate successfully as a public company. The Company cannot be certain that its efforts to maintain its internal controls will be successful, that it will be able to maintain adequate controls over its financial processes and reporting in the future, or that it will be able to continue to comply with its obligations under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Any failure to maintain effective internal controls or to implement or improve the Company’s internal controls could harm its operating results or cause it to fail to meet its reporting obligations. Ineffective internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in the Company’s reported financial information, which would likely have a negative effect on the trading price of its equity interests.

If the performance of the Company does not meet the expectations of investors, stockholders, or financial analysts, the market price of the Company’s securities may decline.

The price of the Company’s securities could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control, and such fluctuations could contribute to the loss of all or part of a stockholder’s investment. Fluctuations or changes in the Company’s quarterly financial results, changes in or failure to meet market or financial analysts’ expectations about the Company, changes in laws and regulations, commencement of or involvement in litigation, changes in the Company’s capital structure, and general economic and political conditions could have a material adverse effect on a stockholder’s investment in the Company’s securities, and its securities may trade at prices significantly below the price paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of the Company’s securities may not recover and may experience a further decline.

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of the Company’s securities irrespective of the Company’s operating performance. The stock market in general has experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks and of the Company’s securities may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to the Company could depress the Company’s stock price regardless of its business, prospects, financial conditions, or results of operations.
