Exhibit 99.1
Item 6.Selected Financial and Operating Data
The following table shows our selected financial and operating data, which are derived from our consolidated financial statements, for the periods and as of the dates indicated. In May 2008, we closed our initial public offering. Concurrent with the closing of the offering, Anadarko contributed to us the assets and liabilities of AGC, PGT and MIGC, which we refer to as our “initial assets.” In December 2008, we closed the Powder River acquisition with Anadarko and in July 2009, we closed the Chipeta acquisition with Anadarko. In January 2010, August 2010 and September 2010, we closed the Granger acquisition, Wattenberg acquisition and AWC acquisition, respectively, and the assets and operations of the Granger assets, Wattenberg assets and 0.4% interest in White Cliffs are reflected herein on a retroactive basis. Anadarko acquired MIGC, the Powder River assets and the Granger assets in connection with its August 23, 2006 acquisition of Western, and acquired the Chipeta assets and Wattenberg assets in connection with its August 10, 2006 acquisition of Kerr-McGee. Anadarko made its initial investment in White Cliffs on January 29, 2007.
Our acquisitions from Anadarko are considered transfers of net assets between entities under common control. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements include (i) the combined financial results and operations of AGC and PGT from their inception through the closing date of our initial public offering and (ii) the consolidated financial results and operations of Western Gas Partners, LP and its subsidiaries from the closing date of our initial public offering thereafter, combined with (a) the financial results and operations of MIGC, the Powder River assets and Granger assets, from August 23, 2006 thereafter, (b) the financial results and operations of the Chipeta assets and Wattenberg assets, from August 10, 2006 thereafter, and (c) the 0.4% interest in White Cliffs from January 29, 2007 thereafter.
