Exhibit 99.2
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and related footnotes (the “Pro Forma Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, Pro Forma Financial Information, which is herein referred to as Article 11. The Pro Forma Financial Statements of Civitas Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Civitas” or the “Company”) present the combination of the financial information and the pro forma effect with respect to the following transactions (collectively, the “Transactions”), further details of which are included within the footnotes to the Pro Forma Financial Statements.
| · | On August 2, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of Hibernia Energy III, LLC (“HE3”) and Hibernia Energy III-B, LLC (“HE3-B” and, together with HE3, “Hibernia” and such acquisition, the “Hibernia Acquisition”) for aggregate consideration of $2.2 billion in cash, inclusive of customary post-closing adjustments. |
| · | On August 2, 2023, the Company completed the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding equity ownership interests of Tap Rock AcquisitionCo, LLC (“Tap Rock AcquisitionCo”), Tap Rock Resources II, LLC (“Tap Rock Resources II”), and Tap Rock NM10 Holdings, LLC (“Tap Rock NM10 Holdings” and, together with Tap Rock Resources II and Tap Rock NM10 Holdings, “Tap Rock” and such acquisition, the “Tap Rock Acquisition”) for aggregate consideration of approximately $2.5 billion, inclusive of customary post-closing adjustments. |
| · | On January 2, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition (the “Vencer Acquisition”) of certain oil and gas properties, interests, and related assets from Vencer Energy, LLC (“Vencer”) for adjusted aggregate consideration of approximately $2.0 billion, which was comprised of (i) $1.0 billion in cash, (ii) 7,181,527 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, valued at approximately $500.0 million, and (iii) $550.0 million in cash to be paid on or before January 3, 2025. |
The Pro Forma Financial Statements of Civitas present the combination of the financial information and the pro forma effects with respect to the Transactions, further details of which are included within the notes to the Pro Forma Financial Statements. The Pro Forma Financial Statements have been prepared from the respective historical consolidated financial statements of Civitas, Hibernia, Tap Rock, and Vencer, adjusted to give effect to the Transactions and exclude historical financial data from the HE3-B historical financial statements.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”) combines the historical condensed consolidated balance sheets of Civitas and Vencer as of December 31, 2023, giving effect to the Transactions as if they had been consummated on December 31, 2023. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations (the “Pro Forma Statement of Operations”) for the year ended December 31, 2023, combines the historical condensed consolidated statements of operations of Civitas, Vencer, Tap Rock (through the acquisition date) and Hibernia (through the acquisition date), giving effect to the Transactions as if they had been consummated on January 1, 2023. The Pro Forma Financial Statements contain certain reclassification adjustments to conform the historical Hibernia, Tap Rock, and Vencer financial statement presentations to Civitas’ financial statement presentation.
The Pro Forma Financial Statements are presented to reflect the Transactions and do not represent what Civitas’ results of operations would have been had the Transactions occurred on the dates noted above, nor do they project the results of operations of the combined company following the effective dates. The Pro Forma Financial Statements are intended to provide information about the continuing impact of the Transactions as if they had been consummated earlier. The transaction accounting adjustments are based on information and certain estimates and assumptions that management believes are reasonable based on currently available information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Pro Forma Financial Statements have been made.
The Transactions have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, with Civitas identified as the acquirer. The acquisition method of accounting requires fair values to be estimated and determined for the consideration transferred, as well as the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Civitas. As of the date of this filing, the determination of these fair value estimates are still preliminary as Civitas continues to complete the detailed valuation analysis to arrive at the required final valuations, which will be completed as soon as practicable, and will not extend beyond the one-year measurement period from the close of the Transactions provided under Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Any increases or decreases in the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed upon completion of the final valuation analysis may be materially different from the information reflected in the Pro Forma Financial Statements herein. The Pro Forma Financial Statement should be read in conjunction with:
| · | the audited consolidated financial statements contained in Civitas’ Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2024; |
| · | the audited financial statements of Vencer as of and for the period ended December 31, 2023, which are included elsewhere in this filing; |
| · | the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes of HE3 as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2023; |
| · | the unaudited consolidated financial statements of Tap Rock AcquisitionCo as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2023; and |
| · | the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes of Tap Rock Resources II as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2023. |

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Oil and Gas Reserve Quantities
The following tables present the estimated pro forma discounted future net cash flows at December 31, 2023. The pro forma standardized measure information set forth below gives effect to the Transactions as if the Transactions had been completed on January 1, 2023. With respect to the disclosures below for Civitas, the amounts were determined by referencing the “Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows” reported in Civitas’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. An explanation of the underlying methodology applied, as required by SEC regulations, can be found within the Annual Report on Form 10-K. With respect to the disclosures below for Vencer, the amounts were initiated from the “Unaudited Supplemental Oil and Gas Disclosures” reported in Vencer’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, included elsewhere in this filing. Subsequently, the amounts were updated by Civitas management for changes in the development plans of the assets as of the acquisition date and updates for income tax considerations as Vencer was a limited liability corporation that is exempt from federal taxes. These calculations assume the continuation of existing economic, operating and contractual conditions at December 31, 2023. Therefore, the following estimated pro forma standardized measure is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Transactions been completed on January 1, 2023 and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected herein.
