Exhibit 99.2
Matador Resources Company
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
On April 12, 2023, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Matador Resources Company (“Matador” or the “Company”) completed the acquisition of Advance Energy Partners Holdings, LLC (“Advance”) from affiliates of EnCap Investments L.P., including certain oil and natural gas producing properties, undeveloped acreage and midstream assets located primarily in Lea County, New Mexico and Ward County, Texas (the “Initial Advance Acquisition”). The Initial Advance Acquisition had an effective date of January 1, 2023 and an aggregate purchase price consisting of (i) an amount in cash equal to approximately $1.60 billion (which amount was subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments) (the “Cash Consideration”) and (ii) potential additional cash consideration of $7.5 million for each month of 2023 in which the average oil price (as defined in the securities purchase agreement) exceeded $85 per barrel (all such payments for the 12 months in 2023, the “Contingent Consideration”). The Cash Consideration was paid upon the closing of the Initial Advance Acquisition and was funded by a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The Company made no payments related to the Contingent Consideration during the first, second, or third quarters of 2023. In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company paid Contingent Consideration of $15.0 million, as the average oil price for the months of September and October 2023 exceeded $85 per barrel.
On December 1, 2023, the Company acquired additional interests from affiliates of EnCap Investments L.P., including overriding royalty interests and royalty interests in certain oil and natural gas properties located primarily in Lea County, New Mexico, most of which were included in the Initial Advance Acquisition (the “Advance Royalty Acquisition”). The Advance Royalty Acquisition had an effective date of October 1, 2023 and an aggregate purchase price of approximately $81.0 million (which amount is subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments), and was funded by cash on hand.
The Initial Advance Acquisition and Advance Royalty Acquisition (collectively, the “Advance Acquisition”) were accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC Topic 805”). Under ASC Topic 805, the purchase price is allocated to the underlying tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values as of the respective acquisition dates, with any excess purchase price allocated to goodwill. The pro forma financial statements presented herein have been prepared to reflect the transaction accounting adjustments to Matador’s historical condensed consolidated financial information in order to account for the Advance Acquisition, the assumption of assets and liabilities acquired in the Advance Acquisition and the additional debt incurred to fund the Advance Acquisition.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 gives effect to the Advance Acquisition and the related financing as if each had been completed on January 1, 2023. Assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with the pro forma financial statements.
The pro forma financial statements and related notes have been prepared by management in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations of Matador would have been had the Advance Acquisition and the related financing occurred on the dates noted above, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors. The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions that Matador believes provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the Advance Acquisition.
The pro forma financial statements and related notes do not reflect the benefits of projected synergies, potential cost savings or the costs that may be necessary to achieve such savings, opportunities to increase revenue generation or other factors that may result from the Advance Acquisition and, accordingly, do not attempt to predict or suggest future results. Management cannot identify the timing, nature and amount of such savings, costs or other factors, any of which could affect the future consolidated results of operations of the Company.
