POINT ENERGY PARTNERS OPERATING, LLC

NOTES TO (UNAUDITED) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF JUNE 30, 2024, AND DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023

1. ORGANIZATION

Nature of Operations—Point Energy Partners Operating, LLC (the Company), was formed on May 31, 2018. The primary purpose of the Company is for the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas properties located in Texas and New Mexico.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation— The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Point Energy Partners Royalty GP, LLC, Point Energy Partners Water, LLC, and Point Energy Partners, Royalty, LLC. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation—These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. They reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods, on a basis consistent with the annual audited financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information, accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, which contains a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies and other disclosures.

6

Use of Estimates—The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

The Company’s most significant estimates relate to estimates for depletion on its oil and natural gas properties, asset retirement obligations and fair value of derivatives. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Prepaid and Other Assets— Well equipment and drilling materials purchased in advance totaled $9,905,165 and $9,638,063 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively and is recorded in prepaid and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

Oil and Natural Gas Properties—The company applies the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties. Accordingly, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and natural gas reserves are capitalized.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization of proved oil and natural gas properties are computed on the units-of-production method, using estimates of the underlying proved reserves. Capitalized costs of unproved properties and major development projects are excluded from amortization until proved reserves associated with the properties can be determined or until impairment occurs. The Company recorded $73,417,427 in depletion expense related to oil and natural gas properties for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and $30,701,052 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which is included in depletion and depreciation expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

7

As discussed in Note 6, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold certain royalty interests for consideration totaling $50,350,000. The sales of these royalty interests did not result in a substantial change, therefore all proceeds were netted against the full cost pool within oil and gas properties.

Asset Retirement Obligations—The following table describes the changes to the Company’s asset retirement obligations liability for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

	2024			2023
Asset retirement obligations—beginning of period	$	4,805,281		$	2,860,180
Additions during the period		15,604			1,289,631
Wells sold
Revisions of estimates		(22,707	)		40,394
Accretion of discount		182,491			173,515
Asset retirement obligation—end of period	$	4,980,669		$	4,363,720

Revenue Recognition—Disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers consist of the following for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

	2024			2023
Oil sales	$	290,109,713		$	104,199,218

Marketing and transportation		(8,965,335	)		(3,519,071	)
Net oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids sales		302,828,657			114,389,287
Salt water disposal sales		1,305,792			615,918
Net sales	$	304,134,449		$	115,005,205

The Company had receivables from contracts with customers of $25,482,710 as of June 30, 2024, and $19,461,188 as of December 31, 2023, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments—Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, derivatives and debt. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the highly liquid nature of these short-term instruments. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value based upon the floating interest rates payable on the Credit Agreement. Derivatives are recorded at fair value as discussed below.

8

Fair Value Measurements—The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023:

	June 30, 2024
Assets	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Oil and natural gas commodity contracts	$	—	$	48,122		$	—	$	48,122
Liabilities	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Oil and natural gas commodity contracts	$	—	$	(11,595,213	)	$	—	$	(11,595,213	)
	December 31, 2023
Assets	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Oil and natural gas commodity contracts	$	—	$	8,273,089		$	—	$	8,273,089
Liabilities	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Oil and natural gas commodity contracts	$	—	$	(30,511	)	$	—	$	(30,511	)

The Company’s oil and natural gas commodity contracts are included on the consolidated balance sheet in current derivative assets, non-current derivative assets, current derivative liabilities and long-term derivative liabilities.

3. CREDIT AGREEMENT

The Company has a five-year Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with a third party that matures on June 30, 2025 with a maximum credit amount of $500 million. As of March 31, 2024, the Credit Agreement had a borrowing base totaling $425 million. In April 2024, the Company amended its Credit Agreement to increase the borrowing base to $500 million.

The Company had borrowings outstanding of $480 million and $375 million on the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Outstanding letters of credit included in line-of-credit, net, was $0 as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the collateral as defined by in the amended and restated Guaranty Agreement dated June 30, 2022, which includes a pledge of substantially all of the Company’s assets. Amortization expense of the debt issuance costs for this facility totaled $1,669,419 and $705,410 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is included in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

9

Amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the Company’s option of the Alternate Base Rate, plus applicable margin or the SOFR, plus applicable margin. Under the Alternate Base Rate and SOFR Option, interest will be at the Applicable Base Rate plus the applicable interest margin. The average interest rate on borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2024 was 9.43%.

Availability under the Credit Agreement is subject to a borrowing base determined in the lenders’ discretion consistent with normal and customary oil and natural gas lending practices. The borrowing base shall be re-determined twice annually. The borrowing base may also be re-determined upon the occurrence of certain events.

The Credit Agreement contains negative covenants that limit the Company’s ability, among other things, to incur additional indebtedness, sell assets, enter into certain hedging contracts, change the nature of its business or operations, merge, consolidate, or make investments. In addition, the Company is required to maintain a current ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of no less than 1.0 to 1.0, a net leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of no greater than 3.0 to 1.0.

In April 2024 the Company amended its Credit Agreement with a letter agreement whereby as of December 31, 2023 the required maintenance of a current ratio of not less than 1.00 for the last day of the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2023 was waived solely with respect to such test date. Additionally, effective as of March 31, 2024, the 1.0 current ratio test was amended for the last day of the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2024, whereby the Borrower will instead not permit such current ratio as of such date to be less than 0.50 to 1.00.

At June 30, 2024 the Company was not compliant with certain negative covenants. In August 2024, the Company received a waiver of non-compliant covenants at and for the period ended June 30, 2024. See Note 9.

The Company paid off all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement in connection with the sale of its oil and gas properties. See Note 9.

Cash paid for interest for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, was $17,477,540 and $10,910,347, respectively.

4. COMMODITY DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to commodity and interest rate volatility, support the Company’s capital budget and expenditure plans and support the economics associated with acquisitions by stabilizing cash flows.

The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company accounts for derivatives in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity. Currently, the Company does not designate its derivative instruments to qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the Company reflects changes in the fair value of its derivative instrument of operations as they occur.

10

Commodity derivative instruments may take the form of collars, swaps or other derivatives indexed to WTI, NYMEX or other commodity price indexes.

Such derivative instruments will not exceed anticipated production volumes, are expected to have a reasonable correlation between price movements in the futures market and spot markets where the Company’s production is sold, and are authorized by the Board of Directors. Derivatives expected to be realized as related production occurs, but may be terminated earlier if anticipated downward price movement occurs or if the Company believes the potential for such movement has abated. The Company’s crude oil derivative positions consist of puts and calls. The periods covered, notional amounts, fixed price and related commodity pricing index of the Company’s outstanding crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, are set forth in the table below:

5. MEMBER’S EQUITY

The Company is owned by its member, Point Energy Partners Petroleum, LLC, and its investment members (collectively, members). Earnings and losses of the Company are allocated to the members as set forth in the LLC Agreement, which are not necessarily consistent with each member’s ownership interest. Distributions will be made at the proportion relative to ownership percentage interests, except in the case of an exit event. In the case of an exit event payments are made to shareholders based on the Limited Liability Company agreement.

Certain members of Point Energy Partners Petroleum, LLC granted profits interests in the form of Class B Units to employees of Point Energy Management, LLC who are working for the benefit of the Company. Class B unitholders are entitled to participate in distributions pursuant to a waterfall calculation as specified within the applicable amended and restated LLC agreements.

These units are subject to a time vesting schedule of three to four years whereby 25% or 33% vest on each anniversary of the grant date. Outstanding unvested units also vest upon a liquidity event which management believes is currently not probable of occurrence. If the holder’s employment terminates for cause or the holder leaves for any reason, vested and unvested units are forfeited. If the holder’s employment is terminated by the employer without cause, then any unvested units held by the holder are forfeited.

12

The Class B Units are accounted for as a profit-sharing arrangement with distributions charged to compensation expense and an associated liability recorded at the date a payment becomes probable and reasonably estimable. No compensation expense has been recorded to date for these units.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company received capital contributions from its members totaling $0 and $15,022,316, respectively.

6. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to ongoing legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe the results of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

13

The Company is engaged in oil and gas exploration and production and may become subject to certain liabilities as they relate to environmental cleanup of well sites or other environmental restoration procedures as they relate to the drilling of oil and gas wells and the operation thereof. The Company may not be aware of what environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or during such time the wells were operated. Should it be determined that a liability exists with respect to any environmental cleanup or restoration, the liability to cure such a violation could fall upon the Company. No claim has been made, nor is the Company aware of any liability which the Company may have, as it relates to any environmental cleanup, restoration or the violation of any rules or regulations relating thereto.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
