Exhibit 99.2
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet (the “pro forma balance sheet”) is based on the historical condensed consolidated balance sheet of Viper Energy Partners LP (“Viper”) and its subsidiary Viper Energy Partners LLC (“Viper OpCo”) as of September 30, 2021, adjusted to give effect to (i) the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of certain mineral and royalty interests (the “Assets”) by Viper and Viper OpCo (collectively, the “Buyer Parties”) from Swallowtail Royalties LLC and Swallowtail Royalties II LLC (collectively, the “Seller”) under a definitive purchase agreement, dated as of August 6, 2021, by and between the Buyer Parties and the Seller (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”), and (ii) the funding of the purchase price for the Acquisition. The purchase price of $562.2 million for the Acquisition consisted of the issuance of 15.25 million common units representing limited partnership interests in Viper (the “Common Unit Consideration”) and payment of approximately $225.3 million in cash after purchase price adjustments (the “Cash Consideration”). The Cash Consideration for the Acquisition was funded through a combination of cash on hand and $190.0 million in borrowings under Viper OpCo’s revolving credit facility.
The Assets consist of 2,313 net royalty acres primarily in the Northern Midland Basin, of which 62% are operated by Viper’s parent, Diamondback Energy, Inc. At Closing, as contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Assets acquired by Viper for the Common Unit Consideration were immediately contributed to Viper OpCo in exchange for an equivalent number of units representing limited liability company interests in Viper OpCo. The Acquisition was completed on October 1, 2021, with an effective date of August 1, 2021.
The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and certain assumptions that management believes are factually supportable, as further described below in Note 2—Pro Forma Adjustments and Assumptions. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the pro forma balance sheet have been made.
The pro forma balance sheet has been developed from and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the pro forma balance sheet, as well as the separate historical consolidated balance sheet and related notes thereto in Viper’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
