NOTE 1—ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization

Kimbell Royalty Partners, LP is a Delaware limited partnership formed in 2015 to own and acquire mineral and royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties throughout the United States. Effective as of September 24, 2018, the Partnership has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. As an owner of mineral and royalty interests, the Partnership is entitled to a portion of the revenues received from the production of oil, natural gas and associated natural gas liquids (“NGL”) from the acreage underlying its interests, net of post-production expenses and taxes. The Partnership is not obligated to fund drilling and completion costs, lease operating expenses or plugging and abandonment costs at the end of a well’s productive life. The Partnership’s primary business objective is to provide increasing cash distributions to unitholders resulting from acquisitions from third parties, its Sponsors and the Contributing Parties and from organic growth through the continued development by working interest owners of the properties in which it owns an interest.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required for complete annual financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which contains a summary of the Partnership’s significant accounting policies and other disclosures. In the opinion of the Partnership’s management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to fairly present the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods in accordance with GAAP and all adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Preparation of the Partnership’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

The Partnership operates in a single operating and reportable segment. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Partnership’s chief operating decision maker allocates resources and assesses performance based upon financial information of the Partnership as a whole.

COVID-19 Pandemic and Impact on Global Demand for Oil and Natural Gas

The global spread of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) created significant volatility, uncertainty, and economic disruption during the first six months of 2020. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (the “WHO”) declared

The pandemic has reached more than 200 countries and has resulted in widespread adverse impacts on the global economy, the Partnership’s oil, natural gas, and NGL operators and other parties with whom the Partnership has business relations, including a significant reduction in the global demand for oil and natural gas. This significant decline in demand accelerated following the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, raising concerns about global storage capacity. The resulting supply and demand imbalance has led to a significantly weaker outlook for oil and gas producers and is having a disruptive impact on the oil and natural gas industry.

The Partnership has modified certain business practices (including those related to employee travel, employee work locations, and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences) to conform to government restrictions and best practices encouraged by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the WHO and other governmental and regulatory authorities. In mid-March, the Partnership restricted access to its offices to only essential employees, and directed the remainder of its employees to work from home to the extent possible. Beginning in mid-May, the Partnership opened its offices to employees on a voluntary basis, with employees having the option to work from the office or from home. These restrictions have had minimal impact on the Partnership’s operations to date and have allowed the Partnership to maintain the engagement and connectivity of its personnel, as well as minimize the number of employees in the office.

The ultimate impacts of COVID-19 and the volatility currently being experienced in the oil and natural gas markets on the Partnership’s business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, including, among others, the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the consequences of governmental and other measures designed to prevent the spread of the virus, the development of effective treatments, the duration of the outbreak, actions taken by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, governmental authorities and other thirds parties, workforce availability, and the timing and extent to which normal economic and operating conditions resume. For additional discussion regarding the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and actions announced by OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, see Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This update modifies the fair value measurement disclosure requirements specifically related to Level 3 fair value measurements and transfers between levels. The Partnership adopted this update on January 1, 2020 and applied it prospectively. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Partnership’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments —Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The standard replaced the currently required incurred loss approach with an expected loss model for instruments measured at amortized cost. The Partnership adopted this update using the modified retrospective approach, effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Partnership’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” that is expected to reduce cost and complexity related to accounting for income taxes. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this update, but does not believe it will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

NOTE 3—ACQUISITIONS AND JOINT VENTURES

Acquisitions

On March 25, 2019, the Partnership acquired all of the equity interests in subsidiaries of PEP I Holdings, LLC, PEP II Holdings, LLC and PEP III Holdings, LLC that own oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests (the “Phillips Acquisition”). The aggregate consideration for the Phillips Acquisition consisted of 9,400,000 common units of the Operating Company (“OpCo common units”) and an equal number of Class B units representing limited partner interests of the Partnership (“Class B units”). The Class B units and OpCo common units are exchangeable together into an equal number of common units representing limited partner interests in the Partnership (“common units”). The assets acquired in the Phillips Acquisition consisted of approximately 866,528 gross acres and 12,210 net royalty acres.

On April 17, 2020, the Partnership and the Operating Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity interests in Springbok Energy Partners, LLC and Springbok Energy Partners II, LLC (the “Springbok Acquisition”). The aggregate consideration for the Springbok Acquisition consisted of (i) approximately $95.0 million in cash, which was funded by borrowings under the Partnership’s secured revolving credit facility, (ii) the issuance of 2,224,358 common units and (iii) the issuance of 2,497,134 OpCo common units and an equal number of Class B units. At the time of the Springbok Acquisition, the acreage acquired had over 90 operators on 2,160 net royalty acres across core areas of the Delaware Basin, DJ Basin, Haynesville, STACK, Eagle Ford and other leading basins.

Joint Ventures

The Partnership has partial ownership in a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) with Springbok SKR Capital Company, LLC and Rivercrest Capital Partners, LP, a related party. The Partnership’s ownership in the Joint Venture is 49.3% and its total capital commitment will not exceed $15.0 million. The Joint Venture is managed by Springbok Operating Company, LLC. While certain members of Springbok Operating Company, LLC are affiliated with the entities acquired as part of the Springbok Acquisition, none of the assets held by the Joint Venture were included in the Springbok Acquisition. The purpose of the Joint Venture is to make direct or indirect investments in royalty, mineral and overriding royalty interests and similar non-cost bearing interests in oil and gas properties, excluding leasehold or working interests. The Partnership currently utilizes the equity method of accounting for its investment in the Joint Venture. As of June 30, 2020, the Partnership had paid approximately $4.2 million under its capital commitment. In July 2020, the Partnership paid a capital contribution of $0.5 million, bringing the total amount paid under its capital commitment to approximately $4.7 million.

NOTE 4—DERIVATIVES

The Partnership’s ongoing operations expose it to changes in the market price for oil and natural gas. To mitigate the inherent commodity price risk associated with its operations, the Partnership uses oil and natural gas commodity derivative financial instruments. From time to time, such instruments may include variable-to-fixed-price swaps, costless collars, fixed-price contracts, and other contractual arrangements. The Partnership enters into oil and natural gas derivative contracts that contain netting arrangements with each counterparty.

As of June 30, 2020, the Partnership’s commodity derivative contracts consisted of fixed price swaps, under which the Partnership receives a fixed price for the contract and pays a floating market price to the counterparty over a specified period for a contracted volume. The Partnership hedges its daily production based on the amount of debt and/or preferred equity as a percent of its enterprise value. As of June 30, 2020, this amount constitutes approximately 33% of daily oil and natural gas production.

The Partnership’s oil fixed price swap transactions are settled based upon the average daily prices for the calendar month of the contract period, and its natural gas fixed price swap transactions are settled based upon the last day settlement of the first nearby month futures contract of the contract period. Settlement for oil derivative contracts occurs in the succeeding month and natural gas derivative contracts are settled in the production month.

The Partnership has not designated any of its derivative contracts as hedges for accounting purposes. The Partnership records all derivative contracts at fair value. Changes in the fair values of the Partnership’s derivative instruments are recognized as gains or losses in the current period and are presented on a net basis in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Changes in fair value consisted of the following:

NOTE 5—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Partnership measures and reports certain assets and liabilities on a fair value basis and has classified and disclosed its fair value measurements using the levels of the fair value hierarchy noted below. The carrying values of cash, oil, natural gas and NGL receivables, accounts receivable and other current assets and current and long-term liabilities included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets approximated fair value as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 due to their short-term duration and variable interest rates that approximate prevailing interest rates as of each reporting period. As a result, these financial assets and liabilities are not discussed below.

●

Level 1— Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Table of Contents

KIMBELL ROYALTY PARTNERS, LP

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)

(Unaudited)

●

Level 2—Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets, or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

●

Level 3—Measurement based on prices or valuations models that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement (including the Partnership’s own assumptions in determining fair value).

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Partnership’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Partnership recognizes transfers between fair value hierarchy levels as of the end of the reporting period in which the event or change in circumstances causing the transfer occurred. The Partnership did not have any transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

The Partnership’s commodity derivative instruments are classified within Level 2. The fair values of the Partnership’s oil and natural gas fixed price swaps are based upon inputs that are either readily available in the public market, such as oil and natural gas futures prices, volatility factors and discount rates, or can be corroborated from active markets.

The following tables summarize the Partnership’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the fair value hierarchy:

NOTE 6—OIL AND NATURAL GAS PROPERTIES

Oil and natural gas properties consist of the following:


	June 30,		December 31,
	2020		2019
Oil and natural gas properties
Proved properties	$	906,256,358	$	758,313,233
Unevaluated properties		242,656,886		275,041,784
Less: accumulated depreciation, depletion and impairment		(490,530,741)		(328,913,425)
Total oil and natural gas properties	$	658,382,503	$	704,441,592

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are excluded from the full cost pool until a determination as to the existence of proved reserves is able to be made.

The Partnership assesses all items classified as unevaluated property on a periodic basis for possible impairment. The Partnership assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant. The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: economic and market conditions; operators’ intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; operators’ drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of operator development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate an impairment, all or a portion of the associated leasehold costs are transferred

to the full cost pool and are then subject to amortization and to the full cost ceiling test. The Partnership transferred $48.6 million to the full cost pool, which is included in the impairment charge for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The Partnership recorded an impairment on its oil and natural gas properties of $65.5 million and $136.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The impairment recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was due to the recent significant decline in oil and natural gas prices, as well as longer-term commodity price outlooks, related to reduced demand for oil and natural gas as a result of COVID-19, the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, and other supply factors. After evaluating these external factors, the Partnership determined that significant drilling uncertainty existed regarding its proved undeveloped (“PUD”) reserves that were included in its total estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2019, as well as its unevaluated oil and natural gas properties. Specifically, with respect to the Partnership’s PUD reserves (which accounted for approximately 6.1% of total estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2019), the Partnership determined that it did not have reasonable certainty as to the timing of the development of the PUD reserves and, therefore, recorded an impairment on such properties in the first quarter of 2020. The Partnership similarly recorded an impairment on the value of its unevaluated oil and natural gas properties in the first quarter of 2020, which primarily were acquired in various acquisitions since its initial public offering. There were no additional impairments to unevaluated properties in the second quarter of 2020. The Partnership does not intend to book PUD reserves going forward.

The Partnership recorded an impairment on its oil and natural gas properties of $28.1 million and $30.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, primarily due to a decline in the 12-month average price of oil and natural gas.

NOTE 7—LEASES

Substantially all of the Partnership’s leases are long-term operating leases with fixed payment terms and will terminate in June 2029. The Partnership’s right-of-use (“ROU”) operating lease assets represent its right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and its operating lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments. ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities are included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Short term operating lease liabilities are included in other current liabilities. The weighted average remaining lease term as of June 30, 2020 is 8.84 years.

Both the ROU operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term and do not include lease incentives. The Partnership’s leases do not provide an implicit rate that can readily be determined; therefore, the Partnership used a discount rate based on its incremental borrowing rate, which is determined by the information available in the secured revolving credit facility. The incremental borrowing rate reflects the estimated rate of interest that the Partnership would pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The weighted average discount rate used for the operating lease was 6.75% for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The total operating lease expense recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was not material.

Currently, the most substantial contractual arrangements that the Partnership has classified as operating leases are the main office spaces used for operations. In July 2019, the Partnership became the lessee in several other related lease agreements for additional office space. In addition, the Partnership was involved in the construction and design of the underlying assets.

NOTE 8—LONG-TERM DEBT

The Partnership maintains a secured revolving credit facility that is secured by substantially all of its assets, the Operating Company’s assets and the assets of their wholly owned subsidiaries. Availability under the secured revolving credit facility equals the lesser of the aggregate maximum commitments of the lenders and the borrowing base. Total commitments under the secured revolving credit facility are set at $225.0 million, and the borrowing base is set at $300.0 million. The secured revolving credit facility permits aggregate commitments under the secured revolving credit facility to be increased to up to $500.0 million, subject to the limitations of the Partnership’s borrowing base and the satisfaction of certain conditions and the procurement of additional commitments from new or existing lenders. The borrowing base will be redetermined semiannually on or about May 1 and November 1 of each year based on the value of the Partnership’s oil and natural gas properties and the oil and natural gas properties of the Partnership’s wholly owned subsidiaries. In connection with the May 1, 2020 redetermination under the secured revolving credit facility, the borrowing base was reaffirmed at $300.0 million and total commitments will remain at $225.0 million. The borrowing base was reaffirmed, in part, because the assets acquired in the Springbok Acquisition provided support to the Partnership’s existing, pre-acquisition borrowing base. The secured revolving credit facility matures on February 8, 2022. The Partnership intends to request from its lenders an amendment to extend the term of the secured revolving credit facility beyond the current maturity date prior to March 31, 2021.

The secured revolving credit facility contains various affirmative, negative and financial maintenance covenants. These covenants limit the Partnership’s ability to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional debt, make distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, common units, make certain investments and acquisitions, incur certain liens or permit them to exist, enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with another company and transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of assets. The secured revolving credit facility also contains covenants requiring the Partnership to maintain the following financial ratios or to reduce the Partnership’s indebtedness if the Partnership is unable to comply with such ratios: (i) a Debt to EBITDAX Ratio (as defined in the secured revolving credit facility) of not more than 4.0 to 1.0 and (ii) a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of not less than 1.0 to 1.0. The secured revolving credit facility also contains customary events of default, including non-payment, breach of covenants, materially incorrect representations, cross-default, bankruptcy and change of control.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Partnership borrowed an additional $85.5 million and $156.6 million under the secured revolving credit facility and repaid approximately $15.0 million and $85.0 million of the outstanding borrowings, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the Partnership’s outstanding balance was $171.7 million. The Partnership was in compliance with all covenants included in the secured revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, borrowings under the secured revolving credit facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 2.50% or Prime Rate (as defined in the secured revolving credit facility) plus a margin of 1.50%. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the weighted average interest rate on the Partnership’s outstanding borrowings was 3.69%.

NOTE 9—PREFERRED UNITS

In July 2018, the Partnership completed the private placement of 110,000 Series A preferred units to certain affiliates of Apollo Capital Management, L.P. (the “Series A Purchasers”) for $1,000 per Series A preferred unit, resulting in gross proceeds to the Partnership of $110.0 million. Until the conversion of the Series A preferred units into common units or their redemption, holders of the Series A preferred units are entitled to receive cumulative quarterly distributions equal to 7.0% per annum plus accrued and unpaid distributions. In connection with the issuance of the Series A preferred units, the Partnership granted holders of the Series A preferred units board observer rights beginning on the third

anniversary of the original issuance date, and board appointment rights beginning the fourth anniversary of the original issuance date and in the case of events of default with respect to the Series A preferred units.

The Series A preferred units are convertible by the Series A Purchasers after two years at a 30% discount to the issue price, subject to certain conditions. The Partnership may redeem the Series A preferred units at any time. The Series A preferred units may be redeemed for a cash amount per Series A preferred unit equal to the product of (a) the number of outstanding Series A preferred units multiplied by (b) the greatest of (i) an amount (together with all prior distributions made in respect of such Series A preferred unit) necessary to achieve the Minimum IRR (as defined below), (ii) an amount (together with all prior distributions made in respect of such Series A preferred unit) necessary to achieve a return on investment equal to 1.2 times with respect to such Series A preferred unit and (iii) the Series A issue price plus accrued and unpaid distributions.

For purposes of the Series A preferred units, “Minimum IRR” means as of any measurement date: (a) prior to the fifth anniversary of the July 12, 2018 (the “Series A Issuance Date”), a 13.0% internal rate of return with respect to the Series A preferred units; (b) on or after the fifth anniversary of the Series A Issuance Date and prior to the sixth anniversary of the Series A Issuance Date, a 14.0% internal rate of return with respect to the Series A preferred units; and (c) on or after the sixth anniversary of the Series A Issuance Date, a 15.0% internal rate of return with respect to the Series A preferred units.

On February 12, 2020, the Partnership completed the redemption of 55,000 Series A preferred units, representing 50% of the then-outstanding Series A preferred units. The Series A preferred units were redeemed at a price of $1,110.72 per Series A preferred unit for an aggregate redemption price of $61.1 million. As the consideration transferred by the Partnership to redeem the Series A preferred units was greater than 50% of the carrying value of the Series A preferred units as of the redemption date and 50% of the original intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature, a deemed dividend distribution of $5.7 million was taken directly to unitholders’ equity and non-controlling interest during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

The following table summarizes the changes in the number of the Series A preferred units:

NOTE 10—UNITHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND PARTNERSHIP DISTRIBUTIONS

The Partnership has limited partner units. As of June 30, 2020, the Partnership had a total of 36,588,023 common units issued and outstanding and 23,141,181 Class B units outstanding.

In January 2020, the Partnership completed an underwritten public offering of 5,000,000 common units for net proceeds of approximately $73.6 million (the “2020 Equity Offering”). The Partnership used the net proceeds from the 2020 Equity Offering to purchase OpCo common units. The Operating Company in turn used the net proceeds to repay approximately $70.0 million of the outstanding borrowings under the Partnership’s secured revolving credit facility. In connection with the 2020 Equity Offering, certain selling unitholders sold 750,000 common units pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common units. The Partnership did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common units by the selling unitholders.

Basic earnings (loss) per unit (“EPU”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common units by the weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common unit gives effect, when applicable, to unvested restricted units granted under the Partnership’s LTIP for its employees, directors and consultants and potential conversion of Class B units.

The calculation of diluted net loss per unit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 excludes the conversion of Series A preferred units to common units, the conversion of Class B units to common units and 1,512,938 of unvested restricted units because their inclusion in the calculation would be anti-dilutive. The calculation of diluted net loss per unit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 excludes the conversion of Series A preferred units to common units, the conversion of Class B units to common units and 976,684 unvested restricted units because their inclusion in the calculation would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 12—UNIT-BASED COMPENSATION

On September 23, 2018, the General Partner entered into the First Amendment to the LTIP, which increased the number of common units eligible for issuance under the LTIP by 2,500,000 common units for a total of 4,541,600 common units. The Partnership’s LTIP authorizes grants to its employees, directors and consultants. The restricted units issued under the Partnership’s LTIP generally vest in one-third installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the grantee’s continuous service through the applicable vesting date. Compensation expense for such awards will be recognized over the term of the service period on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Management elects not to estimate forfeiture rates and to account for forfeitures in compensation cost when they occur. Compensation expense for consultants is treated in the same manner as that of the employees and directors.

Distributions related to the restricted units are paid concurrently with the Partnership’s distributions for common units. The fair value of the Partnership’s restricted units issued under the LTIP to the Partnership’s employees, directors and consultants is determined by utilizing the market value of the Partnership’s common units on the respective grant date. The following table presents a summary of the Partnership’s unvested restricted units.

Overview

We are a Delaware limited partnership formed in 2015 to own and acquire mineral and royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties throughout the United States. Effective as of September 24, 2018, we have elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes. As an owner of mineral and royalty interests, we are entitled to a portion of the revenues received from the production of oil, natural gas and associated NGLs from the acreage underlying our interests, net of post-production expenses and taxes. We are not obligated to fund drilling and completion costs, lease operating expenses or plugging and abandonment costs at the end of a well’s productive life. Our primary business objective is to provide increasing cash distributions to unitholders resulting from acquisitions from third parties, our Sponsors and the Contributing Parties and from organic growth through the continued development by working interest owners of the properties in which we own an interest.

As of June 30, 2020, we owned mineral and royalty interests in approximately 9.0 million gross acres and overriding royalty interests in approximately 4.6 million gross acres, with approximately 60% of our aggregate acres located in the Permian Basin, Mid-Continent and Bakken/Williston Basin. We refer to these non-cost-bearing interests collectively as our “mineral and royalty interests.” As of June 30, 2020, over 98% of the acreage subject to our mineral and royalty interests was leased to working interest owners, including 100% of our overriding royalty interests, and substantially all of those leases were held by production. Our mineral and royalty interests are located in 28 states and in every major onshore basin across the continental United States and include ownership in over 96,000 gross wells, including over 40,000 wells in the Permian Basin.

Recent Developments

Springbok Acquisition

On April 17, 2020, we and the Operating Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity interests in Springbok Energy Partners, LLC and Springbok Energy Partners II, LLC (the “Springbok Acquisition”). The aggregate consideration for the Springbok Acquisition consisted of (i) approximately $95.0 million in cash, which was funded by borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility, (ii) the issuance of 2,224,358 common units and (iii) the issuance of 2,497,134 OpCo common units and an equal number of Class B units. At the time of the Springbok Acquisition, the acreage acquired had over 90 operators on 2,160 net royalty acres across core areas of the Delaware Basin, DJ Basin, Haynesville, STACK, Eagle Ford and other leading basins.

Table of Contents

Borrowing Base Redetermination

In connection with the May 1, 2020 redetermination under the secured revolving credit facility, the borrowing base was reaffirmed at $300.0 million and total commitments will remain at $225.0 million. The borrowing base was reaffirmed, in part, because the assets acquired in the Springbok Acquisition provided support to our existing, pre-acquisition borrowing base.

Joint Venture

In July 2020, in connection with the joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) with Springbok SKR Capital Company, LLC and Rivercrest Capital Partners, LP, we paid capital contributions of $0.5 million.

Second Quarter Distributions

On August 5, 2020, we paid a quarterly cash distribution on the Series A preferred units of approximately $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Each holder of Class B units has paid five cents per Class B unit to us as an additional capital contribution for the Class B units (such aggregate amount, the “Class B Contribution”) in exchange for Class B units. Each holder of Class B units is entitled to receive cash distributions equal to 2.0% per quarter on their respective Class B Contribution. On August 5, 2020, we paid a quarterly cash distribution to each Class B unitholder, resulting in a total quarterly distribution of $23,141 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

On July 24, 2020, the General Partner’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”) declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.13 per common unit for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The distribution will be paid on August 10, 2020 to common unitholders and OpCo common unitholders of record as of the close of business on August 3, 2020.

Business Environment

COVID-19 Pandemic and Impact on Global Demand for Oil and Natural Gas

The global spread of COVID-19 created significant volatility, uncertainty, and economic disruption during the first six months of 2020. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (the “WHO”) declared the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The pandemic has reached more than 200 countries and has resulted in widespread adverse impacts on the global economy, our oil, natural gas, and NGL operators and other parties with whom we have business relations, including a significant reduction in the global demand for oil and natural gas. This significant decline in demand accelerated following the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, raising concerns about global storage capacity. The resulting supply and demand imbalance has led to a significantly weaker outlook for oil and gas producers and is having a disruptive impact on the oil and natural gas industry. Globally, these conditions have led to significant economic contraction.

Our first priority in our response to this crisis has been the health and safety of our employees, the employees of our business counterparties and the community in which we operate. To address these concerns, we have modified certain business practices (including those related to employee travel, employee work locations, and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences) to conform to government restrictions and best practices encouraged by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the WHO and other governmental and regulatory authorities. In mid-March, we restricted access to our offices to only essential employees, and directed the remainder of our employees to work from home to the extent possible. Beginning in mid-May we opened our offices to employees on a voluntary basis, with employees having the option to work from our office or from home. These restrictions have had minimal impact on our operations to date and have allowed us to maintain the engagement and connectivity of our personnel, as well as minimize the number of employees in the office.

There is considerable uncertainty regarding the extent to which COVID-19 will continue to spread and the extent and duration of governmental and other measures implemented to try to slow the spread of the virus, such as large-scale travel bans and restrictions, border closures, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business and government shutdowns.

Table of Contents

State and local authorities have implemented multi-step policies with the goal of re-opening. However, certain jurisdictions have begun re-opening only to return to restrictions in the face of increases in new COVID-19 cases. One of the largest impacts of the pandemic has been a significant reduction in global demand for oil and, to a lesser extent, natural gas. This significant decline in demand has been met with a sharp decline in oil prices which has been exacerbated by the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries. Although OPEC finalized an agreement in April 2020 to cut oil production by 9.7 million barrels per day during May and June 2020, and agreed in June 2020 to extend such production cuts until the end of July 2020, crude oil prices have remained depressed as a result of an increasingly utilized global storage network and the decrease in crude oil demand due to COVID-19. The resulting supply and demand imbalance is having disruptive impacts on the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry and on other related industries. These industry conditions, coupled with those resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, have led to significant global economic contraction generally and in our industry in particular.

Oil and natural gas prices have historically been volatile; however, the volatility in the prices for these commodities has substantially increased as a result of COVID-19, the OPEC announcements mentioned above and ongoing storage capacity concerns. Oil prices declined sharply in April 2020 and have remained low. Although strip pricing for natural gas has increased meaningfully, the impact of these recent developments on our business and the oil and gas industry is unpredictable. Although we derived approximately 37% of our revenues and 58% of our production (6:1) from natural gas for the second quarter of 2020, which we believe presents some downside protection against depressed oil prices, we expect that low oil prices and commodity price volatility will continue through the third quarter of 2020 and perhaps longer.

In April 2020, we received notices from two operators regarding well shut-ins and curtailments of production on properties in which we own an interest. The properties were primarily located in the Eagle Ford Shale, and the production attributable to such properties on a Boe/d basis (6:1) represented approximately one percent of our total production for the first quarter of 2020. We received subsequent notice that the curtailment on all Eagle Ford Shale production has ceased and production resumed, effective June 1, 2020. We also received notifications of well shut-ins and curtailment in the second quarter of 2020 from additional operators and the production attributable to such properties on a Boe/d basis (6:1) accounted for less than one percent of our total production for the second quarter of 2020. We expect that as the supply and demand imbalance resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak and the OPEC announcements mentioned above continues, and as oil storage facilities reach capacity and/or purchasers of crude products cancel previous orders, more of our operators may adjust or reduce their drilling activities, which could have an adverse effect on our business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations in the third quarter of 2020. Due to the expected significant decline in the average of the trailing twelve month first-of-month pricing used in the full-cost ceiling test, we expect to record an impairment to our oil and natural gas properties in the third quarter of 2020 as a result of the full-cost ceiling limitation.

The ultimate impacts of COVID-19 and the volatility currently being experienced in the oil and natural gas markets on our business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, including, among others, the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the consequences of governmental and other measures designed to prevent the spread of the virus, the development of effective treatments, the duration of the outbreak, actions taken by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, governmental authorities and other thirds parties, workforce availability, and the timing and extent to which normal economic and operating conditions resume. For additional discussion regarding the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” in this report.

Table of Contents

Commodity Prices and Demand

Oil and natural gas prices have been historically volatile and may continue to be volatile in the future. As noted above, the supply and demand imbalance resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak and various OPEC announcements have created increased volatility in oil and natural gas prices. The table below demonstrates such volatility for the periods presented as reported by the United States Energy Information Administration (“EIA”).


	Six Months Ended June 30, 2020				Six Months Ended June 30, 2019
	High		Low		High		Low
Oil ($/Bbl)	$	63.27	$	(36.98)	$	66.24	$	46.31
Natural gas ($/MMBtu)	$	2.17	$	1.42	$	4.25	$	2.27

On July 31, 2020, the West Texas Intermediate posted price for crude oil was $40.10 per Bbl and the Henry Hub spot market price of natural gas was $1.83 per MMBtu.

The following table, as reported by the EIA, sets forth the average daily prices for oil and natural gas.


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Natural gas ($/MMBtu)	$	1.70	$	2.57	$	1.80	$	2.74

Rig Count

Drilling on our acreage is dependent upon the exploration and production companies that lease our acreage. As such, we monitor rig counts in an effort to identify existing and future leasing and drilling activity on our acreage.

The Baker Hughes United States Rotary Rig count decreased by 72.8% from 967 active rigs as of June 30, 2019 to 263 active rigs as of June 30, 2020.

According to the Baker Hughes United States Rotary Rig count, rig activity in the 28 states in which we own mineral and royalty interests included 259 active rigs as of June 30, 2020 compared to 960 active rigs as of June 30, 2019. Rig activity in the 28 states in which we own mineral and royalty interests declined further to 247 active rigs as of July 31, 2020. The decrease in rig count is directly related to the COVID-19 outbreak and international supply and demand imbalances. See Business Environment — COVID-19 Pandemic and Impact on Global Demand for Oil and Natural Gas for further discussion.

The following table summarizes the number of active rigs operating on our acreage by United States basins and producing regions for the periods indicated:

Sources of Our Revenue

Our revenues are derived from royalty payments we receive from our operators based on the sale of oil, natural gas and NGL production, as well as the sale of NGLs that are extracted from natural gas during processing. Our revenues

Table of Contents

may vary significantly from period to period as a result of changes in volumes of production sold or changes in commodity prices.

The following table presents the breakdown of our operating income for the following periods:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019

Lease bonus and other income	1	%	4	%	1	%	2	%
	100	%	100	%	100	%	100	%

We entered into oil and natural gas commodity derivative agreements with Frost Bank, beginning January 1, 2018 which extend through June 2022, to establish, in advance, a price for the sale of a portion of the oil, natural gas and NGLs produced from our mineral and royalty interests.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Available for Distribution

Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution are used as supplemental non-GAAP financial measures (as defined below) by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution are useful because they allow us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate cash flow available to pay distributions to our unitholders.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), net of non-cash unit-based compensation, change in fair value of open commodity derivative instruments, transaction costs, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, income taxes, interest expense and depreciation and depletion expense. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss) as determined by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. We define cash available for distribution as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash needed for debt service and other contractual obligations, tax obligations, fixed charges and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the Board of Directors may determine is appropriate.

Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), oil, natural gas and NGL revenues, net cash flows provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results to Our Historical Results

Our historical financial condition and results of operations may not be comparable, either from period to period or going forward, to our future financial condition and results of operations, for the reasons described below.

Ongoing Acquisition Activities

Acquisitions are an important part of our growth strategy, and we expect to pursue acquisitions of mineral and royalty interests from third parties, affiliates of our Sponsors and the Contributing Parties. As a part of these efforts, we often engage in discussions with potential sellers or other parties regarding the possible purchase of or investment in mineral and royalty interests, including in connection with a dropdown of assets from affiliates of our Sponsors and the Contributing Parties. Such efforts may involve participation by us in processes that have been made public and involve a number of potential buyers or investors, commonly referred to as "auction" processes, as well as situations in which we believe we are the only party or one of a limited number of parties who are in negotiations with the potential seller or other party. These acquisition and investment efforts often involve assets which, if acquired or constructed, could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Material acquisitions that would impact the comparability of our results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 include the acquisition of all of the equity interests in subsidiaries of PEP I Holdings, LLC, PEP II Holdings, LLC and PEP III Holdings, LLC that own oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests (the “Phillips Acquisition”), the acquisition of certain mineral and royalty assets from certain affiliates of Buckhorn Resources GP, LLC (the “Buckhorn Acquisition”) and the Springbok Acquisition.

Table of Contents

Further, the affiliates of our Sponsors and Contributing Parties have no obligation to sell any assets to us or to accept any offer that we may make for such assets, and we may decide not to acquire such assets even if such parties offer them to us. We may decide to fund any acquisition, including any potential dropdowns, with cash, common units, other equity securities, proceeds from borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility or the issuance of debt securities, or any combination thereof. In addition to acquisitions, we also consider from time to time divestitures that may benefit us and our unitholders.

We typically do not announce a transaction until after we have executed a definitive agreement. Past experience has demonstrated that discussions and negotiations regarding a potential transaction can advance or terminate in a short period of time. Moreover, the closing of any transaction for which we have entered into a definitive agreement may be subject to customary and other closing conditions, which may not ultimately be satisfied or waived. Accordingly, we can give no assurance that our current or future acquisition or investment efforts will be successful or that our strategic asset divestitures will be completed. Although we expect the acquisitions and investments we make to be accretive in the long term, we can provide no assurance that our expectations will ultimately be realized. We will not know the immediate results of any acquisition until after the acquisition closes, and we will not know the long term results for some time thereafter.

Impairment of Oil and Natural Gas Properties

Accounting rules require that we periodically review the carrying value of our properties for possible impairment. Based on specific market factors and circumstances at the time of prospective impairment reviews, and the continuing evaluation of development plans, production data, economics and other factors, we may be required to write down the carrying value of our properties. The net capitalized costs of proved oil and natural gas properties are subject to a full-cost ceiling limitation for which the costs are not allowed to exceed their related estimated future net revenues discounted at 10%. To the extent capitalized costs of evaluated oil and natural gas properties, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment, exceed estimated discounted future net revenues of proved oil and natural gas reserves, the excess capitalized costs are charged to expense. The risk that we will be required to recognize impairments of our oil and natural gas properties increases during periods of low commodity prices. In addition, impairments would occur if we were to experience sufficient downward adjustments to our estimated proved reserves or the present value of estimated future net revenues. An impairment recognized in one period may not be reversed in a subsequent period even if higher oil and natural gas prices increase the cost center ceiling applicable to the subsequent period.

We recorded an impairment on our oil and natural gas properties of $65.5 million and $136.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The impairment recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was due to the recent significant decline in oil and natural gas prices, as well as longer-term commodity price outlooks, related to reduced demand for oil and natural gas as a result of COVID-19, the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries and other supply factors. After evaluating these external factors, we determined that significant drilling uncertainty existed regarding our proved undeveloped (“PUD”) reserves that were included in our total estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2019, as well as our unevaluated oil and natural gas properties. Specifically, with respect to our PUD reserves (which accounted for approximately 6.1% of total estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2019), we determined that we did not have reasonable certainty as to the timing of the development of the PUD reserves and, therefore, recorded an impairment on such properties in the first quarter of 2020. We similarly recorded an impairment on the value of our unevaluated oil and natural gas properties in the first quarter of 2020, which primarily were acquired in various acquisitions since our initial public offering. There were no additional impairments to unevaluated properties in the second quarter of 2020.

We recorded an impairment on our oil and natural gas properties of $28.1 million and $30.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, primarily due to a decline in the 12-month average price of oil and natural gas.

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, we do not intend to book proved undeveloped reserves going forward. As such, additional impairment charges could be recorded in connection with future acquisitions. Further, due to the expected significant decline in the average of the trailing twelve month first-of-month pricing used in the full-cost ceiling test, we expect to record an impairment to our oil and natural gas properties

Table of Contents

in the third quarter of 2020 as a result of the full-cost ceiling limitation. If the expected significant decline in the price of oil, natural gas and NGLs continues through future periods or if prices decrease further in future periods, we may be required to record additional impairments as a result of the full-cost ceiling limitation.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019

Oil, Natural Gas and NGL Revenues

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, our oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $16.8 million, a decrease of $11.1 million from $27.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The significant decrease in oil, natural gas and NGL revenues was directly related to the decrease in the average prices we received for oil, natural gas and NGL production for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as discussed below. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in production associated with various acquisitions throughout the 2019 and 2020 periods.

Our revenues are a function of oil, natural gas, and NGL production volumes sold and average prices received for those volumes. The production volumes were 1,260,619 Boe or 14,254 Boe/d, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of 186,214 Boe or 2,447 Boe/d, from 1,074,405 Boe or 11,807 Boe/d, for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in production was primarily attributable to production associated with the Springbok Acquisition, which accounted for 171,155 Boe.

Table of Contents

Our operators received an average of $25.40 per Bbl of oil, $1.43 per Mcf of natural gas and $7.54 per Bbl of NGL for the volumes sold during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $57.55 per Bbl of oil, $2.44 per Mcf of natural gas and $19.55 per Bbl of NGL for the volumes sold during the three months ended June 30, 2019. The three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased 55.9% or $32.15 per Bbl of oil and 41.4% or $1.01 per Mcf of natural gas as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. This change is consistent with prices experienced in the market, specifically when compared to the EIA average price decreases of 53.3% or $31.92 per Bbl of oil and 33.9% or $0.87 per Mcf of natural gas for the comparable periods.

Lease Bonus and Other Income

Lease bonus and other income was $0.07 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $1.2 million from $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The significant decrease in lease bonus and other income is ultimately a result of the current volatility and uncertainty in the oil and gas market, which has discouraged operators from drilling new wells.

(Loss) Gain on Commodity Derivative Instruments

Loss on commodity derivative instruments for the three months ended June 30, 2020 included $6.9 million of mark-to-market losses and $2.9 million of gains on the settlement of commodity derivative instruments compared to $2.6 million of mark-to-market gains and $0.1 million of gains on the settlement of commodity derivative instruments for the three months ended June 30, 2019. We recorded a mark-to-market loss for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of the increase in strip pricing from the three months ended March 31, 2020 to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The mark-to-market gain recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was due to the decrease in the price of oil and natural gas contracts relative to the fixed-price in our open derivative contracts.

Production and Ad Valorem Taxes

Production and ad valorem taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $1.5 million, a decrease of $0.4 million from $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in production and ad valorem taxes was primarily related to the significant decrease in the average prices we received for oil, natural gas and NGL production for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Depreciation and Depletion Expense

Depreciation and depletion expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 remained relatively flat at $12.0 million compared to $12.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Depletion is the amount of cost basis of oil and natural gas properties at the beginning of a period attributable to the volume of hydrocarbons extracted during such period, calculated on a units-of-production basis. Estimates of proved developed reserves are a major component in the calculation of depletion. Our average depletion rate per barrel was $9.48 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $1.97 per barrel from the $11.45 average depletion rate per barrel for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the depletion rate was due to the significant impairment that was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2019 and the three months ended March 31, 2020, which significantly reduced our net capitalized oil and natural gas properties.

Table of Contents

Impairment of Oil, Natural Gas and Natural Gas Liquids Expense

We recorded an impairment expense on our oil and natural gas properties of $65.5 million and $28.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The impairment recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2020 was due to the recent significant decline in the trailing twelve month average of oil and natural gas prices, related to reduced demand for oil and natural gas as a result of COVID-19, the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, and other supply factors. The impairment recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily a result of a decline in the 12-month average price of oil and natural gas.

Marketing and Other Deductions

Our marketing and other deductions include product marketing expense, which is a post-production expense. Marketing and other deductions for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $2.0 million, an increase of $0.3 million from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which was attributable to the Springbok Acquisition.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $6.9 million, an increase of $0.7 million from $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Included within general and administrative expenses are non-cash expenses for unit-based compensation as a result of the amortization of restricted units that have been issued by us over various periods. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to a $0.4 million increase in unit-based compensation expense and cash general and administrative expenses resulting from an increase in costs associated with company growth.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.7 million compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to debt incurred to fund the Springbok Acquisition. The increase in interest expense was partially offset by the repayment of $15.0 million in debt during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and the decline in the weighted average interest rate from 4.71% during the three months ended June 30, 2019 to 3.18% during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Oil, Natural Gas and NGL Revenues

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, our oil, natural gas and NGL revenues were $42.4 million, a decrease of $8.3 million from $50.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The significant decrease in oil, natural gas and NGL revenues was directly related to the decrease in the average prices we received for oil, natural gas and NGL production for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as discussed below. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in production associated with various acquisitions throughout the 2019 and 2020 periods.

Our revenues are a function of oil, natural gas, and NGL production volumes sold and average prices received for those volumes. The production volumes were 2,476,181 Boe or 13,605 Boe/d, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of 498,899 Boe or 2,681 Boe/d, from 1,977,282 Boe or 10,924 Boe/d, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in production was primarily attributable to production associated with the Springbok Acquisition, which accounted for 171,155 Boe. Also contributing to the increase was increased production associated with the Haymaker assets, which accounted for 114,016 Boe and the Phillips assets, which accounted for 104,954 Boe.

Our operators received an average of $34.90 per Bbl of oil, $1.67 per Mcf of natural gas and $10.45 per Bbl of NGL for the volumes sold during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $54.51 per Bbl of oil, $2.55 per Mcf of natural gas and $19.62 per Bbl of NGL for the volumes sold during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased 36.0% or $19.61 per Bbl of oil and 34.5% or $0.88 per Mcf of natural gas as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. This change is consistent with prices experienced in the market, specifically when

compared to the EIA average price decreases of 36.3% or $20.81 per Bbl of oil and 34.3% or $0.94 per Mcf of natural gas for the comparable periods.

Lease Bonus and Other Income

Lease bonus and other income was $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $1.1 million from $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The significant decrease in lease bonus and other income is ultimately a result of the current volatility and uncertainty in the oil and gas market, which has discouraged operators from drilling new wells.

Gain on commodity derivative instruments for the six months ended June 30, 2020 included $2.1 million of mark-to-market gains and $4.0 million of gains on the settlement of commodity derivative instruments compared to $2.6 million of mark-to-market losses and $0.3 million of gains on the settlement of commodity derivative instruments for the six months ended June 30, 2019. We recorded a mark-to-market gain for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of the decrease in the price of oil and natural gas contracts relative to the fixed-price in our open derivative contracts, which was partially offset by the increase in volumes hedged due to the Springbok Acquisition. We recorded a mark-to-market loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as a result of the increase in volumes hedged due to Haymaker Acquisition, partially offset by the decrease in the price of oil and natural gas contracts relative to the fixed-price in our open derivative contracts.

Production and Ad Valorem Taxes

Production and ad valorem taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $3.1 million, a decrease of $0.4 million from $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in production and ad valorem taxes was primarily related to the significant decrease in the average prices we received for oil, natural gas and NGL production for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Depreciation and Depletion Expense

Depreciation and depletion expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $25.3 million, an increase of $2.7 million from $22.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in the depreciation and depletion expense was primarily attributable to the acquisition of various mineral and royalty interests in Oklahoma, the Buckhorn Acquisition, and the Springbok Acquisition which together added approximately $160.9 million of depletable costs to the full-cost pool.

Depletion is the amount of cost basis of oil and natural gas properties at the beginning of a period attributable to the volume of hydrocarbons extracted during such period, calculated on a units-of-production basis. Estimates of proved developed reserves are a major component in the calculation of depletion. Our average depletion rate per barrel was $10.16 for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $1.26 per barrel from the $11.42 average depletion rate per barrel for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the depletion rate was due to the significant impairment that was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2019 and the three months March 31, 2020, which significantly reduced our net capitalized oil and natural gas properties.

Impairment of Oil, Natural Gas and Natural Gas Liquids Expense

We recorded an impairment expense on our oil and natural gas properties of $136.5 million and $30.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The impairment recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was due to the recent significant decline in oil and natural gas prices, as well as longer-term commodity price outlooks, related to reduced demand for oil and natural gas as a result of COVID-19, the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, and other supply factors. After evaluating these external factors, we determined that significant drilling uncertainty existed regarding our PUD reserves that were included in our total estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2019, as well as our unevaluated oil and natural gas properties. Specifically, with respect to our PUD reserves (which accounted for approximately 6.1% of total estimated proved reserves as of December 31, 2019), we determined that we did not have reasonable certainty as to the timing of the development of the PUD reserves and, therefore, recorded an impairment on such properties in the first quarter of 2020. We similarly recorded an impairment on the value of our unevaluated oil and natural gas properties in the first quarter of 2020, which primarily were acquired in various acquisitions since our initial public offering. There were no additional impairments to unevaluated properties in the second quarter of 2020. We do not intend to book PUD reserves going forward. The impairment recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily a result of a decline in the 12-month average price of oil and natural gas.

Marketing and Other Deductions

Our marketing and other deductions include product marketing expense, which is a post-production expense. Marketing and other deductions for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $4.2 million, an increase of $0.6 million from $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in marketing and other deductions was primarily attributable to the Springbok Acquisition, which represents $0.3 million of the overall increase.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $13.4 million, an increase of $1.8 million from $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Included within general and administrative expenses are non-cash expenses for unit-based compensation as a result of the amortization of restricted units that have been issued by us over various periods. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to a $0.8 million increase in unit-based compensation expense and cash general and administrative expenses resulting from increases in salaries and wages and our costs associated with company growth.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.1 million compared to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to debt incurred to fund the partial redemption of the Series A preferred units and the Springbok Acquisition, which was partially offset by the repayment of $85.0 million in debt during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the decline in the weighted average interest rate from 4.74% during the six months ended June 30, 2019 to 3.69% during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and equity and debt financings and our primary uses of cash are for distributions to our unitholders and for growth capital expenditures, including the acquisition of mineral and royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties. Total commitments under our secured revolving credit facility are set at $225.0 million and the borrowing base is set at $300.0 million. The secured revolving credit facility permits aggregate commitments under the secured revolving credit facility to be increased to up to $500.0 million, subject to the limitations of our borrowing base and the satisfaction of certain conditions and the procurement of additional commitments from new or existing lenders, to be used for general partnership purposes, including working capital and acquisitions, among other things. As of July 31, 2020, we had an outstanding balance of $172.2 million under our secured revolving credit facility.

Cash Distribution Policy

The limited liability company agreement of the Operating Company requires it to distribute all of its cash on hand at the end of each quarter in an amount equal to its available cash for such quarter. In turn, our partnership agreement requires us to distribute all of our cash on hand at the end of each quarter in an amount equal to our available cash for such quarter. Available cash for each quarter will be determined by the Board of Directors following the end of such quarter. “Available cash,” as used in this context, is defined in the limited liability company agreement of the Operating Company and our partnership agreement. We expect that the Operating Company’s available cash for each quarter will generally equal its Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter, less cash needed for debt service and other contractual obligations and fixed charges and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the Board of Directors may determine is appropriate, and we expect that our available cash for each quarter will generally equal our Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter (and will be our proportional share of the available cash distributed by the Operating Company for that quarter), less cash needs for debt service and other contractual obligations and fixed charges, tax obligations and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the Board of Directors may determine is appropriate.

In light of the unprecedented global economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the related impact to the United States oil and natural gas markets and the potential for further curtailments of production, during its determination of “available cash” for the second quarter of 2020, the Board of Directors approved the allocation of 25% of our cash available for distribution for the second quarter of 2020 for the repayment of $2.5 million in outstanding borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility. With respect to future quarters, the Board of Directors may continue to allocate cash generated by our business to the repayment of outstanding borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility or in other manners in which the Board of Directors determines to be appropriate at the time, and the Board of Directors may further change its policy with respect to cash distributions in the future.

We do not currently maintain a material reserve of cash for the purpose of maintaining stability or growth in our quarterly distribution, nor do we intend to incur debt to pay quarterly distributions, although the Board of Directors may change this policy.

It is our intent, subject to market conditions, to finance acquisitions of mineral and royalty interests that increase our asset base largely through external sources, such as borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility and the issuance of equity and debt securities. For example, we financed the Phillips Acquisition with equity consideration of 9,400,000 OpCo common units and an equal number of Class B units, the Buckhorn Acquisition with equity consideration of 2,169,348 OpCo common units and an equal number of Class B units, and the Springbok Acquisition with a combination of cash consideration funded with borrowings of approximately $95.0 million under our secured revolving credit facility and equity consideration of 2,224,358 common units and 2,497,134 OpCo common units and an equal number of Class B units. The Board of Directors may choose to reserve a portion of cash generated from operations to finance such acquisitions as well. We do not currently intend to (i) maintain excess distribution coverage for the purpose of maintaining stability or growth in our quarterly distribution, (ii) otherwise reserve cash for distributions or (iii) incur debt to pay quarterly distributions, although the Board of Directors may do so if they believe it is warranted.

On August 5, 2020, we paid a quarterly cash distribution on the Series A preferred units of approximately $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

On August 5, 2020, we paid a quarterly cash distribution to each Class B unitholder equal to 2.0% of such unitholder’s respective Class B Contribution, resulting in a total quarterly distribution of $23,141 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Operating Activities

Our operating cash flow is impacted by many variables, the most significant of which are changes in oil, natural gas and NGL production volumes due to acquisitions or other external factors and changes in prices for oil, natural gas and NGLs. Prices for these commodities are determined primarily by prevailing market conditions. Regional and worldwide economic activity, weather and other substantially variable factors influence market conditions for these products. These factors are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. Cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $35.5 million, a decrease of $3.6 million compared to $39.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to the decrease in the average prices we received for oil, natural gas and NGL production for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $87.1 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we used $87.4 million primarily to fund the Springbok Acquisition and $1.3 million to fund the capital commitments of the Joint Venture, partially offset by a $0.2 million cash distribution received in connection with the Joint Venture. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we used $1.0 million to fund the Phillips Acquisition and $0.4 million to fund the remodeling of our office space.

Financing Activities

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $50.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $36.6 million in cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 consists of $156.6 million of additional borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility and $73.6 million in proceeds from the 2020 Equity Offering. Cash flows provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were partially offset by $85.0 million used to repay borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility, $61.1 million to fund the redemption of Series A preferred units, $33.8 million of distributions paid to holders of common units and OpCo common units, Series A preferred units and Class B units and $0.3 million paid in connection with the redemption of Class B units. Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily consists of $36.3 million of distributions paid to holders of common units and OpCo common units, Series A preferred units and Class B units and $0.7 million of issuance costs paid on Series A preferred units, partially offset by $0.5 million in contributions from our Class B unitholders.

Capital Expenditures

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we paid approximately $87.4 million primarily in connection with the Springbok Acquisition. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we paid approximately $1.0 million in connection with the Phillips Acquisition.

Indebtedness

We maintain a secured revolving credit facility that is secured by substantially all of our assets, the Operating Company’s assets and the assets of ours and the Operating Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries. Availability under our secured revolving credit facility equals the lesser of the aggregate maximum commitments of the lenders and the borrowing base. Total commitments under our secured revolving credit facility are set at $225.0 million and the borrowing base is set at $300.0 million. The secured revolving credit facility permits aggregate commitments under our secured revolving credit facility to be increased to up to $500.0 million, subject to the limitations of our borrowing base and the satisfaction of certain conditions and the procurement of additional commitments from new or existing lenders. The borrowing base will be redetermined semiannually on or about May 1 and November 1 of each year based on the value of our oil and natural gas properties and the oil and natural gas properties of our wholly owned subsidiaries. In connection with the May 1, 2020 redetermination under the secured revolving credit facility, the borrowing base was reaffirmed at $300.0 million and total commitments remained at $225.0 million. The borrowing base was reaffirmed, in part, because the assets acquired in the Springbok Acquisition provided support to our existing, pre-acquisition borrowing base. In connection with any future redetermination, it is possible that the borrowing base will be reduced as a result of a decrease in the value of the assets underlying the borrowing base in connection with a sustained decrease in oil and natural gas prices. Even in the event that our borrowing base is reduced and assuming that the aggregate maximum commitments of the lenders under the secured revolving credit facility do not change, until such reduction or series of reductions in the aggregate is greater than $75.0 million, our ability to borrow would not be impacted because until that point the borrowing base would exceed the current commitments under the secured revolving credit facility. The secured revolving credit facility matures on February 8, 2022. We intend to request from our lenders an amendment to extend the term of the secured revolving credit facility beyond the current maturity date prior to March 31, 2021.

The secured revolving credit facility contains various affirmative, negative and financial maintenance covenants. These covenants limit our ability to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional debt, make distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, common units, make certain investments and acquisitions, incur certain liens or permit them to exist, enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with another company and transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of assets. The secured revolving credit facility also contains covenants requiring us to maintain the following financial ratios or to reduce our indebtedness if we are unable to comply with such ratios: (i) a Debt to EBITDAX Ratio (as more fully defined in the secured revolving credit facility) of not more than 4.0 to 1.0; and (ii) a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of not less than 1.0 to 1.0. The secured revolving credit facility also contains customary events of default, including non-payment, breach of covenants, materially incorrect representations, cross-default, bankruptcy and change of control. As of June 30, 2020, we had outstanding borrowings of $171.7 million under the secured revolving credit facility and $53.3 million of available capacity (or approximately $128.3 million if aggregate commitments were equal to our current borrowing base). We were in compliance with all covenants included in the secured revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2020.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk

Our major market risk exposure is in the pricing applicable to the oil, natural gas and NGL production of our operators. Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for crude oil and spot market prices applicable to our natural gas production. Pricing for oil, natural gas and NGL production has been volatile and unpredictable for several years, and we expect commodity prices to be even more volatile in the future as a result of COVID-19, ongoing international supply and demand imbalances and limited international storage capacity. The prices that our operators receive for production depend on many factors outside of our or their control. To reduce the impact of fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices on our revenues, we entered into commodity derivative contracts to reduce our exposure to price volatility of oil and natural gas. The counterparty to the contracts is an unrelated third party.

Our commodity derivative contracts consist of fixed price swaps, under which we receive a fixed price for the contract and pay a floating market price to the counterparty over a specified period for a contracted volume.

Our oil fixed price swap transactions are settled based upon the average daily prices for the calendar month of the contract period, and our natural gas fixed price swap transactions are settled based upon the last day settlement of the first nearby month futures contract of the contract period. Settlement for oil derivative contracts occurs in the succeeding month and natural gas derivative contracts are settled in the production month.

Because we have not designated any of our derivative contracts as hedges for accounting purposes, changes in fair values of our derivative contracts will be recognized as gains and losses in current period earnings. As a result, our current period earnings may be significantly affected by changes in the fair value of our commodity derivative contracts. Changes in fair value are principally measured based on future prices as of period-end compared to the contract price. See Note 4—Derivatives to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our commodity derivatives.

Counterparty and Customer Credit Risk

Our derivative contracts expose us to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties. While we do not require our counterparties to our derivative contracts to post collateral, we do evaluate the credit standing of such counterparties as we deem appropriate. This evaluation includes reviewing a counterparty’s credit rating and latest financial information. As of June 30, 2020, we had one counterparty to our derivative contracts, which is also one of the lenders under our secured revolving credit facility.

As an owner of mineral and royalty interests, we have no control over the volumes or method of sale of oil, natural gas and NGLs produced and sold from the underlying properties. It is believed that the loss of any single purchaser would not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Interest Rate Risk

We will have exposure to changes in interest rates on our indebtedness. As of June 30, 2020, we had total borrowings outstanding under our secured revolving credit facility of $171.7 million. The impact of a 1% increase in the interest rate on this amount of debt would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.7 million annually, assuming that our indebtedness remained constant throughout the year. We do not currently have any interest rate hedges in place.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of management of our general partner, including our general partner’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the

Table of Contents

end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our general partner’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon that evaluation, our general partner’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020.

Remediation of Material Weakness

As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting during the preparation of such report. We lacked sufficient oversight of our full cost ceiling calculation, which is a component of our financial reporting requirements. During the second quarter of 2020, we completed the implementation of the procedures and controls to remediate this material weakness, which consisted of installing redundant levels of internal review of the full cost ceiling calculation prior to review by our independent registered public accounting firm.

During the second quarter of 2020, we completed our testing of effectiveness of the implemented procedures and controls and found them to be effective. As a result, we have concluded the material weakness has been remediated as of June 30, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Aside from the change in procedures related to the remediation of the material weakness described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risks under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which risk factors could also be affected by the potential effects of the outbreak of COVID-19 discussed below. These risks are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

The ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and the related impact on oil and natural gas prices have adversely affected, and could continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The ongoing COVID-19 outbreak, which the WHO declared a pandemic and the United States Government declared a national emergency in March 2020, has reached more than 200 countries and has continued to be a rapidly evolving situation. The pandemic has resulted in widespread adverse impacts on the global economy and financial markets, including record economic contraction in the United States, and we and our third-party operators and other parties with whom we have business relations have experienced disrupted business operations as a result. For example, in mid-March, we had to limit access to our administrative offices and took certain other precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk to our employees, our business and our community. Beginning in mid-May, we opened our offices to employees on a voluntary basis, with employees having the option to work from the office or from home. There is considerable uncertainty regarding the extent to which COVID-19 will continue to spread and the extent and duration of governmental and other measures implemented to try to slow the spread of the virus, such as large-scale travel bans and restrictions, border closures, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business and government shutdowns. State and local authorities have implemented multi-step policies with the goal of re-opening. However, certain jurisdictions have begun re-opening only to return to restrictions in the face of increases in new COVID-19 cases. In addition, our employees have the option to work remotely, which could increase the risk of security breaches or other cyber-incidents or attacks, loss of data, fraud and other disruptions.

The impact of the pandemic, including the resulting significant reduction in global demand for oil and, to a lesser extent natural gas, coupled with the sharp decline in oil prices following the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, has led to significant global economic contraction generally and in our industry in particular. Although OPEC finalized an agreement in April 2020 to cut oil production by 9.7 million barrels per day during May and June 2020, and agreed in June 2020 to extend such production cuts until the end of July 2020, crude oil prices have remained depressed as a result of an increasingly utilized global storage network and the decrease in crude oil demand due to COVID-19. Oil and natural gas prices are expected to continue to be volatile as a result of these events and the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak, and as changes in oil and natural gas inventories, industry demand and economic performance are reported. The current price environment has caused some of our operators’ wells to become uneconomic, which has resulted, and may result in the future, in suspension of production from those wells or a significant reduction in, or no royalty revenues from, existing production. Some operators may also attempt to shut in producing wells and avoid lease termination or payment of shut-in royalties by claiming force majeure, if provided for in the applicable lease. The curtailment of production or the shut-in of wells as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and the drop in oil prices are both outside of our control, and the materialization of either circumstance could have a significant impact on our result of operations. For example, in April 2020, we received notices from two operators regarding well shut-ins and curtailments of production on properties in which we own an interest. The properties were primarily located in the Eagle Ford Shale, and the production attributable to such properties on a Boe/d basis (6:1) represented approximately one percent of our total production for the first quarter of 2020. We received subsequent notice that the curtailment on all Eagle Ford Shale production has ceased and production resumed, effective June 1, 2020. We also received notifications of well shut-ins and curtailment in the second quarter of 2020 from

Table of Contents

additional operators, and the production attributable to such properties on a Boe/d basis (6:1) accounted for less than one percent of our total production for the second quarter of 2020. We expect we will receive additional notices regarding well shut-ins and curtailments of production from our operators as depressed prices for oil and natural gas resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak, reductions in global demand and storage capacity issues continue.

Due to the recent significant decline in oil and natural gas prices, as well as longer-term commodity price outlooks, related to reduced demand for oil and natural gas as a result of COVID-19, the announcement of price reductions and production increases in March 2020 by members of OPEC and other foreign, oil-exporting countries, and other supply factors, we recorded an impairment on our oil and natural gas properties of $65.5 million and $136.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Due to the expected significant decline in the average of the trailing twelve month first-of-month pricing used in the full-cost ceiling test, we expect to record an impairment to our oil and natural gas properties in the third quarter of 2020 as a result of the full-cost ceiling limitation. If the expected significant decline in the price of oil, natural gas and NGLs continues through future periods or if prices decrease further in future periods, we may be required to record additional impairments as a result of the full-cost ceiling limitation.

In addition, it is possible that the borrowing base of our secured revolving credit facility will be reduced in the future as a result of a decrease in the value of the assets underlying the borrowing base in connection with a sustained decrease in oil and natural gas prices.

During the Board of Director’s determination of “available cash” for the second quarter of 2020, the Board of Directors approved the allocation of 25% of our cash available for distribution for the second quarter of 2020 for the repayment of $2.5 million in outstanding borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility. With respect to future quarters, the Board of Directors may continue to allocate cash generated by our business to the repayment of outstanding borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility or in other manners in which the Board of Directors determines to be appropriate at the time, and the Board of Directors may further change its policy with respect to cash distributions in the future.

To the extent that access to the capital and other financial markets is adversely affected by the effects of COVID-19 and energy prices generally, we may need to consider alternative sources of funding for our future acquisitions, which may increase our cost of, as well as adversely impact our access to, capital or otherwise impact our ability to complete acquisitions. We cannot predict the full impact that COVID-19 or the significant disruption and volatility currently being experienced in the oil and natural gas markets will have on our business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations at this time, due to numerous uncertainties. The ultimate impacts will depend on future developments beyond our control, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, among others, the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the consequences of governmental and other measures designed to prevent the spread of the virus, the development of effective treatments, the duration of the outbreak, future actions taken by members of OPEC and other foreign oil-exporting countries, actions taken by governmental authorities, third-party operators and other third parties and the timing and extent to which normal economic and operating conditions resume.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On April 17, 2020, in connection with the closing of the Springbok Acquisition, (i) we issued 2,224,358 common units and 2,497,134 Class B units and (ii) the Operating Company issued 2,497,134 OpCo common units to the sellers in the Springbok Acquisition, as described in a Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 20, 2020.

The issuance of each of the foregoing securities was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
