Exhibit 99.2
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On August 21, 2023, Permian Resources Corporation (“Permian Resources” or the “Company”) and Earthstone Energy, Inc. (“Earthstone”) announced that they have entered into a merger agreement pursuant to which Permian Resources will acquire Earthstone (the “Merger”). The Merger is expected to close prior to December 31, 2023, subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals and shareholder approvals.
If the Merger is completed, (i) each share of Earthstone Class A common stock will be converted into the right to receive 1.446 (the “Exchange Ratio”) shares of Permian Resources Class A common stock, (ii) each share of Earthstone Class B common stock will be converted into the right to receive 1.446 shares of Permian Resources Class C common stock, (iii) each common unit of Earthstone Energy Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of Earthstone (“Earthstone OpCo”) representing limited liability company membership interests in Earthstone OpCo (the “Earthstone OpCo Units”) will be converted into the right to receive a number of common units representing limited liability company interests in Permian Resources Operating, LLC, a subsidiary of Permian Resources (“Permian Resources OpCo” and such units the “Permian Resources OpCo Units”), equal to the Exchange Ratio, and (iv) all existing shares of Permian Resources common stock will remain outstanding.
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial statements of the Company (which we refer to as the “pro forma combined financial statements”) have been prepared from the respective historical consolidated financial statements of Permian Resources and Earthstone and have been adjusted to reflect (i) the completion of the Merger, (ii) Earthstone’s completion of the Novo Transactions on August 15, 2023 (defined in Note 5 below and collectively referred to in these pro forma combined financial statements as, “Earthstone’s Novo Transactions”) and (iii) Permian Resources’ completion of its acquisition of Colgate Energy Partners III, LLC (“Colgate”) on August 31, 2022 (the “Colgate Merger” and collectively referred to in these pro forma combined financial statements as, the “Transactions”). The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, gives effect to the Merger and Earthstone’s Novo Transactions as if they had been completed on June 30, 2023. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022, and the six months ended June 30, 2023, give effect to the Transactions as if they had been completed on January 1, 2022.
The Merger will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, with Permian Resources as the accounting acquirer. The pro forma combined financial statements have been prepared to reflect transaction accounting adjustments to Permian Resources’ historical financial information that management believes are factually supportable and that are expected to have a continuing impact on results of operations, with the exception of certain nonrecurring items incurred in connection with the Merger.
The pro forma merger consideration and purchase price allocation are preliminary and are based upon estimates of the fair market values of the assets and liabilities of Earthstone as of June 30, 2023, utilizing currently available information. Assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments, preliminary merger consideration and preliminary purchase price allocations are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with the pro forma combined financial statements.
As of the date of this filing, the Company has not completed the necessary valuations of the Merger in order to arrive at the required final estimates of the fair value and the related allocations of purchase price, nor has it identified all adjustments necessary to conform Earthstone’s accounting policies to those of the Company. A final determination of the fair value of Earthstone’s assets and liabilities will be based on those that exist as of the closing date, and therefore, cannot be made prior to the completion of the Merger. In addition, the value of the shares to be distributed upon closing of the Merger will be determined based on the market price of the Permian Resources Class A common stock on the closing date. The pro forma adjustments are preliminary and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. The final purchase price allocation and merger consideration will be performed subsequent to closing and may be materially different than that reflected herein.
The pro forma combined financial statements and related notes are presented to reflect the Transactions for illustrative purposes only. If the Transactions had occurred in the past, the operating results might have been materially different from those presented in the pro forma combined financial statements. The pro forma combined statements of operations should not be relied upon as an indication of operating results that would have been achieved if the Transactions contemplated herein had taken place on the specified date. In addition, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the pro forma combined statements of operations and should not be relied on as an indication of the future results of the combined company following the Transactions. The pro forma combined financial statements do not reflect projected synergies including the benefits of expected cost savings (or associated costs to achieve such savings), opportunities to earn additional revenue or other factors that may result after the Merger and, accordingly, do not attempt to predict or suggest future results.
