Section 2 – Financial Information
Item 2.01 | Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets |
On March 31, 2015, Energen completed the sale of the majority of its natural gas assets in the San Juan Basin in New Mexico and Colorado (effective as of January 1, 2015) to Southland Royalty Company, LLC for an aggregate purchase price of $395 million. The sales proceeds were reduced by purchase price adjustments of approximately $11 million related to the operations of the San Juan Basin properties subsequent to December 31, 2014 and one-time adjustments related primarily to liabilities assumed by the buyer, which resulted in pre-tax proceeds to Energen of approximately $384 million before consideration of transaction costs of approximately $2.8 million. The purchase price is subject to further purchase price adjustments following closing. Energen used proceeds from the sale to reduce long-term indebtedness.
