Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On February 15, 2022, Earthstone Energy, Inc. (“Earthstone” or the “Company”), Earthstone Energy Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company (“EEH”), Chisholm Energy Operating, LLC (“OpCo”) and Chisholm Energy Agent, Inc. (“Agent” and collectively with OpCo, “Chisholm”), collectively as seller, consummated the transactions contemplated in the Purchase and Sale Agreement dated December 15, 2021 by and among Earthstone, EEH and Chisholm (the “Transaction”). At the closing of the Transaction, among other things, EEH acquired interests in oil and gas leases and related property of Chisholm located in Lea County and Eddy County, New Mexico, for a purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) consisting of approximately $384.7 million in cash, net of preliminary and customary purchase price adjustments and remains subject to final post-closing settlement between EEH and Chisholm, and 19,417,476 shares (the “Shares” and such issuance, the “Stock Issuance”) of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Earthstone. At the closing of the Chisholm Acquisition, 4,441,748 of the Shares were deposited in a stock escrow account for indemnity obligations and 14,975,728 of the Shares were issued to Chisholm.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties for transactions of this nature. The Purchase Agreement also contains customary pre-closing covenants of the parties, including the obligation of Chisholm to conduct its business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and to refrain from taking certain specified actions, subject to certain exceptions.

The Transaction will be accounted for as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations (referred to as “ASC 805”) using the acquisition method of accounting, with Earthstone identified as the acquirer. The preliminary allocation of the total purchase price in the Transaction is based upon management’s estimates of and assumptions related to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The pro forma financial statements have been prepared to reflect the transaction accounting adjustments to Earthstone’s historical condensed consolidated financial information in order to account for the Transaction and will include the assumption of liabilities for acquisition-related expenses and the recognition of the estimated tax impact of the pro forma adjustments.

As previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 13, 2021 with the SEC, on January 7, 2021, Earthstone completed the acquisition (the “IRM Acquisition”) of all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests in Independence and certain wholly owned subsidiaries as contemplated in a purchase and sale agreement dated December 17, 2020. On February 24, 2021, Earthstone filed a Current Report on Form 8-K/A for the purpose of providing unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements giving effect to the IRM Acquisition, as required by Item 9.01(b) of Form 8-K. The IRM Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, with Earthstone identified as the acquirer.

As previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 23, 2021 with the SEC, on July 20, 2021, Earthstone completed the acquisition of the assets of Tracker Resource Development III, LLC and TRD III Royalty Holdings (TX), LP (the “Tracker Acquisition”) and the acquisition of the assets of SEG-TRD LLC (“SEG-I”) and SEG-TRD II LLC (the “Sequel Acquisition”) providing unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements giving effect to the Tracker Acquisition and the Sequel Acquisition, as required by Item 9.01(b) of Form 8-K, both of which were accounted for as asset acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805. The fair value of the consideration paid by us and allocation of that amount to the underlying assets acquired, on a relative fair value basis, were recorded on our books as of the date of the closing of the Tracker Acquisition and the Sequel Acquisition. Additionally, costs directly related to the Tracker Acquisition and the Sequel Acquisition were capitalized as a component of the purchase price.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 gives effect to the Transaction as if it had been completed on September 30, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the nine months ended September 30, 2021 give effect to the IRM Acquisition, the Tracker Acquisition, the Sequel Acquisition and the Transaction (collectively, the “Acquisitions”) as if they had been completed on January 1, 2020. Assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with the pro forma condensed combined financial statements. As of the date of issuance of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, Earthstone has not completed the detailed valuation study necessary to arrive at the required final estimates of the fair value of the assets to be acquired and liabilities assumed in the Transaction.

EARTHSTONE ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended by SEC Final Rule Release No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses, and based on the historical consolidated and combined financial information of Earthstone, Independence, Tracker, Sequel and Chisholm Holdings. The Transaction has been accounted for herein as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805 using the acquisition method of accounting, with Earthstone identified as the acquirer. The preliminary allocation of the total purchase price in the Transaction is based upon management’s estimates of and assumptions related to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Certain transaction accounting adjustments have been made in order to show the effects of the Transaction on the combined historical financial information of Earthstone, Independence, Tracker, Sequel and Chisholm Holdings. The transaction accounting adjustments are preliminary and based on estimates of the purchase consideration and estimates of fair value and useful lives of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The transaction accounting adjustments are described in the accompanying notes and are based on available information and certain assumptions that Earthstone believes are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from those reflected in these statements. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements do not purport to represent what Earthstone’s financial position or results of operations would have been if the Transaction had occurred on the dates indicated above, nor are they indicative of Earthstone’s future financial position or results of operations. Certain information normally included in financial statements and the accompanying notes has been condensed or omitted. These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and related notes of Earthstone, Independence, Tracker, Sequel and Chisholm Holdings for the periods presented.

The pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 gives effect to the Transaction as if it had been completed on September 30, 2021. The pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the nine months ended September 30, 2021 give effect to the Acquisitions as if they had been completed on January 1, 2020.

Note 2. Accounting Policies and Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 have been compiled in a manner consistent with the accounting policies adopted by Earthstone. Certain reclassifications and adjustments have been made to the historical financial information of Independence, Tracker, Sequel and Chisholm Holdings presented herein to conform to Earthstone’s historical presentation.

Note 3. Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The preliminary allocation of the total purchase price in the Transaction is based upon management’s estimates of and assumptions related to the fair value of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed as of September 30, 2021 using currently available information. Because the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final purchase price allocation and the resulting effect on financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts included herein.

The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to change due to several factors, including but not limited to changes in the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the closing date of the Transaction, which could result from changes in future oil and natural gas commodity prices, reserve estimates, interest rates, as well as other factors.


10


The consideration transferred, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Earthstone are expected to be recorded as follows (in thousands, except share amounts and stock price):
Chisholm
Consideration:
Shares of Earthstone Class A Common Stock issued19,417,476 
Earthstone Class A Common Stock price as of February 15, 2022$12.85 
Class A Common Stock consideration249,515 
Cash consideration384,664 
Total consideration transferred$634,179 
Fair value of assets acquired:
Oil and gas properties$642,757 
Amount attributable to assets acquired$642,757 
Fair value of liabilities assumed:
Accrued liabilities1,854 
Noncurrent liabilities - ARO6,724 
Amount attributable to liabilities assumed$8,578 

Total consideration is based on the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the consideration expected to be paid by Earthstone at closing consists of 19,417,476 shares of Class A Common Stock with $314.7 million in cash due at closing and the remaining $70.0 million due over the following twelve months.

The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs. The fair value of oil and gas properties and asset retirement obligations were measured using the discounted cash flow technique of valuation.

Significant inputs to the valuation of oil and gas properties include estimates of: (i) reserves, (ii) future operating and development costs, (iii) future commodity prices, (iv) future plugging and abandonment costs, (v) estimated future cash flows, and (vi) a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates and are the most sensitive and subject to change.

Note 4. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet and Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations

The following adjustments were made in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020:

(a)        Adjustment to remove items not acquired as part of the Transaction.
(b)        Adjustment to the historical book values of Chisholm’s oil and gas properties as of September 30, 2021 to reflect those properties at their estimated fair values and eliminate Chisholm’s historical accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization, in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations.
