2023 Acquisitions

On July 11, 2023, the Company closed an acquisition that increased its ownership interest in twenty-six producing wells operated by the Company within the Northwest Stack play for $10.6 million, after customary post-closing adjustments, with an effective date of April 1, 2023. The Company used its cash on hand to fund the acquisition

2021 Acquisitions and Divestitures

On April 22, 2021, the Company closed an acquisition of all the overriding royalty interest assets of SandRidge Mississippian Trust I (the “Trust”). The gross purchase price was $4.9 million (net $3.6 million, given our 26.9% ownership of the Trust).

North Park Basin Sale

On February 5, 2021, the Company sold all of its oil and natural gas properties and related assets of the North Park Basin ("NPB"), in Colorado, for a purchase price of $47 million. The sale closed for net proceeds of $39.7 million in cash, which amounts to the purchase price of $47 million net of effective date to close date adjustments. Consequently, the Company allocated a portion of the full cost pool net book value, using the income approach, to the divested oil and gas properties and recognized a reduction of full cost pool assets of $22.0 million and a reduction of $4.6 million to its non-full cost pool assets. As the sale significantly altered the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves, the Company recognized a $18.9 million gain related to the assets sold.
