3.        Acquisitions

 

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company entered into several purchase and sale agreements (as described below). No acquisitions occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

 

Merge Acquisition

 

On September 22, 2016, JEH acquired oil and gas properties located in the Merge area of the STACK/SCOOP (the “Merge”) play in Central Oklahoma (the “Merge Acquisition”) from SCOOP Energy Company, LLC for cash consideration of $134.4 million, net of the final working capital settlement of $2.4 million received in the first quarter of 2017. The oil and gas properties acquired in the Merge Acquisition principally consist of approximately 18,000 undeveloped net acres in Canadian, Grady and McClain Counties, Oklahoma. This transaction has been accounted for as an asset acquisition. The Company used proceeds from our equity offerings to fund a portion of the purchase. See Note 11, “Stockholders’ and Mezzanine equity”.

 

Anadarko Acquisition

 

On August 25, 2016, JEH acquired producing and undeveloped oil and gas assets in the Western Anadarko basin (the “Anadarko Acquisition”) for final consideration of $25.9 million. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination. The Company allocated $32.3 million to “Oil and gas properties,” with $3.0 million allocated to “Unproved” properties, $17.0 million allocated to “Proved” properties, and $12.3 million allocated to “Wells and equipment and related facilities”, based on the respective fair values of the assets acquired. Additionally, the Company allocated $6.4 million to our ARO liability associated with those proved properties. As of March 31, 2017, the measurement-period remains open. The Anadarko Acquisition did not result in a significant impact to revenues or net income and as such, pro forma financial information is not included. The Company funded the Anadarko Acquisition with cash on hand.

 

The assets acquired in the Anadarko Acquisition included interests in 174 wells, 59% of which were operated by the company, and approximately 25,000 net acres in Lipscomb and Ochiltree Counties in the Texas Panhandle. As of the closing date, the acquired acreage was producing approximately 900 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
