Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

TXO Partners, L.P. (TXO Partners or the Partnership) is an independent oil and gas company that was formed as a Delaware limited partnership in January 2012 (with an effective inception of operations at January 18, 2012). The operations of TXO Partners are governed by the provisions of the partnership agreement, as amended, executed by the general partner, TXO Partners GP, LLC (the General Partner) and the limited partners. The General Partner is the manager and operator of TXO Partners. The General Partner is managed by the board of directors and executive officers of our General Partner. The members of the board of directors of our General Partner are appointed by MorningStar Oil & Gas, LLC (“MSOG”), as the sole member of our General Partner. TXO Partners will remain in existence unless and until dissolved in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement.

TXO Partners’ assets include its investment in an unincorporated joint venture, Cross Timbers Energy, LLC (“Cross Timbers Energy”). TXO Partners owns 50% of Cross Timbers Energy, and TXO Partners is the manager of Cross Timbers Energy. Cross Timbers Energy is governed by a Member Management Committee (MMC) and is comprised of six representatives, three from each group, with each group having one voting member. All matters that come before the MMC require the unanimous consent of the voting members. On the last day of each calendar quarter, Cross Timbers Energy distributes all excess cash to the members based on their ownership percentage of 50% each, except for earnings from the note receivable which is owned 5% by TXO Partners. Cross Timbers Energy’s properties are located primarily in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico and Colorado and the Permian Basin of West Texas and New Mexico.

TXO Partners also has a wholly-owned subsidiary, MorningStar Operating LLC which owns oil and gas assets primarily in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico and Colorado and the Permian Basin of West Texas and New Mexico.

2.Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and on the same basis as our audited financial statements as of December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 and the consolidated statements of operations, members’ equity and cash flows for the periods presented herein are not audited but reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and are necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods shown. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Because the consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for a complete set of financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements referred to above. The results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be indicative of results for the full year.

Significant Accounting Policies

For a complete description of TXO Partners’ significant accounting policies, see our annual audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

3.Related Party Transactions

We earned management fees from Cross Timbers Energy of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. We earned management fees from Cross Timbers Energy of $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

4.Acquisitions

In June 2024, we entered into a purchase agreement to purchase certain oil and gas assets from Eagle Mountain Energy Partners, which are located in the Elm Coulee field in Montana and the Russian Creek field in North Dakota which are part of the Greater Williston Basin, for cash consideration of $225.0 million and 2.5 million common units of TXO, subject to customary purchase price adjustments (the “EMEP Acquisition”). In connection with entering into the purchase agreement, we paid a deposit of $27.6 million. The EMEP Acquisition is expected to close during the third quarter of 2024

Table of Contents

and is expected to be funded by a combination of cash on hand from the public offering (Note 12) and borrowings under our Credit Facility (Note 5).

Additionally, in June 2024, we entered into a purchase agreement to purchase certain oil and gas assets from Kaiser-Francis Oil Company in the Russian Creek field in North Dakota for cash consideration of $18.2 million (the “KFOC Acquisition”). In connection with entering into the purchase agreement, we paid a deposit of $1.8 million. The KFOC Acquisition closed August 1, 2024. Our preliminary purchase price allocation included $19.8 million to proved properties and $1.6 million to asset retirement obligation. The KFOC Acquisition was funded by cash on hand from the public offering (Note 12).

November 2021 Credit Facility

On November 1, 2021, we entered into a four-year, $165 million senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with certain commercial banks, as the lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent. We use the Credit Facility for general corporate purposes, and it has a maturity date of November 1, 2025. On May 17, 2024, the lenders under the Credit Facility agreed to reaffirm our borrowing base of $165 million. In connection with the Credit Facility, we incurred financing fees and expenses of approximately $3.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and $3.0 million as of December 31, 2023 before accumulated amortization of $1.9 million as of June 30, 2024 and $1.5 million as of December 31, 2023. These costs are being amortized over the life of the credit facility. Such amortized expenses are recorded as interest expense on the statements of operations.

Redeterminations of the borrowing base under the Credit Facility, are based primarily on reserve reports that reflect commodity prices at such time, and occur semi-annually, in March and September, as well as upon request by the lenders at their sole discretion, no more than once per six-month period. We also have the right to request up to two additional borrowing base redeterminations each year at our discretion. Significant declines in commodity prices may result in a decrease in the borrowing base. These borrowing base declines can be offset by any commodity price hedges we enter. Our obligations under the credit facility are secured by substantially all assets of the Partnership, including, without limitation, (i) our interest in the joint venture, (ii) all our deposit accounts, securities accounts, and commodities accounts, (iii) any receivables owed to us by Cross Timbers Energy and (iv) any oil and gas properties owned directly by TXO Partners or its wholly-owned subsidiaries. We are required to maintain (i) a current ratio greater than 1.0 to 1.0 and current assets shall include availability under the Credit Facility but shall exclude the fair value of derivative instruments and current liabilities shall exclude the fair value of derivative instruments and any advances under the Credit Facility and (ii) a ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDAX of not greater than 3.0 to 1.0. For purposes of the total net debt-to-EBITDAX ratio (“Leverage Ratio”), total net debt includes total debt for borrowed money (including capital leases and purchase money debt), minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand at such time (not exceeding $15.0 million in the aggregate), minus the unpaid balance of the FAM Loan. EBITDAX means sum of (i) net income plus interest expense; income taxes paid; depreciation, depletion and amortization; exploration expenses, including workover expenses; non-cash charges including unrealized losses on derivative instruments; and, any extraordinary or non-recurring charges, minus (ii) any extraordinary or non-recurring income and any non-cash income including unrealized gains on derivative instruments. Effective with the Second Amendment, our hedge requirements are based on availability under the Credit Facility and the Leverage Ratio. If the Leverage Ratio is greater than 0.75 to 1.00, we are required to hedge at least 50% of reasonably anticipated projected production of proved developed producing reserves for the 24 months following the end of the most recent quarter. If the Leverage Ratio is less than 0.75 to 1.00 and availability under the Credit Facility is greater than 20% of the then current borrowing base, the minimum required hedge volume would be 35% for the 12 months following the end of the most recent quarter. If the Leverage Ratio is less than 0.50 to 1.00 and availability under the Credit Facility is greater than 66.7% of the then current borrowing base, there would be no minimum required hedge volume. Our Credit Facility prohibits us from hedging more than 90% of our reasonably projected production for any fiscal year. Under the terms of the Credit Facility as amended, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of June 30, 2024 and

Table of Contents

December 31, 2023. Additionally, we believe we have adequate liquidity to continue as a going concern for at least the next twelve months from the date of this report.

At our election, interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility is determined by reference to either the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin between 3.00% and 4.00% per annum (depending on the then-current level of borrowings under the Credit Facility) or the alternate base rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin between 2.00% and 3.00% per annum (depending on the then-current level of borrowings under the Credit Facility). Interest is generally payable quarterly for loans bearing interest based on the ABR and at the end of the applicable interest period (either one, three or six months) for loans bearing interest at SOFR. We are required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the Credit Facility, which accrues at a rate per annum of 0.5% on the average daily unused amount of the lesser of: (i) the maximum commitment amount of the lenders and (ii) the then-effective borrowing base.

September 2016 Loan

On September 30, 2016, TXO Partners entered into an unsecured loan agreement with Cross Timbers Energy (the “FAM Loan”). The proceeds for the loan were taken from the cash held by the offshore subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation and the loan was assigned to the offshore subsidiary (Note 5). The loan matures on January 31, 2026, but is automatically extended should the maturity date of the Credit Facility be extended. In all instances, this loan will mature ninety-one days after the maturity of the Credit Facility. Interest on the loan is the lesser of (a) London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus three and one-quarter of one percent (3.25%) per annum, adjusted monthly or (b) the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Though the note is unsecured, we are required to stay in compliance with terms of the Credit Facility.

6.Note Receivable from Related Party

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we, through our 5% ownership interest in investment assets at Cross Timbers Energy, had a note receivable totaling $7.1 million outstanding with a highly-rated, offshore subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation. Under the terms of the agreement, there is no stated maturity date and Cross Timbers Energy may demand repayment of all or any portion of the outstanding balance on two business days’ notice. Interest is earned based on the one-month SOFR rate and is paid monthly. Interest income totaled $0.2 million in the first six months of 2024 and $0.2 million in the first six months of 2023.

The note receivable is treated as a non-current asset, since Cross Timbers Energy does not have any intention of demanding repayment of all or any portion of the outstanding balance at this time. Repayment would require the approval of the Cross Timbers Energy MMC.

7.Asset Retirement Obligation

Our asset retirement obligation primarily represents the estimated present value of the amount we will incur to plug, abandon and remediate our proved producing properties at the end of their productive lives, in accordance with applicable state and federal laws. We determine our asset retirement obligation by calculating the present value of estimated cash flows related to the liability. The following is a summary of changes in TXO Partners’ asset retirement obligation activity for the six months ended June 30, 2024:


	(in thousands)
Asset retirement obligation, January 1	$	153,972
Liability incurred upon acquiring and drilling wells	—
Liability settled upon plugging and abandoning wells	(493)
Accretion of discount expense	5,565
Asset retirement obligation, June 30	159,044
Less current portion	(1,750)
Asset retirement obligation, long term	$	157,294

Table of Contents

8.Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Partnership is subject to various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership.

To date, our expenditures to comply with environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations have not been significant and are not expected to be significant in the future. However, new regulations, enforcement policies, claims for damages or other events could result in significant future costs.

9.Fair Value

We periodically use commodity-based and financial derivative contracts to manage exposures to commodity price. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. We periodically enter into futures contracts, costless collars, energy swaps, swaptions and basis swaps to hedge our exposure to price fluctuations on crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas sales (Note 10).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Because of their short-term maturity, the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates their carrying values at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The following are estimated fair values and carrying values of our other financial instruments at each of these dates:


	Asset (Liability)
	June 30, 2024				December 31, 2023
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Note receivable from related party	$	7,131	$	7,131	$	7,131	$	7,131
Long-term debt	$	(7,100)	$	(7,100)	$	(28,100)	$	(28,100)
Derivative asset	$	—	$	—	$	6,052	$	6,052
Derivative liability	$	(991)	$	(991)	$	(4,045)	$	(4,045)

The fair value of our note receivable from related party approximates the carrying amount because the interest rate is based on current market interest rates and can be called upon two business days’ notice (Note 6). The fair value of our long-term debt approximates the carrying amount because the interest rate is reset periodically at then current market rates (Note 5).

The fair value of our note receivable from related party (Note 6), derivative asset/(liability) (Note 10) and our long-term debt (Note 5) is measured using Level 2 inputs, and are determined by either market prices on an active market for similar assets or other market-corroborated prices. Counterparty credit risk is considered when determining the fair value of our note receivable and net derivative asset (liability). Since our counterparty is highly rated, the fair value of our note receivable from related party does not require an adjustment to account for the risk of nonperformance by the counterparty, however, an adjustment for counterparty credit risk has been applied to the net derivative asset (liability).

The following table summarizes our fair value measurements and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable and are based upon Level 3 inputs. These assets and liabilities can include assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties, asset retirement obligations and other long-lived assets that are written down to fair value when they are impaired. Such fair value estimates require assumptions and judgments regarding the existence of liabilities, the amount and timing of cash outflows required to settle the liability, what constitutes adequate restoration, inflation factors, credit adjusted discount rates, and consideration of changes in legal, regulatory, environmental and political environments.

We periodically review our long-lived assets to be held and used, including proved oil and natural gas properties, whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable. We review our oil and natural gas properties by asset group. The estimated future net cash flows are based upon the underlying reserves and anticipated future pricing. An impairment loss is recognized if the sum of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets. If the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows are less than the carrying amount of a particular asset, the Partnership recognizes an impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value of such assets. The fair value of the proved properties is measured based on the income approach, which incorporates a number of assumptions involving expectations of future product prices, which the Partnership bases on the forward-price curves, estimates of oil and gas reserves, estimates of future expected operating and capital costs and a risk adjusted discount rate of 10%. These inputs are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Commodity Price Hedging Instruments

We periodically enter into futures contracts, energy swaps, swaptions, costless collars and basis swaps to hedge our exposure to price fluctuations on crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids sales. When actual commodity prices exceed the fixed price provided by these contracts we pay this excess to the counterparty, and when the commodity prices are below the contractually provided fixed price, we receive this difference from the counterparty. See Note 10.

The fair value of our derivatives contracts consists of the following:


	Asset Derivatives				Liability Derivatives
(in thousands)	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023		June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Our receivables are from a diverse group of companies including major energy companies, pipeline companies, marketing companies, local distribution companies and end-users in various industries. Letters of credit or other appropriate security are obtained as considered necessary to limit risk of loss from the other companies. Including the bank that issued the letter of credit, we currently have greater concentrations of credit with several investment-grade (BBB- or better) rated companies.

10.Commodity Sales Commitments

Our policy is to consider hedging a portion of our production at commodity prices the general partner deems attractive. While there is a risk we may not be able to realize the benefit of rising prices, the general partner may enter into hedging agreements because of the benefits of predictable, stable cash flows.

We periodically enter futures contracts, energy swaps, swaptions and basis swaps to hedge our exposure to price fluctuations on crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas sales. When actual commodity prices exceed the fixed price provided by these contracts we pay this excess to the counterparty, and when the commodity prices are below the contractually provided fixed price, we receive this difference from the counterparty. We also enter costless price collars, which set a ceiling and floor price to hedge our exposure to price fluctuations on natural gas sales. When actual commodity prices exceed the ceiling price provided by these contracts we pay this excess to the counterparty, and when the commodity prices are below the floor price, we receive this difference from the counterparty. If the actual commodity price falls in between the ceiling and floor price, there is no cash settlement.

Crude Oil

Our crude oil futures contracts and sell basis swap agreements that effectively fixed prices on our oil production expired in June 2024.

Net settlements on oil futures and sell basis swap contracts decreased oil revenues by $3.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023. Net settlements on oil futures and sell basis swap contracts decreased oil revenues by $5.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023. An unrealized gain increased oil revenues by $3.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $3.7 million in three months ended June 30, 2023. An unrealized gain increased oil revenues by $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $9.9 million in six months ended June 30, 2023.

Natural Gas Liquids

Our natural gas liquids futures contracts and swap agreements for ethane that effectively fixed prices on our natural gas liquids production expired in June 2024.

Net settlements on NGL futures contracts increased NGL revenues by $0.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023. Net settlements on NGL futures contracts increased NGL revenues by $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023. An unrealized loss decreased NGL revenues by $0.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023. An unrealized loss decreased NGL revenues by $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and an unrealized gain increased NGL revenues by $0.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Natural Gas

Our natural gas futures contracts, swap agreements and collars that effectively fixed prices on our natural gas production expired in June 2024.

The price we receive for our gas production is generally less than the NYMEX price because of adjustments for delivery location (“basis”), relative quality and other factors. We have entered sell basis swap agreements that effectively fix the basis adjustment for the San Juan Basin delivery location for the production and periods shown below.


Production Period	MMBtu per Day	Weighted Average Sell Basis Price per MMBtu(a)

All restricted units, totaling 538 thousand units, were excluded from the calculation of earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2023, because the units are anti-dilutive.

12.Partners’ Capital

On August 6, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner declared a cash distribution of $0.57 per common unit for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The distribution will be paid on August 27, 2024, to unitholders of record on August 20, 2024.

On May 7, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner declared a cash distribution of $0.65 per common unit for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The distribution was paid on May 29, 2024, to unitholders of record on May 20, 2024.

On March 05, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner declared a cash distribution of $0.58 per common unit for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The distribution was paid on March 28, 2024 to unitholders of record on March 15, 2024.

On June 28, 2024, we completed an underwritten public offering for the sale of 6.5 million common units at a price of $20.00 per common unit resulting in estimated proceeds of $122.5 million net of estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs (“the Offering”). We intend to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the EMEP Acquisition and the KFOC Acquisition (together, the “Williston Acquisitions”) (Note 4). Pending the closing of the Williston Acquisitions, we used a portion of these proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility (Note 5).

Table of Contents

On July 2, 2024, we completed the sale of an additional 975,000 common units at a price of $20.00 per common unit pursuant to the underwriter’s exercise in full of its option to purchase additional common units in the Offering, resulting in additional proceeds of approximately $18.5 million net of estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. We will use the estimated net proceeds to pay a portion of the cash consideration for the Williston Acquisitions.

13. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Partnership recognizes sales of oil, natural gas, and NGLs when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of the product to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Partnership expects to be entitled in exchange for the product.

As discussed in Note 10, the Partnership recognizes the impact of derivative gains and losses as a component of revenue. See table below for the reconciliation of revenue from contracts with customers and derivative gains and losses.

Natural Gas and NGL Sales

Under our natural gas processing contracts, we deliver natural gas to a midstream processing entity at the wellhead or at the inlet of a facility. The midstream provider gathers and processes the product, and both the residue gas and the resulting natural gas liquids are sold at the tailgate of the plant. The Partnership’s natural gas production is primarily sold under market-sensitive contracts that are typically priced at a differential to the published natural gas index price for the producing area due to the natural gas quality and the proximity to the market. We evaluated these arrangements and determined that control of the products transfers at the tailgate of the plant, meaning that the Partnership is the principal, and the third-party purchaser is its customer. As such, we present the gas and NGL sales on a gross basis and the related gathering and processing costs as a component of taxes, transportation, and other on the statement of operations.

Oil and Condensate Sales

Oil production is sold at the wellhead under market-sensitive contracts at an index price, net of pricing differentials. The Partnership recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the wellhead at the net price received from the customer.

Production imbalances

The Partnership uses the sales method to account for production imbalances. If the Partnership’s sales volumes for a well exceed the Partnership’s proportionate share of production from the well, a liability is recognized to the extent that the Partnership’s share of estimated remaining recoverable reserves from the well is insufficient to satisfy the imbalance. No receivables are recorded for those wells on which the Partnership has taken less than its proportionate share of production.

Contract Balances

Under the Partnership’s product sales contracts, its customers are invoiced once the Partnership’s performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, the Partnership’s product sales contracts do not give rise to contract assets or contract liabilities.

Performance Obligations

The majority of the Partnership’s sales are short-term in nature with a contract term of one year or less. For those contracts, the Partnership has utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14 exempting the Partnership from disclosures of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original duration of one year or less.

For the Partnership’s product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, the Partnership has utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a), which states the Partnership is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these contracts, each unit of product generally represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied, and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligation is not required.

14. Employee Benefit Plans

In January 2024, the compensation committee approved grants of 208,875 time-vesting phantom units with distribution equivalent rights to the non-employee directors, officers and certain key employees. These phantom units will vest ratably over a three-year period for the officers and key employees and will fully vest on the one-year anniversary of the grant for the non-employee directors. The phantom units will be settled in common units and distribution equivalents will be paid to holders of outstanding phantom units, including unvested phantom units.

Additionally, in January 2024, the compensation committee approved grants of 159,475 performance-vesting phantom units to the officers and certain key employees. These performance-based phantom units will be earned based on the Company’s performance during the 2024 calendar year according to certain performance objectives and will vest in one-half increments on January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2027. Prior to determination of the achievement of the performance objectives, distribution equivalent rights will be paid according to the target number of phantom units grants; following determination of the number of earned phantom units based on achievement of the performance objectives,

Table of Contents

distribution equivalent rights will be paid according to the number of earned phantom units. The phantom units will be settled in common units and distribution equivalents will be paid to holders of outstanding phantom units, including unvested phantom units.

The following summarizes the status of nonvested phantom units as of June 30, 2024:


(in thousands, except per unit amounts)	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Number of Units
Nonvested at January 1, 2024	$	20.00	535,000
Grants	$	18.62	208,875
Vestings	$	20.00	(188,332)
Nonvested at June 30, 2024	$	19.48	555,543

We recognized compensation expense related to these grants of $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, we had total deferred compensation expense of $12.4 million. For these non-vested unit awards, we estimate that compensation expense for service periods after June 30, 2024 will be $3.2 million in 2024, $6.1 million in 2025, $2.9 million in 2026 and $0.2 million in 2027. The weighted average remaining vesting period is 1.9 years.

15.Accrued Liabilities

Accrued liabilities consist of the following at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:


	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Accrued production expenses	$	15,493	$	17,443
Accrued severance taxes	$	1,834	$	2,828
Accrued ad valorem taxes	$	1,813	$	2,177

Accrued capital expenditures	$	1,276	$	676
Other accrued liabilities	$	78	$	238
Total accrued liabilities	$	22,926	$	23,362

16.Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Interest payments totaled $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Income tax payments were $1.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

17.Subsequent Events

We have evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were available to be issued. See Notes 4 and 12.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Some of the information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking statements.” All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, words such as “may,” “assume,” “forecast,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “plan,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “budget” and similar expressions are used to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current belief, based on currently available information, as to the outcome and timing of future events at the time such statement was made. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Risk Factors” included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, incident to the exploration for and development and production of oil, natural gas and NGL. We disclose important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations as discussed under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by such forward-looking statement include:

•commodity price volatility;

•the impact of epidemics, outbreaks or other public health events, and the related effects on financial markets, worldwide economic activity and our operations;

•uncertainties about our estimated oil, natural gas and NGL reserves, including the impact of commodity price declines on the economic producibility of such reserves, and in projecting future rates of production;

•risks related to the Williston Acquisitions, including the risk that we may fail to complete the EMEP Acquisition on the terms and timing currently contemplated or at all, and/or to realize the expected benefits of the Williston Acquisitions;

•the concentration of our operations in the Permian Basin, the San Juan Basin and, following completion of the Williston Acquisitions, the Williston Basin;

•difficult and adverse conditions in the domestic and global capital and credit markets;

•lack of transportation and storage capacity as a result of oversupply, government regulations or other factors;

•lack of availability of drilling and production equipment and services;

•potential financial losses or earnings reductions resulting from our commodity price risk management program or any inability to manage our commodity risks;

Table of Contents

•failure to realize expected value creation from property acquisitions and trades;

•access to capital and the timing of development expenditures;

•environmental, weather, drilling and other operating risks;

•regulatory changes, including potential shut-ins or production curtailments mandated by the Railroad Commission of Texas;

•competition in the oil and natural gas industry;

•loss of production and leasehold rights due to mechanical failure or depletion of wells and our inability to re-establish their production;

•our ability to service our indebtedness;

•cost inflation;

•political and economic conditions and events in foreign oil and natural gas producing countries, including embargoes, the Israel-Hamas war, attacks in the Red Sea and other continued hostilities in the Middle East and other sustained military campaigns, the armed conflict in Ukraine and associated economic sanctions on Russia, conditions in South America, Central America, China and Russia, and acts of terrorism or sabotage;

•evolving cybersecurity risks such as those involving unauthorized access, denial-of-service attacks, malicious software, data privacy breaches by employees, insider or other with authorized access, cyber or phishing-attacks, ransomware, social engineering, physical breaches or other actions; and

•risks related to our ability to expand our business, including through the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel.

Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way. The accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data, the interpretation of such data and price and cost assumptions made by reservoir engineers. In addition, the results of drilling, testing and production activities may justify revisions of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions would change the schedule of any further production and development drilling. Accordingly, our reserve and PV-10 estimates may differ significantly from the quantities of oil, natural gas and NGLs that are ultimately recovered.

Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q occur, or should underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, our actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

We are an independent oil and natural gas company focused on the acquisition, development, optimization and exploitation of conventional oil, natural gas and natural gas liquid reserves in North America. Our properties are predominately located in the Permian Basin of New Mexico and Texas, the San Juan Basin of New Mexico and Colorado and, following completion of the Williston Acquisitions, the Williston Basin; .

Recent Developments

Williston Basin Acquisitions

In June 2024, we entered into a purchase agreement to purchase certain oil and gas assets from Eagle Mountain Energy Partners, which are located in the Elm Coulee field in Montana and the Russian Creek field in North Dakota, for cash consideration of $225.0 million and 2.5 million common units of TXO, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. In connection with entering into the purchase agreement, we paid a deposit of $27.6 million. The EMEP Acquisition is expected to close during the third quarter of 2024 and is expected to be funded by a combination of cash on hand from the Offering and borrowings under our Credit Facility.

Equity Offering

On June 28, 2024, we completed the Offering for the sale of 6.5 million common units at a price of $20.00 per common unit, which resulted in estimated proceeds of $122.5 million net of estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. On July 2, 2024, we completed the sale of an additional 975,000 common units at a price of $20.00 per common unit pursuant to the underwriter’s exercise in full of its option to purchase additional common units in the Offering, resulting in additional proceeds of approximately $18.5 million net of estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. We intend to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Williston Acquisitions. Pending the closing of the Williston Acquisitions, we used a portion of these proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Market Outlook

The oil and natural gas industry is cyclical and commodity prices are highly volatile. For example, during the period from January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024, NYMEX prices for crude oil and natural gas reached a high of $93.68 per Bbl and $4.17 per MMBtu, respectively, and a low of $66.74 per Bbl and $1.58 per MMBtu, respectively. Oil prices were relatively stable over the first half of 2023 before initially increasing in the second half of 2023 as a result of expected supply constraints and hostilities in the Middle East. Since these concerns did not materialize, oil prices declined in the last month of 2023 but continuing hostilities and higher global consumption have pushed prices higher in the first half of 2024. WTI crude oil prices have been volatile reaching a high of $93.68 per Bbl in September 2023 before declining to $82.77 per Bbl as of July 18, 2024. Natural gas prices reached a high of $4.17 per MMbtu in January 2023 before declining to $2.07 per MMbtu as of July 18, 2024.

We expect the crude oil and natural gas markets will continue to be volatile in the future. Our revenue, profitability and future growth are highly dependent on the prices we receive for our oil and natural gas production. Please see “Risk Factors--Risks Related to the Natural Gas, NGL and Oil Industry and Our Business--Commodity prices are volatile--A sustained decline in commodity prices may adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations and our ability to meet our capital expenditure obligations and financial commitments.”

With our anticipated cash flows from our long-lived property base, we intend to provide dynamic allocation of funds to prudently meet our goals. These goals include the highest projected economic returns on our capital budget, acquisition opportunities that fulfill our strategy, and cash distributions for the life of our legacy assets. From time to time, we may choose to amortize repayment of debt incurred in modest acquisitions to support the longer-term financial stewardship of our business. At other times, given fluctuations in industry costs and commodity prices, we may modify our capital budget or cash balances to shift funds towards cash distributions. We will use all of these tools to support our underlying strategy as a “production and distribution” enterprise.

Concerns over global economic conditions, energy costs, supply chain disruptions, increased demand, labor shortages associated with a fully employed U.S. labor force, geopolitical issues, inflation, the availability and cost of credit and the United States financial market and other factors have contributed to increased economic uncertainty and diminished

expectations for the global economy. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the U.S. economy experienced the highest rate of inflation in the past 40 years. Rising inflation has been pervasive since 2022, increasing the cost of salaries, wages, supplies, material, freight, and energy. While we expect inflation to moderate in 2024, inflation continues to run higher than the Federal Reserve target, resulting in higher costs. We continue to undertake actions and implement plans to address these pressures and protect the requisite access to commodities and services, however, these mitigation efforts may not succeed or be insufficient. Nevertheless, we expect for the foreseeable future to experience inflationary pressure on our cost structure. Principally, commodity costs for steel and chemicals required for drilling, higher transportation and fuel costs and wage increases have increased our operating costs. While prices appear to have stopped increasing as rapidly, we do not expect these cost increases to reverse in the short term. Typically, as prices for oil and natural gas increase, so do associated costs. Conversely, in a period of declining prices, associated cost declines are likely to lag and may not adjust downward in proportion to prices. We cannot predict the future inflation rate but to the extent these higher costs do not begin to reverse or start to increase again, we may experience a higher cost environment going forward. If we are unable to recover higher costs through higher commodity prices, our current revenue stream, estimates of future reserves, borrowing base calculations, impairment assessments of oil and natural gas properties, and values of properties in purchase and sale transactions would all be significantly impacted.

Assuming the EMEP Acquisition is consummated in the third quarter of 2024 and the EMEP planned capital program is successfully completed, we expect the average daily production on the Williston assets to increase to an estimated 4,955 BOE/day, consisting of approximately 78% oil, 12% NGLs and 10% gas. The EMEP capital program, totaling $30 million to $35 million, is for the completion of one new operated horizontal well, nine operated refracs and four non-operated new horizontal wells. We expect to hedge a portion of the underlying production to protect our distributions and the balance sheet. The combined reserves from the Williston Acquisitions, after giving effect to EMEP’s 2024 development program, are expected to have a three-year average annual decline rate of approximately 14%.

We expect that approximately $120.0 million of the funds to close the EMEP Acquisition will be borrowings under our Credit Facility, which is expected to increase our net-debt-to-Adjusted EBITDAX ratio to approximately one times.

As a result of the Williston Acquisitions (assuming the EMEP Acquisition closes), we expect to increase our total leasehold and mineral acreage from approximately 846,000 gross (372,000 net) to approximately 1,120,000 gross (550,000 net).

How We Evaluate Our Operations

We use a variety of financial and operational metrics to assess the performance of our operations, including:

•production volumes;

•realized prices on the sale of oil, NGLs and natural gas;

•production expenses;

•acquisition and development expenditures;

•Adjusted EBITDAX; and

•Cash Available for Distribution.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDAX

We include in this Quarterly Report the non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDAX and provide our calculation of Adjusted EBITDAX and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to net income (loss), our most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDAX as net income (loss) before (1) interest income, (2) interest expense, (3) depreciation, depletion and amortization, (4) impairment expenses, (5) accretion of discount on asset retirement obligations, (6) exploration expenses, (7) unrealized (gains) losses

Table of Contents

on commodity derivative contracts, (8) non-cash incentive compensation, (9) non-cash (gain) loss on forgiveness of debt and (10) certain other non-cash expenses.

Adjusted EBITDAX is used as a supplemental financial measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, rating agencies and others, to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and our results of operation from period to period and against our peers without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDAX because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of our operating performance. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax burden, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are reflected in Adjusted EBITDAX. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDAX should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDAX may not be identical to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Cash Available for Distribution

Cash available for distribution is not a measure of net income or net cash flow provided by or used in operating activities as determined by GAAP. Cash available for distribution is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, lenders and others (including industry analysts and rating agencies who will be using such measure), to assess our ability to internally fund our exploration and development activities, pay distributions, and to service or incur additional debt. We define cash available for distribution as Adjusted EBITDAX less net cash interest expense, exploration expense, non-recurring (gain) / loss and development costs. Development costs include all of our capital expenditures made for oil and gas properties, other than acquisitions. Cash available for distribution will not reflect changes in working capital balances. Cash available for distribution is not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or net cash provided by or used in operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of our financial performance and liquidity. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to cash available for distribution are net income and net cash provided by operating activities. Cash available for distribution should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or net cash provided by operating activities.

You should not infer from our presentation of Adjusted EBITDAX that its results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDAX or cash available for distribution in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, because Adjusted EBITDAX and cash available for distribution may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definition of Adjusted EBITDAX and cash available for distribution may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

(1)Oil and condensate prices include both realized losses and unrealized gains from derivatives. Unrealized gains were $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Realized losses were $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

(2)Natural gas liquids prices include both realized gains and unrealized losses from derivatives. Unrealized losses were $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Realized gains were $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

(3)Natural gas prices include both realized gains and unrealized losses from derivatives. Unrealized losses were $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $12.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Realized gains were $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Revenues

Revenues decreased $3.2 million, or 5%, from $60.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $57.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Revenue decreased $8.2 million due to a decrease in production of 170 MBoe primarily as a result of natural production declines and downtime and decreased $7.2 million as a result of a decrease in the average selling price, excluding the effects of derivatives, on natural gas of 47%. These decreases were partially offset by gains on our hedging activity of $7.1 million, of which $6.7 million were unrealized gains and $0.4 million were realized gains. Additionally, an increase in the average selling price, excluding the effects of derivatives, on oil of 10% resulted in an increase in revenue of $4.5 million and on NGLs of 9% resulted in an increase in revenue of $0.6 million.

Production expenses

Production expenses decreased $2.9 million, or 7%, from $39.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $36.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to decreased maintenance and energy costs.

On a per unit basis, production expenses increased from $18.47 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $18.59 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily related to a decrease in production of 170 MBoe partially offset by decreased maintenance and energy costs.

Taxes, transportation, and other

Taxes, transportation, and other decreased $1.9 million, or 13%, from $15.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $13.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in production and lower natural gas prices partially offset by increased oil and NGL prices.

On a per unit basis, taxes, transportation, and other decreased from $7.08 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $6.73 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to the lower natural gas prices.

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization decreased $1.2 million, or 10%, from $11.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $10.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to the decreased production and a lower rate due to changes in production mix.

On a per unit basis, depreciation, depletion, and amortization decreased from $5.42 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $5.27 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to changes in production mix.

General and administrative

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased $3.5 million, or 324%, from $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily attributable to higher personnel costs of $2.6 million due, in part, to amortization of unit awards and additional expenses related to being a public company.

On a per unit basis, G&A expense increased from $0.51 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $2.34 per Boe sold for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily related to increased costs and decreased production.

Other income

Other income increased $7.1 million, or 106%, from $6.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $13.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily attributable to $5.4 million in bonus payments on term assignment of leases and higher CO2 and plant income of $1.8 million. The CO2 and plant income is ancillary to the operations of the gas processing plant in the Permian Basin in New Mexico and CO2 assets in Colorado.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased $0.4 million, or 70%, from $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily attributable to a higher interest rate and increased borrowings.

Unrealized losses were $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and unrealized gains were $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Realized gains were $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

(3)Natural gas prices include both realized and unrealized gains and losses from derivatives. Unrealized losses were $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and unrealized gains were $75.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Realized gains were $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and realized losses were $76.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Revenues

Revenues decreased $94.1 million, or 43%, from $218.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $124.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a 73% decrease in the average selling price of natural gas, excluding the effects of derivatives, resulted in a decrease in revenue of $77.5 million and on NGLs of 7% resulting in a decrease in revenue of $1.0 million. Additionally, revenue decreased $11.8 million due to a decrease in production of 145 MBoe primarily as a result of natural production declines and downtime. Finally, we incurred net losses on our hedging activity of $9.0 million, of which $89.4 million were unrealized losses and $80.5 million were realized gains. These declines were partially offset by an increase in the average selling price, excluding the effects of derivatives, on oil of 6% resulting in an increase in revenue of $5.2 million.

Production expenses

Production expenses decreased $5.2 million, or 7%, from $74.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $69.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease is primarily due to decreased maintenance and energy costs.

On a per unit basis, production expenses decreased from $17.99 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $17.35 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to decreased maintenance and energy costs partially offset by the decrease in production.

Taxes, transportation, and other

Taxes, transportation, and other decreased $15.2 million, or 35%, from $44.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $28.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in production and natural gas and NGLs prices partially offset by increased oil prices.

On a per unit basis, taxes, transportation, and other decreased from $10.59 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $7.18 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to the lower natural gas and NGLs prices partially offset by higher oil prices.

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization decreased $1.6 million, or 7%, from $22.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $20.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to decreased production and a lower rate due to changes in production mix.

On a per unit basis, depreciation, depletion, and amortization decreased from $5.41 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $5.20 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to changes in production mix.

General and administrative

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased $3.9 million, or 119%, from $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily attributable to higher personnel costs of $3.3 million due in part to amortization of unit awards and additional expenses related to being a public company.

On a per unit basis, G&A expense increased from $0.80 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $1.81 per Boe sold for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily related to increased costs and decreased production.

Other income

Other income increased $9.2 million, or 71%, from $13.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $22.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily attributable to $7.0 million in bonus payments on term assignment of leases, higher CO2 and plant income of $1.6 million and a $0.7 million increase in marketing income. The CO2 and plant income is ancillary to the operations of the gas processing plant in the Permian Basin in New Mexico and CO2 assets in Colorado.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased 2%, from $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to the decreased borrowings partially offset by a higher interest rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital will be cash flows generated by operating activities and borrowings under our Credit Facility. Outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility were $0.0 million at June 30, 2024 and $21.0 million at December 31, 2023, and the remaining availability under our Credit Facility was $165.0 million at June 30, 2024 and $144.0 million at December 31, 2023. Additionally, we had positive net working capital (including cash and excluding the effects of derivative instruments) of $82.2 million at June 30, 2024 and $14.1 million at December 31, 2023.

On June 28, 2024, we completed the Offering, which resulted in estimated proceeds of $122.5 million net of estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. On July 2, 2024, we completed the sale of an additional 975,000 common units at a price of $20.00 per common unit pursuant to the underwriter’s exercise in full of its option to purchase additional common units in the Offering, resulting in additional proceeds of approximately $18.5 million net of

estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. We intend to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Williston Acquisitions. Pending the closing of the Williston Acquisitions, we used a portion of these proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2024 we have no outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility and cash on hand of $76.0 million. We expect that approximately $120.0 million of the funds to close the EMEP Acquisition will be borrowings under our Credit Facility, which is expected to increase our net-debt-to-EBITDAX ratio to approximately one times. After closing the EMEP Acquisition, we expect to carry a prudent level of debt moving forward.

Our partnership agreement requires that we distribute all of our available cash (as defined in the partnership agreement) to our unitholders. Our quarterly cash distributions may vary from quarter to quarter as a direct result of variations in the performance of our business, including those caused by fluctuations in the prices of oil and natural gas. Such variations may be significant and quarterly distributions paid to our unitholders may be zero. Our second quarter distribution of $0.57 per unit with respect to cash available for distribution for the three months ended June 30, 2024, was declared on August 6, 2024 and will be paid on August 27, 2024 to unitholders of record on August 20, 2024.

The fourth quarter distribution of $0.58 per unit with respect to cash available for distribution for the three months ended December 31, 2023, was declared on March 05, 2024 and was paid on March 28, 2024 to unitholders of record on March 15, 2024. The first quarter distribution of $0.65 per unit with respect to cash available for distribution for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was declared on May 7, 2024 and was paid May 29, 2024 to unitholders of record on May 20, 2024.

Our acquisition and development expenditures consist of acquisitions of proved, unproved and other property and development expenditures. Our capital expenditures including acquisitions were $38.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and $28.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

In order to mitigate volatility in oil and natural gas prices, we have entered into commodity derivative contracts. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk—Commodity Price Risk.”

We incurred costs of approximately $8.8 million for drilling, completion and recompletion activities and facilities costs in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and we have budgeted approximately $20.0 - $28.0 million for such costs in 2024.

The amount and timing of these capital expenditures is substantially within our control and subject to management’s discretion. We retain the flexibility to defer a portion of these planned capital expenditures depending on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to the prevailing and anticipated prices for oil, NGLs and natural gas, the availability of necessary equipment, infrastructure and capital, seasonal conditions and drilling and acquisition costs. Any postponement or elimination of our development program could result in a reduction of proved reserve volumes, production and cash flow, including distributions to unitholders.

Based on current commodity prices and our drilling success rate to date, we expect to be able to fund our distributions, meet our debt obligations and fund our 2024 capital development program and acquisitions from cash flow from operations, the Offering and borrowings under our Credit Facility.

If cash flow from operations does not meet our expectations, we may reduce our expected level of capital expenditures and/or distributions to unitholders. Alternatively, we may fund these expenditures using borrowings under our Credit Facility, issuances of debt and equity securities or from other sources, such as asset sales. We cannot assure you that necessary capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Our ability to raise funds through the incurrence of additional indebtedness could be limited by covenants in our debt arrangements. If we are unable to obtain funds when needed or on acceptable terms, we may not be able to complete acquisitions that may be favorable to us, finance the capital expenditures necessary to maintain our production or proved reserves, or make distributions to unitholders.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Net cash provided by operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $12.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 due to an increase in net cash received on our derivatives, partially offset by a decline in operating results, excluding the effects of derivatives, primarily due to lower production and lower natural gas and NGL realizations partially offset by improved oil realizations and decreased costs.

Net cash used by investing activities

Net cash used by investing activities increased $9.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 due to an increase in proved property acquisitions of $23.3 million partially offset by decreased development costs of $13.0 million and other asset additions of $0.5 million.

Revolving credit agreement

On November 1, 2021, we entered into a four-year, $165 million senior secured credit facility with certain commercial banks, as the lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent. The facility has a maturity date of November 1, 2025 and as of May 17, 2024, the last date of redetermination, our borrowing base was $165 million.

Our Credit Facility contains certain customary representations, warranties and covenants, including but not limited to, limitations on incurring debt and liens, limitations on merging or consolidating with another company, limitations on

Table of Contents

making certain restricted payments, limitations on investments, limitations on paying distributions on, redeeming, or repurchasing common units, limitations on entering into transactions with affiliates, and limitations on asset sales. The Credit Facility also contains customary events of default, including non-payment, breach of covenants, materially incorrect representations, cross-default, bankruptcy and change of control. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the lenders may declare all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable.

At our election, interest on borrowings under the credit facility is determined by reference to either the secured overnight financing rate plus an applicable margin between 3.00% and 4.00% per annum (depending on the then-current level of borrowings under the Credit Facility) or the alternate base rate plus an applicable margin between 2.00% and 3.00% per annum (depending on the then-current level of borrowings under the Credit Facility). The weighted average interest rate on Credit Facility borrowings was 8.60% in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

We are required to maintain (i) a current ratio (the ratio of current assets to current liabilities) greater than 1.0 to 1.0, which for purposes of this definition includes availability under the Credit Facility but excludes the fair value of derivative instruments, and (ii) a ratio of total net debt-to-EBITDAX of not greater than 3.0 to 1.0. For purposes of the total net debt-to-EBITDAX ratio, total net debt is total debt for borrowed money (including capital leases and purchase money debt) minus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand at such time (not exceeding $15.0 million in the aggregate), minus the unpaid balance of the FAM Loan. EBITDAX means the sum of (i) net income plus interest expense; income taxes paid; depreciation, depletion and amortization; exploration expenses, including workover expenses; non-cash charges including unrealized losses on derivative instruments; and, any extraordinary or non-recurring charges, minus (ii) any extraordinary or non-recurring income and any non-cash income including unrealized gains on derivative instruments.

We had no debt outstanding and $165 million available under our Credit Facility as of June 30, 2024.

Contractual obligations and commitments

We have not guaranteed the debt or obligations of any other party, nor do we have any other arrangements or relationships with other entities that could potentially result in consolidated debt or losses.

Derivative contracts

We have entered into derivative instruments to hedge our exposure to commodity price fluctuations. If market prices are higher than the contract prices when the cash settlement amount is calculated, we are required to pay the contract counterparties. As of June 30, 2024, the current liability related to such contracts was $1.0 million. Such payments will generally be funded by higher prices received from the sale of oil, NGLs and natural gas. For further information on derivative contracts, see Note 9 in the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Asset Retirement Obligation

At June 30, 2024, we had asset retirement obligations of $159.0 million inclusive of a current portion of $1.8 million. For further information on asset retirement obligations, see Note 7 in the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Critical Accounting Policies

There has been no change in our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 5, 2024.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk, including the effects of adverse changes in commodity prices and interest rates as described below. The primary objective of the following information is to provide quantitative and qualitative information about our potential exposure to market risks. The term “market risk” refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in commodity prices and interest rates. The disclosures are not meant to be precise indicators of expected future losses, but rather indicators of reasonably possible losses. All of our market risk sensitive instruments were entered into for purposes other than speculative trading. Also, gains and losses on these instruments are generally offset by losses and gains on the offsetting expenses.

Table of Contents

Commodity price risk

Our major market risk exposure is in the pricing that we receive for our oil, NGL and natural gas production. Pricing for oil, NGLs, and natural gas has been volatile and unpredictable for several years, and this volatility is expected to continue in the future. The prices we receive for our oil, NGL, and natural gas production depend on many factors outside of our control, such as the strength of the global economy and global supply and demand for the commodities we produce.

To reduce the impact of fluctuations in oil, NGL and natural gas prices on our revenues, we periodically enter into commodity derivative contracts with respect to certain of our oil, NGL and natural gas production through various transactions that limit the risks of fluctuations of future prices. We plan to continue our practice of entering into such transactions to reduce the impact of commodity price volatility on our cash flow from operations. Future transactions may include price swaps whereby we will receive a fixed price for our production and pay a variable market price to the contract counterparty. Additionally, we may enter into collars, whereby we receive the excess, if any, of the fixed floor over the floating rate or pay the excess, if any, of the floating rate over the fixed ceiling. These hedging activities are intended to limit our exposure to product price volatility and to maintain stable cash flows.

As of June 30, 2024, the fair market value of our oil, NGL and natural gas derivative contracts was a net liability of $1.0 million. Based upon our open commodity derivative positions at June 30, 2024, a hypothetical 10% change in the NYMEX WTI and Henry Hub prices, OPIS prices and basis prices would not have a material impact on our net oil, NGL and natural gas derivative liability.


(in thousands)	Fair Value at June 30, 2024		Hypothetical Price Increase or Decrease of 10%
Derivative asset (liability) – Crude Oil	$	—	$	—
Derivative asset (liability) – Natural Gas Liquids	$	—	$	—
Derivative asset (liability) – Natural Gas	$	(991)	$	9
Net derivative liability	$	(991)	$	9

The hypothetical change in fair value could be a gain or loss depending on whether prices increase or decrease.

Counterparty and customer credit risk

Our cash and cash equivalents are exposed to concentrations of credit risk. We manage and control this risk by investing these funds in major financial institutions. We often have balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

We sell oil, NGL and natural gas production to various types of customers. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and historical payment record. The future availability of a ready market for our production depends on numerous factors outside of our control, none of which can be predicted with certainty. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had two and two customers, respectively, that each accounted for more than 10% of total revenues. We do not believe the loss of any single purchaser would materially impact our operating results because oil, NGLs and natural gas are fungible products with well-established markets and numerous purchasers.

At June 30, 2024, we had commodity derivative contracts with counterparties. We are currently not required to provide collateral or other security to counterparties to support derivative instruments; however, to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments, it is our policy to enter into derivative contracts only with counterparties that are creditworthy financial institutions deemed by management as competent and competitive market makers. Additionally, we use master netting arrangements to minimize credit risk exposure. The creditworthiness of our counterparties is subject to periodic review.

Interest rate risk

At June 30, 2024, we had no variable rate debt outstanding. Based on this, a change in interest rates would be de minimis. However, we expect that approximately $120.0 million of the funds to close the EMEP Acquisition will be borrowings under our Credit Facility, which will increase our exposure to interest rate risk while such amounts remain

outstanding. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Revolving credit agreement.”

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2024. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported as and when required, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding its required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Table of Contents

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are party to lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict the outcome of any such lawsuits with certainty, but management believes it is remote that pending or threatened legal matters will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition. Due to the nature of our business, we are, from time to time, involved in other routine litigation or subject to disputes or claims related to our business activities, including workers’ compensation claims and employment-related disputes. In the opinion of our management, none of these other pending litigation matters, disputes or claims against us, if decided adversely, will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Other than the risks set forth below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors disclosed under Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Risks Related to the Williston Acquisitions

We may not consummate the EMEP Acquisition.

The EMEP Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, and we cannot assure you that the EMEP Acquisition will be consummated in the anticipated time frame or at all.

We have performed only a limited investigation of the properties included in the EMEP Acquisition. The completion of the EMEP Acquisition is subject to specified closing conditions and to the right of any of the parties to terminate the transactions, including in the event that adjustments to the purchase price related to title defects are required in excess of agreed upon thresholds. If one or more of the closing conditions are not satisfied with respect to the EMEP Acquisition, then the acquisition may not be completed. Some of these conditions are beyond our control, and we may elect not to take actions necessary to satisfy these conditions or to ensure that the transaction is not otherwise terminated.

If the EMEP Acquisition is delayed, terminated or consummated on terms different than those described herein, the market price of our common units may decline to the extent that the price of our common units reflects a market assumption that the EMEP Acquisition will be consummated on the terms described or at all. Further, a failed transaction may result in negative publicity or a negative impression of us in the investment community and may affect our relationships with our business partners. Please read “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations —Recent Developments –Williston Basin Acquisitions” for more information regarding the EMEP Acquisition.

We may not be able to achieve the expected benefits of the EMEP Acquisition and our assessment and estimates of the Williston Assets may prove to be incorrect.

Even if we consummate the EMEP Acquisition, we may not be able to achieve the expected benefits of the EMEP Acquisition. There can be no assurance that the EMEP Acquisition will be beneficial to us. We may not be able to integrate the Williston Assets without increases in costs or other difficulties. Any unexpected costs or delays incurred in connection with the integration of the EMEP Acquisition could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects, as well as the market price of our common units.

Our assessment and estimates of the properties to be acquired in the EMEP Acquisition to date has been limited and may prove to be incorrect. Even by the time of closing, our assessment of these properties may not reveal all existing or potential problems. In addition, any inspection that we do may not reveal all title issues or other problems. We may be required to assume the risk that the properties may not perform in accordance with our expectations. Our ability to make specified claims against the seller generally expires over time and we may be left with no recourse for liabilities and other problems associated with the Williston Acquisitions that we do not discover prior to the expiration date related to such matters arising under the Williston Acquisitions. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the EMEP 2024 development program will increase production or enable us to achieve a three-year average annual decline rate on the Williston Assets of approximately 14%.

The market price of our common units may decline as a result of the Williston Acquisitions if, among other things, the integration of the properties acquired and to be acquired in the Williston Acquisitions is unsuccessful or if the

Table of Contents

properties are not successfully developed by working interest owners or if the liabilities, expenses, title and other defects, or transaction costs related to the Williston Acquisitions is greater than expected. The market price of our common units may decline if we do not achieve the perceived benefits of the Williston Acquisitions as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by us or by securities market participants or if the effect of the Williston Acquisitions on our business, results of operations or financial condition or prospects is not consistent with our expectations or those of securities market participants.

If the EMEP Acquisition is completed, we will be required to prepare and disclose historical and pro forma financial statements with the SEC, which such financial statements have not been prepared or filed as of the date of this report.

If the EMEP Acquisition is completed, we will be required to file audited financial statements in accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-X (“Regulation S-X”) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and pro forma financial statements in connection with the Williston Acquisitions no later than 75 calendar days after the date on which the EMEP Acquisition closes. You will not have the benefit of the financial statements or pro forma information relating to the Williston Acquisitions until such financial statements are filed, and the pro forma financial statements of the Company, pro forma for the Williston Acquisitions, may differ significantly from the historical financial statements of the Company.

Any acquisitions we complete, including the Williston Acquisitions, are subject to substantial risks that could reduce our ability to make distributions to our common unitholders.

Even if we do make acquisitions that we believe will increase the amount of cash available for distribution to our common unitholders, these acquisitions, including the Williston Acquisitions, may nevertheless result in a decrease in the amount of cash available for distribution. Any acquisition, including the Williston Acquisitions, involves potential risks, including, among other things:

•the validity of our assumptions about estimated proved reserves, future production, drilling locations, prices, revenues, capital expenditures and production costs;

•the assumption of unknown liabilities, losses or costs for which we are not indemnified or for which any indemnity we receive is inadequate;

•our inability to obtain satisfactory title to the assets we acquire; and

•the occurrence of other significant changes, such as impairment of oil and natural gas properties, goodwill or other intangible assets, asset devaluation or restructuring charges.

We may incur significant indebtedness to finance the EMEP Acquisition.

As of June 30, 2024, we have no outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility. We expect that approximately $120.0 million of the funds to close the EMEP Acquisition will be borrowings under our Credit Facility, which is expected to increase our net-debt-to-Adjusted EBITDAX ratio to approximately one times.

This indebtedness will increase our borrowing costs and may have the effect, among other things, of reducing our flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions. Furthermore, our borrowings under our revolving credit facility bear interest at a variable rate, and such indebtedness will expose us to interest rate risk, as our debt service obligations could increase if interest rates increase. As a result, this indebtedness will require that an increased portion of our cash flows from operations be used for the payment of interest and principal on such indebtedness, thereby reducing our ability to use cash flows from operations to fund working capital, capital expenditures and acquisitions and our cash available for distribution to our unitholders.

The Williston Acquisitions may have liabilities that are not known to us, and the indemnities in the applicable Purchase Agreement may not offer adequate protection.

In connection with the Williston Acquisitions, we have agreed to assume certain liabilities. In addition, there may be liabilities that we failed or were unable to discover in the course of performing due diligence investigations into the Williston Acquisitions, or we may not have correctly assessed the significance of certain liabilities identified in the course of our due diligence. Any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. To the extent we consummate the Williston Acquisitions, we may learn additional information as we integrate the entities and their businesses into our operations, such as unknown or contingent liabilities or issues relating to compliance with applicable laws, which could potentially have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The operations of TXO Partners are governed by the provisions of the partnership agreement, as amended, executed by the general partner, TXO Partners GP, LLC (the General Partner) and the limited partners. The General Partner is the manager and operator of TXO Partners. The General Partner is managed by the board of directors and executive officers of our General Partner. The members of the board of directors of our General Partner are appointed by MorningStar Oil & Gas, LLC (“MSOG”), as the sole member of our General Partner.

In connection with entering into the purchase agreement, we paid a deposit of $27.6 million. The EMEP Acquisition is expected to close during the third quarter of 2024 and is expected to be funded by a combination of cash on hand from the public offering (Note 12) and borrowings under our Credit Facility (Note 5). Additionally, in June 2024, we entered into a purchase agreement to purchase certain oil and gas assets from Kaiser-Francis Oil Company in the Russian Creek field in North Dakota for cash consideration of $18.2 million (the “KFOC Acquisition”). In connection with entering into the purchase agreement, we paid a deposit of $1.8 million. The KFOC Acquisition closed August 1, 2024. Our preliminary purchase price allocation included $19.8 million to proved properties and $1.6 million to asset retirement obligation.

Note Receivable from Related Party	Note Receivable from Related Party As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we, through our 5% ownership interest in investment assets at Cross Timbers Energy, had a note receivable totaling $7.1 million outstanding with a highly-rated, offshore subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation. Under the terms of the agreement, there is no stated maturity date and Cross Timbers Energy may demand repayment of all or any portion of the outstanding balance on two business days’ notice. Interest is earned based on the one-month SOFR rate and is paid monthly. Interest income totaled $0.2 million in the first six months of 2024 and $0.2 million in the first six months of 2023. The note receivable is treated as a non-current asset, since Cross Timbers Energy does not have any intention of demanding repayment of all or any portion of the outstanding balance at this time. Repayment would require the approval of the Cross Timbers Energy MMC.

The distribution will be paid on August 27, 2024, to unitholders of record on August 20, 2024. On May 7, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner declared a cash distribution of $0.65 per common unit for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The distribution was paid on May 29, 2024, to unitholders of record on May 20, 2024. On March 05, 2024, the board of directors of our general partner declared a cash distribution of $0.58 per common unit for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The distribution was paid on March 28, 2024 to unitholders of record on March 15, 2024. On June 28, 2024, we completed an underwritten public offering for the sale of 6.5 million common units at a price of $20.00 per common unit resulting in estimated proceeds of $122.5 million net of estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs (“the Offering”). We intend to use the net proceeds from the Offering to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the EMEP Acquisition and the KFOC Acquisition (together, the “Williston Acquisitions”) (Note 4). Pending the closing of the Williston Acquisitions, we used a portion of these proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility (Note 5). On July 2, 2024, we completed the sale of an additional 975,000 common units at a price of $20.00 per common unit pursuant to the underwriter’s exercise in full of its option to purchase additional common units in the Offering, resulting in additional proceeds of approximately $18.5 million net of estimated underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs. We will use the estimated net proceeds to pay a portion of the cash consideration for the Williston Acquisitions.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and on the same basis as our audited financial statements as of December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 and the consolidated statements of operations, members’ equity and cash flows for the periods presented herein are not audited but reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and are necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods shown. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Because the consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for a complete set of financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements referred to above. The results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be indicative of results for the full year.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers	Natural Gas and NGL Sales Under our natural gas processing contracts, we deliver natural gas to a midstream processing entity at the wellhead or at the inlet of a facility. The midstream provider gathers and processes the product, and both the residue gas and the resulting natural gas liquids are sold at the tailgate of the plant. The Partnership’s natural gas production is primarily sold under market-sensitive contracts that are typically priced at a differential to the published natural gas index price for the producing area due to the natural gas quality and the proximity to the market. We evaluated these arrangements and determined that control of the products transfers at the tailgate of the plant, meaning that the Partnership is the principal, and the third-party purchaser is its customer. As such, we present the gas and NGL sales on a gross basis and the related gathering and processing costs as a component of taxes, transportation, and other on the statement of operations. Oil and Condensate Sales Oil production is sold at the wellhead under market-sensitive contracts at an index price, net of pricing differentials. The Partnership recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the wellhead at the net price received from the customer. Production imbalances The Partnership uses the sales method to account for production imbalances. If the Partnership’s sales volumes for a well exceed the Partnership’s proportionate share of production from the well, a liability is recognized to the extent that the Partnership’s share of estimated remaining recoverable reserves from the well is insufficient to satisfy the imbalance. No receivables are recorded for those wells on which the Partnership has taken less than its proportionate share of production. Contract Balances Under the Partnership’s product sales contracts, its customers are invoiced once the Partnership’s performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, the Partnership’s product sales contracts do not give rise to contract assets or contract liabilities. Performance Obligations The majority of the Partnership’s sales are short-term in nature with a contract term of one year or less. For those contracts, the Partnership has utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14 exempting the Partnership from disclosures of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original duration of one year or less. For the Partnership’s product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, the Partnership has utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a), which states the Partnership is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these contracts, each unit of product generally represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied, and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligation is not required.
