Note 1 - Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

Callon Petroleum Company is an independent oil and natural gas company focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of high-quality assets in the leading oil plays of South and West Texas. As used herein, the “Company,” “Callon,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Callon Petroleum Company and its predecessors and subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.

The Company’s activities are primarily focused on horizontal development in the Midland and Delaware Basins, both of which are part of the larger Permian Basin in West Texas, as well as the Eagle Ford in South Texas. The Company’s primary operations in the Permian reflect a high-return, oil-weighted drilling inventory with multiple prospective horizontal development intervals and are complemented by a well-established and repeatable cash flow-generating business in the Eagle Ford.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances. These financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and therefore do not include all disclosures required for financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all normal, recurring adjustments and accruals considered necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s interim financial position, results of operations and cash flows. However, the results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the full year. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications did not have a material impact on prior period financial statements.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in its ~~Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“~~2021 Annual ~~Report”)~~Report and are supplemented by the notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The financial statements and related notes included in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2021 Annual Report.

~~Debt.~~In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 was issued to reduce the complexity associated with accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The guidance is to be applied using either a modified retrospective or a fully retrospective method. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”) followed by ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope (“ASU 2021-01”), issued in January 2021 to provide clarifying guidance regarding the scope of Topic 848. ASU 2020-04 was issued to provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. Generally, the guidance is to be applied as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 are effective for all entities through December 31, 2022. In April 2022, the FASB proposed to ~~defer~~extend the effective date ~~from~~through December 31, ~~2022 to December 31, 2024,~~2024; however, a final ruling has not been issued. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, the Company has not elected to use the optional guidance and continues to evaluate the options provided by ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01. Please refer to “Note 6 –

Borrowings” for discussion of the use of the adjusted LIBO rate in connection with borrowings under the Company’s ~~senior secured revolving credit facility.~~Credit Facility (as defined below).

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued. ~~See “Note 15 - Subsequent Events” for further discussion.~~

Note 2 - Revenue Recognition

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company recognizes oil, natural gas, and NGL production revenue at the point in time when control of the product transfers to the purchaser, which differs depending on the applicable contractual terms. Transfer of control also drives the presentation of gathering, transportation and processing in the consolidated statements of operations. See “Note 3 - Revenue Recognition” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2021 Annual Report for more information regarding the types of contracts under which oil, natural gas, and NGL production revenue is generated.

Accounts Receivable from Revenues from Contracts with Customers

Net accounts receivable include amounts billed and currently due from revenues from contracts with customers of our oil and natural gas production, which had a balance at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 of ~~$262.4~~$274.5 million and $171.8 million, respectively, and are presented in “Accounts receivable, net” in the consolidated balance sheets.

Prior Period Performance Obligations

The Company records revenue in the month production is delivered to the purchaser. However, settlement statements for sales may not be received for 30 to 90 days after the date production is delivered, and as a result, the Company is required to estimate the amount of production delivered to the purchaser and the price that will be received for the sale of the product. The Company records the differences between estimates and the actual amounts received for product sales in the month that payment is received from the purchaser. The Company has existing internal controls for its revenue estimation process and related accruals, and any identified differences between its revenue estimates and actual revenue received historically have not been significant.

Note 3 - Acquisitions and Divestitures

2021 Acquisitions and Divestitures

Primexx Acquisition

On October 1, 2021, the Company closed on the acquisition of certain producing oil and gas properties, undeveloped acreage and associated infrastructure assets in the Delaware Basin from Primexx Resource Development, LLC (“Primexx”) and BPP Acquisition, LLC (“BPP”) for an adjusted purchase price of approximately $444.8 million in cash, inclusive of the deposit paid at signing, 8.84 million shares of the Company’s common stock and approximately $25.2 million paid upon final closing for total consideration of $880.8 million (the “Primexx Acquisition”), subject to potential adjustments for applicable indemnification claims as discussed below. The Company funded the cash portion of the total consideration with borrowings under its Credit ~~Facility, as defined below.~~Facility. Of the 8.84 million shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon closing, 2.6 million shares were held in escrow pursuant to the purchase and sale agreements with Primexx and BPP (collectively, the “Primexx PSAs”). Pursuant to the Primexx PSAs, 50% of the shares held in escrow were released six months after the closing date, which was on April 1, 2022, and the remaining shares will be released twelve months after the closing date, which will be on October 1, 2022, in each case subject to holdback for the satisfaction of any applicable indemnification claims that may be made under the Primexx PSAs.

Also, pursuant to the Primexx PSAs, certain interest owners exercised their option to sell their interest in the properties included in the Primexx Acquisition to the Company for consideration structured similarly to the Primexx Acquisition, for an incremental purchase price totaling approximately ~~$33.1~~$31.8 million, net of customary purchase price adjustments, of which $10.7 million closed during the first quarter of 2022.

The Primexx Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination; therefore, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated acquisition date fair values with information available at that time. A combination of a discounted cash flow model and market data was used by a third-party specialist in determining the fair value of the oil and gas properties. Significant inputs into the calculation included future commodity prices, estimated volumes of oil and gas reserves, expectations for timing and amount of future development and operating costs, future plugging and abandonment costs and a

risk adjusted discount rate. Certain data necessary to complete the purchase price allocation is not yet available. The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation during the 12-month period following the acquisition date.

The following table sets forth the Company’s preliminary allocation of the total estimated consideration of ~~$914.0~~$912.7 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.


						Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

Assets:
Other current assets						$10,250
Evaluated oil and natural gas properties						~~686,393~~685,478

Total consideration						$~~913,993~~912,698

Approximately ~~$138.1~~$170.4 million and $308.5 million of revenues and ~~$28.8~~$36.9 million and $65.7 million of direct operating expenses attributed to the Primexx Acquisition are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2022.~~June 30, 2022, respectively.

Pro Forma Operating Results (Unaudited). The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial data for the year ended December 31, 2021 was derived from the historical financial statements of the Company giving effect to the Primexx Acquisition, as if it had occurred on January 1, 2020. The below information reflects pro forma adjustments for the issuance of the Company’s common stock and the borrowings under the Credit Facility as total consideration, as well as pro forma adjustments based on available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes provide a reasonable basis for reflecting the significant pro forma effects directly attributable to the Primexx Acquisition.

The pro forma consolidated statements of operations data has been included for comparative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Primexx Acquisition taken place on January 1, 2020 and is not intended to be a projection of future results.

Non-Core Asset Divestitures

During 2021, we completed divestitures of certain non-core assets in the Delaware Basin, Midland Basin, and Eagle Ford Shale as well as the divestiture of certain non-core water infrastructure for total net proceeds of ~~$181.8 million, subject to post-closing adjustments.~~$179.9 million. The aggregate net proceeds for each of the 2021 divestitures were recognized as a reduction of evaluated oil and gas properties with no gain or loss recognized as the divestitures did not significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and estimated proved reserves. For additional discussion, see “Note 4 - Acquisitions and Divestitures” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2021 Annual Report.

Note 5 - Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the periods presented. The calculation of diluted earnings per share includes the potential dilutive impact of non-vested restricted stock units and unexercised warrants outstanding during the periods presented, as calculated using the treasury stock method, unless their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the Company reported a net loss. As a result, the calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding excluded all potentially dilutive common shares ~~outstanding.~~outstanding for those periods.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility

The Company has a senior secured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders (the “Credit Facility”) that, as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, had a maximum credit amount of $5.0 billion, a borrowing base and elected commitment amount of $1.6 billion, with borrowings outstanding of ~~$712.0~~$779.0 million at a weighted-average interest rate of ~~2.74%~~4.16%, and letters of credit outstanding of ~~$23.0~~$16.4 million. The credit agreement governing the Credit Facility provides for interest-only payments until December 20, 2024 when the credit agreement matures and any outstanding borrowings are due. The Credit Facility is subject to specified springing maturity dates if more than $100.0 million principal amount of the 9.00% Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Second Lien Notes”) and 6.125% Senior Notes are outstanding. The Credit Facility is secured by first preferred mortgages covering the Company’s major producing properties.

The borrowing base under the credit agreement is subject to regular redeterminations in the spring and fall of each year, as well as special redeterminations described in the credit agreement, which in each case may reduce the amount of the borrowing base. On May 2, 2022, as part of the Company’s spring 2022 redetermination, the borrowing base and elected commitment amount of $1.6 billion were reaffirmed.

Borrowings outstanding under the credit agreement bear interest at the Company’s option at either (i) a base rate for a base rate loan plus a margin between 1.00% to 2.00%, where the base rate is defined as the greatest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and the adjusted LIBO rate plus 1.00%, or (ii) an adjusted LIBO rate for a Eurodollar loan plus a margin between 2.00% to 3.00%. The Company also incurs commitment fees at rates ranging between 0.375% to 0.500% on the unused portion of lender commitments, which are included in “Interest expense, net of capitalized amounts” in the consolidated statements of operations.

Issuance of 7.50% Senior Notes and Redemption of 6.125% Senior Notes and Second Lien Notes

On June 9, 2022, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement pursuant to which it agreed to issue and sell $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.50% senior unsecured notes due 2030 (the “7.50% Senior Notes”) in a private placement, which closed on June 24, 2022, for proceeds of approximately $588.0 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. The 7.50% Senior Notes mature on June 15, 2030 and interest is payable semi-annually each June 15 and December 15, commencing on December 15, 2022.

At any time prior to June 15, 2025, the Company may, from time to time, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 7.50% Senior Notes in an amount of cash not greater than the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at the redemption price of 107.50% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption, if at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the 7.50% Senior Notes remains outstanding after such redemption and the redemption occurs within 180 days of the closing date of such equity offering. Prior to June 15, 2025, the Company may, at its option, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a portion of the 7.50% Senior Notes at 100.00% of the principal amount plus an applicable make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest. On or after June 15, 2025, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the 7.50% Senior Notes at redemption prices decreasing annually from 103.75% to 100.00% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest. Upon the occurrence of certain kinds of change of control that are accompanied by a ratings decline, each holder of the 7.50%

Senior Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s 7.50% Senior Notes for cash at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Also on June 9, 2022, the Company directed the trustee of the 6.125% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “6.125% Senior Notes”) and the 9.00% Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2025 (the “Second Lien Notes”) to deliver redemption notices with respect to all $460.2 million of its outstanding 6.125% Senior Notes and all $319.7 million of its outstanding Second Lien Notes. On June 24, 2022, the Company deposited with the trustee the proceeds from the offering of the 7.50% Senior Notes, along with borrowings under the Credit Facility, to redeem all of its outstanding 6.125% Senior Notes and Second Lien Notes. The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $42.4 million in its consolidated statements of operations as a result of the redemptions, which primarily related to redemption premiums and the write-off of the remaining unamortized premium associated with the 6.125% Senior Notes, partially offset by the write-offs of the remaining unamortized discount associated with the Second Lien Notes and deferred financing costs.

Covenants

The Company’s credit agreement governing the Credit Facility and the ~~6.125% Senior Notes,~~indentures governing the 8.25% Senior Notes, the 6.375% Senior Notes, the 8.00% Senior Notes and the ~~8.00%~~7.50% Senior Notes (collectively, the “Senior Unsecured Notes”) ~~and the Second Lien Notes~~ limit the Company and certain of its subsidiaries with respect to the amount of additional indebtedness, liens, dividends and other payments to shareholders, repurchases or redemptions of the Company’s common stock, redemptions of senior notes, investments, acquisitions, mergers, asset dispositions, transactions with affiliates, hedging transactions and other matters, along with maintenance of certain financial ratios.

Under the credit agreement, the Company must maintain the following financial covenants determined as of the last day of the quarter: (1) a Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement governing the Credit Facility) of no more than 4.00 to 1.00 and (2) a Current Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement governing the Credit Facility) of not less than 1.00 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022.

The credit agreement and indentures are subject to customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the holders or lenders may elect to accelerate amounts due (except in the case of a bankruptcy event of default, in which case such amounts will automatically become due and payable).

Note 7 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Objectives and Strategies for Using Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in oil, natural gas and NGL prices received for its production. Consequently, the Company believes it is prudent to manage the variability in cash flows on a portion of its oil, natural gas and NGL production. The Company utilizes a mix of collars, swaps, and put and call options to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from changes in commodity prices. The Company does not use these instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

Counterparty Risk and Offsetting

The Company typically has numerous commodity derivative instruments outstanding with a counterparty that were executed at various dates, for various contract types, commodities and time periods. This often results in both commodity derivative asset and liability positions with that counterparty. The Company nets its commodity derivative instrument fair values executed with the same counterparty to a single asset or liability pursuant to International Swap Dealers Association Master Agreements, ~~(“ISDA Agreements”),~~ which provide for net settlement over the term of the contract and in the event of default or termination of the contract. In general, if a party to a derivative transaction incurs an event of default, as defined in the applicable agreement, the other party will have the right to demand the posting of collateral, demand a cash payment transfer or terminate the arrangement.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, the Company has outstanding commodity derivative instruments with 10 counterparties to minimize its credit exposure to any individual counterparty. All of the counterparties to the Company’s commodity derivative instruments are also lenders under the Company’s credit agreement. Therefore, each of the Company’s counterparties allow the Company to satisfy any need for margin obligations associated with commodity derivative instruments where the Company is in a net liability position with the collateral securing the credit agreement, thus eliminating the need for independent collateral posting.

Because each of the Company’s counterparties has an investment grade credit rating, the Company believes it does not have significant credit risk and accordingly does not currently require its counterparties to post collateral to support the net asset positions of its commodity derivative instruments. Although the Company does not currently anticipate nonperformance from its counterparties, it continually monitors the credit ratings of each counterparty.

While the Company monitors counterparty creditworthiness on an ongoing basis, it cannot predict sudden changes in counterparties’ creditworthiness. In addition, even if such changes are not sudden, the Company may be limited in its ability to mitigate an increase in counterparty credit risk. Should one of these counterparties not perform, the Company may not realize the benefit of some of its derivative instruments under lower commodity prices while continuing to be obligated under higher commodity price contracts subject

to any right of offset under the agreements. Counterparty credit risk is considered when determining the fair value of a derivative instrument. See “Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion.

Contingent Consideration Arrangements

The Company met certain oil pricing thresholds for 2021 associated with certain contingent consideration arrangements described in “Note 8 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in its 2021 Annual Report. Cash received or paid for settlements of contingent consideration arrangements are classified as cash flows from financing activities or cash flows from investing activities, respectively, up to the divestiture or acquisition date fair value, respectively, with any excess classified as cash flows from operating activities. As a result, the Company received $20.8 million, of which $8.5 million is presented in cash flows from financing activities with the remaining $12.3 million presented in cash flows from operating activities, and paid $25.0 million, of which $19.2 million is presented in cash flows from investing activities with the remaining $5.8 million presented in cash flows from operating activities, in the first quarter of 2022. Both of these contingent consideration arrangements expired at the end of 2021.

Financial Statement Presentation and Settlements

The Company records its derivative instruments at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets and records changes in fair value as “(Gain) loss on derivative contracts” in the consolidated statements of operations. Settlements are also recorded as “(Gain) loss on derivative contracts” in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company presents the fair value of derivative contracts on a net basis in the consolidated balance sheets as they are subject to master netting arrangements. The following presents the impact of this presentation to the Company’s recognized assets and liabilities for the periods indicated:

Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements

Accounting guidelines for measuring fair value establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly such as quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and which the Company makes its own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets and liabilities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Investments. The carrying amounts for these instruments approximate fair value due to the short-term nature or maturity of the instruments.

Debt. The carrying amount of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility approximates fair value as the borrowings bear interest at variable rates and are reflective of market rates. The following table presents the principal amounts of the Company’s Second Lien Notes and Senior Unsecured Notes with the fair values measured using quoted secondary market trading prices which are designated as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. See “Note 6 - Borrowings” for further discussion.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value:

Commodity Derivative Instruments. The fair value of commodity derivative instruments is derived using a third-party income approach valuation model that utilizes market-corroborated inputs that are observable over the term of the commodity derivative contract. The Company’s fair value calculations also incorporate an estimate of the counterparties’ default risk for commodity derivative assets and an estimate of the Company’s default risk for commodity derivative liabilities. As the inputs in the model are substantially observable over the term of the commodity derivative contract and there is a wide availability of quoted market prices for

similar commodity derivative contracts, the Company designates its commodity derivative instruments as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. See “Note 7 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” for further discussion.

The following tables present the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

There were no transfers between any of the fair value levels during any period presented.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Acquisitions. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured as of the acquisition date by a third-party valuation specialist using a combination of income and market approaches, which are not observable in the market and are therefore designated as Level 3 inputs. Significant inputs include expected discounted future cash flows from estimated reserve quantities, estimates for timing and costs to produce and develop reserves, oil and natural gas forward prices, and a risk-adjusted discount rate. See “Note 3 - Acquisitions and Divestitures” for additional discussion.

Asset Retirement Obligations. The Company measures the fair value of asset retirement obligations as of the date a well begins drilling or when production equipment and facilities are installed using a discounted cash flow model based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore are designated as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. Significant inputs to the fair value measurement of asset retirement obligations include estimates of the costs of plugging and abandoning oil and gas wells, removing production equipment and facilities, restoring the surface of the land as well as estimates of the economic lives of the oil and gas wells and future inflation rates.

Note 9 - Income Taxes

The Company provides for income taxes at the statutory rate of 21%. Reported income tax benefit (expense) differs from the amount of income tax benefit (expense) that would result from applying domestic federal statutory tax rates to pretax income (loss). These differences primarily relate to non-deductible executive compensation expenses, restricted stock unit windfalls, changes in valuation allowances, and state income taxes.

For ~~both~~ the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s effective income tax rates were 1% and 4%, respectively. For both the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s effective income tax rate was ~~approximately~~ 1%. The primary differences between the effective tax rates for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021 and the statutory rate resulted from the valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s net deferred tax assets beginning in the second quarter of 2020 and the effect of state income taxes.

Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance

Management monitors company-specific, oil and natural gas industry and worldwide economic factors and assesses the likelihood that

the Company’s net deferred tax assets will be utilized prior to their expiration. A significant item of objective negative evidence considered was the cumulative historical three-year pre-tax loss and a net deferred tax asset position at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, driven primarily by the impairments of evaluated oil and gas properties recognized beginning in the second quarter of 2020 and continuing through the fourth quarter of 2020. This limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence such as the Company’s potential for future growth. Since the second quarter of 2020, based on the evaluation of the evidence available, the Company concluded that it is more likely than

not that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. As a result, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance, reducing the net deferred tax assets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 to zero. ~~As long as~~

The Company currently believes it is reasonably possible it could achieve a three-year cumulative level of profitability within the ~~Company continues~~next 12 months, which would enhance its ability to conclude that it is more likely than not that the ~~valuation~~

~~allowance against its net~~ deferred tax assets would be realized and support a release of substantially all or a portion of the valuation allowance. However, the exact timing and amount of the release is ~~necessary, the Company does not expect to have no significant deferred income tax expense or benefit.~~

unknown at this time. The Company will continue to evaluate whether the valuation allowance is needed in future reporting periods. The valuation allowance will remain until the Company can conclude that the net deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. Future events or new evidence which may lead the Company to conclude that it is more likely than not its net deferred tax assets will be realized include, but are not limited to, cumulative historical pre-tax earnings, improvements in crude oil prices, and taxable events that could result from one or more transactions. The valuation allowance does not preclude the Company from utilizing the tax attributes if it recognizes taxable income.periods based on available information each reporting period. As long as the Company continues to conclude that the valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets is necessary, the Company will have no significant deferred income tax expense or benefit. The valuation allowance does not preclude the Company from utilizing the tax attributes if it recognizes taxable income.

Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q by words such as “anticipate,” “project,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “believe,” “predict,” “budget,” “projection,” “goal,” “plan,” “forecast,” “target” or similar expressions.

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this report that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements, including such things as:

•our oil and natural gas reserve quantities, and the discounted present value of these reserves;

•the amount and nature of our capital expenditures;

•our future drilling and development plans and our potential drilling locations;

•the timing and amount of future capital and operating costs;

•production decline rates from our wells being greater than expected;

•commodity price risk management activities and the impact on our average realized prices;

•business strategies and plans of management;

•our ability to efficiently integrate recent acquisitions; and

•prospect development and property acquisitions.

We caution you that the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are subject to all of the risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, incident to the exploration for and development, production and sale of oil and natural gas. We disclose these and other important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our 2021 Annual Report. These factors include:

•the volatility of oil, natural gas and NGL prices or a prolonged period of low oil, natural gas or NGL prices;

•general economic conditions including the availability of credit and access to existing lines of credit;

•changes in the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and various governmental actions taken to mitigate its impact or actions by, or disputes among, members of OPEC and other oil and natural gas producing countries, such as Russia, with respect to production levels or other matters related to the price of oil;

•the uncertainty of estimates of oil and natural gas reserves;

•impairments;

•the impact of competition;

•the availability and cost of seismic, drilling, completions and other equipment, waste and water disposal infrastructure, and personnel;

•operating hazards inherent in the exploration for and production of oil and natural gas;

•difficulties encountered during the exploration for and production of oil and natural gas;

•the potential impact of future drilling on production from existing wells;

•difficulties encountered in delivering oil and natural gas to commercial markets;

•the uncertainty of our ability to attract capital and obtain financing on favorable terms;

•compliance with, or the effect of changes in, the extensive governmental regulations regarding the oil and natural gas business including those related to climate change and greenhouse gases;

•the impact of government regulation, including regulation of hydraulic fracturing and water disposal wells;

•any increase in severance or similar taxes;

•the financial impact of accounting regulations and critical accounting policies;

•the comparative cost of alternative fuels;

•credit risk relating to the risk of loss as a result of non-performance by our counterparties;

•cyberattacks on the Company or on systems and infrastructure used by the oil and natural gas industry;

•weather conditions; and

•risks associated with acquisitions.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Additional risks or uncertainties that are not currently known to us, that we currently deem to be immaterial, or that could apply to any company could also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or future results. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of which such statement is made and the Company undertakes no obligation to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

In addition, we caution that reserve engineering is a process of estimating oil and natural gas accumulated underground and cannot be measured exactly. Accuracy of reserve estimates depend on a number of factors including data available at the point in time, engineering interpretation of the data, and assumptions used by the reserve engineers as it relates to price and cost estimates and recoverability. New results of drilling, testing, and production history may result in revisions of previous estimates and, if significant,

would impact future development plans. As such, reserve estimates may differ from actual results of oil and natural gas quantities ultimately recovered.

Except as required by applicable law, all forward-looking statements attributable to us 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.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following management’s discussion and analysis describes the principal factors affecting our results of operations, liquidity, capital resources and contractual cash obligations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and our 2021 Annual Report, which include additional information about our business practices, significant accounting policies, risk factors, and the transactions that underlie our financial results.

General

We are an independent oil and natural gas company focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of high-quality assets in the leading oil plays of South and West Texas. Our activities are primarily focused on horizontal development in the Midland and Delaware Basins, both of which are part of the larger Permian Basin in West Texas, as well as the Eagle Ford in South Texas.

Our operating culture is centered on responsible development of hydrocarbon resources, safety and the environment, which we believe strengthens our operational performance. Our drilling activity is predominantly focused on the horizontal development of several prospective intervals in the Permian, including multiple levels of the Wolfcamp formation and the Lower Spraberry shales, and the Eagle Ford. We have assembled a multi-year inventory of potential horizontal well locations and intend to add to this inventory through delineation drilling of emerging zones on our existing acreage and through acquisition of additional locations through working interest acquisitions, leasing programs, acreage purchases, joint ventures and asset swaps.

~~First~~Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

•Total production for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 was ~~102.7~~100.7 MBoe/d, a decrease of 9% 2% from the three months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, primarily due to normal production decline and increased downtime due to an escalation in capital-efficient workover activity partially offset by new wells placed on production during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022. Total production for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 increased ~~27%~~20% from the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, primarily due to new wells acquired in the Primexx Acquisition as well as new wells placed on production, partially offset by normal production decline as well as non-core asset divestitures which occurred primarily in the fourth quarter of 2021.

•Operated drilling and completion activity for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 along with our drilled but uncompleted and producing wells as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 are summarized in the table below.

•Operational capital expenditures, exclusive of leasehold and seismic, for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022 were ~~$157.4~~$237.8 million, of which approximately ~~90%~~80% were in the Permian with the remaining balance in the Eagle Ford. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—2022 Capital Budget and Funding Strategy” for additional details.

•AsOn June 24, 2022, we issued $600.0 million in aggregate principal amount of ~~March 31,~~our 7.50% Senior Notes in a private placement for proceeds of approximately $588.0 million, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. Also on June 24, 2022, using the proceeds from the offering of the 7.50% Senior Notes, along with borrowings ~~outstanding~~ under ~~our~~the Credit Facility, ~~was $712.0 million compared to $785.0 million as~~we redeemed all of ~~December 31, 2021.~~the outstanding 6.125% Senior Notes and all of the outstanding Second Lien Notes.

•Recorded net income for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 of ~~$39.7~~$348.0 million,, or ~~$0.64~~$5.62 per diluted share, compared to net loss for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 of ~~$80.4~~$11.7 million, or ~~$1.89~~$0.25 per diluted share. The variance between the ~~respective~~ periods was driven primarily by an increase in operating revenues in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022 driven by an approximate ~~64%~~70% increase in the total average realized sales price and an increase of ~~27%~~13% in production volumes compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2021 as well as a decrease in the loss on derivative contracts to approximately $81.6 million during the second quarter of 2022 compared to approximately $190.5 million during the second quarter of 2021. This increase was partially offset by an increase in ~~the loss on derivative contracts to approximately $358.3 million during the first quarter of 2022 compared to approximately $214.5 million during the first quarter of 2021,~~operating expenses as well as ~~an increase in operating expenses.~~the loss recognized upon the redemption of the 6.125% Senior Notes and Second Lien Notes of $42.4 million. See “—Results of Operations” below for further details.

Interest expense, net of capitalized amounts, incurred during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 decreased ~~$3.7~~$0.9 million to ~~$21.6~~$20.7 million compared to ~~$25.2~~$21.6 million for the three months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The decrease is primarily due to ~~the reduction~~an increase in capitalized interest expense associated with the Second Lien Notes as a result of our exchange of $197.0 million of our outstanding Second Lien Notes for a notional amount of approximately $223.1 million of our common stock in November 2021, as well as lower borrowings on the Credit Facility compared to the three months ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Interest expense, net of capitalized amounts, incurred during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 decreased ~~$2.9~~$6.8 million to ~~$21.6~~$42.2 million compared to ~~$24.4~~$49.1 million for the same period of 2021. The decrease is primarily due to the reduction in interest expense and the write-off of the discount associated with the Second Lien Notes exchange ~~discussed above,~~in November 2021, lower borrowings on the Credit Facility compared to the same period of 2021 and an increase in capitalized interest, partially offset by an increase in interest expense primarily related to the issuance of the 8.00% Senior Notes in July 2021. See “Note 7 - Borrowings” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2021 Annual Report for further discussion of the Second Lien Notes exchange.

See “Note 6 - Borrowings” for details of the issuance of the 7.50% Senior Notes and redemptions of the 6.125% Senior Notes and Second Lien Notes.

See “Note 7 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and “Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements” for additional information.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded income tax expense of ~~$0.5~~$3.0 million ~~compared to income tax benefit of $0.8~~and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, ~~and December 31, 2021,~~ respectively.

We recorded income tax expense of ~~$0.5~~$3.5 million compared to income tax benefit of ~~$0.9~~$1.4 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Since the second quarter of 2020, we have concluded that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized and have recorded a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. As long as we continue to conclude that the valuation allowance is necessary, we do not expect to have significant deferred income tax expense or benefit. See “Note 9 - Income Taxes” for further discussion.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

~~2022~~ Outlook. Oil prices steadily increased throughout 2021 and ~~into~~remained on an upward trajectory throughout the first ~~quarter~~half of ~~2022, reaching a 13-year high in March~~ 2022. As a result of ~~a corresponding increase in~~rapid economic growth and improved industry ~~drilling and completion activity over that period, combined with the supply chain and labor constraints,~~fundamentals, we ~~have begun to experience~~are experiencing inflationary cost pressures on many different service items including labor, materials, and equipment. We expect to continue to face inflationary pressure ~~throughout the remainder of 2022.~~into 2023.

2022 Capital Budget and Funding Strategy. Our primary uses of capital are for the exploration and development of our oil and natural gas properties. Our 2022 operational capital budget ~~has been established at $725.0~~is $790.0 million to $810.0 million, with over 85% allocated towards development in the Permian with the balance towards development in the Eagle Ford. Because we are the operator of a high percentage of our properties, we can control the ~~amount~~well design and ~~timing of~~the development pace associated with our capital expenditures. ~~We plan to execute a moderated~~Our 2022 capital expenditure program ~~through~~was developed to reflect reduced reinvestment rates and ~~balanced~~balance capital deployment for a more consistent cash flow generation and ~~will be focused~~ to ~~further enhance our~~drive capital efficiency through an enhanced multi-zone, scaled development ~~program to drive capital efficiency.~~program.

Total	$194.5	$275.4		$469.9

(1) Capital expenditures, presented on an accrual basis, includes drilling, completions, facilities, and equipment, and excludes land, seismic, and asset retirement costs.

We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents, any positive cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our ~~revolving credit facility~~Credit Facility will be sufficient to support working capital, capital expenditures and other cash requirements for at least the next 12 months and, based on our current expectations, for the foreseeable future thereafter. Our future capital requirements, both near-term and long-term, will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, commodity prices, market conditions, our available liquidity and financing, acquisitions and divestitures of oil and gas properties, the availability of drilling rigs and completion crews, the cost of completion services, success of drilling programs, land and industry partner issues, weather delays, the acquisition of leases with drilling commitments, and other factors.

Historically, our primary sources of capital have been cash flows from operations, borrowings under our Credit Facility, proceeds from the issuance of debt securities and public equity offerings, and non-core asset dispositions. We regularly consider which resources, including debt and equity financings, are available to meet our future financial obligations, planned capital expenditures and

liquidity requirements. In addition, we may consider divesting certain properties or assets that are not part of our core business or are

no longer deemed essential to our future growth or enter into joint venture agreements, provided we are able to divest such assets or enter into joint venture agreements on terms that are acceptable to us.

Depending upon our actual and anticipated sources and uses of liquidity, prevailing market conditions and other factors, we may, from time to time, seek to retire or repurchase our outstanding debt or equity securities through cash purchases in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in aggregate, may be material.

Overview of Cash Flow Activities. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents decreased ~~$5.7~~$3.8 million to ~~$4.2~~$6.1 million compared to $9.9 million at December 31, 2021.

Operating Activities. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$281.3~~$653.6 million compared to ~~$137.7~~$313.3 million for the same period in 2021. The change in net cash provided by operating activities was predominantly attributable to the following:

•An increase in revenue primarily driven by a ~~66%~~67% increase in total average realized ~~oil~~sales price, as well as a ~~27%~~20% increase in production volumes, and

•An offsetting increase in the cash paid for commodity derivative settlements.

Production, realized prices, and operating expenses are discussed in Results of Operations. See “Note 7 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and “Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements” for a reconciliation of the components of our derivative contracts and disclosures related to derivative instruments including their composition and valuation.

Investing Activities. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was ~~$221.9~~$435.8 million compared to ~~$98.5~~$217.4 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily ~~attributed~~attributable to the following:

•An increase in operational capex, and

•An increase ~~in cash paid for the settlement of contingent consideration agreements as~~due to a cash payment of $19.2 million ~~was paid~~ in January ~~2022.~~2022 for the settlement of a contingent consideration agreement.

Financing Activities. We finance a portion of our capital expenditures, acquisitions and working capital requirements with borrowings under the Credit Facility, term debt and equity offerings. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was ~~$65.1~~$221.6 million compared to ~~$35.0~~$112.3 million for the same period of 2021. ~~This change~~The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to ~~repayment~~the following:

•Redemptions of ~~approximately $73.0 million~~the 6.125% Senior Notes and Second Lien Notes, and

•An offsetting cash inflow due to the issuance of the 7.50% Senior Notes.

See “Note 6 – Borrowings” for additional information on ~~the Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2022, which reflects~~ our ~~continued commitment and focus on deleveraging.~~debt transactions.

Credit Facility. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, our Credit Facility had a borrowing base of $1.6 billion, with an elected commitment amount of $1.6 billion, borrowings outstanding of ~~$712.0~~$779.0 million at a weighted average interest rate of ~~2.74%~~4.16%, and ~~$23.0~~$16.4 million in letters of credit outstanding. On May 2, 2022, as a result of the spring 2022 redetermination, the borrowing base and elected commitment amount of $1.6 billion were reaffirmed.

Our Credit Facility contains certain covenants including restrictions on additional indebtedness, payment of cash dividends and maintenance of certain financial ratios. Under the Credit Facility, we must maintain the following financial covenants determined as of the last day of the quarter: (1) a Leverage Ratio of no more than 4.00 to 1.00 and (2) a Current Ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00. We were in compliance with these covenants at March 31, 2022.

The Credit Facility also places restrictions on us and certain of our subsidiaries with respect to additional indebtedness, liens, dividends and other payments to shareholders, repurchases or redemptions of our common stock, redemptions of senior notes, investments, acquisitions, mergers, asset dispositions, transactions with affiliates, hedging transactions and other matters.

See “Note 6 – Borrowings” for additional information related to the Credit Facility.

Material Cash Requirements. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we have financial obligations associated with our outstanding long-term debt, including interest payments and principal repayments. See “Note 7 - Borrowings” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2021 Annual Report for further discussion of the contractual commitments under our debt agreements, including the timing of

principal repayments. Additionally, we have operational obligations associated with long-term, non-cancelable leases, drilling rig contracts, frac service contracts, gathering, processing and transportation service agreements and estimates of future asset retirement obligations. See “Note 14 - Asset Retirement Obligations” and “Note 17 - Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2021 Annual Report for additional details.

Since December 31, 2021, there have been no material changes from what was disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report other than the ~~changes~~following:

•Changes to the borrowings under our Credit Facility, ~~as well as an amended~~

•Amended frac service contract executed in the first quarter of 2022 through the remainder of 2022 with a remaining obligation of approximately $20.0 million as of June 30, 2022,

•Extensions of two drilling rigs executed in the second quarter of 2022 for the next 12 to 18 months for an incremental obligation of approximately ~~$30.0 million.~~$25.0 million as of June 30, 2022, and

•Issuance of the 7.50% Senior Notes due 2030 and redemptions of the 6.125% Senior Notes due 2024 and Second Lien Notes due 2025 in the second quarter of 2022.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments affecting estimates and assumptions for reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Certain of such estimates and assumptions are inherently unpredictable and will differ from actual results. Our policies and use of estimates are described in “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2021 Annual Report. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates since December 31, 2021, which are disclosed in “Part II, Item 7A. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our 2021 Annual Report

Oil and Natural Gas Properties

The table below presents various pricing scenarios to demonstrate the sensitivity of our ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 cost center ceiling to changes in 12-month average benchmark crude oil and natural gas prices underlying the 12-Month Average Realized Prices. The sensitivity analysis is as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 and, accordingly, does not consider drilling and completion activity, acquisitions or dispositions of oil and gas properties, production, changes in crude oil and natural gas prices, and changes in development and operating costs occurring subsequent to ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 that may require revisions to estimates of proved reserves. See also “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors—If oil and natural gas prices remain depressed for extended periods of time, we may be required to make significant downward adjustments to the carrying value of our oil and natural gas properties” in our 2021 Annual Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to a variety of market risks including commodity price risk, interest rate risk and counterparty and customer credit risk. We mitigate these risks through a program of risk management including the use of commodity derivative instruments.

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the sources and effects of our market risk since December 31, 2021, which are disclosed in “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Commodity Price Risk

Our revenues are derived from the sale of our oil, natural gas and NGL production. The prices for oil, natural gas and NGLs remain volatile and sometimes experience large fluctuations as a result of relatively small changes in supply, government actions, economic conditions, and weather conditions. We enter into commodity derivative instruments to manage oil, natural gas and NGL price risk, related both to NYMEX benchmark prices and regional basis differentials.

The following table sets forth the fair values of our commodity derivative instruments as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022 ~~excluding deferred premium obligations,~~ as well as the impact on the fair values assuming a 10% increase and decrease in the underlying forward oil and gas price curves as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022:

(1)Spot prices for oil and natural gas were ~~$99.66~~$104.83 and ~~$5.64,~~$5.42, respectively, as of ~~March 31, 2022.~~June 30, 2022.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates on our indebtedness under our Credit Facility. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, we had ~~$712.0~~$779.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facility with a weighted average interest rate of ~~2.74%~~4.16%. An increase or decrease of 1.00% in the interest rate would have a corresponding increase or decrease in our annual interest expense of approximately ~~$7.1~~$7.8 million, based on the balance outstanding as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022. See “Note 6 - Borrowings” for more information on our Credit Facility.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are a party in various legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. While the outcome of these events cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the ultimate resolution of any such actions will not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In January 2022, we received a Notice of Violation from the United States Environmental Protection Agency related to the Clean Air Act. The enforcement action will likely result in monetary sanctions yet-to-be specified and corrective actions, which may increase our development costs and/or operating costs. We are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this matter at this time, however, we believe that any penalties, mitigation costs, or corrective actions that may result from this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth under the heading “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.
