NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS —

UNAUDITED

NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Matador Resources Company, a Texas corporation (“Matador” and, collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, production and acquisition of oil and natural gas resources in the United States, with an emphasis on oil and natural gas shale and other unconventional plays. The Company’s current operations are focused primarily on the oil and liquids-rich portion of the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin in Southeast New Mexico and West Texas. The Company also operates in the Eagle Ford shale play in South Texas and the Haynesville shale and Cotton Valley plays in Northwest Louisiana. Additionally, the Company conducts midstream operations, primarily through its midstream joint ventures, San Mateo Midstream, LLC (“San Mateo I”) and San Mateo Midstream II, LLC (“San Mateo II” and, together with San Mateo I, “San Mateo”), in support of the Company’s exploration, development and production operations and provides natural gas processing, oil transportation services, oil, natural gas and salt water gathering services and salt water disposal services to third parties.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Interim Financial Statements, Basis of Presentation, Consolidation and Significant Estimates

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) but do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC on March 2, 2020 (the “Annual Report”). The Company consolidates certain subsidiaries and joint ventures that are less than wholly-owned and are not involved in oil and natural gas exploration, including San Mateo, and the net income and equity attributable to the non-controlling interest in these subsidiaries have been reported separately as required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Consolidation (Topic 810). The Company proportionately consolidates certain joint ventures that are less than wholly-owned and are involved in oil and natural gas exploration. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In management’s opinion, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. Amounts as of December 31, 2019 are derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions may also affect disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including oil and natural gas revenues, accrued assets and liabilities, stock-based compensation, valuation of derivative instruments, deferred tax assets and liabilities and oil and natural gas reserves. The estimates of oil and natural gas reserves quantities and future net cash flows are the basis for the calculations of depletion and impairment of oil and natural gas properties, as well as estimates of asset retirement obligations and certain tax accruals. While the Company believes its estimates are reasonable, changes in facts and assumptions or the discovery of new information may result in revised estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Property and Equipment

The Company uses the full-cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, all costs associated with the ~~Company is required to perform a ceiling test each quarter that determines a limit, or ceiling, on the capitalized costs of oil~~acquisition, exploration and natural gas properties based primarily on the after-tax estimated future net cash flows from oil and natural gas properties using a 10% discount rate and the arithmetic average of first-day-of-the-month oil and natural gas prices for the prior 12-month period. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the cost center ceiling was higher than the capitalized costsdevelopment of oil and natural gas properties and reserves, including unproved and unevaluated property costs, are capitalized as incurred and accumulated into a ~~result, 0 impairment charge was necessary.~~

single cost center representing the Company’s activities, which are undertaken exclusively in the United States. Such costs include lease acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenditures, lease rentals on undeveloped properties, costs of drilling both productive and non-productive wells, capitalized interest on qualifying projects and certain general and administrative expenses directly related to acquisition, exploration and development activities, but do not include any costs related to production, selling or general corporate administrative activities. The Company capitalized approximately ~~$8.2~~$8.1 million and $8.4 million of its general and administrative costs and approximately ~~$1.4~~$1.8 million and ~~$1.6~~$2.6 million of its interest expense for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company capitalized approximately $16.3 million and $16.8 million of its general and administrative costs and approximately $3.2 million and $4.2 million of its interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The net capitalized costs of oil and natural gas properties are limited to the lower of amortized costs less related deferred income taxes or the cost center “ceiling.” The cost center ceiling is defined as the sum of:

(a)the present value, discounted at 10%, of future net revenues of proved oil and natural gas reserves, reduced by the estimated costs of developing these reserves, plus

(b)unproved and unevaluated property costs not being amortized, plus

(c)the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved and unevaluated properties included in the costs being amortized, if any, less

(d)income tax effects related to the properties involved.

Any excess of the Company’s net capitalized costs above the cost center ceiling as described above is charged to operations as a full-cost ceiling impairment. The need for a full-cost ceiling impairment is required to be assessed on a quarterly basis. The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments is not included in the ceiling test computation as the Company does not designate these instruments as hedge instruments for accounting purposes.

The estimated present value of after-tax future net cash flows from proved oil and natural gas reserves is highly dependent upon the quantities of proved reserves, the estimation of which requires substantial judgment. The Company’s oil and natural gas reserves estimates are prepared by the Company’s engineering staff in accordance with guidelines established by the SEC. Under these guidelines, oil and natural gas reserves are estimated using then-current operating and economic conditions, with no provision for price and cost escalations in future periods except by contractual agreements. Future net revenues are calculated using prices that represent the arithmetic averages of first-day-of-the-month oil and natural gas prices for the previous 12-month period, and the guidelines further dictate that a 10% discount factor be used to determine the present value of future revenues. For the period from July 2019 to June 2020, the average oil and natural gas prices were $43.60 per barrel and $2.07 per MMBtu, respectively. In estimating the present value of after-tax future net cash flows from proved oil and natural gas reserves, the average oil and natural gas prices were adjusted by property for quality, energy content, transportation and marketing fees and regional price differentials.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES — Continued

Using average commodity prices, as adjusted, to determine the Company’s estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves at June 30, 2020, the Company’s net capitalized costs less related deferred income taxes exceeded the full-cost ceiling by $243.9 million. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $324.0 million to its net capitalized costs and a deferred income tax benefit of $80.1 million at June 30, 2020. These charges are reflected in the Company’s interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s net capitalized costs less related deferred income taxes did not exceed the full-cost ceiling. As a result, the Company recorded 0 impairment to its net capitalized costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

The borrowing base under the Credit Agreement is determined semi-annually as of May 1 and November 1 by the lenders based primarily on the estimated value of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves at December 31 and June 30 of each year, respectively. The Company and the lenders may each request an unscheduled redetermination of the borrowing base once between scheduled redetermination dates. In February 2020, the lenders completed their review of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves at December 31, 2019, and, as a result, the borrowing base was affirmed at $900.0 million. The Company elected to increase the borrowing commitment from $500.0 million to $700.0 million, and the maximum facility amount remained $1.5 billion. This February 2020 redetermination constituted the regularly scheduled May 1 redetermination. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are limited to the lowest of the borrowing base, the maximum facility amount and the elected ~~commitment.~~commitment (subject to compliance with the covenant noted below).

In April 2020, the Company restructured a portion of its oil derivative contracts, increasing its oil volumes hedged during the period from April through December 2020. As part of this restructuring, the Company repurchased the call options on certain existing open costless collars and kept the remaining put options, which represent options to sell at a specific exercise price, exchanged certain existing open costless collars and added swaps.

As a result of this restructuring process, the Company’s open oil derivative contracts for the period from April through December 2020 have changed. The restructuring transactions were executed with the same counterparties and were costless to the Company. As a result, the execution of the restructuring transactions is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. No changes were made to the Company’s open oil basis swaps from those positions noted above. In April 2020, the Company also entered into oil swaps for 2021 and natural gas collars for late 2020 and early 2021.

Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories.

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes those derivative instruments that are valued with industry standard models that consider various inputs, including: (i) quoted forward prices for commodities, (ii) time value of money and (iii) current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the derivative instrument and can be derived from observable data or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data that reflect a company’s own market assumptions.

Financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, which may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The following tables summarize the valuation of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with the classifications provided above as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (in thousands).

NOTE 9 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Processing, Transportation and Salt Water Disposal Commitments

From time to time, the Company enters into agreements with third parties whereby the Company commits to deliver anticipated natural gas and oil production and salt water from certain portions of its acreage for gathering, transportation, processing, fractionation, sales and, in the case of salt water, disposal. The Company paid approximately ~~$11.0~~$11.4 million and ~~$6.8~~$6.1 million for deliveries under these agreements during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $22.4 million and $12.9 million for deliveries under these agreements during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Certain of these agreements contain minimum volume commitments. If the Company does not meet the minimum volume commitments under these agreements, it will be required to pay certain deficiency fees. If the Company ceased operations in the areas subject to these agreements at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the total deficiencies required to be paid by the Company under these agreements would be approximately ~~$398.1~~$387.9 million, in addition to the commitments described below.

In late 2017, the Company entered into a fixed-fee NGL sales agreement whereby the Company committed to deliver its NGL production at the tailgate of the Black River cryogenic natural gas processing plant in Eddy County, New Mexico (the “Black River Processing Plant”) to a certain counterparty. The Company is committed to deliver a minimum amount of NGLs to the counterparty upon construction and completion of a pipeline extension and a fractionation facility by the counterparty, which is currently expected to be completed in 2020. The Company has no rights to compel the counterparty to construct this pipeline extension or fractionation facility. If the counterparty does not construct the pipeline extension and fractionation facility, then the Company would not have any minimum volume commitments under the agreement. If the counterparty constructs the pipeline extension and fractionation facility on or prior to February 28, 2021, then the Company would have a commitment to deliver a minimum amount of NGLs for seven years following the completion of the counterparty’s pipeline extension and fractionation ~~facility.~~facility, which was completed on July 1, 2020. If the Company does not meet its NGL volume commitment in any quarter during the ~~seven-year~~seven-year commitment period, it would be required to pay a deficiency fee per gallon of NGL below the Company’s commitment. ~~Should the pipeline extension and fractionation facility be completed on or prior to February 28, 2021, the~~The minimum contractual obligation during the ~~seven-year~~seven-year period ~~would be~~is approximately ~~$129.2~~$130.6 million.

In October 2019, the Company entered into a 15-year, fixed-fee natural gas transportation agreement whereby the Company committed to deliver a portion of the residue gas production at the tailgate of the Black River Processing Plant to transport through the counterparty’s pipeline. The agreement begins when the counterparty’s pipeline is placed in service, which is anticipated to be in the ~~third quarter~~second half of 2020. Should the pipeline be placed in service, the Company would owe the fees to transport the committed volume whether or not the committed volume is transported through the counterparty’s pipeline, and the minimum contractual obligation would be approximately $106.9 million.

Delaware Basin — San Mateo

In February 2017, the Company dedicated its current and future leasehold interests in the Rustler Breaks and Wolf asset areas pursuant to 15-year, fixed-fee natural gas, oil and salt water gathering agreements and salt water disposal agreements with subsidiaries of San Mateo I. In addition, the Company dedicated its current and future leasehold interests in the Rustler Breaks asset area pursuant to a 15-year, fixed-fee natural gas processing agreement (collectively with the gathering and salt water disposal agreements, the “Operational Agreements”). San Mateo I provides the Company with firm service under each of the Operational Agreements in exchange for certain minimum volume commitments. The remaining minimum contractual obligation under the Operational Agreements at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was approximately $150.7 million.

In connection with the February 2019 formation of San Mateo II, the Company dedicated to San Mateo II acreage in the Greater Stebbins Area and the Stateline asset area pursuant to 15-year, fixed-fee agreements for oil, natural gas and salt water gathering, natural gas processing and salt water disposal (collectively, the “San Mateo II Operational Agreements”).

NOTE 11 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates in 2 business segments: (i) exploration and production and (ii) midstream. The exploration and production segment is engaged in the exploration, development, production and acquisition of oil and natural gas resources in the United States and is currently focused primarily on the oil and liquids-rich portion of the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin in Southeast New Mexico and West Texas. The Company also operates in the Eagle Ford shale play in South Texas and the Haynesville shale and Cotton Valley plays in Northwest Louisiana. The midstream segment conducts midstream operations in support of the Company’s exploration, development and production operations and provides natural gas processing, oil transportation services, oil, natural gas and salt water gathering services and salt water disposal services to third parties. Substantially all of the Company’s midstream operations in the Rustler Breaks, Wolf and Stateline asset areas and the Greater Stebbins Area in the Delaware Basin are conducted through San Mateo.

The following tables present selected financial information for the periods presented regarding the Company’s business segments on a stand-alone basis, corporate expenses that are not allocated to a segment and the consolidation and elimination entries necessary to arrive at the financial information for the Company on a consolidated basis (in thousands). On a consolidated basis, midstream services revenues consist primarily of those revenues from midstream operations related to third parties, including working interest owners in the Company’s operated wells. All midstream services revenues associated with Company-owned production are eliminated in consolidation. In evaluating the operating results of the exploration and production and midstream segments, the Company does not allocate certain expenses to the individual segments, including general and administrative expenses. Such expenses are reflected in the column labeled “Corporate.”

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report constitute “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”). Additionally, forward-looking statements may be made orally or in press releases, conferences, reports, on our website or otherwise, in the future by us or on our behalf. Such statements are generally identifiable by the terminology used such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecasted,” “hypothetical,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” or other similar words, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words.

By their very nature, forward-looking statements require us to make assumptions that may not materialize or that may not be accurate. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such factors include, among others: general economic conditions; our ability to execute our business plan, including whether our drilling program is successful; changes in oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids prices and the demand for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids; our ability to replace reserves and efficiently develop current reserves; costs of operations; delays and other difficulties related to producing oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids; delays and other difficulties related to regulatory and governmental approvals and restrictions; availability of sufficient capital to execute our business plan, including from future cash flows, ~~increases in~~available borrowing capacity under our ~~borrowing base~~revolving credit facilities and otherwise; our ability to make acquisitions on economically acceptable terms; our ability to integrate acquisitions; weather and environmental conditions; the impact of the worldwide spread of the novel coronavirus ~~pandemic~~(“COVID-19”) on oil and natural gas demand, oil and natural gas prices and our business; the operating results of San Mateo’s expansion of the Black River cryogenic natural gas processing plant, including the timing of the further expansion of such plant; the timing and operating results of the buildout by San Mateo of oil, natural gas and water gathering and transportation systems and the drilling of any additional salt water disposal wells, including in conjunction with the expansion of San Mateo’s services and assets into new areas in Eddy County, New Mexico; and the other factors discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in other documents that we file with or furnish to the SEC, all of which are difficult to predict. Forward-looking statements may include statements about:

•our business strategy;

•our estimated future reserves and the present value thereof, including whether or to what extent a full-cost ceiling impairment could be realized;

•our cash flows and liquidity;

•our financial strategy, budget, projections and operating results;

Although we believe that the expectations conveyed by the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are reasonable based on information available to us on the date hereof, no assurances can be given as to future results, levels of activity, achievements or financial condition.

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should recognize that the statements are predictions of future results, which may not occur as anticipated. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and from historical results, due to the risks and uncertainties described above, as well as others not now anticipated. The impact of any one factor on a particular forward-looking statement is not determinable with certainty as such factors are interdependent upon other factors. The foregoing statements are not exclusive and further information concerning us, including factors that potentially could materially affect our financial results, may emerge from time to time. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements, except as required by law, including the securities laws of the United States and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Overview

We are an independent energy company founded in July 2003 engaged in the exploration, development, production and acquisition of oil and natural gas resources in the United States, with an emphasis on oil and natural gas shale and other unconventional plays. Our current operations are focused primarily on the oil and liquids-rich portion of the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin in Southeast New Mexico and West Texas. We also operate in the Eagle Ford shale play in South Texas and the Haynesville shale and Cotton Valley plays in Northwest Louisiana. Additionally, we conduct midstream operations, primarily through San Mateo, in support of our exploration, development and production operations and provide natural gas processing, oil transportation services, oil, natural gas and salt water gathering services and salt water disposal services to third parties.

Operations Update

During the first ~~quarter~~half of 2020, the oil and natural gas industry witnessed an abrupt and significant decline in oil prices from $63 per Bbl in early January to ~~just above $20~~as low as ($38) per Bbl in late ~~March.~~April. This sudden decline in oil prices was attributable to two primary factors: ~~(1)~~(i) the precipitous decline in global oil demand resulting from the worldwide spread of ~~the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”)~~COVID-19 and ~~(2)~~(ii) a sudden, unexpected increase in global oil supply resulting from actions initiated by Saudi Arabia to increase its oil production to world markets following the failure of efforts by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and Russia (“OPEC+”) to agree on coordinated production cuts at their March 6, 2020 meetings in Vienna, Austria. Primarily as a result of these unexpected events and the resulting declines in oil prices, ~~Matador has~~we significantly modified ~~its~~our 2020 operational plan.

We began 2020 operating six drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin, as we continued to focus on the exploration, delineation and development of our Delaware Basin acreage in Loving County, Texas and Lea and Eddy Counties, New Mexico. We had originally planned to operate these six drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin throughout 2020. As a result of the events noted above, however, we released (i) one operated drilling rig from our Wolf asset area ~~in Loving County, Texas~~ late in the first quarter of 2020, ~~and we released~~(ii) a second operated drilling rig from the Stebbins area and surrounding leaseholds in the southern portion of the Arrowhead asset area (the “Greater Stebbins Area”) in late April ~~2020. We anticipate releasing one additional~~2020 and (iii) a third operated drilling rig ~~by the end of the second quarter of~~from our Rustler Breaks asset area in late June 2020. ~~Thereafter, we~~We expect to operate three drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin throughout the remainder of 2020. Two of these rigs are anticipated to operate in our Stateline asset area, ~~in Eddy County, New Mexico,~~ and the third rig is expected to operate primarily in the Rustler Breaks and Antelope Ridge asset areas.

We completed and turned to sales a total of 3613 gross ~~(15.9~~(8.3 net) wells in the Delaware Basin during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, including 1711 gross ~~(15.6~~(8.3 net) operated horizontal wells and 19two gross ~~(0.3~~(less than 0.1 net) non-operated horizontal wells. During the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, we completed and turned to sales a total of 17three gross ~~(10.5~~(1.0 net) wells in the Antelope Ridge asset area, including 11one gross ~~(10.4~~(1.0 net) operated ~~wells~~well and ~~six~~two gross ~~(0.1~~(less than 0.1 net) non-operated wells. The 11one gross operated ~~wells~~well turned to sales in the Antelope Ridge asset area ~~included two Avalon completions, one First Bone Spring completion, four Second Bone Spring completions, one Third Bone Spring completion, two~~was a Wolfcamp A ~~completions and one Wolfcamp B~~ completion. These wells also included the first six gross (6.0 net) “Rodney Robinson” wells completed in the western portion of the Antelope Ridge asset area. The 1,200 gross and net acre Rodney Robinson tract is one of the key tracts we acquired in the BLM New Mexico Oil and Gas Lease Sale in September 2018 (the “BLM Acquisition”). These six Rodney Robinson wells, all two-mile laterals, were also the first wells drilled and completed on the 8,400 gross and net acres we acquired in the BLM Acquisition.

In the Rustler Breaks asset area, we began producing oil and natural gas from a total of ~~16 gross (2.8 net) wells, including three~~five gross (2.6 net) operated wells, ~~and 13 gross (0.2 net) non-operated wells. Of the~~of which three ~~gross operated wells completed and turned to sales in the Rustler Breaks asset area, two~~ were Wolfcamp A completions and ~~one was a~~two were Wolfcamp B ~~completion.~~completions. In the Wolf and Jackson Trust asset areas, we began producing oil and natural gas from ~~three~~five gross ~~(2.6~~(4.7 net) operated wells during the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, ~~all~~ of which three were Second Bone Spring completions, one was a Third Bone Spring Carbonate completion and one was a Wolfcamp A ~~completions.~~completion.

Our ~~total~~average daily oil equivalent production in the Delaware Basin ~~production~~ for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020 was ~~60,300~~66,000 BOE per day, consisting of ~~38,500~~41,500 Bbl of oil per day and ~~130.9~~146.9 MMcf of natural gas per day, a ~~15%~~27% increase from production of ~~52,600~~51,800 BOE per day, consisting of ~~32,000~~32,800 Bbl of oil per day and ~~123.9~~113.5 MMcf of natural gas per day, in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019. The Delaware Basin contributed approximately ~~95% of our daily oil production and approximately 71% of our daily natural gas production in the first quarter of 2020, as compared to approximately 93%~~96% of our daily oil production and approximately 81% of our daily natural gas production in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, as compared to approximately 89% of our daily oil production and approximately 77% of our daily natural gas production in the second quarter of 2019.

During the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, we did not ~~conduct~~complete and turn to sales any operated ~~drilling and completion activities~~or non-operated wells on our leasehold properties in the Eagle Ford shale play in South Texas or in the Haynesville shale and Cotton Valley plays in Northwest Louisiana. ~~We did participate in the drilling and completion~~

~~Borrowing Base Increased~~

In February 2020, the lenders party to our reserves-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) completed their review of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves at December 31, 2019, and, as a result, the borrowing base was affirmed at $900.0 million. The Company elected to increase the borrowing commitment from $500.0 million to $700.0 million, and the maximum facility amount remained $1.5 billion. We also added two new banks to our lending group as part of this redetermination process. This February 2020 redetermination constituted the regularly scheduled May 1 redetermination. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are limited to the lowest of the borrowing base, the maximum facility amount and the elected commitment.

~~2020 Capital Expenditure Budget~~

On April 29, 2020, we decreased the range of our anticipated full-year 2020 capital expenditures for drilling, completing and equipping wells from $690.0 to $750.0 million to $440.0 to $500.0 million, as we plan to reduce our operated drilling program from six rigs to three rigs by June 30, 2020, as noted above. At April 29, 2020, the range of our estimated 2020 midstream capital expenditures remained $85.0 to $105.0 million. See “— Liquidity and Capital Resources — 2020 Capital Expenditure Budget” for more information.

~~Restructuring of Derivative Financial Instruments~~

During April 2020, we restructured a portion of our then-existing 2020 West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) oil derivative financial instruments, providing additional revenue protection should oil prices ~~remain at currently~~decline again to depressed levels, such as those experienced late in the first quarter and early in the second quarter of 2020, for the remainder of 2020 or should further market disruptions occur. As a result of these modifications, we almost doubled our oil volumes hedged for the period from April through December 2020. ~~At April 29, 2020, we had approximately 10.3 million Bbl of oil hedged for the period from April through December 2020.~~ These restructured derivative financial instruments ~~include~~included approximately 7.6 million Bbl of fixed-price oil swaps at a weighted average price of approximately $35 per Bbl and 2.3 million Bbl of oil collars with a weighted average floor price of approximately $48 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $66 per Bbl. We also ~~have~~had approximately 0.4 million Bbl in oil put options, which represent options to sell at a specified exercise price, at a weighted average price of approximately $48 per Bbl for the period from April through June 2020. The Company recorded $44.1 million in realized gains on derivatives during the second quarter of 2020.

In addition, during ~~April~~the second quarter of 2020, we added approximately ~~5.5~~2.0 million Bbl of oil swaps at a weighted average price of approximately $35 per Bbl and 2.4 million Bbl of oil costless collars with a weighted average floor price of approximately $35 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $46 per Bbl for 2021. We also added natural gas collars for November and December 2020 for approximately 3.2 million MMBtu and for the first quarter of 2021 for approximately 4.8 million MMBtu, each with a weighted average floor price of approximately $2.52 per MMBtu and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $3.71 per MMBtu.

Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 as Compared to Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019

Oil and natural gas revenues. Our oil and natural gas revenues ~~increased $4.6~~decreased $92.3 million, or 2%44%, to ~~$197.9~~$118.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$193.3~~$211.1 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Our oil revenues ~~increased $15.4~~decreased $94.9 million, or ~~10%~~50%, to ~~$169.6~~$94.2 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020,, as compared to ~~$154.2~~$189.1 million for the three months ended ~~March 31, 2019~~.June 30, 2019. The ~~increase~~decrease in oil revenues resulted from a 57% decrease in the ~~19% increase in our~~weighted average oil ~~production to 3.7 million Bbl of oil~~price realized for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 to $24.03 per Bbl, as compared to ~~3.1 million~~$56.51 per Bbl ~~of oil~~ for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. This decrease in oil revenues was partially offset by the 17% increase in oil production to 3.9 million Bbl for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 3.3 million Bbl for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in oil production was primarily attributable to our ongoing delineation and development drilling activities in the Delaware Basin. This increase was partially offset by a lower weighted average oil price realized for the three months ended March 31, 2020 of $45.87 per Bbl, a decrease of 8% as compared to $49.64 per Bbl realized for the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our natural gas revenues ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$10.7~~$2.6 million, or ~~27%~~12%, to ~~$28.3~~$24.6 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$39.1~~$22.0 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. The ~~decrease~~increase in natural gas revenues resulted from a 40% decrease in realized natural gas prices to $1.70 per Mcf for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to $2.85 per Mcf realized for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was partially offset by the 22%23% increase in our natural gas production to ~~16.7~~16.5 Bcf for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~13.7~~13.4 Bcf for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. The increase in natural gas production was primarily attributable to our ongoing delineation and development drilling activities in the Delaware Basin as well as from significant volumes of natural gas production associated with two non-operated Haynesville shale wells completed and placed on production during the third quarter of 2019. The increase in natural gas revenues was partially offset by a 9% decrease in the weighted average natural gas price realized for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $1.49 per Mcf, as compared to $1.64 per Mcf for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Third-party midstream services revenues. Our third-party midstream services revenues increased ~~$4.0~~$0.3 million, or ~~34%~~2%, to ~~$15.8~~$14.7 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$11.8~~$14.4 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Third-party midstream services revenues are those revenues from midstream operations related to third parties, including working interest owners in our operated wells. This increase was primarily attributable to ~~(i)~~ an increase in our third-party oil gathering and transportation revenues to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which was partially offset by a decrease in our third-party natural gas gathering, transportation and processing revenues to approximately ~~$7.1~~$6.3 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$4.5~~$6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and (ii) an increase in our third-party salt water gathering and disposal revenues to approximately $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to approximately $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2019.

Sales of purchased natural gas. Our sales of purchased natural gas ~~decreased $0.7~~increased $5.0 million, or 6%56%, to ~~$10.5~~$14.0 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$11.2~~$9.0 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. ~~The decrease~~This increase was primarily the result of ~~a decrease~~an increase in ~~both the volume sold and the weighted average~~ natural gas ~~price realized for~~volumes sold during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. Sales of purchased natural gas ~~primarily~~ reflect those natural gas purchase transactions that we periodically enter into with third parties whereby we purchase natural gas and (i) subsequently sell the natural gas to other purchasers or (ii) process the natural gas at San Mateo’s Black River cryogenic natural gas processing plant in Eddy County, New Mexico (the “Black River Processing Plant”) and subsequently sell the residue gas and natural gas liquids (“NGL”) to other purchasers. These revenues, and the expenses related to these transactions included in “Purchased natural gas,” are presented on a gross basis in our interim unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Lease bonus - mineral acreage. Our lease bonus - mineral acreage revenues were $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Lease bonus - mineral acreage revenues reflect the payments we receive to enter into or extend leases to third-party lessees to develop the oil and natural gas attributable to certain of our mineral interests. We received no lease bonuses on our mineral acreage for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Realized gain on derivatives. Our realized net gain on derivatives was ~~$10.9~~$44.1 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to a realized net gain of ~~$3.3~~$1.2 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. We realized a net gain of ~~$11.5~~$41.9 million related to our oil costless collar, put and swap contracts for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, resulting from oil prices that were below the floor prices of certain of our oil costless collar contracts and below the strike prices of certain of our oil put and swap contracts. We realized a net ~~loss~~gain of ~~$0.6~~$2.2 million related to our oil basis swap contracts for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, resulting from oil basis prices that were ~~above~~below the fixed prices of certain of our oil basis swap contracts. We realized an average gain on our oil derivatives contracts of approximately ~~$2.94~~$11.25 per Bbl produced during the three months

Table of Contents

ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to an average gain of approximately ~~$1.08~~$0.35 per Bbl produced during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Our total oil volumes hedged for the three months ended March 31, 2020 represented 54% of our total oil production, as compared to 44% of our total oil production for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Unrealized (loss) gain ~~(loss)~~ on derivatives. Our unrealized net ~~gain~~loss on derivatives was ~~$136.4~~$132.7 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to an unrealized net ~~loss~~gain of ~~$45.7~~$6.2 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the net fair value of our open oil and natural gas derivative contracts decreased to a net liability of $0.1 million from a net asset of $132.6 million at March 31, 2020, resulting in an unrealized loss on derivatives of $132.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the net fair value of our open oil and natural gas derivative contracts increased to a net asset of ~~$132.6~~$10.3 million from a net ~~liability~~asset of ~~$3.9~~$4.1 million at ~~December~~March 31, 2019, resulting in an unrealized gain on derivatives of ~~$136.4~~$6.2 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 as Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Oil and natural gas revenues. Our oil and natural gas revenues decreased $87.6 million, or 22%, to $316.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $404.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Our oil revenues decreased $79.5 million, or 23%, to $263.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $343.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease in oil revenues resulted from a 35% decrease in the weighted average oil price realized for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $34.63 per Bbl, as compared to $53.20 per Bbl for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was partially offset by the 18% increase in our oil production to 7.6 million Bbl for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 6.5 million Bbl for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in oil production was primarily attributable to our ongoing delineation and development drilling activities in the Delaware Basin. Our natural gas revenues decreased by $8.1 million, or 13%, to $52.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $61.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in natural gas revenues resulted from a 29% decrease in the weighted average natural gas price realized for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $1.60 per Mcf, as compared to $2.25 per Mcf for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was partially offset by the 22% increase in our natural gas production to 33.2 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 27.1 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in natural gas production was primarily attributable to our ongoing delineation and development drilling activities in the Delaware Basin as well as from two non-operated Haynesville shale wells completed and placed on production during the third quarter of 2019.

Third-party midstream services revenues. Our third-party midstream services revenues increased $4.3 million, or 16%, to $30.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $26.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to (i) an increase in natural gas gathering, transportation and processing revenues to approximately $13.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, (ii) an increase in our third-party salt water gathering and disposal revenues to approximately $12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to approximately $12.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and (iii) an increase in our third-party oil gathering and transportation revenues to approximately $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Sales of purchased natural gas. Our sales of purchased natural gas increased $4.3 million, or 21%, to $24.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $20.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in natural gas volumes sold during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Lease bonus - mineral acreage. Our lease bonus - mineral acreage revenues were $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. We received no lease bonuses on our mineral acreage for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Realized gain on derivatives. Our realized net gain on derivatives was $55.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to a realized net gain of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. We realized a net gain of $53.4 million related to our oil costless collar, put and swap contracts for the six months ended June 30, 2020, resulting from oil prices that were below the floor prices of certain of our oil costless collar contracts and below the strike prices of certain of our oil put and swap contracts. We realized a net gain of $1.5 million related to our oil basis swap contracts for the six months ended June 30, 2020, resulting from oil basis prices that were below the fixed prices of certain of our oil basis swap contracts. We realized an average gain on our oil derivatives of approximately $7.22 per Bbl produced during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to an average gain of $0.71 per Bbl produced during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Unrealized (loss) gain on derivatives. Our unrealized net gain on derivatives was $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to an unrealized net loss of $39.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. During the ~~three months ended March~~period from December 31, 2019 through June 30, 2020, the aggregate net fair value of our open oil and natural gas derivative contracts increased to a net liability of approximately $0.1 million from a net liability of approximately $3.9 million, resulting in an unrealized gain on derivatives of approximately $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. During the period from December 31, 2018 through June 30, 2019, the aggregate net fair value of our open oil and natural gas derivative contracts

Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 as Compared to Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019

Production taxes, transportation and processing. Our production taxes and transportation and processing expenses ~~increased $2.1~~decreased $2.7 million, or ~~10%~~13%, to ~~$21.7~~$18.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$19.7~~$21.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to the $1.5 million increase in transportation and processing fees to $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, principally due to the 22% increase in our natural gas production to 16.7 Bcf of natural gas for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to 13.7 Bcf of natural gas for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2019. On a unit-of-production basis, our production taxes and transportation and processing expenses decreased 8%27% to ~~$3.35~~$2.82 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$3.65~~$3.86 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. ~~This decrease was~~These decreases were primarily attributable to the ~~20% increase~~$6.6 million decrease in ~~our total oil equivalent~~ production taxes to ~~6.5~~$8.6 million ~~BOE~~ for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~5.4~~$15.2 million ~~BOE~~ for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, ~~and lower production taxes on a per unit basis as a result of~~primarily due to the decrease in the weighted average oil and natural gas prices realized between the two periods. This decrease was partially offset by a $3.9 million increase in transportation and processing expenses to $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the 23% increase in our natural gas production to 16.5 Bcf for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 13.4 Bcf for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Lease operating. Our lease operating expenses decreased ~~$0.3~~$0.2 million, or 1%, to ~~$30.9~~$26.2 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$31.2~~$26.4 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. This decrease was largely

These decreases were largely~~which was partially offset by increases in ~~compression, repairs~~ad valorem taxes and other expenses related to the increased number of ~~$5.7 million. On~~wells at June 30, 2020, as compared to June 30, 2019. Our lease operating expenses on a unit-of-production basis ~~our lease operating expenses~~ decreased 17% to ~~$4.77~~$3.92 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$5.78~~$4.72 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31, 2019. This decrease~~June 30, 2019, which was further attributable to the 20% increase in our total oil equivalent production to ~~6.5~~6.7 million BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~5.4~~5.6 million BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

Plant and other midstream services operating. Our plant and other midstream services operating expenses increased ~~$0.6~~$1.4 million, or 7%16%, to ~~$10.0~~$9.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$9.3~~$8.4 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to increased expenses associated with our expanded commercial salt water disposal operations of ~~$5.1~~$5.4 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$4.3~~$3.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, which were partially offset by decreased expenses associated with the Black River Processing Plant of $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Depletion, depreciation and amortization. Our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses increased ~~$13.8~~$13.2 million, or ~~18%~~16%, to ~~$90.7~~$93.4 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$76.9~~$80.1 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to (i) the 20% increase in our total oil equivalent production to ~~6.5~~6.7 million BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~5.4~~5.6 million BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, and (ii) increased depreciation expenses attributable to our midstream segment of ~~$4.8~~$5.0 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$3.7~~$3.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. On a unit-of-production basis, our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses decreased 2%3% to ~~$14.01~~$14.00 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$14.25~~$14.37 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. On a unit-of-production basis, the impact of the higher total proved oil and natural gas reserves at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, primarily attributable to our ongoing delineation and development activities in the Delaware Basin, was largely offset by the increase in total oil equivalent production for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

Full-cost ceiling impairment. ~~We use~~At June 30, 2020, the full-cost method of accounting for our investments in oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, we are required to perform a ceiling test each quarter that determines a limit, or ceiling, on thenet capitalized costs of our oil and natural gas properties based primarily on the after-tax estimated future net cash flows from oil and natural gas properties using a 10% discount rate and the arithmetic average of first-day-of-the-month oil and natural gas prices for the prior 12-month period. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019,less related deferred income taxes exceeded the full-cost ceiling ~~was higher than~~by $243.9 million. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $324.0 million to the net capitalized costs of our oil and natural gas properties and as a ~~result, no~~deferred income tax benefit of $80.1 million. This full-cost ceiling impairment ~~charge was necessary.~~

~~The unweighted arithmetic average~~ of $324.0 million is reflected in our interim unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020. No impairment to the net carrying value of our oil and natural gas ~~prices as of the first day of each month~~properties and no corresponding charge resulting from a full-cost ceiling impairment were recorded for the ~~trailing 12-month period~~three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. In determining the full-cost ceiling impairment at June 30, 2020, ~~were $52.23 per Bbl~~we estimated the present value, discounted at 10%, (“PV-10”) of our total proved oil and ~~$2.30 per MMBtu, respectively. If~~natural gas reserves using the unweighted arithmetic average of oil and natural gas prices as of the first day of each month for the trailing 12-month period ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, ~~had been $42.42~~as required under the guidelines established by the SEC, which were $43.60 per Bbl and ~~$2.05~~$2.07 per MMBtu, respectively, while all other factors remained constant, our full-cost ceiling would have been impaired by approximately $550.0 million on a pro forma basis. The aforementioned pro forma prices, as estimated for the twelve month period July 2019 through June 2020, were calculated using a 12-month unweighted arithmetic average of oil and natural gas prices, which included the oil and natural gas prices on the first day of the month for the 10 months ended April 2020, with the price for April 2020 being held constant for May and June 2020. This pro forma excess of our net capitalized costs above the full-cost ceiling is attributable to a pro forma reduction of approximately $840.0 million in the estimated value, discounted at 10%, of our total proved oil and natural gas reserves, including a pro forma decrease in our estimated total proved reserves of approximately 8% from our estimated proved reserves at March 31, 2020, primarily attributable to certain proved undeveloped locations that would no longer be classified as proved undeveloped reserves using the pro forma prices. This calculation of the impact of lower commodity prices on our estimated total proved oil and natural gas reserves and our full-cost ceiling was prepared based on the presumption that all other inputs and assumptions are held constant with the exception of oil and natural gas prices. Therefore, this calculation strictly isolates the impact of commodity prices on our full-cost ceiling and proved reserves. The impact of prices is only one of several variables in the estimation of our proved reserves and full-cost ceiling and other factors could have a significant impact on our future proved reserves and the present value of future cash flows. The other factors that impact future estimates of proved reserves include, but are not limited to, extensions and discoveries, acquisitions of proved reserves, changes in drilling and completion and operating costs, drilling results, revisions due to well performance and other factors, changes in development plans and production, among others. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of proved oil and natural gas reserves and accounting for oil and natural gas properties in subsequent periods, and this pro forma estimate should not be construed as indicative of our development plans or future results. respectively.

General and administrative. Our general and administrative expenses decreased ~~$2.1~~$5.2 million, or ~~11%~~26%, to ~~$16.2~~$14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to cost reductions initially implemented during the three months ended March 31, 2020, ~~as compared to $18.3 million for~~including headcount and employee salary reductions, that were more fully realized during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to a decrease of $2.6 million in stock-based compensation expense related to our liability-based awards as a result of the decrease in the price of our common stock at March 31, 2020, as compared to December 31, 2019. This decrease was partially offset by decreased capitalized general and administrative expenses on certain qualifying projects between the two periods.June 30, 2020. Our general and administrative expenses decreased ~~26%~~38% on a unit-of-production basis to ~~$2.51~~$2.21 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$3.39~~$3.56 per BOE for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, which was further attributable to the 20% increase in our total oil equivalent production to 6.7 million BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 5.6 million BOE for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Interest expense. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we incurred total interest expense of ~~$21.3~~$20.1 million. We capitalized ~~$1.4~~$1.8 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and expensed the remaining ~~$19.8~~$18.3 million to operations. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, we incurred total interest expense

of ~~$19.6~~$20.7 million. We capitalized ~~$1.6~~$2.6 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 and expensed the remaining ~~$17.9~~$18.1 million to operations.

Total income tax (benefit) provision. We recorded a total income tax ~~expense~~benefit of ~~$40.0~~$109.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, and the effective tax rate was 24%, which differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rates to pre-tax ~~income~~loss due primarily to the impact of permanent differences between book and ~~taxable income~~tax loss and state taxes, primarily in New Mexico. ~~The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 24%.~~ We recorded a total income tax ~~benefit~~expense of ~~$1.0~~$12.9 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, and the effective tax rate was ~~33%~~26%, which differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to the pre-tax income due primarily to the impact of permanent differences between book and tax income.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 as Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2019

Production taxes, transportation and processing. Our production taxes and transportation and processing expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 2%, to $40.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $41.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. On a unit-of-production basis, our production taxes, transportation and processing expenses decreased 18% to $3.08 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $3.76 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2019. These decreases were primarily attributable to the $6.0 million decrease in production taxes to $22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $28.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the decrease in the weighted average oil and natural gas prices realized between the two periods. This decrease was partially offset by a $5.3 million increase in transportation and processing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the 22% increase in our natural gas production to 33.2 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 27.1 Bcf for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Lease operating. Our lease operating expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 1%, to $57.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $57.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was largely attributable to a decrease in salt water disposal expenses of approximately $6.0 million, which was partially offset by increases in ad valorem taxes and other expenses related to the increased number of wells at June 30, 2020, as compared to June 30, 2019. Our lease operating expenses on a unit-of-production basis decreased 17% to $4.34 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $5.24 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2019, which was further attributable to the 20% increase in our total oil equivalent production to 13.1 million BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 11.0 million BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Plant and other midstream services operating. Our plant and other midstream services operating expenses increased $2.0 million, or 11%, to $19.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $17.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to (i) increased expenses associated with our expanded commercial salt water disposal operations of $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $8.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and (ii) increased expenses associated with pipeline operations of $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, which were partially offset by decreased expenses associated with the Black River Processing Plant of $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Depletion, depreciation and amortization. Our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses increased $27.1 million, or 17%, to $184.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $157.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to (i) the 20% increase in our total oil equivalent production to 13.1 million BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 11.0 million BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and (ii) increased depreciation expenses attributable to our midstream segment of $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. On a unit-of-production basis, our depletion, depreciation and amortization expenses decreased 2% to $14.00 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $14.31 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2019. On a unit-of-production basis, the impact of the higher total proved oil and natural gas reserves at June 30, 2020, as compared to June 30, 2019, primarily attributable to our ongoing delineation and development activities in the Delaware Basin, was largely offset by the increase in total oil equivalent production for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Full-cost ceiling impairment. At June 30, 2020, the net capitalized costs of our oil and natural gas properties less related deferred income taxes exceeded the full-cost ceiling by $243.9 million. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $324.0 million to the net capitalized costs of our oil and natural gas properties and a deferred income tax benefit of $80.1 million. This full-cost ceiling impairment of $324.0 million is reflected in our interim unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020. No impairment to the net carrying value of our oil and natural gas properties and no corresponding charge resulting from a full-cost ceiling impairment were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2020 or for the six months ended June 30, 2019. In determining the full-cost ceiling impairment at June 30, 2020, we estimated the PV-10 of our total proved oil and natural gas reserves using the unweighted arithmetic average of oil and natural gas prices as of the first day of each month for the trailing 12-month period ended June 30, 2020, as required under the guidelines established by the SEC, which were $43.60 per Bbl and $2.07 per MMBtu, respectively.

General and administrative. Our general and administrative expenses decreased $7.2 million, or 19%, to $30.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $38.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to cost reductions initially implemented during the three months ended March 31, 2020, including headcount and employee salary reductions, that were more fully realized during the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our general and administrative expenses decreased 32% on a unit-of-production basis to $2.35 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $3.48 per BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2019, which was further attributable to the

20% increase in our total oil equivalent production to 13.1 million BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to 11.0 million BOE for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred total interest expense of $41.3 million. We capitalized $3.2 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and expensed the remaining $38.1 million to operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we incurred total interest expense of $40.2 million. We capitalized $4.2 million of our interest expense on certain qualifying projects for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and expensed the remaining $36.0 million to operations.

Total income tax (benefit) provision. We recorded a total income tax benefit of $69.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, and the effective tax rate was 23%, which differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rates to pre-tax loss due primarily to the impact of permanent differences between book and tax ~~loss.~~loss and state taxes, primarily in New Mexico. We recorded a total income tax expense of $11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and the effective tax rate was 37%, which differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to the pre-tax income due primarily to the impact of permanent differences between book and tax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary use of capital has been, and we expect will continue to be during the remainder of 2020 and for the foreseeable future, for the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties and for midstream investments. Excluding any possible significant acquisitions, we expect to fund the remainder of our 2020 capital expenditures primarily through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flows, performance incentives in connection with San Mateo, borrowings under ~~the Credit Agreement~~our reserves-based revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) (assuming availability under our borrowing base of $900.0 million) and borrowings under San Mateo I’s revolving credit facility (the “San Mateo Credit Facility”) (assuming availability under the accordion feature of such facility to up to $400.0 million). ~~In addition, in 2020, we expect to receive the remaining portion of the $50.0 million capital carry Five Point agreed to provide to us in conjunction with the formation of San Mateo II.~~ We continually evaluate other capital sources, including borrowings under additional credit arrangements, the sale or joint venture of midstream assets, oil and natural gas producing assets, leasehold interests or mineral interests and potential issuances of equity, debt or convertible securities, none of which may be available on satisfactory terms or at all. Our future success in growing proved reserves and production will be highly dependent on our ability to access outside sources of capital and to generate operating cash flows.

At June 30, 2020, we had cash totaling approximately $20.6 million and restricted cash totaling approximately $22.9 million, which was associated with San Mateo. By contractual agreement, the cash in the accounts held by our less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries is not to be commingled with our other cash and is to be used only to fund the capital expenditures and operations of these less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries.

At June 30, 2020, we had (i) $1.05 billion of outstanding 5.875% senior notes due September 2026 (the “Notes”), (ii) $385.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement, (iii) approximately $45.1 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement and (iv) $7.5 million outstanding under an unsecured U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loan. In February 2020, the lenders under ~~the~~our Credit Agreement completed their review of our proved oil and natural gas reserves at December 31, 2019, and, as a result, the borrowing base was affirmed at $900.0 million. We elected to increase the borrowing commitment from $500.0 million to $700.0 million, and the maximum facility amount remained $1.5 billion. ~~We also added two new banks to our lending group as part of this redetermination process.~~ This February 2020 redetermination constituted the regularly scheduled May 1 redetermination. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are limited to the lowest of the borrowing base, the maximum facility amount and the elected ~~commitment.~~commitment (subject to compliance with the covenant noted below). The Credit Agreement matures in October 2023. The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a debt to EBITDA ratio, which is defined as debt outstanding (net of up to $50.0 million of cash or cash equivalents), divided by a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation, of 4.00 or less. The Company believes that it was in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

At March 31, 2020, we had cash totaling approximately $27.1 million and restricted cash totaling approximately $29.7 million, which was associated with San Mateo. By contractual agreement, the cash in the accounts held by our less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries is not to be commingled with our other cash and is to be used only to fund the capital expenditures and operations of these less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries.

~~At March 31,~~July 28, 2020, we had (i) $1.05 billion of outstanding ~~5.875% senior notes due September 2026 (the “Notes”),~~Notes, (ii) ~~$315.0~~$404.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement, ~~and~~ (iii) approximately ~~$46.0~~$45.1 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the Credit ~~Agreement.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and July 28, 2020, San Mateo I had ~~$307.5~~$320.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the San Mateo Credit Facility and approximately $9.0 million in outstanding letters of credit issued pursuant to the San Mateo Credit Facility. The San Mateo Credit Facility includes an accordion feature, which provides for potential increases to up to $400.0 million, and matures in December 2023. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the lender commitments under the San Mateo Credit Facility were $375.0 ~~million.~~million (subject to San Mateo I’s compliance with the covenants noted below). The San Mateo Credit Facility is guaranteed by San Mateo I’s subsidiaries, secured by substantially all of San Mateo I’s assets, including real property, and is non-recourse with respect to Matador and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as well as San Mateo II and its subsidiaries. The San Mateo Credit Facility requires San Mateo I to maintain a debt to EBITDA ratio, which is defined as total consolidated funded indebtedness outstanding (as defined in the San Mateo Credit Facility) divided by a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation, of 5.00 or less, subject to certain exceptions. The San Mateo Credit Facility also requires San Mateo I to maintain an interest coverage ratio,

which is defined as a rolling four quarter EBITDA calculation divided by San Mateo I’s consolidated interest expense for such period, of 2.50 or more. The Company believes that San Mateo I was in compliance with the terms of the San Mateo Credit Facility at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

~~2020 Capital Expenditure Budget~~

During the first ~~quarter~~half of 2020, the oil and natural gas industry witnessed an abrupt and significant decline in oil prices from $63 per Bbl in early January to ~~just above $20~~as low as ($38) per Bbl in late ~~March.~~April, although oil prices began to improve in May and June. This sudden decline in oil prices was attributable to two primary factors: ~~(1)~~(i) the precipitous decline in global oil demand resulting from the worldwide spread of COVID-19 and ~~(2)~~(ii) a sudden, unexpected increase in global oil supply resulting from actions initiated by Saudi Arabia to increase its oil production to world markets following the failure of efforts by members of OPEC+ to agree on coordinated production cuts at their March 6, 2020 meetings in Vienna, Austria.

Primarily as a result of these unexpected events and the resulting declines in oil prices, ~~Matador has significantly~~we modified ~~its~~our 2020 operational plan. In March 2020, we significantly reduced our capital expenditure budget, including reducing our operated drilling program from six to three drilling rigs by the end of the second quarter of 2020. In addition, we made initial reductions to headcount, employee salaries and lease operating expenses and curtailed or shut in portions of our oil and natural gas production. While we had prepared to make further reductions to headcount, salaries and our capital expenditure budget, we have been able to avoid such reductions to date as a result of realizing greater-than-expected savings from the above changes to our 2020 operational plan, restructuring our hedge portfolio (as described below) and applying for and receiving an SBA loan through the Paycheck Protection Program. The general outlook for the oil and natural gas industry for the remainder of 2020 remains highly uncertain, and we can provide no assurances as to when the economic disruptions resulting from COVID-19 and the corresponding decline in oil demand may improve. Until such time, however, we anticipate that oil prices will remain well below the prices realized in 2019. These economic disruptions have also significantly reduced our ability to access the capital markets on reasonably similar terms as were available in prior periods.

As noted above, on April 13, 2020, we executed a promissory note evidencing an unsecured loan in the amount of approximately $7.5 million as part of the Paycheck Protection Program. The Paycheck Protection Program was established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and is administered by the SBA. The loan was issued through Iberiabank, which is a lender under the Credit Agreement, matures on the second anniversary of the funding date and bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.00% per annum. We used the proceeds of the loan for payroll, including salaries, payroll taxes and employee medical benefits, as permitted by the program. The receipt of the loan allowed us to avoid the planned further reductions to employee headcount and salaries discussed above. The loan is eligible for forgiveness for the portion of the loan proceeds used for payroll costs and other designated operating expenses, provided at least 60% of the loan’s proceeds are used for payroll costs.

During April 2020, we also restructured a portion of our then-existing 2020 WTI oil derivative financial instruments, providing additional revenue protection should oil prices decline again to depressed levels, such as those experienced late in the first quarter and early in the second quarter of 2020, for the remainder of 2020 or should further market disruptions occur. As a result of these modifications, we almost doubled our oil volumes hedged for the period from April through December 2020. These restructured derivative financial instruments included approximately 7.6 million Bbl of fixed-price oil swaps at a weighted average price of approximately $35 per Bbl and 2.3 million Bbl of oil collars with a weighted average floor price of approximately $48 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $66 per Bbl. We also had approximately 0.4 million Bbl in oil put options, which represent options to sell at a specified exercise price, at a weighted average price of approximately $48 per Bbl for the period from April through June 2020.

In addition, during the second quarter of 2020, we added approximately 2.0 million Bbl of oil swaps at a weighted average price of approximately $35 per Bbl and 2.4 million Bbl of oil costless collars with a weighted average floor price of approximately $35 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $46 per Bbl for 2021. We also added natural gas collars for November and December 2020 for approximately 3.2 million MMBtu and for the first quarter of 2021 for approximately 4.8 million MMBtu, each with a weighted average floor price of approximately $2.52 per MMBtu and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $3.71 per MMBtu.

We began 2020 operating six drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin, as we continued to focus on the exploration, delineation and development of our Delaware Basin acreage in Loving County, Texas and Lea and Eddy Counties, New Mexico. We had originally planned to operate these six drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin throughout ~~2020. As a result of the events noted above,~~2020; however, we released (i) one operated drilling rig from our Wolf asset area ~~in Loving County, Texas~~ late in the first quarter of 2020, ~~and we released~~(ii) a second operated drilling rig from the Greater Stebbins Area in late April ~~2020. We anticipate releasing one additional~~2020 and (iii) a third operated drilling rig ~~by the end of the second quarter of~~from our Rustler Breaks asset area in late June 2020. ~~Thereafter, we~~We expect to operate three drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin throughout the remainder of 2020. Two of these rigs are anticipated to operate in our Stateline asset area, ~~in Eddy County, New Mexico,~~ and the third rig is expected to operate primarily in the Rustler Breaks and Antelope Ridge asset areas.

Table of Contents

As a result of our plans to reduce our operated drilling program from six to three rigs by the end of the second quarter of 2020, on April 29, 2020, we decreased the range of our anticipated full-year 2020 capital expenditures for drilling, completing and equipping wells from $690.0 to $750.0 million to $440.0 to $500.0 million. The range of our anticipated full-year 2020 capital expenditures for midstream capital expenditures remained $85.0 to $105.0 million, which reflects our proportionate share of San Mateo’s estimated capital expenditures of $190.0 ~~million~~ to $235.0 million and also accounts for the ~~remaining~~ portions of the $50.0 million capital carry remaining as of January 1, 2020 that Five Point ~~agreed to provide~~provided us in conjunction with the formation of San Mateo II. Substantially all of these 2020 estimated capital expenditures will be allocated to (i) the further delineation and development of our leasehold position, (ii) the continued construction of midstream assets and (iii) our participation in certain non-operated well opportunities in the Delaware Basin, with the exception of amounts allocated to limited operations in our South Texas and Haynesville shale positions to maintain and extend leases and to participate in certain non-operated well opportunities.

To narrow any potential difference between our 2020 capital expenditures and operating cash flows, we may divest portions of our non-core assets, particularly in the Haynesville shale and in parts of our South Texas positions (as we did in 2019, converting $21.9 million of non-core assets to cash), as well as consider monetizing other assets, such as certain mineral, royalty and midstream interests, as value-creating opportunities arise. In addition, we intend to continue evaluating the opportunistic acquisition of acreage and mineral interests, principally in the Delaware Basin, during 2020. These monetizations, divestitures and expenditures are opportunity-specific, and purchase price multiples and per-acre prices can vary significantly based on the asset or prospect. As a result, it is difficult to estimate these 2020 monetizations, divestitures and capital expenditures with any degree of certainty; therefore, we have not provided estimated proceeds related to monetizations or divestitures or estimated capital expenditures related to acreage and mineral acquisitions for 2020.

Our 2020 capital expenditures may be adjusted as business conditions warrant and the amount, timing and allocation of such expenditures are largely discretionary and within our control. The aggregate amount of capital we will expend may fluctuate materially based on market conditions, the actual costs to drill, complete and place on production operated or non-operated wells, our drilling results, the actual costs and scope of our midstream activities, the ability of our joint venture partners to meet their capital obligations, other opportunities that may become available to us and our ability to obtain capital. When oil or natural gas prices decline, or costs increase significantly, we have the flexibility to defer a significant portion of our capital expenditures until later periods to conserve cash or to focus on projects that we believe have the highest expected returns and potential to generate near-term cash flows. We routinely monitor and adjust our capital expenditures in response to changes in prices, availability of financing, drilling, completion and acquisition costs, industry conditions, the timing of regulatory approvals, the availability of rigs, success or lack of success in our exploration and development activities, contractual obligations, drilling plans for properties we do not operate and other factors both within and outside our control.

Exploration and development activities are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause these activities to be less successful than we anticipate. A significant portion of our anticipated cash flows from operations for the remainder of 2020 is expected to come from producing wells and development activities on currently proved properties in the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin, the Eagle Ford shale in South Texas and the Haynesville shale in Northwest Louisiana. Our existing wells may not produce at the levels we have forecasted and our exploration and development activities in these areas may not be as successful as we anticipate. Additionally, our anticipated cash flows from operations are based upon current expectations of realized oil, natural gas and NGL prices for the remainder of 2020 and the hedges we currently have in place. As noted above, the oil and natural gas industry witnessed an abrupt and significant decline in oil prices

during the first quarter and early in the second quarter of ~~2020. As of April 29,~~ 2020 ~~WTI oil prices were below $20 per Bbl~~that improved during May and ~~were anticipated to remain below $30 per Bbl for the remainder of 2020.~~June. For further discussion of our expectations of such commodity prices, see “— General Outlook and Trends” below. We use commodity derivative financial instruments at times to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in oil, natural gas and NGL prices and to partially offset reductions in our cash flows from operations resulting from declines in commodity prices. See Note 7 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a summary of our open derivative financial instruments.

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased ~~$50.1~~$15.9 million to ~~$109.4~~$210.4 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 from ~~$59.2~~$194.5 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Excluding changes in operating assets and liabilities, net cash provided by operating activities ~~increased~~decreased to ~~$134.3~~$235.7 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 from ~~$117.7~~$255.5 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, primarily attributable to ~~higher oil and natural gas production, which was partially offset by~~significantly lower realized oil and natural gas prices for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Changes in our operating assets and liabilities between the two periods resulted in a net increase of approximately ~~$33.6~~$35.7 million in net cash provided by operating activities for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

Our operating cash flows are sensitive to a number of variables, including changes in our production and volatility of oil and natural gas prices between reporting periods. Regional and worldwide economic activity, the actions of OPEC+ and other large state-owned oil producers, weather, infrastructure capacity to reach markets and other variable factors significantly impact the prices of oil and natural gas. Furthermore, the continued effect of COVID-19 and the corresponding decline in oil demand will also significantly impact the prices we receive for our oil production. These factors are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. We use commodity derivative financial instruments at times to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in oil, natural gas and NGL prices.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased by ~~$33.3~~$64.1 million to ~~$248.2~~$458.8 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 from ~~$214.9~~$394.7 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. This increase in net cash used in investing activities iswas primarily due to an increase in midstream capital expenditures of approximately ~~$40.1~~$59.2 million, which was partially offset by a decrease of ~~$8.3~~$14.8 million in oil and natural gas properties capital expenditures and a reduction in proceeds from the sales of assets of $20.5 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Cash used for midstream capital expenditures for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to the expansion of the Black River Processing Plant and midstream facilities in the Greater Stebbins Area and the Stateline asset area. Cash used for oil and natural gas properties capital expenditures for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to our operated and non-operated drilling and completion activities in the Delaware Basin.

Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities increased by ~~$12.1~~$25.8 million to ~~$130.5~~$226.8 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 from ~~$118.4~~$201.0 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, our primary sources of cash from financing activities included borrowings under the Credit Agreement of ~~$60.0~~$130.0 million, borrowings under the San Mateo Credit Facility of ~~$19.5~~$32.0 million, net contributions related to the formation of San Mateo I and from non-controlling interest owners in less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries of $59.8 million and the SBA loan of $7.5 million discussed above. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had borrowings under our Credit Agreement of $165.0 million, borrowings under the San Mateo Credit Facility of $20.0 million and net contributions related to the formation of San Mateo I and from non-controlling interest owners in less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries of $53.2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we had borrowings under our Credit Agreement of $100.0 million, as well as net contributions related to the formation of San Mateo I and from non-controlling interest owners in less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries of $18.7$16.9 million.

See Note 4 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for a summary of our debt, including the Credit Agreement, the San Mateo Credit Facility and the Notes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depletion, depreciation and amortization, accretion of asset retirement obligations, property impairments, unrealized derivative gains and losses, certain other non-cash

Table of Contents

items and non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and net gain or loss on asset sales and ~~inventory~~ impairment. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss) or cash flows as determined by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies.

Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is necessary because it allows us to evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in calculating Adjusted EBITDA 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 certain assets were acquired.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as a primary indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components of understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure. Our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, decreased by $36.5 million to $107.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to $144.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease is primarily attributable to significantly lower realized oil and natural gas prices, partially offset by higher oil and natural gas production ~~which was partially offset by lower realized oil and natural gas prices~~ for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

From time-to-time, we enter into off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that can give rise to material off-balance sheet obligations. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the material off-balance sheet arrangements and transactions that we have entered into include (i) non-operated drilling commitments, (ii) firm transportation, gathering, processing and disposal commitments and (iii) contractual obligations for which the ultimate settlement amounts are not fixed and determinable, such as derivative contracts that are sensitive to future changes in commodity prices or interest rates, gathering, treating, transportation and disposal commitments on uncertain volumes of future throughput, open delivery commitments and indemnification obligations following certain divestitures. Other than the off-balance sheet arrangements described above, the Company has no transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s liquidity or availability of or requirements for capital resources. See “— Obligations and Commitments” below and Note 9 to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for more information regarding our off-balance sheet arrangements.

General Outlook and Trends

During the first quarter of 2020, the oil and natural gas industry witnessed an abrupt and significant decline in oil ~~prices.~~prices, which continued through April but began to improve in May and June. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, oil prices averaged ~~$45.78~~$28.00 per Bbl, ranging from a ~~high~~low of ~~$63.27~~($37.63) per Bbl in ~~early January~~mid-April to a ~~low~~high of ~~$20.09~~$40.46 per Bbl in late ~~March,~~June, based upon the NYMEX WTI oil futures contract price for the earliest delivery date. This sudden decline in oil prices was attributable to two primary factors: ~~(1)~~(i) the precipitous decline in global oil demand resulting from the worldwide spread of COVID-19 and ~~(2)~~(ii) a sudden, unexpected increase in global oil supply resulting

from actions initiated by Saudi Arabia to increase its oil production to world markets following the failure of efforts by members of OPEC+ to agree on coordinated production cuts at their March 6, 2020 meetings in Vienna, Austria.

As noted previously in this Quarterly Report, ~~Matador has~~we significantly modified ~~its~~our 2020 operational plan primarily as a result of these unexpected events and the resulting decline in oil prices. We began 2020 operating six drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin but ~~plan to reduce~~reduced our operated drilling program from six to three drilling rigs by the end of the second quarter of 2020. ~~Thereafter, we~~We expect to operate three drilling rigs in the Delaware Basin throughout the remainder of 2020, but we are prepared to further reduce our drilling activities ~~further~~ should conditions warrant. ~~At April 29, 2020, the~~The general outlook for the oil and natural gas industry for the remainder of 2020 remains highly uncertain, and we can provide no assurances as to when the economic disruptions resulting from COVID-19 and the corresponding decline in oil demand may ~~begin to~~ improve. Until such time, however, we anticipate that oil prices will remain well below the prices realized in 2019.

We realized a weighted average oil price of ~~$45.87~~$24.03 per Bbl ($~~48.81~~35.28 per Bbl including realized gains from oil derivatives) for our oil production for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$49.64~~$56.51 per Bbl ($~~50.72~~56.86 per Bbl including realized gains from oil derivatives) for our oil production for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. At ~~April 29,~~July 28, 2020, the NYMEX WTI oil futures contract for the earliest delivery date had ~~decreased significantly~~increased from the average price for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020 of $28.00 per Bbl, settling at ~~$15.06~~$41.04 per Bbl, which was ~~also~~ a ~~significant~~ decrease as compared to ~~$63.50~~$56.20 per Bbl at ~~April 29,~~July 26, 2019.

Natural gas prices were ~~significantly~~also lower in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, as compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2019. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, natural gas prices averaged ~~$1.87~~$1.75 per MMBtu, ranging from a high of ~~$2.20~~$2.13 per MMBtu in early ~~January~~May to a low of ~~$1.60~~$1.48 per MMBtu in late ~~March,~~June, based upon the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas futures contract price for the earliest delivery date. We realized a weighted average natural gas price of ~~$1.70~~$1.49 per Mcf (with no realized gains or losses from natural gas derivatives) for our natural gas production (including revenues attributable to NGLs) for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, as compared to ~~$2.85~~$1.64 per Mcf ~~($2.84 with~~(including negligible realized losses from natural gas derivatives) for our natural gas production (including revenues attributable to NGLs) for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. At ~~April 29,~~July 28, 2020, the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas futures contract price for the earliest delivery date had increased slightly from the end of the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, settling at ~~$1.87~~$1.80 per MMBtu, which was a decrease as compared to ~~$2.59~~$2.17 per MMBtu at ~~April 29,~~July 26, 2019.

The prices we receive for oil, natural gas and NGLs heavily influence our revenue, profitability, cash flow available for capital expenditures, access to capital and future rate of growth. Oil, natural gas and NGL prices are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in supply and demand. Historically, the markets for oil, natural gas and NGLs have been volatile, and these markets will likely continue to be volatile in the future. Declines in oil, natural gas or NGL prices not only reduce our revenues, but could also reduce the amount of oil, natural gas and NGLs we can produce economically and, as a result, could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and reserves and our ability to comply with the leverage ratio covenant under our Credit Agreement. We are uncertain if or when oil and natural gas prices may rise from their current levels, and, in fact, oil and natural gas prices may decrease in future periods. See “Risk Factors — Our Success Is Dependent on the Prices of Oil and Natural Gas. Low Oil and Natural Gas Prices and the Continued Volatility in

These Prices May Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition and Our Ability to Meet Our Capital Expenditure Requirements and Financial Obligations.” in the Annual Report.

From time to time, we use derivative financial instruments to mitigate our exposure to commodity price risk associated with oil, natural gas and NGL prices. Even so, decisions as to whether, at what price and what production volumes to hedge are difficult and depend on market conditions and our forecast of future production and oil, natural gas and NGL prices, and we may not always employ the optimal hedging strategy. This, in turn, may affect the liquidity that can be accessed through the borrowing base under the Credit Agreement and through the capital markets.

During April 2020, we restructured a portion of our then-existing 2020 WTI oil hedges, providing additional revenue protection should oil prices remain at currently depressed levels for the remainder of 2020 or should further market disruptions occur. As a result of these modifications, we almost doubled our oil volumes hedged for the period from April through December 2020. At April 29, 2020, we had approximately 10.3 million Bbl of oil hedged for the period from April through December 2020. These hedges include approximately 7.6 million Bbl of fixed-price oil swaps at a weighted average price of approximately $35 per Bbl and 2.3 million Bbl of oil collars with a weighted average floor price of approximately $48 per Bbl and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $66 per Bbl. We also have approximately 0.4 million Bbl in oil put options at a weighted average price of approximately $48 per Bbl for the period from April through June 2020. In addition, during April 2020, we added approximately 5.5 million Bbl of oil swaps at a weighted average price of approximately $35 per Bbl for 2021. We also added natural gas collars for November and December 2020 for approximately 3.2 million MMBtu and for the first quarter of 2021 for approximately 4.8 million MMBtu, each with a weighted average floor price of approximately $2.52 per MMBtu and a weighted average ceiling price of approximately $3.71 per MMBtu.

The prices we receive for our oil and natural gas production often reflect a discount to the relevant benchmark prices, such as the NYMEX WTI oil price or the NYMEX Henry Hub natural gas price. The difference between the benchmark price and the price we receive is called a differential. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, most of our oil production from the Delaware Basin was

sold based on prices established in Midland, Texas. For most of the first nine months of 2019, almost all of our natural gas production from the Delaware Basin was sold based on prices established at the Waha Hub in far West Texas, and portions of our natural gas are still sold based on Waha prices. At the end of September 2019, however, the Kinder Morgan Gulf Coast Express Pipeline Project (the “GCX Pipeline”) became operational. We have secured firm natural gas transportation and sales on the GCX Pipeline for an average of approximately 110,000 to 115,000 MMBtu per day at a natural gas price based upon Houston Ship Channel pricing.

After a lengthy period beginning in the second quarter of 2018 in which the Midland-Cushing (Oklahoma) oil price differential was negative, reaching as high as ($16.00) per Bbl in late September 2018, this oil price differential became positive late in the third quarter of 2019 and remained positive into the first quarter of 2020. With the abrupt decline in oil prices during the first quarter of 2020, however, the Midland-Cushing (Oklahoma) oil price differential experienced significant volatility in April 2020, reaching ($6.00) per Bbl before improving throughout the rest of the second quarter of 2020, especially for the month of June 2020. At ~~April 29,~~July 28, 2020, this oil price differential was approximately ~~$2.50~~$0.25 per ~~Bbl, despite being approximately ($6.00) per Bbl earlier in April.~~Bbl. It is possible that the differential could turn negative again at certain times during the remainder of 2020. At ~~April 29,~~July 28, 2020, we had derivative contracts in place to mitigate our exposure to this Midland-Cushing (Oklahoma) oil price differential on a portion of our anticipated oil production for the remainder of 2020 and throughout 2021 and 2022.

In addition, as a result of oil futures prices being significantly higher than spot prices for oil, the monthly “roll,” which typically has minimal impact on our realized oil pricing, is expected to be significant and negative during the second quarter of 2020. As a result, our weighted average oil price differential relative to the WTI benchmark price is anticipated to be negative and in the range of ($6.00) to ($9.00) per Bbl in the second quarter of 2020, inclusive of the monthly roll and transportation costs.

Our realized prices for a portion of our Delaware Basin natural gas production are exposed to the Waha-Henry Hub basis differential. This Waha basis differential has increased significantly over the past two years, including a few days in April 2019 when natural gas was being sold at the Waha hub for negative prices as high as ($7.00) to ($9.00) per MMBtu on a daily market basis. During the second half of 2019, the Waha basis differentials improved and natural gas prices at the Waha hub averaged approximately $1.00 per MMBtu for the final six months of the year. Despite improving during the second half of 2019, beginning in the fourth quarter, the Waha basis differential widened further at times, and natural gas prices at the Waha hub were slightly negative on certain days in late December 2019. In early 2020, the Waha basis differential continued to deteriorate, and natural gas prices at the Waha hub were negative on certain days in April 2020. However, the Waha basis differential narrowed ~~in late April 2020, with the futures market indicating Waha basis differentials between ($0.30) and ($0.60) per MMBtu throughout~~during the remainder of the second quarter of 2020. At July 28, 2020, ~~as of late April.~~the Waha basis differential was approximately ($0.50) per MMBtu.

Beginning in late September 2019, as the GCX Pipeline became operational, we began selling a majority of our produced Delaware Basin natural gas at Houston Ship Channel pricing, and we have realized an improvement in the natural gas pricing received despite higher transportation charges incurred to transport the natural gas to the Gulf Coast. Further, approximately ~~29%~~24% of our reported natural gas production in the first ~~quarter~~half of 2020 was attributable to the Haynesville and Eagle Ford shale plays, which are not exposed to Waha pricing. In addition, as a two-stream reporter, most of our natural gas volumes in the Delaware Basin are processed for NGLs, resulting in a further reduction in the reported natural gas volumes exposed to Waha pricing.

These widening oil and natural gas basis differentials are largely attributable to industry concerns regarding oil storage capacity and the near-term sufficiency of pipeline takeaway capacity for oil, natural gas and NGL production in the Delaware Basin. At April 29, 2020, we had not experienced oil storage concerns or material pipeline-related interruptions to our oil, natural gas or NGL production. In certain recent periods, shortages of NGL fractionation capacity were experienced by certain operators in the Delaware Basin. Although we did not encounter such fractionation capacity problems, we can provide no assurances that such problems will not arise. If we do experience any interruptions with takeaway capacity, oil storage or NGL fractionation, our oil and natural gas revenues, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

We anticipate that the volatility in these oil and natural gas price differentials could persist throughout 2020 or longer until additional oil and natural gas pipeline capacity from West Texas to the Texas Gulf Coast and other end markets is completed and as the balance between oil supply and demand is restored. We can provide no assurances as to how long these volatile differentials may persist, and as noted above, these price differentials could deteriorate in future periods. Should we experience future periods of negative pricing for natural gas as we ~~did during the second quarter of 2019,~~have in previous periods, we may temporarily shut in certain high gas-oil ratio wells and take other actions to mitigate the impact on our realized natural gas prices and results. In addition, we have no derivative contracts in place to mitigate our exposure to these natural gas price differentials during 2020.
