Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Nature of Operations

Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation (the “Company” or “Magnolia”) is an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, development, exploration, and production of oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquid (“NGL”) reserves. The Company’s oil and natural gas properties are located primarily in Karnes County and the Giddings area in South Texas where the Company targets the Eagle Ford Shale and Austin Chalk formations. Magnolia’s objective is to generate stock market value over the ~~long term~~long-term through consistent organic production growth, high full cycle operating margins, an efficient capital program with short economic paybacks, significant free cash flow after capital expenditures, and effective reinvestment of free cash flow.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in an Annual Report on Form 10-K have been omitted. The consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated and combined financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (the ~~“2019~~“2020 Form 10-K”). Except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes to the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated and combined financial statements included in the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all normal, recurring adjustments and accruals considered necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s interim financial results have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of expected results for the full year.

Certain reclassifications of prior period financial statements have been made to conform to current reporting practices. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances. The Company’s interests in oil and natural gas exploration and production ventures and partnerships are proportionately consolidated. The Company reflects a noncontrolling interest representing primarily the interest owned by the ~~Karnes County Contributors~~Magnolia LLC Unit Holders through their ownership of Magnolia LLC Units in the consolidated financial statements. The noncontrolling interest is presented as a component of equity. See Note 1 2 —12—Stockholders’ Equity for further discussion of the noncontrolling interest.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of its consolidated and combined financial statements contained in the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Form ~~10-K, with the exception of~~ ~~Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses~~ ~~and as noted below.~~10-K.

~~Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Expected Credit Losses~~

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” For public business entities, the new standard became effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. Magnolia adopted this standard on January 1, 2020. The standard changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, and requires entities to use a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in earlier recognition of allowance for losses. The Company’s receivables consist mainly of trade receivables from commodity sales and joint interest billings due from owners on properties the Company operates. The majority of these receivables have payment terms of 30 days or less. For receivables due from joint interest owners, the Company generally has the ability to withhold future revenue disbursements to recover non-payment of joint interest billings. From an evaluation of the Company’s existing credit portfolio, historical credit losses have been de minimis and are expected to remain so in the future assuming no substantial changes to the business or creditworthiness of Magnolia’s business partners. As expected, there was no material impact on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements or disclosures upon adoption of this ASU.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On August 26, 2020, the SEC adopted amendments to its rules in Regulation S-K to streamline the disclosures, which registrants are required to make about business, legal proceedings and risk factors and to add new requirements for disclosures about human capital resources. The amendments take a principles-based approach that gives registrants flexibility to tailor disclosures to their circumstances. The final rules become effective November 9, 2020 and will be incorporated in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2020.

In December 2019, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ~~ASU~~Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” which reduces the complexity of accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles and also simplifying areas such as separate entity financial statements and interim recognition of enactment of tax laws or rate changes. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and shall be applied on either a prospective basis, a retrospective basis for all periods presented, or a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings depending on which aspects of the new standard are applicable to an entity. The Company ~~is currently evaluating the effect of~~adopted this standard ~~but does not expect the~~on a prospective basis on January 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance todid not have aany material impact on ~~its~~the Company’s financial position, cash flows, or ~~result~~results of operations.

In May 2020, the SEC adopted final rules that amend the financial statement disclosure requirements for significant business acquisitions and dispositions. Among other changes, the final rules modify the significance tests and improve the disclosure requirements for acquired or to be acquired businesses and related pro forma financial information, the periods those financial statements must cover, and the form and content of the pro forma financial information. The final rules do not modify requirements for the acquisition and disposition of significant amounts of assets that do not constitute a business. The final rules are effective January 1, 2021, but earlier compliance is permitted. The Company plans to comply with the final rules during 2020, if applicable.

3. Revenue Recognition

Magnolia’s revenues include the sale of crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs. Oil, natural gas, and NGL sales are recognized as revenue when production is sold to a customer in fulfillment of performance obligations under the terms of agreed contracts. Performance obligations are primarily comprised of delivery of oil, natural gas, or NGLs at a delivery point, as negotiated and reflected within each contract. Each barrel of oil, million Btu of natural gas, gallon of NGLs, or other unit of measure is separately identifiable and represents a distinct performance obligation to which the transaction price is allocated.

The Company’s oil production is primarily sold under market-sensitive contracts that are typically priced at a differential to the New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”) price or at ~~purchaser posted~~purchaser-posted prices for the producing area. For oil contracts, the Company generally records sales based on the net amount received.

For natural gas contracts, the Company generally records wet gas sales (which consists of natural gas and NGLs based on end products after processing) at the wellhead or inlet of the gas processing plant (i.e., the point of control transfer) as revenues net of gathering, transportation and processing expenses if the processor is the customer and there is no redelivery of commodities to the Company at the tailgate of the plant. Conversely, the Company generally records residual natural gas and NGL sales at the tailgate of the plant (i.e., the point of control transfer) on a gross basis along with the associated gathering, transportation and processing expenses if the processor is a service provider and there is redelivery of one or several commodities to the Company at the tailgate of the plant. The facts and circumstances of an arrangement are considered and judgment is often required in making this determination. For processing contracts that require noncash consideration in exchange for processing services, the Company recognizes revenue and an equal gathering, transportation and processing expense for commodities transferred to the service provider.

Customers are invoiced once the Company’s performance obligations have been satisfied. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 days. There are no judgments that significantly affect the amount or timing of revenue from contracts with customers. Additionally, the Company’s product sales contracts do not give rise to material contract assets or contract liabilities.

The Company’s receivables consist mainly of trade receivables from commodity sales and joint interest billings due from owners on properties the Company operates. Receivables from contracts with customers totaled ~~$52.3~~$105.9 million as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~$100.4~~$72.0 million as of December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

The Company has concluded that disaggregating revenue by product type appropriately depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors and has reflected this disaggregation of revenue on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.

Performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time once control of the product has been transferred to the customer. The Company considers a variety of facts and circumstances in assessing the point of control transfer, including, but not limited to: whether

the purchaser can direct the use of the hydrocarbons, the transfer of significant risks and rewards, the Company’s right to payment, and the transfer of legal title.

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts as all contracts have either an original expected length of one year or less, or the entire future consideration is variable and allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation.

4. Acquisitions

2020 Acquisitions

On February 21, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of certain non-operated oil and natural gas assets located in Karnes and DeWitt Counties, Texas, for approximately $69.7 million in cash. ~~The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.~~

~~2019 Acquisitions~~

On May 31, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of certain oil and natural gas assets primarily located in Gonzales and Karnes Counties for approximately $36.3 million in cash and approximately 3.1 million shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

On February 5, 2019, Magnolia Operating formed a joint venture, Highlander Oil & Gas Holdings LLC (“Highlander”), to complete the acquisition of a 72% working interest in the Eocene-Tuscaloosa Zone, Ultra Deep Structure natural gas well located in St. Martin Parish, Louisiana and 31.1 million royalty trust units in the Gulf Coast Ultra Deep Royalty Trust from McMoRan Oil & Gas, LLC. Highlander paid cash consideration of $50.9 million for such interests. MGY Louisiana LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Magnolia Operating, holds approximately 85% of the units in Highlander. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

5. Derivative Instruments

Magnolia currently utilizes natural gas costless collars to reduce its exposure to price volatility for a portion of its natural gas production volumes. The Company’s policies do not permit the use of derivative instruments for speculative purposes. The Company’s natural gas costless collar derivative contracts are indexed to the Houston Ship Channel. Under the Company’s costless collar contracts, each collar has an established floor price and ceiling price. When the settlement price is below the floor price, the counterparty is required to make a payment to the Company and when the settlement price is above the ceiling price, the Company is required to make a payment to the counterparty. When the settlement price is between the floor and the ceiling, there is no payment required.

The Company has elected not to designate any of its derivative instruments as hedging instruments. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments are recorded immediately to earnings as “Loss on derivatives, net” on the Company’s consolidated ~~statement~~statements of operations. ~~For~~

The following table summarizes the effects of derivative instruments on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations during the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020, the~~2021:

See Note 6—F ~~air~~Fair Value ~~Measurement~~Measurement for the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s derivative contracts.

6. Fair Value Measurements

Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are carried at fair value and measured either on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. The Company’s fair value measurements are based either on actual market data or assumptions that other market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in an orderly transaction, using the valuation hierarchy prescribed by GAAP under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are as follows:

Level I - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments at the measurement date are used.

Level II - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level I that are observable for the investment, either directly or indirectly. Level II pricing inputs include quoted prices for similar investments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar investments in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the investment, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level III - Pricing inputs are unobservable and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs used in determination of fair value require significant judgment and estimation.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Debt Obligations

The carrying value and fair value of the financial instrument that is not carried at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance ~~sheet~~sheets at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 is as follows:


		September 30, 2020				December 31, 2019					June 30, 2021				December 31, 2020

The fair value of the 2026 Senior Notes at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 is based on unadjusted quoted prices in an active market, which ~~are~~is considered a Level 1 input in the fair value hierarchy.

The Company has other financial instruments consisting primarily of receivables, payables, and other current assets and liabilities that approximate fair value due to the nature of the ~~instrument~~instruments and their relatively short maturities. Non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value include assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations and asset retirement obligations.

Derivative Instruments

The fair ~~value~~values of the Company’s natural gas costless collar derivative instruments are measured using an industry-standard pricing model and are provided by a third party. The inputs used in the third-party pricing model include quoted forward prices for natural gas, the contracted volumes, volatility factors, and time to maturity, which are considered Level 2 inputs. The Company’s derivative instruments are recorded at fair value within “Other current liabilities” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of ~~September~~June 30, 2021. The Company’s derivative instruments were recorded at fair value within “Other current assets” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. These fair values are recorded by netting asset and liability positions with the same counterparty and are subject to contractual terms, which provide for net settlement. ~~There are 0 long-term derivative assets or liabilities as of September 30, 2020 and there were 0 outstanding derivative instruments as of December 31, 2019.~~

The following table presents the classification of the outstanding derivative instruments and the fair value hierarchy table for the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of the fair value measurement standard on a nonrecurring basis to its non-financial assets and liabilities, including oil and natural gas properties. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis but are subject to fair value adjustments when facts and circumstances arise that indicate a need for remeasurement.

During the first quarter of 2020, Magnolia recorded impairments of $1.9 billion related to proved and unproved properties as a result of a sharp decline in commodity prices. Proved property impairment of $1.4 billion is included in “Impairment of oil and natural gas properties” and unproved property impairment of $0.6 billion is included in “Exploration expense” on the Company’s consolidated statement of ~~operations.~~operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Proved and unproved properties that were impaired had aggregate fair values of $0.8 billion and $0.3 billion, respectively. The fair values of these oil and natural gas properties were measured using the income approach based on inputs that are not observable in the market, and therefore, represent Level 3 inputs. The Company calculated the estimated fair values of its oil and natural gas properties using a discounted future cash flow model. Significant inputs associated with the calculation of discounted future net cash flows include estimates of future commodity prices based on NYMEX strip pricing adjusted for price differentials, estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves and risk adjusted probable and possible reserves, estimates of future expected operating and capital costs, and a market participant based weighted average cost of capital of 10% for proved property impairments and 12% for unproved property impairments. NaN impairments were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

~~Deemed Dividend~~

In July 2019, the Company issued an aggregate of 9.2 million shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for all of its warrants. The difference in fair value between the Class A Common Stock issued and the warrants exchanged was recorded as a non-cash deemed dividend for the incremental value provided to the holders of the warrants. The fair value of the non-cash deemed dividend related to the warrant exchange was determined based on unadjusted quoted prices in an active market, which are considered a Level 1 input in the fair value hierarchy. Refer to ~~Note 1~~2—~~Stockholders’ Equity~~ ~~for additional information.~~

7. Intangible Assets

Non-Compete Agreement

On July 31, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), the Company and EnerVest, separate and apart from the Business Combination, entered into ~~a non-compete agreement (the “Non-Compete”),~~the Non-Compete, which ~~prohibits~~initially prohibited EnerVest and certain of its affiliates from competing with the Company in the Eagle Ford Shale (the “Market Area”) until July 31, ~~2022. Under~~2022 (“Prohibited Period End Date”). In January 2021, the Company amended the Non-Compete such that, rather than delivering an ~~affiliate~~aggregate of ~~EnerVest will have the right to receive~~ 4.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock ~~in 2 tranches~~upon the two and one-half year and the four year anniversaries of the Closing Date, the Company would deliver (i) the cash value of approximately 2.0 million shares inof Class A Common Stock and approximately 0.4 million shares of Class A Common Stock on the two and ~~one half~~one-half year anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) an aggregate of 1.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock on the four ~~years from July 31, 2018 provided EnerVest does not compete~~year anniversary of the Closing Date, in each case subject to the ~~Market Area.~~terms and conditions of the Non-Compete. On February 1, 2021, as consideration for compliance with the Non-Compete, the Company paid $17.2 million in cash and issued 0.4 million shares of Class A Common Stock.

~~The~~On June 30, 2021, the Company amended the Non-Compete Prohibited Period End Date to terminate on June 30, 2021 and paid $24.9 million in cash in lieu of delivering the remaining 1.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Second Non-Compete Amendment”).

On the Closing Date of the initial Business Combination, the Company recorded an estimated cost of $44.4 million for the Non-Compete as intangible assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. These intangible assets ~~have~~had a definite life and ~~are~~were subject to amortization utilizing the straight-line method over their economic life, ~~currently~~previously estimated to be two and ~~one half~~one-half to four years. The Second Non-Compete Amendment resulted in the Company accelerating the amortization of the remaining intangible assets. The Company includes the amortization in “Amortization of intangible assets” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Credit Facility

In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, ~~Magnolia Operating~~the RBL Facility was entered into ~~the RBL Facility~~by and among Magnolia Operating, as borrower, Magnolia Intermediate, as its holding company, the banks, financial institutions, and other lending institutions from time to time party thereto, as lenders, the other parties from time to time party thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, collateral agent, issuing bank, and swingline lender, providing for maximum commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion with a letter of credit facility with a $100.0 million sublimit. The borrowing base as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was $450.0 ~~million. On October 15, 2020, Magnolia Operating entered into a Borrowing Base Redetermination Agreement and Amendment No. 2 to the RBL Facility,~~million, which ~~provided for, among other things, the reaffirmation of the borrowing base at $450.0 million as part of the semi-annual scheduled redetermination.~~was reaffirmed on April 12, 2021. The RBL Facility is guaranteed by certain parent companies and subsidiaries of Magnolia LLC and is collateralized by certain of Magnolia Operating’s oil and natural gas properties and has a borrowing base subject to semi-annual redetermination.

Borrowings under the RBL Facility bear interest, at Magnolia Operating’s option, at a rate per annum equal to either the LIBOR rate or the alternative base rate plus the applicable margin. Additionally, Magnolia Operating is required to pay a commitment fee quarterly in arrears in respect of unused commitments under the RBL Facility. The applicable margin and the commitment fee rate are calculated based upon the utilization levels of the RBL Facility as a percentage of the borrowing base then in effect.

The RBL Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type, including compliance with a leverage ratio of less than 4.00 to 1.00 and, if the leverage ratio is in excess of 3.00 to 1.00, a current ratio of greater than 1.00 to 1.00. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the RBL Facility.

Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the RBL Facility were $11.7 million, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of five years and included in “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized interest expense related to the RBL Facility of $1.0 million ~~and $1.1 million~~ for each of the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, and ~~2019, respectively, and $3.2~~$2.0 million and ~~$3.4~~$2.2 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The unamortized portion of the deferred financing costs ~~are~~is included in “Deferred financing costs, net” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020.~~

The Company did 0t have any outstanding borrowings under its RBL Facility as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

2026 Senior Notes

On July 31, 2018, the Issuers issued and sold $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2026 Senior Notes in a private placement under Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of ~~1933.~~1933, as amended. The 2026 Senior Notes were issued under the Indenture, dated as of July 31, 2018 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Issuers and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee. The 2026 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company, Magnolia Operating, and Magnolia Intermediate and may be guaranteed by certain future subsidiaries of the Company. The 2026 Senior Notes will mature on August 1, 2026 and bear interest at the rate of 6.0% per annum.

~~At any time prior to August 1,~~On April 5, 2021, the ~~Issuers may,~~terms of the Indenture were amended to modify, among other things, the criteria used by the Company to make Restricted Payments (as defined in the Indenture). The amendment to the Indenture was accounted for as a debt modification. Costs incurred with third parties directly related to the modification were expensed as incurred. The Company incurred approximately $1.1 million of transaction fees related to the modification which were expensed and are reflected in “Interest expense, net” on ~~any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part~~the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company also paid $5.0 million in fees to holders of the 2026 Senior Notes, ~~at a redemption price equal to 100% of~~which are reflected as deferred financing costs reducing “Long-term debt, net” on the ~~principal amount~~Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized using the new effective interest rate applied prospectively over the remaining term of the 2026 Senior Notes ~~redeemed, plus a “make whole” premium on accrued~~ and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption. After August 1, 2021, the Issuers may redeem all or a part of the 2026 Senior Notes based on principal plus a set premium, as set forthare also included in “Interest expense, net” in the ~~Indenture, including any accrued and unpaid interest.~~Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The Company incurred $11.8 million of deferred financing costs related to the issuance of the 2026 Senior Notes, and an additional $5.0 million related to the amendment to the Indenture governing the 2026 Senior Notes, which were capitalized. These costs are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the 2026 Senior Notes and are included in “Interest expense, net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The unamortized portion of the deferred financing costs is included as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2026 Senior Notes, which ~~have~~has been recorded as “Long-term debt, net” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020.~~2021. The Company recognized interest expense related to the 2026 Senior Notes of $7.7 million and $6.3 million for ~~each of~~ the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and ~~2019, and $19.0~~$14.0 million and ~~$18.9~~$12.6 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

At any time prior to August 1, 2022, the Issuers may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the 2026 Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Senior Notes redeemed, plus a “make whole” premium on accrued and ~~2019, respectively.~~unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption. After August 1, 2022, the Issuers may redeem all or a

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

~~The~~From time to time, the Company is or may become involved in ~~disputes or legal actions~~litigation in the ordinary course of business. ~~For example, certain~~

Certain of the ~~Karnes County Contributors~~Magnolia LLC Unit Holders and the Company have been named as defendants in a lawsuit where the plaintiffs claim to be entitled to a minority working interest in certain Karnes County Assets. The litigation is in the pre-trial stage. The exposure related to this litigation is currently not reasonably estimable. The ~~Karnes County Contributors~~Magnolia LLC Unit Holders retained all such liability in connection with the Business Combination.

A mineral owner in a Magnolia operated well in Karnes County, Texas filed a complaint with the Texas Railroad Commission (the “Commission”) challenging the validity of the permit to drill such well by questioning the long-standing process by which the Commission granted the permit. After the Commission affirmed the granting of the permit, and after judicial review of the Commission’s order by the 53rd Judicial District Court Travis County, Texas (the “District Court”), the District Court reversed and remanded the Commission’s order. The Commission and Magnolia have appealed the District Court’s judgment to the Third Court of Appeals in Austin, Texas, and the appeal is in the preliminary stage.

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company does not believe the outcome of any such disputes or legal actions will have a material effect on its consolidated statements of operations, balance sheet, or cash flows. NaN amounts were accrued with respect to outstanding litigation at ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 or ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

Environmental Matters

The Company, as an owner or lessee and operator of oil and natural gas properties, is subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to discharge of materials into, and the protection of, the environment. These laws and regulations may, among other things, impose liability on ~~the~~a lessee under an oil and natural gas lease for the cost of pollution clean-up resulting from operations and subject the lessee to liability for pollution damages. In some instances, the Company may be directed to suspend or cease operations in ~~the~~an affected area. The Company maintains insurance coverage, which it believes is customary in the industry, although the Company is not fully insured against all environmental risks.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s revenue, profitability, and future growth are substantially dependent upon the prevailing and future prices for oil and natural gas, which depend on numerous factors beyond the Company’s control such as overall oil and natural gas production and inventories in relevant markets, economic conditions, the global political environment, regulatory developments, and competition from other energy sources. Oil and natural gas prices historically have been volatile and may be subject to significant fluctuations in the future.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic and related economic repercussions have created significant volatility, uncertainty, and turmoil in the oil and natural gas industry. Oil demand ~~has~~ significantly deteriorated and has remained volatile as a result of the virus outbreak and corresponding preventative measures taken around the world to mitigate the spread of the virus. The implications of the decrease in global demand for, ~~oil,~~ coupled with the general oversupply of, oil may have further negative effects on the Company’s ~~business, such as production curtailment and reductions to its operating plans as a result of decreased prices and reduced storage capacity.~~

business. Demand and pricing may again decline if there is a resurgence of the outbreak across the U.S. and other locations across the world ~~and the~~or as a result of any related social distancing guidelines, travel restrictions, and stay-at-home orders. The extent of any further impact of the ~~additional impact~~pandemic on the Company’s industry and ~~its~~ business cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.

11. Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax provision consists of the following components:

Income tax expense (benefit)	$	2,398	$	(3,176)	$	2,797	$	(79,001)

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, margin tax in the state of Texas, and Louisiana corporate income tax. The Company estimates its annual effective tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 2.0% and 9.8%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 1.3% and 3.9%, respectively. As a result of impairments in the first quarter of 2020, the Company established full valuation allowances on the federal and state deferred tax assets, which resulted in additional differences between the effective tax rate and the statutory rate as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020. The primary differences between the annual effective tax rate and the statutory rate of 21.0% are income attributable to noncontrolling interest, state taxes, and valuation allowances.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company did 0t have an accrued liability for uncertain tax positions and does not anticipate recognition of any significant liabilities for uncertain tax positions during the next 12 months. For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, 0 amounts were incurred for income tax uncertainties or interest and penalties. Currently, the Company is not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or a material deviation from its position. The Company’s tax years since its formation remain subject to possible income tax examinations by its major taxing authorities for all periods.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, EnerVest redeemed 15.3 million Magnolia LLC Units (and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock) for an equivalent number of shares of Class A Common Stock and subsequently sold these shares to the public. Magnolia did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock by EnerVest. The redemption and exchange of these Magnolia LLC Units created additional tax basis in Magnolia LLC. There was no net tax impact as the Company recorded a full valuation allowance.

On March 27, 2020, the United States enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”).~~The CARES Act includes several significant business tax provisions that, among other things, allow businesses to carry back~~ Applying the net operating ~~losses (“NOL”) arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to the five prior tax years. Applying the NOL~~loss carryback provision resulted in an income tax benefit of $1.2 million ~~during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The difference~~ in the ~~U.S. federal statutory tax rate~~first quarter of ~~34% in 2017 compared to 21% in 2018 and thereafter resulted in a discrete benefit to the tax provision of approximately $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30,~~ 2020.

The income tax expense or benefit recorded for the period is based on applying an estimated annual effective income tax rate to the net income or loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the Company’s expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in various jurisdictions, the effect of noncontrolling interest, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the income tax expense or benefit may change as new events occur, more experience is obtained, additional information becomes known, or as the tax environment changes. The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was 4.0% and 14.9%, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily impacted by the reversal of its federal and state deferred tax liabilities and the federal and state deferred tax assets generated from losses related to non-cash impairments of the carrying value of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties, offset by the recognition of valuation allowances. The primary differences between the annual effective tax rate and the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0% are income attributable to noncontrolling interest, the recognition of a valuation allowance on federal and state deferred tax assets, and state taxes.

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company moved from a net deferred tax liability position to an estimated net deferred tax asset position, resulting primarily from oil and natural gas impairments. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company’s net deferred tax asset was ~~$203.3~~$210.4 million. Management assessed whether it is more-likely-than-not that it will generate sufficient taxable income to realize its deferred income tax assets, including the investment in partnership and net operating loss carryforwards. In making this determination, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence and made certain assumptions. The Company considered, among other things, the overall business environment, its historical earnings and losses, current industry trends, and its outlook for future years. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company assessed the realizability of the deferred tax assets and recorded a full valuation allowance of ~~$203.3~~$210.4 million.

~~The Company’s income tax provision consists of the following components:~~

12. Stockholders’ Equity

Class A Common Stock

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, there were ~~168.7~~184.8 million shares of Class A Common Stock issued and ~~165.6~~175.3 million shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding. The holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock vote together as a single class on all matters and are entitled 1 vote for each share held. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, which results in the holders of more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding common shares being able to elect all of the directors, subject to

voting obligations under the Stockholder Agreement. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of ~~Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation,~~the Company, the holders of the Class A Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock. The holders of the Class A Common Stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no sinking fund provisions applicable to such shares.

Class B Common Stock

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, there were ~~85.8~~60.5 million shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding. Holders of Class B Common Stock vote together as a single class with holders of Class A Common Stock on all matters properly submitted to a vote of the stockholders. The holders of Class B Common Stock generally have the right to exchange all or a portion of their shares of Class B Common Stock, together with an equal number of Magnolia LLC Units, for the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock or, at Magnolia LLC’s option, an equivalent amount of cash. Upon the future redemption or exchange of Magnolia LLC Units held by any holder of Class B Common Stock, a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder of Class B Common Stock will be canceled. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of Magnolia LLC, the holders of the Class B Common Stock, through their ownership of Magnolia LLC Units, are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of units of Magnolia LLC, if any, having preference over the common units. The holders of the Class B Common Stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no sinking fund provisions applicable to such shares.

~~Warrants~~

On June 7, 2019, the Company commenced an exchange offer (the “Offer”) and consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”), pursuant to which the Company (1) offered to holders of its warrants the opportunity to receive 0.29 shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for each warrant validly tendered and (2) solicited the consent from the holders of its warrants to approve an amendment to the Company’s existing warrant agreement, by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to amend the agreement to provide the Company with the right to require any holder of the Company’s warrants to exchange their warrants for Class A Common Stock at an exchange ratio of 0.261 shares of Class A Common Stock for each whole warrant (the “Warrant Amendment”). Pursuant to the Offer, certain of the Company’s warrantholders, including directors and executive officers, agreed to tender their warrants and provide the corresponding consent to the Warrants Amendment in the Consent Solicitation by entering into a tender and support agreement with the Company on June 7, 2019.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation expired on July 5, 2019. In connection with the closing of the Offer on July 10, 2019 and the subsequent exercise of the Company’s right to exchange all remaining warrants on July 25, 2019, the Company issued an aggregate of 9.2 million shares of Class A Common Stock in exchange for all of its 31.7 million warrants outstanding, which consisted of 21.7 million public warrants and 10.0 million private placement warrants.

As the fair value of the warrants exchanged in the Offer was less than the fair value of the Class A Common Stock issued, the Company recorded a non-cash deemed dividend of $2.8 million for the incremental value provided to the warrant holders. The fair value of warrants and the Class A Common Stock was determined using unadjusted quoted prices in an active market, a Level 1 fair value input. The Company capitalized $2.2 million of expenses related to the Offer within “Additional paid-in capital” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Share Repurchase Program

Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interest in Magnolia’s consolidated subsidiaries ~~include~~includes amounts attributable to Magnolia LLC Units that were issued to the ~~Karnes County Contributors~~Magnolia LLC Unit Holders in connection with the Business Combination. The noncontrolling interest percentage is affected by various equity transactions such as issuances and repurchases of Class A Common Stock, the exchange of Class B Common Stock (and corresponding Magnolia LLC Units) for Class A Common Stock, or the cancellation of Class B Common Stock (and corresponding Magnolia LLC Units).

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 Magnolia LLC repurchased and subsequently canceled 10.0 million Magnolia LLC Units with an equal number of shares of corresponding Class B Common Stock for $122.5 million of cash consideration (the “Class B Common Stock Repurchases”). During the same period, EnerVest redeemed 15.3 million Magnolia LLC Units (and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock) for an equivalent number of shares of Class A Common Stock and subsequently sold these shares to the public. Magnolia did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Class A Common Stock by EnerVest. Magnolia funded the Class B Common Stock Repurchases with cash on hand. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, Magnolia owned approximately ~~66%~~74.3% of the interest in Magnolia LLC and the noncontrolling interest was ~~34%~~25.7%.

In the first quarter of 2019, Magnolia Operating formed Highlander Oil & Gas Holdings LLC (“Highlander”) as a joint venture ~~where~~whereby MGY Louisiana LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Magnolia Operating, holds approximately ~~85%~~84.7% of the units inof Highlander, with the remaining ~~15%~~15.3% attributable to noncontrolling interest.

13. Stock Based Compensation

On October 8, 2018, the Company’s board of directors adopted the “Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation Long Term Incentive Plan” (the “Plan”), effective as of July 17, 2018. A total of ~~11.8~~16.8 million shares of Class A Common Stock have been authorized for issuance under the ~~Plan.~~Plan as of June 30, 2021. The Company grants stock based compensation awards in the form of restricted stock units (“~~RSUs”~~RSU”) ~~and~~, performance stock units (“~~PSUs”~~PSU”), and performance restricted stock units (“PRSU”) to eligible employees and directors to enhance the Company and its affiliates’ ability to attract, retain, and motivate persons who make important contributions to the Company and its affiliates by providing these individuals with equity ownership opportunities. Shares issued as a result of awards granted under the Plan are generally new shares of Class A Common Stock.

Stock based compensation expense is recognized net of forfeitures within “General and administrative expenses” and “Lease operating expenses” on the consolidated statements of operations and was ~~$2.9~~$3.5 million and ~~$2.8~~$3.1 million for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively, and ~~$8.9~~$6.2 million and ~~$8.4~~$5.9 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~ 2020,

respectively. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures of awards granted under the Plan as they occur in determining compensation expense.

Restricted Stock Units

The Company grants service-based RSU awards to employees and non-employee directors, which generally vest ratably over a three-year service period, in the case of awards to employees, and vest in full after one year, in the case of awards to directors. RSUs represent the right to receive shares of Class A Common Stock at the end of the vesting period equal to the number of RSUs that vest. RSUs are subject to restrictions on transfer and are generally subject to a risk of forfeiture if the award recipient ceases to be an employee or director of the Company ~~for any reason~~ prior to vesting of the award. Compensation expense for the service-based RSU awards is based upon the grant date market value of the award and such costs are recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award, as if the award was, in-substance, multiple awards. Unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSUs as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$10.5~~$9.6 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of ~~1.7~~2.0 years.

~~The table below summarizes RSU activity for the three~~Performance Stock Units and ~~nine months ended September 30, 2020:~~

Performance Restricted Stock Units

~~During~~The Company grants PRSUs to certain employees. Each PRSU represents the ~~nine months ended September~~contingent right to receive 1 share of Class A Common Stock once the PRSU is both vested and earned. PRSUs generally vest either ratably over a three-year service period or at the end of a three-year service period, in each case, subject to the recipient’s continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date. Each PRSU is earned based on whether Magnolia’s stock price achieves a target average stock price for any 20 consecutive trading days during the five-year performance period. If PRSUs are not earned by the end of the five-year performance period (“Performance Condition”), the PRSUs will be forfeited and no shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued, even if the vesting conditions have been met. Compensation expense for the PRSU awards is based upon grant date fair market value of the award, calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation, as presented below, and such costs are recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award, as if the award was, in-substance, multiple awards, as applicable. Unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested PRSUs as of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021 was $8.3 million, which the Company ~~granted~~expects to recognize over a weighted average period of 2.8 years.

The Company grants PSUs to certain employees. Each PSU, to the extent earned, represents the contingent right to receive 1 share of Class A Common Stock and the awardee may earn between 0 and 150% of the target number of PSUs granted based on the total shareholder return (“TSR”) of the Class A Common Stock relative to the TSR achieved by a specific industry peer group over a three-year performance period, the last day of which is also the vesting date. In addition to the TSR conditions, vesting of the PSUs is subject to the awardee’s continued employment through the date of settlement of the PSUs, which will occur within 60 days following the end of the performance period. Unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested PSUs as of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$5.1~~$1.6 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of ~~1.6~~1.1 years.

The grant date fair values of the PRSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the PSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2020, were $9.5 million and $2.5 million, ~~and $3.7 million during~~respectively. Since the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, calculated~~Performance Condition was met on March 17, 2021, the fair value of the PRSUs granted after this date was based upon the grant date market value of the award. The fair values of the awards granted prior to March 17, 2021 were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation. The following table summarizes the Monte Carlo simulation assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of ~~these PSUs.~~the PRSUs in 2021 and the PSUs in 2020.

Overview

Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation (the “Company” or “Magnolia”) is an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, development, exploration, and production of oil, natural gas, and ~~natural gas liquid (“NGL”)~~NGL reserves that operates in one reportable segment located in the United States. The ~~Company's~~Company’s oil and natural gas properties are located primarily in Karnes County and the Giddings area in South Texas, where the Company primarily targets the Eagle Ford Shale and the Austin Chalk formations.

Magnolia’s objective is to generate stock market value over the ~~long term~~long-term through consistent organic production growth, high full cycle operating margins, an efficient capital program with short economic paybacks, significant free cash flow after capital expenditures, and effective reinvestment of free cash flow. Magnolia’s business model prioritizes free cash flow, financial stability, and prudent capital allocation, and is designed to withstand challenging environments such as the one the Company is currently experiencing.

COVID-19 Pandemic and Market Conditions Update

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. Governments have tried to slow the spread of the virus by imposing social distancing guidelines, travel restrictions, and stay-at-home orders, which have caused a significant decrease in activity in the global economy and the demand for oil and natural gas. The implications of the decrease in global demand for, ~~oil,~~ coupled with the general oversupply of, oil may have further negative effects on the Company’s ~~business, such as production curtailment and reductions to its operating plans as a result of decreased prices and reduced storage capacity.~~business. Demand and pricing may again decline if there is a resurgence of the outbreak across the U.S. and other locations across the world ~~and~~or as a result of the related social distancing guidelines, travel restrictions, and stay-at-home orders. The extent of any further impact of the ~~additional impact~~pandemic on ~~the~~Magnolia’s industry and ~~Magnolia’s~~ business cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.

Magnolia’s business, like many oil and natural gas producers, has been, and is expected to continue to be, negatively affected by the crisis described above, which is ongoing and evolving. Magnolia’s revenues have significantly declined as a result of the sharp decline in commodity prices. The prices ultimately realized for oil, natural gas, and NGLs are based on a number of variables, including prevailing index prices attributable to the Company’s production and certain differentials to those index prices. Magnolia is unable to reasonably predict when, or to what extent, commodity prices and the overall markets and global economy will stabilize, and the pace of any subsequent recovery for the oil and gas industry. Further, the ultimate impact that these events will have on Magnolia’s business, liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations is highly uncertain and dependent on numerous evolving factors that cannot be predicted, including the duration of the pandemic.

Magnolia has taken steps and continues to actively work to mitigate the evolving challenges and growing impact of both the COVID-19 pandemic and the industry downturn on its operations, financial condition, and people. Magnolia’s business model prioritizes free cash flow, financial stability, and prudent capital allocation, and is designed to withstand challenging environments. The Company’s ongoing plan is to spend within cash flow on drilling and completing wells while maintaining low leverage. During the majority of the second quarter of 2021, Magnolia ~~did not bring any~~ operated ~~wells online during the third quarter and continued to operate~~ one rig in the Giddings area. The Company added a second rig at the end of the second quarter which is currently drilling wells in the Giddings area. The Company is well positioned to reduce or increase operations given the significant flexibility within its capital program, as its operated drilling rig is on a short-term contract and the Company has no long-term service obligations. Moreover, Magnolia does not have any contractual drilling obligations and nearly all of the Company’s acreage is held by production. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and industry downturn, Magnolia has initiated a corporate-wide cost reduction program to help decrease costs throughout every aspect of the Company. The Company has made reductions in general and administrative expense by reducing corporate salaries, renegotiating the fee under the Services Agreement, and working with many of its other vendors and suppliers to reduce the cost of their services. Magnolia believes these measures, taken together with its significant liquidity and lack of near term debt maturities, will provide additional flexibility in navigating the current volatile environment; however, given the tremendous uncertainty and turmoil, there is no certainty that the measures Magnolia takes will be sufficient.

~~As a producer of oil and natural gas, Magnolia is recognized as an essential business and has continued to operate while taking steps~~In order to protect the health and safety of its ~~workers.~~workers, Magnolia and its contractors have implemented protocols to reduce the risk of an outbreak within ~~its~~the Company’s operations, and these protocols have not reduced production or efficiency in a significant manner. The Company implemented remote working procedures for a significant portion of its workforce for health and safety reasons and/or to comply with applicable national, state, and/or local government requirements. As a result, the Company relied on such persons having sufficient access to its information technology systems, including through telecommunication hardware, software, and networks. Magnolia's board of directors is continuing to closely monitor the unfolding COVID-19 ~~pandemic very closely as well as the effect of working remotely on internal controls over financial reporting and information technology security.~~pandemic. Magnolia has been able to maintain a consistent level of effectiveness, ~~through these arrangements,~~ including maintaining day-to-day operations, financial reporting systems, and internal control over financial reporting. ~~As of October 1, 2020, the substantial majority of Magnolia employees have returned to the office.~~

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, Magnolia held an interest in approximately ~~1,823~~1,949 gross ~~(1,189~~(1,237 net) wells, with total production of ~~62.2~~64.9 thousand and 63.6 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (“Mboe/d”) for the ~~nine~~three and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020. In~~2021, respectively. The Company primarily operated one rig in the ~~third quarter of 2020, Magnolia operated a one-rig program~~Giddings area for the ~~Giddings Assets.~~first six months of 2021 and added a second rig at the end of the second quarter.

Magnolia recognized a net ~~loss~~income attributable to Class A Common Stock of ~~$1.2 billion,~~$84.4 million and $147.7 million, or ~~$7.41~~$0.48 and $0.85 per diluted common share, for the ~~nine~~three and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020.~~2021, respectively. Magnolia recognized a net ~~loss~~income of ~~$1.9 billion,~~$116.2 million and $207.7 million, which includes a noncontrolling interest of ~~$0.7 billion~~$31.7 million and $60.0 million related to the Magnolia LLC Units (and corresponding Class B Common Stock) held by certain affiliates of EnerVest for the ~~nine~~three and six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2020. As a result of the sharp decline in commodity prices during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, Magnolia recorded impairments of $1.9 billion related to proved and unproved properties. Proved property impairment of $1.4 billion is included in “Impairment of oil and natural gas properties” and unproved property impairment of $0.6 billion is included in “Exploration expense” on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.2021, respectively.

~~On August 5, 2019, the~~The Company’s board of directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to 1020.0 million ~~shares of Class A Common Stock.~~shares.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had repurchased ~~3.1~~9.5 million shares under the plan at an aggregate cost of ~~$23.2~~$83.3 million.

~~On August 1, 2020,~~During the ~~Company provided written notice to EVOC~~six months ended June 30, 2021 Magnolia LLC repurchased and subsequently canceled 10.0 million Magnolia LLC Units with an equal number of ~~its intent to terminate~~shares of corresponding Class B Common Stock for $122.5 million of cash consideration (the “Class B Common Stock Repurchases”). During the ~~Services Agreement.

Magnolia funded the Class B Common Stock Repurchases with cash on hand. As of June 30, 2021, Magnolia owned approximately 74.3% of the interest in Magnolia LLC and the noncontrolling interest was 25.7%.

In the third quarter of 2020, the Company entered into costless collars for 4.6 million MMBtu and 12.2 million MMBtu of its natural gas production in the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively, which reduce the Company’s exposure to natural gas price volatility for a portion of its expected natural gas production volumes. The Company has elected not to designate any of its derivative instruments as hedging instruments. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the Company's derivative instruments are recorded immediately to earnings as “Loss on derivative instruments, net” on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized $2.2 million unrealized loss related to its derivative instruments.

Results of Operations

Factors Affecting the Comparability of the Historical Financial Results

Magnolia’s historical financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented may not be comparable, either from period to period or going forward, as a result of the following factors:

•During the ~~first~~second quarter of ~~2020,~~2021, the Company amended the term of the Services Agreement to end on June 30, 2021. As part of the termination and transition of the Services Agreement, the Company incurred ~~impairments~~$11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included in “General and administrative expenses” on the Company’s consolidated statements of ~~$1.9 billion related to proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties as a result of the sharp decline in commodity prices;~~operations.

•~~On February 21, 2020,~~During the second quarter of 2021, the Company ~~completed~~amended the ~~acquisition~~Non-Compete (the “Second Non-Compete Amendment”), which modified the term of ~~certain non-operated oil and natural gas~~the Non-Compete to end on June 30, 2021, resulting in the Company accelerating the amortization of the intangible assets ~~located in Karnes and DeWitt Counties, Texas, for~~by approximately ~~$69.7 million in cash;~~$5.9 million.

Lease operating expenses are costs incurred in the operation of producing properties, including expenses for utilities, direct labor, water disposal, workover rigs, workover expenses, materials, and supplies. Lease operating expenses for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 were $3.7 million, or $0.58 per boe, higher compared to the corresponding ~~2019~~2020 period, ~~were $5.5 million lower primarily~~ due to ~~a reduction of operating expenses associated with bringing fewer new wells online resulting~~an increase in ~~lower production.~~

costs including workover activities and additional non-operated activities.

Gathering, transportation and processing costs are costs incurred to deliver oil, natural gas, and NGLs to the market. These expenses can vary based on the volume of oil, natural gas, and NGLs produced as well as the cost of commodity processing. The gathering, transportation and processing costs for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 were ~~$3.5~~$2.2 million, or ~~$0.25~~$0.36 per boe, ~~lower~~higher than the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020, primarily due to ~~lower~~increased natural gas production and higher prices.

Taxes other than income include production and ad valorem taxes. These taxes are based on rates primarily established by state and local taxing authorities. Production taxes are based on the market value of production. Ad valorem taxes are based on the fair market value of the mineral interests or business assets. Taxes other than income ~~were $6.0 million, or $0.56 per boe, lower~~ for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 were $8.3 million, or $1.39 per boe, higher compared to the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020, primarily due to ~~a decrease~~an increase in ~~revenues following a decline in commodity prices.~~oil, natural gas, and NGL revenues.

Exploration expenses are geological and geophysical costs that include unproved property impairments, seismic surveying costs, costs of expired or abandoned leases, and delay rentals. ~~The exploration costs~~Exploration expenses for the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 were ~~$3.2 million, or $0.46 per boe,~~ lower than the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019 primarily~~2020 by $6.4 million, or $1.10 per boe, due to lower ~~seismic surveying costs.~~leasehold abandonment expenses related to the Company’s unproved natural gas properties.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization (“DD&A”) during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 was ~~$99.2~~$7.5 million, or ~~$12.99~~$1.38 per boe, lower than the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020, primarily as a result of shifting activity from the Karnes area to the Giddings area, which has a lower ~~asset property balances associated with proved property impairments recorded in~~DD&A rate.

Amortization of intangible assets during the ~~first quarter~~three months ended June 30, 2021 was $3.6 million, or $0.60 per boe, higher than the three months ended June 30, 2020, driven by the accelerated amortization of ~~2020.~~the intangible assets as a result of the termination of the Non-Compete.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses during the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 were ~~$0.7~~$9.0 million, ~~lower~~or $1.50 per boe, higher than the three months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019~~2020, primarily driven by ~~renegotiating~~costs associated with the ~~fee under~~termination of the Services Agreement ~~as well as other corporate-wide cost cutting initiatives.~~and increased corporate payroll expenses related to increased employee headcount.

Interest expense, net, during the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $1.5 million higher than the three months ended June 30, 2020, driven by third-party costs associated with the debt modification pursuant to the amendment of the Indenture in the second quarter of 2021.

Loss on derivatives, net, was ~~a $2.2~~$2.0 million ~~unrealized loss~~ related to the Company’s natural gas costless collar entered into during the third quarter of 2020. There was no derivative activity in the corresponding ~~2019~~2020 period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Magnolia’s primary source of liquidity and capital has been its cash flows from operations. The Company’s primary uses of cash have been for acquisitions of oil and natural gas properties and related assets, development of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties, share repurchases, and general working capital needs.

The Company may also utilize borrowings under other various financing sources available to ~~Magnolia,~~it, including its RBL Facility and the issuance of equity or debt securities through public offerings or private placements, to fund Magnolia’s acquisitions and long-term liquidity needs. Magnolia’s ability to complete future offerings of equity or debt securities and the timing of these offerings will depend upon various factors, including prevailing market conditions and the Company’s financial condition.

The Company anticipates its current cash balance, cash flows from operations, and its available sources of liquidity to be sufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements. However, as the impact of recent declines in worldwide crude oil and natural gas prices and the impact of COVID-19 on the economy evolves, the Company will continue to assess its liquidity needs. In the event of a sustained market deterioration, Magnolia may need additional liquidity, which would require the Company to evaluate available alternatives and take appropriate actions.

As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had $400.0 million of principal debt related to the 2026 Senior Notes outstanding and no outstanding borrowings related to the RBL Facility. As of ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had ~~$598.5~~$640.3 million of liquidity comprised of the $450.0 million of borrowing base capacity of the RBL Facility, which was reaffirmed on ~~October 15, 2020,~~April 12, 2021, and ~~$148.5~~$190.3 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, Magnolia had ~~$148.5~~$190.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained with various financial institutions in the United States. Deposits with these institutions may exceed the amount of

insurance provided on such deposits. However, the Company regularly monitors the financial stability of ~~its~~such financial institutions and believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant default risk.

Sources of Cash and Cash Equivalents

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Operating cash flows are the Company’s primary source of liquidity and are impacted, in the ~~short term~~short- and ~~long term,~~long-term, by oil and natural gas prices. The factors that determine operating cash flows are largely the same as those that affect net earnings or net losses, with the exception of certain non-cash expenses such as DD&A, the non-cash portion of exploration expense, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, asset retirement ~~obligation~~obligations accretion, and deferred income tax expense.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled ~~$231.0~~$306.0 million and ~~$488.6~~$165.8 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, cash provided by operating activities was ~~negatively~~positively impacted by ~~the sharp decline of~~increased oil, ~~and~~ natural gas, ~~prices~~ and ~~payment of liabilities,~~NGL prices, partially offset by ~~positive impacts from~~an increase in accounts receivable, additional costs associated with the ~~timing~~termination of ~~collections,~~the Services Agreement and ~~lower~~higher production tax payments.

Uses of Cash and Cash Equivalents

Acquisitions

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, 2020, the Company completed various leasehold and property acquisitions, primarily comprised of a $69.7 million acquisition of certain non-operated oil and natural gas assets located in Karnes and DeWitt Counties, Texas. ~~During~~The Company did not make any major acquisitions during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2019, the Company incurred $93.2 million of acquisition costs, comprised of the Highlander acquisition, and other acquisitions of additional oil and natural gas assets in Karnes County.~~2021.

~~As of September~~During the six months ended June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, Magnolia was running primarily a one-rig program for the Giddings Assets. The activity during ~~the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020~~this period was largely driven by the number of operated and non-operated drilling rigs. The number of operated drilling rigs is largely dependent on commodity prices and the Company’s strategy of maintaining spending to accommodate the Company’s business model. The Company added a second rig at the end of the second quarter which is currently drilling wells in the Giddings area.

Capital Requirements

~~Repurchases of Class A Common Stock~~

~~On August 5, 2019, the~~The Company’s board of directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to 1020.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock. The program does not require purchases to be made within a particular ~~timeframe~~time frame and whether the Company undertakes these additional repurchases is ultimately subject to numerous considerations, market conditions, and other factors. During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, the Company repurchased ~~2.1~~4.0 million and 1.0 million shares for a total cost of approximately ~~$13.0~~$44.3 million and ~~$9.7~~$6.5 million, respectively.

~~Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements~~During the six months ended June 30, 2021, Magnolia LLC repurchased and subsequently canceled 10.0 million Magnolia LLC Units with an equal number of shares of corresponding Class B Common Stock for $122.5 million of cash consideration (the “Class B Common Stock Repurchases”). As of June 30, 2021, Magnolia owned approximately 74.3% of the interest in Magnolia LLC and the noncontrolling interest was 25.7%.

In January 2021, the Company amended the Non-Compete such that, rather than delivering an aggregate of 4.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock upon the two and one-half year and the four year anniversaries of July 31, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), the Company would deliver (i) the cash value of approximately 2.0 million shares of Class A Common Stock and approximately 0.4 million shares of Class A Common Stock on the two and one-half year anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) an aggregate of 1.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock on the four year anniversary of the Closing Date, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the Non-Compete. On February 1, 2021, as consideration for compliance with the Non-Compete, the Company paid $17.2 million in cash and issued 0.4 million shares of Class A Common Stock. As part of ~~September 30, 2020, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements.~~the Second Non-Compete Amendment, the Company paid $24.9 million in cash in lieu of delivering the remaining 1.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

For variable rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value of such debt, but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. The Company is subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates on borrowings under the RBL Facility. Interest on borrowings under the RBL Facility is based on the LIBOR rate or alternative base rate plus an applicable margin as stated in the ~~agreement.~~agreement governing the RBL Facility. At ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the RBL Facility.

Commodity Price Risk

Magnolia’s primary market risk exposure is to the prices it receives for its oil, natural gas, and NGL production. The prices the Company ultimately realizes for its oil, natural gas, and NGLs are based on a number of variables, including prevailing index prices attributable to the Company’s production and certain differentials to those index prices. Pricing for oil, natural gas, and NGLs has historically been volatile and unpredictable, and this volatility is expected to continue in the future. The prices the Company receives for production depend on factors outside of its control, including physical markets, supply and demand, financial markets, and national and international policies. As the impact of recent declines in worldwide crude oil and natural gas prices and the impact of COVID-19 on the economy evolves, the Company will continue to assess its market risk exposure as appropriate. A $1.00 per barrel increase (decrease) in the weighted average oil price for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 would have increased (decreased) the Company’s revenues by approximately ~~$12.0~~$11.0 million on an annualized basis and

a $0.10 per Mcf increase (decrease) in the weighted average natural gas price for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020~~2021 would have increased (decreased) ~~Magnolia’s~~the Company’s revenues by approximately ~~$3.9~~$4.0 million on an annualized basis.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Any of these factors ~~and the factors described below~~ could result in a significant or material adverse effect on Magnolia’s business, results of operations, or financial condition. There have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors since its ~~2019~~2020 Form ~~10-K, except as updated below.~~10-K. Additional risk factors not presently known to the Company or that the Company currently deems immaterial may also impair its business, results of operations, or financial condition.

~~COVID-19 and other pandemic outbreaks could negatively impact Magnolia’s business and results of operations.~~

The company may face additional risks related to the ongoing outbreak of COVID-19, which has been declared a “pandemic” by the World Health Organization. International, federal, state, and local public health and governmental authorities have taken extraordinary and wide-ranging actions to contain and combat the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 in regions across the United States and the world, including mandates for many individuals to substantially restrict daily activities and for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations. To the extent COVID-19 continues or worsens, governments may impose additional similar restrictions. The full impact of COVID-19 is unknown and rapidly evolving. The outbreak and any preventative or protective actions that the Company or its customers may take in response to this virus may result in a period of disruption, including the Company’s financial reporting capabilities, its operations generally, and could potentially impact the Company’s customers, distribution partners, and third parties. In addition, many of the Company’s non-operational employees have been working remotely, which could increase the risk of security breaches or other cyber-incidents or attacks, loss of data, fraud, and other disruptions. Any resulting impacts from the outbreak cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, and may materially affect the business and the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The extent and duration of such impacts will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others. As of October 1, 2020, the substantial majority of Magnolia employees have returned to the office.

The marketability of Company production is dependent upon market demand, vehicles, transportation and storage facilities, and other facilities, most of which the Company does not control. If these vehicles or facilities are unavailable, or if the Company is unable to access such vehicles or facilities on commercially reasonable terms, operations could be interrupted, production could be curtailed or shut in, and revenues could be reduced.

The marketing of oil, natural gas, and NGL production depends in large part on the availability, proximity, and capacity of trucks, pipelines, and storage facilities, gas gathering systems, and other transportation, processing, and refining facilities, as well as the existence of adequate markets. If there is a resurgence of the outbreak across the United States and other locations across the world and the related social distancing guidelines, travel restrictions, and stay-at-home orders due to the COVID-19 pandemic and such resurgence reduces demand for oil and natural gas, available storage and transportation capacity for the Company’s production may be limited or unavailable in the future. If there is insufficient capacity, if the capacity is unavailable to the Company, or if the capacity is unavailable on commercially reasonable terms, the prices Magnolia receives for its production could be significantly depressed.

As a result of continued or further storage and/or market shortages, the Company could be forced to temporarily shut in some or all of its production or delay or discontinue drilling plans and commercial production following a discovery of hydrocarbons while the Company constructs or purchases its own facilities or system. If the Company is forced to shut in production, it may incur greater costs to bring the associated production back online. Potential cost increases associated with bringing wells back online may be significant enough that such wells may become non-economic at low commodity price levels, which may lead to decreases in proved reserve estimates and potential impairments and associated charges to earnings. If the Company is able to bring wells back online, there is no assurance that such wells will be as productive following recommencement as they were prior to being shut in. For example, in the second quarter of 2020, the Company temporarily shut in some low producing wells due to depressed commodity prices. Additionally, some of the Company’s non-operated wells were shut in. Many of the wells have returned to production and there was not a significant impact on net production, however, should sustained periods of lower oil and natural gas prices return, the Company may further shut in wells or curtail production.
