Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Earthstone Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Earthstone” and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”), is a growth-oriented independent oil and natural gas development and production company. In addition, the Company is active in corporate mergers and the acquisition of oil and natural gas properties that have production and future development opportunities. The Company's operations are all in the upstream segment of the oil and natural gas industry and all its properties are onshore in Texas and New Mexico. Earthstone is the sole managing member of Earthstone Energy Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (together with its wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries, “EEH”), with a controlling interest in EEH. Earthstone, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lynden Energy Corp., a corporation organized under the laws of British Columbia (“Lynden Corp”), and Lynden Corp’s wholly-owned consolidated subsidiary, Lynden USA Inc., a Utah corporation (“Lynden US”), collectively own a 75.6% interest in EEH. The Company consolidates the financial results of EEH and presents a noncontrolling interest in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements representing the economic interests of EEH’s members other than Earthstone and Lynden US. Each of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share of Earthstone (the “Class A Common Stock”), has a corresponding unit of limited liability company interests denominated as a common unit in EEH (an “EEH Unit”). Each of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock, $0.001 par value per share of Earthstone (the “Class B Common Stock” and with the Class A Common Stock, “Common Stock”), has a corresponding EEH Unit and collectively represent the noncontrolling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. At any time, at the holder’s discretion, a holder of an EEH Unit and a share of Class B Common Stock may receive a share of Class A Common Stock in exchange for an EEH Unit and a corresponding share of Class B Common Stock, resulting in the immediate cancellation of both the EEH Unit and share of Class B Common Stock exchanged. As of June 30, 2023, outstanding common shares of Earthstone, along with the equal number of corresponding outstanding EEH Units, were approximately 140.6 million, consisting of 106.3 million shares of Class A Common Stock and 34.3 million shares of Class B Common Stock. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim financial statements. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in Earthstone’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Any such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022 is derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements at that date. For the purposes of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, short-term investments, which have an original maturity of three months or less, are considered cash equivalents. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC Topic 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date and requires consideration of the counterparty’s creditworthiness when valuing certain assets. The three-level fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements defined by FASB ASC Topic 820 is as follows: Level 1 – Unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. An active market is defined as a market where transactions for the financial instrument occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices within Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require unobservable inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Valuation under Level 3 generally involves a significant degree of judgment from management. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instrument’s complexity. The Company reflects transfers between the three levels at the beginning of the reporting period in which the availability of observable inputs no longer justifies classification in the original level. There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis. The derivative financial instruments consist of fixed price swaps, basis swaps, costless collars and deferred premium put options. The Company’s commodity price hedges are valued based on discounted future cash flow models that are primarily based on published forward commodity price curves; thus, these inputs are designated as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The fair values of derivative instruments in asset positions include measures of counterparty nonperformance risk, and the fair values of derivative instruments in liability positions include measures of the Company’s nonperformance risk. These measurements were not material to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Share-based Compensation Liability Certain of our performance-based stock awards (“PSUs”) and performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs” and collectively with the PSUs, “performance units”) may be payable in cash. The Company classifies the awards that may be settled in cash as liability awards. These awards are valued quarterly utilizing the Monte Carlo Simulation pricing model, which calculates multiple potential outcomes for an award and establishes grant date fair value based on the most likely outcome. The inputs for the Monte Carlo model are designated as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The share-based compensation liability related to the performance unit liability awards is included in Other noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2023. The following table summarizes the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, by level within the fair-value hierarchy (in thousands) : June 30, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets Derivative asset - current $ — $ 7,106 $ — $ 7,106 Derivative asset - noncurrent — 2,284 — 2,284 Total financial assets $ — $ 9,390 $ — $ 9,390 Financial liabilities Derivative liability - current $ — $ 31,702 $ — $ 31,702 Derivative liability - noncurrent — 10,624 — 10,624 Share-based compensation liability - current — 12,722 — 12,722 Share-based compensation liability - noncurrent — 2,179 — 2,179 Total financial liabilities $ — $ 57,227 $ — $ 57,227 December 31, 2022 Financial assets Derivative asset - current $ — $ 31,331 $ — $ 31,331 Derivative asset - noncurrent — 9,117 — 9,117 Total financial assets $ — $ 40,448 $ — $ 40,448 Financial liabilities Derivative liability - current $ — $ 14,053 $ — $ 14,053 Share-based compensation liability - current — 14,411 — 14,411 Share-based compensation liability - noncurrent — 10,357 — 10,357 Total financial liabilities $ — $ 38,821 $ — $ 38,821 Other financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable and payable, and revenue royalties. The carrying amount of these instruments approximates fair value because of their short-term nature. The Company’s revolving credit facility obligation bears interest at floating market rates, therefore carrying amounts and fair value of any outstanding amounts would be approximately equal. The 2027 Notes and 2031 Notes bear interest at fixed rates. Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis The Company applies the provisions of the fair value measurement standard on a non-recurring basis to its non-financial assets and liabilities, including oil and gas properties, business combinations and asset retirement obligations. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments if events or changes in certain circumstances indicate that adjustments may be necessary. No triggering events that require assessment were observed during the six months ended June 30, 2023. See further discussion in Note 6. Oil and Natural Gas Properties . Items Not Recorded at Fair Value The carrying amounts reported on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, other current assets accounts payable, revenues and royalties payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair values. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments Commodity Derivative Instruments The Company’s hedging activities primarily consist of derivative instruments entered into in order to hedge against changes in oil and natural gas prices through the use of fixed price swap agreements, costless collars and deferred premium put options. Swaps exchange floating price risk in the future for a fixed price at the time of the hedge. Costless collars set both a maximum (sold ceiling) and a minimum (bought floor) future price. A deferred premium put option represents a bought floor except, unlike a standard put option, the premium is not paid until the expiration of the option. Consistent with its hedging policy, the Company has entered into a series of derivative instruments to hedge a portion of its expected oil and natural gas production through December 31, 2024 and maintains certain natural gas basis swaps through December 31, 2025. Typically, these derivative instruments require payments to (receipts from) counterparties based on specific indices as required by the derivative agreements. Although not risk free, the Company believes these instruments reduce its exposure to oil and natural gas price fluctuations and, thereby, allow the Company to achieve a more predictable cash flow. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. The Company’s derivative instruments are cash flow hedge transactions in which it is hedging the variability of cash flow related to a forecasted transaction. These transactions are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815. The Company has accounted for these transactions using the mark-to-market accounting method. Generally, the Company incurs accounting losses on derivatives during periods where prices are rising and gains during periods where prices are falling which may cause significant fluctuations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company nets its derivative instrument fair value amounts executed with each counterparty pursuant to an International Swap Dealers Association Master Agreement (“ISDA”), which provides for net settlement over the term of the contract. The ISDA is a standard contract that governs all derivative contracts entered into between the Company and the respective counterparty. The ISDA allows for offsetting of amounts payable or receivable between the Company and the counterparty, at the election of both parties, for transactions that occur on the same date and in the same currency. The following table sets forth the Company's open crude oil and natural gas derivative contracts as of June 30, 2023.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] | |
Acquisitions and Divestitures | Acquisitions and Divestitures Novo Acquisition On June 14, 2023, EEH entered into (i) a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Novo Purchase Agreement”) with Novo Oil & Gas Legacy Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), Novo Intermediate, LLC (“Intermediate,” and together with Holdings, collectively, the “Sellers”) and Novo Oil & Gas Holdings, LLC (“Novo”), pursuant to which EEH will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests (the “Subject Securities”) of Novo (the “Novo Acquisition”); and (ii) an Acquisition and Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) with Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. (“NOG”), pursuant to which NOG has agreed to acquire, immediately after the closing of the Novo Acquisition, an undivided 1/3 interest in Novo’s oil and natural gas properties and related assets (the “Novo Assets”) acquired pursuant to the Novo Purchase Agreement (the “Novo Divestiture” and, together with the Novo Acquisition, the “Novo Transactions”). A Significant Shareholder is the majority owner of the Sellers. Under the terms and conditions of the Novo Purchase Agreement, which has an economic effective date of May 1, 2023, the aggregate consideration to be paid to the Sellers in the Novo Acquisition will consist of $1.5 billion in cash (the “Novo Consideration”), subject to customary purchase price adjustments. Pursuant to the Novo Purchase Agreement, on the execution date thereof, EEH (together with NOG) deposited approximately $112.5 million (the “Acquisition Deposit”) into escrow, which will be credited toward the Novo Consideration payable at the closing of the Novo Acquisition. EEH’s portion of the deposit was $75 million which is included in Other noncurrent assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) as of June 30, 2023. Immediately after the consummation of the Novo Acquisition, pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, EEH has agreed to transfer to NOG an undivided 1/3 interest in the Novo Assets acquired pursuant to the Novo Purchase Agreement in exchange for consideration of approximately $500.0 million in cash, subject to certain customary purchase price adjustments. As a result, assuming an undivided 1/3 interest in the Novo Assets are transferred at the closing of the Cooperation Agreement, the Company will have acquired Novo, and retained ownership of an undivided 2/3 interest in the Novo Assets, for an unadjusted aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.0 billion in cash. The Sellers and Purchaser have made customary representations and warranties in the Novo Purchase Agreement. The Novo Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants and agreements, including, among others, covenants and agreements relating to (a) the conduct of Novo’s businesses during the period between the execution of the Novo Purchase Agreement and closing of the Novo Acquisition and (b) the efforts of the parties to cause the Novo Acquisition to be completed, including obtaining any required governmental approval and causing any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 to expire or terminate. Titus Acquisition On June 27, 2022, Earthstone and EEH, as buyer, and Titus Oil & Gas Production, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Titus Oil & Gas Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Lenox Minerals, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and Lenox Mineral Title Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, “Titus I”), as seller, entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Titus I Purchase Agreement”) which provided that EEH or its designated wholly-owned subsidiary would acquire (the “Titus I Acquisition”) interests in oil and gas leases and related property of Titus I located in the Northern Delaware Basin of New Mexico (the “Titus I Assets”). Also on June 27, 2022, Earthstone and EEH, as buyer, and Titus Oil & Gas Production II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Lenox Minerals II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and Lenox Mineral Holdings II, Inc., a Delaware limited liability company (collectively, “Titus II” and together with Titus I, “Titus”), as seller, entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Titus II Purchase Agreement” and together with the Titus I Purchase Agreement, the “Titus Purchase Agreements”) which provided that EEH or its designated wholly-owned subsidiary would acquire (the “Titus II Acquisition” and together with the Titus I Acquisition, the “Titus Acquisition”) interests in oil and gas leases and related property of Titus II located in the Northern Delaware Basin of New Mexico (the “Titus II Assets” and together with the Titus I Assets, the “Titus Assets”). On August 10, 2022, the transactions contemplated in the Titus Purchase Agreements were consummated whereby EEH acquired the Titus Assets for aggregate consideration of approximately $568.5 million in cash, net of customary purchase price adjustments, and 3,857,015 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Titus Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The consideration paid by the Company and allocation of that amount to the underlying assets acquired, on a relative fair value basis, was recorded on the Company's books as of the date of the closing of the Titus Acquisition. Additionally, costs directly related to the Titus Acquisition were capitalized as a component of the purchase price. The consideration transferred, assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the Company were recorded as follows (in thousands, except share amounts and stock price): Consideration: Shares of Class A Common Stock issued 3,857,015 Class A Common Stock price as of August 10, 2022 $ 13.89 Class A Common Stock consideration 53,574 Cash consideration 567,334 Direct transaction costs 1,202 Total consideration transferred $ 622,110 Assets acquired: Oil and gas properties $ 626,696 Amount attributable to assets acquired $ 626,696 Liabilities assumed: Current liabilities $ 3,672 Noncurrent liabilities - ARO 914 Amount attributable to liabilities assumed $ 4,586 Bighorn Acquisition On January 30, 2022, Earthstone, EEH, as buyer, and Bighorn Asset Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Bighorn”), as seller, entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Bighorn Agreement”).

On April 14, 2022, Earthstone, EEH and Bighorn consummated the transactions contemplated in the Bighorn Agreement whereby EEH acquired the Bighorn Assets for aggregate consideration of approximately $628.3 million in cash, net of customary purchase price adjustments, and 5,650,977 shares Class A Common Stock. The Bighorn Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The consideration paid by the Company and allocation of that amount to the underlying assets acquired, on a relative fair value basis, was recorded on the Company's books as of the date of the closing of the Bighorn Acquisition. Additionally, costs directly related to the Bighorn Acquisition were capitalized as a component of the purchase price.

(“Agent” and collectively with OpCo, “Chisholm”), collectively as seller, entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Chisholm Agreement”), which provided that EEH would acquire (the “Chisholm Acquisition”) interests in oil and gas leases and related property of Chisholm located in Lea County and Eddy County, New Mexico (the “Chisholm Assets”). On February 15, 2022, Earthstone, EEH and Chisholm consummated the transactions contemplated in the Chisholm Agreement whereby EEH acquired the Chisholm Assets for aggregate consideration consisting of: (i) approximately $313.9 million in cash, net of customary purchase price adjustments, paid at the closing of the Chisholm Acquisition, (ii) $70 million in cash paid on April 15, 2022 and (iii) 19,417,476 shares of Class A Common Stock. The fair value of each share of Class A Common Stock was determined using the closing sales price of $12.85 per share on February 15, 2022. On April 10, 2023, 105,894 shares of Class A Common Stock were released to Earthstone from escrow and canceled in connection with the settlement of the Chisholm Acquisition. A Significant Shareholder, as identified below, was the majority owner of Chisholm as of the closing of the Chisholm Acquisition. See Note 12. Related Party Transactions for further discussion. The Chisholm Acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, with Earthstone identified as the acquirer. The consideration transferred, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Earthstone were recorded as follows (in thousands, except share amounts and stock price): Consideration: Shares of Class A Common Stock issued 19,311,582 Class A Common Stock price as of February 15, 2022 $ 12.85 Class A Common Stock consideration 248,154 Cash consideration 383,877 Total consideration transferred $ 632,031 Fair value of assets acquired: Oil and gas properties $ 642,391 Amount attributable to assets acquired $ 642,391 Fair value of liabilities assumed: Other current liabilities $ 4,389 Asset retirement obligation - noncurrent 5,971 Amount attributable to liabilities assumed $ 10,360 The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs. The fair value of oil and gas properties and asset retirement obligations were measured using the discounted cash flow technique of valuation. Significant inputs to the valuation of oil and gas properties include estimates of: (i) reserves, (ii) future operating and development costs, (iii) future commodity prices, (iv) future plugging and abandonment costs, (v) estimated future cash flows, and (vi) a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates and are the most sensitive and subject to change. Divestitures During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold certain non-core properties for approximately $54.2 million and $56.1 million, respectively, in cash, resulting in net gains of approximately $49.3 million and $46.1 million, respectively, recorded in Gain on sale of oil and gas properties, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for each of the periods then ended. There were no material divestitures during the six months ended June 30, 2022. |

Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Industries Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Oil and Natural Gas Properties | Oil and Natural Gas Properties The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, costs to acquire oil and natural gas properties, drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, and drill and equip development wells are capitalized. Exploration costs, including unsuccessful exploratory wells and geological and geophysical costs, are charged to operations as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of oil and natural gas properties, the costs and related accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized. Costs incurred to maintain wells and related equipment, lease and well operating costs, and other exploration costs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses arising from the sale of properties are included in Income from operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company’s lease acquisition costs and development costs of proved oil and natural gas properties are amortized using the units-of-production method, at the field level, based on total proved reserves and proved developed reserves, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, depletion expense for oil and gas producing property and related equipment was $109.6 million and $219.9 million, respectively For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, depletion expense for oil and gas producing property and related equipment was $66.2 million and $100.3 million, respectively. Our accrual basis capital expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, were as follows ( in thousands ): Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Development costs $ 173,702 $ 375,086 Leasehold costs 738 1,626 Total capital expenditures $ 174,440 $ 376,712 Proved Properties Proved oil and natural gas properties are reviewed for impairment on a nonrecurring basis. The impairment charge reduces the carrying values to their estimated fair values. These fair value measurements are classified as Level 3 measurements and include many unobservable inputs. Fair value is calculated as the estimated discounted future net cash flows attributable to the assets. The Company’s primary assumptions in preparing the estimated discounted future net cash flows to be recovered from oil and gas properties are based on (i) proved reserves, (ii) forward commodity prices and assumptions as to costs and expenses, and (iii) the estimated discount rate that would be used by potential purchasers to determine the fair value of the assets. Unproved Properties Unproved properties consist of costs incurred to acquire undeveloped leases. Unproved oil and gas leases are generally for a primary term of three The Company reviews its unproved properties periodically for impairment. In determining whether an unproved property is impaired, the Company considers numerous factors including, but not limited to, current exploration and development plans, favorable or unfavorable exploration activity on the property being evaluated and/or adjacent properties, the Company’s geologists' evaluation of the property, and the remaining months in the lease term for the property. Impairments to Oil and Natural Gas Properties During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges of $0.9 million to its oil and natural gas properties due to acreage expirations in non-core operating areas. No impairments were recorded to the Company's oil and natural gas properties during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. |

Net Income Per Common Share | Net Income Per Common ShareNet income per common share—basic is calculated by dividing Net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Net income per common share—diluted assumes the conversion of all potentially dilutive securities and is calculated by dividing Net income by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock, as defined above, outstanding plus potentially dilutive securities. Net income per common share—diluted considers the impact of potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss because the inclusion of the potential common shares, as defined above, would have an anti-dilutive effect. A reconciliation of Net income per common share is as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended (In thousands, except per share amounts) 2023 2022 2023 2022 Net income attributable to Earthstone Energy, Inc. $ 58,042 $ 144,885 $ 118,590 $ 111,407 Net income attributable to Earthstone Energy, Inc. from assumed conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock — 4,351 — 4,351 Net income attributable to Earthstone Energy, Inc. - Diluted $ 58,042 $ 149,236 $ 118,590 $ 115,758 Net income per common share attributable to Earthstone Energy, Inc.: Basic $ 0.55 $ 1.85 $ 1.12 $ 1.57 Diluted $ 0.54 $ 1.46 $ 1.10 $ 1.37 Weighted average common shares outstanding Basic 106,209,657 78,291,037 106,091,850 70,909,353 Add potentially dilutive securities: Unvested restricted stock units 204,310 493,600 276,434 506,760 Unvested performance units 922,728 2,003,778 1,069,778 1,979,770 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock — 21,621,621 — 10,870,539 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 107,336,695 102,410,036 107,438,062 84,266,422 The Class B Common Stock has been excluded, as its conversion would eliminate noncontrolling interest and net income attributable to noncontrolling interest of $24.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and net income attributable to noncontrolling interest of $50.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 would be added back to Net income attributable to Earthstone Energy, Inc. for the periods then ended, having no dilutive effect on Net income per common share attributable to Earthstone Energy, Inc.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation Restricted Stock Units The 2014 Plan, allows, among other things, for the grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). As of June 30, 2023, the maximum number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued under the 2014 Plan was 12.0 million shares. Each RSU represents the contingent right to receive one share of Class A Common Stock. The holders of outstanding RSUs do not have voting rights prior to vesting and settlement. Holders of outstanding RSUs granted prior to December 1, 2022 do not have dividend rights prior to vesting and settlement. Holders of outstanding RSUs granted subsequent to December 1, 2022 do have dividend rights. The Company determines the fair value of granted RSUs based on the market price of the Class A Common Stock on the date of the grant. Compensation expense for granted RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period and is net of forfeitures, as incurred. Stock-based compensation is included in General and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and is recorded with a corresponding increase in Additional paid-in capital within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The table below summarizes RSU award activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023: Shares Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value Unvested RSUs at December 31, 2022 869,978 $ 11.40 Granted 420,655 $ 13.37 Forfeited (22,252) $ 12.14 Vested (361,166) $ 11.10 Unvested RSUs at June 30, 2023 907,215 $ 12.41 As of June 30, 2023, there was $11.0 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to the RSU awards which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.06 years. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Stock-based compensation related to RSUs was $1.8 million and $3.6 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Stock-based compensation related to RSUs was $1.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively. Performance Units Performance units include both performance-based stock units (“PSUs”) and performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”). The table below summarizes performance unit activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023: Shares Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value Unvested Performance Units at December 31, 2022 2,616,085 $ 10.21 Granted 559,325 $ 18.86 Vested (1,043,800) $ 5.36 Unvested Performance Units at June 30, 2023 2,131,610 $ 14.85 On January 6, 2023, the Board of Directors of Earthstone (the “Board”) granted 258,150 PRSUs (the “2023 RTSR PRSUs”) to certain officers pursuant to the 2014 Plan. The 2023 RTSR PRSUs are payable in cash or shares of Class A Common Stock upon the achievement by Earthstone over a period commencing on January 1, 2023 and ending on December 31, 2025 (the “2023 Performance Period”) of certain performance criteria established by the Board. The Company classifies these awards that will be settled in cash as liability awards. PRSU grants to be settled in shares are classified as equity awards. The holders of 2023 RTSR PRSUs do not have any voting rights with respect to such PRSUs until vesting and settlement; however, such holders do have dividend rights. The number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be earned will be determined based on the TSR (as defined below) achieved by Earthstone relative to the TSR of each of the companies in the predetermined peer group during the Performance Period. Between 0x to 2.0x of the PRSUs are eligible to be earned based on Earthstone’s ranking relative to the companies in the predetermined peer group. In the event that greater than 1.0x of the 2023 RTSR PRSUs are earned, such additional PRSUs may be paid in cash rather than the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock Total shareholder return is generally determined by dividing (A) the volume weighted average price of a share of stock for the trading days during the thirty calendar days ending on and including the last calendar day of the applicable performance period minus the volume weighted average price of a share of stock for the trading days during the thirty calendar days ending on and including the first day of the applicable performance period plus cash dividends paid over the applicable performance period by (B) the volume weighted average price of a share of stock for the trading days during the thirty calendar days ending on and including the first day of the applicable performance period (“TSR”). The Company accounts for the 2023 RTSR PRSU awards as market-based awards which are valued utilizing the Monte Carlo Simulation pricing model, which calculates multiple potential outcomes for an award and establishes grant date fair value based on the most likely outcome. For the 2023 RTSR PRSUs, assuming a risk-free rate of 3.89% and volatilities ranging from 40.6% to 142.5%, the Company calculated the weighted average grant date fair value per PRSU to be $20.06. On January 6, 2023, the Board granted 301,175 PRSUs (the “2023 ATSR PRSUs”) to certain officers pursuant to the 2014 Plan. The 2023 ATSR PRSUs are payable in cash or shares of Class A Common Stock upon the achievement by Earthstone over the 2023 Performance Period of certain performance criteria established by the Board. The Company classifies these awards that will be settled in cash as liability awards. PRSU grants to be settled in shares are classified as equity awards. The holders of 2023 ATSR PRSUs do not have any voting rights with respect to such PRSUs until vesting and settlement; however, such holders do have dividend rights. The 2023 ATSR PRSUs are eligible to be earned based on the annualized TSR of the Class A Common Stock during the 2023 Performance Period. Between 0x to 2.0x of the Performance Units are eligible to be earned based on Earthstone achieving an annualized TSR based on the following pre-established goals: Earthstone’s Annualized TSR TSR Multiplier 23.9% or greater 2.0 14.5% 1.0 8.4% 0.5 Less than 8.4% 0.0 In the event that greater than 1.0x of the 2023 ATSR PRSUs are earned, such additional PRSUs may be paid in cash rather than the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock. The Company accounts for the 2023 ATSR PRSUs as market-based awards which are valued utilizing the Monte Carlo Simulation pricing model, which calculates multiple potential outcomes for an award and establishes grant date fair value based on the most likely outcome. For the 2023 ATSR PRSUs, assuming a risk-free rate of 3.89% and volatility of 77%, the Company calculated the weighted average grant date fair value per PRSU to be $17.84. On January 30, 2020, the Board granted 1,043,800 PSUs (the “2020 PSUs”) to certain officers pursuant to the 2014 Plan (the “2020 Grant”). The 2020 PSUs were settled on January 31, 2023 resulting in the issuance of 1,043,800 shares of Class A Common Stock and cash payments totaling approximately $14.5 million. As of June 30, 2023, there was $17.7 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to all PSU awards which will be amortized over a weighted average period of 0.89 years. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Stock-based compensation related to all performance units was approximately $6.1 million and $8.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Stock-based compensation related to all performance units was approximately $4.5 million and $9.1 million, respectively. The Company classifies awards that will be settled in cash as liability awards. PSU grants to be settled in shares are classified as equity awards. Corresponding liabilities of $12.7 million and $14.4 million related to the performance units were included in Other current liabilities and Accrued expenses, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Additionally, corresponding liabilities of $2.2 million and $10.4 million related to the performance units were included in Other noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. |

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants and defines events of default to include failure to pay principal or interest, breach of covenants, breach of representations and warranties, insolvency, judgment default and a change in control. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an event of default, the Lenders have the right to accelerate repayment of the loans and exercise their remedies with respect to the collateral. As of June 30, 2023, EEH was in compliance with the covenants under the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2023, no borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Agreement, resulting in $1.4 billion of borrowing base availability.

There were no costs associated with the term loan tranche of the Credit Agreement to capitalize during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company capitalized $5.7 million and $11.6 million, respectively, of costs associated with the Credit Agreement. The Company’s policy is to capitalize the financing costs associated with its debt and amortize those costs on a straight-line basis over the term of the associated debt, which approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related debt. 8.000% Senior Notes At June 30, 2023, there were $550.0 million of outstanding senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”). The 2027 Notes will mature on April 15, 2027 with interest accruing at a rate of 8.000% per annum payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

The 2027 Notes are unsecured, rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of EEH and the Guarantors, including the 2031 Notes, and rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of EEH and the Guarantors. The 2027 Notes will rank effectively junior to all secured indebtedness of EEH and the Guarantors, including indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 2027 Notes will rank structurally junior in right of payment to all indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of any future subsidiary of EEH that are not guarantors.

The 2031 Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantors and the 2031 Notes may be guaranteed by certain of EEH’s future restricted subsidiaries. The 2031 Notes are unsecured, rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of EEH and the Guarantors, including the 2027 Notes, and rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of EEH and the Guarantors. The 2031 Notes will rank effectively junior to all secured indebtedness of EEH and the Guarantors, including indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 2031 Notes will rank structurally junior in right of payment to all indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, of any future subsidiary of EEH that are not guarantors. The indenture dated June 30, 2023 under which the 2031 Notes were issued (the “Indenture”) also contains certain restrictive covenants, redemption rights, events of default and other customary provisions. Subject to the terms of the Indenture, if the consummation of the Novo Acquisition does not occur before a specified date, EEH will be required to redeem all of the 2031 Notes issued on the issue date at a redemption price equal to 100% of the initial issue price of the 2031 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 2031 Notes being redeemed, if any. As of June 30, 2023, accrued interest of $0.1 million associated with the 2031 Notes was included in Accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. |

On October 14, 2022, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended Complaint. Earthstone believes the Complaint is completely without merit and intends to contest vigorously the allegations made therein and to seek reimbursement for its costs and expenses in so doing. Earthstone carries insurance for the claims asserted against it and the officer and director defendants in the Complaint, and the carrier has accepted coverage subject to applicable self-retentions and limits of liability. The Company does not expect this case to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company. From time to time, the Company may be involved in other various legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business, none of which are reasonably expected to result in a material liability to the Company as of June 30, 2023.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income TaxesThe Company’s corporate structure requires the filing of two separate U.S. Federal income tax returns and one Canadian income tax return which include Lynden US, Earthstone, and Lynden Corp, respectively. As such, taxable income of Earthstone cannot be offset by tax attributes, including net operating losses, of Lynden US, nor can taxable income of Lynden US be offset by tax attributes of Earthstone. Earthstone and Lynden US record a tax provision, respectively, for their share of the book income or loss of EEH, net of the non-controlling interest. As EEH is treated as a partnership for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, it is not subject to income tax at the federal level and only recognizes the Texas Margin Tax. On February 15, 2022, the Company completed the Chisholm Acquisition which included the issuance of 19,311,582 shares of Class A Common Stock, which resulted in an ownership change within the meaning of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a result of the ownership change, the Company’s ability to utilize net operating losses (“NOLs”) and credits generated prior to the ownership change date may be limited to offset taxable income incurred after the ownership change date (the “382 Limitation”). As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, current liabilities of $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively, are included in Other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related solely to current Texas Margin Tax payable. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $36.7 million comprised of (1) deferred federal income tax expense for Earthstone of $31.0 million resulting from its share of the distributable income from EEH, (2) a deferred federal income tax expense for Lynden US of $1.8 million as a result of its share of the distributable income from EEH and (3) income tax expense of $3.9 million related to both current and deferred state income taxes. Lynden Corp incurred no material income or loss, or related income tax expense or benefit, for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
