PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements of Summit Midstream Partners, LP (including its subsidiaries, collectively “SMLP” or the “Partnership”) are presented to illustrate the effect to the Partnership’s historical financial position and operating results of (i) the sale of all of the equity interests in Summit Midstream Permian, LLC (“Summit Permian”) (the “Permian Sale”) and (ii) the assumption of the Partnership’s take-or-pay firm capacity on the Double E Pipeline by a subsidiary of Matador Resources Company. On June 30, 2022, the Partnership closed on the Permian Sale and received approximately $75.7 million, which is net of cash acquired and includes certain working capital adjustments.
The Permian Sale constituted a significant disposition for purposes of Item 2.01 of Form 8-K. As a result, the Partnership prepared the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. This divestiture does not qualify as a discontinued operation as it does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on SMLP’s operations or financial results.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 has been prepared to give effect to the divestiture as if it had occurred on March 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 have been prepared to give effect to the divestiture as if it had occurred on January 1, 2021.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and statements of operations included herein are for information purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the divestiture taken place on the respective dates assumed. Actual results may differ significantly from those reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial statements for various reasons, including but not limited to, the differences between the assumptions used to prepare the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and actual results. The pro forma adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and the statements of operations included herein include the use of estimates and assumptions as described in the accompanying notes. The pro forma adjustments are based on information available to the Partnership at the time these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared. The Partnership believes its current estimates provide a reasonable basis of presenting the significant effects of the transaction. However, the estimates and assumptions are subject to change as additional information becomes available. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements only include adjustments related to the Permian Sale.
This pro forma information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of SMLP and should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in the Partnership’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on May 5, 2022 and February 28, 2022, respectively.
