Eagle Ford Divestiture
On May 3, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with Ridgemar Energy Operating, LLC (“Ridgemar”) for the sale of all its oil and gas properties in the Eagle Ford (the “Eagle Ford Divestiture”) for consideration of $655.0 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments, as well as contingent consideration where the Company could receive up to $45.0 million if the WTI price of oil exceeds certain thresholds in 2024 (“Contingent Eagle Ford Consideration”). See “Note 9 — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” for further discussion of the Contingent Eagle Ford Consideration. Upon signing, Ridgemar paid approximately $49.1 million as a deposit into a third-party escrow account. The transaction was structured as the acquisition by Ridgemar of 100% of the limited liability company interests of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Callon (Eagle Ford) LLC.
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company classified the assets and liabilities associated with the Eagle Ford Divestiture as held for sale, and recorded an impairment of $406.9 million against properties associated with the Eagle Ford Divestiture as the fair value less cost to sell was less than the carrying amount of the net assets. On July 3, 2023, the Company closed the Eagle Ford Divestiture. The Eagle Ford Divestiture has an adjusted purchase price of approximately $549.3 million in cash, inclusive of the deposit paid at signing, subject to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments. As a result, the Company recorded a gain on sale of assets of $20.6 million.
Percussion Acquisition
On May 3, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Percussion Agreement”) with Percussion Petroleum Management II, LLC (“Percussion”) for the purchase of its oil and gas properties in the Delaware Basin (the “Percussion Acquisition”) for
consideration of $475.0 million, which consisted of $255.0 million in cash, inclusive of the repayment of Percussion’s indebtedness of approximately $220.0 million, and $210.0 million of shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. Upon signing, the Company paid $36.0 million as a deposit into a third-party escrow account. The transaction was structured as the acquisition by Callon Petroleum Operating Company of 100% of the limited liability company interests of Percussion’s wholly owned subsidiary, Percussion Petroleum Operating II, LLC (“Percussion Operating”).
On July 3, 2023, the Company closed the Percussion Acquisition for an adjusted purchase price of approximately $248.5 million in cash, inclusive of the deposit paid at signing and the repayment of Percussion Operating’s indebtedness of approximately $220.0 million, and approximately 6.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock for total consideration of $458.5 million, subject to customary post-closing purchase price adjustments. The Company funded the cash portion of the total consideration with proceeds from the Eagle Ford Divestiture. Additionally, the Company assumed Percussion Operating’s (as defined below) existing hedges and transportation contract liabilities, and could have to pay up to $62.5 million if the WTI price of oil exceeds certain thresholds in 2023, 2024, and 2025 (“Percussion Earn-Out Obligation”).
The Percussion Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination; therefore, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated acquisition date fair values with information available at that time. A combination of a discounted cash flow model and market data was used by a third-party specialist in determining the fair value of the oil and gas properties. Significant inputs into the calculation included future commodity prices, estimated volumes of oil and gas reserves, expectations for timing and amount of future development and operating costs, future plugging and abandonment costs and a risk adjusted discount rate. Certain data necessary to complete the purchase price allocation is not yet available. The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation during the 12-month period following the acquisition date.
The following table sets forth the Company’s preliminary allocation of the total estimated consideration of $458.5 million to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date.
