Permian Resources replaced its prior credit agreement with a new $3.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in 2031, a significant upgrade from its earlier secured borrowing-base facilities reflecting its stronger post-merger credit profile.
Permian Resources completed a corporate reorganization, becoming a subsidiary of a new public holding company that itself took the Permian Resources Corporation name (with the prior entity renamed Permian Resources Holdings), and converted Class C shares held by management into Class A shares to simplify its Up-C ownership structure.
Permian Resources called for redemption all of its outstanding 3.25% exchangeable senior notes due 2028 (issued in March 2021), triggering noteholders' right to exchange or be cashed out ahead of the redemption date.
Permian Resources extended its credit facility's maturity, closed its Barilla Draw acquisition (adding ~29,500 net acres), raised its quarterly dividend 150% to $0.15/share under a new return-of-capital strategy, and received credit rating upgrades from Moody's, S&P and Fitch as it targets investment-grade status in 2025.
Permian Resources' operating subsidiary issued $1.0 billion of new 6.25% senior notes due 2033 and used part of the proceeds to tender for and fully retire its $300 million of 7.75% notes due 2026.
Permian Resources extended its registration rights agreement with private equity sponsors EnCap, Pearl Energy and Riverstone through mid-2029, formalizing an orderly path for them to keep selling down their stakes; combined sponsor ownership has already fallen from over 50% in 2022 to about 16%.
Permian Resources' lenders reaffirmed its credit facility's $4.0 billion borrowing base (reflecting the enlarged post-Earthstone reserve base) and raised elected commitments from $2.0 billion to $2.5 billion.
Permian Resources' operating subsidiary added $500 million more to its 7.000% notes due 2032, bringing that note series to $1 billion outstanding, likely helping fund the newly closed Earthstone acquisition.
Permian Resources filed Earthstone Energy's historical and pro forma combined financial statements following the completed acquisition, a routine post-closing disclosure.
Permian Resources completed its acquisition of Earthstone Energy after shareholders of both companies approved the deal, issuing about 211 million shares to Earthstone holders; Earthstone was delisted from the NYSE and ceased separate SEC reporting.
Amendment No. 1 says on its face it was filed solely to amend Item 21 of Part II and file exhibits, with the joint proxy statement omitted entirely; what it delivered was Vinson & Elkins' signed opinion in place of the form of it, and the proxy cards for both companies.
Permian Resources registered with the SEC the shares it will issue to Earthstone Energy shareholders in the pending merger, filing the joint proxy statement/prospectus both companies' shareholders would vote on.
Permian Resources amended its credit agreement to accommodate the pending Earthstone Energy merger, excluding certain permitted debt from borrowing-base calculations.
Permian Resources and Earthstone Energy jointly announced their merger agreement, valuing the combined company at roughly $14 billion with over 400,000 net Permian acres and about 300,000 boe/d of pro forma production; each Earthstone share converts to 1.446 Permian Resources shares.
Permian Resources agreed to acquire Earthstone Energy, a complementary Delaware Basin operator, in an all-stock deal worth an estimated $4.5 billion enterprise value, expecting about $175 million in annual synergies and over 30% free cash flow per share accretion.
Permian Resources' lenders reaffirmed its credit facility's borrowing base at $2.5 billion, reflecting the larger reserve base from the Colgate Energy merger, while keeping elected commitments at $1.5 billion.
Now trading as Permian Resources Corporation following the Colgate Energy merger, the company's early investors NGP and Riverstone sold 27.5 million shares in a secondary offering at $11.00 per share, continuing to reduce their combined sponsor ownership; the company received no proceeds.
Centennial Resource Development completed its merger with Colgate Energy Partners and renamed itself Permian Resources Corporation, establishing headquarters in Midland, Texas as the largest pure-play E&P company in the Delaware Basin.
Centennial's shareholders voted to approve the Colgate Energy merger, clearing the way to close the deal that would create the combined company later renamed Permian Resources Corporation.
Centennial reaffirmed the terms of its pending merger with Colgate Energy in an SEC filing, restating the transaction structure ahead of the shareholder vote.
