To the extent not prohibited by the Amended and Restated Charter, the provisions hereof or other provisions of applicable law, such number of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board; provided, however, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock to less than the number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock then outstanding. Shares of the Series E Preferred Stock that are redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company shall be cancelled, and shall revert to authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock undesignated as to series and subject to later issuance.

SECTION 2. Rank. The Series E Preferred Stock shall, as to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, rank senior to each class or series of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”), and any other class or series of capital stock of the Company, including but not limited to the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock (such securities collectively referred to herein as the “Junior Securities”).

SECTION 3. Uncertificated Shares. The shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall be in uncertificated, book-entry form as permitted by the bylaws of the Company and the Delaware General Corporation Law.

SECTION 4. Voting. The holders of the Series E Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights and shall not be entitled to any vote with respect to shares of Series E Preferred Stock held of record by a Holder on any matters on which any of the Company’s stockholders are entitled to vote, except as required by law; provided, the Board shall not amend the terms of the Series E Preferred Stock without the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

SECTION 5. Dividends.

(b)

No dividend or distribution shall be declared and paid on any class or series of capital stock of the Company unless all dividends are declared and paid with respect to the Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 5(a).

(c)

Prior to declaring any dividend with respect to shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Company in accordance with this Section 5, the Company shall take any and all prior corporate action necessary to authorize any corporate action in respect of the Series E Preferred Stock required under this Certificate of Designations.

SECTION 6. Optional Redemption; Mandatory Redemption.

Upon the exercise of the optional redemption right set forth in this Section 6(a) with respect to any share of Series E Preferred Stock that is the last share of Series E Preferred Stock held by a Holder, in addition to the Redemption Price, the Company shall pay an additional dividend, if required, such that, together with the payment of the Redemption Price and all dividends paid with respect to such Holder in the aggregate, such Holder shall have received the Minimum Return (such additional dividend, the “Minimum Return Payment”).

(b)

(d)

If, on the date of any redemption pursuant to this Section 6, Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders prevents the Company from redeeming all shares of Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 6, the Company shall ratably redeem the maximum number of shares of Series E Preferred Stock that it may redeem consistent with such law, and shall use best efforts to ameliorate such condition and redeem the remaining shares of Series E Preferred Stock as soon as it may lawfully do so under such law. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) all rights with respect to the shares of Series E Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 and (ii) the Company’s obligation to pay dividends with respect to such shares of Series E Preferred Stock if, as and when declared by the Board of Directors will terminate only upon the Redemption Price, accompanied by the Minimum Return Payment, if applicable, being paid in full and in cash in respect of such shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (a “Liquidation Event”), holders of the Series E Preferred Stock will first be entitled to receive the Minimum Return before any distribution of assets is made to holders of any Junior Securities. After the payment of the Minimum Return to the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock, the remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Common Stock and any other Junior Securities in accordance with their rights and preferences.

SECTION 9. Severability. In the event any provision of these terms for the Series E Preferred Stock is for any reason held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, and these terms for the Series E Preferred Stock shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

SECTION 10. Miscellaneous.

3.10

Absence of Litigation.

The Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations regarding employment, except for any failures to comply that are not reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no labor dispute, strike or work stoppage against the Company or its subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened which may interfere with the business activities of the Company, except where such dispute, strike or work stoppage is not reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.2

Ratification and Affirmation; Representations and Warranties.

6.3

Counterparts. This Second Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Second Amendment by facsimile or other electronic transmission (e.g., .pdf) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Second Amendment. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery” and words of like import in or related to this Second Amendment shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures or execution in the form of an Electronic Record, and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Each party hereto agrees that any Electronic Signature or execution in the form of an Electronic Record shall be valid and binding on itself and each of the other parties hereto to the same extent as a manual, original signature. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the parties of a manually signed paper which

8

has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed paper converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature from any party hereto, the Administrative Agent and the other parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the executing party without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by an original manually executed counterpart thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any of the Credit Parties, electronic images of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages thereto) shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (ii) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents based solely on the lack of paper original copies of any Loan Documents, including with respect to any signature pages thereto.

6.4

NO ORAL AGREEMENT. This Second Amendment, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Second Amendment and the other Loan Documents represent the final agreement WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER CONTAINED HEREIN AND THEREIN among the parties hereto and thereto and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

6.5

GOVERNING LAW. THIS SECOND AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

6.6

Loan Document. This Second Amendment is a “Loan Document” as defined and described in the Credit Agreement and all of the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement relating to Loan Documents shall apply hereto.

6.7

Payment of Expenses. In accordance with Section 12.03, the Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Second Amendment, any other documents prepared in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent.

9

6.8

Severability. Any provision of this Second Amendment held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

6.9

Successors and Assigns. This Second Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Independent Auditor's Report

To the Member

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and

Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Opinion

We have audited the combined financial statements of Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC (collectively, the "Company"), which comprise the combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the related combined statements of operations, changes in member's equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the combined financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audits of the Combined Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note 2, which describes the basis of presentation of the accompanying combined carve-out financial statements. These combined carve-out financial statements have been derived from the historical accounting records of San Jacinto Minerals II, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries and reflect the revenue and costs and assets and liabilities directly associated with the Company, as well as allocations of other amounts. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Responsibilities of Management for the Combined Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the combined financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of combined financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the combined financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the combined financial statements are issued or available to be issued.

To the Member

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and

Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audits of the Combined Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and, therefore, is not a guarantee that audits conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the combined financial statements.

In performing audits in accordance with GAAS, we:

•

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audits.

•

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the combined financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements.

•

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audits in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

•

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the combined financial statements.

•

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audits, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audits.

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Notes to Combined Financial Statements

December 31, 2025 and 2024

Note 1 - Nature of Business

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC (TRR II), a Colorado limited liability company, was formed on April 4, 2017 for the purpose of managing and acquiring mineral and royalty assets for lease and royalty revenue. TRR II owns oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in the Appalachian basin in Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC (CMP), a Louisiana limited liability company, was formed on March 23, 2017 for the purpose of managing and acquiring mineral and royalty assets for lease and royalty revenue. CMP owns oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in the Haynesville basin in Louisiana.

TRR II and CMP are collectively referred to herein as the "Company."

TRR II and CMP are wholly owned subsidiaries of San Jacinto Minerals II, LLC (SJM II).

SJM II and its affiliated entities, San Jacinto Minerals, LLC (SJM I); San Jacinto Minerals III, LLC (SJM III); and San Jacinto Minerals IV, LLC (SJM IV) (collectively, the "SJM Entities"), share common ownership and common management. Under a management services agreement between SJM II and the other SJM Entities (the "MSA"), SJM II is the named employer of those individuals providing services to the SJM Entities. Labor and other shared expenses are allocated amongst the SJM Entities based on the hours spent of such personnel (see Note 9). Direct costs of each of the individual SJM Entities are recorded based on the actual amounts incurred and recorded to the specific entity for which it relates. In addition to allocating the costs amongst the SJM entities, costs allocable to SJM II are allocated amongst TRR II, CMP, and the other wholly owned subsidiaries of SJM II: Bluebird Energy Partners, LLC (BEP); Old River Royalty, LLC (ORR); and 1836 Mineral Company, LLC (1836), based on their respective proportion of revenue and capital expenditures. In addition, TRR II, CMP, BEP, and 1836 are all guarantors (the "Guarantors") under the SJM II Credit Agreement (see Note 5).

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The combined carve-out financial statements of the Company are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) are presented on a combined basis which includes the accounts of the commonly controlled and managed entities of TRR II and CMP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in combination.

TRR II and CMP have historically operated as part of SJM II and not as stand-alone companies. The accompanying combined carve-out financial statements represent the historical operations of TRR II and CMP and have been derived from SJM II’s historical accounting records. All revenue and costs and assets and liabilities directly associated with TRR II and CMP are included in the combined carve-out financial statements. The combined carve-out financial statements also include allocations of certain general and administrative expenses, including unit-based compensation expense, from SJM II. However, amounts recognized by TRR II and CMP are not necessarily representative of the amounts that would have been reflected in the financial statements had TRR II and/or CMP been operated independently of SJM II. Related party allocations are discussed further in Notes 1, 2, 5, 8, and 9.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization (DD&A) and impairment of proved oil and gas properties are determined using estimates of proved oil and gas reserves. There are numerous uncertainties in estimating the quantity of reserves and in projecting the future rates of production and timing of development expenditures. Oil and gas reserve engineering must be recognized as a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and gas that cannot be measured in an exact way. The recoverability of unproved oil and gas properties, the estimated fair value of commodity derivatives allocable to the Company, and the allocation of certain expenses not specifically identifiable to the Company's revenue-producing activities are also subject to estimation. As a royalty owner, the Company is not responsible for any reclamation costs.

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Notes to Combined Financial Statements

December 31, 2025 and 2024

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Cash

The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. As of and during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, cash balances were primarily held by one financial institution.

Commodity Derivative Instruments

SJM II and its subsidiaries use commodity derivative instruments to provide a measure of stability to their cash flows in an environment of volatile oil and gas prices and to manage their exposure to oil and gas price volatility. All commodity derivative instruments are initially, and subsequently, measured at estimated fair value and recorded as assets or liabilities on the combined balance sheet.

SJM II is the named counterparty to the commodity derivative contracts pertaining to the Company's natural gas production and natural gas volumes. As these commodity derivative instruments relate to the Company's natural gas volumes, the fair values, and the related realized and unrealized gains/losses attributable thereto, have been pushed down to these combined financial statements for each of the years presented.

SJM II allocates realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with commodity derivative instruments to the Company based on TRR II and CMP's proportionate share of the total monthly production volumes for SJM II.

SJM II and the Company have elected not to designate commodity derivative instruments as cash flow hedges. For commodity derivative instruments that do not qualify as cash flow hedges, changes in the estimated fair value of the contracts are recorded as gains and losses in the combined statement of operations. When commodity derivative instruments are settled, SJM II and the Company recognize realized gains and losses in the combined statement of operations. Derivative cash flows are reported as cash flows from operating activities in the combined statement of cash flows (see Note 4).

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenue is primarily derived from the sale of its produced oil and natural gas from wells in which the Company has nonoperated royalty interests.

The Company's produced oil and natural gas is produced and sold in the Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Louisiana geographic areas. Oil sales for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $550,506 and $798,814, respectively. Natural gas sales for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $26,676,312 and $15,911,728, respectively. Natural gas liquids sales for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $5,793,924 and $5,604,655, respectively. Accounts receivable from royalty revenue were $3,808,741 as of January 1, 2024.

The sales of produced oil and natural gas are made under contracts that the operators of the wells have negotiated with customers, which typically include variable consideration based on monthly pricing tied to local indices and volumes delivered. While revenue is typically recorded at the point in time when control of the produced oil and natural gas transfers to the customer, statements and payment may not be received via the operator of the wells for one to three months after the date the produced oil and natural gas are delivered, and, as a result, the amount of production delivered to the customer and the price that will be received for the sale of the product are estimated utilizing production reports, market indices, and estimated differentials. Estimated revenue due to the Company is recorded within accounts receivable in the accompanying combined balance sheet until payment is received. Differences between the estimated amounts and the actual amounts received from the sale of the produced oil and natural gas are recorded when known, which is generally when statements and payment are received.

The Company utilizes the practical expedient in ASC 606, which states the Company is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. As the Company has determined that each unit of product generally represents a separate performance obligation, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations is not required.

The Company also derives revenue from mineral lease bonuses. The Company generates lease bonus revenue by leasing its mineral interests to exploration and production companies. The lease agreements generally transfer the rights to any oil or natural gas discovered, grant the Company a right to a specified royalty interest, and require that drilling and completion operations commence within a specified time period, or the lease will expire. The Company recognizes such lease bonus revenue once the lease agreement has been executed, payment is received, and the Company has no further obligation to refund the payment.

9

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Notes to Combined Financial Statements

December 31, 2025 and 2024

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Given that the Company does not recognize lease bonus income until a lease agreement has been executed, at which point its performance obligation has been satisfied, and payment is received, the Company does not record revenue for unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.

Unit-based Compensation

The Company follows authoritative guidance that applies to unit-based awards, which requires entities to recognize compensation expense for awards issued to employees and others. Authoritative guidance also requires unit-based awards to employees and others by a related party or other holder of an economic interest in the entity to be accounted for as unit-based transactions if awards are for services provided by such employees and others (see Note 8).

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company's producing properties are all located in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Louisiana, and the oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids production is sold by various operators based on market index prices. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, three operators accounted for 76 and 81 percent, respectively, of revenue. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, three operators accounted for 77 and 87 percent, respectively, of oil and gas revenue receivables. The risk of nonpayment by these purchasers is considered minimal, and the Company does not generally obtain collateral for sales. The Company continually monitors the credit standing of the primary purchasers and assesses the recoverability of the receivables to determine their collectibility. As the receivables are primarily with other entities within the oil and gas industry, such concentration may impact the Company's credit risk, as these entities may be similarly impacted by economic or other changes within the oil and gas industry.

The Company accrues a reserve for the allowance for credit losses based on management's current estimate of expected credit losses that includes historical credit loss experience of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, adjusted for management's current expectation of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The risk of nonpayment is considered minimal; therefore, an allowance for doubtful accounts has not been recorded as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its oil and gas producing activities. Under this method of accounting, costs associated with the acquisition, drilling, and equipping of successful exploratory wells and costs of successful and unsuccessful development wells are capitalized and depleted, net of estimated salvage value, using the units of production on a field-by-field basis based upon proved oil and gas reserves. The Company’s proved oil and gas reserve information was computed by applying the average first day of the month oil and gas price during the 12-month periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Depletion expense associated with proved oil and gas properties for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $7,219,000 and $7,377,000, respectively. Exploration, geological costs, delay rentals, and drilling costs of unsuccessful exploratory wells are charged to expense as incurred.

Costs associated with unevaluated exploratory wells are excluded from the depletable basis until the determination of proved reserves, at which time those costs are reclassified to proved oil and gas properties and subject to depletion. If it is determined that the exploratory well costs were not successful in establishing proved reserves, such costs are expensed at the time of such determination.

The Company reviews its oil and gas properties for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate a decline in the recoverability of their carrying value. The Company estimates the expected future cash flows of its proved oil and gas properties and compares such cash flows to the carrying amount of the proved oil and gas properties to determine if the amount is recoverable. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, the Company will adjust its proved oil and gas properties to estimated fair value. The factors used to estimate fair value include estimates of proved reserves, future commodity prices adjusted for basis differentials, future production estimates, anticipated capital expenditures, and a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with realizing the projected cash flows. The discount rate is a rate that management believes is representative of current market conditions and includes estimates for a risk premium and other operational risks. There were no proved oil and gas property impairments during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Unproved oil and gas properties are assessed at least annually to determine whether they have been impaired by the drilling of dry holes on or near the related acreage or other circumstances that may indicate a decline in value. When unproved property is determined to be impaired, a loss equal to the portion impaired is recognized. If and when leases for unproved properties expire, the costs thereof are removed from the accounts and charged to expense. There were no unproved property impairments during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

10

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Notes to Combined Financial Statements

December 31, 2025 and 2024

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Upon the drilling of successful wells on unproved properties, the Company reclassifies cost basis from unproved to proved properties, at which time that cost basis is subject to depletion.

From time to time, the Company may sell its oil and gas properties. The partial sale of proved properties within an existing field is accounted for as a normal retirement, and no gain or loss on divestiture is recognized as long as this treatment does not significantly affect the units-of-production depletion rate. The partial sale of unproved property is accounted for as a recovery of cost when substantial uncertainty exists as to the ultimate recovery of the cost applicable to the interest retained. A gain on divestiture activity is recognized to the extent that the sale price exceeds the carrying amount of the unproved property. A gain or loss is recognized for all other sales of proved and unproved properties. The Company had no material sales of oil and gas properties during the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company had material sales of proved and unproved oil and gas properties during the year ended December 31, 2024 (see Note 6).

Income Taxes

TRR II and CMP are limited liability companies that are disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, their taxable income or loss is included in the federal income tax return of SJM II, which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, SJM II is not subject to U.S. federal income taxes; rather, its taxable income or loss is allocated to its members, who are responsible for the related income taxes.

Beginning on January 1, 2018, new rules apply to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audits of partnerships. Under these rules, adjustments resulting from an IRS audit may be assessed at the partnership level on behalf of the members. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has no tax years under audit.

Note 3 - Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported at fair value in the financial statements and provide a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value.

Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and other inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves, that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management’s own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques taking into account the characteristics of the asset or liability.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.

The Company's derivative instruments consist of commodity swaps. The Company estimates the fair values of its commodity swaps under the income valuation technique using a discounted cash flow model. The valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, published forward prices, and discount rates, as appropriate. The Company's estimates of the fair value of commodity derivative instruments include consideration of the counterparty's creditworthiness, the Company's creditworthiness, and the time value of money. The consideration of these factors results in an estimated exit price for each derivative asset or liability under a marketplace participant's view. The Company believes that the valuation methods utilized are appropriate and consistent with the fair value standards and with other market participants. All of the significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; therefore, the Company's commodity swap instruments are included within the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.

The financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's policy is to recognize transfers in and/or out of the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the event or change in circumstances caused the transfer.

The Company's financial instruments consist of accounts receivable. The carrying value of accounts receivable approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Note 4 - Derivatives

As discussed in Note 2, SJM II periodically enters into various commodity derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of the effect of natural gas price fluctuations. SJM II and its subsidiaries classify the fair value amounts of derivative assets and liabilities as net current or noncurrent derivative assets or net current or noncurrent derivative liabilities, whichever the case may be, by commodity and counterparty.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $496,781 of gross current commodity derivative assets offset by $135,459 of current liabilities, resulting in a net current commodity derivative asset of $361,322. The Company had $161,428 of gross noncurrent commodity derivative assets offset by $70,991 of noncurrent liabilities, resulting in a net noncurrent commodity derivative asset of $90,437.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $2,133,378 of gross current commodity instrument assets offset by $526,787 of current liabilities, resulting in a net current commodity derivative asset of $1,606,591. The Company had $464,153 of gross noncurrent commodity derivative liabilities, with no assets offsetting the balance.

Due to the volatility of natural gas prices, the estimated fair values of the Company's allocated commodity derivative instruments are subject to large fluctuations from period to period.

The counterparty to the SJM II derivative instruments is East West Bank. The Company and SJM II are not required to post collateral with East West Bank since the Credit Agreement (see Note 5) is collateralized by SJM II's and the Company's oil and gas assets.

Note 5 - Member Debt Guarantee

In July 2018, SJM II entered into a credit agreement with East West Bank (the "Credit Agreement") with a maximum commitment of $75,000,000. The borrowing base is redetermined semiannually, with the borrowing base as of December 31, 2025 set at $100,000,000 and a maximum commitment of $200,000,000. Repayment of borrowings is required in the event that the redetermined borrowing base is less than outstanding borrowings or on the maturity date. During 2024, the maturity date was extended to July 2027. In May 2026, the Credit Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to July 2029. Amounts borrowed bear interest at SOFR or the base rate, as defined, plus a margin ranging from 3.00 to 4.00 percent depending on utilization (7.415 percent at December 31, 2025). Interest is payable monthly.

The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring minimum current, maximum leverage, and minimum interest coverage ratios. As of December 31, 2025, SJM II was in compliance with these financial covenants. The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants, including the limitation of paying distributions to the members of SJM II, the transfer of more than 40 percent of the equity interests in SJM II, and incurring additional indebtedness. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by all mineral interests of SJM II and its subsidiaries, including TRR II and CMP. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding amount borrowed by SJM II under the Credit Agreement was $70,800,000. SJM II is required to enter into and maintain hedge transactions of crude oil and natural gas covering 50 to 90 percent of SJM II's anticipated oil and natural gas production, or anticipated receipt of royalties, from its proved developed producing properties.

In addition, each of the Guarantors (see Note 1) guarantees the amounts owed under the Credit Agreement by SJM II. The Guarantors are not joint and severally liable under the Credit Agreement, and SJM II is the only named borrower under the Credit Agreement. As it is not probable that TRR II and/or CMP will be forced to act upon their guarantees, no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement, along with any associated interest costs, have been allocated to the combined carve-out financial statements of the Company.

In addition, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, SJM II had two interest rate swap derivative instruments, each with $10,000,000 of notional and a maturity date of July 2026 (the "Swaps"). Each of the Swaps had SJM II as the fixed rate payer at 4.45 percent and 3.83 percent, respectively, on the one-month SOFR. As SJM II is the only named counterparty on the Swaps and no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement at the SJM II level have been allocated to either TRR II or CMP as discussed above, no amounts related to the Swaps have been pushed down to these combined carve-out financial statements.

Note 6 - Oil and Gas Property Sales

In September 2024, TRR II sold approximately 20 percent of its mineral rights in its Appalachian oil and gas properties to an unrelated third party for net proceeds of approximately $29,168,000. The transaction closed on September 17, 2024. As part of the sale, TRR II sold $11,431,142 of unproved property, which was accounted for as a recovery of basis, and no gain was recognized. Additionally, TRR II sold $7,038,950 of net proved properties, which resulted in a net gain of $10,698,124. The results of the sold oil and gas properties have not been disclosed separately from continued operations within these financial statements because the sale did not represent a strategic shift in operations for TRR II.

Note 7 - Litigation

The Company is occasionally named a party in lawsuits in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Note 8 - Member's Equity

TRR II was formed in 2017, pursuant to a limited liability company agreement, as amended (the "TRR II Agreement"). The TRR II Agreement provides for the authorization of one class of common interests, in which SJM II is the sole member.

CMP was formed in 2017, pursuant to a limited liability company agreement, as amended (the "CMP Agreement"). The CMP Agreement provides for the authorization of one class of common interests, in which SJM II is the sole member.

Certain employees of SJM II (see Note 9) who provide management and administrative services to the Company were granted management incentive units of SJM II (the "MIUs"). The MIUs entitle the holders to the right to receive distributions from SJM II upon the attainment of specific payout thresholds. MIUs vest upon service conditions or performance conditions related to monetization events. During 2025 and 2024, there were no grants of MIUs. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, approximately 99 percent of authorized MIUs were issued and outstanding, of which approximately 83 percent and 79 percent were contractually vested as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company's allocable share (based on the proportion of revenue and capital expenditures; see Note 1) of grant-date fair value recognized as compensation expenses as a component of general and administrative expenses - related party within the combined statement of operations totaled approximately $260,000 and $219,000, respectively. The proportion of unrecognized compensation cost estimated to be allocable to the Company as of December 31, 2025 was approximately $272,000.

Note 9 - Related Party Transactions

As discussed in Note 1, during 2017, SJM II entered into the MSA with SJM I, an entity with common ownership and common management, whereby shared management services and general overhead of the SJM Entities are allocated based on time incurred. SJM III and SJM IV subsequently became parties to the MSA. The MSA is subject to automatic annual renewals.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred services and shared general overhead, including unit-based compensation, from SJM II of approximately $750,655 and $855,215, respectively, all of which has been included in general and administrative expenses - related party on the accompanying combined statement of operations of the Company.

The Company had miscellaneous general and administrative amounts due (to) from SJM III totaling $(1,165) and $940 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which are included within related party receivables on the accompanying combined balance sheet.

The Company had miscellaneous general and administrative amounts due from SJM I totaling $46,526 and $103,311 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which is included within related party receivables on the accompanying combined balance sheet.

During 2017, SJM I and SJM II entered into an agreement whereby SJM I and the Company's prospective mineral acquisitions shall be restricted to (1) certain counties within Pennsylvania or within two miles of existing company mineral interests and (2) amounts less than $2.0 million. Furthermore, SJM I and the Company may offer SJM II the right to participate in mineral interest acquisitions.

Note 10 - Subsequent Events

In June 2026, SJM II entered into a new interest rate swap agreement, with an effective date of July 2026, with $20,000,000 of notional and a maturity date of July 2028. Under this agreement, SJM II is the fixed rate payer at 3.99 percent and receives the one-month SOFR.

In August 2026, TRR II and CMP entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell certain oil and gas properties of TRR II and all of the oil and gas properties of CMP for a purchase price of $105,000,000 (the "Transaction"). As of the date these financial statements were available to be issued, the Transaction had not closed. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will eventually close.

The Company has evaluated all subsequent events up through and including September 11, 2026, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

Oil and Natural Gas Reserve Quantities

The estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves and discounted future net cash flows for the Company's oil and gas properties as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were prepared using historical data and other information by qualified petroleum engineers engaged by the Company. Users of this information should be aware that the process of estimating quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves is complex, requiring significant subjective decisions to be made in the evaluation of geologic, engineering, and economic data for each reservoir. The data for any given reservoir may also change substantially over time as a result of numerous factors, including, but not limited to, additional development activity, production history, and continual reassessment of the viability of production under varying economic conditions. As a result, revisions to existing reserve estimates may occur from time to time.

The estimated proved net recoverable reserves presented below include only those quantities of oil and natural gas that geologic and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future periods from known reservoirs under existing economic, operating, and regulatory practices. In accordance with the SEC's guidelines, estimates of proved reserves from which present values are derived were based on the unweighted 12-month average price of the first day of the month price for the period and held constant. Proved developed reserves represent only those reserves estimated to be recovered through existing wells. When and if the Company has insight into the development plans for each of the operators in which the Company holds royalty interests, the Company will recognize proved undeveloped reserves. All of the oil and gas reserves set forth herein are in the United States and are proved reserves.

The estimated rounded quantities of proved developed oil and natural gas reserves and changes in net proved reserves are summarized below for the year ended December 31, 2025:

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's total extensions of 6,587 MMcfe resulted primarily from the drilling of 139 new gross wells (0.354 net wells). The Company's upward revisions of previous estimated quantities of 2,443 MMcfe were primarily attributable to higher natural gas prices.

Supplemental Information (Unaudited)

December 31, 2025 and 2024

Supplemental Oil and Gas Information (Unaudited) (Continued)

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company divested 12,974 MMcfe of reserves through the sale of a 20 percent interest in certain assets comprising 1,343 gross wells, and acquired 0.5 MMcfe of reserves. The Company's total extensions of 18,850 MMcfe resulting primarily from the drilling of 230 new gross wells (0.826 net wells). The Company's upward revisions of previous estimated quantities of 5,700 MMcfe were primarily attributable to increases in the Company's ownership interests in certain wells due to unit modifications and other reserve quantity revisions.

Standardized Measure

A standardized measure of future net cash flows and changes therein relating to estimated proved reserves is computed in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance. The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure are those prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the SEC. These assumptions do not necessarily reflect expectations of actual revenue to be derived from those reserves nor their present value amount. The limitations inherent in the reserve quantity estimation process, as discussed previously, are equally applicable to the standardized measure computations since these reserve quantity estimates are the basis for the valuation process.

Future cash inflows are determined by applying prices and costs, including transportation, quantity, and basis differentials, to the year-end estimated future reserve quantities. The following prices, as adjusted for transportation, quality, and basis differentials, were used in the calculation of the standardized measure:

2025

2024

Oil (per Bbl)

$

53.09

$

69.95

Gas (per Mcf)

2.86

1.62

Liquids (per Bbl)

17.76

24.03

Future operating costs are determined based on estimates of expenditures to be incurred in producing the proved reserves in place at the end of the period using year-end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. The standardized measure presented here does not include the effects of federal income taxes, as the Company is taxed as a partnership and not subject to federal or state income taxes. The resulting future net cash flows are reduced to present value amounts by applying a 10 percent annual discount factor.

The standard measure of discounted net cash flows related to the Company's proved oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 is as follows:

Independent Auditor’s Review Report

To the Member

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and

Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Results of Reviews of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying combined financial statements of Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC (collectively, the “Company”), which comprise the combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2026 and the related combined statements of operations, member’s equity, and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and the related notes to the combined financial statements.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Review Results

We conducted our reviews in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) applicable to reviews of interim financial information. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. A review of interim financial information is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS, the objective of which is an expression of an opinion regarding the financial information as a whole, and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our reviews. We believe that the results of the review procedures provide a reasonable basis for our conclusion.

Emphasis of Matter

We draw attention to Note 2, which describes the basis of presentation of the accompanying combined carve-out financial statements. These combined carve-out financial statements have been derived from the historical accounting records of San Jacinto Minerals II, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries and reflect the revenue and costs as well as assets and liabilities directly associated with the Company, as well as allocations of other amounts. Our conclusion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Responsibilities of Management for the Interim Financial Information

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of interim financial information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC and Cypress Mineral Partners, LLC

Notes to Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2026 and 2025

Note 1 - Nature of Business

Three Rivers Royalty II, LLC (TRR II), a Colorado limited liability company, was formed on April 4, 2017 for the purpose of managing and acquiring mineral and royalty assets for lease and royalty revenue. TRR II owns oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in the Appalachian basin in Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

Cypress Minerals Partners, LLC (CMP), a Louisiana limited liability company, was formed on March 23, 2017 for the purpose of managing and acquiring mineral and royalty assets for lease and royalty revenue. CMP owns oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in the Haynesville basin in Louisiana.

TRR II and CMP are collectively referred to herein as the "Company."

TRR II and CMP are wholly owned subsidiaries of San Jacinto Minerals II, LLC (SJM II).

SJM II and its affiliated entities, San Jacinto Minerals, LLC (SJM I); San Jacinto Minerals III, LLC (SJM III); and San Jacinto Minerals IV, LLC (SJM IV) (collectively, the "SJM Entities") share common ownership and common management. Under a management services agreement between SJM II and the other SJM Entities (the "MSA"), SJM II is the named employer of those individuals providing services to the SJM Entities. Labor and other shared expenses are allocated amongst the SJM Entities based on the hours spent of such personnel (see Note 8). Direct costs of each of the individual SJM Entities are recorded based on the actual amounts incurred and recorded to the specific entity for which it relates. In addition to allocating the costs amongst the SJM entities, costs allocable to SJM II are allocated amongst TRR II, CMP, and the other wholly owned subsidiaries of SJM II: Bluebird Energy Partners, LLC (BEP); Old River Royalty, LLC (ORR); and 1836 Mineral Company, LLC (1836), based on their respective proportion of revenue and capital expenditures. In addition, TRR II, CMP, BEP, and 1836 are all guarantors (the "Guarantors") under the SJM II Credit Agreement (see Note 5).

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The combined carve-out financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and are presented on a combined basis, which includes the accounts of the commonly controlled and managed entities of TRR II and CMP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in combination.

TRR II and CMP have historically operated as part of SJM II and not as stand-alone companies. The accompanying combined carve-out financial statements represent the historical operations of TRR II and CMP and have been derived from SJM II’s historical accounting records. All revenue and costs and assets and liabilities directly associated with TRR II and CMP are included in the combined carve-out financial statements. The combined carve-out financial statements also include allocations of certain general and administrative expenses, including unit-based compensation expense, from SJM II. However, amounts recognized by TRR II and CMP are not necessarily representative of the amounts that would have been reflected in the financial statements had TRR II and/or CMP been operated independently of SJM II. Related party allocations are discussed further in Notes 1, 2, 5, 7, and 8.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization (DD&A) and impairment of proved oil and gas properties are determined using estimates of proved oil and gas reserves. There are numerous uncertainties in estimating the quantity of reserves and in projecting the future rates of production and timing of development expenditures. Oil and gas reserve engineering must be recognized as a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and gas that cannot be measured in an exact way. The recoverability of unproved oil and gas properties, the estimated fair value of commodity derivatives allocable to the Company, and the allocation of certain expenses not specifically identifiable to the Company's revenue-producing activities are also subject to estimation. As a royalty owner, the Company is not responsible for any reclamation costs.

June 30, 2026 and 2025

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Cash

The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. As of and during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, cash balances were primarily held by one financial institution.

Commodity Derivative Instruments

SJM II and its subsidiaries use commodity derivative instruments to provide a measure of stability to their cash flows in an environment of volatile oil and gas prices and to manage their exposure to oil and gas price volatility. All commodity derivative instruments are initially, and subsequently, measured at estimated fair value and recorded as assets or liabilities on the combined balance sheet.

SJM II is the named counterparty to the commodity derivative contracts pertaining to the Company's natural gas production and natural gas volumes. As these commodity derivative instruments relate to the Company's natural gas volumes, the fair values, and the related realized and unrealized gains/losses attributable thereto, have been pushed down to these combined financial statements for each of the years presented.

SJM II allocates realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with commodity derivative instruments to the Company based on TRR II and CMP's proportionate share of the total monthly production volumes for SJM II.

SJM II and the Company have elected not to designate commodity derivative instruments as cash flow hedges. For commodity derivative instruments that do not qualify as cash flow hedges, changes in the estimated fair value of the contracts are recorded as gains and losses in the combined statement of operations. When commodity derivative instruments are settled, SJM II and the Company recognize realized gains and losses in the combined statement of operations. Derivative cash flows are reported as cash flows from operating activities in the combined statement of cash flows (see Note 4).

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenue is primarily derived from the sale of its produced oil and natural gas from wells in which the Company has nonoperated royalty interests.

The Company's produced oil and natural gas is produced and sold in the Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Louisiana geographic areas. Oil sales for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $785,342 and $360,813, respectively. Natural gas sales for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $14,015,196 and $15,432,696, respectively. Natural gas liquids sales for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $3,461,171 and $3,419,539, respectively. Accounts receivable from royalty revenue were $3,946,545 as of January 1, 2025.

The sales of produced oil and natural gas are made under contracts that the operators of the wells have negotiated with customers, which typically include variable consideration based on monthly pricing tied to local indices and volumes delivered. While revenue is typically recorded at the point in time when control of the produced oil and natural gas transfers to the customer, statements and payment may not be received via the operator of the wells for one to three months after the date the produced oil and natural gas are delivered, and, as a result, the amount of production delivered to the customer and the price that will be received for the sale of the product are estimated utilizing production reports, market indices, and estimated differentials. Estimated revenue due to the Company is recorded within accounts receivable in the accompanying combined balance sheet until payment is received. Differences between the estimated amounts and the actual amounts received from the sale of the produced oil and natural gas are recorded when known, which is generally when statements and payment are received.

The Company utilizes the practical expedient in ASC 606, which states the Company is not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation. As the Company has determined that each unit of product generally represents a separate performance obligation, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations is not required.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2026 and 2025

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

The Company also derives revenue from mineral lease bonuses. The Company generates lease bonus revenue by leasing its mineral interests to exploration and production companies. The lease agreements generally transfer the rights to any oil or natural gas discovered, grant the Company a right to a specified royalty interest, and require that drilling and completion operations commence within a specified time period, or the lease will expire. The Company recognizes such lease bonus revenue once the lease agreement has been executed, payment is received, and the Company has no further obligation to refund the payment.

Given that the Company does not recognize lease bonus income until a lease agreement has been executed, at which point its performance obligation has been satisfied, and payment is received, the Company does not record revenue for unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations as of the end of the reporting period.

Unit-based Compensation

The Company follows authoritative guidance that applies to unit-based awards, which requires entities to recognize compensation expense for awards issued to employees and others. Authoritative guidance also requires unit-based awards to employees and others by a related party or other holder of an economic interest in the entity to be accounted for as unit-based transactions if awards are for services provided by such employees and others (see Note 7).

Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Suppliers

The Company's producing properties are all located in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Louisiana, and the oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids production is sold by various operators based on market index prices. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, three operators accounted for 83 and 75 percent, respectively, of revenue. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, three operators accounted for 93 and 77 percent, respectively, of oil and gas revenue receivables. The risk of nonpayment by these purchasers is considered minimal, and the Company does not generally obtain collateral for sales. The Company continually monitors the credit standing of the primary purchasers and assesses the recoverability of the receivables to determine their collectibility. As the receivables are primarily with other entities within the oil and gas industry, such concentration may impact the Company's credit risk, as these entities may be similarly impacted by economic or other changes within the oil and gas industry.

The Company accrues a reserve for the allowance for credit losses based on management's current estimate of expected credit losses that includes historical credit loss experience of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, adjusted for management's current expectation of current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The risk of nonpayment is considered minimal; therefore, an allowance for doubtful accounts has not been recorded as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas activities. Under this method of accounting, costs associated with the acquisition, drilling, and equipping of successful exploratory wells and costs of successful and unsuccessful development wells are capitalized and depleted, net of estimated salvages values, using the units-of-production on a field-by-field basis based upon proved oil and gas reserves. The Company’s proved oil and gas reserve information was computed by applying the average first-day-of-the-month oil and gas price during the 12-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Depletion expense for the 6-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $3,442,221 and $3,745,627, respectively. Exploration, geological costs, delay rentals, and drilling costs of unsuccessful exploratory wells are charged to expense as incurred.

Costs associated with unevaluated exploratory wells are excluded from the depletable basis until the determination of proved reserves, at which time those costs are reclassified to proved oil and gas properties and subject to depletion. If it is determined that the exploratory well costs were not successful in establishing proved reserves, such costs are expensed at the time of such determination.

The Company reviews its oil and gas properties for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate a decline in the recoverability of their carrying value. The Company estimates the expected future cash flows of its proved oil and gas properties and compares such cash flows to the carrying amount of the proved oil and gas properties to determine if the amount is recoverable. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, the Company will adjust its proved oil and gas properties to estimated fair value. The factors used to estimate fair value include estimates of proved reserves, future commodity prices adjusted for basis differentials, future production estimates, anticipated capital expenditures, and a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with realizing the projected cash flows. The discount rate is a rate that management believes is representative of current market conditions and includes estimates for a risk premium and other operational risks. There were no proved oil and gas property impairments during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2026 and 2025

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Unproved oil and gas properties are assessed at least annually to determine whether they have been impaired by the drilling of dry holes on or near the related acreage or other circumstances that may indicate a decline in value. When unproved property is determined to be impaired, a loss equal to the portion impaired is recognized. When leases for unproved properties expire, the costs thereof are removed from the accounts and charged to expense. There were no unproved property impairments during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Upon the drilling of successful wells on unproved properties, the Company reclassifies cost basis from unproved to proved properties, at which time that cost basis is subject to depletion.

From time to time, the Company may sell its oil and gas properties. The partial sale of proved properties within an existing field is accounted for as a normal retirement, and no gain or loss on divestiture is recognized as long as this treatment does not significantly affect the units-of-production depletion rate. The partial sale of unproved property is accounted for as a recovery of cost when substantial uncertainty exists as to the ultimate recovery of the cost applicable to the interest retained. A gain on divestiture activity is recognized to the extent that the sales price exceeds the carrying amount of the unproved property. A gain or loss is recognized for all other sales of proved and unproved properties. The Company had no material sales of oil and gas properties during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Income Taxes

TRR II and CMP are limited liability companies that are disregarded entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, their taxable income or loss is included in the federal income tax return of SJM II, which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, SJM II is not subject to U.S. federal income taxes; rather, its taxable income or loss is allocated to its members, who are responsible for the related income taxes.

Beginning on January 1, 2018, new rules apply to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audits of partnerships. Under these rules, adjustments resulting from an IRS audit may be assessed at the partnership level on behalf of the members. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has no tax years under audit.

Note 3 - Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported at fair value in the financial statements and provide a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value.

Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access.

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets and other inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves, that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management’s own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques taking into account the characteristics of the asset.

In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset.

The Company's derivative instruments consist of commodity swaps. The Company estimates the fair values of its commodity swaps under the income valuation technique using a discounted cash flow model. The valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, published forward prices, and discount rates, as appropriate. The Company's estimates of the fair value of commodity derivative instruments include consideration of the counterparty's creditworthiness, the Company's creditworthiness, and the time value of money. The consideration of these factors results in an estimated exit price for each derivative asset or liability under a marketplace participant's view. The Company believes that the valuation methods utilized are appropriate and consistent with the fair value standards and with other market participants. All of the significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; therefore, the Company's commodity swap instruments are included within the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.

The financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's policy is to recognize transfers in and/or out of the fair value hierarchy as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the event or change in circumstances caused the transfer.

The Company's financial instruments consist of accounts receivable. The carrying value of accounts receivable approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Note 4 - Derivatives

As discussed in Note 2, SJM II periodically enters into various commodity derivative instruments to mitigate a portion of the effect of natural gas price fluctuations. SJM II and the Company classify the fair value amounts of derivative assets and liabilities as net current or noncurrent derivative assets or net current or noncurrent derivative liabilities, whichever the case may be, by commodity and counterparty.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $1,722,089 of gross current commodity derivative assets with no offsetting current liabilities. The Company had $776,824 of gross noncurrent commodity derivative assets, with no offsetting noncurrent liabilities.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $496,781 of gross current commodity derivative assets offset by $135,459 of current liabilities, resulting in a net current commodity derivative asset of $361,322. The Company had $161,428 of gross noncurrent commodity derivative assets offset by $70,991 of noncurrent liabilities, resulting in a net noncurrent commodity derivative asset of $90,437.

Due to the volatility of natural gas prices, the estimated fair value of the Company's allocated commodity derivative instruments are subject to large fluctuations from period to period.

The counterparty to the SJM II derivative instruments is East West Bank. The Company and SJM II are not required to post collateral with East West Bank since the Credit Agreement (see Note 5) is collateralized by SJM II's and the Company's oil and gas assets.

Note 5 - Member Debt Guarantee

In July 2018, SJM II entered into a credit agreement with East West Bank (the "Credit Agreement") with a maximum commitment of $75,000,000. The borrowing base is redetermined semiannually, with the borrowing base as of June 30, 2026 set at $90,000,000 and a maximum commitment of $200,000,000. Repayment of borrowings is required in the event that the redetermined borrowing base is less than outstanding borrowings or on the maturity date. During 2024, the maturity date was extended to July 2027. In May 2026, the Credit Agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to July 2029. Amounts borrowed bear interest at SOFR or the base rate, as defined, plus a margin ranging from 3.00 to 4.00 percent depending on utilization (7.72 percent at June 30, 2026). Interest is payable monthly.

The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring minimum current, maximum leverage, and minimum interest coverage ratios. As of June 30, 2026, SJM II was in compliance with these financial covenants. The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants, including the limitation of paying distributions to the members of SJM II, the transfer of more than 40 percent of the equity interests in SJM II, and incurring additional indebtedness. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by all mineral interests of SJM II and its subsidiaries, including TRR II and CMP. As of June 30, 2026, the outstanding amount borrowed by SJM II under the Credit Agreement was $72,800,000. SJM II is required to enter into and maintain hedge transactions of crude oil and natural gas covering 50 to 90 percent of SJM II's anticipated oil and natural gas production, or anticipated receipt of royalties, from its proved developed producing properties.

In addition, each of the Guarantors (see Note 1) guarantees the amounts owed under the Credit Agreement by SJM II. The Guarantors are not joint and severally liable under the Credit Agreement, and SJM II is the only named borrower under the Credit Agreement. As it is not probable that TRR II and/or CMP will be forced to act upon their guarantees, no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement, along with any associated interest costs, have been allocated to the combined carve-out financial statements of the Company.

In addition, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, SJM II had two interest rate swap derivative instruments, each with $10,000,000 of notional and a maturity date of July 2026 (the "Swaps"). Each of the Swaps had SJM II as the fixed rate payer at 4.45 percent and 3.83 percent, respectively, on the one-month SOFR. As SJM II is the only named counterparty on the Swaps and no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement at the SJM II level have been allocated to either TRR II or CMP as discussed above, no amounts related to the Swaps have been pushed down to these combined carve-out financial statements.

Note 6 - Litigation

The Company is occasionally named a party in lawsuits in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Note 7 - Member's Equity

TRR II was formed in 2017, pursuant to a limited liability company agreement, as amended (the "TRR II Agreement"). The TRR II Agreement provides for the authorization of one class of common interests, in which SJM II is the sole member.

Cypress Mineral Partners was formed in 2017, pursuant to a limited liability company agreement, as amended (the "CMP Agreement"). The CMP Agreement provides for the authorization of one class of common interests, in which SJM II is the sole member.

June 30, 2026 and 2025

Note 7 - Member's Equity (Continued)

Certain employees of SJM II (see Note 8) who provide management and administrative services to the Company were granted management incentive units of SJM II (the "MIUs"). The MIUs entitle the holders to the right to receive distributions from SJM II upon the attainment of specific payout thresholds. MIUs vest upon service conditions or performance conditions related to monetization events. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no grants of MIUs. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, approximately 99 percent of authorized MIUs were issued and outstanding, of which approximately 83 percent were contractually vested. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company's allocable share (based on the proportion of revenue and capital expenditures; see Note 1) of grant-date fair value recognized as compensation expenses as a component of general and administrative expenses - related party within the combined statement of operations totaled approximately $7,000 and $130,000, respectively. The proportion of unrecognized compensation cost estimated to be allocable to the Company as of June 30, 2026 was approximately $265,000.

Note 8 - Related Party Transactions

The following is a description of transactions between the Company and related parties:

Management Fees

As discussed in Note 1, during 2017, SJM II entered into the MSA with SJM I, an entity with common ownership and common management, whereby shared management services and general overhead of the SJM Entities are allocated based on time incurred. SJM III and SJM IV subsequently became parties to the MSA. The MSA is subject to automatic annual renewals.

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred services and shared general overhead, including unit-based compensation, from SJM II of approximately $264,000 and $352,000, respectively, all of which has been included in general and administrative expenses - related party on the accompanying combined statement of operations of the Company. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had a payable due to SJM II totaling approximately $9,343 and $0, respectively, which has also been recorded on the Company's accompanying combined balance sheet.

There were no amounts due to/from SJM I, SJM III, or SJM IV as of June 30, 2026. The Company had miscellaneous general and administrative amounts due to SJM III totaling $1,165 as of December 31, 2025, which is included within related party receivables on the accompanying combined balance sheet.

Additionally, the Company had miscellaneous general and administrative amounts due from SJM I totaling $46,526 as of December 31, 2025, which are included within related party receivables on the accompanying combined balance sheet.

During 2017, SJM I and SJM II entered into an agreement whereby SJM I and the Company's prospective mineral acquisitions shall be restricted to (1) certain counties within Pennsylvania or within two miles of existing company mineral interests and (2) amounts less than $2.0 million. Furthermore, SJM I and the Company may offer SJM II the right to participate in mineral interest acquisitions.

Note 9 - Subsequent Events

In June 2026, SJM II entered into a new interest rate swap agreement, with an effective date of July 2026, with $20,000,000 of notional and a maturity date of July 2028. Under this agreement, SJM II is the fixed rate payer at 3.99 percent and receives the one-month SOFR.

In August 2026, TRR II and CMP entered into a purchase and sale agreement to sell certain oil and gas properties of TRR II and all of the oil and gas properties of CMP for a purchase price of $105,000,000 (the "Transaction"). As of the date these financial statements were available to be issued, the Transaction had not closed. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will eventually close.

The Company has evaluated all subsequent events up through and including September 11, 2026, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial statements (the “pro forma financial statements”) present the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company, the historical financial statements of PHX and the historical carve-out financial statements of the SJM II Sellers, adjusted to give effect to the PHX Acquisition, the SJM II Acquisition and the related financing thereof and the Transactions. Additionally, the pro forma financial statements include adjustments associated with the Three Rivers Acquisition completed by WhiteHawk prior to the PHX Acquisition. On March 31, 2025, the Company purchased mineral and royalty interests in the Marcellus Shale from the TRR Seller. On June 23, 2025, WH Acquisition Corp. and Merger Sub closed on the PHX Merger Agreement and WH Acquisition Corp. fully acquired all of PHX, with PHX continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the SJM II Acquisition, the Company, through certain of its subsidiaries, will acquire the SJM II Assets from the SJM II Sellers for an aggregate purchase price of $105.0 million, subject to customary adjustments.

The financing related to the SJM II Acquisition consists of the issuance of shares of Series E Preferred Stock for aggregate proceeds of up to $50.0 million pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letters entered into on August 12, 2026 with certain investors, including Daniel Herz, our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and the issuance of shares of Series A Common Stock for aggregate proceeds of $75.0 million pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement entered into on September 16, 2026 ("Securities Purchase Agreement Financing"). See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Series E Preferred Stock Financing.”

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet gives effect to the SJM II Acquisition and the related financing thereof as if they had occurred on June 30, 2026. The PHX Acquisition, the Three Rivers Acquisition and the Transactions are reflected in the historical consolidated balance sheet of WhiteHawk as of June 30, 2026, and, as such, no pro forma adjustments are made for such transactions in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 gives effect to the PHX Acquisition, the Three Rivers Acquisition, the SJM II Acquisition and the Transactions as if each had occurred on January 1, 2025 (the “assumed date”). The pro forma financial statements contain certain reclassification adjustments to (i) conform the historical PHX financial statement presentation and the historical carve-out financial statement presentation of the SJM II Sellers to the Company’s financial statement presentation and (ii) conform certain of the Company’s historical amounts to PHX’s financial statement presentation. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 gives effect to the SJM II Acquisition and the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2025.

The unaudited pro forma financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S‑X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786, “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses,” using assumptions set forth in the notes to the unaudited pro forma financial statements. The pro forma financial statements have been adjusted to include transaction accounting adjustments in accordance with GAAP, linking the effects of the PHX Acquisition, the Three Rivers Acquisition, the SJM II Acquisition and the Transactions and the adjustments to the PHX historical financial statements, the TRR Seller consolidated carve-out financial statement presentation and the SJM II Sellers carve-out financial statement presentation to the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company has finalized purchase accounting for the PHX and TRR Seller acquisitions and conformed their accounting policies to those of the Company, and the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the final purchase price allocations recorded in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, with only transaction accounting adjustments presented. The Company has not finalized purchase accounting for the SJM II Acquisition, and the pro forma adjustments related to the SJM II Acquisition are based on preliminary estimates of the fair values of the assets to be acquired and the liabilities to be assumed, which are subject to change upon completion of the final purchase price allocation. The Company expects to account for the SJM II Acquisition as an asset acquisition in accordance with GAAP. The pro forma financial statements and related notes are presented for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as an indication of the financial condition or the operating results that the Company would have achieved if the PHX Acquisition, the Three Rivers Acquisition, the SJM II Acquisition and the Transactions had taken place on the assumed date.

The pro forma financial statements do not reflect future events that may have occurred after the consummation of the PHX Acquisition, the Three Rivers Acquisition, the SJM II Acquisition and the Transactions, including, but not limited to, the anticipated realization of ongoing savings from potential operating efficiencies, asset dispositions, cost savings or economies of scale that may be achieved with respect to the combined operations. In addition, the consummation of the SJM II Acquisition remains subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, and the SJM II Acquisition may not be consummated on the terms, or within the time period, reflected in the pro forma financial statements. As a result, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the pro forma financial statements and should not be relied on as an indication of the Company’s post-combination future results.

Notes to unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial statements

1. Basis of Presentation, the Offering and Reorganization

The pro forma financial statements have been derived from the historical financial statements of WhiteHawk (in the case of financial information as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025 as restated in the Restatement). The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet gives effect to the SJM II Acquisition as if it had occurred on June 30, 2026. The PHX Acquisition, Three Rivers Royalty Acquisition, and the Transactions are reflected in the historical consolidated balance sheet of WhiteHawk as of June 30, 2026, and, as such no pro forma adjustments are made for such transactions in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 gives effect to the PHX Acquisition, the Three Rivers Royalty Acquisition, the SJM II Acquisition and the Transactions as if each had occurred on January 1, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 gives effect to the Transactions and SJM II Acquisition as if each had occurred on January 1, 2025. The pro forma financial statements reflect pro forma adjustments that are based on available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable. However, actual results may differ from those reflected in these statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments known to date that are necessary to present fairly the pro forma information have been made. The pro forma financial statements do not purport to represent what WhiteHawk’s post-combination financial position or results of operations would have been if the transactions had actually occurred on the dates indicated above, nor are they indicative of the Company’s post-combination future financial position or results of operations. These pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements, and related notes thereto, of WhiteHawk, PHX, SJM II, and TRR for the periods presented, which are included or incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

2. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Combined Balance Sheet

SJM II Acquisition Adjustments

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2026 reflects the historical consolidated balance sheet of WhiteHawk, which already includes the effects of the PHX Acquisition, Three Rivers Royalty Acquisition, and the Transactions. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments are presented for these transactions in the balance sheet. Transaction accounting adjustments related to the SJM II Acquisition are described further below:

A. Reflects the adjustment for proceeds raised in Series E Preferred Stock Financing, net of fees.

B. Reflects the adjustment for proceeds raised under the Securities Purchase Agreement Financing, net of fees.

C. Reflects the aggregate purchase price of $107.9 million cash paid at closing (inclusive of an estimate of $2.9 million in transaction related fees) for the SJM II Assets in the SJM II Acquisition. The Company expects to account for the SJM II Acquisition as an asset acquisition in accordance with GAAP. The preliminary purchase price noted above will be allocated to the assets acquired, which consists of oil and gas properties.

The management fee expenses represent the charge for managing the Company and did not include general and administrative expenses related to operating the business. While a pro forma adjustment has not been made to eliminate the management fees, the Company will no longer incur any management fees after completion of the Transaction.

Exhibit 99.4

WhiteHawk Minerals Corp. Announces Closing of $111.8 Million of Acquisitions and Related Financings; Revolving Credit Facility Borrowing Base Increased to $175.0 Million

PHILADELPHIA—September 25, 2026—(BUSINESS WIRE)-- WhiteHawk Minerals Corp. (NYSE: WHK) (“WhiteHawk” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of approximately $111.8 million of acquisitions (the “Acquisitions”), including the approximately $105.0 million purchase of Marcellus, Utica and Haynesville Shale natural gas mineral and royalty assets from San Jacinto Minerals II (“SJM II”), previously announced on August 12, 2026. The Acquisitions were funded with proceeds from a $50.0 million issuance of shares of our newly created Series E Preferred Stock, which closed on September 23, 2026, and the previously announced $75.0 million private placement of our Class A common stock, which closed on September 21, 2026. In connection with the closing of the Acquisitions, the Company also completed its fall redetermination of its reserve-based revolving credit facility with an increase to $175.0 million in borrowing capacity, which remains fully undrawn.

Acquisition Closing Summary

The Acquisitions, including SJM II’s Appalachia and Haynesville assets, cover approximately 700,000 gross unit acres and 11,810 net royalty acres (normalized to 1/8th) at an average net revenue interest of 0.21%, including more than 1,700 producing wells, 245 wells in process and permits, and 2,500 undeveloped locations. The Appalachia interests span approximately 600,000 gross unit acres anchored by EQT Corporation (NYSE: EQT), Range Resources Corporation (NYSE: RRC), CNX Resources Corporation (NYSE: CNX) and Antero Resources Corporation (NYSE: AR), and the Haynesville interests span approximately 100,000 gross unit acres anchored by Expand Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: EXE), Apex Energy LLC and Adamas Energy LLC.

Management Commentary

“The closing of the Acquisitions and related equity financings reflects our continued execution of WhiteHawk’s business strategy, and deepens our exposure to the core of Appalachia and the Haynesville under the basins’ leading operators,” said Daniel Herz, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of WhiteHawk. “Along with the Acquisitions, increasing our borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility to $175.0 million, which remains fully undrawn, gives us significant liquidity and flexibility to continue pursuing disciplined, accretive growth while maintaining our low-leverage profile.”
