SUMMIT MIDSTREAM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Background
The unaudited pro forma financial information included herein is intended to present the expected impact and scope of change of certain transactions, identified below, to the historical financial position and results of operations of Summit Midstream Corporation (the “Company”).
Corporate Reorganization. As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company undertook a corporate reorganization (the “Corporate Reorganization”) on August 1, 2024 whereby it became the new holding company of Summit Midstream Partners, LP (the “Partnership”), a Delaware master limited partnership. The Corporate Reorganization was accounted for as a common-control transaction between the Partnership and the Company as a result of the Partnership’s unitholders controlling both the Partnership and the Company before and after the Corporate Reorganization. In the case of this common-control transaction, the historical financial statements of the Partnership became the historical financial statements of the Company, except for certain changes that conform the Partnership’s historical financial statements to a corporate entity.
As a result of the Corporate Reorganization, periods prior to August 1, 2024 reflect the Company as a limited partnership, not a corporation. References to common units for periods prior to the Corporate Reorganization refer to common units of the Partnership, and references to common stock for periods following the Corporate Reorganization refer to shares of common stock of the Company. The primary financial impacts of the Corporate Reorganization to the consolidated financial statements were (i) reclassification of the partnership capital accounts to equity accounts reflective of a corporation, (ii) an update of certain limited partner terms to synonymous corporate entity terms, and (iii) income tax effects. The Corporate Reorganization had no impact to historical revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, or cash flows.
Divestitures. Summit Utica Sale. On March 22, 2024, the Company completed the disposition of Summit Utica, LLC (“Summit Utica”) to a subsidiary of MPLX LP for a cash sale price of $625.0 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments (the “Utica Sale”). Summit Utica was the owner of (i) approximately 36% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Ohio Gathering Company, L.L.C. (“OGC”), (ii) approximately 38% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Ohio Condensate Company, L.L.C. (together with OGC, “Ohio Gathering”) and (iii) midstream assets located in the Utica Shale. Ohio Gathering was the owner of a natural gas gathering system and condensate stabilization facility located in Belmont and Monroe counties in the Utica Shale in southeastern Ohio.
Mountaineer Midstream System. On May 1, 2024, the Company completed the sale of Mountaineer Midstream Company, LLC (“Mountaineer Midstream”), to Antero Midstream LLC for a cash sale price of $70.0 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments (the “Mountaineer Transaction”). Mountaineer Midstream was the owner of midstream assets located in the Marcellus Shale. Prior to closing the Mountaineer Transaction, the Company sold related compression assets located in the Marcellus Shale to a compression service provider for cash consideration of approximately $5 million in April 2024 (collectively with the Utica Sale and the Mountaineer Transaction, the “Divestitures”).
Refinancing Transactions. The Company completed a series of transactions in 2024 and early 2025 to refinance the Company’s existing indebtedness, which included (i) the March 2024 tender offer of the Company’s 8.500% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Secured Notes,” and such offer, the “Excess Cash Flow Offer”) that resulted in the repurchase and cancellation of $13.6 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Secured Notes in April 2024, (ii) the May 2024 tender offer of the Company’s 2026 Secured Notes (the “Asset Sale Offer”) that resulted in the repurchase and cancellation of $6.9 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Secured Notes in June 2024, (iii) the July 2024 issuance of $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2029 (the “Initial 2029 Secured Notes”), (iv) the June 2024 redemption of all $209.5 million of the Company’s 12.00% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Unsecured Notes Redemption”), (v) the July 2024 redemption of all $49.8 million of the Company’s 5.75% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes Redemption”) that was completed in August 2024, (vi) the July 2024 tender offer and redemption of the Company’s 2026 Secured Notes (the “2026 Secured Notes Tender Offer”) that resulted in the full payment and discharge of the 2026 Secured Notes by effecting a $649.8 million settlement in July 2024 and a $114.7 million settlement in October 2024, and (vii) the January 10, 2025 issuance of $250.0 million of additional 8.625% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2029 (collectively with the Excess Cash Flow Offer, the Asset Sale Offer, the issuance of Initial 2029 Secured Notes, the 2026 Unsecured Notes Redemption, the 2025 Notes Redemption and the 2026 Secured Notes Tender Offer, the “Refinancing Transactions”).

Tall Oak Acquisition. The board of directors of the Company unanimously approved the business contribution agreement (the “Business Contribution Agreement”) with Tall Oak Midstream Holdings, LLC (“Tall Oak”) whereby Tall Oak agreed to contribute to the Company all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Tall Oak Midstream Operating, LLC for total consideration equal to $425.0 million (the “Tall Oak Acquisition”). Total consideration consisted of (i) a $155.0 million cash payment, (ii) cash earn-out payments of up to $25.0 million dependent upon performance of the business and (iii) the issuance of 7,471,008 million shares of Class B common stock of the Company and 7,471,008 common units representing limited partner interest of the Partnership, that are exchangeable into an equivalent quantity of the Company common stock on a 1:1 exchange ratio. On December 2, 2024, the Company consummated the transaction contemplated in the Business Contribution Agreement.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations
The previously discussed Corporate Reorganization was accounted for as a common-control transaction between the Partnership and the Company as a result of the Partnership’s unitholders controlling both the Partnership and the Company before and after the Corporate Reorganization. As a result of the Corporate Reorganization, periods prior to August 1, 2024 reflect Summit Midstream as a limited partnership, not a corporation. References to common units for periods prior to the Corporate Reorganization refer to common units of the Partnership, and references to common stock for periods following the Corporate Reorganization refer to shares of common stock of the Company. The primary financial impacts of the Corporate Reorganization to the consolidated financial statements were (i) reclassification of the partnership capital accounts to equity accounts reflective of a corporation, (ii) an update of certain limited partner terms to synonymous corporate entity terms and (ii) income tax effects. The Corporate Reorganization had no impact to historical revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, or cash flows.
