Analysis · DEC · Energy & Transportation
This amendment offers the first glimpse into the reserves backing the April 2026 Sheridan acquisition. Unaudited figures show proved reserves of 340 Bcf of natural gas, 17.8 MMBbl of NGLs, and 5.2 MMBbl of oil, carrying a standardized measure of $344.2 million. Meanwhile, the cash consideration was trimmed to $236 million from the initially reported $248 million. Rather than full historical and pro forma financials, the SEC granted relief to substitute this reserve information—a critical metric for valuing an E&P acquisition, making this a material update to the original deal announcement.
