UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER DATA
On September 17, 2018, Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. (Northern, the Company, we, and our) completed the acquisition of certain oil and gas properties and interests from Pivotal Williston Basin, LP and Pivotal Williston Basin II, LP (together, the Pivotal Entities), effective as of June 1, 2018 (the Pivotal Acquisition). The acquired assets primarily consist of a package of producing wells, with the Company acquiring approximately 20.8 net producing wells and 2.2 net wells in process, as well as approximately 444 net acres in North Dakota. The purchase agreements provided for an aggregate purchase price consisting of (i) $68.4 million in cash (subject to typical closing and post-closing adjustments that we estimate will reduce the cash consideration to $48.2 million), (ii) 25,753,578 shares of our common stock, and (iii) potential additional contingent consideration if our common stock trades below certain price targets.
On October 1, 2018, we completed the acquisition of certain oil and gas properties and interests from WR Operating LLC (W Energy), effective as of July 1, 2018 (the W Energy Acquisition). The acquired assets consist of approximately 27.2 net producing wells and 5.9 net wells in progress, as well as approximately 10,633 net acres in North Dakota. The purchase agreement, as amended, provided for an aggregate purchase price consisting of (i) $117.1 million in cash (subject to typical closing and post-closing adjustments that we estimate will reduce the cash consideration to $97.8 million), (ii) 51,476,961 shares of our common stock, and (iii) potential additional contingent consideration if our common stock trades below certain price targets.

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION
These financial statements present our unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of June 30, 2018, unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 and unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018. These unaudited statements have been developed by applying pro forma adjustments to our historical financial statements to give effect to the Pivotal and W Energy Acquisitions.
The unaudited pro forma financial statements were prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X Article 11 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The pro forma adjustments related to the purchase price allocation of the Pivotal and W Energy Acquisitions are preliminary and are subject to revisions as additional information becomes available. Revisions to the preliminary purchase price allocation may have a significant impact on the pro forma amounts of depreciation, depletion, amortization, and accretion expense. The pro forma adjustments related to the Pivotal Acquisition reflect the fair values of the assets as of September 17, 2018 (the closing date of the transaction). The pro forma adjustments related to the W Energy Acquisition reflect the fair values of the assets as of October 1, 2018 (the closing date of the transaction). The pro forma adjustments related to these acquisitions do not necessarily reflect the fair values that would have been recorded if the applicable acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2017 or June 30, 2018.
The unaudited pro forma financial statements should be read together with our historical financial statements and the related notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the six months ended June 30, 2018, the historical statements of revenues and direct operating expenses for the Pivotal Acquisition for the year ended December 31, 2017, and the six months ended June 30, 2018, and the historical financial statements and related notes for the W Energy Acquisition as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, and the six months ended June 30, 2018.
The pro forma financial information presented gives effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the Pivotal and W Energy Acquisitions, (2) factually supportable and (3) with respect to the pro forma statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact. The pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of financial results that would have been attained had the Pivotal and W Energy Acquisitions occurred on the date indicated or which could be achieved in the future. The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions. However, our management believes that the assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the transactions as contemplated and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma financial statements.
NOTE 2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS
The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined financial statements reflect the following pro forma adjustments:
(a) | Represents the preliminary purchase price allocation for the W Energy Acquisition of $341.6 million, consisting of (i) $97.8 million in cash (which reflects the $117.1 million unadjusted cash consideration provided for in the purchase agreement, as amended, less $2.2 million of working capital adjustments made at closing and $17.0 million of additional estimated post-closing working capital adjustments), (ii) 51,476,961 shares of our common stock valued at $220.8 million, based on the $4.29 per share closing price of our common stock on the closing date of the W Energy Acquisition, and (iii) $23.0 million in value attributable to the potential additional contingent consideration. |
(b) | Represents the preliminary purchase price allocation for the Pivotal Acquisition of $146.1 million, consisting of (i) $48.2 million in cash (which reflects the $68.4 million aggregate unadjusted cash consideration provided for in the purchase agreements, less $7.8 million of working capital adjustments made at closing and $12.4 million of additional estimated post-closing working capital adjustments), (ii) 25,753,578 shares of our common stock valued at $88.6 million, based on the $3.44 per share closing price of our common stock on the closing date of the Pivotal Acquisition, and (iii) $9.4 million in value attributable to the potential additional contingent consideration. |
(c) | Represents the elimination of historical assets, liabilities, and members capital related to the W Energy Acquisition that we are not acquiring or assuming. |
(d) | Represents the elimination of the historical W Energy Acquisition proved oil and natural gas properties of $156.0 million and related accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization, and accretion of $20.9 million, which was offset by the preliminary purchase price allocation for the W Energy Acquisition of $341.6 million, which was recorded as proved oil and natural gas properties. |
(e) | Represents the increase in depreciation, depletion, amortization, and accretion expense computed on a unit of production basis following the preliminary purchase price allocation to proved oil and natural gas properties, as if the Pivotal Acquisition was consummated on January 1, 2017. |
(f) | Represents the increase in depreciation, depletion, amortization, and accretion expense computed on a unit of production basis following the preliminary purchase price allocation to proved oil and natural gas properties, as if the W Energy Acquisition was consummated on January 1, 2017. |
(g) | Represents the historical revenues and direct operating expenses of the Pivotal Acquisition. |

(b) | For the Pivotal Acquisition Historical Results: as reported in its audited statement of revenues and direct operating expenses and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2017, based upon a reserve report prepared by the independent petroleum engineers as of December 31, 2017; |
(c) | For the W Energy Acquisition Historical Results: as reported in its audited financial statements and related footnotes for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, based upon a reserve report prepared by their internal petroleum engineers as of December 31, 2017; |
Numerous uncertainties are inherent in estimating quantities and values of proved reserves and in projecting future rates of production and the amount and timing of development expenditures, including many factors beyond the property owners control. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating the recovery from underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact manner. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Because all reserve estimates are to some degree subjective, the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered, production and operating costs, the amount and timing of future development expenditures and future oil and gas sales prices may each differ from those assumed in these estimates. In addition, different reserve engineers may make different estimates of reserve quantities and cash flows based upon the same available data. The standardized measure shown below represents an estimate only and should not be construed as the current market value of the estimated oil and natural gas reserves reported below.
The pro forma estimates of proved 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. Proved developed reserves represent only those reserves estimated to be recovered through existing wells. Proved undeveloped reserves include those reserves that may be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage or from existing wells on which a relatively major expenditure for recompletion or secondary recovery operation is required.
The following tables provide a summary of the changes in estimated proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2017, as well as pro forma proved developed and proved undeveloped reserves as of the beginning and end of the year, giving effect to the Pivotal and W Energy Acquisitions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2017. The pro forma standardized measure does not include future income taxes attributable to the Pivotal and W Energy Acquisitions as both entities are considered pass-through entities for tax purposes.
