Mid-Con Energy Partners, LP Announces Permian Bolt-On Acquisition and Conforming Borrowing Base
TULSA, August 1, 2016 - Mid-Con Energy Partners, LP (NASDAQ: MCEP) ("Mid-Con Energy" or the "Partnership") through its wholly owned subsidiary, Mid-Con Energy Properties, LLC, announces that on July 28, 2016 it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire oil and natural gas properties in Nolan County, Texas, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $19.5 million. The acquisition is subject to customary post-closing adjustments and is expected to close on or before August 12, 2016, with an effective date of June 1, 2016. The acquisition will be funded through private financing from investors including affiliates of Bonanza Capital, Investor John Goff, and Swank Capital. Effective upon the closing of the asset purchase, the Partnership also announces that it has received unanimous lender support to increase the pro forma conforming borrowing base of its revolving credit facility to $140 million subject to execution of Amendment No. 10 to the credit agreement.
"Since announcing the results of our spring 2016 redetermination, we made a concerted effort to re-establish a conforming borrowing base without exclusively relying on a rebound in commodity price", commented Jeff Olmstead, Mid-Con Energy's Chief Executive Officer. "We believe that the strategy announced today enhances the Partnership's outlook on multiple fronts. The equity-weighted acquisition allows us to bolt-on multiple low operating cost, oil producing properties adjacent to our existing Permian position, while improving our overall debt metrics, collateral coverage, and financial flexibility. We are grateful for the efforts of all parties involved, and look forward to focusing on opportunities to grow in this challenged commodity price environment".
