(2) Guidance issued in January 2022 for pro forma combined company (Desert Peak Minerals and Falcon Minerals).

Chris Conoscenti, Chief Executive Officer of Sitio commented, "We are excited to announce strong results for our first quarter as a public company. Active operator development of our assets, incremental royalty revenue from acquired assets, and favorable commodity prices contributed to a successful inaugural quarter. We continued to execute well on our large-scale, Permian-weighted consolidation strategy. This was our most active quarter in our Company's history with the closing of the Falcon Merger, the closing of the acquisition of Permian assets from Foundation Minerals, LLC ( the "Foundation Acquisition") and two other all cash acquisitions, and the announcement of the Momentum Acquisition. In aggregate, these acquisitions increase our footprint by 65% to over 173,000 NRAs. In addition, I'm pleased to announce our inaugural dividend of $0.71 per share for the second quarter, which is based on cash flow for legacy Desert Peak Minerals and Falcon Minerals as if both entities had been combined for the entire quarter and is not burdened with transaction fees from the Falcon Merger. Our second quarter dividend per share is nearly 99% of the split adjusted dividend per share that was paid to Falcon Minerals stockholders for the first quarter of 2022, even though our target payout ratio of 65% of Discretionary Cash Flow is lower than Falcon Minerals' historical payout ratio of approximately 100%, which gives Sitio significantly more financial flexibility to protect the balance sheet and pursue accretive acquisitions."

OPERATOR ACTIVITY AND MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS UPDATE

During the second quarter of 2022 and inclusive of the NRAs acquired from Momentum Minerals, the Company estimates that there were 5.2 net wells turned-in-line with an average net royalty interest ("NRI") of 0.7% and that as of June 30, 2022, there were 26.8 net LOS wells comprised of 14.4 net spuds and 12.4 net permits on the Company's acreage. Daily production volume averaged 12,402 Boe/d, which includes 24 days of production from assets acquired from Falcon Minerals and 7 days of production from assets acquired from Foundation Minerals, LLC. Second quarter 2022 pro forma combined daily production volume averaged 15,149 Boe/d including production from assets acquired from Falcon Minerals for the entire quarter but excluding additional adjustments for assets acquired in other acquisitions.

Sitio completed the all-stock merger with Falcon Minerals on June 7, 2022 and closed three all cash acquisitions during the second quarter of 2022, increasing NRAs by approximately 56,300. In June of 2022, the Company also signed a purchase agreement for approximately 12,200 Permian Basin NRAs from Momentum Minerals for approximately $224.0 million5, which closed on July 26, 2022. In aggregate, these acquired assets (including those acquired from Momentum Minerals) are expected to make a substantial impact to near-term production and cash flow, and as of June 30, 2022, these assets acquired from Foundation Minerals and Momentum Minerals had 9.0 net LOS wells, comprised of 3.4 net spuds and 5.6 net permits.

FINANCIAL UPDATE

Sitio's second quarter 2022 average unhedged realized prices including all expected quality, transportation and demand adjustments were $109.87 per barrel of oil, $6.55 per Mcf of natural gas and $42.29 per barrel of natural gas liquids, for a total equivalent price of $76.65 per barrel of oil equivalent. During the second quarter, the Company paid $420,000 in net cash settlements for commodity derivative contracts and as a result, average hedged realized prices were $109.35 per barrel of oil, $6.49 per Mcf of natural gas and $42.29 per barrel of natural gas liquids, for a total equivalent price of $76.28 per barrel of oil equivalent. This represents a $12.90 per barrel of oil equivalent, or 20% increase relative to hedged realized prices for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Consolidated net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $72.0 million, an increase of 87% relative to the first quarter of 2022. Consolidated net income was positively impacted by a $20.4 million non-cash hedging gain from Sitio's commodity derivative contracts. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 Adjusted EBITDA was $76.7 million, up 29% from the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to increased production volumes and commodity prices.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had a cash balance of $15.6 million, $505.0 million of total debt (comprised of $255.0 million drawn on its revolving credit facility and a $250.0 million 364-day unsecured term loan) and liquidity of $60.6 million. In July of 2022, the Company drew an additional $175.0 million on the 364-day unsecured term loan and $10.0 million on the revolving credit facility to fund the closing of the Momentum Acquisition. Sitio is evaluating long-term debt financing options to repay the $425.0 million 364-day unsecured term loan. Sitio added hedges related to recent cash acquisitions, which are reflected in the summary table of Sitio's commodity hedges.

SECOND QUARTER CASH DIVIDEND

The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") declared a cash dividend of $0.71 per share of Class A Common Stock for the second quarter of 2022. The dividend is payable on August 31, 2022 to all eligible stockholders at the close of business on August 18, 2022. Based on a 65% payout ratio of second quarter 2022 Discretionary Cash Flow, Sitio's quarterly dividend would have been $0.58 per Class A common share; however, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 2Q 2022 dividend of $0.71 per Class A common share, which equates to an approximate 65% payout ratio including pro forma Falcon Minerals Discretionary Cash Flow for the full three months ended June 30, 2022.

Non-GAAP financial measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Discretionary Cash Flow and Cash G&A are non-GAAP supplemental financial measures used by our management and by external users of our financial statements such as investors, research analysts and others to assess the financial performance of our assets and their ability to sustain dividends over the long term without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (a) interest expense, (b) provisions for taxes, (c) depreciation, depletion and amortization, (d) non-cash share-based compensation expense, (e) impairment of oil and natural gas properties, (f) gains or losses on unsettled derivative instruments, (g) change in fair value of the warrant liability, (h) write off of deferred offering costs, (i) management fee to affiliates, and (j) one-time transaction costs. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

We define Discretionary Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash interest expense and cash taxes.

We define Cash G&A as general and administrative expense less (a) non-cash share-based compensation expense and (b) one-time transaction costs.

These non-GAAP financial measures do not represent and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our computations of Adjusted EBITDA, Discretionary Cash Flow and Cash G&A may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the period indicated (in thousands).

Forward Looking Statements

This new release contains statements that may constitute "forward-looking statements" for purposes of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions. The words "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intends," "may," "might," "plan," "seeks," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "prospects," "guidance," "outlook," "should," "would," "will," and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements about expected benefits of acquisitions as well as future plans, expectations and objectives for the Company's operations, including statements about strategy, synergies, future operations, financial position, prospects, and plans. While forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, whether actual results and developments will meet our expectations and predictions depend on a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results, performance, and financial condition to differ materially from our expectations and predictions. See "Risk Factors" in the Company's definitive proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 5, 2022 for a discussion of risk factors related to the Falcon Merger. See also Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, each filed with the SEC for a discussion of risk factors that affect the Company's business. Any forward-looking statement made in this news release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all of them. Sitio undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future development, or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
