Other Information

As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 3, 2022, Crestwood Equity Partners LP (the “Partnership”) completed its acquisition of Oasis Midstream Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “OMP Merger”) on February 1, 2022.

As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 15, 2022 by the Partnership, on July 11, 2022, (i) Crestwood Midstream Partners LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“CMLP”) and wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership, and Crestwood Sendero GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of CMLP, completed their acquisition of Sendero Midstream Partners LP (the “Sendero Acquisition”); and (ii) the Partnership completed its acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC from FR XIII Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “CPJV Acquisition” and together with the OMP Merger and the Sendero Acquisition, the “Transactions”).

The Partnership previously filed certain historical and unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information required under Regulation S-X with respect to the Transactions in a Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on September 2, 2022 (the “September 2022 Form 8-K”).

In connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 by the Partnership on the date hereof, this Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to provide updated unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Updated Pro Forma Financial Information”). The Updated Pro Forma Financial Information updates and supplements the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information of the Partnership and related disclosures contained in Exhibit 99.1 to the September 2022 Form 8-K. To the extent that information in this Current Report on Form 8-K differs from or updates information contained in the September 2022 Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall supersede or supplement the information in the September 2022 Form 8-K.

The Updated Pro Forma Financial Information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K has been presented for informational purposes only, as required by Form S-3. It does not purport to represent the actual results of operations that the Partnership would have achieved had the Transactions occurred on January 1, 2022, and is not intended to project the future results of operations that the Partnership may achieve as a result of the Transactions.

Exhibit 99.1

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information set forth below provides supplemental information related to (i) the Partnership’s merger with Oasis Midstream Partners LP (“Oasis Midstream”) on February 1, 2022 (the “Oasis Merger”); (ii) the Partnership’s acquisition of Sendero Midstream Partners, LP (“Sendero”) on July 11, 2022 (the “Sendero Transaction”); and (iii) the Partnership’s acquisition of FR XIII Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC’s (“First Reserve”) 50% equity interest in Crestwood Permian Basin Holdings LLC (“Crestwood Permian”) on July 11, 2022 (the “CPJV Acquisition”). The Oasis Merger, Sendero Transaction and the CPJV Acquisition are referred to herein as the “Transactions.” References to “Crestwood,” the “Partnership,” “we,” “us” or “our” in this section refer to Crestwood Equity Partners LP and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information set forth below has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X and includes pro forma adjustments that are directly attributable to the Transactions and factually supportable. We prepared the pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information has been derived from and should be read in conjunction with (i) our historical audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2023; (ii) Sendero’s historical unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the six months ended June 30, 2022 attached as Exhibit 99.2 to our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on September 2, 2022; (iii) Crestwood Permian’s historical unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the six months ended June 30, 2022 attached as Exhibit 99.4 to our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on September 2, 2022; and (iv) the notes accompanying this unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information. Oasis Midstream’s historical unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the month ended January 31, 2022 was derived from Oasis Midstream’s historical accounting records.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information was prepared by applying pro forma adjustments to our historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 is not presented as the historical consolidated balance sheet of the Partnership already reflects the effects of the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022, has been prepared to give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2022.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information is based on financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based on available information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The pro forma adjustments and their underlying assumptions are described more fully in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial results that would have occurred if the Transactions had been completed as of the date indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information does not reflect the anticipated benefits from opportunities to earn additional revenues, cost savings from operating efficiencies or synergies (or associated costs or capital expenditures required to achieve such additional revenues, savings or synergies), the impact of restructuring, or other factors that may result as a consequence of the Transactions and, accordingly, do not attempt to predict or suggest future results.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Combined Statement of Operations

Note 1 – Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of SEC Regulation S-X and includes pro forma adjustments that are directly attributable to the Transactions and factually supportable.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 is not presented as the historical consolidated balance sheet of the Partnership already reflects the effects of the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022, has been prepared to give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2022.

The pro forma adjustments represent management’s best estimate based on information available as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations does not reflect the anticipated benefits from opportunities to earn additional revenues, cost savings from operating efficiencies or synergies (or associated costs or capital expenditures required to achieve such additional revenues, savings, or synergies).

Reflects the results of Oasis Midstream for the month ended January 31, 2022.

The historical results for Sendero and Crestwood Permian for the period from July 1, 2022 to July 10, 2022 were not material and as a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 does not reflect the results of operations for Sendero and Crestwood Permian for this period.

 

(c)

Reflects the elimination of intercompany transactions between Crestwood and Crestwood Permian.

     Year Ended

   $ 0.6

  (2)

Interest expense under Crestwood’s revolving credit facility is calculated using a weighted-average interest rate of 6.40% for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

 

(h)

Represents the elimination of expenses recorded by Oasis Midstream in conjunction with the Oasis Merger.

 

(i)
