On June 16, 2022, Lasso Acquiror LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”) and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Targa Resources Corp., a Delaware corporation (NYSE: TRGP) (the “Company”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”) by and among Buyer, Lucid Energy Group II Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), and, for the purposes set forth therein, Lucid Energy Group II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to which Buyer will acquire all of the issued and outstanding interests of Lucid Energy Delaware, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Lucid”), from the Seller (the “Lucid Acquisition”). The Company will pay $3.55 billion in cash (subject to certain adjustments as more particularly described in the Purchase and Sale Agreement) to Seller in connection with the Lucid Acquisition. The Company currently expects the Lucid Acquisition to close during the third quarter of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.

Lucid provides natural gas gathering, treating, and processing services in the Delaware Basin, including approximately 1,050 miles of natural gas pipelines and approximately 1.4 billion cubic feet per day of cryogenic natural gas processing capacity in service or under construction located primarily in Eddy and Lea counties of New Mexico.

The description of the Purchase and Sale Agreement set forth above in Item 1.01 is qualified in its entirety by the Purchase and Sale Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Certain statements in this Item 1.01 of Form 8-K are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 8-K that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties, factors and risks, many of which are outside the Company’s control, which could cause results to differ materially from those expected by management of the Company. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, weather, political, economic and market conditions, including a decline in the price and market demand for natural gas, natural gas liquids and crude oil, the impact of pandemics such as COVID-19, commodity price volatility due to ongoing conflict in Ukraine, actions by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and non-OPEC oil producing countries, the timing and success of business development efforts, the completion of the Lucid Acquisition, which may not be completed on a timely basis or at all, expected benefits relating to the Lucid Acquisition and their impact on the Company’s results of operations, and other uncertainties. These and other applicable uncertainties, factors and risks are described more fully in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. The Company does not undertake an obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
