Non-GAAP financial measures
Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Discretionary Cash Flow, Pro Forma 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 and/or share repurchases over the long term without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical cost basis. Sitio believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to Sitio's management and external users because they allow for a comparison of operating performance on a consistent basis across periods.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income 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) loss on debt extinguishment, (i) merger-related transaction costs and (j) write off of financing costs.
We define Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBITDA plus Cash Acquisitions EBITDA from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 that is not included in Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Cash Acquisitions is defined as the four acquisitions that closed in July and August 2023 for approximately
We define Discretionary Cash Flow and Pro Forma Discretionary Cash Flow for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash and accrued interest expense and estimated cash taxes.
We define Discretionary Cash Flow for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as Adjusted EBITDA, less cash interest expense and cash taxes.
We define Pro Forma Discretionary Cash Flow for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as Discretionary Cash Flow for the three months ended September 30, 2023 plus Cash Acquisitions Discretionary Cash Flow from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 that is not included in Discretionary Cash Flow for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
We define Cash G&A as general and administrative expense less (a) non-cash share-based compensation expense, (b) merger-related transaction costs and (c) rental income.
Merger-related transaction costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023 have been recast to conform to the current period presentation.
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, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Discretionary Cash Flow, Pro Forma Discretionary Cash Flow and Cash G&A may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.
The pro forma financial data is presented for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as an indication of the financial condition that would have been achieved if the acquisitions had taken place on the specified dates. In addition, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in such pro forma data and should not be relied on as an indication of future results.
The following tables present a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the period indicated (in thousands).

This news release contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal securities laws.
