Paul T. Horne, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Legacy's general partner, commented, "I am really proud of the strong results reported by all of our business units this quarter. Our business development and land teams created significant potential value by completing several complicated trades involving a puzzle of 11 tracts across the Permian Basin and many counterparties. Our team fit those pieces together in an optimized fashion that substantially improves the projected economics of some of our core inventory. Our operations team continues to find ways to improve leasehold economics by leveraging our longstanding Permian position. We remain committed to our lease-wide development approach, focused on maximizing return on investment, production, reserves and cash flow and we look forward to continuing this program as we transition to a C-Corp."

Dan Westcott, President and Chief Financial Officer of Legacy's general partner, commented, "Our team continues to execute and we are glad to report oil production growth that drives growth in EBITDA. While we have limited control over the widening of our oil differentials that occurred this quarter due to the widening of Mid-Cush basis, we are happy that we have hedged most of that exposure in 2018 and a bit of it in 2019. We gained good momentum in the field this quarter, and when combined with our expanded Permian Basin footprint, we believe we are well-positioned for success and are excited to realize Legacy's transition to becoming a growth-oriented development company."
