wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Group,” “DEC,” or “Diversified”) is an
independent energy company engaged in the production,
transportation and marketing of primarily natural gas.
Our proven business model creates sustainable value in today's natural gas market by investing in
producing assets, reducing emissions and improving asset integrity while generating significant, hedge-
protected cash flows. We Acquire, Optimize, Produce and Transport natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil
from existing wells then Retire our wells at the end of their life to optimally steward the resource already
developed by others within our industry, reducing the environmental footprint, while sustaining important
jobs and tax revenues for many local communities. While most companies in our sector are built to explore
and develop new reserves, we fully exploit existing reserves through our focus on safely and efficiently
operating existing wells to maximize their productive lives and economic capabilities, which in turn
reduces the industry’s footprint on our planet.

Chairman’s Statement
img_chairman-letter.jpg
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am
pleased to share our financial and operational
results that reflect the hard work, dedication,
and focus of the entire Diversified team. Their
consistent execution of our strategy and
management initiatives has driven another year
of strong environmental, financial, and
operational performance.
Throughout 2023, we continued to focus on
cash flow generation, capital discipline, and
balance sheet management. This, together with
our resilient business model, means we have
been able to deliver strong results which have
benefited all stakeholders.
In addition, we are proud of the part we are
playing in responsibly providing the energy
needed for our communities and country, as
well as meeting growing demand beyond
the U.S.
Since 2017, Diversified’s demonstrated track
record has delivered more than $800 million in
returns to the Group’s stockholders including
approximately $700 million in cash dividends
paid and declared, along with approximately
$110 million in share repurchases.
The Board’s dedication to shareholder returns
remains an absolute priority. We continuously
refine the capital allocation framework in order
to balance debt reduction, sustainable fixed
dividends, strategic share repurchases and
accretive acquisitions. We are proposing a final
fourth quarter 2023 dividend of $0.29 which
allows us to focus our cash flows on what we
believe are the highest and best uses of capital.
We are confident that this new level will be
sustainable, and will also allow for continued
debt reduction, more flexibility for alternative
capital returns, and for funding future growth.
We believe that our share price has been
significantly undervalued for some while and
has been affected by the structural de-
equitization of the UK share market. We have,
therefore, also authorized a share buyback
program, which we believe will be an effective
use of our capital and will further increase total
shareholder returns.
Part of our business model and strategy
revolves around the continued addition of
growth opportunities. We identified a listing on
the New York Stock Exchange, in addition to
the London listing, as an opportunity that could
help to add significant value and were pleased
to deliver on that key milestone this year. We
view the NYSE listing as a great opportunity to
expand access to U.S. investors and improve
trading liquidity. We continue to evaluate
opportunities to grow and to increasingly
make Diversified the “Right Company at the
Right Time.”
Another important part of our focused strategy
is to create value through sustainability and
stewardship. Over the past year, we have made
significant progress with our methane emissions
program, reducing emissions by over 33% from
2022 and achieving our 2030 goal meaningfully
ahead of schedule. We are proud that we
received recognition from the United Nations’
Oil & Gas Methane Partnership 2.0 (OGMP),
being awarded the Gold rating for the second
year. Our initiatives related to methane emission
reductions are of paramount importance, and it
gives us great confidence to see this recognized
by international bodies.
Operationally, we conducted over 246,000 leak
detection surveys using industry-leading and
proven detection equipment, and attaining a
zero emissions rate of approximately 98%,
proving the positive impact of our actions to
eliminate methane leaks. Next LVL Energy, our
asset retirement business, has continued to
grow and contribute significantly to safe and
efficient well retirements, retiring a total of 404
wells. This achievement included retiring a total
of 222 Diversified wells in 2023, significantly
exceeding state agreements. Additionally, our
partnership with states on their orphan well
programs resulted in 148 retired wells. We are
immensely proud of the material investments
we have made to lower our methane intensity,
and to safely retire wells, and we remain
focused on delivering continuous improvement.
The Board and its Committees continue to
operate effectively and are active in both
supporting and challenging strategic
discussions. There is an exceptional depth of
knowledge and diversity of thinking. We again
conducted a Board Performance Review during
2023 and will continue to ensure that we
comply with all governance guidelines.
As we look ahead to 2024 and beyond, I would
like to recognize the quality of the team we
have at Diversified, across the entire Group. I am
very grateful for their work and look forward to
future successes as a company in the years to
come. In particular, I would like to thank the
Executive Team, led by Rusty Hutson, Jr., who
navigated the team through a year that has
seen its share of broader challenges, notably an
unfavorable commodity price environment. I
also wish to express gratitude to our
shareholders, lenders, and other stakeholders
for their trust in our commitment to deliver
long-term sustainable value and their support
whilst we provide essential energy security and
continue to care for our communities.

results which have
benefited all
stakeholders.

Chief Executive’s Statement
The fundamental need for natural gas is well-
cemented in our domestic and global energy
outlooks. Natural gas is the essential fuel to
tackling global challenges – from enhancing energy
security of the United States and allies around the
world to addressing the universally shared need for
reliable, affordable, and sustainable power, natural
gas demand remains strong.
It’s against this backdrop of rising global energy
demand, consolidation in the U.S. energy markets,
and enhanced expectations for sustainably
produced energy that the case for Diversified’s
stewardship business model sharpens. Thanks to
our approach – focused on acquiring, improving,
and retiring existing, long-life U.S. energy assets
and honed through two decades of field
experience – Diversified is the “Right Company at
the Right Time” to responsibly manage existing
domestic natural gas and oil production in a
manner that’s consistent with environmental
stewardship and a lower-carbon energy future.
We continue to aggressively pursue this mission
each and every day, and 2023 was no different.
From closing the Tanos II acquisition – which
increased our footprint in the Central Region and
aligned with our stewardship and sustainability
commitments – to ending the year with dual-listing
on the New York Stock Exchange, 2023 was a year
focused on execution against our core business
objectives.
Through our focused commitment to responsible
asset management, we continue to drive methane
intensities downward, while returning wells to
production and gaining operational efficiencies.
Compared to a 2020 baseline, upstream methane
intensity has fallen over 50%, achieving our 2030
goal meaningfully ahead of schedule, and we are
continuing to take aggressive steps to optimize
environmental performance across our operating
areas. By viewing asset retirement as a business
opportunity, Diversified’s Next LVL Energy
subsidiary is the largest well retirement company in
Appalachia. Our focus on asset retirement stands
out, with our dedicated teams responsibly retiring 
404 wells in 2023 alone, as no other company is
addressing state orphaned and end-of-life wells
head-on like we are.
This focus on sustainability principles has been
validated on the domestic and global stage, with
sustained Gold standard designations from the
United Nation’s Oil and Gas Methane Partnership
2.0 (second year), attainment of the second-
highest MSCI ESG “AA” rating, and multiple
sustainability awards, to name a few. Last year’s
sustainability report detailing our proactive
approach took home the ESG Report of the Year
by the international ESG Awards 2023 for speaking
to “both head and heart,” while also receiving the
top category nomination from IR Magazine. I am
proud to see the hard work of our employees
recognized as industry leaders time and again.
We also continue to expand Diversified’s
community-giving culture in the communities
where we live and work, and we’re privileged to
strengthen our corporate commitments to
employees. We fully recognize none of this
progress would be possible without our 1,600+
diligent team who work every day to ensure
families across the United States have safe, clean,
and reliable energy resources.
In the year ahead, we are taking a renewed focus
on the values on which Diversified was founded:
investing in strategic, aligned acquisitions that
scale our model and deliver greater operational
efficiencies, taking proactive steps to ensure the
sustainability of assets, keeping costs low and de-
leveraging the balance sheet – all while returning
value to shareholders.
Diversified has set in motion its “Focus Five”  in
order to demonstrate meaningful expansion of
free cash flow generation while growing the
company in a disciplined manner. That plan
consists of the following core objectives:
Optimized cash flow generation
Cost structure optimization
Financial and operational flexibility
Sustainability innovation 
Scale through accretive growth
I believe these principles will help differentiate the
Company among its peers in unlocking corporate
value throughout 2024 and into the future.
The Company has undertaken a reassessment of
its capital allocation strategy to weigh the
intrinsic value of the current share price level
against the historical practice of returning capital
through dividends. The Board and executive
management team have jointly evaluated a
number of potential scenarios to align the
dividend level with expected future capital
allocation needs, peer trends, current commodity
prices and current equity market dynamics.
The result of this assessment is the Board’s
realignment of capital allocation and is designed
to best position the Company to create long-term
shareholder value through the proper
combination of:
Systematic debt reduction
Fixed per-share dividend
Strategic share repurchases
Accretive strategic acquisitions
We are proud to be part of the solution to the
broader challenge of existing energy
infrastructure and to do our part in driving our
country’s energy, climate, and economic security
– and we couldn’t do it without our OneDEC team.

A Differentiated Business Model
1
icons_acquire.jpg
ACQUIRE
We maintain a disciplined approach to evaluating
opportunities to ensure that we only pursue those
that possess a consistent asset profile. We target
existing long-life, stable assets with synergistic
opportunities that produce predictable and stable
cash flows, are value accretive, margin enhancing
and strategically complementary.
2
icons_optimize.jpg
OPTIMIZE
The primarily mature nature of the assets we
acquire provides us with a portfolio of low-cost
optimization opportunities. These optimization
activities, applied through our internally
developed SAM program, are strategically
important as they aid in offsetting natural
production declines, creating expense efficiency
and reducing our emissions.
3
icons_produce.jpg
PRODUCE
Our culture makes the difference as our team of
industry veterans strive to efficiently produce as
many units as possible in a safe and
environmentally responsible manner, aligning both
environmental and financial best interests.
4
icons_transport.jpg
TRANSPORT
We seek to acquire midstream systems into which
we are a large producer and more fully integrate
those assets into our upstream portfolio to provide
immediate and long-term synergies.
5
icons_retire.jpg
RETIRE
We embrace our commitment to be a responsible
operator of existing assets. With safety and
environmental stewardship as top priorities, we
design our asset retirement program to
permanently retire wells that have reached the end
of their producing lives. During 2022, we made
investments that allowed us to meaningfully
expand our asset retirement capabilities through a
series of acquisitions that we believe have provided
us with the operational capacity to be a leader in
asset retirement.
DAILY OPERATING PRIORITIES
Safety
No compromises. Ensuring the care and well-being of
our employees, our families, our partners and
communities is our top priority.

Our business model and the corporate culture we cultivate is unique among the natural
gas and oil industry in that we do not engage in capital-intensive drilling and
development. Rather, our stewardship model focuses on acquiring existing long-life,
low-decline producing wells and, at times, their associated midstream assets, and then
efficiently managing the assets to improve or restore production, reduce unit operating
costs, reduce emissions and generate consistent free cash flow before safely and
permanently retiring those assets at the end of their useful lives.

Areas
U.S. NATURAL GAS PLAYS
Our Operating Areas
CENTRAL REGION
Our Central Region includes parts of Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma, and is home to a number of asset rich natural gas and oil
formations. We currently operate within Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma in the following plays:
Haynesville, Bossier and Cotton Valley
While in a relatively similar geographic region of East Texas
and West Louisiana, the Bossier shale lies directly above the
Haynesville shale but beneath the Cotton Valley sandstones.
A key benefit to operations in this region is the ability to
access consistent natural gas pipeline transportation from
the wellhead to the Gulf Coast, an area of strong demand
and advantageous pricing. This access to strong pricing and
takeaway capacity has made it a desirable area for
developers and one of rapid growth, particularly in the
Haynesville, with Cotton Valley and Bossier viewed as more
mature. As the wells in this region continue to mature and
decline rates continue to shallow and become more
predictable, it will be a fertile ground for our
continued expansion.
Barnett
An original shale play in the U.S., the Barnett shale is located
in North Texas and is a geological formation rich in natural
gas. The Barnett is home to some of the first horizontal
drilling and hydraulic stimulation that occurred in the early
1990s, unlocking the U.S. shale revolution. For a time during
the early 2000s, the Barnett was the largest natural gas
producing shale play in the U.S. Though drilling in this area
has largely subsided, the maturity of the play with its now
vast portfolio of low decline rate wells makes this area
available for opportunities to complement our existing
mature portfolio through future acquisitions.
Mid Continent
The Mid Continent region stretches across Oklahoma, Kansas
and the Texas panhandle and is generally understood to
reference the Fayetteville, Woodford, Granite Wash,
Springer, Sycamore and Cana Woodford shale natural gas
plays along with numerous other conventional and
unconventional natural gas reservoirs in the Arkoma Basin,
Ardmore Basin and Anadarko Basin. This mature and
developed region has undergone a redevelopment
renaissance over the last several years through the use of
hydraulic stimulation and horizontal drilling. It is an asset rich
environment with an abundance of mature wells and
developed transportation infrastructure making it a valuable
complement to our current portfolio.
