We aspire to be the best at what we do and how we do it. We are disciplined, solution-oriented and accountable, and have high expectations for our individual and collective results. We work hard to keep earning our stakeholders’ trust. We are trusted and empowered to deliver our financial, operational, environmental and safety commitments, and responsibly serve our teams, partners and communities. Integrity We do the right thing and operate with honesty and courage. We are transparent, ethical and authentic; we speak up, listen and treat others with the respect we each expect to receive. Teamwork We know that our success depends on our collective contributions. We work collaboratively, depend on each other, share information and seek out other perspectives to solve our challenges and achieve our objectives. As an investor-managed, independent energy company, Crescent Energy takes a differentiated approach to the energy business. With deep operational expertise, our goal is to invest in energy assets that deliver differentiated and better returns through the inevitable cycles in our industry. We focus on cash-based investment returns and risk mitigation, rather than resource exploration and production metrics. We also account for the thoughtful management of ESG issues, and we view exceptional operational performance in managing these issues as core to our strategy. We strive to be good stewards of others’ assets: our investors’ capital, the environment and the communities in which we operate. We believe that this stewardship (and our success) requires an alignment with the interests of our stakeholders including our employees, investors, customers, suppliers and society at large. In support of our ESG vision, we have spent considerable time since the launch of Crescent Energy identifying targets to improve ESG performance at our assets, as well as bolstering our organizational capacity to achieve these goals. Our short-term priority is to drive sustained improvement in environmental, health and safety performance — working diligently to enhance our asset assurance organization to accelerate this work. We also encourage and empower our people to implement best practices across our operations.
