"Reflecting on 2019, we are proud of our many accomplishments: publishing our inaugural Corporate Responsibility Report; reconstituting our Nominating and Governance Committee to include environmental and social oversight; establishing our Safety, Sustainability, and Corporate Responsibility Planning and Disclosure Committee; and finishing the year with strong operating results and well positioned for continued free cash flow generation in 2020. Our focus on ESG initiatives now applies to an expanded asset base after our acquisition of Jagged Peak Energy Inc. in January 2020 and these objectives have remained top of mind as we navigate the unexpected macro challenges we have seen this year," said Matt Gallagher, President and CEO of Parsley.
