POST-EFFECTIVE AMENDMENT TO DEREGISTER UNSOLD SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK AND WITHDRAW OUR FORM S-3 REGISTRATION STATEMENT
On November 8, 2023, Permian Resources Holdings Inc. (formerly known as Permian Resources Corporation), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-275405) (the “Registration Statement”), registering 334,064,083 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A common stock”), of the Company (including shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain selling stockholders’ rights of redemption of common units (“OpCo Units”) representing limited liability company interests in Permian Resources Operating, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a subsidiary of the Company (“OpCo”)). The Registration Statement became effective upon filing with the SEC on November 8, 2023.
On January 7, 2026, the Company implemented a holding company reorganization (the “Reorganization”) pursuant to a Master Reorganization Agreement (the “Master Reorganization Agreement”), dated as of December 22, 2025, by and among the Company, Permian Resources Corporation (formerly known as PRC NewCo Inc), a Delaware corporation (the “Successor Registrant”), OpCo and PRC NewCo II Inc, a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), which resulted in the Successor Registrant becoming the direct parent company of the Company and replacing the Company as the public company trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “PR.”
Pursuant to the Master Reorganization Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Successor Registrant (the “Merger”). Upon consummation of the Merger, stockholders of the Company automatically became stockholders of the Successor Registrant, on a one-for-one basis, with the same number and ownership percentage of shares of the same class as they held in the Company immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger.
As a result of the Reorganization, the Company has terminated all offerings of securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. Pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Company represented that it would remove from registration by post-effective amendment any and all securities being registered which remained unsold at the termination of the offering.
Of the 334,064,083 shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain selling stockholders’ rights of redemption of OpCo Units) registered aforesaid, 79,150,389 shares of Class A common stock were unsold thereunder. The Company, pursuant to this post effective amendment, does hereby withdraw and remove from registration said 79,150,389 shares of Class A common stock (including shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain selling stockholders’ rights of redemption of OpCo Units).
The Company also requests, in accordance with Rule 457(p) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that all fees paid to the SEC in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited for future use to the Company’s account.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused the Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement described above to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Midland, State of Texas, on January 7, 2026.
