Welcome to our dedicated page for Aris Mining SEC filings (Ticker: ARIS), a comprehensive resource for investors and traders seeking official regulatory documents including 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly earnings, 8-K material events, and insider trading forms.
The ARIS SEC filings page on Stock Titan aggregates the historical regulatory documents of Aris Water Solutions, Inc., which formerly traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol ARIS. These filings provide a detailed record of the company’s business as an environmental infrastructure and solutions provider focused on full-cycle water handling and recycling for energy companies in the Permian Basin, as well as the corporate steps that led to its acquisition by Western Midstream Partners, LP.
For investors analyzing Aris’s historical operations, periodic reports such as Forms 10-K and 10-Q (referenced in company disclosures) contain information on produced water handling volumes, recycled water volumes, groundwater volumes sold, skim oil recoveries, and segment-level performance for its water gathering and processing activities. Earnings-related Form 8-K filings, including those furnishing quarterly press releases, present non-GAAP measures like Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Operating Margin per Barrel, along with reconciliations to GAAP metrics.
Filings from 2025 are particularly important for understanding the change in control. A Form 8-K dated August 6, 2025 describes the Agreement and Plan of Merger among Aris, its operating subsidiary, and Western Midstream Partners, LP, outlining the structure of the mergers and the forms of merger consideration available to holders of Aris Class A common stock and Aris OpCo Stapled Units. Subsequent Form 8-K filings detail the progress of the transaction, including the special meeting of stockholders to approve the merger agreement and, on October 15, 2025, the completion of the mergers that made Aris and its operating subsidiary wholly owned subsidiaries of Western Midstream.
Another key document is the Form 8-K reporting the delisting of Aris’s Class A common stock from the New York Stock Exchange. It explains that, in connection with the consummation of the mergers, Aris requested that the NYSE file a Form 25 to remove the listing and deregister the shares under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and that the Class A common stock ceased trading prior to the market open on October 15, 2025. Finally, a Form 15 filed on October 27, 2025 certifies the termination of registration under Section 12(g) and the suspension of Aris’s duty to file reports under Sections 13 and 15(d), confirming that the company’s equity securities were held by a single record holder and that Aris had become a wholly owned subsidiary of Western Midstream Partners, LP.
