Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures and have not been reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measures because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management\u2019s control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide an outlook for the comparable GAAP measures.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">(2) \u00a0Income from equity affiliates included in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow consists of (i) distributions received from the operations of the Company&#8217;s equity affiliates and (ii) management fees earned by the Company for services provided in its capacity as manager of the equity affiliates.

All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be\u00a0deemed\u00a0to be, forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, which contain the words \u201canticipate\u201d, \u201cbelieve\u201d, \u201cintend\u201d, \u201cestimate\u201d, \u201cexpect\u201d, \u201cmay\u201d, \u201cwill\u201d, \u201cseek\u201d, \u201ccontinue\u201d, \u201caim\u201d, \u201ctarget\u201d, \u201cprojected\u201d, \u201cplan\u201d, \u201cgoal\u201d, \u201cachieve\u201d, \u201cguidance\u201d, &#8220;outlook&#8221; and words of similar meaning, reflect the Company\u2019s beliefs and expectations and are based on numerous assumptions regarding the Company\u2019s present and future business strategies and the environment the Company will operate in and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. No representation is made that any of these statements or forecasts will come\u00a0to\u00a0pass\u00a0or that any forecast results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements involve inherent known and unknown risks, uncertainties and contingencies because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future and may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the Company\u2019s ability to control or estimate precisely, such as general economic and business conditions, the behavior of other market participants, industry trends, competition, commodity prices, changes in regulation, currency fluctuations, our ability to recover our reserves, the timing and cost of drilling and completion activities, well performance and our ability to develop undeveloped acreage, our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions, the timing and completion of the Birch acquisition, including the satisfaction of closing conditions and receipt of any required regulatory approvals, our ability to realize the anticipated benefits, synergies and accretion of the Birch acquisition, future dispositions, our ability to obtain financing to meet liquidity needs, changes in our business strategy, and political and economic uncertainty. The list above is not exhaustive and there are other factors that may cause the Company\u2019s actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this announcement, including the risk factors described in the \u201cRisk Factors\u201d section in the Company\u2019s Annual Report on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=7k7GAON9L7z37-yroFreM7IF5nkfKRoo9VIWeOdWT4MDVRnFcofkmwsrTvCeUlo-381FrSiGke3PXlJENImgmdLIjKxBRcc2_Y6ziMdf6M3HSBp4iMHhqVY0JDjmgPevKSGbVVsuJ0IeNxbo4mhLJspDLTZiP7oCv-dDlFkj_B8=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Form 10-K<\/a> for the year ended December\u00a031, 2025, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;) and in the Company\u2019s subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Forward-looking statements speak only as of their date and the Company and its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and advisers expressly disclaim any obligation to supplement, amend, update or revise any of the forward-looking statements made herein, except where it would be required to do so under applicable law. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements in this announcement may not occur. As a result, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Past performance of the Company cannot be relied on as a guide to future performance. No statement in this announcement is intended as a profit forecast or a profit estimate and no statement in this announcement should be interpreted to mean that the financial performance of the Company for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical results published for the Company.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Use of Non-GAAP Measures<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Certain key operating metrics that are not defined under GAAP (&#8220;non-GAAP&#8221; measures) are included in this announcement. These non-GAAP measures are used by us to monitor the underlying business performance of the Company from period to period and to facilitate comparison with our peers. Since not all companies calculate these or other non-GAAP metrics in the same way, the manner in which we have chosen to calculate the non-GAAP metrics presented herein may not be comparable with similarly defined terms used by other companies. The non-GAAP metrics should not be considered in isolation of, or viewed as substitutes for, the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the key operating metrics are based on information derived from our regularly maintained records and accounting and operating systems.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Adjusted EBITDA &amp; Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">As used\u00a0herein, EBITDA\u00a0represents\u00a0earnings before interest, taxes, depletion,\u00a0depreciation\u00a0and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments for items that are not comparable period-over-period, namely, interest expense, accretion of asset retirement obligation, other (income) expense, (gain) loss on fair value adjustments of unsettled financial instruments, (gain) loss on natural gas and oil property and equipment, costs associated with acquisitions, other adjusting costs, loss on early retirement of debt, non-cash equity compensation, (income) loss from equity affiliate, (gain) loss on<\/p>\n<p>interest rate swaps, and items of a similar nature.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Adjusted EBITDA and pro forma adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating profit or loss, net income or loss, or cash flows provided by\u00a0operating,\u00a0investing\u00a0and financing activities. However, we believe such measure is useful to an investor in evaluating our financial performance because it (1) is widely used by investors in the natural gas and oil industry as an indicator of underlying business performance; (2) helps investors to more meaningfully evaluate and\u00a0compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the often-volatile revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement; (3) is used in the calculation of a key metric in one of our Credit Facility financial covenants; and (4) is used by us as a performance measure in determining executive compensation. When evaluating this measure, we believe investors also commonly find it useful to evaluate this metric as a percentage of our total revenue,\u00a0inclusive of\u00a0settled hedges, producing what we refer to as our adjusted EBITDA margin.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The following table presents a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of net income (loss) to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods listed:\u00a0<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;width:100%;border-collapse:collapse\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align:

This metric includes operating expense, employee costs, administrative costs and professional services, and recurring allowance for credit losses, which cover both fixed and variable cost components. We believe that adjusted EBITDA margin is a useful measure of our profitability and efficiency, as well as our earnings quality, because it evaluates the Company on a more comparable basis
