Third Quarter 2026 Highlights
•Grew daily production 9% to 34,641 barrels of oil equivalent (“Boe”) per day (55% oil), from 31,925 Boe per day for the third quarter of 2025.
•Reported net loss of $10.1 million, or $0.08 net loss per share, versus net income of $14.5 million, or $0.11 net income per diluted share, for the prior year period. Adjusted Net Income (non-GAAP) totaled $22.6 million, or $0.17 Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share (non-GAAP).

See “Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for descriptions of the above non-GAAP measures as well as a reconciliation of these measures to the associated GAAP (as defined herein) measures.
Tyler Farquharson, President and CEO of Granite Ridge, commented, “Our reported third quarter Adjusted EBITDAX was the highest in our history as a public company, and it gives a clear view of where our business is heading. In 2027, the roll-off of our lower-priced 2026 hedges, anticipated production growth and a higher oil weighting build on that record without relying on today’s oil prices, and at current strip prices we expect adjusted free cash flow to comfortably cover the dividend and grow our business.
“We are also announcing a new partner to our Operated Partnership platform. Arete Creek Resources is a Midland-based operator focused on the Midland Basin. Its team has drilled and produced more than 200 horizontal wells together and has built five prior Permian ventures. Like our flagship partnership, Admiral Permian, Arete Creek sources acreage and near-term development opportunities through its own leasing and relationships, we provide the majority of the capital, and we control what gets drilled and when. Arete Creek spud its first well under our partnership in October, and we expect it to run one rig in 2027.
“Finally, our Board has authorized the repurchase of up to $35 million of our common stock through 2027 giving us another way to return capital to shareholders alongside our dividend.”
Financial Results
Oil and natural gas sales for the third quarter of 2026 were $177.2 million. Net loss was $10.1 million, or $0.08 net loss per share. Excluding non-cash and special items, Adjusted Net Income (non-GAAP) was $22.6 million, or $0.17 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDAX (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $107.3 million compared to $78.6 million for the third quarter of 2025. Cash flow from operating activities was $87.7 million, including $8.9 million in working capital changes. Operating Cash Flow Before Working Capital Changes (non-GAAP) was $96.6 million and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP) was $13.7 million.
Production Results
Third quarter 2026 oil production volumes totaled 18,957 barrels (“Bbls”) per day, a 17% increase from the third quarter of 2025. Natural gas production for the third quarter of 2026 totaled 94,087 thousand cubic feet of natural gas (“Mcf”) per day, in line with third quarter 2025 production of 94,217 thousand cubic feet of natural gas (“Mcf”) per day.

Operating Costs
Lease operating expenses were $30.1 million in the third quarter of 2026, or $9.43 per Boe, a 17% increase on a per unit basis compared to the third quarter of 2025 as a result of increased saltwater disposal costs due to higher water cuts and flowback operations, and related surface equipment rentals and contract labor.

Items contemplating or making assumptions about actual or potential future production and sales, market size, collaborations, and trends or operating results also constitute such forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond Granite Ridge’s control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following: changes in Granite Ridge’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans, changes in current or future commodity prices and interest rates, supply chain disruptions, infrastructure constraints and related factors affecting our properties, ability to acquire additional development opportunities and potential or pending acquisition transactions, as well as the effects of such acquisitions on the Company’s cash position and levels of indebtedness, changes in reserves estimates or the value thereof, operational risks including, but not limited to, the pace of drilling and completions activity on our properties, changes in the markets in which Granite Ridge competes, geopolitical risk and changes in applicable laws, legislation, or regulations, including those relating to environmental matters, cyber-related risks, the fact that reserve estimates depend on many assumptions that may turn out to be inaccurate and that any material inaccuracies in reserve estimates or underlying assumptions will materially affect the quantities and present value of Granite Ridge’s reserves, the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings, limited liquidity and trading of Granite Ridge’s securities, acts of war, terrorism or uncertainty regarding the effects and duration of global hostilities, including the Israel-Hamas conflict, the Russia-Ukraine war, the conflict in Iran, continued instability in the Middle East, and any associated armed conflicts or related sanctions which may disrupt commodity prices and create instability in the financial markets, and market conditions and global, regulatory, technical, and economic factors beyond Granite Ridge’s control, including the potential adverse effects of world health events, affecting capital markets, general economic conditions, global supply chains, uncertainties with respect to trade policies (including the imposition of tariffs) and Granite Ridge’s business and operations, increasing regulatory and investor emphasis on, and attention to, environmental, social and governance matters, our ability to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, and the other risks described under the heading “Item 1A.

Granite Ridge has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations and assumptions about future events.

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, the Company believes certain non-GAAP performance measures may provide financial statement users with additional meaningful comparisons between current results, the results of its peers and the results of prior periods. In addition, the Company believes these measures are used by analysts and others in the valuation, rating and investment recommendations of companies within the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry. See the reconciliations throughout this release of GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures for the periods indicated.
Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDAX
Adjusted EBITDAX is presented herein and reconciled from the GAAP measure of net income (loss) because of its wide acceptance by the investment community as a financial indicator.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as net income (loss) before depletion and accretion expense, unrealized (gain) loss on derivatives – commodity derivatives, interest expense, net, non-cash stock-based compensation, income tax expense (benefit), impairment of unproved properties, impairments of long-lived assets, (gain) loss on equity investments, and other, net. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income or cash flows as determined by GAAP.
The Company’s Adjusted EBITDAX measure provides additional information that may be used to better understand the Company’s operations. Adjusted EBITDAX is one of several metrics that the Company uses as a supplemental financial measurement in the evaluation of its business and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as an indicator of operating performance. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic cost of depreciable and depletable assets. Adjusted EBITDAX, as used by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDAX is a widely followed measure of operating performance and is one of many metrics used by the Company’s management team and by other users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For example, Adjusted EBITDAX can be used to assess the Company’s operating performance and return on capital in comparison to other independent exploration and production companies without regard to financial or capital structure, and to assess the financial performance of the Company’s assets and the Company without regard to capital structure or historical cost basis.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the GAAP measure of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDAX for the periods indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended September 30, | | Nine Months Ended September 30, | | |

| Adjusted EBITDAX | $ | 107,273 | | | $ | 78,643 | | | $ | 257,807 | | | $ | 245,463 | | | | | |
The Company defines Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDAX as the accumulation of the prior twelve months Adjusted EBITDAX. Adjusted EBITDAX for each of the quarters ended December 31, 2025, March 31, 2026, and June 30, 2026 were previously reported in an earnings release relating to the applicable quarter, and the reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDAX for each quarter is included in the applicable earnings release.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the GAAP measure of net income to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDAX for the period indicated:
| | | | | |
| Trailing Twelve Months Ended September 30, |
| (in thousands) | 2026 |
| Net loss | $ | (52,149) | |

| Unrealized loss on derivatives - commodity derivatives | 45,252 | |
| (Gain) loss on equity investments | (3,837) | |
| Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDAX | $ | 327,305 | |
Reconciliation of Debt to Net Debt
The Company provides Net Debt, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines Net Debt as current portion of long-term debt, plus long-term debt, net, less cash as of the balance sheet date. The Company’s Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDAX provides investors with insight into the Company’s leverage as of the measurement date.
The following table provides a reconciliation from the GAAP measure of Debt to Net Debt and Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDAX ratio:
| | | | | |

| Net Debt | $ | 416,609 | |
| |
| Net Debt to Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDAX Ratio | 1.3 | |
Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share
The Company provides Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share represent earnings and diluted earnings (loss) per share determined under GAAP without regard to certain non-cash and nonrecurring items. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net income as determined under GAAP excluding impairments of long-lived assets, unrealized (gain) loss on derivatives - commodity derivatives, (gain) loss on equity investments, certain nonrecurring general and administrative expenses, recognition of valuation allowance, (gain) loss on disposal of oil and gas properties, and tax impact on above adjustments.
The Company defines Adjusted Earnings Per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average number of diluted shares of common stock outstanding.
The Company believes these measures provide useful information to analysts and investors for analysis of its operating results on a recurring, comparable basis from period to period. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings Per Share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for earnings or diluted earnings per share as determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table provides a reconciliation from the GAAP measure of net income (loss) to Adjusted Net Income, both in total and on a per diluted share basis, for the periods indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Operating Cash Flow Before Working Capital Changes and to Adjusted Free Cash Flow
The Company provides Operating Cash Flow (“OCF”) Before Working Capital Changes, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines OCF Before Working Capital Changes as net cash provided by operating activities as determined under GAAP excluding changes in operating assets and liabilities such as: changes in cash due to changes in operating assets and liabilities, revenue receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, prepaid and other current assets, and other liabilities and long-term payables. The Company believes OCF Before Working Capital Changes is useful information to analysts and investors by presenting the Company’s ability to generate capital with its operations.
Additionally, the Company provides Adjusted Free Cash Flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines Adjusted Free Cash Flow as OCF Before Working Capital Changes minus capital expenditures for oil and natural gas properties. The Company believes that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is useful to investors as it provides measures to compare cash from operating activities and capital expenditures for oil and natural gas properties across periods on a consistent basis. Adjusted Free Cash Flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance, and it should not be inferred that the entire amount of Adjusted Free Cash Flow is available for dividends, acquisitions or other growth opportunities, share repurchases, or other discretionary expenditures, since the Company has mandatory debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from this measure.
This non-GAAP measure should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as an indicator of operating performance.
The following table provides a reconciliation from the GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities to OCF Before Working Capital Changes and to Adjusted Free Cash Flow:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
