Press Release
Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating LLC
Announces Pricing of Offering of $500 Million
Senior Notes
HOUSTON, TX, July 22, 2026 – Magnolia Oil & Gas Operating
LLC (“Magnolia Operating”) and Magnolia Oil & Gas Finance Corp., a subsidiary of Magnolia Operating, (“Finance Corp.”
and, together with Magnolia Operating, the “Issuers”) announced today the pricing of their previously announced private offering
(the “Notes Offering”) of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior unsecured notes due 2034 (the “Notes”).
The closing of the Notes Offering is expected to occur on August 5,
2026, and is conditioned upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds from the Notes
Offering, together with proceeds from the offering of Class A common stock by Magnolia Oil & Gas Corporation (“Magnolia”),
which closed on July 22, 2026, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand, to fund the cash consideration payable
by us in our acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests of WildFire Intermediate Holdings,
LLC from WildFire Energy I LLC (the “Pending Acquisition”).
The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the
United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities
Act and applicable state securities laws. The Issuers plan to offer and sell the Notes only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant
to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under
the Securities Act.
This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of
an offer to buy the Notes or any other security of the Issuers, and shall not constitute an offer
to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale, of the Notes or any other security of the Issuers in any jurisdiction in which
such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. The Notes Offering is being made solely pursuant to a private offering memorandum and only
to such persons and in such jurisdictions as are permitted under applicable law.

regarding the completion of the Notes Offering, the Pending Acquisition, Magnolia’s strategy, future operations, financial

statements. When used in this press release, the words could, should, will, may, believe, anticipate, intend, estimate, expect,

Magnolia, incident to the development, production, gathering and sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. In addition,
Magnolia cautions you that the forward looking statements contained in this press release are subject to the following factors: (i)
the expected timetable for completing the Pending Acquisition, the results, effects and benefits of the Pending Acquisition, future
opportunities for Magnolia, other plans and expectations with respect to the Pending Acquisition, and the anticipated impact of the
Pending Acquisition on Magnolia’s results of operations, financial position, growth opportunities and competitive position;
(ii) the market prices of oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids (“NGLs”), and other products or services; (iii) the
supply and demand for oil, natural gas, NGLs, and other products or services, including impacts of actions taken by OPEC and other
state-controlled oil companies; (iv) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Magnolia; (v)
Magnolia’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits of its acquisitions, which may be affected by, among other things,
competition and the ability of Magnolia to grow and manage growth profitably; (vi) legislative, regulatory, or policy changes,
including those following the change in presidential administrations; (vii) geopolitical and business conditions in key regions of
the world; (viii) cybersecurity threats, including increased use of artificial intelligence technologies; and (ix) the possibility
that Magnolia may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors, including inflation. Should one or
more of the risks or uncertainties described in this press release occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual
results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning
these and other factors that may impact the operations and projections discussed herein can be found in Magnolia’s filings
