How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA of $57.1 million"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow financial
"Adjusted Free Cash Flow ($MM)"
Adjusted free cash flow is the amount of money a company generates from its operations after accounting for essential expenses and investments, like maintaining or upgrading equipment. It shows how much cash is truly available to grow the business, pay debts, or return to shareholders, helping investors see the company's financial health more clearly.
Leverage Ratio financial
"Leverage Ratio is calculated pursuant to the Company's existing senior revolving credit facility"
Leverage ratio measures how much a company relies on borrowed money compared with its own funds or assets, typically expressed as debt relative to equity or total assets. Like a homeowner with a mortgage, higher leverage can amplify returns when business is strong but also raises the chance of big losses or default if revenue falls, so investors use it to judge financial risk and resilience.

RING ENERGY REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2026 RESULTS, UPDATES GUIDANCE AND
ADVANCES DISCIPLINED PORTFOLIO STRATEGY

Monetized Non-Core Assets, Added Core Acreage While Advancing Higher-Return Development Program and Reducing Debt

The Woodlands, TX – November 5, 2026 – Ring Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: REI) (“Ring” or the “Company”) today reported operational and financial results for the third quarter of 2026 and provided an update on its guidance, development program, portfolio optimization initiatives and balance sheet.

During the third quarter, Ring continued to execute its strategy of improving its capital efficiency and the quality of its asset portfolio while strengthening its balance sheet. The Company completed approximately $30.5 million of non-core asset sales, acquired approximately $18.8 million of leasehold interests in the Central Basin Platform (“CBP”) and reduced borrowings under its revolving credit facility by $10.0 million. The acquired leasehold is positioned within Ring's existing CBP operating footprint, supporting the Company's strategy of expanding higher-return development inventory while increasing financial flexibility. Subsequent to the quarter, on October 30th, Ring closed another divestiture of non-core assets in Gaines and Andrews Counties for ~ $13.4 million.

Management Commentary

Paul D. McKinney, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“This was an exciting and highly productive quarter for Ring. We delivered strong operational results, advanced our longer-lateral development program and took decisive steps to improve the depth and quality of our portfolio. In a single quarter, we monetized approximately $30.5 million of non-core assets, added strategic acreage in the heart of our Central Basin Platform position and reduced debt by $10.0 million.

With strong commodity prices, encouraging well performance and the cash surplus from asset dispositions, we deliberately chose to outspend adjusted free cash flow this quarter to accelerate our program. Having said that, we have not lost our focus on capital discipline – we intend to be cash flow positive during the fourth quarter and for the full year. We are proud of what our team accomplished so far this year and remain focused on debt reduction and improving our leverage ratio metrics.

Operationally, we grew production 3% from the second quarter and kept lease operating expense below the mid-point of our guidance range while drilling eight horizontal wells and completing seven, including our first five, 2-mile co-developed laterals in Crane County. These results reinforce our confidence in the development program and demonstrate the execution capability of our team.

The acreage we acquired is particularly compelling because it expands our inventory within an area we know well, where we already operate and where we see attractive opportunities to generate strong returns. By selling assets that were not expected to compete for near-term capital, we effectively recycled capital from lower-priority assets into higher-quality inventory while also strengthening the balance sheet. We believe this is a compelling example of how disciplined capital allocation can strengthen Ring and create stockholder value. We intend for this to be an integral part of our strategy going forward.

We entered 2026 focused on moving Ring into its next phase with greater capital efficiency, and the progress we made this quarter represents an important step forward. We have a stronger portfolio with a deeper inventory of low break-even development opportunities and greater financial flexibility. We are energized by the momentum across the business and believe Ring is increasingly well positioned to deliver durable and competitive, per-share value for our stockholders.”

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Total liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents plus borrowing base availability under the Company’s credit facility) at September 30, 2026 was approximately $236.4 million, consisting of $235.0 million of availability under our revolving credit facility, which included a reduction of $35 thousand for letters of credit, and approximately $1.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. On September 30, 2026, the Company had $350 million in borrowings outstanding on its credit facility that has a current borrowing base of $585 million. This reflects a reduction of $10 million from the balance of $360 million at June 30, 2026. The Company intends to continue debt reduction, dependent on market conditions, the timing and level of capital spending, and other considerations.

Drilling and Completion Activity

In 3Q 2026, the Company drilled a total of eight and completed a total of seven horizontal producing wells. Additionally, the Company completed the SWD well that was in the process of being drilled at the end of the second quarter. In the Central Basin Platform in Andrews County, the Company drilled and completed two 1.5-mile horizontal wells, both with a working interest of approximately 99%. In the Central Basin Platform in Crane County, the Company drilled six and completed five 2-mile horizontal wells, each with a working interest of 100%.

The table below sets forth Ring’s drilling and completion activities in the first nine months of 2026:

(2) The total does not include the SWD well that was completed in the third quarter of 2026.

Remaining Quarter of 2026 and Full-Year 2027 Sales Volumes, Capital Investment and Operating Expense Guidance

Since providing its original 2026 development outlook, Ring has continued to refine its development plan towards horizontal drilling and allocate capital toward its highest-return opportunities. This evolution reflects encouraging early well results, improved operational execution and the attractive economics associated with extended-reach laterals. Ring believes the increased concentration of longer lateral opportunities has the potential to enhance capital efficiency, improve project economics and support the Company's strategy of generating higher returns while responsibly growing production.

The guidance in the table below represents the Company's current good faith estimate of the range of likely future results. Guidance could be affected by the factors discussed below in the "Safe Harbor Statement" section.

RING ENERGY, INC.
Non-GAAP Financial Information

Certain financial information included in this release are not measures of financial performance recognized by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” or “AFCF,” “Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations” or “ACFFO,” “G&A Excluding Share-Based Compensation,” “G&A Excluding Share-Based Compensation and Transaction Costs,” “Leverage Ratio,” “Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX,” “All-In Cash Operating Costs,” and “Cash Operating Margin.” Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of performance. These disclosures may not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be reported by other companies.

Reconciliation of Net income (loss) to Adjusted Net Income

“Adjusted Net Income” is calculated as net income (loss) minus the estimated after-tax impact of share-based compensation, ceiling test impairment, unrealized gains and losses on changes in the fair value of derivatives, and transaction costs for acquisitions and divestitures (“A&D”). Adjusted Net Income is presented because the timing and amount of these items cannot be reasonably estimated and affect the comparability of operating results from period to period, and current period to prior periods. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income provides useful information to investors as it is one of the metrics management uses to assess the Company’s ongoing operating and financial performance, and also is a useful metric for investors to compare the Company’s results with its peers.

Reconciliation of Net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA

The Company defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income (loss) plus net interest expense (including interest income and expense), unrealized loss (gain) on change in fair value of derivatives, ceiling test impairment, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization, asset retirement obligation accretion, transaction costs for acquisitions and divestitures (A&D), share-based compensation, loss (gain) on disposal of assets, and backing out the effect of other income. Company management believes Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful because it helps investors understand Ring’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare its results with those of other companies that have different financing, capital and tax structures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income, as an indication of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA, as Ring calculates it, may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use.

Reconciliations of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted Free Cash Flow

The Company defines “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” or “AFCF” as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities (as reflected on the Company’s Condensed Statements of Cash Flows) less changes in operating assets and liabilities, and plus transaction costs for acquisitions and divestitures (“A&D”), current income tax expense (benefit), proceeds from divestitures of oil and natural gas properties, loss (gain) on disposal of assets, and less capital expenditures, credit loss expense, and other income. For this purpose, the Company’s definition of capital expenditures includes costs incurred related to oil and natural gas properties (such as drilling and infrastructure costs and lease maintenance costs) but excludes acquisition costs of oil and gas properties from third parties that are not included in the Company’s capital expenditures guidance provided to investors. Management believes that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is an important financial performance measure for use in evaluating the performance and efficiency of the Company’s current operating activities after the impact of capital expenditures and net interest expense (including interest income and expense, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and without being impacted by items such as changes associated with working capital, which can vary substantially from one period to another. Other companies may use different definitions of Adjusted Free Cash Flow.

Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations

The Company defines “Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations” or “ACFFO” as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities, as reflected in the Company’s Condensed Statements of Cash Flows, less the changes in operating assets and liabilities, which includes accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, and settlement of asset retirement obligations, which are subject to variation due to the nature of the Company’s operations. Accordingly, the Company believes this financial performance measure is useful to investors because it is used often in its industry and allows investors to compare this metric to other companies in its peer group as well as the E&P sector.

Calculation of Leverage Ratio

“Leverage” or the “Leverage Ratio” is calculated pursuant to the Company’s existing senior revolving credit facility and means as of any date, the ratio of (i) Consolidated Total Debt as of such date to (ii) Consolidated EBITDAX for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or immediately prior to such date for which financial statements are required to have been delivered under the credit facility.

The Company defines “Consolidated Total Debt” in accordance with its existing senior revolving credit facility and means, as of any date, all Indebtedness of the Company on a consolidated basis as of such date, but excluding hedging obligations.

The Company defines “Indebtedness” in accordance with its existing senior revolving credit facility and generally means (i) all obligations of the Company for borrowed money, (ii) all obligations of the Company evidenced by notes or other similar instruments, (iii) all obligations of the Company in respect of the deferred purchase price of property or services, (iv) all obligations of the Company under any conditional sale relating to property acquired the Company, (v) all capital lease obligations of the Company, (vi) all obligations, contingent or otherwise, of the Company in respect of letters of credit or similar extensions of credit, (vii) all guarantees of the Company of the type of Indebtedness described in clauses (i) through (vi) above, (viii) all Indebtedness of a third party secured by any lien on property owned by the Company, whether or not such Indebtedness has been assumed by the Company, (ix) all off-balance sheet liabilities, (x) all hedging obligations and (xi) the undischarged balance of any production payment created by the Company or for the creation of which the Company directly or indirectly received payment.

The Company defines “Consolidated EBITDAX” in accordance with its existing senior revolving credit facility and means for any period an amount equal to the sum of (i) consolidated net income (loss) for such period plus (ii) to the extent deducted in determining consolidated net income (loss) for such period, and without duplication, (A) consolidated interest expense, (B) income tax expense (benefit) determined on a consolidated basis, (C) depreciation, depletion and amortization determined on a consolidated basis, (D) exploration expenses determined on a consolidated basis, and (E) all other non-cash charges reasonably acceptable to the administrative agent, in each case for such period minus (iii) all noncash income added to consolidated net income (loss) for such period; provided that, for purposes of calculating compliance with the financial covenants under the credit facility, to the extent that during such period the Company has consummated an acquisition permitted by the credit facility or any sale, transfer or other disposition of any property or assets permitted by the credit facility, Consolidated EBITDAX will be calculated on a pro forma basis with respect to the property or assets acquired or disposed of.

The maximum permitted Leverage Ratio under the senior revolving credit facility is 3.00. The following tables show the leverage ratio calculations for the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025.

Calculation of Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX

The Company defines Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX as Consolidated Total Debt divided by LQA (“Last Quarter Annualized”) Consolidated EBITDAX. Consolidated Total Debt and Consolidated EBITDAX are defined pursuant to the Company’s existing senior revolving credit facility. The Company believes this metric is more reflective of its current leverage ratio profile by annualizing Consolidated EBITDAX for the most recent period. Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX and Consolidated EBTIDAX are non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered as a substitute for measured prepared in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view this ratio and Consolidated EBITDAX as supplemental to its entire financial statements.

All-In Cash Operating Costs

The Company defines All-In Cash Operating Costs, a non-GAAP financial measure, as “all in cash” costs which includes lease operating expenses, G&A costs excluding share-based compensation, net interest expense (including interest income and expense, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), workovers and other operating expenses, production taxes, ad valorem taxes, and gathering/transportation costs. Management believes that this metric provides useful additional information to investors to assess the Company’s operating costs in comparison to its peers, which may vary from company to company.

Cash Operating Margin

The Company defines Cash Operating Margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, as realized revenues per Boe less “all-in cash operating costs” per Boe. Management believes that this metric provides useful additional information to investors to assess the Company’s operating margins in comparison to its peers, which may vary from company to company.

Ring Energy, Inc. Q3 2026 Earnings | November 6, 2026 | NYSE American: REI Forward–Looking Statements This Presentation includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Presentation, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, guidance, plans and objectives of management are forward- looking statements. When used in this Presentation, the words “could,” “may,” “will,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “guidance,” “project,” “goal,” “plan,” “potential,” “probably,” “strategy,” “target” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward- looking statements contain such identifying words. Forward-looking statements also include assumptions and projections for 2026 and 2027 guidance for sales volumes, number of potential well locations and associated inventory life, oil, NGL and natural gas mix as a percentage of total sales, capital expenditures, and operating expenses and the projected impacts thereon, and the number of wells expected to be drilled and completed. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to expectations is subject to a number of material risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: declines in oil, natural gas liquids or natural gas prices; the level of success in exploration, development and production activities; adverse weather conditions that may negatively impact development or production activities particularly in the winter; the timing of exploration and development expenditures; inaccuracies of reserve estimates or assumptions underlying them; revisions to reserve estimates as a result of changes in commodity prices; impacts to financial statements as a result of impairment write-downs; risks related to level of indebtedness and periodic redeterminations of the borrowing base and interest rates under the Company’s credit facility; Ring’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet the internally funded portion of its capital expenditures budget; the impacts of hedging on results of operations; the effects of future regulatory or legislative actions; cost and availability of transportation and storage capacity as a result of natural gas oversupply, changes in U.S. energy, environmental, monetary and trade policies, including with respect to tariffs or other trade barriers, and any resulting trade tensions; political instability or armed conflict in major oil and natural gas producing regions outside the United States, including military hostilities in the Middle East (including the recent conflict between the United States and Iran), Russia, and Ukraine; and Ring’s ability to replace oil and natural gas reserves. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that are disclosed in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and its other filings with the SEC. All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this Presentation are expressly qualified by the cautionary statements and by reference to the underlying assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof, except as required by applicable law. The financial and operating estimates contained in this Presentation represent our reasonable estimates as of the date of this Presentation. Neither our independent auditors nor any other third party has examined, reviewed or compiled the estimates and, accordingly, none of the foregoing expresses an opinion or other form of assurance with respect thereto. The assumptions upon which the estimates are based are described in more detail herein. Some of these assumptions inevitably will not materialize, and unanticipated events may occur that could affect our results. Therefore, our actual results achieved during the periods covered by the estimates will vary from the estimated results. Investors are not to place undue reliance on the estimates included herein. 2 Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures This Presentation includes financial measures that are not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), such as “Adjusted Net Income”, “Adjusted EBITDA,” “PV-10,” “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” or “AFCF,” “Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations” or “ACFFO,” “Cash Return on Capital Employed” or “CROCE,” “Leverage Ratio,” “Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX,” “All-in Cash Operating Costs,” and “Cash Operating Margin.” While management believes that such measures are useful for investors, they should not be used as a replacement for financial measures that are in accordance with GAAP. See Appendix for definitions and reconciliation to GAAP measures. Forward-Looking Statements and Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Ring Energy, Inc. Q3 2026 Earnings | November 6, 2026 | NYSE American: REI “Leverage” or the “Leverage Ratio” is calculated pursuant to the Company’s existing senior revolving credit facility and means as of any date, the ratio of (i) Consolidated Total Debt as of such date to (ii) Consolidated EBITDAX for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or immediately prior to such date for which financial statements are required to have been delivered under the credit facility. The Company defines “Consolidated Total Debt” in accordance with its existing senior revolving credit facility and means, as of any date, all Indebtedness of the Company on a consolidated basis as of such date, but excluding hedging obligations. The Company defines “Consolidated EBITDAX” in accordance with its existing senior revolving credit facility and means for any period an amount equal to the sum of (i) consolidated net income (loss) for such period plus (ii) to the extent deducted in determining consolidated net income (loss) for such period, and without duplication, (A) consolidated interest expense, (B) income tax expense (benefit) determined on a consolidated basis, (C) depreciation, depletion and amortization determined on a consolidated basis, (D) exploration expenses determined on a consolidated basis, and (E) all other non-cash charges reasonably acceptable to the administrative agent, in each case for such period minus (iii) all noncash income added to consolidated net income (loss) for such period; provided that, for purposes of calculating compliance with the financial covenants under the credit facility, to the extent that during such period the Company has consummated an acquisition permitted by the credit facility or any sale, transfer or other disposition of any property or assets permitted by the credit facility, Consolidated EBITDAX will be calculated on a pro forma basis with respect to the property or assets acquired or disposed of. The maximum permitted Leverage Ratio under the senior revolving credit facility is 3.00. The Company defines “Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX” as Consolidated Total Debt divided by LQA (“Last Quarter Annualized”) Consolidated EBITDAX. Consolidated Total Debt and Consolidated EBITDAX are defined pursuant to the Company’s existing senior revolving credit facility. The Company believes this metric is more reflective of its current leverage ratio profile by annualizing Consolidated EBITDAX for the most recent period. Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX and Consolidated EBTIDAX are non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view this ratio and Consolidated EBITDAX as supplemental to its entire financial statements. PV-10 is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from a financial measure under GAAP known as “standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows” in that PV-10 is calculated without including future income taxes. Management believes that the presentation of the PV-10 measure of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties is relevant and useful to investors because it presents the estimated discounted future net cash flows attributable to its estimated proved reserves independent of its income tax attributes, thereby isolating the intrinsic value of the estimated future cash flows attributable to its reserves. Management believes the use of a pre-tax measure provides greater comparability of assets when evaluating companies because the timing and quantification of future income taxes is dependent on company-specific factors, many of which are difficult to determine. For these reasons, management uses and believes that the industry generally uses the PV-10 measure in evaluating and comparing acquisition candidates and assessing the potential rate of return on investments in oil and natural gas properties. PV-10 does not necessarily represent the fair market value of oil and natural gas properties. PV-10 is not a measure of financial or operational performance under GAAP, nor should it be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows as defined under GAAP. The Company defines “Cash Return on Capital Employed” or “CROCE” as Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations divided by average debt and shareholder equity for the period. The Company defines All-In Cash Operating Costs, a non-GAAP financial measure, as “all in cash” costs which includes lease operating expenses, G&A costs excluding share-based compensation, net interest expense (including interest income and expense, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), workovers and other operating expenses, production taxes, ad valorem taxes, and gathering/transportation costs. Management believes that this metric provides useful additional information to investors to assess the Company’s operating costs in comparison to its peers, which may vary from company to company. The Company defines Cash Operating Margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, as realized revenues per Boe less “all-in cash operating costs” per Boe. Management believes that this metric provides useful additional information to investors to assess the Company’s operating margins in comparison to its peers, which may vary from company to company. Non-GAAP Disclosure Certain financial information included in this Presentation are not measures of financial performance recognized by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” or “AFCF,” “Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations” or “ACFFO,” “Cash Return on Capital Employed” or “CROCE,” “PV-10,” “Leverage Ratio,” “Consolidated Total Debt to LQA Consolidated EBITDAX,” “All-in Cash Operating Costs,” and "Cash Operating Margin." Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of performance. In addition, CROCE is a key metric used to determine a portion of the Company’s incentive compensation awards. These disclosures may not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be reported by other companies. “Adjusted Net Income” is calculated as net income (loss) minus the estimated after-tax impact of share-based compensation, ceiling test impairment, unrealized gains and losses on changes in the fair value of derivatives, and transaction costs for acquisitions and divestitures (“A&D”). Adjusted Net Income is presented because the timing and amount of these items cannot be reasonably estimated and affect the comparability of operating results from period to period, and current period to prior periods. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income provides useful information to investors as it is one of the metrics management uses to assess the Company’s ongoing operating and financial performance, and also is a useful metric for investors to compare the Company’s results with its peers. The Company defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income (loss) plus net interest expense (including interest income and expense), unrealized loss (gain) on change in fair value of derivatives, ceiling test impairment, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization, asset retirement obligation accretion, transaction costs for acquisitions and divestitures (A&D), share-based compensation, loss (gain) on disposal of assets, and backing out the effect of other income. Company management believes Adjusted EBITDA is relevant and useful because it helps investors understand Ring’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare its results with those of other companies that have different financing, capital and tax structures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income, as an indication of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA, as Ring calculates it, may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA measures reported by other companies. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for discretionary use. The Company defines “Adjusted Free Cash Flow” or “AFCF” as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities (as reflected on the Company’s Condensed Statements of Cash Flows) less changes in operating assets and liabilities, and plus transaction costs for acquisitions and divestitures (“A&D”), current income tax expense (benefit), proceeds from divestitures of oil and natural gas properties, loss (gain) on disposal of assets, and less capital expenditures, credit loss expense, and other income. For this purpose, the Company’s definition of capital expenditures includes costs incurred related to oil and natural gas properties (such as drilling and infrastructure costs and lease maintenance costs) but excludes acquisition costs of oil and gas properties from third parties that are not included in the Company’s capital expenditures guidance provided to investors. Management believes that Adjusted Free Cash Flow is an important financial performance measure for use in evaluating the performance and efficiency of the Company’s current operating activities after the impact of capital expenditures and net interest expense (including interest income and expense, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and without being impacted by items such as changes associated with working capital, which can vary substantially from one period to another. Other companies may use different definitions of Adjusted Free Cash Flow. The Company defines “Adjusted Cash Flow from Operations” or “ACFFO” as Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities, as reflected in the Company’s Condensed Statements of Cash Flows, less the changes in operating assets and liabilities, which includes accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, and settlement of asset retirement obligations, which are subject to variation due to the nature of the Company’s operations. Accordingly, the Company believes this financial performance measure is useful to investors because it is used often in its industry and allows investors to compare this metric to other companies in its peer group as well as the E&P sector. The table below provides detail of PV-10 to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows as of December 31, 2025. ($ in 000’s) Present value of estimated future net revenues (PV-10) $ 1,318,208 Future income taxes, discounted at 10% $ 194,715 Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows $ 1,123,493 23
