W&T Offshore Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results and
Declares Dividend for Third Quarter of 2026
HOUSTON, August 5, 2026 – W&T Offshore, Inc. (NYSE: WTI) (“W&T,” the “Company,” “we” or “us”) today reported operational and financial results for the second quarter of 2026 and declared a third quarter 2026 dividend of $0.01 per share.
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses and Net Debt, which are reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measures in the accompanying tables to this press release under “Non-GAAP Information.”
Second Quarter 2026 Highlights
| ● | Produced 34.7 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (“MBoe/d”) (49% liquids), at the midpoint of the Company’s guidance and up 3% from the same period in 2025; |
| ● | Incurred $71.6 million in lease operating expenses, below the lower end of guidance; |
| ● | Reported net income of $12.6 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, up significantly from a net loss of $22.5 million, or $(0.15) per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2026; |
| ● | Adjusted Net Income totaled $3.5 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with an Adjusted Net Loss of $5.1 million, or $(0.03) per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2026; |
| ● | Increased Free Cash Flow by 50% to $31.4 million compared with $21.0 million in the first quarter of 2026; |
| ● | Generated Adjusted EBITDA of $54.4 million, with $108.9 million of Adjusted EBITDA generated in the first half of 2026; |
| ● | Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses decreased 5% to $16.4 million compared with $17.4 million in the first quarter of 2026; |
| ● | Grew unrestricted cash and cash equivalents 15% to $150.7 million from $130.9 million at March 31, 2026, which resulted in a 9% decrease in Net Debt to $200.9 million from $220.3 million at March 31, 2026; |
| ● | Ended the second quarter of 2026 with total available liquidity of $194.1 million, which positions the Company well to pursue organic growth initiatives and acquisition opportunities; |
| ● | As the previously disclosed surety lawsuits continue to progress, W&T is working with damages experts to quantify our claims. While the results of the surety lawsuits remain uncertain, and there can be no assurance of a successful result, management believes, based in part on the preliminary report of the damages experts, that the Company, assuming we prevail in the litigation (including on our antitrust claims), would possibly have claims against the sureties that could reach hundreds of millions of dollars, and these damages would be statutorily trebled. This estimate reflects management's current assessment and may change as the damages analysis and litigation proceed; |
| ● | Paid 11th consecutive quarterly dividend of $0.01 per share on May 18, 2026 and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.01 per share for the third quarter of 2026, payable on August 26, 2026 to shareholders of record on August 19, 2026. |

Management Commentary
Tracy W. Krohn, W&T’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The second quarter of 2026 was another successful quarter of operational and financial results, with Adjusted EBITDA of $54.4 million, and Free Cash Flow of $31.4 million. In the first half of 2026, we generated almost $110 million of Adjusted EBITDA, and over $50 million in Free Cash Flow, all while decreasing our Net Debt position. We continue to strengthen our balance sheet, while adding financial flexibility that should allow us to continue to evaluate accretive acquisition opportunities. Acquisitions remain a key component of our success, and it is our ability to integrate and enhance the assets that we acquire that has allowed us to grow reserves and production over the past 40 years.
Operationally, we reported production at the midpoint of our guidance range and benefited from strong realized pricing in the second quarter. Our average realized price per BOE was up 11% compared to the first quarter of 2026. Additionally, our LOE costs were below the low end of our guidance range, which demonstrates our commitment to cost efficient operations. With consistent production, increasing realized pricing and continued cost control, we believe that we are well positioned operationally and financially to deliver robust results in the second half of 2026. I believe the market is beginning to reflect our strong results in our increased share price, but with the Free Cash Flow generation and our continued commitment to dividends, I believe that we are still significantly undervalued. We remain committed to operational excellence, enhancing shareholder value and believe that W&T is on the right path for success well into the future.”

Lease operating expenses for the second quarter of 2026 were below the low end of guidance due to timing of facility and workover expense projects, which resulted in some of these expenses getting deferred to third quarter 2026.
Gathering, transportation and production taxes for the second quarter were below the low end of guidance due to the Williams Mobile Bay Gas Processing Facility being down the entire month of April for planned maintenance. W&T’s natural gas volumes stayed online during this period but bypassed the plant.
General and administrative expenses for the second quarter were up compared with the first quarter of 2026 as a result of an increase in non-cash share-based compensation costs driven by a higher share price used to value certain of the Company’s share-based compensation awards that are marked-to-market at the end of each reporting period.

Third Quarter and Full Year 2026 Production and Expense Guidance
The guidance for the third quarter and full year 2026 in the table below represents the Company’s current expectations. Please refer to the section entitled “Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements” below for risk factors that could impact guidance.
Production | Third Quarter 2026 | Full Year 2026 |
Oil (MBbls) | 1,215 – 1,340 | 4,710 – 5,210 |
NGLs (MBbls) | 405 – 450 | 1,620 – 1,820 |
Natural gas (MMcf) | 8,660 – 9,570 | 35,380 – 39,180 |
Total equivalents (MBoe) | 3,063 – 3,385 | 12,227 – 13,560 |
Average daily equivalents (MBoe/d) | 33.3 – 36.8 | 33.5 – 37.2 |
Expenses | Third Quarter 2026 | Full Year 2026 |
Lease operating expense ($MM) | 73.0 – 81.0 | 264.7 – 294.7 |
Gathering, transportation and production taxes ($MM) | 8.8 – 9.7 | 33.3 – 37.3 |
Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses ($MM) | 17.2 – 19.0 | 63.2 – 70.2 |
Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion ($ per Boe) | | 10.25 – 11.35 |
Capital Expenditures and Plugging and Abandonment | Full Year 2026 | |
Capital expenditures ($MM) | | 19.5 – 24.5 |
Plugging and Abandonment ($MM) | | 34.0 – 42.4 |
4
Third quarter 2026 production is expected to be slightly higher than second quarter. Third quarter lease operating expenses will be higher than second quarter due to approximately $3 million of facility and workover expense projects being deferred from second quarter to third quarter and approximately $2 million of workover projects moving forward from fourth quarter to third quarter. Full year 2026 capital expenditures and plugging and abandonment are expected to be towards the higher end of guidance based on acceleration of certain projects in the current supportive commodity price environment.

NON-GAAP INFORMATION
This release may include the use of various measures that have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such as, but not limited to, Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. Reconciliations for non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures are included at the end of this release.
Management provides non-GAAP financial measures because it believes such measures are widely accepted financial indicators used by investors and analysts to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance (including Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA) and liquidity (Free Cash Flow and Net Debt) and that these measures may be used by investors to make informed investment decisions. Management believes that the exclusion of certain identified items from several key operating performance measures enables it to evaluate its operations more effectively, to identify underlying trends in the business, and to establish operational goals for certain management compensation purposes. Management also believes that Free Cash Flow is an important supplemental measure of its cash performance but should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities presented in accordance with GAAP.
