#### 2025 PROXY STATEMENT

#### OUR STRENGTHS
• High quality asset base in one of North America’s leading oil and gas producing regions characterized by relatively low declines and attractive margins;

• De-risked Permian Basin acreage position with multi-year drilling inventory of horizontal and vertical development potential;

• Concentrated acreage position with high degree of operational control;

• Experienced and proven management team with substantive technical and operational expertise;

• Operating control over most of our production and development activities; and

• Commitment to cost efficient operations, health, safety, protecting the environment, our employees, and the communities in which we work and operate

### OURSTRATEGIC PRIORITIES
Ring has historically capitalized on its low-risk, high-return asset base that is focused on the conventional San Andres reservoir in the Permian Basin, which is one of the most prolific hydrocarbon producing regions in the U.S. As compared to unconventional plays, the San Andres offers much lower initial year and subsequent decline rates for production, which helps generate high rates of return and low breakeven economics. Subsequent to recent asset acquisitions also in the Permian Basin, Ring's focus has now expanded to additional low-risk, high-return assets, being the vertical section between the Glorieta and Devonian Formations.
