GENERAL INFORMATION**</div>

**This proxy statement (this “Proxy Statement”) contains information related to the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Nine Energy Service, Inc. (either individually or together with its subsidiaries, as the context requires, the “Company,” “Nine,” “we,” “us” and “our”).

On or about March 20, 2025, we will send you a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, which will provide instructions on how to view our proxy materials over the Internet and, if desired, request a full set of printed materials by mail. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) permits companies to send such a notice instead of a full printed set of proxy materials. We believe this process expedites the delivery of proxy materials, ensures that proxy materials remain easily accessible to our stockholders,
