**Exhibit 99.1**![LOGO](g473232dsp01.jpg)

**Talos Energy Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results, Provides 2023 Guidance, and Announces Major CCS Acreage Expansion in Southeast Texas** 

**Houston, Texas,** February 28, 2023 – Talos Energy Inc. ("Talos" or the "Company") (NYSE: TALO) today announced its operational and financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The Company also announced its year-end 2022 reserves figures pro forma for the recently closed acquisition, as well as 2023 operational and financial guidance for the combined company. Finally, Talos announced its participation in a major onshore CO<sub>2</sub> sequestration leasehold in southeast Texas, bringing gross storage capacity in the region to more than 1 billion tons of CO<sub>2</sub> in close proximity to multiple large industrial markets.

**Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights:** 

• Production of 56.6 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day ("MBoe/d") (68% oil, 76% liquids),
inclusive of impacts from loop currents, planned and unplanned maintenance, and other miscellaneous items.

excluding hedges<sup>(1)</sup> of $242.3 million.

• Capital Expenditures of $155.9 million, inclusive of plugging and abandonment and the settlement of
decommissioning obligations.

• Advanced sustainability disclosure with the issuance of 3<sup>rd</sup>
ESG report and inaugural TCFD report.

**Full Year 2022 Highlights:** 

• Production of 59.5 MBoe/d (67% oil, 75% liquids).

• Net Income of $381.9 million, or $4.56 Net Income per diluted share, and Adjusted Net Income<sup>(1)</sup> of $244.1 million, or $2.92 Adjusted Net Income per diluted share<sup>(1)</sup>.

• Adjusted EBITDA<sup>(1)</sup> of $841.8 million; Adjusted EBITDA
excluding hedges<sup>(1)</sup> of $1,267.3 million.

• Net cash provided by operating activities of $709.7 million.

• Repaid $392.5 million in credit facility borrowings and second lien notes in 2022.

• Announced and subsequently closed the acquisition of EnVen Energy Corporation ("EnVen") for
approximately $1.1 billion.

• Enhanced the Carbon Capture & Sequestration ("CCS") portfolio to nearly 1 billion metrics
tons of saline aquifer storage capacity and added strategic partners.

**2023 Guidance and Long-Term Outlook** 

• Pro forma Proved reserves (1P reserves) at year-end 2022 of 190.0 MMBoe,
with a standardized measure of $6.0 billion and with a PV-10 <sup>(1)(4)</sup> of $7.2 billion<sup>(2)</sup> at year end
based on SEC prices (price sensitivity included further below).

• Production between 72.0 and 76.0 MBoe/d, including 10.5 months of production from the recent EnVen acquisition.

• Oil and gas capital investments of $650 to $675 million focused on developing recent drilling successes.

• CCS investments between $70 and $90 million, which may grow as additional key milestones and further
portfolio expansions are achieved.

• Expected production growth of approximately 20-25% between 2023 and 2026,
or a compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 6-8% per year over the same period.

• Projected cumulative Adjusted Free Cash Flow<sup>(5)</sup> of $1.7-$2.0 billion through 2026, assuming current strip pricing or $2.0-$2.5 billion assuming a flat $75/Bbl and $3.50/Mcf price deck, equating to approximately 75%-90% and 90%-110% of the Company's current market capitalization, respectively.

• Capital allocation framework focused on continued debt reduction, investment in key Upstream and CCS catalysts,
and providing a path towards returning capital to shareholders. Additionally, Talos would consider participating in share repurchases in the event of any potential significant monetization by private equity holders, subject to Board approvals.

Talos President and Chief Executive Officer Timothy S. Duncan commented: "2022 was full of milestones for Talos. We used our meaningful free cash flow generation to pay our revolver borrowings to zero at year-end. We also ended the year with a leverage ratio of 0.7x – well below our goal of 1.0x or below – and ended the year with record liquidity. In late 2022 we announced and closed in February 2023 a major acquisition that not only adds significant scale and asset diversity to our portfolio but is also very beneficial to Talos's shareholders. In our CCS business, we completed a first-of-its-kind CO<sub>2</sub> storage transaction with Chevron early in the year, welcoming their considerable experience into our Bayou Bend project in southeast Texas."

Duncan continued: "We have a very positive outlook as we look forward to a busy 2023. Over the last four months, and pro-forma for our recent transaction, we have drilled six successful wells from our open water subsea and platform rig programs. We are prioritizing the acceleration to first oil from these discoveries in our 2023 capital program, with the most impactful production growth in 2024. We believe our remaining 2023 projects will help us achieve our target production growth rate while lowering our reinvestment rate over time, providing ample capital allocation opportunities. With Talos Low Carbon Solutions, we continue to add strategic U.S. Gulf Coast leasehold for CO<sub>2</sub> storage to build the largest carbon sequestration portfolio in the United States, while advancing our efforts to build additional strategic partnerships and to attract captured CO<sub>2</sub> volumes. Today we announced exactly that—an expansion of our partnership with Chevron in Southeast Texas with an additional major leasehold acquisition, bringing our total storage capacity in the region to over 1 billion tons, one of the largest CCS project sites in the United States.

"With respect to capital allocation, our priority continues to be generating free cash flow and lowering our total quantum of debt post-closing of our recent acquisition while also investing in our key catalysts. That includes the continuation of CCS growth and potential Upstream M&A opportunities. However, we are also very focused on building out a capital return model. That could include Talos participating in a share buyback program associated with private equity shareholder liquidity events that could occur over the next several years, helping to alleviate the short-term technical impact to Talos's shareholder base. Our team is committed to building a diverse and sustainable energy company and we could not be more excited to see what the next twelve months bring."

**RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND OPERATIONS UPDATE** 

<u>EnVen Acquisition:</u> On February 13, 2023, Talos closed the previously announced acquisition of EnVen. The strategic transaction expands Talos's Gulf of Mexico operations with high margin, oil-weighted assets and significant operated infrastructure. In 2022, EnVen's estimated production was between 22.7 – 23.0 MBoe/d. Talos's full year 2023 operational and financial guidance includes 10.5 months of contributions from the acquired assets.

<u>Southeast Texas CCS:</u> Talos has elected to participate alongside Chevron in an onshore CO<sub>2</sub> sequestration leasehold in southeast Texas. Combined with the offshore Bayou Bend CCS pore space, the total acreage equates to a gross storage resource of more than 1 billion tons of CO<sub>2</sub> to serve multiple industrial markets within the region.

<u>Coastal Bend CCS:</u> In February 2023, Talos Low Carbon Solutions, Howard Energy Partners ("Howard"), the Port of Corpus Christi Authority ("POCCA") and the Texas A&M University System were selected for a $9.0 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy's Carbon Storage Assurance Facility Enterprise ("CarbonSAFE") program. Grant funding will directly reimburse a majority of upcoming technical and economic feasibility costs including a stratigraphic evaluation well, FEED studies and other key project workstreams. Award of the grant is subject to final negotiation with the Department of Energy. Additionally, Talos and Howard entered into a definitive lease agreement with the POCCA to lease the initial 13,000 acres for the sequestration storage location.

<u>Drilling & Completions Updates:</u> 

Throughout the fourth quarter of 2022 and early 2023 Talos had six successful drilling projects, inclusive of the Company's operated open water and platform rig programs, non-operated projects and projects contributed by the Company's recent EnVen acquisition. The discoveries will significantly impact production growth over the next 18 months.

• *Lime Rock and Venice:* The two prospects successfully discovered commercial quantities of oil and natural
gas. Talos expects combined gross production rates of approximately 15-20 MBoe/d from expected combined gross recoverable resources of 20-30 MMBoe. Both wells will be
subsea tie-backs to the Talos owned and operated Ram Powell facility and are expected online by the first quarter of 2024. Talos owns a 60% working interest in both wells.

• *Pompano:* The Mount Hunter development well successfully discovered commercial quantities of oil and
natural gas during the first quarter of 2023. Talos expects gross production rates of approximately 2-4 MBoe/d from expected gross recoverable resources of 5-6 MMBoe.
First production is expected by the second quarter of 2023. Talos owns a 100% working interest.

• *Lobster:* In the Lobster platform, the A-26 ST well found pay in
multiple field horizons and will achieve first production in the first quarter. Talos owns a 67% working interest. Lobster was part of the recently acquired EnVen portfolio.

------

• *Gunflint:* The Gunflint #1-ST well successfully discovered
commercial quantities of oil and gas. The well will be completed and tied back with first oil expected by mid-year 2023. Talos holds a 9.6% working interest.

• *Spruance:* The Spruance West discovery well was drilled in the fourth quarter of 2022 and was part of the
recently acquired EnVen portfolio. The well achieved an initial gross production rate of over 3.0 MBoe/d. Talos owns a 13.5% working interest.

• *Puma West:* The Puma West appraisal well ("PW #2") was drilled to a total depth of 25,995 feet
followed by a sidetrack ("PW #2ST") which was drilled geologically down-dip to a total depth of 27,650 feet (collectively the "appraisal wells"). The appraisal wells encountered
hydrocarbons in multiple sands. However, additional hydrocarbons from a subsequent well or sidetrack would likely be necessary to consider moving forward with a development. The PW #2 wellbore has been temporarily suspended with utility to allow for
future potential sidetrack opportunities. The participating parties will begin incorporating the data acquired from the appraisal wells to determine the best path forward. Talos owns a 25% working interest with Chevron (25%) and bp (50% and
Operator).

(1) This table summarizes year end 2022 reserves of each of Talos and EnVen collectively. The proved undeveloped
reserves of EnVen are based on EnVen's development plans and NSAI's reserve estimation methodologies. Because Talos will develop such proved undeveloped reserves in accordance with its own development plan and, in the future, will estimate
proved undeveloped reserves in accordance with its own methodologies, the estimates presented herein may not be representative of Talos's future reserve estimates with respect to these properties or the reserve estimates Talos would have
reported if it had owned such properties of EnVen as of December 31, 2022.

(2) Pro forma sensitivities are based on Talos and EnVen standalone SEC reserves databases as of December 31,
2022. Reserves volumes may fluctuate slightly based on economic limitations. Excludes PV-10s from EnVen production handling agreements categorized separately under EnVen methodologies.

**2023 OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL GUIDANCE** 

In developing its 2023 financial plan, Talos prioritized cash flow generation and the advancement of key longer-term projects that will drive shareholder value in the future. The Company incorporated the following considerations in developing its 2023 plan:

• Average daily production rates and total Upstream capital expenditures for 2023 have been focused on
success-based capital expenditures that will add material production over the next 12 to 18 months, with a material impact expected in 2024 from our recent Lime Rock and Venice successes.

• Talos elected to remove the gas-weighted Lisbon prospect from its 2023
drilling calendar despite its near-term potential production rate of approximately 8-10 MBoe/d and will preserve the opportunity for a subsequent rig program.

• The closing date of the EnVen acquisition was February 13, 2023, therefore the transaction is contributing
approximately 10.5 months of financial performance compared to an expected full year at the announcement of the acquisition in 2022.

The following table summarizes the Company's proposed 2023 operational and financial guidance:

(1) Inclusive of all Lease Operating Expenses and Workover and Maintenance

(2) Includes insurance costs

(3) Excludes non-cash equity-based compensation

(4) Includes reimbursements under production handling agreements

(5) Excludes acquisitions

(6) Includes cash interest expense on debt and finance lease, surety charges and amortization of deferred financing
costs and original issue discounts

(7) Includes CCS-specific G&A costs

Note: Due to the forward-looking nature a reconciliation of Cash Operating Expenses and G&A to the most directly comparable GAAP measure could not reconciled without unreasonable efforts.

**Key 2023 Projects** 

<u>Bulleit Recompletion:</u> Operations on the Bulleit DTR-10 Sand recompletion recommenced in February 2023 following a successful fracture stimulation, including the running of an additional casing liner due to loop currents experienced in late 2022. First production from the recompletion is expected in the first quarter of 2023.

<u>Rigolets:</u> Talos will drill the Rigolets prospect in the second quarter of 2023. If successful, Rigolets would flow via subsea tieback to the Company's Pompano platform with production achievable in the second half of 2024. Talos expects gross production rates of approximately 8 to 12 MBoe/d from gross recoverable resources of 15-30 MMBoe. Talos holds a 60% working interest.

<u>Sunspear:</u> Talos expects to drill the Sunspear prospect in late 2023, which is a contribution from the EnVen portfolio. Talos expects gross production rates of approximately 8 to 10 MBoe/d from gross recoverable resources of 12-18 MMBoe. If successful, the project would flow to the recently acquired and EnVen operated Prince platform. Talos holds a 48% working interest.

<u>Pancheron:</u> Talos expects to participate in the potentially high impact Pancheron exploration prospect in the first half of 2023 following the completion of an eight block swap in the Green Canyon and Walker Ridge area in 2022. Talos holds a 30% working interest.

<u>Zama Final Investment Decision (</u><u>"</u><u>FID</u><u>"</u><u>):</u> Talos is continuing to collaborate with partners to finalize the Zama Field Development Plan ("FDP"). The partnership is targeting the submission of the FDP to the regulator by the March 23, 2023 deadline. The partners are advancing engineering design and other workstreams in anticipation of approval in the coming months, after which the parties will then be able to move toward FID. Upon FID, Talos anticipates adding a portion of the Zama contingent resources into Proved reserves.

------

<u>CCS Investments:</u> Talos expects to grow and advance its existing project portfolio with strategic business development activities, the advancement of engineering and design work and preparation for filing multiple Class VI permit applications, including drilling multiple stratigraphic evaluation wells.

**Capital Allocation Framework** 

Talos intends to allocate its expected 2023 Adjusted Free Cash Flow as follows:

1) Further debt reduction of at least $100.0 million, primarily through RBL repayments post-closing of the EnVen acquisition. 

2) Funding of the high-growth CCS business in the event of key milestones and expansion opportunities are realized

3) Incremental Adjusted Free Cash Flow will be allocated towards further debt reduction and return of capital to shareholders, primarily through share repurchases, subject to further Board approvals.

In addition to this framework, subject to Board approval, Talos may initiate a stock buyback program to allow it to consider repurchasing shares of the Company's common stock in the event of significant monetizations from private equity shareholders.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow generation is expected to materially increase beyond 2023. Starting in 2024 Talos expects to be in a position to initiate a broader, enhanced return of capital to shareholders, primarily through opportunistic share repurchases, subject to Board approvals.

------

Estimates for our future production volumes are based on assumptions of capital expenditure levels and the assumption that market demand and prices for oil and gas will continue at levels that allow for economic production of these products. The production, transportation, marketing and storage of oil and gas are subject to disruption due to transportation, processing and storage availability, mechanical failure, human error, hurricanes and numerous other factors. Our estimates are based on certain other assumptions, such as well performance, which may vary significantly from those assumed. Therefore, we can give no assurance that our future production volumes will be as estimated.

**RESERVE INFORMATION** 

Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of oil, natural gas and NGLs that cannot be measured in an exact way. The accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data, the interpretation of such data and price and cost assumptions made by reserve engineers. In addition, the results of drilling, testing and production activities may justify revisions upward or downward of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions would change the schedule of any further production and development drilling. Accordingly, reserve estimates may differ significantly from the quantities of oil, natural gas and NGLs that are ultimately recovered.

**SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP INFORMATION** 

Certain financial information included in our financial results are not measures of financial performance recognized by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are "Adjusted Net Income (Loss)," "Adjusted Earnings per Share," "EBITDA," "Adjusted EBITDA," "Adjusted EBITDA excluding hedges," "Adjusted EBITDA Margin," "Adjusted EBITDA Margin excluding hedges," "Adjusted Free Cash Flow," "Net Debt," "LTM Adjusted EBITDA," "LTM Adjusted EBITDA,", "Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA," "Leverage" and "PV-10." These disclosures may not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures which may be reported by other companies.

**Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA** 

"EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA" are to provide management and investors with (i) additional information to evaluate, with certain adjustments, items required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under our debt agreements, (ii) important supplemental indicators of the operational performance of our business, (iii) additional criteria for evaluating our performance relative to our peers and (iv) supplemental information to investors about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP or as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We define these as the following:

*EBITDA*. Net income (loss) plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, depletion and amortization and accretion expense.

*Adjusted EBITDA.* EBITDA plus non-cash write-down of oil and natural gas properties, transaction and other (income) expenses, decommissioning obligations, derivative fair value (gain) loss, net cash receipts (payments) on settled derivatives, (gain) loss on debt extinguishment, non-cash write-down of other well equipment inventory and non-cash equity-based compensation expense.

*Adjusted EBITDA excluding hedges*. We have historically provided as a supplement to—rather than in lieu of—Adjusted EBITDA including hedges, provides useful information regarding our results of operations and profitability by illustrating the operating results of our oil and natural gas properties without the benefit or detriment, as applicable, of our financial oil and natural gas hedges. By excluding our oil and natural gas hedges, we are able to convey actual operating results using realized market prices during the period, thereby providing analysts and investors with additional information they can use to evaluate the impacts of our hedging strategies over time.

We also present Adjusted EBITDA excluding hedges and as a percentage of revenue to further analyze our business, which are outlined below:

*Adjusted EBITDA Margin.* EBITDA divided by Revenue, as a percentage. It is also defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the total production volume, expressed in Boe, in the period, and described as dollar per Boe. We believe the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA margin is important to provide management and investors with information about how much we retain in Adjusted EBITDA terms as compared to the revenue we generate and how much per barrel we generate after accounting for certain operational and corporate costs.

(1) Other income (expenses) includes miscellaneous income and expenses that we do not view as a meaningful
indicator of our operating performance. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022, it includes a $1.4 and $13.9 million gain on partial sale of our investment in Bayou Bend, respectively. For the three months
ended June 30, 2022, there was also a $2.5 million gain related to the settlement of an acquired imbalance. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the amount includes $27.5 million gain as a result of the settlement agreement
to resolve previously pending litigation that was filed in October 2017.

(2) Estimated decommissioning obligations were a result of working interest partners or counterparties of
divestiture transactions that were unable to perform the required abandonment obligations due to bankruptcy or insolvency.

(3) The adjustments for the derivative fair value (gain) loss and net cash receipts (payments) on settled
derivative instruments have the effect of adjusting net income (loss) for changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, which are recognized at the end of each accounting period because we do not designate commodity derivative instruments as
accounting hedges. This results in reflecting commodity derivative gains and losses within Adjusted EBITDA on an unrealized basis during the period the derivatives settled.

(4) One Boe is equal to six Mcf of natural gas or one Bbl of oil or NGLs based on an approximate energy
equivalency. This is an energy content correlation and does not reflect a value or price relationship between the commodities.

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

"Adjusted Free Cash Flow" before changes in working capital provides management and investors with (i) important supplemental indicators of the operational performance of our business, (ii) additional criteria for evaluating our performance relative to our peers and (iii) supplemental information to investors about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted Free Cash Flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP or as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We define these as the following:

*Capital Expenditures, Plugging & Abandonment and Decommissioning Obligations Settled*. Actual capital expenditures, plugging & abandonment and decommissioning obligations settled recognized in the quarter, inclusive of accruals.

*Interest Expense.* Actual interest expense per the income statement.

Talos did not pay any cash taxes in the period, therefore cash taxes have no impact to the reported Adjusted Free Cash Flow before changes in working capital number.

(1) Other income (expenses) includes miscellaneous income and expenses that we do not view as a meaningful
indicator of our operating performance. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, there was a $27.5 million gain as a result of the settlement agreement to resolve previously pending litigation that was filed in October 2017,
$15.3 million gain on partial sale of our investment in Bayou Bend, and $2.5 million gain related to the settlement of an acquired imbalance.

(2) Estimated decommissioning obligations were a result of working interest partners or counterparties of
divestiture transactions that were unable to perform the required abandonment obligations due to bankruptcy or insolvency.

(3) The adjustments for the derivative fair value (gain) loss and net cash receipts (payments) on settled
derivative instruments have the effect of adjusting net income (loss) for changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, which are recognized at the end of each accounting period because we do not designate commodity derivative instruments as
accounting hedges. This results in reflecting commodity derivative gains and losses within Adjusted Net Income (Loss) on an unrealized basis during the period the derivatives settled.

Debt / LTM Adjusted EBITDA would have been 0.9x.

**Reconciliation of PV-10 to Standardized Measure (Pro Forma for EnVen)** 

PV-10 is a non-GAAP financial measure and generally differs from Standardized Measure, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, because it does not include the effects of income taxes on future net revenues. PV-10 is not an estimate of the fair market value of the Company's properties. Talos and others in the industry use PV-10 as a measure to compare the relative size and value of proved reserves held by companies and of the potential return on investment related to the companies' properties without regard to the specific tax characteristics of such entities. PV-10 may be reconciled to the Standardized Measure of discounted future net cash flows at such dates by adding the discounted future income taxes associated with such reserves to the Standardized Measure.

The table below presents the reconciliation of PV-10 to Standardized Measure on a pro forma basis inclusive of the EnVen acquisition:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Year Ended<br>December 31, 2022** |
|  Standardized measure<sup>(1)(2)</sup> | $5994973 |
|  Present value of future income taxes discounted at 10% | 1200673 |
|  PV-10 (Non-GAAP) | $7195646 |

(1) All **  estimated future costs to settle asset retirement obligations associated with our proved reserves
have been included in our calculation of the standardized measure for the period presented.

(2) Standardized measure is based on management estimates and is not audited by third party reserve engineers.
