**NEWS RELEASE**

**KOSMOS ENERGY ANNOUNCES SALE OF EQUATORIAL GUINEA PRODUCTION ASSETS TO PANORO ENERGY FOR UP TO $219.5 MILLION**

*Optimizes portfolio, high grades capital allocation, lowers costs and enhances liquidity*

Dallas – February 24<sup>th</sup>, 2026 – Kosmos Energy (NYSE/LSE: KOS) ("Kosmos" or the "Company") has entered into an agreement to sell its 40.375% non-operating working interest in the Ceiba Field and Okume Complex production assets offshore Equatorial Guinea to Panoro Energy ("Panoro") for $180 million, plus future contingent payments of up to $39.5 million.

Under the terms of the agreement, Panoro will acquire the Kosmos subsidiary that owns an interest in Block G where the Ceiba and Okume production assets are located (the "Assets"). The consideration consists of an upfront cash payment of $180 million, subject to certain adjustments, plus contingent payments of $12.5 million linked to production performance at the Ceiba field and $9 million payable in each of 2027, 2028 and 2029, which are subject to certain oil price and production thresholds.

The transaction enhances liquidity from monetizing non-core assets and accelerates debt reduction. Proceeds will be used to reduce borrowings outstanding under the reserves-based lending (RBL) credit facility.

The transaction has an effective date of January 1, 2025, and is expected to close mid-year 2026, The transaction has received approval from the Government of Equatorial Guinea, and completion only remains subject to CEMAC customary approval. Over the two-year period post completion of the transaction, Kosmos expects to realize approximately $100 million in total savings across capital expenditures and general and administrative expenses.

Andrew G. Inglis, Kosmos Energy's chairman and chief executive officer said: "This transaction reflects our continued focus on capital discipline and balance sheet resilience. The high-grading of the portfolio by accelerating the monetization of later-life, non-operated production assets enables Kosmos to focus our capital and expertise on our world-class assets where we can add the most value for our stakeholders over the long-term. The proceeds from the transaction

enhance liquidity and accelerate debt reduction, while the contingent payments ensure we retain exposure to future upside."
