**Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Highlights:** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Magnolia reported fourth quarter and full-year 2022 net income attributable to Class A Common Stock of $231.7 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, and $893.8 million or $4.71 per diluted share, respectively. Fourth quarter and full-year 2022 total net income was $254.8 million and $1,050.2 million, respectively. Total net income adjusted<sup>(1)</sup> for the non-cash deferred income tax benefit was $189.0 million and $978.2 million, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Adjusted EBITDAX<sup>(1)</sup> was $267.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, with drilling and completions ("D&C") capital of $140.0 million, representing 52% of quarterly adjusted EBITDAX. Adjusted EBITDAX for the full-year 2022 was $1,345.3 million with total D&C capital of $459.8 million, representing 34% of adjusted EBITDAX.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Net cash provided by operating activities was $268.0 million during the fourth quarter 2022 and $1,296.7 million during full-year 2022. The Company generated free cash flow<sup>(1)</sup> of $141.0 million during the fourth quarter 2022 and $823.5 million during full-year 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Total production in the fourth quarter of 2022 grew 6% from the fourth quarter of 2021 to 73.8 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day ("Mboe/d"). Production for full-year 2022 averaged 75.4 Mboe/d representing year-over-year volume growth of more than 14%.

<sup>(1)</sup> Adjusted EBITDAX, adjusted net income, and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. For reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures, please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" at the end of this press release.

<sup>(2)</sup> Weighted average total shares outstanding include diluted weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period and shares of Class B Common Stock, which are anti-dilutive in the calculation of weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Production at Giddings and Other in the fourth quarter of 2022 grew 20% compared to the prior year fourth quarter to 43.1 Mboe/d including oil production growth of 26%. Production here represented nearly 60% of overall Magnolia volumes in 2022, a significant increase compared to 2019 levels of 33%. Last year's growth at Giddings was supported by operating efficiency gains such as fewer drilling days per well, an improvement in stimulation stages per day, and longer laterals.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Magnolia repurchased 2.4 million shares during the fourth quarter for $57.8 million. Total share repurchases during 2022 amounted to 15.5 million shares, driving the reduction in the Company's diluted weighted average share count<sup>(3)</sup> by 8% compared to the prior year. Magnolia has 8.9 million Class A Common shares remaining as part of the current share repurchase authorization. This authorization is specifically allocated toward open market share repurchases.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Magnolia returned 58%<sup>(4)</sup> and 54%<sup>(5)</sup> of the free cash flow generated during the fourth quarter and the full year 2022, respectively, to its shareholders through a combination of share repurchases and dividends. Along with the significant return of cash to shareholders, Magnolia ended the year with $675.4 million of cash on its balance sheet. The Company remains undrawn on its $450.0 million revolving credit facility, with no debt maturities until 2026 and does not plan to increase bonded indebtedness.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• As previously announced, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.115 per share of Class A common stock, and a cash distribution of $0.115 per Class B unit, payable on March 1, 2023 to shareholders of record as of February 10, 2023. Our ongoing efforts toward reducing our outstanding shares and delivering moderate annual production growth are expected to support annual dividend growth of approximately 10 percent over time.

"I want to commend our teams for their efforts and recognize their strong contributions which helped support the exceptional financial and operational results for Magnolia in 2022," said President and CEO Chris Stavros. "We achieved new company records in most financial and operational categories including production, operating income margins and earnings per share, while continuing to gain efficiencies at Giddings without sacrificing productivity. We achieved this by executing on our strategy of disciplined capital spending, moderate production growth, generating high pre-tax margins, and improving our per share metrics while maintaining a strong balance sheet. During 2022 we grew our total production volumes by more than 14 percent while spending just 34 percent of our EBITDAX drilling and completing wells.

"Our teams continued focus on managing costs and generating efficiencies in an inflationary service cost environment further enhanced our margins in Giddings and provided significant free cash flow. During the year, we returned 54 percent of our free cash flow to our shareholders in the form of share repurchases and our cash dividend. We repurchased more than 15 million shares in 2022, reducing our diluted share count by 8 percent. In addition, we were able to acquire some acreage, minerals and additional working interests in our Giddings area, primarily outside of our core development area. This further builds on our strong position in the play and is in line with our strategy of incrementally improving our opportunity set and the value of the business. After all our activities, including capital expenditures, bolt-on acquisitions and the significant return of cash to shareholders, we ended the year with a considerable cash balance of $675 million.

"While Magnolia's unhedged business captured the benefit of much higher product prices last year, this year's plan will focus on improved execution and generating further efficiencies in order to offset the impact of higher oil field service costs. Operationally, we expect our 2023 plan to be similar to last year. We expect to continue to operate a two-rig drilling program, which we estimate will generate full-year production growth of approximately 10 percent. We will remain disciplined on our D&C capital, continuing to limit our spending to approximately 55 percent of EBITDAX, allowing for significant free cash flow. Our efforts will continue to focus on improving the overall business while taking actions to increase our dividend per share payout capacity. These activities include moderate growth in our total production, repurchasing at least 1 percent of our outstanding shares per quarter, and the pursuit of small, accretive bolt-on oil and gas property acquisitions. These efforts are expected to support annual dividend growth of approximately 10 percent over time, which is an important component of Magnolia's total shareholder return proposition."

<sup>(3)</sup> Weighted average total shares outstanding include diluted weighted average shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period and shares of Class B Common Stock, which are anti-dilutive in the calculation of weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

<sup>(4)</sup> Fourth quarter 2022 return to shareholders includes $60.3 million of share repurchases, $19.0 million of dividends to Class A shareholders, and $2.9 million of distributions to Class B shareholders, divided by the quarterly free cash flow (reconciled on page 12).

<sup>(5)</sup> Full year 2022 return to shareholders includes $352.2 million of share repurchases, $75.2 million of dividends to Class A shareholders, and $14.3 million of distributions to Class B shareholders, divided by the annual free cash flow (reconciled on page 12).

**Operational Update**

Fourth quarter 2022 total company production averaged 73.8 Mboe/d, representing a 6% increase over the prior year period. Giddings and Other production increased 20% and oil production increased 26% over the prior year's fourth quarter. As we previously communicated, fourth quarter 2022 production volumes were negatively affected by freezing temperatures, which impacted both our Karnes and Giddings assets during late December and a single large pad that was brought online later than expected. Operations have fully resumed to expected levels and performance at the large 8-well pad is better than expected. We added a mix of acreage, mineral and working interests to the Giddings area during the fourth quarter, most of which was outside of our core development area. These targeted acreage acquisitions were partly a result of our ongoing appraisal work with a goal of identifying new and promising areas throughout the Giddings field. Our appraisal efforts should enhance our development opportunities over time. Magnolia plans to continue to pursue small bolt-on oil and gas property opportunities in and around our operated assets that we expect will add future value to the enterprise.

Magnolia continues to operate two drilling rigs and one completion crew and expects to maintain this level of activity throughout the year. One rig will continue to drill multi-well development pads in our Giddings area. The second rig will drill a mix of wells in both the Karnes and Giddings areas, including some appraisal wells at Giddings. For 2023 in Giddings, we currently expect to average approximately 4 wells per pad with average lateral lengths of approximately 8,000 feet.

**2022 Oil and Gas Reserves**

Total 2022 proved reserves increased 16% to 157.0 MMboe from 135.4 MMboe at year end 2021 and replaced 179%<sup>(6)</sup> of 2022 production. Magnolia books only one year of proved undeveloped reserves and as a result 80% of its 2022 proved reserves were developed. The proved undeveloped reserves represent what we plan to convert to proved developed during 2023.

**Additional Guidance** 

Based on our operated activity of a 2-rig drilling plan for full-year 2023, we estimate our total D&C capital to be between $490 to $520 million, which includes an estimate of non-operated capital that we currently expect to be similar to 2022 levels. With this level of activity, we expect to deliver full-year 2023 production growth of 10 percent, with most of the growth expected to come from our development program at our Giddings field asset.

We expect the first quarter of 2023 to be our heaviest period of D&C capital expenditures during the year, and in the range of $140 to $150 million. Total production for the first quarter is estimated to be approximately 80 to 82 Mboe/d. Oil price differentials are anticipated to be approximately a $3 per barrel discount to Magellan East Houston and Magnolia remains completely unhedged for all its oil and natural gas production. The fully diluted share count for the first quarter of 2023 is expected to be approximately 214 million shares, which is 6 percent lower than first quarter 2022 levels.

**Annual Report on Form 10-K**

Magnolia's financial statements and related footnotes will be available in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which is expected to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 16, 2023.

<sup>(6)</sup> Calculated as the sum of the 2022 change in total proved reserves of 21.6 MMboe and 2022 production of 27.5 MMboe divided by 2022 production.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures** 

***Reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDAX***

In this press release, we refer to adjusted EBITDAX, a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, and rating agencies. We define adjusted EBITDAX as net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, amortization of intangible assets, exploration expenses, and accretion of asset retirement obligations, adjusted to exclude the effect of certain items included in net income. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income in accordance with GAAP.

Our management believes that adjusted EBITDAX is useful because it allows them to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and against our peers without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We also believe that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties may use adjusted EBITDAX in the evaluation of our Company. We exclude the items listed above from net income in arriving at adjusted EBITDAX because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity. Certain items excluded from adjusted EBITDAX are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of adjusted EBITDAX. Our presentation of adjusted EBITDAX should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computations of adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDAX, our most directly comparable financial measure, calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures** 

***Reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income***

Our presentation of adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measures because it excludes the effect of certain items included in net income. Management uses adjusted net income to evaluate our operating and financial performance because it eliminates the impact of certain items that management does not consider to be representative of the Company's on-going business operations. As a performance measure, adjusted net income may be useful to investors in facilitating comparisons to others in the Company's industry because certain items can vary substantially in the oil and gas industry from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, and capital structure, among other factors. Management believes adjusting these items facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing the underlying operating and financial performance of our business from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense and income items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted net income may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures** 

***Reconciliation of revenue to adjusted cash operating margin and to operating income margin***

Our presentation of adjusted cash operating margin and total adjusted cash operating costs are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management. Total adjusted cash operating costs exclude the impact of non-cash activity. We define adjusted cash operating margin per boe as total revenues per boe less operating expenses per boe. Management believes that total adjusted cash operating costs per boe and adjusted cash operating margin per boe provide relevant and useful information, which is used by our management in assessing the Company's profitability and comparability of results to our peers.

As a performance measure, total adjusted cash operating costs and adjusted cash operating margin may be useful to investors in facilitating comparisons to others in the Company's industry because certain items can vary substantially in the oil and gas industry from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, and capital structure, among other factors. Management believes excluding these items facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing the underlying operating and financial performance of our business from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense and income items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted cash operating margin may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

***Reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow***

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Free cash flow is defined as cash flows from operations before net change in operating assets and liabilities less additions to oil and natural gas properties and changes in working capital associated with additions to oil and natural gas properties. Management believes free cash flow is useful for investors and widely accepted by those following the oil and gas industry as financial indicators of a company's ability to generate cash to internally fund drilling and completion activities, fund acquisitions, and service debt. It is also used by research analysts to value and compare oil and gas exploration and production companies and is frequently included in published research when providing investment recommendations. Free cash flow is used by management as an additional measure of liquidity. Free cash flow is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities.

In addition, Magnolia cautions you that the forward looking statements contained in this press release are subject to the following factors: (i) the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken by federal, state and local governments and other third parties in response to the pandemic; (ii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Magnolia; (iii) Magnolia's ability to realize the anticipated benefits of its acquisitions, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of Magnolia to grow and manage growth profitably; (iv) changes in applicable laws or regulations; (v) geopolitical and business conditions in key regions of the world; and (vi) the possibility that Magnolia may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors, including inflation. Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties described in this press release occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning these and other factors that may impact Magnolia's operations and projections can be found in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which is expected to be filed with the SEC on February 16, 2023. Magnolia's SEC filings are available publicly on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income, free cash flow, EBITDAX, adjusted EBITDAX, adjusted cash operating costs and adjusted cash operating margin. Magnolia believes these metrics are useful because they allow Magnolia to more effectively evaluate its operating performance and compare the results of its operations from period to period and against its peers without regard to accounting methods or capital structure. Magnolia does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to similar financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The computations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. Certain items excluded from free cash flow, adjusted EBITDAX, adjusted cash operating costs and adjusted cash operating margin are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, and should not be construed as an inference that its results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring terms. As performance measures, adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDAX, adjusted cash operating costs and adjusted cash operating margin may be useful to investors in facilitating comparisons to others in the Company's industry because certain items can vary substantially in the oil and gas industry from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, and capital structure, among other factors. Management believes excluding these items facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing the underlying operating and financial performance of our business from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense and income items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. As a liquidity measure, management believes free cash flow is useful for investors and widely accepted by those following the oil and gas industry as financial indicators of a company's ability to generate cash to internally fund drilling and completion activities, fund acquisitions, and service debt. Our presentation of adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDAX, free cash flow, adjusted cash operating costs and adjusted cash operating margin may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry. A free cash flow reconciliation is shown on page 13, adjusted EBITDAX reconciliation is shown on page 14 of the presentation, adjusted net income is shown on page 15, and adjusted cash operating costs and adjusted cash operating margin reconciliations are shown on page 9. INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA This presentation has been prepared by Magnolia and includes market data and other statistical information from sources believed by Magnolia to be reliable, including independent industry publications, governmental publications or other published independent sources. Some data is also based on the good faith estimates of Magnolia, which are derived from its review of internal sources as well as the independent sources described above. Although Magnolia believes these sources are reliable, it has not independently verified the information and cannot guarantee its accuracy and completeness.
