**<u>Segment Operational Results - First Quarter 2026</u>**

**Power Business Segment**

BKV continues to make meaningful progress toward securing a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA) to enhance revenue visibility and optimize generation at the Power JV's Temple plants. Through the previously disclosed advisor-led process, the Company is actively evaluating PPA proposals and remains engaged in discussions with multiple prospective counterparties.

The Company continues to evaluate multiple avenues for expansion, including modular power development and a private use network at the Temple complex, as well as a potential Temple III expansion and new project opportunities in North Central Texas. BKV has taken multiple measured steps to advance readiness to support speed to power and power growth, including entering into equipment supply contracts related to modular power, securing turbine reservations for up to 1.2 GW of capacity, gaining site control on nearly 800 additional acres in Temple, and acquiring approximately 6,200 acres of site control in North Central Texas. The pace and scale of future development and capital spending will be driven by progress in commercial discussions toward securing long-term PPAs. With power demand in the U.S. and ERCOT markets continuing to accelerate—driven by AI-enabled data center growth and increasing electrification—BKV is well positioned to capitalize on these structural trends.

Power segment Adjusted EBITDAX ("Power Adjusted EBITDAX") was $20.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, and $18.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Power Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to BKV was $14.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $13.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Power Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to Noncontrolling Interests was $5.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The first quarter of 2026, was marked by a significant January cold weather event, Winter Storm Fern, that drove elevated demand and required sustained dispatch. Total power generation for the quarter increased 24.7% year over year. During this period, the plants operated reliably with no forced outages, leveraging gas from storage to enhance flexibility, optimize realizations, and support grid stability during a challenging and critical stress event. Outside of the January cold snap, weather conditions were relatively mild for the winter season, with heating degree days approximately 30% lower than the first quarter of 2025. Planned maintenance activities were successfully completed on both plants in March, reinforcing strong operational readiness heading into the remainder of the year.

------

On January 30, 2026, BKV successfully completed its acquisition of one-half of the ownership interests in the BKV-BPP Power JV then-held by Banpu Power US Corporation's ("BPPUS"), increasing BKV's ownership stake in the joint venture from 50% to 75%. The transaction allows BKV to consolidate the financial results of the JV as provided in this quarter's updated financials. An updated governance structure adopted in connection with the transaction strengthens BKV's ability to align power operations with its long-term growth strategy while supporting continued reliability of the Temple facilities.

**Upstream, Midstream, and Commercial**

BKV delivered strong operational performance in the first quarter, with production at the high-end of our guidance range while remaining within its capital framework. The upstream business continues to serve as a durable cash engine for the Company, generating consistent cash flow while improving capital efficiency across the asset base.

Results were driven by continued improvements in drilling and completions execution, including success from advanced completions designs that are outperforming prior type curves. The Company is also seeing benefits from positive offset well ("POW") effects in the Barnett, where modern completion techniques are increasing production from both new and existing wells. Together, these initiatives are driving capital efficient incremental production and value without requiring capital expenditures beyond our budget. Additionally, BKV continues to enhance application of data and analytics, enabling management of its industry-leading low base decline and improving base production even further.

BKV also continues to expand its commercial capabilities. During the first quarter, the Company took over a substantive portion of its natural gas marketing and expects to be fully marketing its own production this year. Over time, this is expected to improve margins, increase commercial flexibility, and enhance BKV's ability to deliver integrated solutions across gas, power, carbon sequestered gas, and LNG-related arrangements.

**Carbon Capture Utilization and Sequestration ("CCUS")**

BKV achieved initial injection at its Cotton Cove project in April. Cotton Cove represents the Company's second operational CCUS project and is expected to achieve a sequestration rate of approximately 32,000 metric tons of CO₂ per year.

The Barnett Zero Project sequestered approximately 35,800 metric tons of CO2 during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Since start-up in November 2023, the project has sequestered approximately 347,400 metric tons of CO2 through March 31, 2026.

BKV's additional CCUS development projects are progressing on pace with our previously provided timelines and consistent with previously provided scope targets. The Eagle Ford project is on track to commence injection before June 30, 2026, with an expected sequestration rate of approximately 90,000 metric tons of CO₂ per year; the project has received EPA approval of its monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) plan. The East Texas project remains on track with a forecasted injection target of approximately 70,000 metric tons per year of CO2. As previously announced, BKV executed definitive agreements in the first quarter of 2026 with Comstock Resources to advance two CCUS projects at Comstock's Bethel and Marquez natural gas processing facilities in the Western Haynesville. These developments and our broader pipeline of potential projects in our CCUS portfolio play a key role in supporting our targeted 1.5 million tons per annum injection run-rate by 2028.

BKV has received notice that its Class VI permit applications for the High West project have entered technical review with Louisiana regulators.

BKV is also continuing multiple Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) studies regarding CO2 capture from combined cycle natural gas turbines, like those at our Temple location, to further delineate capital and operating costs of such facilities. These studies are expected to be completed in 2026 and are intended to further inform potential power-related CCUS development opportunities across the Company's portfolio.

**Capital Expenditures**

Accrued capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2026 were $118.6 million, which included $81.9 million for Upstream/Midstream development capital, $16.7 million for Power, and $20.0 million for CCUS and other expenditures. In addition, the Company spent an additional $33.1 million on deposits on fixed asset purchases in the quarter ending March 31, 2026, comprised

------

of payments for turbines, modular generation equipment, and other long lead time items in Power included within our Strategic Power Growth capital expenditures and investments guidance. Accrued capital expenditures for the same period in 2025 were $58.1 million, which included $47.9 million for Upstream/Midstream development capital, $0.1 million for Power, and $10.1 million for CCUS and other expenditures.

**Liquidity and Debt attributable to BKV**

As of March 31, 2026, BKV had cash and cash equivalents of $288.5 million and restricted cash of $16.0 million related to the Power segment Temple Term Loan Facility. Total debt as of March 31, 2026 was $1.3 billion, which was made up of the 2030 Senior Notes of $500.0 million, RBL balance of $100.0 million, a promissory note of $46.0 million, and Power segment debt facilities of $635.4 million consisting of borrowings under the Temple I Loan Agreements of $176.0 million, borrowings under the Temple Term Loan Facility of $399.4 million, and Temple Revolving Facility balance of $60.0 million. As of March 31, 2026, total liquidity for BKV was $973.5 million, which consists of $288.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $685.0 million available capacity under the Company's RBL. RBL availability as of March 31, 2026, is based on the elected commitment amount of $800.0 million, less $15.0 million of letters of credit, less our outstanding balance of $100.0 million.

**Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures** 

This release includes the non-GAAP financial measures described below. These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information only and should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) attributable to BKV, basic and diluted EPS, net income (loss), net cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

As a result of the Company's acquisition of an additional 25% ownership interest in and consolidation of the BKV-BPP Power JV as of January 30, 2026, the Company has adjusted its non-GAAP measures of Combined Adjusted EBITDAX, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin. Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Company will disclose Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV, Adjusted EPS attributable to BKV, Adjusted EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to BKV, Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to Noncontrolling Interests, Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth attributable to BKV. Such non-GAAP measures have been presented in this release for the comparative period and have been calculated based on the definitions below.

***Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Attributable to BKV and Adjusted EPS Attributable to BKV***

The Company defines Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV as net income (loss) attributable to BKV before (i) net unrealized derivative (gains) losses, (ii) forward month gas settlements, (iii) impairment of assets held for sale, (iv) other nonrecurring transactions, and (v) the tax impact of these adjustments calculated using a 23% statutory rate. The Company defines Adjusted EPS attributable to BKV as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.

We believe Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV and Adjusted EPS attributable to BKV are useful performance measures because they allow us to effectively evaluate our operating performance and results of operations from period to period and against our peers, without regard to our financing methods, corporate form, capital structure, or one-time events. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) attributable to BKV in arriving at Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV and Adjusted EPS attributable to BKV 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. Our presentation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV and Adjusted EPS attributable to BKV should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV and Adjusted EPS attributable to BKV or may calculate this measure differently than as presented in this release, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

The table below presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to BKV to net income (loss) attributable to BKV, our most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated.

***Adjusted EBITDAX, Adjusted EBITDAX Attributable to BKV, and Adjusted EBITDAX Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests***

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as income (loss) from operations before (i) depreciation, depletion, amortization, and accretion, (ii) net unrealized derivative (gains) losses, (iii) forward month gas settlement, (iv) equity-based compensation expense, (v) exploration and impairment expense, (vi) other income (expense) and (vii) other nonrecurring transactions. Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to BKV is defined as Adjusted EBITDAX less Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to Noncontrolling Interests.

The Company excludes the items listed above from income (loss) from operations 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, income (loss) from operations determined in accordance with GAAP. 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 burden, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are reflected in 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. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use Adjusted EBITDAX or may calculate this measure differently than as presented in this release, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

------

Adjusted EBITDAX is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is used by our management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders, rating agencies and others to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and results of operations from period to period and against our peers. We believe Adjusted EBITDAX is a useful performance measure because it allows us to effectively evaluate our operating performance and results of operations from period to period and against our peers, without regard to our financing methods, corporate form or capital structure.

The table below presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDAX to income (loss) from operations, our most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated.

***Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth and Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth Attributable to BKV***

------

We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth as net cash provided by operating activities, excluding cash paid for contingent consideration and changes in operating assets and liabilities, less total cash paid for capital expenditures (excluding leasehold costs and acquisitions), excluding strategic power growth capital expenditures. Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth attributable to BKV is defined as Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth, less Adjusted EBITDAX attributable to Noncontrolling Interests, with net interest expense attributable to noncontrolling interest added back, plus net contributions from noncontrolling interest.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth and Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth attributable to BKV are not measures of net cash provided by or used in operating activities as determined by GAAP. These measures are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management and external users of our financial statements, including industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, to assess our ability to internally fund our capital program, service or incur additional debt and pay dividends. Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth reflects cash flow available to fund our capital program excluding strategic power growth capital expenditures, while Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth attributable to BKV further adjusts for noncontrolling interests to reflect amounts attributable to common shareholders. We believe these measures are useful indicators of liquidity because they facilitate period-over-period comparisons of cash flow provided by operating activities and our ability to internally fund our capital program (including acquisitions), reduce leverage, fund acquisitions and return capital to shareholders. Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth and Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth attributable to BKV should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Other companies, including those in our industry, may define these measures differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

The table below presents our reconciliation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth and Adjusted Free Cash Flow before Power Growth attributable to BKV to net cash provided by operating activities, our most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for the periods indicated.
