"In 2022, our teams combined two strong Williston Basin assets to form Chord Energy, a premier E&P company committed to producing the energy needed to fuel society in a responsible manner," said Danny Brown, Chord Energy's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We closed the merger mid-year, creating an industry leader in the Williston Basin and simultaneously

debuted a peer-leading return of capital program, which allows us to return a significant amount of capital to shareholders while maintaining a strong balance sheet and organizational flexibility. Pro forma return of capital to shareholders was over $1.2B in 2022 through a mix of base and variable dividend payouts, supplemented by opportunistic share repurchases."

Danny Brown continued, "Going forward, we're committed to further enhancing the business through the capture of merger synergies, strong operating practices, and disciplined capital allocation which we believe positions us for strong shareholder returns in the future. Chord Energy has an attractive combination of strong assets, operational capability, financial discipline, a commitment to responsible operations and represents a compelling investment opportunity."

(1)Non-GAAP financial measure. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measures under GAAP.

(2)Excludes $13.4MM of cash-related costs attributable to the merger.

(3)In 4Q22, the Company made a cash tax payment of $10MM reflecting taxes associated with the September 2022 monetization of 16MM CEQP units. No cash taxes were paid in 4Q22 associated with normal operations.

**2023 Outlook**

Chord constructed its 2023 plan to focus on capital efficiency and maximizing cash flow generation with a low reinvestment rate, and is running estimates at the midpoint of guidance using $75/Bbl WTI and $3.50MMBtu Henry Hub. Chord expects to generate approximately $1.75B of Adjusted EBITDA and over $825MM of Adjusted Free Cash Flow in 2023, including the impact of derivatives but excluding dividends. The 2023 reinvestment rate is expected to be approximately 50% (inclusive of the capital which shifted into 2023 due to weather delays in 4Q22). Highlights of the 2023 plan include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 2023 E&P and other CapEx is expected to total approximately $825MM – $865MM, including approximately $20MM of CapEx which carried over from 4Q22;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Approximately 80% of E&P and other CapEx is expected to be invested in drilling and completions. Approximately 50% of wells turned-in-line ("TIL") in 2023 are expected to be 3-mile laterals;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Chord plans to TIL 90 to 94 gross operated wells in 2023 with an average working interest of approximately 73%. Completions activity is concentrated in 2Q23 and 3Q23 with over two-thirds of TILs expected during these quarters. 1Q23 is expected to have approximately 11-15 back-end-weighted TILs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 1Q23 total volumes are impacted by January downtime and deferred activity related to severe winter weather. Volumes are expected to increase sequentially each quarter with 4Q23 volumes the highest of the year; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continued focus on ESG and sustainability with Chord planning to enhance its ESG program and transparency in 2023, including publishing a sustainability report. Chord's sustainability letter to stakeholders can be found on the Company's website at www.chordenergy.com/sustainability.

The Company expects to pay no cash taxes in 1Q23. Cash taxes for 2Q23 – 4Q23 are expected to approximate 2% – 8% of Adjusted EBITDA per quarter at WTI prices between $70/bbl – $90/bbl.

___________________

(1)Non-GAAP financial measure. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measures under GAAP.

(2) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Excludes cash-related costs attributable to the merger.

(3) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Excludes capitalized interest of approximately $4MM.

**Net Proved Reserves**

During 2022, the Company added 349.8 million barrels of oil equivalent ("MMBoe") of net proved reserves as a result of the merger with Whiting and 51.5 MMBoe of net proved reserves as a result of successful drilling in the Williston Basin. Chord's estimated net proved reserves at December 31, 2022 were 655.6 MMBoe and consisted of 381.3 million barrels ("MMBbl") of crude oil, 138.5 MMBbl of NGLs and 814.9 billion cubic feet ("Bcf") of natural gas. The Company's estimated net proved reserves and PV-10 do not include probable or possible reserves and were determined using the preceding 12 month unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month index prices for crude oil and natural gas, which were held constant throughout the life of the properties. The unweighted arithmetic average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior 12 months were $93.67 per Bbl for crude oil and $6.36 per MMBtu for natural gas for the year ended December 31, 2022. These prices were adjusted for quality, energy content, transportation fees and market differentials. The information in the following table does not give any effect to or reflect our commodity derivatives. Future operating costs, production taxes, plugging and abandonment costs and capital costs were based on current costs as of each year end. Our estimated net proved reserves and related PV-10 at December 31, 2022 are based on reports independently prepared by Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc., our independent reserve engineers.

The table below summarizes the Company's estimated net proved reserves and related PV-10 at December 31, 2022:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Crude Oil (MMBbl)** | **NGLs (MMBbl)** | **Natural Gas (Bcf)** | **Net Estimated Reserves (MMBoe)** | **PV-10**<sup>(1)</sup><br>**(in millions)** |
| Proved Developed | 272.5 | 115.2 | 689.7 | 502.7 | $11460.3 |
| Undeveloped | 108.8 | 23.3 | 125.2 | 152.9 | 2991.9 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total Proved**<sup>(2)</sup> | **381.3** | **138.5** | **814.9** | **655.6** | $**14452.2** |

---

____________________

(1)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 effect of income taxes on discounted future net cash flows. We believe PV-10 is a useful measure for investors when evaluating the relative monetary significance of our oil and gas properties and as a basis for comparison of the relative size and value of our proved reserves to our peers without regard to income taxes, which can vary between individual companies for various and unique factors. The PV-10 does not purport to present the fair value of our proved oil, NGL and natural gas reserves.

------

**Hedging Activity** 

The Company has not added any additional hedges since its last update. Chord has certain natural gas basis swaps which expire over 1H23 and are in a liability position of approximately $7MM as of December 31, 2022.

**Select Operational and Financial Data**

The following table presents select operational and financial data from continuing operations, unless otherwise noted, for the periods presented. Full-year 2022 results include six months of legacy Oasis results from January 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022 plus six months of consolidated Chord results from July 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

However, these measures are not recognized by GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other issuers. From time to time, the Company provides forward-looking forecasts of these measures; however, the Company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures because management cannot reliably quantify certain of the necessary components of such forward-looking GAAP measures. The reconciling items in future periods could be significant. To see how the Company reconciles its historical presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, please visit the Investors—Documents & Disclosures—Non-GAAP Reconciliation page on the Company's website at https://ir.chordenergy.com/non-gaap.

**Cash GPT**

The Company defines Cash GPT as gathering, processing and transportation ("GPT") expenses less non-cash valuation charges on pipeline imbalances and non-cash mark-to-market adjustments on transportation contracts accounted for as derivative instruments. Cash GPT is not a measure of GPT expenses as determined by GAAP. Management believes that the presentation of Cash GPT provides useful additional information to investors and analysts to assess the cash costs incurred to market and transport the Company's commodities from the wellhead to delivery points for sale without regard to the change in value of its pipeline imbalances, which vary monthly based on commodity prices, and without regard to the non-cash mark-to-market adjustments on transportation contracts classified as derivative instruments.

**Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow**

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A"), merger costs, exploration expenses and impairment expenses and other similar non-cash or non-recurring charges.

**Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Chord and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Attributable to Chord Per Share** 

Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Chord and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Attributable to Chord Per Share are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures that are used by management and external users of the Company's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Chord as net income attributable to Chord after adjusting for (1) the impact of certain non-cash items, including non-cash changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, non-cash changes in the fair value of our investment in an unconsolidated affiliate, impairment and other similar non-cash charges, (2) merger costs and (3) the impact of taxes based on the Company's effective tax rate applicable to those adjusting items in the same period. Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Chord is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP.

The Company calculates earnings per share under the two-class method in accordance with GAAP. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that computes earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Attributable to Chord Per Share is calculated as (i) Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Chord (ii) less distributed and undistributed earnings allocated to participating securities (iii) divided by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding for the periods presented.

The following table presents reconciliations of the GAAP financial measure of net income attributable to Chord to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Chord and the GAAP financial measure of diluted earnings attributable to Chord per share to the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted Diluted Earnings Attributable to Chord Per Share for the periods presented:
