**Management Commentary**

"2025 marked our third consecutive year of operational execution as a public company, and I could not be more proud of our team's achievements," said Will Hickey, Co-CEO of Permian Resources. "As we head into 2026, I am confident that our team will continue to leverage their technical skills and continuous learnings to improve upon our cost leadership position in the Delaware Basin."

"Permian Resources' focus has always been on delivering peer-leading free cash flow per share growth and peer-leading total shareholder returns," said James Walter, Co-CEO of Permian Resources. "Going forward, we are well-positioned to continue delivering outsized value creation for shareholders. We have a high-quality inventory base in the top U.S. oil shale basin, a tremendous team with a track-record of low-cost execution, a strong pipeline of attractive acquisition opportunities and a balance sheet that allows us to continue to pursue an "all of the above" capital allocation strategy."

**Financial and Operational Results**

During the fourth quarter, average daily crude oil production was 188,633 barrels of oil per day ("Bbls/d"), a 1% increase compared to the prior quarter. Reported NGL and natural gas volumes were 102,131 Bbls/d and 664,265 Mcf/d, respectively. Total production was 401,475 barrels of oil equivalent per day ("Boe/d").

The Company continues to increase operational efficiencies, driving down drilling and completions costs per foot. For the fourth quarter, drilling and completion costs per lateral foot were approximately $700, a 14% reduction from 2024. Total cash capital expenditures ("capex") for the quarter were $481 million. "During the fourth quarter, we continued to set new company records in the field, including the highest average feet drilled per day and the lowest completions cost per foot," said Will Hickey, Co-CEO.

Realized prices for the quarter were $58.78 per barrel of oil, $15.44 per barrel of NGLs and $0.07 per Mcf of natural gas. The Company demonstrated strong cost control in the fourth quarter, with total controllable cash costs (LOE, GP&T and cash G&A) decreasing $0.12 per Boe quarter-over-quarter to $7.24 per Boe. Fourth quarter LOE was $5.26 per Boe, GP&T was $1.18 per Boe and cash G&A was $0.80 per Boe.

For the fourth quarter, Permian Resources generated net cash provided by operating activities of $904 million, adjusted operating cash flow<sup>1</sup> of $884 million and adjusted free cash flow<sup>1</sup> of $403 million. Adjusted diluted shares<sup>1</sup> outstanding were 845.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025.

**Acquisitions Update**

During the fourth quarter, Permian Resources continued to build upon its ground game success, executing approximately 140 bolt-on and grassroots transactions. Combined, the Company added 7,700 net leasehold acres and 1,300 net royalty acres for total consideration of $240 million, reflecting an acquisition value of $26,000 per net leasehold acre and $15,000 per net royalty acre. Essentially all of the acquisition capital during the fourth quarter was invested in New Mexico, further strengthening the Company's core Northern Delaware position.

"2025 was another great year for our acquisition effort, with the combination of ground game and larger acquisitions equating to over $1 billion for the second year in a row," said James Walter, Co-CEO. "Our Delaware Basin cost structure and local relationships with sellers provide us with a durable competitive advantage for continuing to execute accretive acquisitions."

**2026 Operational Plan and Targets**

Permian Resources' 2026 operational plan is focused on maximizing free cash flow per share for its investors and delivering improved year-over-year capital efficiency through the combination of consistent well productivity and lower costs. Assuming planned activity levels and current commodity prices, the Company expects its full year oil and total production to average approximately 186 to 192 MBbls/d and 400 to 430 MBoe/d, respectively. The estimated 2026 cash capex budget is approximately $1.75 billion to $1.95 billion, of which approximately $400

------

million is allocated to facilities, infrastructure, capital workover and non-operated capex. Notably, this represents annual oil production growth of approximately 4%, while delivering a 6% lower capital budget year-over-year.

"Through consistent well productivity and lower costs, we continue to drive materially higher capital efficiency. As a result, we expect to deliver approximately 20% higher annual oil production compared to 2024 with 10% lower capital expenditures, clearly demonstrating this improvement," said Will Hickey, Co-CEO.

Permian Resources expects to turn-in-line ("TIL") approximately 250 gross wells, with an average working interest of 75% to 80% and 8/8ths net revenue interest of approximately 79%. The Company also expects its average lateral length during 2026 to be approximately 11,000 feet, an increase of 500 feet from the previous year. Through realized efficiency gains, the Company's capital budget is further supported by an approximately 8% reduction in D&C costs per foot compared to 2025. Similar to the previous year, Permian Resources anticipates that approximately 65% of its 2026 operating activity will be directed towards New Mexico and approximately 30% towards the Texas Delaware Basin, with the remaining portion to be allocated to its Midland Basin position.

Through its continued focus on remaining the Delaware Basin's low-cost leader, Permian Resources anticipates total controllable cash costs of $7.15 to $8.15 per Boe in 2026. Specifically, controllable cash costs consist of approximately $5.45 per Boe for LOE, $1.40 per Boe for GP&T expense and $0.80 per Boe for cash G&A. The Company expects its oil realizations to average 97% to 100% of WTI during 2026. Permian Resources estimates its average realized revenue from natural gas to be approximately $0.25 to $0.75 per Mcf premium versus Waha Hub pricing and its NGLs to be approximately 23% to 25% of WTI.

**Shareholder Returns**

Permian Resources announced today that its Board of Directors (the "Board") declared the Company's first quarter 2026 base dividend of $0.16 per share of Class A common stock, a 7% increase from $0.15 per share previously. Since its inception in 2022, Permian Resources has grown its inaugural quarterly base dividend of $0.05 per share at a compound annual growth rate of over 40%, reflecting the Company's commitment to delivering a sustainable and growing base dividend. The Company's first quarter base dividend is payable on March 31, 2026 to shareholders of record as of March 17, 2026. The Company's base dividend represents an annualized yield of 3.6% as of February 24, 2026.

**Year-End 2025 Proved Reserves**

Permian Resources reported year-end 2025 total proved reserves of 1,116 MMBoe compared to 1,027 MMBoe at prior year-end. At year-end 2025, proved reserves consisted of 43% oil, 26% natural gas liquids and 31% natural gas. Proved developed reserves were 794 MMBoe (71% of total proved reserves) at December 31, 2025. Netherland Sewell & Associates, Inc., an independent reserve engineering firm, prepared Permian Resources' year-end reserves estimate for the year ended December 31, 2025.

**Annual Report on Form 10-K**

Permian Resources' financial statements and related footnotes will be available in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 26, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the other risks described in our filings with the SEC.

Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas 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 of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions would change the schedule of any further production and development drilling.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), our earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures as described below.

***Adjusted EBITDAX***

Adjusted EBITDAX is 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 attributable to Class A Common Stock before net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairment and abandonment expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash gains or losses on derivatives, stock-based compensation, exploration and other expenses, gain/loss from the sale of long-lived assets and other non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDAX is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP.

Our management believes Adjusted EBITDAX is useful as 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 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 nonrecurring 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 Adjusted EBITDAX to net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

***Net Debt-to-LQA EBITDAX***

Net debt-to-LQA EBITDAX, also referred to as leverage, is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define net debt as total debt, net, plus unamortized debt discount, premium and issuance costs on our senior notes minus cash and cash equivalents.

We define net debt-to-LQA EBITDAX as net debt (defined above) divided by Adjusted EBITDAX (defined and reconciled in the section above) for the three months ended December 31, 2025, on an annualized basis. We refer to this metric to show trends that investors may find useful in understanding our ability to service our debt. This metric is widely used by professional research analysts, including credit analysts, in the valuation and comparison of companies in the oil and gas exploration and production industry. The following table presents a reconciliation of net debt to total debt, net and the calculation of net debt-to-LQA EBITDAX for the period presented:

***Adjusted Shares***

Adjusted basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding ("Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares") are non-GAAP financial measures defined as basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding adjusted to reflect the weighted average shares of our Class C Common Stock outstanding and the effect of the conversion of our Convertible Senior Notes during the period.

Our Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares provide a comparable per share measurement when presenting results such as adjusted free cash flow and adjusted net income that include the interests of both net income attributable to Class A Common Stock and the net income attributable to our noncontrolling interest. Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares are used in calculating several metrics that we use as supplemental financial measurements in the evaluation of our business.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted Basic and Diluted Shares to basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding, which are the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

***Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow***

Adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used by management and external users of our consolidated financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. We define adjusted operating cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted to remove changes in working capital, merger and integration and other non-recurring charges, and estimated tax distributions to our non-controlling interest owners. Adjusted operating cash flows is reduced by total cash capital expenditures to arrive at adjusted free cash flows.

Our management believes adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are useful indicators of the Company's ability to internally fund its future exploration and development activities, to service its existing level of indebtedness or incur additional debt, without regard to the timing of settlement of either operating assets and liabilities, its merger and integration and other non-recurring costs or estimated tax distributions to noncontrolling interest owners after funding its capital expenditures paid for the period. The Company believes that these measures, as so adjusted, present meaningful indicators of the Company's actual sources and uses of capital associated with its operations conducted during the applicable period. Our computation of adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP or as indicators of our operating performance or liquidity.

Adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are not financial measures that are determined in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:

<sup>(1)</sup> Reflects estimated future distributions to noncontrolling interest owners based upon current federal and state income tax expense recognized during the period and expected to be paid by the partnership. Such estimates are based upon the noncontrolling interest ownership percentage as of December 31, 2025.

***Adjusted Net Income***

Adjusted net income is 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 net income as net income attributable to Class A Common Stock plus net income attributable to noncontrolling interest adjusted for loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash gains or losses on derivatives, merger and integration expense, other nonrecurring charges, impairment and abandonment expense, gain/loss from the sale of long-lived assets and the related income tax adjustments for these items. Adjusted net income is not a measure of net income as determined by GAAP.

Our management believes adjusted net income is useful as 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 by excluding certain non-cash items that can vary significantly. Adjusted net income 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. Our presentation of adjusted net income should not be construed as an inference that our results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Our computations of adjusted net income may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted net income is not a financial measure that is determined in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the following table presents a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP:
