Third quarter production levels increased 8% versus the second quarter of 2025. Revenues and average realized prices per Boe were improved in the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 versus the same periods in 2024. Drilling & Completion Operations Three wells from the Company's ongoing one-rig Cherokee development program were turned to sales during the third quarter. The third well came online in the last three weeks of the quarter, and each will continue to benefit production levels going forward. The four wells turned to sales since the start of the program generated average per well peak 30-day IP rates of approximately 2,000 gross Boe per day (~43% oil). The first well in the program produced more than 275,000 gross Boe (~42% oil) in its first 170 days of production. Operating Costs During the third quarter and nine months of 2025, lease operating expense ("LOE") was $10.9 million and $28.4 million or $6.25 and $5.71 per Boe, respectively. Lease operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased in total and per Boe versus the same period in 2024 primarily due to an increase in labor, utility and other costs and increased operational activity associated with the Company's Cherokee acquisition and drilling program. Liquidity & Capital Structure As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $102.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, deposited with multiple, well-capitalized financial institutions.

Share Repurchases The Company continues to opportunistically repurchase shares under its 10b5-1 program. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 0.6 million shares for $6.4 million at an average price of $10.72 per share. Of the $75.0 million repurchase authorization, $68.3 million remained. Outlook We remain committed to growing the value of our asset base in a safe, responsible and efficient manner, while prudently allocating capital to high-return, growth projects. Currently, these projects include: (1) one-rig development in the Cherokee Shale Play (2) evaluation of accretive merger and acquisition opportunities, with consideration of our strong balance sheet and commitment to our capital return program (3) production optimization program through artificial lift conversions to more efficient and cost-effective systems and (4) a leasing program that will bolster future development and extend development in our Cherokee assets. We are developing our term acreage in the Cherokee Play, and our total leasehold position, inclusive of the Cherokee, NW Stack and legacy assets, is approximately 95% held by production, which cost-effectively maintains our development option over a reasonable tenor. We will continue to monitor forward-looking commodity prices, project results, costs, impacts of tariffs and other factors that could influence returns and cash flows, and will adjust our program accordingly, to include curtailment of capital activity and wells, if needed, or conversely, well reactivations in higher commodity price environments. These and other factors, including reasonable reinvestment rates, maintaining our cash flows and prioritizing our regular-way dividend, will continue to shape our development decisions for the remainder of the year and beyond. Environmental, Social, & Governance ("ESG") SandRidge maintains its Environmental, Social, and Governance ("ESG") commitment to harvesting the Company's resources in a safe and environmentally conscious manner, to include no routine flaring of produced natural gas, transporting nearly all of our produced water via pipeline instead of truck, and powering nearly all our well sites with electricity, mitigating the need for less efficient power sources. Via a 24-hour manned operations center and dedicated personnel trained in the use of infrared leak detection and other specialized equipment, the Company continually monitors our asset base for potential emissions and continually works to optimize efficiency through initiatives such as proactive artificial lift upgrades that reduce SandRidge's electric power consumption. Additionally, SandRidge maintains an emphasis on the safety and training of our workforce with a demonstrable safety track record integral to our culture. The Company has personnel dedicated to the close monitoring of our safety standards and daily operations.

These non-GAAP measures are not alternatives to GAAP measures, and you should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Below is additional disclosure regarding each of the non-GAAP measures used in this press release, including reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure. Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Adjusted Operating Cash Flow The Company defines adjusted operating cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities before changes in operating assets and liabilities as shown in the following table. Adjusted operating cash flow is a supplemental financial measure used by the Company's management and by securities analysts, investors, lenders, rating agencies and others who follow the industry as an indicator of the Company's ability to internally fund exploration and development activities or incur new debt. The Company also uses this measure because operating cash flow relates to the timing of cash receipts and disbursements that the Company may not control and may not relate to the period in which the operating activities occurred. Further, adjusted operating cash flow allows the Company to compare its operating performance and return on capital with those of other companies without regard to financing methods and capital structure. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Free cash flow is a supplemental financial measure used by the Company's management and by securities analysts, investors, lenders, rating agencies and others who follow the industry as an indicator of the Company's ability to internally fund exploration and development activities or incur new debt. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net cash provided by operating or investing activities prepared in accordance with GAAP. Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 2024 2025 2024 (In thousands) Net cash provided by operating activities $ 25,269 $ 20,847 $ 68,450 $ 47,940 Net cash used in investing activities (22,383) (133,543) (46,128) (138,662) Acquisition of assets 3,363 123,847 7,790 125,950 Proceeds from sale of assets (330) (290) (785) (861) Free cash flow $ 5,919 $ 10,861 $ 29,327 $ 34,367 Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA The Company defines EBITDA as net income before income tax (benefit) expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization - other and depreciation and depletion - oil and natural gas. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented herein, is EBITDA excluding items that management believes affect the comparability of operating results such as items whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated or are non-recurring, as shown in the following tables. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides useful additional information used by the Company's management and by securities analysts, investors, lenders, ratings agencies and others who follow the industry for analysis of the Company's financial and operating performance on a recurring basis and the Company's ability to internally fund exploration and development activities or incur new debt. In addition, management believes that adjusted EBITDA is widely used by professional research analysts and others in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies in the oil and gas industry. The Company's adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Management uses the supplemental measure of adjusted net income as an indicator of the Company's operational trends and performance relative to other oil and natural gas companies and believes it is more comparable to earnings estimates provided by securities analysts. Adjusted net income is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net income available to common stockholders.

This non-GAAP measure allows for the analysis of general and administrative spend without regard to stock-based compensation programs and other non-recurring cash items, if any, which can vary significantly between companies. Adjusted G&A per Boe is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for general and administrative expense per Boe. Therefore, the Company's Adjusted G&A per Boe may not be comparable to other companies' similarly titled measures. The Company defines adjusted G&A as general and administrative expense adjusted for certain non-cash stock-based compensation and other non-recurring items, if any, as shown in the following tables: Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 $ $/Boe $ $/Boe (In thousands, except per Boe amounts) General and administrative $ 2,737 $ 1.57 $ 2,304 $ 1.47 Stock-based compensation (688) (0.39) (707) (0.45) Other 80 0.05 — — Adjusted G&A $ 2,129 $ 1.23 $ 1,597 $ 1.02 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 $ $/Boe $ $/Boe (In thousands, except per Boe amounts) General and administrative $ 9,618 $ 1.93 $ 8,686 $ 2.02 Stock-based compensation (2,058) (0.41) (1,779) (0.41) Other (111) (0.02) — — Adjusted G&A $ 7,449 $ 1.50 $ 6,907 $ 1.61 Cautionary Note to Investors - This press release includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
