Highlights for the first quarter include:
•Produced 174,200 BOEPD, exceeding the high end of quarterly guidance due to outperformance in the Eagle Ford Shale and strong uptime in the Gulf of America
•Spud Bubale-1X, the third exploration well in Côte d’Ivoire
•Progressed the Hai Su Vang-3X appraisal well in Vietnam, with results from the full appraisal program anticipated in the third quarter of 2026
•Spud the Chinook #8 well in the Gulf of America, a key development well expected to come online in the second half of this year with a gross initial production rate of 15 MBOEPD
•Brought online 15 wells in the Eagle Ford Shale, with the wells driving a 17 percent improvement in 60-day cumulative oil production compared to wells drilled in 2025
Subsequent to the first quarter:
•Approved development of the Banjo and Cello fields, targeting first production in the fourth quarter of 2027
•In late March, Murphy submitted an offer for four exploration blocks in offshore Cameroon which was accepted subsequent to quarter end; final terms are pending further discussions with the Republic of Cameroon
“During these uncertain times, our strategy is to stay anchored to what we control—disciplined capital allocation, safe and reliable operations, and our long‑cycle projects. In the first quarter, this focus translated into strong execution across our portfolio with meaningful progress at Lac Da Vang in Vietnam, advancement of the high-impact Chinook #8 well in the Gulf of America, and sustained outperformance from our US and Canada onshore programs,” stated Eric M. Hambly, President and Chief Executive Officer.
SHAREHOLDER RETURNS
During the first quarter of 2026, we paid $50 million in quarterly dividends.
While the Company elected not to repurchase shares this quarter, it retained significant flexibility, with $550 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization and 143.3 million shares outstanding as of March 31, 2026.
FINANCIAL POSITION
Murphy had approximately $2.38 billion of liquidity on March 31, 2026, comprised of the undrawn $2.00 billion senior unsecured credit facility and approximately $380 million of cash and cash equivalents, inclusive of NCI. During the quarter, Murphy paid down $100 million of debt under the senior unsecured credit facility.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This news release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are useful tools for internal use and the investment community in evaluating Murphy Oil Corporation’s overall financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are broadly used to value and compare companies in the crude oil and natural gas industry. Not all companies define these measures in the same way. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should therefore be considered only as supplemental to such GAAP financial measures. Please see the attached schedules for reconciliations of the
6
differences between the non-GAAP financial measures used in this news release and the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
† In accordance with GAAP, Murphy reports the 100 percent interest, including a 20 percent noncontrolling interest (NCI), in its subsidiary, MP Gulf of Mexico, LLC (MP GOM). The GAAP financials include the NCI portion of revenue, costs, assets and liabilities and cash flows. Unless otherwise noted, the financial and operating highlights and metrics discussed in this news release, but not the accompanying schedules, exclude the NCI, thereby representing only the amounts attributable to Murphy.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Presented above is a reconciliation of net cash provided by continuing operations activities to free cash flow (FCF) and adjusted FCF. Management believes FCF and adjusted FCF are important information to provide because they are additional measures of liquidity and are used by management to evaluate the Company’s ability to internally generate cash, excluding the timing impacts of working capital, and to measure funds available for investing and financing activities. Management also believes this information may be useful to investors and analysts to monitor the Company’s financial health over time. FCF and adjusted FCF are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered a substitute for net cash provided by operating, investing, or financing activities as determined in accordance with GAAP.
