Talos Energy Announces Third Quarter 2024 Operational and Financial Results

Houston, Texas, November 11, 2024 – Talos Energy Inc. (“Talos” or the “Company”) (NYSE: TALO) today announced its operational and financial results for fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Recent Key Highlights

Third Quarter Summary

Talos Interim President and Chief Executive Officer Joseph Mills stated, “For the third quarter 2024, we are proud to report that we achieved another consecutive quarter of record production of 96.5 MBoe/d, along with strong Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow. This is a testament to our team’s focus on delivering results. Our solid cash flow generation enabled us to continue making strides in reducing our debt and attain 0.9x leverage, below our target leverage of 1.0x. We remain focused on paying down the balance of our debt under the Bank Credit Facility by year end 2024. Since closing the QuarterNorth acquisition in March 2024, we have repaid $425 million of debt, demonstrating our focus on maintaining a strong balance sheet and financial flexibility.

“Regarding our drilling and recompletion program, we are pleased with the results of the re-completion at the 100% Talos-owned Brutus A3 well in July 2024, which yielded a peak production rate of over 30 MMcf/d during the third quarter. We are also pleased about the previously announced Ewing Bank 953 well results in September 2024 and the acquired non-operated stake in the Monument deepwater discovery in August 2024. We logged better than expected rock properties at our Ewing Bank 953 well, which we anticipate will be producing by mid-2026. Our participation in the non-operated Monument project, a large deepwater oil and gas discovery in the Wilcox trend, presents an attractive post-FID subsea tie-back opportunity, including a potential drilling opportunity beyond the appraised discovery.

“Additionally, we recently began drilling the first of three consecutive high-impact subsalt wells utilizing the West Vela deepwater drillship, starting with the Katmai West #2 appraisal well in October 2024, to be followed by the Daenerys and Helm’s Deep prospects in 2025. We are placing a strong emphasis on operational execution and capital discipline as we embark on a very important drilling campaign.

“I’m honored to have stepped in as interim CEO of Talos at the beginning of September 2024, allowing me the opportunity to work more closely with our highly skilled and talented employees to achieve these results. The Board, in partnership with an external search firm, is diligently searching for a new CEO who can build on Talos’s strong foundation and lead the Company into its next phase of growth. I have the utmost confidence in our management team, Board, and the future direction and strategy of the Company. Talos’s management team and Board are laser-focused on executing our strategic initiatives and maximizing long-term stockholder value. I’m pleased to be here to ensure a seamless transition until a permanent CEO is named.”

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND OPERATIONS UPDATE

Production Updates:

Katmai: In October 2024, the Seadrill-owned drillship West Vela commenced drilling the Katmai West #2 well which will further appraise the field, potentially adding additional proved reserves. The well is expected to reach total depth early in the first quarter 2025. In preparation of the completion of Katmai West #2 well, modifications to the host facility, Tarantula, have been completed between October and November 2024, and has increased capacity from 27 MBoe/d to 35 MBoe/d. Talos projects achieving first production from the Katmai West #2 well in the second quarter 2025. We anticipate the Katmai wells will be rate-constrained under the upgraded capacity allowing for extended flat-to-low decline production from the facility. Talos holds a 50% W.I. and Ridgewood Energy holds a 50% W.I. in Katmai. Talos is the 100% owner and operator of the Tarantula facility.

Sunspear Completion: In October 2024, Talos secured a rig contract for Transocean’s Deepwater Conqueror to complete the Sunspear discovery. The Sunspear well, successfully drilled in July 2023, is expected to commence first production during the second quarter 2025, with production flowing to the Talos operated Prince platform. The initial gross production rate is estimated to be between 8 – 10 Mboe/d. Talos holds a 48.0% W.I., an entity managed by Ridgewood Energy Corporation holds a 47.5% W.I., and Houston Energy holds a 4.5% W.I.

Brutus Re-completion: In July 2024, the 100% Talos-owned Brutus A-3 well was re-completed to the E1/E2 sand, yielding higher rates than expected, and reached a peak production rate of over 30 million cubic feet per day.

Exploitation and Exploration Updates:

Ewing Bank 953: In September 2024, Ewing Bank 953 well encountered approximately 127 feet of net pay in the target sand at approximately 19,000 feet true vertical depth. Preliminary data indicates an estimated gross recoverable resource potential of approximately 15 – 25 million barrels of oil equivalent (“MMBoe”) from a single subsea well with an initial gross production rate of 8 – 10 MBoe/d. First production is expected in mid-2026. Current plans are for the well to be tied back to the South Timbalier 311 Megalodon host platform, which Talos partially owns. Talos holds a 33.3% W.I., with Walter Oil & Gas Corp. as operator holding a 56.7% W.I. and Gordy Oil Company holding a 10.0% W.I.

Monument Discovery: In August 2024, Talos acquired a 21.4% W.I. in Monument, a large Wilcox oil discovery located in Walker Ridge blocks 271, 272, 315, and 316, for a purchase price of $32 million. Monument will be developed as a subsea tie-back to the Shenandoah production facility in Walker Ridge. The Monument discovery is post-FID with appraised proved plus probable gross reserves of approximately 115 million barrels of oil equivalent. First production is expected between 20 – 30 MBoe/d gross by late 2026 under restricted flow due to facility rate-constraints. The proved and probable PV-10 of Monument’s reserves is valued at approximately $265 million⁽¹⁾. There is an additional 25 – 35 MMBoe drilling location adjacent to the discovery that could extend the resource. Talos expects a net investment of approximately $25 million in 2024 and approximately $160 million over 2025 and 2026. Other partners include Beacon as operator with a 30.0% W.I., Navitas Petroleum with a 28.6% W.I., and Repsol E&P USA Inc. with a 20.0% W.I.

Daenerys: Talos expects to utilize the West Vela drillship to drill the Daenerys exploration well following the Katmai West #2 well. The Daenerys well is a high-impact subsalt project that will evaluate the regionally prolific Middle and Lower Miocene section and carries an estimated gross resource potential between 100 – 300 MMBoe. The prospect is part of a broader farm-in transaction executed in 2023 that totals approximately 23,000 gross acres in the Walker Ridge area. The well is expected to spud in the first quarter 2025. Talos holds a 27% W.I. and partners include Red Willow, Houston Energy, and Cathexis.

Helm’s Deep: Talos plans to mobilize the West Vela drillship to Helms Deep after completing drilling operations at Daenerys. The West Vela is expected to commence drilling at Helms Deep, an amplitude-supported, near-infrastructure subsalt Pliocene exploitation well, in the third quarter 2025. The Helms Deep well has a proposed depth of approximately 18,000 feet and an estimated gross resource potential between 17 - 27 MMBoe. Talos is targeting a 50.0% W.I.

Sebastian: Drilling of the Sebastian prospect in the third quarter 2024 encountered non-commercial quantities of hydrocarbons and has been plugged and abandoned. Talos held a 25.0% W.I., with Murphy Oil Corporation as operator holding a 26.8% W.I., Westlawn Americas Offshore a 18.2% W.I, Alta Mar Energy holding a 20.0% W.I., and Houston Energy holding a 10.0% W.I.

Other Business Developments

Common Stock Repurchase Program: Year-to-date 2024, Talos repurchased approximately 4.0 million shares of common stock for approximately $45.1 million. As of September 30, 2024, there is $157.5 million remaining under the authorized plan. The timing of future repurchases under the share repurchase program will depend on market conditions, contractual limitations, and other considerations. The program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time, and does not obligate the Company to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares.

Limited Duration Stockholder Rights Plan: In October 2024, Talos’s Board adopted a limited duration stockholder rights Plan (the “Rights Plan”). The Board adopted the Rights Plan solely in response to the continued accumulation of approximately 24% of shares of Talos common stock by Control Empresarial De Capitales (“Control Empresarial”). The Rights Plan is similar to those adopted by other publicly traded companies and is intended to enable all Talos stockholders to realize the long-term value of their investment and protect Talos from any future efforts to obtain control of Talos that are inconsistent with the best interests of its stockholders. Control Empresarial has been an important Talos stockholder and Talos will continue to maintain an active and constructive dialogue with Control Empresarial.

Audit Committee Internal Review: In September 2024, the Company received notification from an external third party suggesting a mid-level employee was engaged in inappropriate procurement practices. In response, the Audit Committee of the Company’s board of directors, conducted a review of such alleged practices by engaging independent external legal counsel to assist in reviewing the matter and determining the extent of such activities. Such review with external legal counsel did not identify or implicate other current or former employees and the employee was separated from the Company. The Audit Committee also has not identified any related material errors in the historical financial statements.

Talos plans to file an amended Form 10-K/A to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our “Annual Report”), and an amended Form 10-Q/A for each of the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024, (together, our “Quarterly Reports”), respectively, to amend and restate certain disclosures. These amended disclosures will address the material weaknesses identified at the end of 2023 in our internal controls over our financial reporting practices and investors can continue to rely on numbers previously disclosed. Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management has concluded that the financial statements included in our Annual Report and Quarterly reports present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented, in accordance with GAAP. The Company expects to file these amendments and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter end September 30, 2024, on November 12, 2024.

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this communication.

PRODUCTION ESTIMATES

Estimates for our future production volumes are based on assumptions of capital expenditure levels and the assumption that market demand and prices for oil and gas will continue at levels that allow for economic production of these products. The production, transportation, marketing and storage of oil and gas are subject to disruption due to transportation, processing and storage availability, mechanical failure, human error, adverse weather conditions such as hurricanes, global political and macroeconomic events and numerous other factors. Our estimates are based on certain other assumptions, such as well performance, which may vary significantly from those assumed. Therefore, we can give no assurance that our future production volumes will be as estimated.

RESERVE INFORMATION

Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of oil, natural gas and NGLs 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 upward or downward revisions of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions would change the schedule of any further production and development drilling. Accordingly, reserve estimates may differ significantly from the quantities of oil, natural gas and NGLs that are ultimately recovered. In addition, we use the terms “gross recoverable resource potential,” and “gross reserves,” in this release, which are not measures of “reserves” prepared in accordance with SEC guidelines or permitted to be included in SEC filings. These resource estimates are inherently more uncertain than estimates of proved reserves or other reserves prepared in accordance with SEC guidelines.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This release includes the use of certain measures that have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally acceptable accounting principles (GAAP) such as, but not limited to, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, LTM Adjusted EBITDA, Pro Forma LTM Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt, Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt to Pro Forma LTM Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Leverage, Adjusted EBITDA excluding hedges. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Reconciliations for non-GAAP measure to GAAP measures are included at the end of this release.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP INFORMATION

Certain financial information included in our financial results are not measures of financial performance recognized by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be viewed as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures which may be reported by other companies.

Reconciliation of General and Administrative Expenses to Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses

We believe the presentation of Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses provides management and investors with (i) important supplemental indicators of the operational performance of our business, (ii) additional criteria for evaluating our performance relative to our peers and (iii) supplemental information to investors about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted General & Administrative Expenses has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP or as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We define these as the following:

General and Administrative Expenses. General and Administrative Expenses generally consist of costs incurred for overhead, including payroll and benefits for our corporate staff, costs of maintaining our headquarters, costs of managing our production operations, bad debt expense, equity-based compensation expense, audit and other fees for professional services and legal compliance. A portion of these expenses are allocated based on the percentage of employees dedicated to each operating segment.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

“EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” provide management and investors with (i) additional information to evaluate, with certain adjustments, items required or permitted in calculating covenant compliance under our debt agreements, (ii) important supplemental indicators of the operational performance of our business, (iii) additional criteria for evaluating our performance relative to our peers and (iv) supplemental information to investors about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP or as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We define these as the following:

EBITDA. Net income (loss) plus interest expense; income tax expense (benefit); depreciation, depletion and amortization; and accretion expense.

Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA plus non-cash write-down of oil and natural gas properties, transaction and other (income) expenses, decommissioning obligations, the net change in fair value of derivatives (mark to market effect, net of cash settlements and premiums related to these derivatives), (gain) loss on debt extinguishment, non-cash write-down of other well equipment and non-cash equity-based compensation expense.

Adjusted EBITDA excluding hedges. We have historically provided as a supplement to—rather than in lieu of—Adjusted EBITDA including hedges, provides useful information regarding our results of operations and profitability by illustrating the operating results of our oil and natural gas properties without the benefit or detriment, as applicable, of our financial oil and natural gas hedges. By excluding our oil and natural gas hedges, we are able to convey actual operating results using realized market prices during the period, thereby providing analysts and investors with additional information they can use to evaluate the impacts of our hedging strategies over time.

The following tables present a reconciliation of the GAAP financial measure of Net Income (loss) to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding hedges for each of the periods indicated (in thousands):

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Adjusted Free Cash Flow

“Adjusted Free Cash Flow” before changes in working capital provides management and investors with (i) important supplemental indicators of the operational performance of our business, (ii) additional criteria for evaluating our performance relative to our peers and (iii) supplemental information to investors about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted Free Cash Flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP or as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We define these as the following:

Capital Expenditures and Plugging & Abandonment. Actual capital expenditures and plugging & abandonment recognized in the quarter, inclusive of accruals.

Interest Expense. Actual interest expense per the income statement.

Talos did not pay any cash income taxes in the period, therefore cash income taxes have no impact to the reported Adjusted Free Cash Flow before changes in working capital number.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings per Share

“Adjusted Net Income (Loss)” and “Adjusted Earnings per Share” are to provide management and investors with (i) important supplemental indicators of the operational performance of our business, (ii) additional criteria for evaluating our performance relative to our peers and (iii) supplemental information to investors about certain material non-cash and/or other items that may not continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings per Share have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP or as an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss), earnings per share or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss). Net income (loss) plus accretion expense, transaction related costs, derivative fair value (gain) loss, net cash receipts (payments) on settled derivative instruments and non-cash equity-based compensation expense.

Adjusted Earnings per Share. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by the number of common shares.

Reconciliation of Total Debt to Net Debt and Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA

We believe the presentation of Net Debt, LTM Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to Pro Forma LTM Adjusted EBITDA is important to provide management and investors with additional important information to evaluate our business. These measures are widely used by investors and ratings agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies.

Net Debt. Total Debt principal minus cash and cash equivalents.

Net Debt to LTM Adjusted EBITDA. Net Debt divided by the LTM Adjusted EBITDA.
