HighPeak President and Chief Executive Officer, Michael Hollis, said“I'm honored to step in as HighPeak's next CEO. With our new Chairman of the Board and the entire team pulling in the same direction, we're moving forward with purpose and a sense of urgency. We know we have some issues to fix: our debt is high, and we have, at times, drifted without a clear long-term plan. We will rebuild trust the only way that works - through steady, consistent results. We will run a tight, disciplined operation built on sound business principles. Our assets are strong, our people are capable, and our commitment to managing cash flow and capital is steadfast.”

Third Quarter 2025 Operational Update

HighPeak's sales volumes during the third quarter of 2025 averaged 47.8 MBoe/d. Third quarter sales volumes consisted of approximately 66% crude oil and 83% liquids.

The Company averaged one drilling rig and less than one frac crew during the third quarter, drilled 6 gross (6.0 net) horizontal wells and turned-in-line 9 gross (8.9 net) producing wells. On September 30, 2025, the Company had 19 gross (19.0 net) horizontal wells in various stages of drilling and completion.

The Company picked up a second drilling rig in early October and recently finished its second simul-frac completion operation on a six well pad in its Flat Top operating area.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

HighPeak reported net loss of $18.3 million for the third quarter of 2025, or ($0.15) per diluted share, and EBITDAX of $139.9 million, or $1.01 per diluted share. Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP financial measure defined and reconciled below) was $2.9 million or $0.02 per diluted share. Upon closing the amendment to our Term Loan Credit Agreement on August 1, 2025, the Company recognized a combined loss on extinguishment of debt of $25.4 million, including the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs of $9.2 million, the remaining unamortized original issue discount of $11.5 million and $4.7 million in premiums paid to exiting lenders.

Third quarter average realized prices were $65.63 per Bbl of crude oil, $17.40 per Bbl of NGL and $1.07 per Mcf of natural gas, resulting in an overall realized price of $42.91 per Boe, or 66% of the weighted average of NYMEX crude oil prices, excluding the effects of derivatives. Including the effects of derivatives, third quarter average realized prices were $65.60 per Bbl of crude oil, $17.40 per Bbl of NGL and $1.92 per Mcf of natural gas, resulting in an overall realized price of $43.74 per Boe. HighPeak's cash costs for the third quarter were $11.97 per Boe, including lease operating expenses of $6.57 per Boe, workover expenses of $1.00 per Boe, production and ad valorem taxes of $2.28 per Boe and G&A expenses of $2.12 per Boe. As a result, the Company's unhedged EBITDAX per Boe was $30.94 per Boe, or 72% of the overall realized price per Boe for the quarter. The increase in the Company's third quarter G&A was primarily attributable to legal and severance costs related to the retirement of our former Chairman and CEO.

HighPeak's total capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, for the third quarter of 2025 were $86.6 million, a decrease of 31% compared with the second quarter of 2025.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The information in this press release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. When used in this document, the words“believes,”“plans,”“expects,”“anticipates,”“forecasts,”“intends,”“continue,”“may,”“will,”“could,”“should,”“future,”“potential,”“estimate” or the negative of such terms and similar expressions as they relate to HighPeak Energy, Inc. (“HighPeak Energy” or the“Company”) are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature. The forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about the Company and the industry in which the Company operates. Although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, they involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, in many cases, beyond the Company's control. For example, the Company's review of strategic alternatives may not result in a sale of the Company, a recommendation that a transaction occur or result in a completed transaction, and any transaction that occurs may not increase shareholder value, in each case as a result of such risks and uncertainties.

These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, the results of the strategic review being undertaken by the Company's Board and the interest of prospective counterparties, the Company's ability to realize the results contemplated by its 2025 guidance, volatility of commodity prices, political instability or armed conflicts in crude or natural gas producing regions such as the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine and conflicts in the Middle East, product supply and demand, the impact of a widespread outbreak of an illness, such as the coronavirus disease pandemic, on global and U.S. economic activity, competition, OPEC+ policy decisions, potential new trade policies, such as tariffs, could adversely affect the Company's operations, business and profitability, inflationary pressures on costs of oilfield goods, services and personnel, the ability to obtain environmental and other permits and the timing thereof, other government regulation or action, the ability to obtain approvals from third parties and negotiate agreements with third parties on mutually acceptable terms, litigation, the costs and results of drilling and operations, availability of equipment, services, resources and personnel required to perform the Company's drilling and operating activities, access to and availability of transportation, processing, fractionation, refining and storage facilities, HighPeak Energy's ability to replace reserves, implement its business plans or complete its development activities as scheduled, access to and cost of capital, the financial strength of counterparties to any credit facility and derivative contracts entered into by HighPeak Energy, if any, and purchasers of HighPeak Energy's oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas production, uncertainties about estimates of reserves, identification of drilling locations and the ability to add proved reserves in the future, the assumptions underlying forecasts, including forecasts of production, expenses, cash flow from sales of oil and gas and tax rates, quality of technical data, environmental and weather risks, including the possible impacts of climate change, cybersecurity risks and acts of war or terrorism. These and other risks are described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings with the SEC. The Company undertakes no duty to publicly update these statements except as required by law.

Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of hydrocarbons 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. Reserves estimates included herein may not be indicative of the level of reserves or PV-10 value of oil and natural gas production in the future. In addition, the results of drilling, testing and production activities may justify revisions of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions could impact HighPeak's strategy and change the schedule of any further production and development drilling. Accordingly, reserve estimates may differ significantly from the quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered.

Use of Projections

The financial, operational, industry and market projections, estimates and targets in this press release and in the Company's guidance (including production, operating expenses and capital expenditures in future periods) are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company's control. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the financial, operational, industry and market projections, estimates and targets, including assumptions, risks and uncertainties described in“Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above. These projections are speculative by their nature and, accordingly, are subject to significant risk of not being actually realized by the Company. Projected results of the Company for 2025 are particularly speculative and subject to change. Actual results may vary materially from the current projections, including for reasons beyond the Company's control. The projections are based on current expectations and available information as of the date of this release. The Company undertakes no duty to publicly update these projections except as required by law.

Drilling Locations

The Company has estimated its drilling locations based on well spacing assumptions and upon the evaluation of its drilling results and those of other operators in its area, combined with its interpretation of available geologic and engineering data. The drilling locations actually drilled on the Company's properties will depend on the availability of capital, regulatory approvals, commodity prices, costs, actual drilling results and other factors. Any drilling activities conducted on these identified locations may not be successful and may not result in additional proved reserves. Further, to the extent the drilling locations are associated with acreage that expires, the Company would lose its right to develop the related locations.
