Barrels of oil per day (BOPD), barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) and barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOEPD).

Highlights for the third quarter include:

  • Produced 186,500 BOEPD, above quarterly guidance of 171,000 to 179,000 BOEPD, driven by accelerated Eagle Ford Shale activity, new well outperformance and lower royalties in the Tupper Montney, and minimal storm downtime in the Gulf of America
  • Raised full-year production guidance to a range of 176,000 to 178,000 BOEPD, reflecting a 6,000 BOEPD midpoint increase
  • Advanced the Bubale appraisal program offshore Côte d’Ivoire, with the Bubale West-1X well encountering approximately 88 feet of net oil pay in the Turonian reservoir and additional hydrocarbons in the deeper Albian reservoir
  • Discovered oil at the Lac Da Trang (White Camel) North-1X exploration well offshore Vietnam, encountering approximately 131 feet of net oil pay
  • Achieved first oil from the Lac Da Vang (Golden Camel) development offshore Vietnam, less than three years after project sanction
  • Commenced production from the Chinook #8 development well in the Gulf of America, with production in line with expectations
  • Brought online 14 operated and four non-operated wells in the Eagle Ford Shale and eight wells in the Tupper Montney

Subsequent to the third quarter:

  • Secured six exploration blocks from the August Gulf of America federal offshore lease sale
  • Signed agreements with the government of Mauritania for two offshore exploration blocks

“The results we delivered this quarter reflect our ability to create value at every stage of the asset life cycle. From finding oil to efficiently bringing it online and reliably operating our assets, this breadth of capabilities is what differentiates Murphy,” stated Eric M. Hambly, President and Chief Executive Officer.

SHAREHOLDER RETURNS

During the third quarter of 2026, Murphy paid $50 million in quarterly dividends to the shareholders.

While the Company elected not to repurchase shares in the third quarter, it retains significant flexibility with $550 million remaining under its share repurchase authorization. As of September 30, 2026, there were 143.4 million shares outstanding.

FINANCIAL POSITION

Murphy had approximately $2.50 billion of liquidity on September 30, 2026, comprised of the undrawn $2.00 billion senior unsecured credit facility and approximately $500 million of cash and cash equivalents, inclusive of NCI.

As of September 30, 2026, Murphy’s total debt was $1.63 billion, approximately $80 million higher than the prior quarter, reflecting the recognition of a finance lease for the Lac Da Vang FSO (Floating Storage and Offloading) vessel in Vietnam through 2039. The Company’s $1.54 billion of long-term, fixed-rate notes have a weighted average maturity of 8.4 years and a weighted average coupon of 6.3 percent.

ONSHORE OPERATIONS SUMMARY

In the third quarter of 2026, the onshore business produced approximately 125,400 BOEPD, which included 34 percent liquids.

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 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 income (loss) to adjusted net income from continuing operations attributable to Murphy. Adjusted net income excludes certain items that management believes affect the comparability of results between periods. Management believes this is important information to provide because it is used by management to evaluate the Company’s operational performance and trends between periods and relative to its industry competitors. Management also believes this information may be useful to investors and analysts to gain a better understanding of the Company’s financial results. Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered a substitute for net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP.

The pretax and income tax impacts for adjustments in the above table are shown below by area of operation and geographical location and corporate, as applicable, and exclude the share attributable to noncontrolling interests.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Presented above is a reconciliation of net cash provided by continuing operations activities to free cash flow (FCF), adjusted FCF and net debt. Net debt is defined as total debt, including long-term and current maturities of notes payable and finance lease obligations, net of cash and cash equivalents. 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. Management believes net debt may be useful to investors and analysts to gain a better understanding of the Company’s financial position across periods on a consistent basis. The Company’s definition of net debt is limited and does not wholly represent the Company’s ability to service debt due to the absence of other obligations or payments. FCF, adjusted FCF and net debt are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered a substitute for net cash provided by operating, investing, financing activities and other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
