Asset Overview
Magnolia's Acquisition Strategy
Acquisitions are targeted to not simply replace the oil & gas that has already been produced but importantly, to improve the overall resource opportunity set, enhance the durability of our business model, and sustain our high returns
Magnolia's core competency is acquiring small, bolt-on oil and gas properties (including new leases, incremental working interests, and minerals) that have similar attractive operational and financial characteristics to our core assets.

Inception Current
We pursue asset acquisitions that leverages our accumulated technical knowledge and appraisal work, and that are extensions of areas where we currently operate. Any acquisition or bolt-on addition should:
Improve our overall business and be measured against reinvesting in the existing assets
Focus on the Eagle Ford/Austin Chalk trend, mainly in South TX where we have a competitive advantage and extensive subsurface knowledge
Provide upside optionality and development
opportunities with a relatively low cost of entry
Magnolia has successfully executed this strategy since inception, improving the overall business and value per share, and in large part through acquiring more of what it already owns

South Texas Bolt-On Acquisitions
Oil and Gas Property Acquisition Highlights
Acquisitions in both Karnes area and Giddings furthers Magnolia's successful strategy of bolting on acreage with minimal production in areas we currently operate
Acquired ~6,200 net acres in the Karnes area (Karnes and Gonzales
counties) and Giddings for ~$155 MM in cash
Includes ~500 BOEPD (~45% oil) of low decline PDP
Within existing acreage footprint in a highly productive area
Existing Acreage
Acquired Acreage Increased WI
Includes working interest and additional royalty interest
Adds multiple years of development locations in the Karnes area at
Magnolia's development pace
Working interest (WI) in area increases to ~93% (increases WI to existing Magnolia tracts and acquired tracts) with an average NRI ~80%
Creates a largely contiguous ~10,000 gross acre bloc of primarily undeveloped acreage in Karnes and Gonzales counties that allows for longer lateral development
Includes additional economic royalty interests
Giddings Area Assets
~742,000 gross acres (~562,000 net acres) with high working interest (~98% operated)
240,000 net acres in development
- Active appraisal program outside of development area
Q1 2026 production averaged 83.9 Mboe/d (35% oil, 66% liquids), or ~82% of total Company production
Shallower production decline allows for a low reinvestment rate, and more stable cash flows
Core Karnes Assets
Asset Overview
Mature asset offers significant free cash flow and a
low base production decline
Acreage located in the core of the Eagle Ford offering very strong economic returns in Karnes, Gonzales and DeWitt counties
