HOUSTON, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / November 17, 2025 / EON Resources Inc. (NYSE American:EONR) ("EON" or the "Company") is an independent upstream energy company with 20,000 leasehold acres in the Permian Basin. The fields have a total of 750 producing and injection wells producing over 1,000 barrels of oil per day. Today, the Company reports revenue and earnings for the third quarter of 2025.

Key third quarter highlights:

On September 9, 2025, $45.5 million of funding closed with the simultaneous settlement of seller obligations and retirement of senior debt: EON and its affiliates successfully closed on total funding of $45.5 million through a combination of volumetric funding instruments ("VMA") and a farmout of the San Andres formation rights across the leasehold in the Grayburg-Jackson Field ("GJF") owned and operated by LH Operating, LLC ("LHO"), the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, for horizontal well development to a subsidiary of Virtus Energy Partners, LLC ("Virtus").

Sources and Uses of the $45.5 million funding :

• $20.0 million was received from a private family office in consideration for the sale by the LHO of a 15% perpetual overriding royalty interest ("ORRI") in existing leases and wells in the GJF.

• $20.5 million came from the private family office for the sale by LHO of a 5% perpetual ORRI in production from the San Andres formation in horizontal wells to be drilled under the farmout program by Virtus.

• $5.0 million was received from Virtus in consideration for a farmout of the LHO's rights in new horizontal wells to be drilled in the San Andres formation in which Virtus will own a 65% operated working interest subject to earning and retention conditions through drilling commitments. LHO will retain a 35% non-operated working interest in such wells.

• EON paid $20.5 million as cash consideration to the seller of the GJF whereby (i) LHO purchased a 10% overriding royalty interest seller had retained in the GJF valued at $13.5 million, (ii) EON retired the $20 million seller note ($15 million principal balance plus accrued interest) for $7.0 million, and (iii) EON issued 1.5 million shares of Class A common stock in exchange for the return to treasury of the preferred units owed by seller with a redemption value of $27 million.

• Retired senior debt of EON of approximately $19.3 million. The payoff of the senior debt eliminated a $700,000 per month amortization payment (principal and interest) and released all oil and gas properties of LHO as collateral for such debt.

"With the completion of the $45 million funding, we have now positioned the Company for expansion and growth ridding ourselves of a weak balance sheet," said Dante Caravaggio, CEO of EON Resources, Inc. "The Company, through LHO, entered into drilling and production agreements that will spur our growth and support profitability over the coming years."

The Company entered into a Farmout Agreement ("Farmout") with Virtus on September 9, 2025: Under the Farmout, Virtus acquired the right to develop LHO's San Andres formation within the Grayburg Jackson Field under certain conditions and horizontal drilling commitments. Important Farmout provisions follow:

• Virtus paid LHO $5.0 million for the acquisition of a 65% working interest in the leasehold rights in the San Andres formation developed through horizontal drilling. LHO retains a 35% non-operated working interest in the horizontal wells to be drilled by Virtus in the San Andres formation . LHO retains its 100% operated working interest in existing vertical wells and in the remaining formations under lease.

• As many as 90 horizontal wells are expected to be drilled at a cost between $3.5 million to $4.0 million per well. Cumulative capital investment by Virtus and LHO is expected to exceed $300 million over the life of the project.

• The annual horizontal drilling program is expected to range from 10 to 20 new horizontal wells per year with initial production rates of 300 to 500 barrels of oil per day ("BOPD").

• Over the life of the horizontal drilling program, gross oil production is expected to exceed 20,000 BOPD with 35%, or 7,000 BOPD from the San Andres formation, net to LHO's 35% working interest.

• The first three wells are anticipated to be completed by mid-year 2026. The costs associated with the drilling and completion of the first three wells are solely the responsibility of Virtus. LHO retains a 35% working interest in these first three wells.

• The Economic Summary Projection of the anticipated development plan prepared by Virtus estimates more than ninety-five million dollars of reserve value based on net present value discounted at ten percent ("NPV-10") net to LHO's retained ownership interest.

More information on the funding and farmout can be found in the $45.5 million funding press release, the Farmout press release, and the letter to EON shareholders, which are all located on the Company's website.

Operational accomplishments during the third quarter:

• Grayburg-Jackson Field had stabilized production and maintained lease operating expenses at reduced levels that have been maintained across 2025.

• By the end of the quarter, over 2 miles of water injector flowlines had been installed on the GJF. Testing and fine-tuning are being performed as needed where the flowlines are expected to be completed in Q4.

• The South Justis Field results started after acquisition by LHO at end of the second quarter, and thus the third quarter reflects the first full quarter of results for SJF.
