Exhibit 99.1 · the passage around this item
… earlier in the release
In addition, Matador’s operations team continues to reduce drilling and completion times, which has allowed Matador to advance completion operations for 11 wells on its Firethorn and Pimento acreage that was acquired in the Ameredev acquisition into the fourth quarter of 2024, as opposed to completing most of these wells in the first quarter of 2025. Accelerating these completions should allow Matador to make more capital-efficient use of its stimulation crews that will enable Matador to turn to sales these additional wells in January 2025, which is two to three months earlier than previously expected. In addition, Matador optimized its drill schedule during 2024 and now expects to turn to sales 101.9 net operated wells for full-year 2024 as compared to its prior expectation of 97.9 net operated wells turned to sales during full-year 2024. As a result of accelerating the completion of the 11 additional wells and the 4.0 additional net operated wells expected to be turned to sales in 2024, Matador increased its full-year 2024 capital expenditure guidance range by $50 million as set forth in the table below.
