This increase is expected despite the second quarter production forecast being revised lower due to: • expected elective shut-in of volumes due to weak Waha pricing of ~8,000 BOE per day (20% oil), and • expected scheduled maintenance on third-party treatment plants of ~2,000 BOE per day (60% oil), including maintenance originally expected in the first quarter but deferred until the second quarter as noted above.

Second Quarter 2026 Estimated Capital Expenditures Matador expects D/C/E and midstream CapEx for the second quarter of 2026 will be approximately $430 to $460 million. Total expected CapEx of $858 to $888 million for the first half of 2026 is consistent with our expectations of 55 to 60% in the first half of 2026 due to an increased numbe
