******
Based on forecasts used in our reserve report and Ridgemar’s reserve report, our proved developed producing (“PDP”) reserves as of December 31, 2024 have estimated average five-year and ten-year annual decline rates of approximately 17% and approximately 13%, respectively, and an estimated 2025 PDP decline rate of approximately 26%.
******
Our portfolio of assets:
during the year ended December 31, 2024, generated $137.7 million of net loss, $1,223.1 million of net cash provided by operating activities, $1,598.3 million of Adjusted EBITDAX and $630.2 million of Levered Free Cash Flow (or $164.7 million of net income, $2,385.3 million of Adjusted EBITDAX and $659.2 million of Levered Free Cash Flow, after giving effect to the Ridgemar Acquisition and the series of transactions pursuant to which the Company acquired SilverBow Resources, Inc.).
******
While many of our peers have historically outspent their cash flows, we have averaged a reinvestment rate, which we define as our historical capital expenditures (excluding acquisitions) over a specified period as a percentage of our historical Adjusted EBITDAX for such period, of approximately 42% of Adjusted EBITDAX since 2020.

__________________
(1)Our reserves and the pre-tax undiscounted present value of such reserves discounted at ten percent (“PV-10”) were determined by calculating the unweighted arithmetic average first date of the month prices for the prior 12 months, as adjusted by lease for quality, transportation fees, geographical differentials, marketing bonuses or deductions and other factors affecting the price received at the wellhead (“SEC Pricing”). For oil and natural gas liquids (“NGL”) volumes, the average West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) posted price of $75.48 per barrel as of December 31, 2024, was adjusted for items such as gravity, quality, local conditions, gathering, transportation fees and distance from market. For natural gas volumes, the average Henry Hub Index spot price of $2.13 per MMBtu as of December 31, 2024, was similarly adjusted for items such as quality, local conditions, gathering, transportation fees and distance from market. All prices are held constant throughout the lives of the properties. The average adjusted product prices over the remaining lives of the properties are $72.69 per barrel of oil, $1.74 per Mcf of natural gas and $23.81 per barrel of NGLs.
(2)Ridgemar’s reserves and PV-10 were determined using SEC pricing. The 12-month 2024 average adjusted prices after differentials were $1.84 per Mcf of natural gas, $76.70 per barrel of oil, and $19.36 per barrel of NGL.
(3)Reflects the net proved and net proved developed present values reflected in our and Ridgemar’s respective proved reserve estimates as of December 31, 2024. PV-10 is not a financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) because it does not include the effects of income taxes on future revenues.
(4)Our New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”) reserves and PV-10 were determined using index prices for oil and natural gas, respectively, without giving effect to derivative transactions and were calculated based on settlement prices to better reflect the market expectations as of that date, as adjusted for our estimates of quality, transportation fees, and market differentials. The NYMEX reserves
3


calculations are based on NYMEX futures pricing at closing on May 31, 2025 for oil and natural gas. The average adjusted product prices over the remaining lives of the properties are $57.68 per barrel of oil, $3.21 per Mcf of natural gas and $18.78 per barrel of NGLs as of May 31, 2025 for the Company. We believe that the use of forward prices provides investors with additional useful information about our reserves, as the forward prices are based on the market’s forward-looking expectations of oil and natural gas prices as of a certain date, although we caution investors that this information should be viewed as a helpful alternative, not a substitute, for the data presented based on SEC pricing.
(5)Ridgemar’s reserves, the pre-tax undiscounted present value of such reserves (“PV-0”) and PV-10 were determined using NYMEX pricing, without giving effect to derivative transactions and were calculated based on settlement prices to better reflect the market expectations as of that date, as adjusted for estimates of quality, transportation fees and market differentials. The NYMEX reserves calculations are based on NYMEX futures pricing at closing on May 31, 2025 for oil and natural gas. The average adjusted product prices over the remaining lives of the properties are $60.83 per barrel of oil, $3.52 per Mcf of natural gas and $14.50 per barrel of NGLs as of May 31, 2025 for Ridgemar. We believe that the use of forward prices provides investors with additional useful information about reserves estimates, as the forward prices are based on the market’s forward-looking expectations of oil and natural gas prices as of a certain date, although we caution investors that this information should be viewed as a helpful alternative, not as a substitute, for the data presented based on SEC pricing.
(6)Includes working interest properties located in Mid-Con, Barnett, California and Permian as well as diversified minerals.
******
For example, our current mineral acreage provides operational benefits, generating $64.7 million of revenues less direct operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024.
******
As of December 31, 2024 and including the net drilling locations gained through the Ridgemar Acquisition, we have identified 481 net locations as proved undeveloped drilling locations.
******
As of May 31, 2025, our derivative portfolio had an aggregate notional value of approximately $2.8 billion. We determine the fair value of our oil and natural gas commodity derivatives using valuation techniques that utilize market quotes and pricing analysis. Inputs include publicly available prices and forward price curves generated from a compilation of data gathered from third parties.

Summary reserve data based on NYMEX pricing
The following table provides our and Ridgemar’s historical reserves, PV-0 and PV-10 as of December 31, 2024 using NYMEX pricing, individually and on a combined basis. We have included this reserve sensitivity in order to provide an additional method of presentation of the fair value of the assets and the cash flows that are expected to be generated from those assets based on the market’s forward-looking pricing expectations as of May 31, 2025. SEC pricing does not reflect the oil and natural gas futures. We believe that the use of forward prices provides investors with additional useful information about our reserves, as the forward prices are based on the market’s forward-
5


looking expectations of oil and natural gas prices as of a certain date, although we caution investors that this information should be viewed as a helpful alternative, not a substitute, for the data presented based on SEC pricing. In addition, we believe strip pricing provides relevant and useful information because it is widely used by investors in our industry as a basis for comparing the relative size and value of proved reserves to our peers and in particular addresses the impact of differentials compared with our peers. Our and Ridgemar’s respective estimated historical reserves, PV-0 and PV-10 based on NYMEX pricing, were otherwise prepared on the same basis as our and Ridgemar’s respective estimations based on SEC pricing reserves for the comparable period. Reserve estimates using NYMEX pricing are calculated using the internal systems of our management and have not been prepared or audited by an independent, third-party reserve engineer, but otherwise contain the same parameters, except for price and minor system differences.

(3)Combined reserve data generally represents the arithmetic sum of the proved reserves, the standardized measure, PV-0 and PV-10 attributable to the Company and Ridgemar. The proved reserves of Ridgemar are based on its development plans and its reserve engineers’ reserve estimation methodologies. Because we will develop such proved reserves in accordance with our own development plan and, in the future, will estimate proved reserves in accordance with our own methodologies, the estimates presented herein for Ridgemar may not be

representative of our future reserve estimates with respect to these properties or the reserve estimates we would have reported if we had owned such properties as of December 31, 2024.
(4)Present value (discounted at PV-0 and PV-10) is not a financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP because it does not include the effects of income taxes on future net revenues. Neither PV-0 nor PV-10 represent an estimate of the fair market value of our oil and natural gas properties. Our PV-0 measurement does not provide a discount rate to estimated future cash flows. PV-0 therefore does not reflect the risk associated with future cash flow projections like PV-10 does. PV-0 should therefore only be evaluated in connection with an evaluation of our PV-10 of discounted future net cash flows. We believe that the presentation of PV-0 and PV-10 is relevant and useful to our investors about the future net cash flows of our reserves in the absence of a comparable measure such as standardized measure. We and others in our industry use PV-0 and PV-10 as a measure to compare the relative size and value of proved reserves held by companies without regard to the specific tax characteristics of such entities. Investors should be cautioned that neither of PV-0 and PV-10 represent an estimate of the fair market value of our proved reserves. GAAP does not prescribe any corresponding measure for PV-10 of reserves based on pricing other than SEC pricing. As a result, it is not practicable for us to reconcile our PV-10 using NYMEX pricing to standardized measure as determined in accordance with GAAP.

(1)    As of the date of the Offer to Purchase.
(2)    Holders will also receive accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment with respect to the Notes accepted for purchase to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date (if any) or the Final Settlement Date, as applicable.
(3)    Includes the Early Tender Premium.
Holders of Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 7, 2025 (such date and time, as it may be extended, the “Early Tender Date”) and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will receive the Total Consideration set forth in the table above (the “Total Consideration”), which includes the Early Tender Premium set forth in the table above (the “Early Tender Premium”). Holders of Notes tendering their Notes after the Early Tender Date will only be eligible to receive the Tender Offer Consideration set forth in the table above (the “Tender Offer Consideration”), which is the Total Consideration less the Early Tender Premium.
CE Finance reserves the right, but is under no obligation, at any point following the Early Tender Date and before the Expiration Date, to accept for purchase any Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date (the “Early Settlement Date”). The Early Settlement Date will be determined at CE Finance’s option, subject to all conditions to the Tender Offer having been satisfied or waived by CE Finance, and assuming CE Finance accepts for purchase Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer. If CE Finance exercises its option to have an Early Settlement Date, it expects to make payment for any Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date and purchased in the Tender Offer no later than July 9, 2025, which is the second business day following the Early Tender Date. However, the Early Settlement Date may be any business day following the Early Tender Date and before the Expiration Date, at CE Finance’s option. If CE Finance does not exercise its option to have an Early Settlement Date, payment for any Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date and purchased in the Tender Offer will be made on the settlement date that is expected to be the second business day following the Expiration Date, or as promptly as practicable thereafter (the “Final Settlement Date”). Irrespective of whether CE Finance chooses to exercise its option to have an Early Settlement Date, payment for any Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date, but at or prior to the Expiration Date, and purchased in the Tender Offer will be made on the Final Settlement Date.



Acceptance for tenders of the Notes may be subject to proration if the aggregate principal amount of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn is greater than the Maximum Tender Amount. Furthermore, if the Tender Offer for the Notes is fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Date, holders who validly tender Notes after the Early Tender Date will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase.
CE Finance reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase the Maximum Tender Amount at any time, subject to compliance with applicable law, which could result in CE Finance purchasing a greater aggregate principal amount of Notes in the Tender Offer. There can be no assurance that CE Finance will increase the Maximum Tender Amount. If CE Finance increases the Maximum Tender Amount, it does not expect to extend the Withdrawal Date, subject to applicable law. Accordingly, Holders should not tender Notes that they do not wish to have purchased in the Tender Offer.
The Tender Offer is conditioned upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the completion of a contemporaneous notes offering (the “Notes Offering”) by CE Finance on terms and conditions satisfactory to CE Finance and Crescent. The Tender Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum amount of Notes being tendered. The Tender Offer may be amended, extended, terminated or withdrawn.
Tendered Notes may be withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 7, 2025, unless extended by CE Finance (such date and time, as it may be extended, the “Withdrawal Date”). The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 22, 2025 unless extended or earlier terminated (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the “Expiration Time”). No tenders submitted after the Expiration Time will be valid.
CE Finance has retained BofA Securities to serve as the exclusive Dealer Manager for the Tender Offer. Questions regarding the terms of the Tender Offer may be directed to BofA Securities at +1 (888) 292-0070 (toll-free), +1 (646) 743-2120 (collect) or [email protected].

In addition, this press release is not an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities issued in connection with any contemporaneous Notes Offering, nor shall there be any sale of the securities issued in such offering in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

Exhibit 99.3
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
On January 31, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Crescent Energy Company (“Crescent”) completed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding securities of Ridgemar (Eagle Ford) LLC (“Ridgemar EF” and such transaction, the “Ridgemar Acquisition”) pursuant to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated December 3, 2024, by and among Crescent Energy Finance LLC (the “Purchaser”), Crescent, Ridgemar Energy Operating, LLC (the “Seller”) and Ridgemar EF.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Seller received aggregate consideration, before customary purchase price adjustments, consisting of (i) $830.0 million in cash (the “Cash Consideration”), and (ii) 5,454,546 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) of Crescent (the “Stock Consideration). Up to $170.0 million in earn-out consideration (the “Contingent Consideration”) may also be paid by Crescent quarterly in fiscal years 2026 and 2027 based on the quarterly NYMEX WTI price of crude oil in fiscal years 2026 and 2027, subject to customary purchase price adjustments set forth in the Purchase Agreement.
The assets and liabilities of Ridgemar EF represent substantially all of the key operating assets of Ridgemar Energy Management, LLC (“Ridgemar”). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations (the “pro forma statements of operations”) have been prepared from the respective historical consolidated statements of operations of Crescent and Ridgemar, adjusted to give effect to the Ridgemar Acquisition and the SilverBow Merger as if each had occurred on January 1, 2024. The pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 contains certain reclassification adjustments to conform Ridgemar's historical financial statement presentation with Crescent’s historical financial statement presentation.
The following pro forma statements of operations are based on, and should be read in conjunction with:
the historical audited consolidated financial statements of Crescent for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Crescent as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and the related notes thereto;
the historical audited consolidated financial statements of Ridgemar for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes thereto;
the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 included as Exhibit 99.1 in Crescent's Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 2, 2025; and
the “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations” and the “Risk factors” and other cautionary statements included in Crescent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The pro forma statements of operations were derived by making certain transaction accounting adjustments to the historical statements of operations noted above. The adjustments are based on currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions. Therefore, the actual impact of the Ridgemar Acquisition may differ from the adjustments made to the pro forma statements of operations. However, management believes that the assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects for the period presented as if the Ridgemar Acquisition had been consummated earlier, and that all adjustments necessary to fairly present the pro forma statements of operations have been made.
The pro forma statements of operations and related notes are presented for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as an indication of the operating results that Crescent would have achieved if the Purchase Agreement had been entered into and the Ridgemar Acquisition had taken place on the assumed date. The pro forma statements of operations do not reflect future events that may occur after the consummation of the Ridgemar Acquisition, including, but not limited to, the anticipated realization of ongoing savings from potential operating efficiencies, asset dispositions, cost savings, or economies of scale that Crescent may achieve with respect to the combined operations. As a result, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the pro forma statements of operations and should not be relied on as an indication of the future results of Crescent.

NOTE 5 – Supplemental unaudited pro forma oil and natural gas reserves information
Oil and natural gas reserves
The following tables present the estimated unaudited pro forma net proved developed and undeveloped oil, natural gas, and NGL reserve information as of December 31, 2024 for Crescent's consolidated operations, along with a summary of changes in quantities of net remaining proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2024. Crescent's equity affiliates had no proved oil, natural gas, and NGL reserves as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. The disclosures below are derived from “Oil and natural gas reserves” for the year ended December 31, 2024 reported in Crescent’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 2, 2025 and Ridgemar’s annual financial statements included within Crescent’s Current Report on Form 8-K/A dated April 11, 2025. The estimates below are in certain instances presented on a “barrels of oil equivalent or “Boe” basis. To determine Boe in the following tables, natural gas is converted to a crude oil equivalent at the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil equivalent.
The unaudited pro forma oil and natural gas reserve information is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Ridgemar Acquisition been completed on January 1, 2024 and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” included in Crescent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.



The unaudited pro forma net proved developed and undeveloped oil, natural gas, and NGL reserves as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the changes in the pro forma quantities of net remaining proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2024 are as follows:

Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows
The following table presents the estimated unaudited pro forma standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows (the “pro forma standardized measure”) at December 31, 2024. The pro forma standardized measure information set forth below gives effect to the Ridgemar Acquisition as if they had been completed on January 1, 2024. The Ridgemar Acquisition Adjustments reflect adjustments related to the tax effects resulting from the Ridgemar Acquisition. The disclosures below are derived from the “Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows” for the year ended December 31, 2024 reported in Crescent’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 2, 2025 and Ridgemar’s annual financial statements included within Crescent’s Current Report on Form 8-K/A dated April 11, 2025. An explanation of the underlying methodology applied, as required by SEC regulations, can be



found within the historical financial statements included in Crescent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The calculations assume the continuation of existing economic, operating and contractual conditions at December 31, 2024.
The pro forma standardized measure is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Ridgemar Acquisition been completed on January 1, 2024 and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” included in Crescent’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K.
The pro forma standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2024 is as follows:
