| Disclaimer 2 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This investor presentation contains forward-looking statements regarding future events and future results that are subject to the safe harbors created under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this presentation regarding dividend plans and practices, financial position, operating and financial performance, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for future operations, industry conditions, and indebtedness covenant compliance are forward-looking statements. When used in this presentation, forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by terms or phrases such as “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “target,” “could,” “plan,” “intend,” “seek,” “goal,” “will,” “should,” “may” or other words and similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Items contemplating or making assumptions about actual or potential future production and sales, market size, collaborations, and trends or operating results also constitute such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond Granite Ridge’s control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following: the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, Granite Ridge’s financial performance following the business combination, changes in Granite Ridge’s strategy, future operations, financial position, hedging positions, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs and cash flows, prospects and plans, changes in current or future commodity prices and interest rates, supply chain disruptions, infrastructure constraints and related factors affecting our properties, ability to acquire additional development opportunities or make acquisitions, changes in reserves estimates or the value thereof, operational risks including, but not limited to, the pace of drilling and completions activity on our properties, changes in the markets in which Granite Ridge competes, geopolitical risk and changes in applicable laws, legislation, or regulations, including those relating to environmental matters, cyber-related risks, the fact that reserve estimates depend on many assumptions that may turn out to be inaccurate and that any material inaccuracies in reserve estimates or underlying assumptions will materially affect the quantities and present value of the Granite Ridge’s reserves, the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings, legal and contractual limitations on the payment of dividends, limited liquidity and trading of Granite Ridge’s securities, acts of war or terrorism and market conditions and global, regulatory, technical, and economic factors beyond Granite Ridge’s control, including the potential adverse effects of the COVID 19 pandemic, or another major disease, affecting capital markets, general economic conditions, global supply chains and Granite Ridge’s business and operations, and increasing regulatory and investor emphasis on environmental, social and governance matters. Granite Ridge has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations and assumptions about future events. While management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond Granite Ridge’s control. Granite Ridge does not undertake any duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as may be required by the federal securities laws. |
| Disclaimer 3 INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA The information, data and statistics contained herein are derived from various internal and external third-party sources. While Granite Ridge believes such third-party information is reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of the indicated information. Granite Ridge has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by third-party sources. No representation is made by Granite Ridge’s management as to the reasonableness of the assumptions made within or the accuracy or completeness of any projections or modeling or any other information contained herein. Any information, data or statistics on past performance or modeling contained herein is not an indication as to future performance. Granite Ridge assumes no obligation to update the information in this presentation. SEC FILINGS Granite Ridge has filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-268478), including a prospectus, with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for the offering to which this presentation relates. Before you invest in Granite Ridge's securities, you should carefully read the prospectus in that registration statement, the prospectus supplement and the other documents that Granite Ridge has filed with the SEC for more complete information about Granite Ridge and the offering. You may access these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov. Alternatively, copies of the prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus may be obtained from BofA Securities, Inc., Attention: Prospectus Department, NC1-022-02-25, 201 North Tryon Street, Charlotte, NC 28255, by telephone: (800) 294-1322, or by email at [email protected]; or from Evercore Group L.L.C., Attention: Equity Capital Markets, 55 East 52nd Street, 35th Floor, New York, NY 10055, by telephone: (888) 474-0200, or by email: [email protected]. This presentation is not a prospectus and is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. NON-GAAP MEASURES In addition to U.S. GAAP financials, this presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including but not limited to Adjusted EBITDAX, Net Debt, Inventory Acquisition and PV-10. These non-GAAP measures are in addition to, not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures is contained in the Appendix to this presentation. RESERVE INFORMATION Reserve engineering is a process of estimating underground accumulations of hydrocarbons that cannot be measured in an exact way. The accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data, the interpretation of such data, and price and cost assumptions made by reserve engineers. In addition, the results of drilling testing and production activities may justify revisions of estimates that were made previously. If significant, such revisions could impact Granite Ridge’s strategy and change the schedule of any further production and development drilling. Accordingly, reserve estimates may differ significantly from the quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered. Estimated Ultimate Recoveries, or “EURs,” refer to estimates of the sum of total gross remaining proved reserves per well as of a given date and cumulative production prior to such given date for developed wells. These quantities do not necessarily constitute or represent reserves as defined by the SEC and are not intended to be representative of all anticipated future well results. This presentation contains volumes and PV-10 values of our proved reserves and unproved reserves. The SEC strictly prohibits companies from aggregating proved, probable and possible reserves in filings with the SEC due to the different levels of certainty associated with each reserve category. The SEC also prohibits companies from including resources that are not proved, probable or possible reserves in filings with the SEC. Investors should be cautioned that estimates of volumes and PV-10 values of resources other than proved reserves are inherently more uncertain than comparable measures for proved reserves. Further, because estimated proved reserves and unproved resources have not been adjusted for risk due to this uncertainty of recovery, their summation may be of limited use. |
| Total Shareholder Returns • Capital returns • Fixed dividend – annualized $0.44/share 2 • Stock buybacks – $50MM repurchase plan • Responsible Growth • Active operators – ~13% production growth 3 • Highly scalable – cost structure largely fixed; growth has minimal impact on overhead • Not “flooding the market” – increase in GRNT production does not necessarily grow U.S. production, just our share of it Conservative Balance Sheet • Conservative leverage – 0.13x net debt to TTM Adjusted EBITDAX at 6/30/2023 1 • Control of capital – elect to participate in drilling on a well-by-well basis • Limited liabilities – not burdened by long-term contracts and drilling obligations common to operators • Prepared for volatility – not forced to hedge at low prices, allows for counter-cyclical investment opportunities Non-Op – A Better Way to Invest in Oil & Gas • Decreased risk – participate with a smaller piece of a larger number of wells • Asset diversity – own an interest in over 2,500 gross wells across Permian, Eagle Ford, Haynesville, DJ and Bakken • Accelerated development – high-quality near-term drilling rather than long-dated inventory Access to Private Operators • Broaden exposure – significant high-quality inventory is in the hands of private operators, particularly in the Permian • Blue chip partners – anticipate 2023 new wells turned to sales from private operators including Endeavor, Greenlake, Henry Resources, Mewbourne, Rosewood and Mitsui Key Investment Highlights 4 Granite Ridge seeks to tighten the band of outcomes in oil & gas investing through high diversification, low leverage and disciplined investment underwriting 1 2 3 4 1.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements regarding future events and future results that are subject to the safe harbors created under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this release are forward-looking statements. When used in this release, forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by terms or phrases such as “estimate,” “project,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “target,” “could,” “plan,” “intend,” “seek,” “goal,” “will,” “should,” “may” or other words and similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Items contemplating or making assumptions about actual or potential future production and sales, market size, collaborations, and trends or operating results also constitute such forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond Granite Ridge’s control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following: changes in Granite Ridge’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans, changes in current or future commodity prices and interest rates, supply chain disruptions, infrastructure constraints and related factors affecting our properties, ability to acquire additional development opportunities or make acquisitions, changes in reserves estimates or the value thereof, operational risks including, but not limited to, the pace of drilling and completions activity on our properties, changes in the markets in which Granite Ridge competes, geopolitical risk and changes in applicable laws, legislation, or regulations, including those relating to environmental matters, cyber-related risks, the fact that reserve estimates depend on many assumptions that may turn out to be inaccurate and that any material inaccuracies in reserve estimates or underlying assumptions will materially affect the quantities and present value of the Granite Ridge’s reserves, the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings, legal and contractual limitations on the payment of dividends, limited liquidity and trading of Granite Ridge’s securities, acts of war or terrorism and market conditions and global, regulatory, technical, and economic factors beyond Granite Ridge’s control, including the potential adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, or another major disease, affecting capital markets, general economic conditions, global supply chains and Granite Ridge’s business and operations, and increasing regulatory and investor emphasis on environmental, social and governance matters.
Granite Ridge has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations and assumptions about future events. While management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks, contingencies and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond Granite Ridge’s control. Granite Ridge does not undertake any duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as may be required by the federal securities laws.
