KOSMOS ENERGY ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2025 RESULTS

 

DALLAS - August 4, 2025-- Kosmos Energy Ltd. ("Kosmos" or the "Company")
(NYSE/LSE: KOS) announced today its financial and operating results for
the second quarter of 2025. For the quarter, the Company generated a net loss
of $88 million, or $0.18 per diluted share. When adjusted for certain
items that impact the comparability of results, the Company generated
an adjusted net loss((1)) of $93 million, or $0.19 per diluted share for
the second quarter of 2025.

 

SECOND QUARTER 2025 HIGHLIGHTS

 

•     Net Production((2)): ~63,500 barrels of oil equivalent per day
(boepd), with sales of ~73,200 boepd

 

•     Revenues: $393 million, or $58.93 per boe (excluding the impact of
derivative cash settlements)

 

•     Production expense: $243 million ($28.22 per boe excluding $69.1
million of production expenses associated with the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim
(GTA) liquefied natural gas (LNG) project

 

•     Capital expenditures: $86 million, with full year capital
expenditure guidance revised down to ~$350 million (from $400 million)

 

•     Cash flow from operations of $127 million with free cash
flow((1)) of  $45 million

 

•     "Commercial Operations Date" (COD) was successfully achieved on
the Gimi floating LNG (FLNG) vessel at GTA, another key milestone for the
project

 

•     During the second quarter 3.5 gross LNG cargos were lifted from
the GTA project offshore Mauritania and Senegal

 

•     Drilled and completed the first of two planned producer wells at
Jubilee in 2025, with ~10,000 bopd gross initial production

 

•     Post quarter end, indicative terms agreed for Gulf of America term
loan up to $250 million to re-pay 2026 maturities

 

 

Commenting on the Company's second quarter 2025 performance, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer Andrew G. Inglis said: "We set out this year with
three clear priorities: Increase production, reduce costs and enhance the
resilience of the balance sheet. During the period we have continued to make
good progress across all three areas. On production, the GTA ramp up has gone
well, achieving FLNG "Commercial Operations Date" in the second quarter, and
6.5 gross LNG cargos lifted year-to-date. We are approaching Kosmos' record
high production levels with further near-term growth expected as we push GTA
towards the FLNG's 2.7 mtpa nameplate capacity and bring on more wells at
Jubilee and Winterfell.

 

On costs, we have lowered our capital budget for the year from $400 million to
around $350 million and are working hard to reduce operating costs across the
portfolio, namely on GTA through the FPSO re-financing and through exploring
lower-cost operating models with our partners. We also remain on track to
deliver the targeted $25 million of overhead reduction by year-end.

 

On the balance sheet, we are enhancing resilience through increasing liquidity
and additional hedges for 2026 with further progress expected as we pursue
additional initiatives through the second half of the year. With production
rising, costs falling and balance sheet resilience improving, we look forward
to delivering long-term value for our shareholders through the second half of
the year and beyond."

 

FINANCIAL UPDATE

 

Net capital expenditure for the second quarter of 2025 was $86 million, below
guidance primarily due to lower spend in Mauritania and Senegal and in the
Gulf of America. In line with the Company's focus on reducing costs, full year
capital expenditure is now expected to be around $350 million (from $400
million previously).  We also remain on track to deliver the targeted $25
million overhead reduction by year-end.

 

Operating costs per barrel of oil equivalent in the second quarter were
slightly higher than guidance, reflecting lower production than expected, and
were higher quarter-on-quarter due to Kosmos' one scheduled TEN lifting in
Ghana for 2025, which occurred in the second quarter.

 

The Company generated net cash provided by operating activities of
approximately $127 million and free cash flow((1)) of approximately $45
million.

 

Kosmos exited the second quarter of 2025 with approximately $2.85 billion of
net debt(1) and available liquidity of approximately $400 million.

 

During the second quarter and into the third quarter, Kosmos continued to take
advantage of periods of higher oil prices, adding more hedges as part of our
rolling hedging program to provide downside protection against a volatile
sector backdrop. The company now has 5 million barrels of remaining 2025 oil
production hedged with a floor of approximately $62/barrel and a ceiling of
approximately $77/barrel. Kosmos has also commenced hedging next year's oil
production with 7 million barrels hedged for 2026 so far with a floor of
approximately $66/barrel and a ceiling of approximately $75/barrel, targeting
around 50% of 2026 oil production to be hedged by year-end.

 

The Company successfully amended the debt cover ratio calculation for the
Reserve-Based Lending (RBL) Facility, to increase the ratio for the next two
scheduled financial test dates, reflecting the impact of start-up timing of
the GTA project on the leverage calculation. The debt cover ratio will return
to the originally agreed upon level of 3.5x for testing dates thereafter, when
full year revenues from the GTA project are aligned with operating expenses.

 

In early August, Kosmos agreed to indicative terms for a senior secured term
loan facility ("Term Facility") with an investment grade counterparty for up
to $250 million, to be used for general corporate purposes, including the
repayment of the Company's outstanding 2026 unsecured notes. The Term Facility
is expected to be secured against Kosmos' assets in the Gulf of America with a
final maturity date four years after closing. Closing is anticipated by the
end of the third quarter of 2025, subject to certain conditions including the
negotiation and execution of fully-termed definitive loan documentation and
certain crude oil marketing and offtake agreements.

 

OPERATIONAL UPDATE

 

Production

 

Total net production((2)) in the second quarter of 2025 averaged approximately
63,500 boepd, lower than guidance due to the previously communicated ramp up
timing on GTA and lower production at Jubilee. Full year 2025 production
guidance for GTA is around 20 gross LNG cargos with production expected to
increase towards the FLNG vessel's 2.7 million tonnes per annum (mtpa)
nameplate capacity in the fourth quarter. Reflecting the slower GTA ramp up
and lower Jubilee production in the second quarter, full year production
guidance is now expected to be between 65,000 - 70,000 boepd.

 

The Company exited the quarter in a net underlift position of approximately
0.3 mmboe.

 

Mauritania and Senegal

 

On GTA, the FLNG vessel successfully achieved COD in June, a significant
milestone for the project, with production volumes now at a level equivalent
to the annual contracted volumes of approximately 2.45 mtpa. With COD
achieved, Kosmos has concluded funding a share of GTA's capital expenditure on
behalf of the national oil companies of Mauritania and Senegal.

 

Production in the second quarter averaged approximately 7,100 boepd net.
During the quarter 3.5 gross LNG cargos were lifted with an additional 2.5
gross LNG cargos lifted post quarter end.

 

The partnership continues to target lower operating costs for GTA Phase 1
through startup and commissioning cost reductions, the FPSO re-financing
(targeted for completion in the second half of 2025), and also through
exploring alternative lower-cost operating models.

 

With GTA Phase 1 fully operational, we are targeting an increase in production
towards the FLNG vessel's 2.7 mtpa nameplate capacity in the fourth quarter.
The partnership is also focusing on future expansion phases of the field.
Phase 1+, a low-cost brownfield expansion, is expected to double gas
throughput by leveraging the existing infrastructure in place. With the
subsurface in Phase 1 performing well, we expect future expansion phases to
further reduce operating costs/boe.

 

Ghana

 

Production in Ghana averaged approximately 29,100 boepd net in the second
quarter of 2025. Kosmos lifted 3 cargos from Ghana during the quarter.

 

At Jubilee (38.6% working interest), oil production in the second quarter
averaged approximately 55,300 bopd gross, reflecting nine days of scheduled
FPSO shutdown, a period of riser instability, which has since been addressed
with riser base gas lift, and underperformance of certain wells in the eastern
side of the field, including Jubilee Southeast. Facility uptime was 97% with
voidage replacement around 104%.

 

The Noble Venturer rig successfully drilled and completed the first well of
the 2025/26 drilling campaign. This Jubilee main field producer (J-72)
encountered more pay than expected and is currently producing around 10,000
bopd gross. The 2025 rig program has been optimized to drill a second producer
in the Jubilee main field. As a result the rig will now undergo a period of
scheduled maintenance before drilling the second well, which is expected
online around the end of the year. Following completion of the second well,
the rig is scheduled to drill four additional wells on Jubilee in 2026,
targeting well-defined Jubilee main field producers, supported by good
adjacent well control, similar to J-72.

 

As previously communicated, to achieve the full production potential of the
Jubilee field, a consistent drilling program is required, informed by the
latest seismic technology, alongside high facility uptime and sustained water
injection. The narrow-azimuth (NAZ) seismic acquired in the first quarter is
now being processed and the fast-track results show a significant uplift in
imaging quality. We expect the imaging quality to be further enhanced through
the acquisition of ocean bottom node (OBN) seismic, which is planned for later
this year. The OBN data is expected to upgrade the velocity model to further
improve the NAZ processing. These enhanced seismic products are expected to
benefit future drilling campaigns, identifying undrilled lobes, unswept oil,
and new opportunities in Jubilee Southeast.

 

During the second quarter, Kosmos and partners signed a Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Ghana to extend the production
licenses to 2040. The partnership anticipates submitting the documentation to
the government shortly with formal approval expected later in the year. On
completion, Kosmos expects a material uplift in 2P reserves in Ghana.

 

In the second quarter of 2025, Jubilee gas production net to Kosmos was
approximately 5,700 boepd.

 

At TEN (20.4% working interest), oil production averaged approximately 15,900
bopd gross for the second quarter.

 

Gulf of America

 

Production in the Gulf of America averaged approximately 19,600 boepd net
(~84% oil) during the second quarter, at the upper end of guidance. The
Winterfell-4 well was successfully drilled with completion work ongoing and is
expected online later in the third quarter of 2025.

 

On Tiberius, Kosmos (operator, 50% working interest) continues to progress the
development plan with our partner Oxy (50% working interest), evaluating
opportunities to improve the development through lower capital costs. Final
investment decision is targeted for 2026.

 

On Gettysburg, a discovered resource opportunity acquired in a previous lease
sale, Kosmos (25% working interest) has partnered with Shell (operator, 75%
working interest), to plan and progress a low-cost, single well tie-back
development to Shell's operated-Appomattox facility.

 

Equatorial Guinea

 

Production in Equatorial Guinea averaged approximately 22,000 bopd gross and
7,700 bopd net in the second quarter. Kosmos lifted one cargo from Equatorial
Guinea during the quarter. Second quarter production was impacted by subsea
pump mechanical failures. The operator expects the first replacement pump to
be installed in the fourth quarter with production expected to rise
thereafter.

 

(1) A Non-GAAP measure, see attached reconciliation of non-GAAP measure.

(2) Production means net entitlement volumes. In Ghana, Equatorial Guinea, and
Mauritania and Senegal this means those volumes net to Kosmos' working
interest or participating interest and net of royalty or production sharing
contract effect. In the Gulf of America, this means those volumes net to
Kosmos' working interest and net of royalty.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

EBITDAX, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per share,
free cash flow, and net debt are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used
by management and external users of the Company's consolidated financial
statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies.
The Company defines EBITDAX as Net income (loss) plus (i) exploration expense,
(ii) depletion, depreciation and amortization expense, (iii) equity based
compensation expense, (iv) unrealized (gain) loss on commodity derivatives
(realized losses are deducted and realized gains are added back), (v) (gain)
loss on sale of oil and gas properties, (vi) interest (income) expense, (vii)
income taxes, (viii) debt modifications and extinguishments, (ix) doubtful
accounts expense and (x) similar other material items which management
believes affect the comparability of operating results. The Company defines
Adjusted net income (loss) as Net income (loss) adjusted for certain items
that impact the comparability of results. The Company defines free cash flow
as net cash provided by operating activities less Oil and gas assets, Other
property, and certain other items that may affect the comparability of results
and excludes non-recurring activity such as acquisitions, divestitures and
National Oil Company ("NOC") financing. NOC financing refers to the amounts
funded by Kosmos under the Carry Advance Agreements that the Company has in
place with the national oil companies of each of Mauritania and Senegal
related to the financing of the respective national oil companies' share of
certain development costs at Greater Tortue Ahmeyim. The Company defines net
debt as total long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents and total
restricted cash.

 

 

We believe that EBITDAX, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income
(loss) per share, free cash flow, Net debt and other similar measures are
useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts,
investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the
oil and gas sector and will provide investors with a useful tool for assessing
the comparability between periods, among securities analysts, as well as
company by company. EBITDAX, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income
(loss) per share, free cash flow, and net debt as presented by us may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

This release also contains certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial
measures, including free cash flow. Due to the forward-looking nature of the
aforementioned non-GAAP financial measures, management cannot reliably or
reasonably predict certain of the necessary components of the most directly
comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, such as future impairments and
future changes in working capital. Accordingly, we are unable to present a
quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial
measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial
measures. Amounts excluded from these non-GAAP measures in future periods
could be significant.
