"2021 was a year of comprehensive delivery against our framework for success, as evidenced by bottom line financial results and ESG excellence that compete not only with the best companies in energy, but with the best in the S&P 500," said Chairman, President, and CEO Lee Tillman. "We stayed disciplined and did not waver from our reinvestment rate driven capital allocation priorities, generating over $2.2 billion of free cash flow, including about $900 million during fourth quarter alone. We dramatically enhanced our balance sheet quality by accelerating gross debt reduction initiatives. We then successfully transitioned to market leading return of capital to our equity investors, consistent with our differentiated percentage of cash flow framework. During fourth quarter, we returned more than 70% of our cash flow from operations to equity investors, significantly exceeding our minimum 40% commitment."

"We are demonstrating that investors will get the first call on cash flow generation, as evidenced by $1 billion of share repurchases since October and four consecutive increases to our quarterly base dividend. These repurchases have reduced our share count by 8% in just four and a half months, driving strong underlying growth to our per share financial metrics. As we look ahead to 2022, you can expect more of the same from our Company: peer leading capital efficiency and operational execution, significant free cash flow generation, and market leading return of capital to shareholders. Additionally, we will remain just as focused on continuing to deliver comprehensive ESG excellence, driven by our mission to provide the responsible, reliable, and affordable energy that the world needs."

Return of Capital Overview

After accelerating its 2021 gross debt reduction objective of $1.4 billion into third quarter, the Company successfully shifted its focus to increasing return of capital to equity investors. Marathon Oil's percentage of cash flow from operations (CFO) framework provides clear visibility to significant return of capital to equity investors and ensures the shareholder gets the first call on cash flow generation. In a $60/bbl WTI or higher price environment, the Company targets returning a minimum of 40% of CFO to equity investors. During fourth quarter, Marathon Oil returned over 70% of CFO to shareholders through a combination of share repurchases and base dividend, significantly exceeding its minimum 40% commitment.

In total, since October 2021, Marathon Oil has executed $1 billion of share repurchases, reducing its outstanding share count by 8%. The Company has $1.7 billion of current share repurchase authorization outstanding.

Subsequent to fourth quarter, the Company raised its base dividend by 17% from 6 cents per share to 7 cents per share. This is the fourth consecutive increase to the quarterly base dividend, representing a cumulative increase of 133%.

For 2022, by staying disciplined and maintaining a low reinvestment rate, Marathon Oil expects to exceed its commitment to return a minimum of 40% of CFO to equity investors, assuming an oil price of $60/bbl WTI or higher.

4Q21 Financial and Operating Results

CASH FLOW AND CAPEX: Net cash provided by operations was $1,146 million during fourth quarter 2021, or $1,101 million before changes in working capital. Fourth quarter capital expenditures totaled $251 million.

FREE CASH FLOW: Marathon Oil generated $898 million of free cash flow during fourth quarter, including $46 million of E.G. return of capital distributions.

RETURN OF CAPITAL: Marathon Oil returned $819 million of total capital to equity investors during fourth quarter, including $772 million of share repurchases ($724 million of which settled in 2021) and $47 million of base dividend payments.

BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY: Marathon Oil ended fourth quarter with total liquidity of $3.7 billion, which consisted of an undrawn revolving credit facility of $3.1 billion and $580 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company's year-end cash balance of $580 million represents an increase from the third quarter cash balance of $485 million.

ADJUSTMENTS TO NET INCOME: The negative adjustments to net income for fourth quarter totaled $57 million, primarily due to the income impact associated with net unrealized gains on derivative instruments, partially offset by net losses on asset sales, exploration impairment charges, and other non-core expenses.

UNITED STATES (U.S.): U.S. production averaged 304,000 net barrels of oil equivalent per day (boed) for fourth quarter 2021. Oil production averaged 172,000 net barrels of oil per day (bopd). U.S. unit production costs were $4.90 per boe for fourth quarter.

During fourth quarter, the Company brought a total of 47 gross Company-operated wells to sales. In the Eagle Ford, Marathon Oil's fourth quarter production averaged 93,000 net boed, including oil production of 60,000 net bopd, with 18 gross Company-operated wells to sales. In the Bakken, production averaged 124,000 net boed, including oil production of 81,000 net bopd, with 25 gross Company-operated wells to sales. Oklahoma production averaged 56,000 net boed, including oil production of 13,000 net bopd, with 4 gross Company-operated wells to sales. Northern Delaware production averaged 22,000 net boed, including oil production of 12,000 net bopd.

INTERNATIONAL: Equatorial Guinea production averaged 49,000 net boed for fourth quarter, including 9,000 net bopd of oil. Unit production costs averaged $4.05 per boe. Net income from equity method investees totaled $74 million. Marathon Oil received $101 million of total cash distributions from equity method companies during fourth quarter in the form of dividends and return of capital. Fourth quarter production, unit production costs, and net income from equity method investees were impacted by previously disclosed unplanned downtime in Equatorial Guinea during the month of October. Normal operations resumed in early November.

2021 Reserves

Year-end 2021 proved reserves totaled 1,106 million barrels of oil equivalent (mmboe), an increase of 134 mmboe, or 14%, in comparison to year-end 2020 proved reserves. 2021 proved reserve additions were attributable to higher commodity prices, performance improvements, extensions in proved areas, and 5-year plan changes. Oil accounted for 52% of the Company's year-end 2021 proved reserves.

2022 Capital Budget and Guidance

Marathon Oil today announced a $1.2 billion capital expenditure budget for 2022, fully consistent with the Company's disciplined capital allocation framework. At $80/bbl WTI and $4.00/MMBtu Henry Hub, the 2022 program is expected to deliver in excess of $3.0 billion of free cash flow at a reinvestment rate of less than 30%. The Company does not plan to deviate from its announced capital budget in the event of continued strong commodity pricing. By staying disciplined and maintaining a low reinvestment rate, Marathon Oil expects to exceed its commitment to return a minimum of 40% of CFO to equity investors, assuming an oil price of $60/bbl WTI or higher.

For reference, at $60/bbl WTI and $3.00/MMBtu Henry Hub, the 2022 program is expected to deliver $1.6 billion of free cash flow at a reinvestment rate of approximately 40%8. The resilience of the 2022 capital program is additionally underscored by an enterprise free cash flow breakeven below $35/bbl WTI, assuming $3.00/MMBtu Henry Hub.

Both total Company oil and oil-equivalent production in 2022 are expected to be flat with the 2021 averages, consistent with the objective to prioritize sustainable free cash flow generation over production growth.

Marathon Oil guided to E.G. net income from equity method investees of $280 million to $320 million in 2022, an increase from $253 million of equity method income in 2021.

The Company has no material debt maturities due in 2022.

Non-GAAP Measures

In analyzing and planning for its business, Marathon Oil supplements its use of GAAP financial measures with non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, net cash provided by operations before changes in working capital, total capital expenditures and capital reinvestment rate.

Our presentation of adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for gains/losses on dispositions, impairments of proved and certain unproved properties, goodwill and equity method investments, certain exploration expenses relating to a strategic decision to exit conventional exploration, unrealized derivative gain/loss on commodity and interest rate derivative instruments, effects of pension settlements and curtailments and other items that could be considered "non-operating" or "non-core" in nature. Management believes this is useful to investors as another tool to meaningfully represent our operating performance and to compare Marathon to certain competitors. Adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Our presentation of free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure. Free cash flow before dividend ("free cash flow") is defined as net cash provided by operating activities adjusted for working capital, exploration costs (other than well costs), capital expenditures, and EG LNG return of capital and other. Management believes this is useful to investors as a measure of Marathon's ability to fund its capital expenditure programs, service debt, and other distributions to stockholders. Free cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Our presentation of net cash provided by operations before changes in operating working capital and net cash provided by operations before changes in operating working capital and exploration costs are non-GAAP measures. Management believes this is useful to investors as an indicator of Marathon's ability to generate cash quarterly or year-to-date by eliminating differences caused by the timing of certain working capital items. Net cash provided by operations before changes in working capital and net cash provided by operations before changes in working capital and exploration costs should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Our presentation of total capital expenditures is a non-GAAP measure. Total capital expenditures is defined as cash additions to property, plant and equipment adjusted for the change in working capital associated with property, plant and equipment, exploration costs other than well costs, M&S inventory and other, and additions to other assets. Management believes this is useful to investors as an indicator of Marathon's commitment to capital expenditure discipline by eliminating differences caused by the timing of certain working capital and other items. Total capital expenditures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash additions to property, plant and equipment as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Capital spending reinvestment rate is defined as total capital expenditures divided by operating cash flow before working capital. Management believes the capital spending reinvestment rate is useful to investors to demonstrate the Company's commitment to generating cash for use towards investor friendly purposes (which includes balance sheet enhancement, base dividend, and other return of capital).

These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the business that, when viewed with GAAP results may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the business and are a useful tool to help management and investors make informed decisions about Marathon Oil's financial and

operating performance. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.A reconciliation to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found in our investor package on our website at https://ir.marathonoil.com/ and in the tables below. Marathon Oil strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
