THE WOODLANDS, Texas, Aug. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 聽Ring Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: REI) (鈥淩ing鈥� or the 鈥淐ompany鈥�) today reported its debt reduction target for the third quarter of 2025 and the change in ownership status of a previous large stockholder.

Ring Energy has established a debt reduction target of approximately $18 million for the third quarter of 2025. The Company anticipates it will have approximately $430 million in borrowings outstanding on its credit facility as of September 30, 2025, down from $448 million in borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2025. The Company further commented that Warburg Pincus has recently exited its full common equity position in Ring.

Mr. Paul D. McKinney, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, commented, 鈥淚n response to the drop in oil prices experienced earlier this year, the Company responded by adjusting capital spending and other operational alternatives within our control to focus on maximizing free cash flow generation and paying down debt. We believe our debt reduction target for the third quarter of $18 million further demonstrates our commitment to strengthening our balance sheet during these volatile times. We want to thank Warburg Pincus for our past partnership and the key role they played in helping Ring increase its size and scale significantly in mid-2022 with our Stronghold acquisition.鈥�
