Disclaimer Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Statements that are not strictly historical statements constitute forward-looking statements and may often, but not always, be identified by the use of such words such as “expects,” “believes,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “estimates,” “potential,” “possible,” or “probable” or statements that certain actions, events or results “may,” “will,” “should,” or “could” be taken, occur or be achieved. The forward-looking statements include statements about the expected benefits of the recently completed business combination with Bold Energy III LLC (the “Transaction”) to Earthstone and its stockholders, the expected future reserves, production, financial position, business strategy, revenues, earnings, costs, capital expenditures and debt levels of the company, and plans and objectives of management for future operations. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions and analyses made by Earthstone and its management in light of experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform to expectations is subject to a number of material risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to: Earthstone’s ability to integrate its combined operations with Bold successfully and achieve anticipated benefits from it; risks relating to any unforeseen liabilities of the combined company; further declines in oil, natural gas liquids or natural gas prices; the level of success in exploration, development and production activities; adverse weather conditions that may negatively impact development or production activities; the timing of exploration and development expenditures; inaccuracies of reserve estimates or assumptions underlying them; revisions to reserve estimates as a result of changes in commodity prices; impacts to financial statements as a result of impairment write-downs; risks related to level of indebtedness and periodic redeterminations of the borrowing base under Earthstone’s credit agreement; Earthstone’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet the internally funded portion of its capital expenditures budget; Earthstone’s ability to obtain external capital to finance exploration and development operations and acquisitions; the ability to successfully complete any potential asset dispositions and the risks related thereto; the impacts of hedging on results of operations; uninsured or underinsured losses resulting from oil and natural gas operations; Earthstone’s ability to replace oil and natural gas reserves; and any loss of senior management or key technical personnel. Earthstone’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, recent current reports on Form 8-K, and other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings discuss some of the important risk factors identified that may affect Earthstone’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. Earthstone undertakes no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements except as required by law.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measure – Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDAX Notes: (1)Earthstone Q2 2017 results, including business combination with Bold Energy on May 9, 2017. (2)Bold Energy standalone results prior to the completion of the Bold Transaction, from April 1, 2017 to May 8, 2017. (2) (1) Adjusted EBITDAX is used as a supplemental financial measure by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and others, to assess our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical costs basis. We define “Adjusted EBITDAX” as net income (loss) plus, when applicable, (gain) loss on sale of assets; accretion; impairment expense; depletion, depreciation and amortization; interest expense; interest income; transaction costs; exploration expense; unrealized (gain) loss on derivatives; stock based compensation; and income tax (benefit) expense. Our Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Our Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDAX in the same manner. Pro forma adjustments giving effect to the Bold Transaction as if such transactions had been completed on April 1, 2017, the beginning of the earliest period presented, for purposes of presenting Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDAX. The pro forma adjustments made are (1) directly attributable to the Bold Transaction, (2) factually supportable, and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results. The unaudited Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDAX is not indicative of future results. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income/(loss) to Adjusted EBITDAX on a pro forma combined basis for the three months ended June 30, 2017:

Slide 31

Non-GAAP Financial Measure – PV-10 Present Value Discounted at 10% (“PV-10”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that differs from the GAAP measure “standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows” in that PV-10 is calculated without regard to future income taxes. Earthstone management believes that the presentation of the PV-10 value is relevant and useful to investors because it presents the estimated discounted future net cash flows attributable to our estimated proved reserves independent of our income tax attributes, thereby isolating the intrinsic value of the estimated future cash flows attributable to our reserves. Because many factors that are unique to each individual company impact the amount of future income taxes to be paid, Earthstone believes the use of a pre-tax measure provides greater comparability of assets when evaluating companies. PV-10 does not necessarily represent the fair market value of oil and natural gas properties. PV-10 is not a measure of financial or operational performance under GAAP, nor should it be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows as defined under GAAP. Earthstone and Bold PV-10 as of December 31, 2016 were independently estimated by Cawley, Gillespie & Associates, Inc. utilizing NYMEX 5-year strip prices as of December 31, 2016 (Oil – $56.19, $56.59, $56.10, $56.05, $56.21 / Gas - $3.61, $3.14, $2.87, $2.88, $2.90).
