Forward-Looking / Cautionary Statements This presentation, including any oral statements made regarding the contents of this presentation, contains forward-looking statements as defined under Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statement s of historical facts, that address activities that Laredo Petroleum, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “Laredo” or “LPI”) assumes, plans, expects, believes, intends , projects, estimates or anticipates (and other similar expressions) will, should or may occur in the future, including, but not limited to, the ability to consummate any proposed debt offering, inventory or the share repurchase program, which may be suspended or discontinued by the Company at any time, are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s current belief, based on currently available information, as to the outcome and timing of future events. General risks relating to Laredo include, but are not limited to, the decline in prices of oil, natural gas liquids and natur al gas and the related impact to financial statements as a result of asset impairments and revisions to reserve estimates, long-term performance of wells, drilling and operating risks, the increase in service costs, hedging activities, possible impacts of potential litigation and other factors, including those and other risks described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and those set forth from time to time in other filings with the Securities Exchang e Commission (“SEC”). These documents are available through Laredo’s website at www.laredopetro.com under the tab “Investor Relations” or through the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering and Analysis Retrieval System at www.sec.gov. Any of these factors could cause Laredo’s actual results and plans to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, Laredo can give no assurance that its future results will be as estimated. Laredo does not intend to, and disclaims any obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statement. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made and the Company undertakes no obligatio n to correct or update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. The SEC generally permits oil and natural gas companies, in filings made with the SEC, to disclose proved reserves, which are reserve estimates that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions and certain probable and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions for such terms. In this presentation, the Company may use the terms “resource potent ial,” “estimated ultimate recovery” (“EURs”) or “type curve,” each of which the SEC guidelines restrict from being included in filings with the SEC without strict compliance with SEC definitions. These terms refer to the Company’s internal estimates of unbooked hydrocarbon quantities that may be potentially discovered through exploratory drilling or recovered with additional drilling or recovery techniques. “Resource potential” is used by the Company to refer to the estimated quantities of hydrocarbons that may be added to proved reserves, largely from a spec ified resource play potentially supporting numerous drilling locations. A “resource play” is a term used by the Company to describe an accumulation of hydrocarbons known to exist over a large areal expanse and/or thick vertical section potentially supporting numerous drilling locations, which, when compared to a conventional play, typically has a lower geological and/or commercial development risk. EURs are based on the Company’s previous operating experience in a given area and publicly available information relating to the operations of producers who are conducting operations in these areas. Unbooked resource potential or EURs do not constitute reserves within the meaning of the Society of Petroleum Engineer’s Petroleum Res ource Management System or SEC rules and do not include any proved reserves. Actual quantities of reserves that may be ultimately recovered from the Company’s interes ts may differ substantially from those presented herein. Factors affecting ultimate recovery include the scope of the Company’s ongoing drilling program, which will be directly affec ted by the availability of capital, decreases in oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas prices, well spacing, drilling costs and production costs, availability and costs of drilling services and equipment, drilling results, lease expirations, transportation constraints, regulatory approvals, negative revisions to reserve estimates and other factors as well as actual drilling results, including geological and mechanical factors affecting recovery rates. Estimates of EURs may change significantly as development of the Company’s core assets provides additional data. In ad dition, our production forecasts and expectations for future periods are dependent upon many assumptions, including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells and the undertaking and outcome of future drilling activity, which may be affected by significant commodity price declines or drilling cost increases. “Type curve” refers to a production profile of a well, or a particular category of wells, for a specific play and/or area. In addition, the Company’s production forecasts and expectations for future periods are dependent upon many assumptions , including estimates of production decline rates from existing wells and the undertaking and outcome of future drilling activity, which may be affected by significant commodity pr ice declines or drilling cost increases. The “standardized measure” of discounted future new cash flows is calculated in accordance with SEC regulations and a discount rate of 10%. The actual results may vary considerably and should not be considered to represent the fair market value of the Company’s proved reserves. This presentation includes financial measures that are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including Adjusted EBITDA, cash flow and Free Cash Flow. W hile management believes that such measures are useful for investors, they should not be used as a replacement for financial measures that are in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, cash flow and Free Cash Flow to the nearest comparable measure in accordance with GAAP, please see the Appendix. All amounts, dollars and percentages presented in this presentation are rounded and therefore approximate. 2

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measure Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net income or loss plus adjustments for income taxes, depletion, depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, non-cash stock-based compensation, net, accretion expense, mark-to-market on derivatives, premiums paid for derivatives, interest expense, gains or losses on disposal of assets and other non-recurring income and expenses. Adjusted EBITDA provides no information regarding a company's capital structure, borrowings, interest costs, capital expenditures, working capital movement or tax position. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent funds available for future discretionary use because those funds are required for future debt service, capital expenditures, working capital, income taxes, franchise taxes and other commitments and obligations. However, our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance because this measure: is widely used by investors in the oil and natural gas industry to measure a company's operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such term, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods, the book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors; helps investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the effect of our capital structure from our operating structure; and is used by our management for various purposes, including as a measure of operating performance, in presentations to our board of directors and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting. There are significant limitations to the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of performance, including the inability to analyze the effect of certain recurring and non-recurring items that materially affect our net income or loss, the lack of comparability of results of operations to different companies and the different methods of calculating Adjusted EBITDA reported by different companies. Our measurements of Adjusted EBITDA for financial reporting as compared to compliance under our debt agreements differ. The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP): Net income (loss) Plus: Income tax (benefit) expense Depletion, depreciation and amortization Impairment expense Non-cash stock-based compensation, net Restructuring expenses Accretion expense Mark-to-market on derivatives: (Gain) loss on derivatives, net Settlements received (paid) for matured derivatives, net Settlements paid for early termination of derivatives, net Premiums paid for derivatives Interest expense Litigation settlement (Gain) Loss on disposal of assets, net ($264,629) $55,050 ($100,738) $175,022 (2,467) 69,099 397,890 (1,739) 5,965 1,005 1,387 55,963 - 8,733 - 1,114 (812) 197,900 397,890 5,244 16,371 3,077 1,387 152,278 - 28,748 - 3,341 (96,684) 25,245 - (1,415) 15,191 - (1,294) 32,245 (3,888) - (5,455) 14,845 - 616 (136,713) 48,827 (5,409) (7,664) 46,503 (42,500) 315 69,211 (5,943) - (14,930) 42,787 - 4,591 Adjusted EBITDA $146,167 $160,610 $422,291 $456,492 24 Three months ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, (in thousands, unaudited) 2019 2018 2019 2018

Free Cash Flow Free Cash Flow does not represent funds available for future discretionary use because those funds are required for future debt service, capital expenditures, working capital, income taxes, franchise taxes and other commitments and obligations. However, our management believes Free Cash Flow is useful to management and investors in evaluating the operating trends in its business due to production, commodity prices, operating costs and other related factors. There are significant limitations to the use of Free Cash Flow as a measure of performance, includ ing the lack of comparability due to different methods of calculating Free Cash Flow reported by different companies. The following table presents a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities (GAAP) to cash flows from operating activities before changes in assets and liabilities, net (non-GAAP), less costs incurred, excluding non-budgeted acquisition costs, for the calculation of Free Cash Flow (non-GAAP): Net cash provided by operating activities Less: Increase in current assets and liabilities, net (Increase) decrease in noncurrent assets $105,599 $145,927 $366,868 $408,528 (21,183) (313) (48,305) (9,685) and liabilities, net (1,124) (1,570) 1,853 (279) Cash flows from operating activities before changes in assets and liabilities, net (‘Cash Flow’) 127,906 147,810 413,320 418,492 Less costs incurred, excluding non-budgeted acquisition costs Oil and natural gas properties Midstream service assets 76,837 1,147 147,250 383 365,839 7,584 486,329 3,649 Other fixed assets 999 1,255 1,966 6,197 Total costs incurred, excluding non-budgeted acquisition costs 78,983 148,888 375,389 496,175 Free Cash Flow $48,923 ($1,078) $37,931 ($77,683) 26 Three months ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, (in thousands, unaudited)2019201820192018
