seller, Panoro Energy Block G Limited, as purchaser, and Panoro, as purchaser guarantor. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement,

the Company received final cash consideration on completion, post-closing adjustments, of approximately $127 million. The closing adjustments

reflect the cash received from the assets in the first half of 2026 to completion on June 16, 2026. The Company is also entitled to future

contingent consideration of up to $39.5 million, comprised of $12.5 million linked to future production performance at the Ceiba field,

and $9.0 million payable in each of the years 2027, 2028 and 2029, subject to certain production and oil price thresholds.

Exhibit 99.1

KOSMOS ENERGY LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following Unaudited Pro

Forma Condensed Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2026 and the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statements of Operations for the three months

ended March 31, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025 have been derived from the historical consolidated financial statements

of Kosmos Energy Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries, “Kosmos” or the “Company”), as adjusted to give effect

for the sale of all of the shares of Kosmos International Petroleum, Inc., which indirectly holds a 40.375% participating interest in

the Ceiba Field and Okume Complex production assets located in Block G offshore Equatorial Guinea by the Company (the “Disposition”).

In consideration for the Disposition, Kosmos received upfront cash of approximately $127.0 million based on an initial purchase price

of $180.0 million reduced by certain purchase price adjustments totaling approximately $53.0 million, and is entitled to future contingent

consideration of up to $39.5 million, comprising $12.5 million linked to production performance at the Ceiba field and $9.0 million payable

in each of 2027, 2028 and 2029, which are subject to certain oil price and production thresholds. The contingent consideration has not

been recognized in the pro forma balance sheet. The Unaudited Pro forma Condensed Financial Information is intended to reflect the estimated

impact of the Disposition on the Company on a pro forma basis as of and for the periods indicated.

The following Unaudited Pro

Forma Condensed Financial Information is based on and should be read in conjunction with:

• The historical audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and the related notes and “Management’s

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the

fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 2, 2026;

• The historical unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company and the related

notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in its quarterly

report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as filed with the SEC on May 5, 2026.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed

Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2026 and the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31,

2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025 give pro forma effects to the elimination of certain assets and liabilities associated

with the Disposition as if it had been consummated on March 31, 2026 (in the case of the balance sheet) or January 1, 2025 (in the case

of the statement of operations). The unaudited pro forma effects of the Disposition on the Company’s oil and gas reserves and the

standardized measure of future net cash flows, give pro forma effect to the Dispositions of the reserves based on the information disclosed

in the Company’s annual report as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed

Financial Information has been prepared to reflect adjustments to the Company’s historical consolidated financial information that

are (i) directly attributable to the Disposition and (ii) factually supportable.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed

Financial Information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial

position that actually would have been achieved if the Disposition had occurred on the dates indicated or that may be achieved in future

periods. It also does not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the Company may achieve with respect

to eliminating the companies or the impact of any non-recurring activity and any one-time transaction related costs. Synergies and integration

costs have been excluded from consideration because they do not meet the criteria for unaudited pro forma adjustments.

KOSMOS ENERGY LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL

STATEMENTS

Note 1.

Description of Transaction

On February 24, 2026, Kosmos

Energy Operating (“KEO”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kosmos Energy Ltd. (“Kosmos” or the “Company”),

entered into a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) for the sale (the “Disposition”) of all of the shares

of KEO’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Kosmos International Petroleum, Inc., which indirectly holds a 40.375% participating interest

in the Ceiba Field and Okume Complex production assets located in Block G offshore Equatorial Guinea. The Disposition closed on June 16,

2026. In consideration for the Disposition, Kosmos received approximately $127.0 million in upfront cash based on an initial purchase

price of $180.0 million reduced by certain purchase price adjustments totaling approximately $53.0 million, and is entitled to future

contingent consideration of up to $39.5 million, comprising $12.5 million linked to production performance at the Ceiba field and $9.0

million payable in each of 2027, 2028 and 2029, which are subject to certain oil price and production thresholds.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

The

following Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information reflect the consolidated historical results of the Company, on a pro forma

basis to give effect to the Disposition, as if it had been consummated on March 31, 2026 in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Balance

Sheet, and on January 1, 2025 in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statement of Operations.

The

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2026, respectively,

were derived from Kosmos’ unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 was derived from Kosmos’ audited

consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange

Commission. Certain information and certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance

with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however,

management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information reflect events directly attributable to the described Disposition and certain assumptions

that the Company believes are reasonable. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information are not necessarily indicative of financial

results that would have been attained had the described Disposition occurred on the dates indicated above. The adjustments are based on

currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions. Management believes that the assumptions provide a reasonable basis

for presenting the significant effects of the described Disposition as contemplated and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate

effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma consolidated and financial statements.

The

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to represent or be

indicative of the results of operations or financial position of the company that would have been recorded had the Disposition been completed

as of the dates presented and should not be taken as representative of future results of operations or financial position of the company.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information do not reflect the impacts of any potential operational efficiencies or cost savings

that the company may achieve following the Disposition.

The

unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related

notes included on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filed on March 2, 2026 and May 5, 2026, respectively.

The Unaudited Pro forma Condensed

Financial Information has been prepared by the Company by accounting for the transaction as a long-lived asset disposal under Accounting

Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 360 — Property, Plant and Equipment, including the criteria for assets

held for sale and the measurement of the disposal group at the lower of carrying amount for fair value lets cost to sell, as applicable.

The

following is a summary of the carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities that were classified as held for sale as

of March 31, 2026:

The following

adjustments have been made to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026.

A. Represents the elimination of assets and liabilities related to the sale of KIPI, along with

cash proceeds and resulting gain on sale associated with the Disposition. The cash proceeds are shown as a reduction in long-term

debt.

Note

4. Pro Forma Statement of Operations Adjustments

The following

adjustments have been made to the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months

ended March 31, 2026, and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

B. Represents the elimination of oil revenues and expenses and related results of operations associated with the Disposition.

Note

5. Pro Forma Supplemental Oil and Natural Gas Reserve Information

The

following tables set forth certain unaudited pro forma information concerning the Company’s proved oil and natural gas reserves

for the year ended December 31, 2025, giving effect to the Disposition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2025. There are numerous uncertainties

inherent in estimating the quantities of proved reserves and projecting future rates of production and timing of development costs. Further,

the volumes considered to be commercially recoverable fluctuate with changes in prices and operating costs. The Company emphasizes that

reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than those of currently producing

oil and natural gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as additional information becomes available in the

future. The estimates of reserves, and the standardized measure of future net cash flow, shown below, reflects the Company’s development

plan for such properties. The following reserve data represent estimates only and should not be construed as being precise.

Standardized

Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows

Summarized

in the following table is information for the standardized measure of discounted cash flows relating to proved reserves as of December

31, 2025, giving effect to the Disposition. The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows does not purport to be, nor should

it be interpreted to present, the fair value of the oil and natural gas reserves of the property. An estimate of fair value would take

into account, among other things, the recovery of reserves not presently classified as proved, the value of unproved properties, and consideration

of expected future economic and operating conditions.

The

estimates of future cash flows and future production and development costs as of December 31, 2025 are based on the unweighted arithmetic

average first-day-of-the-month price for the preceding 12-month period.

Estimated

future production of proved reserves and estimated future production and development costs of proved reserves are based on current costs

and economic conditions. All wellhead prices are held flat over the forecast period for all reserve categories. The estimated future net

cash flows are then discounted at a rate of 10%.

the foregoing determination of future cash inflows, sales prices used for gas and oil for December 31, 2025 were estimated using the average

price during the 12-month period, determined as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month.

Prices were adjusted by lease for quality, transportation fees and regional price differentials. Future costs of developing and producing

the proved gas and oil reserves reported at the end of each year shown were based on costs determined at each such year-end, assuming

the continuation of existing economic conditions.

is not intended that the FASB’s standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows represent the fair market value of the

Company’s proved reserves. The Company cautions that the disclosures shown are based on estimates of proved reserve quantities and

future production schedules which are inherently imprecise and subject to revision, and the 10% discount rate is arbitrary. In addition,

Estimates

of economically recoverable oil and natural gas reserves and of future net revenues are based upon a number of variable factors and assumptions,

all of which are to some degree subjective and may vary considerably from actual results. Therefore, actual production, revenues, development

and operating expenditures may not occur as estimated. The reserve data are estimates only, are subject to many uncertainties and are

based on data gained from production histories and on assumptions as to geologic formations and other matters. Actual quantities of oil

and natural gas may differ materially from the amounts estimated.
