California Resources Corporation (the "Company") presents in this Item 2.02 certain summary information for the three months ended September 30, 2026 regarding realized prices and commodity derivatives.

The information in this Item 2.02 shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
