| Planet | Orbital period | Distance from star | Radius (Earths) | Mass (Earths) | Found | Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| K2-99 b | 18.25 days | 0.153 AU | 11.88 | 276.5 | 2016 | Transit |
| K2-99 c | 522.2 days | 1.43 AU | at least 2,670 | 2022 | Radial Velocity |
"At least" is a minimum mass. Radial velocity can only measure mass times the sine of the orbit's tilt.
