•Quality and transportation discounts for oil per boe in Canada increased in 2025 to$7.90 when compared to $4.49 in 2024, primarily as a result of higher pipeline tariffs related to new wells coming on stream in Simonette and Clearwater areas
Current report
•Transportation expenses for 2025 decreased by 8% or by$0.60 per boe to$17.0 million or $1.24 per boe compared to $18.5 million or $1.84 per boe in 2024 due to the full year of Canadian operations which had lower transportation costs per boe, and a shift to lower-cost delivery points in Colombia
Current report
•Gross profit decreased by 64% to $66.4 million compared to $182.6 million in 2024 primarily as a result of higher operating and depletion and accretion costs driven by a full year of Canadian operations in 2025

•During the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed the acquisition for 100% working interest of Perico and Espejo Blocks in the Oriente Basin in Ecuador for cash consideration of $8.3 million, deferred payment of $3.1 million and $1.1 million contingent consideration payable upon achieving 2.0 million barrels of crude oil production in the Perico Block
Current report
•In February 2025, the Colombian government introduced a temporary 1% excise tax on the first sale or export of crude oil pursuant to a declared state of internal emergency, effective through December 31, 2025. On October 16, 2025, the Colombian Constitutional Court upheld the validity of the emergency tax measures, including the excise tax on hydrocarbons, subject to a cap on total collections. The Court confirmed that the tax remains payable during its effective period and that any amounts collected in excess of the authorized budget must be refunded to taxpayers on a proportional basis following reporting by the Colombian tax authority. The determination of whether excess collections exist is expected to occur after the end of the tax period, once the tax authority completes its reporting of total collections. Accordingly, while we were required to comply with the tax through December 31, 2025, any potential refund would be assessed thereafter and cannot be determined at this time.

Income Tax Expense
Previous report
The difference between our effective tax rate of 43% for the year ended December 31, 2022, and the 35% Colombian statutory was primarily due to $26.6 million of hedging loss, $46.5 million of financing cost mainly related to the senior notes, and $23.1 million of stock-based compensation and G&A cost, which were incurred in jurisdictions where no tax benefit is recognized. These were partially offset by $13.2 million of non-taxable foreign exchange gain.

We received a cash payment of $2.8 million and $6.1 million related to the accrued interest of the $100.0 million and $150.0 million of new 9.50% Senior Notes, respectively. As at December 31, 2023, we had a $36.4 million balance outstanding under the Company’s credit facility.

On August 19, 2024, the Company entered into a credit facility agreement (“Loan Facility”) with a market leader in the global commodities industry to fund the cash consideration payable to i3 Energy’s shareholders in connection with the i3 Energy acquisition and associated costs (Note 3). The Loan Facility has a borrowing base of £80.0 million (US$107.0 million) and bears interest based on a three-month secured overnight financing rate posted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus a margin of 3.00% per annum for the first three months after the initial drawdown and 6.00% per annum thereafter. The Loan Facility is subject to a commitment fee equal to the higher of $0.5 million and 0.50% of the borrowing base converted to U.S. dollars using the agreed upon GBP to USD foreign exchange rate at the time of initial drawdown date. The Company paid $0.6 million of commitment fees and the Loan Facility was terminated on October 31, 2024.

Income Taxes
Previous report
We carry on business in several countries and as a result, we are subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. The determination of our income tax provision is inherently complex and we are required to interpret continually changing regulations and make certain judgments. While income tax filings are subject to audits and reassessments, we believe we have made adequate provision for all income tax obligations. However, changes in facts and circumstances as a result of income tax audits, reassessments, jurisprudence and any new legislation may result in an increase or decrease in our provision for income taxes.
Previous report
To assess the realization of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. This determination involves numerous judgments and assumptions and includes estimating factors such as commodity prices, production and other operating conditions. If any of those factors, assumptions or judgments change, the deferred tax asset could change, and in particular decrease in a period where we determine it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized. Alternatively, a valuation allowance may be reversed where it is determined it is more likely not that the asset will be realized.
Previous report
Legal and Other Contingencies
Previous report
A provision for legal and other contingencies is charged to expense when the loss is probable and the cost can be reasonably estimated. Determining when expenses should be recorded for these contingencies and the appropriate amount for accrual is a complex estimation process that includes the subjective judgment of management. In many cases, management’s judgment is based on interpretation of laws and regulations, which can be interpreted differently by regulators and/or courts of law. Management closely monitors known and potential legal and other contingencies and periodically determines when we should record losses for these items based on information available to us.
Previous report
Stock-Based Compensation
Previous report
Our stock-based compensation cost is measured based on the fair value of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Fair values are determined using pricing models such as the Black-Scholes simulation stock option-pricing model and/or observable share prices. These estimates depend on certain assumptions, including volatility, risk-free interest rate, the term of the awards, the forfeiture rate and performance factors, which, by their nature, are subject to measurement uncertainty. We use historical data to estimate the expected term used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model, option exercises and employee departure behavior. Expected volatilities used in the fair value estimate are based on the historical volatility of our shares. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected term of the stock options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
Previous report
Business Combination
Previous report
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized at their fair values. Any excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as a goodwill and any excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed over the consideration paid is recognized as bargain purchase gain in the consolidated statements of operations.

We follow the full cost method of accounting for our oil and gas properties. Under this method, the net book value of properties on a country-by-country basis, less related deferred income taxes, may not exceed a calculated “ceiling”. The ceiling is the estimated after-tax future net revenues from proved oil and gas properties, discounted at 10% per year. In calculating discounted future net revenues, oil and natural gas prices are determined using the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the month Brent price for the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the balance sheet. That average price is then held constant, except for changes which are fixed and determinable by existing contracts. Therefore, ceiling test estimates are based on historical prices discounted at 10% per year, and it should not be assumed that estimates of future net revenues represent the fair market value of our reserves.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the company strategically revised its 2022 tax return to use its tax receivable balance to offset current tax liabilities, rather than applying net operating loss carryforwards. This decision was driven by the expectation of higher future income tax rates and increased profitability. As a result, there was an increase in current tax expense of approximately $27.8 million which was offset by long-term tax receivable, ensuring no impact on cash flows. This approach preserved the Company’s net operating loss carryforward for future periods, providing greater tax benefits and flexibility in recovering tax receivables, while strengthening our equity position.
