  • Demo Asset: Production in the first quarter of 2025 increased by 46% compared to the previous quarter to 4,882 bbls/d, driven by the activation of additional redevelopment wells and the startup of the second disposal well in Q4 2024.

Demo Asset 4,882 2,306 3,337
Consolidated 17,495 19,667 19,384

Capital expenditures for Q1 2025 totaled $26.3 million, compared to $34.4 million in the same period of the prior year. Adjusted free cash flow was $5.1 million for Q1 2025, an improvement from negative $6.9 million in Q1 2024, primarily driven by more favorable WCS Hardisty differentials and lower capital expenditures.

Operational Update

Production and Steam Generation Updates

The Company’s production for Q2 2025 to date is approximately 15,650 bbls/d due to steam generation downtime and base production declines at the Expansion Asset. At present, one of the four steam generation units is offline, with an associated production impact of approximately 1,500 to 2,250 bbls/d. The Company is targeting restoring the offline steam generator by year-end 2025 and is implementing mitigation strategies to reduce production impacts during this period.

Emissions Reporting and Regulatory Engagement

Greenfire continues to engage in discussions with the Alberta Energy Regulator (“AER”) regarding previously reported sulphur dioxide emissions that exceed regulatory limits at the Expansion Asset. The Company takes its regulatory obligations very seriously and has ordered sulphur removal facilities at the Expansion Asset, at a total estimated cost of $15 million ($20 million on a 100% working interest basis), with installation and commissioning targeted for Q4 2025. Greenfire anticipates that this measure will restore compliance with the sulphur dioxide emissions requirements at the Expansion Asset in a safe and efficient manner.

Progress Update on Future Development Plans

Article content

The Company is advancing its evaluation of development plans, capital expenditures, and operational strategies for the Hangingstone Facilities. To address production declines at the Expansion Asset, the Company plans to construct new well pad locations and drill well pairs on the undeveloped reservoir northeast of the Central Processing Facility (the “CPF”). Final investment decision remains subject to approval by Greenfire’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) (see Exhibit 1). If the project is approved, drilling of these well pairs could begin as early as Q4 2025. The Company is evaluating additional development targets to the southeast of the CPF to support further production growth. At the Demo Asset, future developments are expected to focus on optimizing base production.

  • Mr. Derek Aylesworth is not standing for re-election to the Board of Directors at the annual meeting of Greenfire shareholders on May 6, 2025 (the “Meeting”). Following the Meeting, Mr. Brian Heald, if elected, will become the Chair of the audit committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”), and Mr. David Knight Legg, if elected, will join Mr. Tom Ebbern and Mr. Heald on the Audit Committee.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures

Certain financial measures in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures or ratios. These measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. This press release also contains supplementary financial measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios include operating netback, adjusted funds flow, adjusted free cash flow, net debt and per barrel figures associated with such non-GAAP financial measures. Supplementary financial measures and ratios include gross profit, capital expenditures and depletion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Operating Netback (including per barrel ($/bbl)) Gross profit (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to operating netback which is a non-GAAP measure. Operating netback is further adjusted for realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts, as appropriate. Operating netback per barrel ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing operating netback by the Company’s total bitumen sales volume in a specified period. When Operating netback is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a non-GAAP ratio. Operating netback is a financial measure widely used in the oil and gas industry as a supplementary measure of a company’s efficiency and ability to generate cash flow for debt repayments, capital expenditures or other uses.

(1) Supplementary financial measure.

Adjusted Funds Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Cash provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted funds flow, which is a non-GAAP measure. This measure is not intended to represent cash provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Story continues below

Article content

The adjusted funds flow measure allows management and others to evaluate the Company’s ability to fund its capital programs and meet its ongoing financial obligations using cash flow internally generated from ongoing operating related activities. We compute adjusted funds flow as cash provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of changes in non-cash working capital, less transaction costs and transactions considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations.

Cash provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP measure. Management uses adjusted free cash flow as an indicator of the efficiency and liquidity of its business, measuring its funds after capital investment that are available to manage debt levels and return capital to shareholders. By removing the impact of current period property, plant and equipment expenditures from adjusted free cash flow, management monitors its adjusted free cash flow to inform its capital allocation decisions. We compute adjusted free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of changes in non-cash working capital, less transaction costs, transactions considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations, property, plant and equipment expenditures and acquisition costs.
