CALGARY, AB, Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Frontera Energy Corporation (TSX: FEC) ("Frontera" or the "Company") today reported financial and operational results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. All financial amounts in this news release and in the Company's financial disclosures are in United States dollars, unless otherwise stated. Figures from previous reporting periods were revised due to the re-presentation of continuing operations following the divestment of non-core assets in Ecuador. For more information, refer to the "Discontinued Operations" section of the interim management's discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, dated November 13, 2025 (the "MD&A").

Gabriel de Alba, Chairman of the Board of Directors, commented:

"In the third quarter, Frontera remained focused on enforcing capital discipline, driving savings and efficiency to navigate lower commodity prices. During the quarter, the Company generated $86.6 million in Operating EBITDA from continuing operations, generated Adjusted Infrastructure EBITDA of $30.4 million and $115.0 million in cash provided by operating activities, extended its crude oil hedges through the first half of 2026 and ended the quarter with $172.1 million of total cash (including restricted cash), underscoring its strong balance sheet.

Regarding the Company's Guyana Exploration business, the Government of Guyana, through its counsel, communicated its willingness to participate in a final "Without Prejudice" meeting with Frontera and its partner CGX Energy Inc ("CGX" and together the "Joint Venture") to discuss the matters in dispute. The Government proposed November 25 or December 2, 2025, as possible dates for this meeting. The Joint Venture remains open to engaging in good faith discussions with the government. 

Frontera continues to prioritize initiatives that drive stakeholder value. Today, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of C$0.0625 per share, or approximately $3.1 million in aggregate, and year to date, the Company has repurchased 385,200 shares via its Normal-Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB") program. Over the last twelve months, Frontera has returned over $112 million to shareholders via dividends and share repurchases, including $66.5 million paid to shareholders during the third quarter through a Substantial Issuer Bid ("SIB"), reducing its shares outstanding by 14% since the end of 2024, and the Company successfully repurchased over $80 million of its senior unsecured notes due 2028 reducing the balance outstanding to $314 million, underscoring the Company's commitment to return capital to all its stakeholders.

Frontera is pleased to announce its qualification for the OTCQX® Best Market, an important milestone that increases the Company's visibility in the United States and reinforces its commitment to strong financial disclosure and corporate governance. Trading on OTCQX enhances access to a broader U.S. investor base, including the U.S. retail market, offering shareholders improved liquidity and more efficient participation under the Company's existing TSX reporting framework. 

Notably, OTC market activity has represented over 30% of FEC's total share trading over the past five years, highlighting the relevance of the U.S. market to Frontera's investor community. Access to this highest tier of the U.S. OTC markets further strengthens Frontera's ability to reach a broader investor base and enhance long-term value creation. Trading will commence tomorrow, November 14th, under the symbol "FECCF"."

Orlando Cabrales, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Frontera, commented:

"Frontera's third quarter financial and operating results highlight the decisive steps we are taking to deliver stakeholder value, maintain operational flexibility, drive cost efficiencies and maintain a strong balance sheet.  

During the quarter, we continued to prioritize operational improvements, reducing our production costs quarter-over-quarter by 5%, driven by the implementation of new field production technologies, continuous optimization, cost reduction in O&M contracts and digital process implementation. We also reduced our transportation costs by 1% quarter-over-quarter driven by optimizing our transportation routes and pipeline agreements, including the expiry of our long term Ocensa P-135 Take or Pay agreement. These improvements were partially offset by increasing energy costs as we processed higher liquids volumes during the quarter. We also simplified our corporate structure during the third quarter, through targeted reorganization initiatives that will improve organizational and operational efficiencies, generating between $10 and 15 million in expected savings in overhead going forward.

Production during the quarter decreased 2%, mainly due to adverse weather conditions as well as related operational and logistical challenges, which have since been resolved. The 2025 rainy season stands among the most severe in a decade, with well above historical rainfall averages impacting operations. For the nine months ending September 30, Frontera averaged 39,240 boe/d of production, an increase of over 3% compared with the same periods of 2024.

Considering these factors, we have adjusted our 2025 annual Colombia production guidance slightly to 39,000 - 39,500 boe/d. We have also tightened our 2025 capital expenditures guidance, reducing the higher end by around $25 million, to reflect the disciplined approach to capital spending and ability to identify ongoing operational efficiencies. 

Subsequent to the quarter, Frontera spudded the high-impact Guapo-1 well at the VIM-1 block, targeting natural gas and condensate. Drilling is expected to be completed by December 2025. The Guapo-1 well has the potential to significantly improve the Company's natural gas reserves, including to potentially provide much needed supply to the Colombian market in the short to medium term and help de-risk nearby contingent prospects.

On our infrastructure business, we continue to see strong momentum supporting all areas of this business unit. ODL saw strong quarter over quarter volumes and EBITDA growth led by an increase in production associated with Ecopetrol's Caño Sur block. In Puerto Bahía, the port's operating EBITDA was relatively flat quarter over quarter despite a reduction in liquids throughput volumes associated to a trader's exit from the country. The financial impact of the reduced liquids throughput volumes was offset entirely by a strong performance from our general cargo operations, which saw strong growth in container volumes, that surpassed 3,600 twenty-foot equivalent units ("TEUs") in October. On SAARA, water management volumes continue to increase and stabilize, reaching an average of approximately 157,000 barrels of water per day processed during the quarter, including reaching a maximum throughput of 230,000 barrels per day, and gaining momentum towards our goal of 250,000 barrels per day.

The Company's standalone and growing Colombian infrastructure business, which includes interests in ODL and Puerto Bahía, together with its partner GASCO, has reached final investment decision ("FID") on the planned liquified petroleum gas ("LPG") project. The initial phase is being fast-tracked and is expected to be operational in the first half of 2026, helping address supply constraints in Colombia's domestic LPG market. The LPG project is expected to generate between $10 and 15 million in yearly project EBITDA once it reaches its target capacity."

Third Quarter 2025 Operational and Financial Summary:

Executive Changes and Restructuring

In the third quarter, as part of Frontera's ongoing focus on cost-savings, the company simplified its corporate structure, through targeted reorganization initiatives that are designed to improve organizational and operational efficiencies, resulting in $10-$15 million in expected savings in overhead going forward.

Effective September 29, 2025, Mr. Ivan Arevalo, Vice President Operations assumed responsibility for Reservoir and Reserves. This adjustment is aligned with the Company's vision to enhance synergies, optimize processes, and ensures a comprehensive approach to managing all aspects of our operations. Mr. Arevalo has more than 30 years of experience in the oil and gas industry and has been with the Company for more than 17 years. 

On September 29, 2025, Mr. Andrés Sarmiento was promoted to Vice-President of Corporate Sustainability & People. Mr. Sarmiento is an Economist with a Master's degree in Economics from the Universidad de los Andes and a Master's degree in Energy, Mining, and Finance from Imperial College London. Prior to joining Frontera, Mr. Sarmiento previously was secretary general of the Colombian Association of Natural Gas, was a senior investment advisor in the London Office of ProColombia and an advisor to several ministers and vice ministers in the Colombian Ministry of Mines and Energy. 

The Company congratulates Mr. Arevalo and Mr. Sarmiento on their expanded roles.

With these organizational changes, Frontera aims to strengthen operational efficiency, align capabilities to address future challenges, and establish a more agile structure while building a more sustainable future.

Net income from continuing operations included a loss from operations of $13.9 million (net of a non-cash impairment expense of $9.7 million), finance expenses of $18.9 million and $4.9 million related to loss on risk management contracts, partially offset by an income tax recovery of $20.6 million (including $20.9 million of deferred income tax recovery), $15.9 million from share of income from associates, other income by $12.0 million mainly related to insurance recoveries for the Sabanero block by $14.7 million, and foreign exchange income of $2.1 million.
• Total Colombian production averaged 38,934 boe/d in the third quarter of 2025, compared with 39,778 boe/d in the prior quarter and 38,840 boe/d in the third quarter of 2024. Heavy crude oil production declined by 2% during the quarter, mainly due to adverse weather conditions as well as related operational and logistical challenges, which have since been resolved. Offset by increases in conventional natural gas production driven by the commercialization of volumes from the VIM-1 block. Additionally, Colombian light and medium crude oil combined production decrease by 6%, primarily due to natural declines.

• Operating EBITDA from continuing operations was $86.6 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $73.5 million in the prior quarter and $96.5 million in the third quarter of 2024. The quarter over quarter increase was mainly due to higher volumes sold during the quarter, higher Brent oil prices and lower production costs and transportation cost (net of realized FX hedge impact), partially offset by higher energy costs.
• Cash provided by operating activities was $115.0 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $41.8 million in the prior quarter, and $124.1 million in the third quarter of 2024. During the quarter, the Company invested $50.9 million in capital expenditures, paid $66.5 million to shareholders through its substantial issuer bid, received $14.7 million in insurance compensation for the Sabanero block and received $18.5 million in cash dividends from ODL.
• The Company reported a total cash position of $172.1 million at September 30, 2025, compared with $197.5 million at June 30, 2025, and $240.3 million at September 30, 2024.
• As at September 30, 2025, the Company had a total crude oil inventory balance of 919,914 barrels compared to 1,109,347 barrels at June 30, 2025. The Company had a total inventory balance in Colombia of 439,714 barrels, including 348,544 crude oil barrels and 91,170 barrels of diluent and others. This compared to 629,147 barrels as at June 30, 2025, and 777,158 barrels as at September 30, 2024. The decrease in inventory levels quarter over quarter was associated with higher volumes of oil inventory sold during the quarter.
• Capital expenditures were $50.9 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $59.0 million in the prior quarter and $74.9 million in the third quarter of 2024. During the third quarter the Company drilled 16 wells primarily in the Quifa and CPE-6 blocks.
• The Company's net sales realized price was $59.72/boe in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $58.98/boe in the prior quarter and $66.27/boe in the third quarter of 2024. The quarter over quarter increase was primarily driven by a higher Brent benchmark oil price, stronger oil price differentials, partially offset by premiums paid on oil price risk management contracts.
• The Company's operating netback from continuing operations was $33.98/boe in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $33.53/boe in the prior quarter and $39.54/boe in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in the Company's operating netback quarter-over-quarter was mainly due to higher net sales realized price, lower production costs and transportation cost, (net of realized FX hedge impacts), partially offset by higher energy costs
• Production costs (excluding energy costs), net of realized FX hedge impact, averaged $8.46/boe in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $8.89/boe in the prior quarter and $8.89/boe in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in production costs was primarily due to new field production technologies, continuous optimization, cost reduction in O&M contracts and digital process implementation.
• Energy costs, net of realized FX hedging impacts, averaged $5.56/boe in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $4.75/boe in the prior quarter and up from $5.25/boe in the third quarter of 2024. The increase quarter over quarter was mainly due to higher fuel consumption resulting from higher processed production liquid volumes.
• Transportation costs, net of realized FX hedging impacts averaged $11.72/boe in the third quarter of 2025, compared with $11.81/boe in the prior quarter and $12.59/boe in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in transportation costs during the quarter was mainly driven by the optimization of the transportation routes and pipeline agreements including the termination of the Ocensa P-135 long-term Take-or-Pay agreement.
• Restructuring costs during the quarter were $8.3 million, driven by targeted reorganization initiatives, resulting in expected savings of 20% in corporate overhead going forward.
• ODL volumes transported were 241,958 bbl/d during the third quarter of 2025, up slightly led by an increase in volumes from Ecopetrol's Caño Sur block, compared with the previous quarter, which saw 235,804 bbl/d in volumes transported.
• Total Puerto Bahia liquids volumes were 39,560 bbl/d during the quarter compared to 53,280 bbl/d the previous quarter, the reduction in liquids volumes was due to a third-party trader's exit from the country. The Company is actively seeking to replace the lost volumes. The financial impact of the reduced liquids throughput volumes was offset entirely by a strong performance from the general cargo operations, which saw strong growth in container volumes, that surpassed 3,000 TEUs in September.
• Adjusted Infrastructure EBITDA in the quarter was $30.4 million, compared to $27.1 million in the prior quarter. The quarter over quarter increase was mainly a result of higher revenues from the ODL business due to higher volumes transported through the pipeline.

Frontera's Sustainability Strategy

During the quarter, the Company continued to make progress towards its 2028 sustainability goals and achieved 81% of its 2025 plan year to date.

In line with its supply chain sustainability strategy, the Company strengthened its Business Network for Responsible Business Conduct — a collaborative platform that fosters human rights due diligence, shared policies, and best practices — ensuring a consistent and responsible approach across suppliers and key subsidiaries, including Puerto Bahía and ProAgrollanos.

At the VIM-1 block, activities related to the Guapo-1 exploration well are ongoing. Civil works have been completed, and the well was spudded in October 16, 2025. At the Llanos-119 block, the Colombian National Hydrocarbon Agency ("ANH") approved the request to transfer commitments to VIM-46 block to acquire a 3D seismic survey. In addition, the Company is engaged in pre-seismic and pre-drilling activities related to social and environmental studies in the Llanos-99 and VIM-46 blocks.

2. Infrastructure Colombia

Frontera's Infrastructure Colombia Segment includes the Company's 35% equity interest in the ODL pipeline through Frontera's wholly owned subsidiary, FPI and the Company's 99.97% interest in Puerto Bahia. Beginning in 2024, the Infrastructure Colombia Segment also includes the Company's reverse osmosis water treatment facility (SAARA) and its palm oil plantation (ProAgrollanos).

Frontera's and its partner GASCO, announced that the partners had reached a final investment decision on its planned LPG project. The initial phase of the project is being fast-tracked and expected to be operational in the first half of 2026. supporting the challenges in Colombia's domestic LPG market. The LPG project will generate between $10 and 15 million in yearly project EBITDA once it reaches its target capacity. The Company continues to pursue strategic investment opportunities to maximize the port's infrastructure and drive long-term value creation.

The Reficar connection's construction was completed, and the Port's efforts have shifted to working together with Ecopetrol to start utilizing the connection and establishing Puerto Bahia as a strategic partner for the Reficar Refinery.

Infrastructure Colombia Segment Results

Adjusted Infrastructure EBITDA in the third quarter of 2025 was $30.4 million, compared with $27.1 million during the second quarter of 2025. ODL saw strong quarter over quarter volume increase and EBITDA, led by an increase in production associated with Ecopetrol's Caño Sur block.

Puerto Bahía's operating EBITDA was relatively flat quarter over quarter despite a reduction in liquids associated to a third-part trader's exit from the country. The financial impact of the reduced liquids throughput volumes was offset entirely by a strong performance from general cargo operations, which saw strong growth in container volumes, that surpassed 3,000 TEUs in September.

On the SAARA side, the Company continued to increase water management volumes reaching an average of 156,767 barrels of water per day for the quarter. The Company achieved maximum throughput capacity of 230,000 barrels of water per day, gaining momentum towards its goal of 250,000 barrels per day.

Segment capital expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2025, totaled $4.8 million primarily driven by Puerto Bahia investments of $3.9 million, including: (i) $4.6 million towards the connection project between Puerto Bahia's port facility and the Cartagena refinery, (ii) tank maintenance, and (iii) general cargo terminal facilities. The third quarter also includes investment in the SAARA project and palm oil plantation.

3. Guyana - Arbitration Update

On March 26, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries, Frontera Petroleum International Holding B.V. and Frontera Energy Guyana Holding Ltd. (the "Investors"), delivered a Notice of Intent to the Government of Guyana (the "GoG"). In this Notice, the Investors alleged breaches of the United Kingdom–Guyana Bilateral Investment Treaty and the Guyana Investment Act by the GoG. This communication triggered a 90-day consultation and negotiation period intended to resolve the dispute amicably. The parties have been unable to reach a mutual resolution to date.

On November 4, 2025, the GoG, through its counsel, communicated its willingness to participate in a final "Without Prejudice" meeting with the Joint Venture to discuss the matters in dispute. The Government proposed November 25 or December 2, 2025, as possible dates for this meeting. The Joint Venture remains open to engaging in good faith discussions with the Government.

The Joint Venture continues to firmly maintain that its interests in, and the license for, the Corentyne block remain valid and in good standing and that the Petroleum Agreement for such block has not been terminated. While the Government of Guyana reaffirmed its position that the Joint Venture's interest expired on June 28, 2024, the Joint Venture strongly disagrees and remains committed to asserting its legal rights under applicable treaties and agreements.

As previously disclosed, the Company evaluated the recoverability of the Corentyne E&E asset in light of the GoG's conduct and unwillingness to recognize the Joint Venture's rights during the consultation period. This resulted in an impairment of $432.2 million, reducing the carrying value of the Corentyne E&E asset to $Nil as of June 30, 2025 (December 31, 2024: $431.9 million).

The Joint Venture jointly holds 100% working interest in the Corentyne block, located offshore Guyana. Frontera Guyana and CGX Resources have agreed that their respective participating interests are 72.52% and 27.48%, which includes a 4.52% interest that CGX Resources agreed to assign to Frontera Guyana in 2023. This assignment remains subject to the approval of the Government of Guyana but is enforceable between Frontera Guyana and CGX Resources.

Hedging Update

As part of its risk management strategy, Frontera uses derivative commodity instruments to manage exposure to price volatility by hedging a portion of its oil production. The Company's strategy aims to protect 40-60% of its estimated net after royalties' production using a combination of instruments, capped and non-capped, to protect the revenue generation and cash position of the Company, while maximizing the upside, thereby allowing the Company to take a more dynamic approach to the management of its hedging portfolio.

The following table summarizes Frontera's hedging position as of November 13, 2025.

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations primarily arising from expenditures that are incurred in COP and its fluctuation against the USD. As of November 13, 2025 the Company had the following foreign currency derivatives contracts:

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This press release contains various "non-IFRS financial measures" (equivalent to "non-GAAP financial measures", as such term is defined in NI 52-112), "non-IFRS ratios" (equivalent to "non-GAAP ratios", as such term is defined in NI 52-112), "supplementary financial measures" (as such term is defined in NI 52-112) and "capital management measures" (as such term is defined in NI 52-112), which are described in further detail below. Such measures do not have standardized IFRS definitions. The Company's determination of these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from other reporting issuers and they are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Furthermore, these financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance or cash flows as prepared in accordance with IFRS. These financial measures do not replace or supersede any standardized measure under IFRS. Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

The Company discloses these financial measures, together with measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, because management believes they provide useful information to investors and shareholders, as management uses them to evaluate the operating performance of the Company. These financial measures highlight trends in the Company's core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Further, management also uses non-IFRS measures to exclude the impact of certain expenses and income that management does not believe reflect the Company's underlying operating performance. The Company's management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period and to prepare annual operating budgets and as a measure of the Company's ability to finance its ongoing operations and obligations.

Set forth below is a description of the non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios, supplementary financial measures and capital management measures used in the MD&A.

Operating EBITDA from Continuing Operations *

EBITDA is a commonly used non-IFRS financial measure that adjusts net income (loss) as reported under IFRS to exclude the effects of income taxes, finance income and expenses, and DD&A. Operating EBITDA from continuing operations is a non-IFRS financial measure that represents the operating results of the Company's primary business, excluding the following items: restructuring, severance and other costs, post-termination obligation, trunkline costs, temporal taxes, payments of minimum work commitments and, certain non-cash items (such as impairments, foreign exchange, unrealized risk management contracts, share-based compensation and debt extinguishment cost) and gains or losses arising from the disposal of capital assets. In addition, other unusual or non-recurring items are excluded from operating EBITDA from continuing operations, as they are not indicative of the underlying core operating performance of the Company.

The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Operating EBITDA from continuing operations:

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures is a non-IFRS financial measure that reflects the cash and non-cash items used by the Company to invest in capital assets. This financial measure considers oil and gas properties, plant and equipment, infrastructure, exploration and evaluation assets expenditures which are items reconciled to the Company's Statements of Cash Flows for the period.

Infrastructure Colombia Calculations

Each of Adjusted Infrastructure Revenue, Adjusted Infrastructure Operating Costs and Adjusted Infrastructure General and Administrative, is a non-IFRS financial measure, and each is used to evaluate the performance of the Infrastructure Colombia Segment operations. Adjusted Infrastructure Revenue includes revenues of the Infrastructure Colombia Segment including ODL's revenue direct participation interest. Adjusted Infrastructure Operating Costs includes costs of the Infrastructure Colombia Segment including ODL's cost direct participation interest. Adjusted Infrastructure General and Administrative includes general and administrative costs of the Infrastructure Colombia Segment including ODL's general and administrative direct participation interest.

A reconciliation of each of Adjusted Infrastructure Revenue, Adjusted Infrastructure Operating Costs and Adjusted Infrastructure General and Administrative is provided below.

Adjusted Infrastructure EBITDA

The Adjusted Infrastructure EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure used to assist in measuring the operating results of the Infrastructure Colombia Segment business.

Net Sales

Net sales is a non-IFRS financial measure that adjusts revenue to include realized gains and losses from oil risk management contracts while removing the cost of any volumes purchased from third parties. This is a useful indicator for management, as the Company hedges a portion of its oil production using derivative instruments to manage exposure to oil price volatility. This metric allows the Company to report its realized net sales after factoring in these oil risk management activities. The deduction of cost of purchases is helpful to understand the Company's sales performance based on the net realized proceeds from its own production, the cost of which is partially recovered when the blended product is sold. Net sales also exclude sales from port services, as it is not considered part of the oil and gas segment. Refer to the reconciliation in the "Sales" section on page 10 of the MD&A.

Operating Netback and Oil and Gas Sales, Net of Purchases

Operating netback is a non-IFRS financial measure and operating netback per boe is a non-IFRS ratio. Operating netback per boe is used to assess the net margin of the Company's production after subtracting all costs associated with bringing one barrel of oil to the market. It is also commonly used by the oil and gas industry to analyze financial and operating performance expressed as profit per barrel and is an indicator of how efficient the Company is at extracting and selling its product. For netback purposes, the Company removes the effects of any trading activities and results from its Infrastructure Colombia Segment from the per barrel metrics and adds the effects attributable to transportation and operating costs of any realized gain or loss on foreign exchange risk management contracts. Refer to the reconciliation in the "Operating Netback" section on page 9 of the MD&A.

The following is a description of each component of the Company's operating netback and how it is calculated. Oil and gas sales, net of purchases, is a non-IFRS financial measure that is calculated using oil and gas sales less the cost of volumes purchased from third parties including its transportation and refining costs. Oil and gas sales, net of purchases per boe, is a non-IFRS ratio that is calculated using oil and gas sales, net of purchases, divided by the total sales volumes, net of purchases. A reconciliation of this calculation is provided below:

Non-IFRS Ratios

Realized oil price, net of purchases, and realized gas price per boe

Realized oil price, net of purchases, and realized gas price per boe are both non-IFRS ratios. Realized oil price, net of purchases, per boe is calculated using oil sales net of purchases, divided by total sales volumes, net of purchases. Realized gas price is calculated using sales from gas production divided by the conventional natural gas sales volumes.

Net sales realized price

Net sales realized price is a non-IFRS ratio that is calculated using net sales (including oil and gas sales net of purchases, realized gains and losses from oil risk management contracts and less royalties). Net sales realized price per boe is a non-IFRS ratio which is calculated dividing each component by total sales volumes, net of purchases. A reconciliation of this calculation is provided below:

Purchase crude net margin

Purchase crude net margin is a non-IFRS financial measure that is calculated using the purchased crude oil and products sales, less the cost of those volumes purchased from third parties including its transportation and refining costs. Purchase crude net margin per boe is a non-IFRS ratio that is calculated using the Purchase crude net margin, divided by the total sales volumes, net of purchases. A reconciliation of this calculation is provided below:

Production costs (excluding energy cost), net of realized FX hedge impact, and production cost (excluding energy cost), net of realized FX hedge impact per boe

Production costs (excluding energy cost), net of realized FX hedge impact is a non-IFRS financial measure that mainly includes lifting costs, activities developed in the blocks, processes to put the crude oil and gas in sales condition and the realized gain or loss on foreign exchange risk management contracts attributable to production costs. Production cost, net of realized FX hedge impact per boe is a non-IFRS ratio that is calculated using production cost (excluding energy cost), net of realized FX hedge impact divided by production (before royalties). A reconciliation of this calculation is provided below:

Energy costs, net of realized FX hedge impact, and production cost, net of realized FX hedge impact per boe

Energy costs, net of realized FX hedge impact is a non-IFRS financial measure that describes the electricity consumption and the costs of localized energy generation and the realized gain or loss on foreign exchange risk management contracts attributable to energy costs. Energy cost, net of realized FX hedge impact per boe is a non-IFRS ratio that is calculated using energy cost, net of realized FX hedge impact divided by production (before royalties). A reconciliation of this calculation is provided below:

Transportation costs, net of realized FX hedge impact, and transportation costs, net of realized FX hedge impact per boe

Transportation costs, net of realized FX hedge impact is a non-IFRS financial measure, that includes all commercial and logistics costs associated with the sale of produced crude oil and gas such as trucking and pipeline, and the realized gain or loss on foreign exchange risk management contracts attributable to transportation costs. Transportation cost, net of realized FX hedge impact per boe is a non-IFRS ratio that is calculated using transportation cost, net of realized FX hedge impact divided by net production after royalties. A reconciliation of this calculation is provided below:

Supplementary Financial Measures

Royalties per boe

Royalties includes royalties and amounts paid to previous owners of certain blocks in Colombia and cash payments for PAP. Royalties per boe is a supplementary financial measure that is calculated using the royalties divided by total sales volumes, net of purchases.

Capital Management Measures

Restricted cash short- and long-term

Restricted cash (short- and long-term) is a capital management measure, that sums the short-term portion and long-term portion of the cash that the Company has in term deposits that have been escrowed to cover future commitments and future abandonment obligations, or insurance collateral for certain contingencies and other matters that are not available for immediate disbursement.

Total cash

Total cash is a capital management measure to describe the total cash and cash equivalents restricted and unrestricted available, is comprised by the cash and cash equivalents and the restricted cash short and long-term.

Total debt and lease liabilities

Total debt and lease liabilities are capital management measures to describe the total financial liabilities of the Company and is comprised of the debt of the 2028 Unsecured Notes, loans, and liabilities from leases of various properties, power generation supply, vehicles and other assets.
