Non-GAAP financial measure. All reconciling items are presented on a before-tax basis and adjusted for income taxes in the income tax recovery on adjusted operating earnings adjustments line. See the Non GAAP Financial Measures section of this news release.

	·	Suncor’s adjusted operating earnings of $1.817 billion ($1.41 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024 were comparable to $1.809 billion ($1.36 per common share) in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher Oil Sands sales volumes and refinery production in Refining and Marketing (R&M), partially offset by lower refined product realizations, lower average Oil Sands price realizations and increased Oil Sands royalties.
	·	Suncor’s net earnings were $1.610 billion ($1.25 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $2.052 billion ($1.54 per common share) in the prior year quarter. In addition to the factors impacting adjusted operating earnings, net earnings for the first quarter of 2024 and the prior year quarter were impacted by the reconciling items shown in the table above.

	·	Adjusted funds from operations were $3.169 billion ($2.46 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $3.002 billion ($2.26 per common share) in the prior year quarter, and were influenced by the same factors impacting adjusted operating earnings.
	·	Cash flow provided by operating activities, which includes changes in non-cash working capital, was $2.787 billion ($2.16 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $1.039 billion ($0.78 per common share) in the prior year quarter.
	·	Suncor’s total operating, selling and general (OS&G) expenses were $3.440 billion in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $3.424 billion in the prior year quarter, with the increase primarily due to the company’s increased working interest in Fort Hills and higher share-based compensation expenses, offset by lower commodity costs, decreased maintenance costs in the current quarter and the sale of the company’s U.K. E&P portfolio.
	·	As at March 31, 2024, Suncor’s net debt was $13.485 billion, a decrease of $193 million compared to December 31, 2023, and $2.229 billion compared to March 31, 2023.

	·	Total Oil Sands bitumen production increased to 932,100 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 811,300 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher absolute bitumen production at Fort Hills, in addition to the company’s increased working interest, and higher bitumen production at Oil Sands operations including record Firebag production.
	·	The company’s net synthetic crude oil (SCO) production was 545,000 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 497,800 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, with the current quarter reflecting strong asset performance at Oil Sands Base and the prior year quarter reflecting the impact of unplanned maintenance. Benefiting from Suncor’s regional asset connectivity and yield uplift from Fort Hills bitumen feedstock, Oil Sands Base upgrader utilization was a record 107% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 95% in the prior year quarter, and Syncrude upgrader utilization was 96% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 90% in the prior year quarter.
	·	Inter-asset transfers were 67,800 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, demonstrating increased integration within Suncor’s regional Oil Sands assets. The increase was primarily driven by 41,800 bbls/d of bitumen transferred from Fort Hills to upgrading at Oil Sands Base and 16,100 bbls/d of In Situ bitumen transferred to Syncrude.
	·	The company’s saleable non-upgraded bitumen production increased to 240,000 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 177,300 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, reflecting the higher absolute bitumen production noted above.
	·	E&P production during the first quarter of 2024 decreased compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the divestment of the company’s U.K. portfolio and the absence of production from White Rose, partially offset by the addition of production from Terra Nova as the ramp up of the asset progresses.

	·	Refinery crude throughput was 455,300 bbls/d and refinery utilization was 98% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 367,700 bbls/d and 79% in the prior year quarter, reflecting strong utilizations at all refineries in the current quarter and the impact of restart activities at the company’s Commerce City refinery in the prior year quarter following its weather-related outage.
	·	Refined product sales were a record 581,000 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 514,800 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, with the increase due to strong refinery production and the company leveraging its extensive domestic sales network and export channels in the current quarter, as well as the impacts of restart activities at the company’s Commerce City refinery in the prior year quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial measures in this news release – namely adjusted funds from operations, adjusted operating earnings, free funds flow and net debt, and related per share or per barrel amounts – are not prescribed by GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are included because management uses the information to analyze business performance, leverage and liquidity, as applicable, and it may be useful to investors on the same basis. These non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Therefore, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise indicated, these non-GAAP financial measures are calculated and disclosed on a consistent basis from period to period. Specific adjusting items may only be relevant in certain periods.

Adjusted Operating Earnings

Adjusted operating earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts net earnings for significant items that are not indicative of operating performance. Management uses adjusted operating earnings to evaluate operating performance because management believes it provides better comparability between periods. Adjusted operating earnings are reconciled to net earnings in the news release above.

Adjusted Funds From (Used In) Operations

Adjusted funds from (used in) operations is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts a GAAP measure – cash flow provided by operating activities – for changes in non-cash working capital, which management uses to analyze operating performance and liquidity. Changes to non-cash working capital can be impacted by, among other factors, commodity price volatility, the timing of offshore feedstock purchases and payments for commodity and income taxes, the timing of cash flows related to accounts receivable and accounts payable, and changes in inventory, which management believe reduces comparability between periods.

Free Funds Flow

Free funds flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by taking adjusted funds from operations and subtracting capital expenditures, including capitalized interest. Free funds flow reflects cash available for increasing distributions to shareholders and reducing debt. Management uses free funds flow to measure the capacity of the company to increase returns to shareholders and to grow Suncor’s business.

Net Debt and Total Debt

Net debt and total debt are non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to analyze the financial condition of the company. Total debt includes short-term debt, current portion of long-term debt, current portion of long-term lease liabilities, long-term debt and long-term lease liabilities (all of which are GAAP measures). Net debt is equal to total debt less cash and cash equivalents (a GAAP measure).

•

Suncor’s adjusted operating earnings of $1.817 billion ($1.41 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024 were comparable to $1.809 billion ($1.36 per common share) in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher Oil Sands sales volumes and refinery production in Refining and Marketing (R&M), partially offset by lower refined product realizations, lower average Oil Sands price realizations and increased Oil Sands royalties.

•

Suncor’s net earnings were $1.610 billion ($1.25 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $2.052 billion ($1.54 per common share) in the prior year quarter. In addition to the factors impacting adjusted operating earnings, net earnings for the first quarter of 2024 and the prior year quarter were impacted by the reconciling items shown in the table above.

•

Adjusted funds from operations were $3.169 billion ($2.46 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $3.002 billion ($2.26 per common share) in the prior year quarter, and were influenced by the same factors impacting adjusted operating earnings.

•

Suncor’s total operating, selling and general (OS&G) expenses were $3.440 billion in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $3.424 billion in the prior year quarter, with the increase primarily due to the company’s increased working interest in Fort Hills and higher share-based compensation expenses, offset by lower commodity costs, decreased maintenance costs in the current quarter and the sale of the company’s U.K. E&P portfolio.

•

As at March 31, 2024, Suncor’s net debt was $13.485 billion, a decrease of $193 million compared to December 31, 2023, and $2.229 billion compared to March 31, 2023.

•

Total Oil Sands bitumen production increased to 932,100 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 811,300 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher absolute bitumen production at Fort Hills, in addition to the company’s increased working interest, and higher bitumen production at Oil Sands operations including record Firebag production.

•

The company’s net synthetic crude oil (SCO) production was 545,000 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 497,800 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, with the current quarter reflecting strong asset performance at Oil Sands Base and the prior year quarter reflecting the impact of unplanned maintenance. Benefiting from Suncor’s regional asset connectivity and yield uplift from Fort Hills bitumen feedstock, Oil Sands Base upgrader utilization was a record 107% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 95% in the prior year quarter, and Syncrude upgrader utilization was 96% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 90% in the prior year quarter.

•

Inter-asset transfers were 67,800 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, demonstrating increased integration within Suncor’s regional Oil Sands assets. The increase was primarily driven by 41,800 bbls/d of bitumen transferred from Fort Hills to upgrading at Oil Sands Base and 16,100 bbls/d of In Situ bitumen transferred to Syncrude.

•

The company’s saleable non-upgraded bitumen production increased to 240,000 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 177,300 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, reflecting the higher absolute bitumen production noted above.

•

E&P production during the first quarter of 2024 decreased compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the divestment of the company’s U.K. portfolio and the absence of production from White Rose, partially offset by the addition of production from Terra Nova as the ramp up of the asset progresses.

•

Refinery crude throughput was 455,300 bbls/d and refinery utilization was 98% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 367,700 bbls/d and 79% in the prior year quarter, reflecting strong utilizations at all refineries in the current quarter and the impact of restart activities at the company’s Commerce City refinery in the prior year quarter following its weather-related outage.

•

Refined product sales were a record 581,000 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 514,800 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, with the increase due to strong refinery production and the company leveraging its extensive domestic sales network and export channels in the current quarter, as well as the impacts of restart activities at the company’s Commerce City refinery in the prior year quarter.

For an explanation of this bridge analysis, see the Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Advisory section of this MD&A.

Adjusted Funds from Operations and Cash Flow Provided by Operating Activities

Cash flow provided by operating activities, which includes changes in non-cash working capital, was $2.787 billion ($2.16 per common share) in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $1.039 billion ($0.78 per common share) in the prior year quarter. In addition to the factors impacting adjusted funds from operations, cash flow provided by operating activities was impacted by a smaller use of cash associated with the company’s working capital balances in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. The use of cash in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to higher accounts receivable balances, as a result of an increase in sales volumes and an increase in benchmark commodity prices during the quarter, partially offset by a decrease in tax receivable balances.

In the first quarter of 2024, share-based compensation expense of $159 million included $51 million recorded in the Oil Sands segment, $5 million recorded in the E&P segment, $25 million recorded in the R&M segment and $78 million recorded in the Corporate and Eliminations segment. In the first quarter of 2023, share-based compensation expense of $101 million included $39 million recorded in the Oil Sands segment, $2 million recorded in the E&P segment, $16 million recorded in the R&M segment and $44 million recorded in the Corporate and Eliminations segment. In the first quarter of 2023, other primarily includes costs associated with investments in the company’s digital transformation and spend related to low-carbon fuel development projects.

The increase in OS&G expenses in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to the company’s increased working interest in Fort Hills and higher share-based compensation expenses, offset by lower commodity costs, decreased maintenance costs in the current quarter and the sale of the company’s U.K. E&P portfolio. The company’s exposure to commodity costs is partially mitigated by revenue from power sales that are recorded in operating revenues.

Oil Sands segment adjusted operating earnings were $1.365 billion in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $1.490 billion in the prior year quarter, with the decrease primarily due to higher royalties as a result of higher bitumen pricing, and lower SCO realizations, partially offset by increased sales volumes and higher heavy crude oil realizations.

Oil Sands price realizations decreased in the first quarter of 2024 from the prior year quarter, primarily due to weaker SYN-WTI differentials in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter, partially offset by narrower heavy crude oil differentials.

Royalties

Royalties for the Oil Sands segment increased in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to improved bitumen pricing and higher bitumen production volumes.

Expenses and Other Factors

Total Oil Sands operating expenses increased in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to the company’s increased working interest as well as higher mining activity and production at Fort Hills, partially offset by lower commodity costs and lower maintenance costs in the current quarter. See the Cash Operating Costs section below for additional details regarding cash operating costs and a breakdown of non-production costs by asset.

Oil Sands operations cash operating costs per barrel(1) decreased to $26.85 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $29.60 in the prior year quarter, primarily due to increased production, lower natural gas prices and other commodity costs, partially offset by a higher proportion of Fort Hills bitumen being directed to upgrading at Oil Sands Base and a decrease in excess power revenues resulting from lower power prices.

Fort Hills cash operating costs per barrel(1) decreased to $32.85 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $41.40 in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher absolute production volumes, partially offset by increased mining activity associated with the mine improvement plan.

Syncrude cash operating costs per barrel(1) decreased to $35.70 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $40.25 in the prior year quarter, primarily due to decreased maintenance costs in the current quarter and higher production volumes.

Adjusted operating earnings for the E&P segment in the first quarter of 2024 were $274 million, compared to $375 million in the prior year quarter, with the decrease primarily due to lower sales volumes at E&P International, as a result of the divestment of the company’s U.K. portfolio in the second quarter of 2023, and increased depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A), partially offset by higher realized crude prices and increased sales volumes at E&P Canada.

Production volumes for E&P were 50,300 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 67,000 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, with the decrease primarily due to the divestment of the company’s U.K. portfolio and the absence of production from White Rose, partially offset by the addition of production from Terra Nova as the ramp-up of the asset progresses.

Total E&P sales volumes were 63,300 bbls/d in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 68,700 bbls/d in the prior year quarter, primarily due to the same factors that impacted production volumes, as well as a larger draw of inventory in E&P Canada in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year quarter, associated with the timing of cargo sales.

R&M adjusted operating earnings in the first quarter of 2024 were $1.118 billion, compared to $998 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in adjusted operating earnings was primarily due to increased refinery production and a first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory valuation gain in the first quarter of 2024, compared to a loss in the prior year quarter, partially offset by lower benchmark crack spreads.

Refining and Marketing Gross Margins(1)

Refining and marketing gross margins were influenced by the following:

•

On a LIFO(2) basis, Suncor’s refining and marketing gross margin decreased to $45.75/bbl in the first quarter of 2024, from $59.15/bbl in the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower benchmark crack spreads combined with lower location differentials associated with the company’s regional markets and an increased proportion of export sales volumes, partially offset by a favourable crude slate. In the first quarter of 2024, on a LIFO basis, Suncor’s refining and marketing gross margin represents a 94% margin capture compared to Suncor’s 5-2-2-1 index.

•

On a FIFO basis, Suncor’s refining and marketing gross margin decreased to $46.65/bbl in the first quarter of 2024, from $55.45/bbl in the prior year quarter, due to the same factors discussed above, in addition to FIFO inventory valuation impacts. In the first quarter of 2024, the FIFO method of inventory valuation, relative to an estimated LIFO(2) accounting method, resulted in a gain of $40 million. In the prior year quarter FIFO resulted in a loss of $131 million, for a favourable quarter-over-quarter impact of $171 million.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Expenses and Other Factors

Operating and transportation expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to decreased maintenance costs in the current quarter, as a result of unplanned maintenance at the company’s Commerce City refinery in the prior year quarter, and lower commodity input costs.

Refining operating expense per barrel(1) decreased to $7.15 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $8.15 in the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher refinery production.

Planned Maintenance

Planned turnaround maintenance has commenced at the company’s Montreal and Sarnia refineries, with maintenance at both refineries expected to be completed within the second quarter of 2024. The impact of these maintenance events has been reflected in the company’s 2024 guidance.

Corporate incurred an adjusted operating loss of $196 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $437 million in the prior year quarter. The decreased loss was primarily attributable to an operational foreign exchange gain in the first quarter of 2024, compared to a loss in the prior year quarter, and decreased spend in digital technologies. This was partially offset by an increase in share-based compensation expense in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year quarter. Suncor capitalized $74 million of its borrowing costs in the first quarter of 2024 as part of the cost of major development assets and construction projects in progress, compared to $58 million in the prior year quarter.

Eliminations reflect the deferral or realization of profit or loss on crude oil sales from Oil Sands to Suncor’s refineries. Consolidated profits and losses are only realized when the refined products produced from internal purchases of crude feedstock have been sold to third parties. During the first quarter of 2024, the company eliminated $123 million of intersegment profit, compared to a realization of $7 million in the prior year quarter. The deferral of intersegment profit in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by a strengthening in benchmark pricing at the end of the quarter.

Corporate and Eliminations adjusted funds used in operations were $398 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $533 million in the first quarter of 2023, and were influenced by the same factors impacting adjusted operating loss, excluding the impact of share-based compensation expense.

Excludes capital expenditures related to assets previously held for sale of nil in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $42 million in the first quarter of 2023.

During the first quarter of 2024, the company incurred $1.237 billion of capital expenditures, excluding capitalized interest, compared to $1.028 billion in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by increased economic investments at Oil Sands Base, related to the Upgrader 1 coke drum replacement and the new cogeneration facility, and at Fort Hills related to the second North Pit mine opening and haul truck purchases.

Activity in the first quarter of 2024 is summarized by business unit below.

Oil Sands

Oil Sands Base capital expenditures were $453 million in the first quarter of 2024 and were directed towards economic investment expenditures related to the Upgrader 1 coke drum replacement and progressing the investment in low-carbon power by replacing the coke-fired boilers with a new cogeneration facility. Asset sustainment and maintenance capital expenditures were primarily directed towards mine equipment purchases, planned turnaround and other maintenance projects.

In Situ capital expenditures were $119 million in the first quarter of 2024 and were primarily directed towards economic investment activities focused on the ongoing design and construction of well pads to develop additional reserves that are intended to maintain existing production levels.

Fort Hills capital expenditures were $144 million in the first quarter of 2024 and were directed towards economic investment expenditures related to the second North Pit mine opening and haul truck purchases. Asset sustainment and maintenance capital expenditures were primarily directed towards the development, progression and execution of mining and tailings management projects.

Syncrude capital expenditures were $213 million in the first quarter of 2024 and were primarily directed towards significant planned turnaround activities that commenced in the first quarter, tailings development and mine equipment replacements. Economic investment expenditures were directed towards progressing the Mildred Lake West Extension mining project.

Exploration and Production

E&P capital and exploration expenditures were $135 million in the first quarter of 2024 and were focused on economic investment projects, primarily the West White Rose Project and the SeaRose FPSO Asset Life Extension Project.

Refining and Marketing

R&M capital expenditures were $167 million in the first quarter of 2024 and were primarily related to the company’s planned maintenance program.

Corporate and Eliminations

Corporate and Eliminations capital expenditures were $6 million in the first quarter of 2024 and were primarily directed towards investment in digital technologies.

For the twelve months ended March 31, 2024, there were no impairments or impairment reversals. As a result, ROCE excluding impairments was equal to ROCE. ROCE would have been 21.6% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2023, excluding the impact of the impairment reversal of $715 million ($542 million after-tax) and impairment of $70 million ($47 million after-tax) in the second quarter of 2022 and the impact of the impairment of $3.397 billion ($2.586 billion after-tax) in the third quarter of 2022.

Capital Resources

Suncor’s capital resources consist primarily of cash flow provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents, and available lines of credit. Suncor’s management believes the company will have the capital resources required to fund its planned 2024 capital spending program of $6.3 billion to $6.5 billion, and to meet current and future working capital requirements, through cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flow provided by operating activities, available committed credit facilities, issuing commercial paper and, if needed, accessing capital markets. The company’s cash flow provided by operating activities depends on several factors, including commodity prices, production, sales volumes, refining and marketing gross margins, operating expenses, taxes, royalties and foreign exchange rates.

The company has invested cash in short-term financial instruments that are presented as cash and cash equivalents. The objectives of the company’s short-term investment portfolio are to ensure the preservation of capital, maintain adequate liquidity to meet Suncor’s cash flow requirements and deliver competitive returns derived from the quality and diversification of investments within acceptable risk parameters. The maximum weighted average term to maturity of the short-term investment portfolio is not expected to exceed six months, and all investments are with counterparties with investment-grade debt ratings.

Available Sources of Liquidity

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents increased to $2.464 billion from $1.729 billion as at December 31, 2023. The source of cash in the first quarter of 2024 was due to the company’s cash flow provided by operating activities and an increase in short-term indebtedness exceeding the company’s capital and exploration expenditures, the payment of dividends and the repurchase of Suncor’s common shares under its normal course issuer bid (NCIB).

As at March 31, 2024, the company had no short-term investments presented as cash and cash equivalents.

As at March 31, 2024, available credit facilities for liquidity purposes were $4.796 billion, compared to $4.957 billion as at December 31, 2023. The decrease in available credit facilities was due to an increase in short-term indebtedness.

Financing Activities

Management of debt levels and liquidity continues to be a priority for Suncor given the company’s long-term plans and the expected future volatility in the business environment. Suncor believes a phased and flexible approach to existing and future projects should help the company maintain its ability to manage project costs and debt levels.

Total Debt to Total Debt Plus Shareholders’ Equity

Suncor is subject to financial and operating covenants related to its bank debt and public market debt. Failure to meet the terms of one or more of these covenants may constitute an “event of default” as defined in the respective debt agreements, potentially resulting in accelerated repayment of one or more of the debt obligations. The company is in compliance with its financial covenant that requires total debt to not exceed 65% of its total debt plus shareholders’ equity. As at March 31, 2024, total debt to total debt plus shareholders’ equity was 26.5% (December 31, 2023 – 26.3%). The company also continues to be in compliance with all operating covenants under its debt agreements.

As at March 31, 2024, Suncor’s net debt was $13.485 billion, compared to $13.678 billion at December 31, 2023. The decrease in net debt was primarily due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by the factors discussed above.

Share Repurchases

In the first quarter of 2024, the TSX accepted a notice filed by Suncor to renew its NCIB to purchase the company’s common shares through the facilities of the TSX, NYSE and/or alternative trading systems. The notice provides that, beginning February 26, 2024, and ending February 25, 2025, Suncor may purchase for cancellation up to 128,700,000 common shares, which is equal to approximately 10% of Suncor’s public float as of February 12, 2024. As at February 12, 2024, Suncor had 1,287,461,183 common shares issued and outstanding.

Between February 26, 2024, and May 6, 2024, pursuant to Suncor’s NCIB, Suncor repurchased 7,478,390 common shares on the open market, representing the equivalent of 0.6% of its common shares as at February 12, 2024, for $379 million, at a weighted average price of $50.71 per share.

The actual number of common shares that may be purchased under the NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by Suncor. The company believes that, depending on the trading price of its common shares and other relevant factors, repurchasing its own shares represents an attractive investment opportunity and is in the best interests of the company and its shareholders. The company does not expect the decision to allocate cash to repurchase shares will affect its long-term strategy.

8. OTHER ITEMS

Accounting Policies and New IFRS Standards

Suncor’s significant accounting policies and a summary of recently announced accounting standards are described in the Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates section of Suncor’s 2023 annual MD&A and in notes 3 and 5 of Suncor’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, gains and losses, and disclosures of contingencies. These estimates and assumptions are subject to change based on experience and new information. Critical accounting estimates are those that require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made. Critical accounting estimates are also those estimates that, where a different estimate could have been used or where changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material impact on the company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition or financial performance. Critical accounting estimates and judgments are reviewed annually by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. A detailed description of Suncor’s critical accounting estimates is provided in note 4 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in the Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates section of Suncor’s 2023 annual MD&A.

Financial Instruments

Suncor periodically enters into derivative contracts such as forwards, futures, swaps, options and costless collars to manage exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and foreign exchange rates, and to optimize the company’s position with respect to interest payments. For more information on Suncor’s financial instruments and the related financial risk factors, see note 27 of the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, note 10 to the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and the Financial Condition and Liquidity section of the 2023 annual MD&A.

Control Environment

Based on their evaluation as at March 31, 2024, Suncor’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in reports that are filed or submitted to Canadian and U.S. securities authorities is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Canadian and U.S. securities laws. In addition, as at March 31, 2024, there were no changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management will continue to periodically evaluate the company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and will make any modifications as deemed necessary from time to time.

Based on their inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and even those controls determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Corporate Guidance

There have been no changes to Suncor’s previously announced 2024 corporate guidance ranges (which were originally disclosed via press release on December 5, 2023), a copy of which is also available on www.sedarplus.ca.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

9. NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES ADVISORY

Certain financial measures in this MD&A – namely adjusted operating earnings (loss), adjusted funds from (used in) operations, measures contained in ROCE and ROCE excluding impairments and impairment reversals, price realizations, free funds flow, Oil Sands operations cash operating costs, Fort Hills cash operating costs, Syncrude cash operating costs, refining and marketing gross margin, refining operating expense, net debt, total debt, LIFO inventory valuation methodology and related per share or per barrel amounts or metrics that contain such measures – are not prescribed by GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are included because management uses the information to analyze business performance, leverage and liquidity, as applicable, and it may be useful to investors on the same basis. These non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Therefore, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise indicated, these non-GAAP financial measures are calculated and disclosed on a consistent basis from period to period. Specific adjusting items may only be relevant in certain periods.

Adjusted Operating Earnings (Loss)

Adjusted operating earnings (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts net earnings (loss) for significant items that are not indicative of operating performance. Management uses adjusted operating earnings (loss) to evaluate operating performance because management believes it provides better comparability between periods. Adjusted operating earnings (loss) is reconciled to net earnings (loss) in the Consolidated Financial and Operating Information and Segment Results and Analysis sections of this MD&A.

Bridge Analyses of Adjusted Operating Earnings (Loss)

Within this MD&A, the company presents a chart that illustrates the change in adjusted operating earnings (loss) from the comparative period through key variance factors. These factors are analyzed in the Adjusted Operating Earnings (Loss) narratives following the bridge analysis in this MD&A. This bridge analysis is presented because management uses this presentation to evaluate performance. All reconciling items are presented on a before-tax basis and adjusted for income taxes in the Income Tax bridge factor.

•

The factor for Sales Volumes and Mix is calculated based on sales volumes and mix for the Oil Sands and E&P segments and refinery production volumes for the R&M segment.

•

The factor for Price, Margin and Other Revenue includes upstream price realizations before royalties, except for the company’s Libya operations, which is net of royalties, and realized commodity risk management activities. Also included are refining and marketing gross margins, other operating revenue and the net impacts of sales and purchases of third-party crude, including product purchased for use as diluent in the company’s Oil Sands operations and subsequently sold as part of diluted bitumen.

•

The factor for Royalties excludes the impact of the company’s Libya operations, as royalties in Libya are included in Price, Margin and Other Revenue as described above.

•

The factor for Inventory Valuation is comprised of changes in the FIFO inventory valuation and the realized portion of commodity risk management activities reported in the R&M segment, as well as the impact of the deferral or realization of profit or loss on crude oil sales from the Oil Sands segment to Suncor’s refineries reported in the Corporate and Eliminations segment.

•

The factor for Operating and Transportation Expense includes project startup costs, OS&G expense and transportation expense.

•

The factor for Financing Expense and Other includes financing expenses, other income, operational foreign exchange gains and losses and changes in gains and losses on disposal of assets that are not adjusted operating earnings (loss) adjustments.

•

The factor for DD&A and Exploration Expense includes depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, and exploration expense.

•

The factor for Income Tax includes the company’s current and deferred income tax expense on adjusted operating earnings, changes in statutory income tax rates and other income tax adjustments.

Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) and ROCE Excluding Impairments and Impairment Reversals

ROCE is a non-GAAP ratio that management uses to analyze operating performance and the efficiency of Suncor’s capital allocation process. ROCE is calculated using the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted net earnings and average capital employed. Adjusted net earnings are calculated by taking net earnings (loss) and adjusting after-tax amounts for unrealized foreign exchange on U.S. dollar denominated debt and net interest expense. Average capital employed is calculated as a twelve-month average of the capital employed balance at the beginning of the twelve-month period and the month-end capital employed balances throughout the remainder of the twelve-month period. Figures for capital employed at the beginning and end of the twelve-month period are presented to show the changes in the components of the calculation over the twelve-month period.

Oil Sands Operations, Fort Hills and Syncrude Cash Operating Costs

Cash operating costs are calculated by adjusting Oil Sands segment OS&G expense for non-production costs and excess power capacity. Significant non-production costs include, but are not limited to, share-based compensation adjustments, research costs, project startup costs and adjustments to reflect the cost of internal transfers in the receiving asset at the cost of production versus the cost of purchase. Non-production costs at Fort Hills and Syncrude also include, but are not limited to, an adjustment to reflect internally produced diesel from Oil Sands operations at the cost of production. Excess power capacity represents excess power revenue from cogeneration units that is recorded in operating revenues. Oil Sands operations excess power capacity and other also includes, but is not limited to, the natural gas expense recorded as part of a non-monetary arrangement involving a third-party processor. Oil Sands operations, Fort Hills and Syncrude production volumes are gross of internally consumed diesel and feedstock transfers between assets. Oil Sands operations, Fort Hills and Syncrude cash operating costs are reconciled in the Segment Results and Analysis – Oil Sands – Cash Operating Costs section of this MD&A. Management uses cash operating costs to measure operating performance.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Refining and Marketing Gross Margin and Refining Operating Expense

Refining and marketing gross margins and refining operating expense are non-GAAP financial measures. Refining and marketing gross margin, on a FIFO basis, is calculated by adjusting R&M segment operating revenue, other income and purchases of crude oil and products (all of which are GAAP measures) for intersegment marketing fees recorded in intersegment revenues. Refining and marketing gross margin, on a LIFO basis, is further adjusted for the impacts of FIFO inventory valuation recorded in purchases of crude oil and products and risk management activities recorded in other income (loss). Refinery operating expense is calculated by adjusting R&M segment OS&G expense for i) non-refining costs pertaining to the company’s supply, marketing and ethanol businesses; and ii) non-refining costs that management believes do not relate to the production of refined products, including, but not limited to, share-based compensation and enterprise shared service allocations. Management uses refining and marketing gross margin and refining operating expense to measure operating performance on a production barrel basis.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Impact of FIFO Inventory Valuation on Refining and Marketing Net Earnings (Loss)

GAAP requires the use of a FIFO inventory valuation methodology. For Suncor, this results in a disconnect between the sales prices for refined products, which reflect current market conditions, and the amount recorded as the cost of sale for the related refinery feedstock, which reflects market conditions at the time the feedstock was purchased. This lag between purchase and sale can be anywhere from several weeks to several months and is influenced by the time to receive crude after purchase, regional crude inventory levels, the completion of refining processes, transportation time to distribution channels and regional refined product inventory levels.

Suncor prepares and presents an estimate of the impact of using a FIFO inventory valuation methodology compared to a LIFO methodology, because management uses the information to analyze operating performance and compare itself against refining peers that are permitted to use LIFO inventory valuation under U.S. GAAP.

The company’s estimate is not derived from a standardized calculation and, therefore, may not be directly comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP or U.S. GAAP.

Price Realizations

Price realizations are a non-GAAP measure used by management to measure profitability. Oil Sands price realizations are presented on a crude product basis and are derived from the Oil Sands segmented statement of net earnings (loss), after adjusting for items not directly attributable to the revenues associated with production. E&P price realizations are presented on an asset location basis and are derived from the E&P segmented statement of net earnings (loss), after adjusting for other E&P assets, such as Libya, for which price realizations are not provided.

Forward-Looking Statements

This MD&A contains certain forward-looking statements and other information based on Suncor’s current expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions that were made by the company in light of information available at the time the statement was made and consider Suncor’s experience and its perception of historical trends, including expectations and assumptions concerning: the accuracy of reserves estimates; commodity prices and interest and foreign exchange rates; the performance of assets and equipment; uncertainty related to geopolitical conflict; capital efficiencies and cost savings; applicable laws and government policies; future production rates; the sufficiency of budgeted capital expenditures in carrying out planned activities; the availability and cost of labour, services and infrastructure; the satisfaction by third parties of their obligations to Suncor; the development and execution of projects; and the receipt, in a timely manner, of regulatory and third-party approvals. All statements and information that address expectations or projections about the future, and other statements and information about Suncor’s strategy for growth, expected and future expenditures or investment decisions, commodity prices, costs, schedules, production volumes, operating and financial results, future financing and capital activities, and the expected impact of future commitments are forward-looking statements. Some of the forward-looking statements may be identified by words like “expects”, “anticipates”, “will”, “estimates”, “plans”, “scheduled”, “intends”, “believes”, “projects”, “indicates”, “could”, “focus”, “vision”, “goal”, “outlook”, “proposed”, “target”, “objective”, “continue”, “should”, “may”, “future”, “potential”, “opportunity”, “would”, “priority”, “strategy” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements in this MD&A include references to:

•

Suncor’s strategy, focus, goals and priorities and the expected benefits therefrom;

•

Suncor’s expectation that its indicative 5-2-2-1 index will continue to be an appropriate measure of Suncor’s actual results;

•

expectations regarding planned maintenance events, specifically the expectation that the Syncrude turnaround and turnaround maintenance at the company’s Montreal and Sarnia refineries will be completed in the second quarter of 2024, and that significant planned turnaround activities at Oil Sands Base Upgrader 1 will be conducted in the second quarter of 2024;

•

Suncor’s expectation that In Situ design and construction of new well pads will maintain existing production levels;

•

statements regarding Suncor’s planned 2024 capital spending program of $6.3 billion to $6.5 billion, including Suncor’s management’s belief that it will have the capital resources to fund it and to meet current and future working capital requirements through cash and cash equivalents balances, cash flow provided by operating activities, available committed credit facilities, issuing commercial paper and, if needed, accessing capital markets;

•

the objectives of Suncor’s short-term investment portfolio and Suncor’s expectation that the maximum weighted average term to maturity of the short-term investment portfolio will not exceed six months, and that all investments will be with counterparties with investment-grade debt ratings;

•

the company’s priority regarding the management of debt levels and liquidity given the company’s long-term plans and future expected volatility in the pricing environment, and Suncor’s belief that a phased and flexible approach to existing and future projects should help the company manage project costs and debt levels;

•

the company’s belief that it does not have any guarantees or off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on the company’s financial performance or financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures; and

•

statements about the NCIB, including the amount, timing and manner of purchases under the NCIB, that depending on the trading price of its common shares and other relevant factors, repurchasing its common shares represents an attractive investment opportunity and is in the best interest of the company and its shareholders and the expectation that the decision to allocate cash to repurchase shares will not affect its long-term strategy.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, some that are similar to other oil and gas companies and some that are unique to Suncor. Suncor’s actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by its forward-looking statements, so readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on them. The financial and operating performance of the company’s reportable operating segments, specifically Oil Sands, E&P and R&M, may be affected by a number of factors.

Factors that affect Suncor’s Oil Sands segment include, but are not limited to, volatility in the prices for crude oil and other production, and the related impacts of fluctuating light/heavy and sweet/sour crude oil differentials; changes in the demand for refinery feedstock and diesel fuel, including the possibility that refiners that process the company’s proprietary production will be closed, experience equipment failure or other accidents; Suncor’s ability to operate its Oil Sands facilities reliably in order to meet production targets; the output of newly commissioned facilities, the performance of which may be difficult to predict during initial operations; Suncor’s dependence on pipeline capacity and other logistical constraints, which may affect the company’s ability to distribute products to market and which may cause the company to delay or cancel planned growth projects in the event of insufficient takeaway capacity; Suncor’s ability to finance Oil Sands economic investment and asset sustainment and maintenance capital expenditures; the availability of bitumen feedstock for upgrading operations, which can be negatively affected by poor ore grade quality, unplanned mine equipment and extraction plant maintenance, tailings storage, and In Situ reservoir and equipment performance, or the unavailability of third-party bitumen; changes in operating costs, including the cost of labour, natural gas and other energy sources used in oil sands processes; and

the company’s ability to complete projects, including planned maintenance events, both on time and on budget, which could be impacted by competition from other projects (including other oil sands projects) for goods and services and demands on infrastructure in Alberta’s Wood Buffalo region and the surrounding area (including housing, roads and schools).

Factors that affect Suncor’s E&P segment include, but are not limited to, volatility in crude oil and natural gas prices; operational risks and uncertainties associated with oil and gas activities, including unexpected formations or pressures, premature declines of reservoirs, fires, blow-outs, equipment failures and other accidents, uncontrollable flows of crude oil, natural gas or well fluids, and pollution and other environmental risks; adverse weather conditions, which could disrupt output from producing assets or impact drilling programs, resulting in increased costs and/or delays in bringing on new production; political, economic and socioeconomic risks associated with Suncor’s foreign operations, including the unpredictability of operating in Libya due to ongoing political unrest; and market demand for mineral rights and producing properties, potentially leading to losses on disposition or increased property acquisition costs.

Factors that affect the R&M segment include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in demand and supply for refined products that impact the company’s margins; market competition, including potential new market entrants; the company’s ability to reliably operate refining and marketing facilities to meet production or sales targets; and risks and uncertainties affecting construction or planned maintenance schedules, including the availability of labour and other impacts of competing projects drawing on the same resources during the same time period.

Additional risks, uncertainties and other factors that could influence the financial and operating performance of all of Suncor’s operating segments and activities include, but are not limited to, changes in general economic, market and business conditions, such as commodity prices, interest rates and currency exchange rates (including as a result of demand and supply effects resulting from the actions of OPEC+); fluctuations in supply and demand for Suncor’s products; the successful and timely implementation of capital projects, including growth projects and regulatory projects; risks associated with the development and execution of Suncor’s major projects and the commissioning and integration of new facilities; the possibility that completed maintenance activities may not improve operational performance or the output of related facilities; the risk that projects and initiatives intended to achieve cash flow growth and/or reductions in operating costs may not achieve the expected results in the time anticipated or at all; competitive actions of other companies, including increased competition from other oil and gas companies or from companies that provide alternative sources of energy; labour and material shortages; actions by government authorities, including the imposition or reassessment of, or changes to, taxes, fees, royalties, duties and other government-imposed compliance costs; changes to laws and government policies that could impact the company’s business, including environmental (including climate change), royalty and tax laws and policies; the ability and willingness of parties with whom Suncor has material relationships to perform their obligations to the company; the unavailability of, or outages to, third-party infrastructure that could cause disruptions to production or prevent the company from being able to transport its products; the occurrence of a protracted operational outage, a major safety or environmental incident, or unexpected events such as fires (including forest fires), equipment failures and other similar events affecting Suncor or other parties whose operations or assets directly or indirectly affect Suncor; the potential for security breaches of Suncor’s information technology and infrastructure by malicious persons or entities, and the unavailability or failure of such systems to perform as anticipated as a result of such breaches; security threats and terrorist or activist activities; the risk that competing business objectives may exceed Suncor’s capacity to adopt and implement change; risks and uncertainties associated with obtaining regulatory, third-party and stakeholder approvals outside of Suncor’s control for the company’s operations, projects, initiatives and exploration and development activities and the satisfaction of any conditions to approvals; the potential for disruptions to operations and construction projects as a result of Suncor’s relationships with labour unions that represent employees at the company’s facilities; the company’s ability to find new oil and gas reserves that can be developed economically; the accuracy of Suncor’s reserves, resources and future production estimates; market instability affecting Suncor’s ability to borrow in the capital debt markets at acceptable rates or to issue other securities at acceptable prices; the ability to maintain an optimal debt to cash flow ratio; the success of the company’s marketing and logistics activities using derivatives and other financial instruments; the cost of compliance with current and future environmental laws, including climate change laws; risks relating to increased activism and public opposition to fossil fuels and oil sands; risks and uncertainties associated with closing a transaction for the purchase or sale of a business, asset or oil and gas property, including estimates of the final consideration to be paid or received; the ability of counterparties to comply with their obligations in a timely manner; risks associated with joint arrangements in which the company has an interest; risks associated with land claims and Indigenous consultation requirements; the risk that the company may be subject to litigation; the impact of technology and risks associated with developing and implementing new technologies; and the accuracy of cost estimates, some of which are provided at the conceptual or other preliminary stage of projects and prior to commencement or conception of the detailed engineering that is needed to reduce the margin of error and increase the level of accuracy. The foregoing important factors are not exhaustive.

Many of these risk factors and other assumptions related to Suncor’s forward-looking statements are discussed in further detail throughout this MD&A, and in the company’s 2023 annual MD&A, the 2023 AIF and Form 40-F on file with Canadian securities commissions at www.sedarplus.ca and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov. Readers are also referred to the risk factors and assumptions described in other MD&As that Suncor files from time to time with securities regulatory authorities. Copies of these MD&As are available without charge from the company.

The forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are made as of the date of this MD&A. Except as required by applicable securities laws, we assume no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements or the foregoing risks and assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. REPORTING ENTITY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

The address of the company’s registered office is 150 – 6th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 3E3.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of Compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They are condensed as they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the company for the year ended December 31, 2023.

(b) Basis of Measurement

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis except as detailed in the accounting policies disclosed in the company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the company’s functional currency.

(d) Use of Estimates, Assumptions and Judgments

The timely preparation of financial statements requires that management make estimates and assumptions and use judgment. Accordingly, actual results may differ from estimated amounts as future confirming events occur. Significant estimates and judgment used in the preparation of the financial statements are described in the company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

(e) Income Taxes

The company recognizes the impacts of income tax rate changes in earnings in the period that the applicable rate change is enacted or substantively enacted.

3. NEW IFRS STANDARDS

(a) Adoption of New IFRS Standards

In October 2022, the IASB issued Non-current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1). The amendments improved the information an entity provides when its right to defer settlement of a liability for at least twelve months is subject to compliance with covenants. The company adopted the amendments on the effective date January 1, 2024, and there was no material impact to the consolidated financial statements as a result of the initial application.

In September 2022, the IASB issued Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16). The amendments add subsequent measurement requirements for sale and leaseback transactions.

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivative Financial Instruments

(a) Non-Designated Derivative Financial Instruments

The company uses derivative financial instruments, such as physical and financial contracts, to manage certain exposures to fluctuations in interest rates, commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates, as part of its overall risk management program, as well as for trading purposes.

The changes in the fair value of non-designated derivatives are as follows:

($ millions)	Total
Fair value outstanding at December 31, 2023		(20)

Changes in fair value recognized in earnings during the year		(60)

Cash settlements – paid (received) during the year		20
Fair value outstanding at March 31, 2024		(60)

(b) Fair Value Hierarchy

To estimate the fair value of derivatives, the company uses quoted market prices when available, or third-party models and valuation methodologies that utilize observable market data. In addition to market information, the company incorporates transaction-specific details that market participants would utilize in a fair value measurement, including the impact of non-performance risk. However, these fair value estimates may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts that could be realized or settled in a current market transaction. The company characterizes inputs used in determining fair value using a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs depending on the degree to which they are observable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•

Level 1 consists of instruments with a fair value determined by an unadjusted quoted price in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. An active market is characterized by readily and regularly available quoted prices where the prices are representative of actual and regularly occurring market transactions to assure liquidity.

•

Level 2 consists of instruments with a fair value that is determined by quoted prices in an inactive market, prices with observable inputs or prices with insignificant non-observable inputs. The fair value of these positions is determined using observable inputs from exchanges, pricing services, third-party independent broker quotes and published transportation tolls. The observable inputs may be adjusted using certain methods, which include extrapolation over the quoted price term and quotes for comparable assets and liabilities.

44 2024 First Quarter Suncor Energy Inc.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

Level 3 consists of instruments with a fair value that is determined by prices with significant unobservable inputs. As at March 31, 2024, the company does not have any derivative instruments measured at fair value Level 3.

In forming estimates, the company utilizes the most observable inputs available for valuation purposes. If a fair value measurement reflects inputs of different levels within the hierarchy, the measurement is categorized based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents the company’s derivative financial instruments measured at fair value for each hierarchy level as at March 31, 2024:

($ millions)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total Fair Value
Accounts receivable		38		72		—		110

Accounts payable		(140)		(30)		—		(170)
		(102)		42		—		(60)

During the first quarter of 2024, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements.

Non-Derivative Financial Instruments

At March 31, 2024, the carrying value of fixed-term debt accounted for under amortized cost was $11.3 billion (December 31, 2023 – $11.1 billion) and the fair value was $11.1 billion (December 31, 2023 – $11.1 billion). The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on pricing sourced from market data.

11. ASSET TRANSACTIONS AND VALUATIONS

Oil Sands

Fort Hills:

During the first quarter of 2023, the company completed the acquisition of an additional 14.65% working interest in Fort Hills from Teck Resources Limited for $712 million, bringing the company’s working interest in Fort Hills to 68.76%.

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the company completed the acquisition of TotalEnergies Canada, which held the remaining 31.23% working interest in Fort Hills, for $1.468 billion before closing adjustments and other closing costs, making Suncor the sole owner of Fort Hills.

Corporate

Sale of Wind and Solar Assets:

During the first quarter of 2023, the company completed the sale of its wind and solar assets for gross proceeds of $730 million, before closing adjustments and other closing costs, resulting in an after-tax gain on sale of approximately $260 million ($302 million before-tax).

12. PROVISIONS

Suncor’s decommissioning and restoration provision decreased by $561 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate to 5.50% (December 31, 2023 – 5.20%).

13. PENSIONS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the actuarial gain on employee retirement benefit plans was $399 million (net of taxes of $126 million), mainly due to an increase in the discount rate to 4.90% (December 31, 2023 – 4.60%).

Operating Summary Information

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures

Certain financial measures in this Supplemental Financial and Operating Information – namely adjusted operating earnings (loss), adjusted funds from (used in) operations, measures contained in return on capital employed (ROCE) and ROCE excluding impairments and impairment reversals, Oil Sands operations cash operating costs, Fort Hills cash operating costs, Syncrude cash operating costs, refining and marketing gross margin, rack forward gross margin, refining operating expense, rack forward operating expense, net debt, total debt and operating netbacks – are not prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Suncor uses this information to analyze business performance, leverage and liquidity and includes these financial measures because investors may find such measures useful on the same basis. These non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The additional information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted operating earnings (loss), Oil Sands operations cash operating costs, Fort Hills cash operating costs and Syncrude cash operating costs are defined in the Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Advisory section and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Consolidated Financial Information and Segment Results and Analysis sections of each respective Quarterly Report to Shareholders in respect of the relevant quarter (Quarterly Report). Adjusted funds from (used in) operations and measures contained in ROCE and ROCE excluding impairments and impairment reversals, net debt and total debt are defined and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Advisory section of each respective Quarterly Report. Refining and marketing gross margin, rack forward gross margin, refining operating expense and rack forward operating expense are defined in the Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Advisory section and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Quarterly Operating Metrics Reconciliation section of each respective Quarterly Report. Operating netbacks are defined below and are reconciled to GAAP measures in the Quarterly Operating Metrics Reconciliation section of each respective Quarterly Report. The remainder of the non-GAAP financial measures not otherwise mentioned in this paragraph are defined and reconciled in this Quarterly Report.

Oil Sands Operating Netbacks

Oil Sands operating netbacks are a non-GAAP measure, presented on a crude product and sales barrel basis, and are derived from the Oil Sands segmented statement of net earnings (loss), after adjusting for items not directly attributable to the revenues and costs associated with production and delivery. Management uses Oil Sands operating netbacks to measure crude product profitability on a sales barrel basis.

Exploration and Production (E&P) Operating Netbacks

E&P operating netbacks are a non-GAAP measure, presented on an asset location and sales barrel basis, and are derived from the E&P segmented statement of net earnings (loss), after adjusting for items not directly attributable to the revenues and costs associated with production and delivery. Management uses E&P operating netbacks to measure asset profitability by location on a sales barrel basis.

Definitions

(1)

Cash operating costs are calculated by adjusting Oil Sands segment operating, selling and general expense for non-production costs and excess power capacity. Significant non-production costs include, but are not limited to, share-based compensation adjustments, research costs, project startup costs and adjustments to reflect the cost of internal transfers in the receiving asset at the cost of production versus the cost of purchase. Non-production costs at Fort Hills and Syncrude also include, but are not limited to, an adjustment to reflect internally produced diesel from Oil Sands operations at the cost of production. Excess power capacity represents excess power revenue from cogeneration units that is recorded in operating revenues. Oil Sands operations excess power capacity and other also includes, but is not limited to, the natural gas expense recorded as part of a non-monetary arrangement involving a third-party processor. Oil Sands operations, Fort Hills and Syncrude production volumes are gross of internally consumed diesel and feedstock transfers between assets. Oil Sands operations, Fort Hills and Syncrude cash operating costs are reconciled in the Segment Results and Analysis – Oil Sands section of this MD&A. Management uses cash operating costs to measure operating performance.

(2)

Reflects the items not directly attributed to revenues received from the sale of proprietary crude and net non-proprietary activity at its deemed point of sale.

(3)

Reflects adjustments for general and administrative costs not directly attributed to the production of each crude product type, as well as the revenues associated with excess power generated from cogeneration units and sold that is recorded in operating revenue.

(4)

Reflects other E&P assets, such as Libya, for which netbacks are not provided.

(5)

Production from the company’s Libya operations has been presented in this document on an economic basis. Revenue and royalties from the company’s Libya operations are presented under the working-interest basis, which is required for presentation purposes in the company’s financial statements. Under the working-interest basis, revenue includes a gross-up amount with offsetting amounts presented in royalties in the E&P segment and income tax expense reported at the total consolidated level.

(6)

Reflects adjustments for general and administrative costs not directly attributed to production.

(7)

Reflects adjustments for intersegment marketing fees.

(8)

Refining production is the output of the refining process and differs from crude oil processed as a result of volumetric adjustment for non-crude feedstock, volumetric gain associated with the refining process and changes in unfinished product inventories.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(9)

Rack forward operating revenues, other income less purchases of crude oil and products.

(10)

Rack forward operating expense reflects operating, selling and general expenses associated with retail and wholesale operations.

(11)

Reflects operating, selling and general expenses associated with the company’s ethanol businesses and certain general and administrative costs not directly attributable to refinery production.

(12)

The custom 5-2-2-1 index is designed to represent Suncor’s Refining and Marketing business based on publicly available pricing data and approximates the gross margin on five barrels of crude oil of varying grades that is refined to produce two barrels of both gasoline and distillate and one barrel of secondary product. The index is a single value that is calculated by taking the product value of refined products less the crude value of refinery feedstock incorporating the company’s refining, product supply and rack forward businesses, but excluding the impact of first-in, first-out accounting. The product value is influenced by New York Harbor 2-1-1 crack, Chicago 2-1-1 crack, WTI benchmarks and seasonal factors. The seasonal factor is an estimate and reflects the location, quality and grade differentials for refined products sold in the company’s core markets during the winter and summer months. The crude value is influenced by SYN, WCS and WTI benchmarks.

Explanatory Notes

Users are cautioned that the Oil Sands operations, Fort Hills and Syncrude cash operating costs per barrel measures may not be fully comparable to one another or to similar information calculated by other entities due to the differing operations of each entity as well as other entities’ respective accounting policy choices.
