Logan Energy Corp. (TSXV: LGN) ("Logan" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the details of its Duvernay land position, which represents a new play type comprised of highly economic drilling inventory, and the acceleration of full field development at Pouce Coupe, including the construction of a 40 mmcf/d gas plant and associated infrastructure. In addition, the Company is pleased to announce its expanded 2024 budget and a fully funded preliminary budget for 2025, which will deliver 82% growth in Adjusted Funds Flow per share.

Logan is also pleased to announce an equity financing to be offered on a bought deal, private placement basis, with National Bank Financial Inc. as sole bookrunner and co-lead underwriter and Eight Capital as co-lead underwriter, for aggregate gross proceeds of $30.0 million (the "Equity Offering").

In connection with the accelerated capital expenditure budget and construction of the Pouce Coupe infrastructure, Logan has also received a commitment letter from National Bank of Canada (the "Lender") pursuant to which the Lender has agreed to provide the Company with new committed credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million (the "New Credit Facilities").

DUVERNAY POSITION

Logan has assembled a ~152 section position within the greater Kaybob Duvernay oil play. Logan’s position is comprised of blocks located in North Simonette (the "Simonette Duvernay") and Ante Creek (the "Ante Creek Duvernay", and collectively, the "Duvernay Assets"). Underpinned by thorough geotechnical evaluation, the Duvernay Assets add over 140 extended reach horizontal Duvernay oil locations1. The Duvernay Assets provide incremental development opportunities to complement Logan’s organic development plans for its existing Pouce Coupe and Simonette Montney assets. The Company believes growth to 20,000 to 25,000 BOE/d by 2028 will be achievable from the development of its existing Montney assets alone. Logan plans to continually rationalize and expand its Duvernay position over this period.

Simonette Duvernay

  • The Simonette Duvernay asset is comprised of ~56 net sections with 50 net locations1.
  • Development of these lands will utilize existing Logan infrastructure and will benefit from co-development of the Company’s North Simonette Montney assets.
  • The Simonette Duvernay lands are largely delineated with previous drilling and offer highly economic oil inventory. A 1,568 meter horizontal Duvernay well (13-01-064-26W5) completed in 2015 on Logan lands will yield an expected oil EUR of over 210 mbbl of oil; normalizing this to a 3,500 meter horizontal would yield an expected oil EUR of over 468 mbbl.
  • Within the 2025 budget, Logan plans to drill and place onstream one net Simonette Duvernay well to demonstrate the asset productivity with a modern full length well.

________________________1 Assuming a conservative 600 meter inter well spacing, average length of ~3,500 meter horizontal. See "Reader Advisories - Drilling Locations".

Ante Creek Duvernay

  • The Ante Creek Duvernay asset is comprised of ~96 net sections with over 90 net locations1.
  • The Ante Creek Duvernay land base is a northern extension of the Kaybob Duvernay trend. Logan believes the Ante Creek Duvernay will deliver similar results as Simonette and other areas in Kaybob of similar thickness.
  • Logan believes the Sturgeon Creek area Duvernay wells in TWP70-22 to be the low case for the Ante Creek Duvernay, which has higher pressures (>45 MPa), less carbonate material and better fluid properties (more gas drive) than the Sturgeon area.
  • Logan drilled an initial Ante Creek Duvernay well in the second quarter of 2024 that will be completed and put on production as part of the 2025 program.

Logan Duvernay Lands

ACCELERATED POUCE COUPE DEVELOPMENT

With the funding announced herein, Logan is pleased to announce the accelerated full field development of its Pouce Coupe assets, including the construction of a 40 mmcf/d gas plant, compressor station and oil battery. This infrastructure will enable the asset to grow from its current constraint of ~3,500 BOE/d to ~10,000 BOE/d.

Logan is budgeting approximately $32 million for the gas plant, battery and compression (inclusive of $10 million of 2024 long lead capital). Incremental to the facility capital, Logan is budgeting approximately $15 million for gathering and sales pipelines in 2025 but will look to partner with third parties to jointly own and develop certain sales pipelines where beneficial to reduce capital costs. The facility is expected to be commissioned by mid-2025, with eight new wells to be brought onstream concurrently. The facility will be designed to handle 40 mmcf/d of gas, 7,000 bbl/d of oil and 11,000 bbl/d of water and the asset NGL yield will increase to ~17 bbl/mmcf from ~10 bbl/mmcf presently.

The decision for Logan to build an owned fit-for-purpose facility was compelling because of Logan’s highly competitive cost structure driven by in-house engineering and an entrepreneurial approach to procurement. The compression and battery portion of the facility would have been required whether gas was to be processed via third party or a new Logan owned plant. The payout on the incremental capital to expand the battery to also being a gas plant will be under fifteen months. This facility is a key element in Logan's plan to reduce its corporate operating cost to below $8.00 per BOE by 2028 and will enable Logan to accelerate drilling in Pouce Coupe which is the Company’s highest liquid weighted drilling inventory.

Accelerating this development initially planned for 2026 was enabled by the availability of gas egress, which allows Logan to deliver on its five year growth plan more quickly. By the fourth quarter of 2025, Logan expects its Pouce Coupe asset to be producing over 7,300 BOE/d through owned infrastructure and over a decade of tier one oil weighted inventory remaining.

EQUITY OFFERING

Logan has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of underwriters (the "Underwriters") with National Bank Financial Inc. as sole bookrunner and co-lead underwriter and Eight Capital as co-lead underwriter (the "Lead Underwriters"), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase for resale on a private placement, bought deal basis, 41,096,000 common shares ("Common Shares") at a price of $0.73 per Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $30.0 million. Certain directors, officers and employees of the Company will subscribe for approximately $5.0 million of the Equity Offering.

Logan intends to use the net proceeds from the Equity Offering to fund a portion of its accelerated development program in the Montney and Duvernay and for general corporate purposes. Timed with the construction of the Pouce Coupe facility, the Company believes the incremental value it can create with the proceeds of the Equity Offering more than offsets the small amount of dilution resulting from the Equity Offering and positions the Company well for accelerated future growth.

The completion of the Equity Offering is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"). Closing of the Equity Offering is expected to occur on or around October 3, 2024. The Company has agreed to pay a cash commission of 4.0% of the gross proceeds of the Equity Offering to the Underwriters, except with respect to subscribers to be included on the president's list for which no commission will be paid.

The Common Shares will be subject to a statutory hold period that extends four months from the Closing Date; provided that any Common Shares issued in the United States will be subject to a 1 year hold period, subject to the ability to resell the Common Shares on the TSXV prior to 1 year in accordance with U.S. securities laws.

NEW CREDIT FACILITIES

In connection with the accelerated capital expenditure budget and construction of the Pouce Coupe infrastructure, the Company has received a commitment letter from the Lender, pursuant to which the Lender has agreed to commit, on a bilateral basis, to provide the Company with the New Credit Facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million. The New Credit Facilities are comprised of a $50.0 million delayed draw term facility with a maximum initial tenor of up to 2.5 years from closing (the "Term Facility"), and a $75.0 million senior secured revolving committed term credit facility with an initial tenor of 2.0 years from closing (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), which will, in aggregate, replace the Company’s existing $75.0 million demand credit facility upon closing.

Closing of the New Credit Facilities is expected to occur on or around October 3, 2024 and is subject to closing of the Equity Offering and other customary conditions.

The Term Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility will each be secured by all of the assets of the Company, bear interest at market rates that fluctuate plus a margin based on the net debt to EBITDA ratio of the Company and include customary debt covenants for lending arrangements of this nature.

The Term Facility is available to draw after January 1, 2025 and prior to May 31, 2025, to a maximum principal amount of up to $50.0 million and will be used to fund the Company’s Pouce Coupe infrastructure and accelerated development in the area. The Term Facility matures at the earlier of 2.5 years from closing and 2.0 years from the date of the initial draw and is prepayable anytime without penalty. Repayments of principal are not required until the maturity date, provided the Company is in compliance with all covenants, representations and warranties.

REVISED 2024 GUIDANCE

The 2024 capital budget is being expanded from $120 million to $140 million. The increase is predominantly for certain long lead projects connected to the Pouce Coupe facility and to accelerate two drills in Simonette into 2024, which will enable the pad to be onstream before spring breakup in 2025.

After giving effect to the increase in capital expenditures, lower natural gas prices, the Equity Offering and the New Credit Facilities, Logan has revised its 2024 guidance as follows:

PRELIMINARY 2025 BUDGET

Logan is pleased to provide a fully funded preliminary budget for 2025, focused on delivering material liquids growth, an inaugural Duvernay program and accelerated Pouce Coupe development. The 2025 capital expenditure budget of $170 million is elevated relative to other years within Logan's five year plan due to the one-time Pouce Coupe infrastructure costs.

In addition to constructing and commissioning the Pouce Coupe infrastructure, the Company plans to bring onstream eight wells at Pouce Coupe, four Simonette Montney wells, and two Duvernay wells. Logan also plans to drill two DUC wells at Flatrock in 2025 which were deferred from 2024 and replaced with the land earning Duvernay well drilled at Ante Creek during the second quarter of 2024.

This 2025 budget delivers (from 2024E to 2025E):

  • 47% average production growth;
  • 61% oil and condensate growth;
  • 24% decrease in average per unit operating and transportation costs;
  • 98% Adjusted Funds Flow growth; and
  • 82% Adjusted Funds Flow per share growth after giving effect to the Equity Offering.

READER ADVISORIES

Non-GAAP Measures and Ratios

This press release contains certain financial measures and ratios which do not have standardized meanings prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards"), also known as Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). As these non-GAAP financial measures and ratios are commonly used in the oil and gas industry, Logan believes that their inclusion is useful to investors. The reader is cautioned that these amounts may not be directly comparable to measures for other companies where similar terminology is used.

The non-GAAP measures and ratios used in this press release, represented by the capitalized and defined terms outlined below, are used by Logan as key measures of financial performance and are not intended to represent operating profits nor should they be viewed as an alternative to cash provided by operating activities, net income or other measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

The definitions below should be read in conjunction with the "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" section of the Company’s MD&A dated August 21, 2024, which includes discussion of the purpose and composition of the specified financial measures and detailed reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Operating Income and Operating Netback

Operating Income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is a useful supplemental measure that provides an indication of the Company's ability to generate cash from field operations, prior to administrative overhead, financing and other business expenses. "Operating Income, before hedging" is calculated by Logan as oil and gas sales, net of royalties, plus processing and other revenue, less operating and transportation expenses. "Operating Income, after hedging" is calculated by adjusting Operating Income, before hedging for realized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments.

The Company refers to Operating Income expressed per unit of production as an "Operating Netback" and reports the Operating Netback before and after hedging, both of which are non-GAAP financial ratios. Logan considers Operating Netback an important measure to evaluate its operational performance as it demonstrates its field level profitability relative to current commodity prices.

Adjusted Funds Flow

Cash provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable measure to Adjusted Funds Flow. "Adjusted Funds Flow" is reconciled to cash provided by operating activities by excluding changes in non-cash working capital, adding back transaction costs on acquisitions (if applicable). Logan utilizes Adjusted Funds Flow as a key performance measure in the Company's annual financial forecasts and public guidance.

The Company refers to Adjusted Funds Flow expressed per unit of production as an "Adjusted Funds Flow Netback".

Adjusted Funds Flow per share ("AFF per share")

AFF per share is a non-GAAP financial ratio used by the Logan as a key performance indicator. The basic and/or diluted weighted average Common Shares outstanding used in the calculation of AFF per share is calculated using the same methodology as net income per share.

Capital Expenditures before A&D

"Capital Expenditures before A&D" is used by Logan to measure its capital investment level compared to the Company's annual budgeted capital expenditures for its organic drilling program. It includes capital expenditures on exploration and evaluation assets and property, plant and equipment, before acquisitions and dispositions. The directly comparable GAAP measure to capital expenditures is cash used in investing activities.

Net Debt (Surplus)

Throughout this press release, references to "Net Debt (Surplus)" includes any long-term debt outstanding on the Company’s revolving and term credit facilities, net of Adjusted Working Capital. Net Debt and Adjusted Working Capital are both non-GAAP financial measures. "Adjusted Working Capital" is calculated as current liabilities less current assets, excluding derivative financial instrument assets and liabilities.

Supplementary Financial Measures

The supplementary financial measures used in this press release (primarily average sales price per product type and certain per BOE and per share figures) are either a per unit disclosure of a corresponding GAAP measure, or a component of a corresponding GAAP measure, presented in the financial statements. Supplementary financial measures that are disclosed on a per unit basis are calculated by dividing the aggregate GAAP measure (or component thereof) by the applicable unit for the period. Supplementary financial measures that are disclosed on a component basis of a corresponding GAAP measure are a granular representation of a financial statement line item and are determined in accordance with GAAP.

Assumptions for Guidance

Logan expects production to average approximately 8,700 BOE/d during 2024 (unchanged) and 12,800 BOE/d in 2025. The significant assumptions used in the forecast of Operating Netbacks and Adjusted Funds Flow for the Company’s 2024 and 2025 Guidance are summarized below.

Guidance Sensitivities

Changes in forecast commodity prices, exchange rates, differences in the amount and timing of capital expenditures, and variances in average production estimates can have a significant impact on the key performance measures included in Logan's guidance for 2024 and 2025. The Company's actual results may differ materially from these estimates. Holding all other assumptions constant, the table below shows the impact to forecasted Adjusted Funds Flow of a US$10/bbl change in the WTI crude oil price, a ~15% change in the AECO natural gas price, and a $0.05 change in the CA$/US$ exchange rate. Assuming capital expenditures are unchanged, an increase (decrease) in Adjusted Funds Flow will result in an equivalent decrease (increase) in forecasted Net Debt.

Drilling Locations

All of the over 140 net extended reach horizontal Duvernay oil drilling locations disclosed in this press release are unbooked locations. Unbooked locations are internal estimates based on the Company's assumptions as to the number of wells that can be drilled per section based on industry practice and internal review, being 600m inter well spacing and an average horizontal well length of ~3,500m. Unbooked locations do not have attributed reserves or resources. Unbooked locations have been identified by management as an estimation of Logan's multi-year drilling activities based on evaluation of applicable geologic, seismic, engineering, production and reserves information. There is no certainty that the Company will drill all unbooked drilling locations and if drilled there is no certainty that such locations will result in additional oil and gas reserves, resources or production. The drilling locations on which the Company actually drills wells will ultimately depend upon the availability of capital, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, additional reservoir information that is obtained and other factors. While certain of the unbooked drilling locations have been de-risked by drilling existing wells in relative close proximity to such unbooked drilling locations, the majority of other unbooked drilling locations are farther away from existing wells where management has less information about the characteristics of the reservoir and therefore there is more uncertainty whether wells will be drilled in such locations and if drilled there is more uncertainty that such wells will result in additional oil and gas reserves, resources or production.

Analogous Information

In this press release, the Company has provided certain information on the prospectivity of wells on properties adjacent to the Company's acreage which is "analogous information" as defined by applicable securities laws. This analogous information is derived from publicly available information sources which the Company believes are predominantly independent in nature. Some of this data may not have been prepared by qualified reserves evaluators or auditors and the preparation of any estimates may not be in strict accordance with the most recent publication of the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluations Handbook. Regardless, estimates by engineering and geotechnical practitioners may vary and the differences may be significant. The Company believes that the provision of this analogous information is relevant to the Company's activities and forecasting, given its property ownership in the area; however, readers are cautioned that there is no certainty that the forecasts provided herein based on analogous information will be accurate.

Other Measurements

All dollar figures included herein are presented in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted. This press release contains various references to the abbreviation "BOE" which means barrels of oil equivalent. Where amounts are expressed on a BOE basis, natural gas volumes have been converted to oil equivalence at six thousand cubic feet (mcf) per barrel (bbl). The term BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet per barrel is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead and is significantly different than the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil and natural gas. This conversion factor is an industry accepted norm and is not based on either energy content or current prices. Such abbreviation may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.

References to "oil" in this press release include light crude oil, medium crude oil, heavy oil and tight oil combined. NI 51-101 includes condensate within the product type of "natural gas liquids". References to "natural gas liquids" or "NGLs" include pentane, butane, propane and ethane. References to "gas" or "natural gas" relates to conventional natural gas. References to "liquids" includes crude oil, condensate and NGLs.

By its nature, such forward-looking information is subject to various risks and uncertainties, which could cause the actual results and expectations to differ materially from the anticipated results or expectations expressed. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: counterparty risk to closing the Equity Offering and the New Credit Facilities; fluctuations in commodity prices; changes in industry regulations and political landscape both domestically and abroad; wars, hostilities, civil insurrections; changes in legislation, including but not limited to tax laws, royalties and environmental regulations (including greenhouse gas emission reduction requirements and other decarbonization or social policies and including uncertainty with respect to the interpretation of omnibus Bill C-59 and the related amendments to the Competition Act (Canada)); foreign exchange or interest rates; increased operating and capital costs due to inflationary pressures (actual and anticipated); volatility in the stock market and financial system; impacts of pandemics; the retention of key management and employees; and risks with respect to unplanned pipeline outages and risks relating to inclement and severe weather events and natural disasters, such as fire, drought, flooding and extreme hot or cold temperatures, including in respect of safety, asset integrity and shutting-in production.

This press release contains future-oriented financial information and financial outlook information (collectively, "FOFI") about Logan's five year growth plan, Logan's budget and guidance for 2024 and 2025, including with respect to prospective results of operations, production (including 8,700 BOE/d during 2024, 12,800 BOE/d in 2025 and growing to 20,000 to 25,000 BOE/d by 2028) and operating costs (including reducing its corporate operating cost to below $8.00 per BOE by 2028), including pro forma the completion of the Equity Offering and the New Credit Facilities, all of which are subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations, and qualifications as set forth in the above paragraphs. FOFI contained in this document was approved by management as of the date of this document and was provided for the purpose of providing further information about Logan's proposed business activities in the remainder of 2024 and 2025. Logan and its management believe that FOFI has been prepared on a reasonable basis, reflecting management's best estimates and judgments, and represent, to the best of management's knowledge and opinion, the Company's expected course of action. However, because this information is highly subjective, it should not be relied on as necessarily indicative of future results. Logan disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any FOFI contained in this document, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required pursuant to applicable law. Readers are cautioned that the FOFI contained in this document should not be used for purposes other than for which it is disclosed herein. Changes in forecast commodity prices, exchange rates, differences in the timing of capital expenditures, and variances in average production estimates can have a significant impact on the key performance measures included in Logan's guidance. The Company's actual results may differ materially from these estimates.
