ARROW ANNOUNCES
THIRD UBAQUE
HORIZONTAL WELL RESULTS AND Q2 2024 INTERIM
RESULTS
CNB HZ-4 on production
CALGARY, August 29, 2024 - Arrow
Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL; TSXV: AXL) ("Arrow" or the "Company"), the high-growth operator
with a portfolio of assets across key Colombian hydrocarbon
basins, is pleased to provide an update on
operational activity and announces the
filing of its Interim Condensed (unaudited) Consolidated Financial
Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A")
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 which are
available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com)
and will also be available shortly
on Arrow's website at www.arrowexploration.ca.
CNB HZ-4
The third horizontal well on the
Carrizales Norte "B" pad (CNB HZ-4) is now on production and
exceeding expectations. The well has a current flow rate exceeding
2,500 BOPD gross (1,250 BOPD net to Arrow) and production is
continuing to increase. Currently the well has an 8%
water cut while still recovering load fluid. Management's
expectations are that the CNB HZ-4 well will reach IP production
rates similar to the Company's first two horizontal wells. Please
note initial production flows are not necessarily indicative of
long-term performance or ultimate recovery and a stabilized
production rate will be determined in the first few weeks of
operations, in keeping with conservative reservoir management.
Further updates will be provided in due course.
CNB HZ-4 was spud on July 28,
2024, and reached a target depth of 8,452 feet (true vertical
depth) on August 12, 2024. The well was drilled to a total
measured depth of 13,335 feet with a horizontal section of
approximately 3,940 feet. CNB HZ-4 came on production on August 26,
2024, with the use of an electric submersible pump (ESP) and, based
on initial results, has displayed comparable reservoir
characteristics as CNB HZ-1.
CNB HZ-3
The CNB HZ-3 is continuing to
perform above expectations and is being restricted to a current
flow rate of 1,920 BOPD gross (960 BOPD net) with approximately 31%
water cut. CNB HZ-3 average production for the first 30 days of
production (IP30) was 2,212 BOPD gross (1,106 BOPD net). The
well is being restricted to optimize reservoir performance and
ultimate recovery.
CNB HZ-1
The CNB HZ-1 is continuing to
perform above expectations and is being restricted to a current
flow rate of 2,090 BOPD gross (1,045 BOPD net) with approximately
41% water cut. CNB HZ-1 average production for the first 60 days of
production (IP60) was 2,375 BOPD gross (1,188 BOPD
net).
Drilling
Technology
Drilling metrics continue to
improve in the horizontal program regarding both time and
cost. The improvements reflect the learnings taken from CNB
HZ-1 and CNB HZ-3 as the operations team continues to focus on
improving capital and operating costs and creating further
shareholder value.
The CNB HZ-4 is the first Arrow
well to use Autonomous Inflow Control Devices (AICDs) which are
designed to limit the water cut in horizontal wells.
The results of CNB HZ-4 will be closely monitored to
determine if these technologies or others will enhance production
and ultimate recovery in the Ubaque reservoir.
Upcoming
Drilling
The rig has been moved to the
fifth cellar on the Carrizales Norte B Pad where the Company spud
the fourth horizontal well (CNB HZ-5) on August 22.
Thereafter, the Company expects to drill two more horizontal wells
on the B pad, followed by the Chorreron-1 (formerly known as
Baquiano-1) exploration well, which is on trend with the Carrizales
Norte field.
Corporate
Update
Current net corporate production
is approximately 5,000 BOE/D, inclusive of CNB HZ-1, CNB-3 and CNB
HZ-4.
Arrow's cash position was
approximately $12 million on August 1, 2024. Arrow has
maintained a healthy balance sheet with no debt.

(1)Non-IFRS measures - see
"Non-IFRS Measures" section within the
MD&A
Post Period End
Highlights:
·
Drilled three additional CN wells, including two
horizontal wells and one disposal well.
·
Spud the CNB HZ-5 from the CNB pad. The
Company expects to be able to provide an update on the production
figures for CNB HZ-5 in the coming weeks.
Outlook:
·
Continuing with the balanced delivery of the 2024
capital program, the majority of which will be focused on the
Carrizales Norte field and will include additional horizontal
wells.
·
Low risk exploration well planned at the
Chorreron prospect.
·
The remaining 2024 capital program will be
self-funded by a combination of cash flow from operations and cash
reserves.
Marshall Abbott, CEO of Arrow Exploration Corp.,
commented:
"The horizontal well program at the CNB pad continues to
exceed expectations, and the Company now plans to drill two
additional horizontal wells before moving to the Chorreron prospect
(formerly named Baquiano). This will result in a total of six
horizontal wells at Carrizales Norte in 2024 with additional
horizontal wells being planned for 2025. The Arrow team
continues to reduce the time and costs needed to drill horizontal
and vertical wells, using internally generated development drilling
and completion strategies."
"Arrow experienced material growth in production, revenue and
earnings in Q2 2024 compared to Q2 2023. This growth was
achieved while preparing for the highly successful horizontal well
program at Carrizales Norte. This included the Q1 and Q2
Carrizales Norte vertical well program to delineate the Ubaque
reservoir, as well as preparing pads, roads, oil transportation and
water disposal infrastructure."
"Arrow's focus for the remainder of 2024 will be the
completion of the six well horizontal well program at Carrizales
Norte as well as a low-risk exploration well at the Chorreron
prospect. A second rig is being evaluated to begin development
drilling at the RCE field towards the end of
2024."
"In 2025, Arrow plans another aggressive capital program
focused on production growth and exploration. Arrow plans to
drill low risk exploration wells at Mateguafa Oeste, Capullo, and
Mateguafa Attic. The Company is also targeting further horizontal
Ubaque and vertical C7 development drilling at Carrizales Norte,
and Chorreron, if successful, and the drilling of development
vertical wells at Rio Cravo Este in 2025."
"This enhanced capital program underlies the prolific setting
of the Tapir Block in the Llanos Basin in Colombia. The block
displays significant hydrocarbon density in multiple oil-bearing
zones down to 10,000 feet total depth."

Discussion of Operating Results
The Company continued increasing
its production from new wells at CN which allowed the Company to
continue to improve its operating results and EBITDA. There
has been a decrease in the Company's natural gas production in
Canada due to shut in of wells and natural declines.

The Company's average production
for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was 2,546 boe/d, which
consisted of crude oil production in Colombia of 2,387 bbl/d,
natural gas production of 926 Mcf/d, and minor amounts of natural
gas liquids from the Company's Canadian properties. The Company's
Q2 2024 production, which only included a few weeks' production
from the first horizontal well at Carrizales Norte, was 7%
lower than its Q1 2024 production and 17% higher when compared to
Q2 2023.
Discussion of Financial Results
During Q2 2024 the Company continued to realize good
oil prices, offset by lower gas prices, as summarized below:

(1)Non-IFRS
measure
The operating netbacks of the
Company continued within healthy levels during 2024 due increasing
production from its Colombian assets and improved crude oil prices,
which were offset by decreases in natural gas prices.
During Q2 2024, the Company
incurred $8.9 million of capital expenditures, primarily in
connection with the drilling of three additional CN wells in the
Tapir block. This accelerated tempo is expected to continue during
the remainder of 2024, funded by cash on hand and
cashflow.

About Arrow Exploration Corp.
Arrow Exploration Corp. (operating in Colombia via a
branch of its 100% owned subsidiary Carrao Energy S.A.) is a
publicly traded company with a portfolio of premier Colombian oil
assets that are underexploited, under-explored and offer high
potential growth. The Company's business plan is to expand oil
production from some of Colombia's most active basins, including
the Llanos, Middle Magdalena Valley (MMV) and Putumayo Basin. The
asset base is predominantly operated with high working interests,
and the Brent-linked light oil pricing exposure combines with low
royalties to yield attractive potential operating margins. Arrow's
50% interest in the Tapir Block is contingent on the assignment by
Ecopetrol SA of such interest to Arrow. Arrow's seasoned team is
led by a hands-on executive team supported by an experienced board.
Arrow is listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange and
on TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "AXL".

Non‐IFRS Measures
The Company uses non-IFRS measures to evaluate its
performance which are measures not defined in IFRS. Working
capital, funds flow from operations, realized prices, operating
netback, adjusted EBITDA, and net debt as presented do not have any
standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be
comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other
entities. The Company considers these measures as key measures to
demonstrate its ability to generate the cash flow necessary to fund
future growth through capital investment, and to repay its debt, as
the case may be. These measures should not be considered as an
alternative to, or more meaningful than net income (loss) or cash
provided by operating activities or net loss and comprehensive loss
as determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the
Company's performance. The Company's determination of these
measures may not be comparable to that reported by other
companies.

The
accompanying notes are an integral part of these interim
consolidated financial statements.
1. Corporate Information
Arrow Exploration Corp. ("Arrow"
or "the Company") is a public junior oil and gas company engaged in
the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas
properties in Colombia and in Western Canada. The Company's shares
trade on the TSX Venture Exchange and the AIM Market of the London
Stock Exchange plc under the symbol AXL. The head office of Arrow
is located at 203, 2303 - 4th Street SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada,
T2S 2S7 and the registered office is located at 600, 815 8th Avenue
SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 3P2.
2. Basis of Presentation
Statement of compliance
These interim condensed
consolidated financial statements (the "Financial Statements") have
been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard
("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Reporting. These Financial Statements
were authorized for issue by the board of directors of the Company
on August 28, 2024. They do not contain all disclosures required by
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") for annual
financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as
at December 31, 2023.
These Financial Statements have
been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial
assets and liabilities recorded in accordance with IFRS 9. The
Financial Statements have been prepared using the same accounting
policies and methods as the consolidated financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the adoption of new
accounting standards effective January 1, 2024. In preparing these
condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant
judgements made by management in applying the group's accounting
policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the
same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
The Company adopted amendments to
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, issued by the IASB,
related to the presentation of liabilities as current or
non-current and classification and disclosure of liabilities with
covenants. These amendments were adopted by the Company from
January 1, 2024 but they did not have a material impact on the
interim consolidated financial statements.

Canada
As at June 30, 2024, the Company
determined there were indicators of impairment in its Canada CGU,
mainly due to decreases in current and forward gas prices, and
prepared estimates of its fair value less costs of disposal of its
Canada CGU. It was determined that
carrying value of its Canada CGU exceeded its recoverable amount
and, therefore, an impairment loss of $1,542,000 was included in
the interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The
following table outlines forecast benchmark prices and exchange

The recoverable amount was
estimated at their fair value less costs of disposal, based on the
net present value of the future cash flows from oil and gas
reserves as estimated by the Company's independent reserve
evaluator at December 31, 2023, updated to reflect changes in
prices forecast, and an internal valuation of undeveloped land. The
fair value less costs of disposal used to determine the recoverable
amounts are classified as Level 3 fair value measurements as
certain key assumptions are not based on observable market data but
rather, the Company's best estimate. The Company used a 18.3%
(2023: 18.3%) pre-tax discount rate, which took into account risks
specific to the Canada CGU. The key assumptions in the internal
valuation of undeveloped land were the determination of the
transactions considered precedent, the discount applied to the
Company's lands and the probability of obtaining extensions on
related lands. The Company utilized an average value per acre of
$89.63 in the impairment test as at June 30, 2024.
As at December 31, 2023, the
Company determined there were indicators of impairment in its
Canada CGU, mainly due to decreases in forward gas prices and
revision of reserves, and prepared estimates of its fair value less
costs of disposal of its Canada CGU. It was determined
that carrying value of its Canada CGU exceeded
its recoverable amount and, therefore, an impairment loss of
$1,248,400 was included in the consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive income for the year ended December 31,
2023.
Colombia
During 2023, the Agencia Nacional
de Hidrocarburos ("ANH") approved the suspension of the obligations
and operations of the OMBU contract due to force majeure circumstances generated
by the blockades and social unrest around the Capella field. The
suspension was for an initial term of three months and has been
extended until August 2024. The Company determined there were
indicators of impairment in the Capella CGU and recorded an
impairment loss of $10,551,340 corresponding to the full carrying
value of the Capella CGU as at December 31, 2023.

1.25% to 4.50% in Canada (2023: 1.25% to 4.50%) and between 4.00%
and 4.29% in Colombia (2022: 4.00% and 4.29%) with an inflation
rate of 2.5% and 2.6%, respectively (2023: 2.5% and 2.6%). The
majority of costs are expected to occur between 2024 and 2038. The
undiscounted amount of cash flows, required over the estimated
reserve life of the underlying assets, to settle the obligation,
adjusted for inflation, is estimated at $6,396,370 (2023:
$5,686,938).

Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may
be involved in litigation or has claims sought against it in the
normal course of business operations. Management of the
Company is not currently aware of any claims or actions that would
materially affect the Company's reported financial position or
results from operations. Under the terms of certain agreements and
the Company's by-laws the Company indemnifies individuals who have
acted at the Company's request to be a director and/or officer of
the Company, to the extent permitted by law, against any and all
damages, liabilities, costs, charges or expenses suffered by or
incurred by those individuals.
Letters of Credit
At June 30, 2024, the Company had
obligations under Letters of Credit ("LC's") outstanding totaling
$2.8 million to guarantee work commitments on exploration blocks
and other contractual commitments. In the event the Company fails
to secure the renewal of the letters of credit underlying the ANH
guarantees, or any of them, the ANH could decide to cancel the
underlying exploration and production contract for a particular
block, as applicable.

12. Risk Management
The Company holds various forms of
financial instruments. The nature of these instruments and the
Company's operations expose the Company to commodity price, credit
and foreign exchange risks. The Company manages its exposure to
these risks by operating in a manner that minimizes its exposure to
the extent practical.
(a)
Commodity price risk
Commodity price risk is the risk
that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate as a result of changes in commodity prices.
Lower commodity prices can also impact the Company's ability to
raise capital. Commodity prices for crude oil are impacted by
world economic events that dictate the levels of supply and
demand. There were no derivative contracts during
2024.
(b)
Credit Risk
Credit risk reflects the risk of
loss if counterparties do not fulfill their contractual
obligations. The majority of the Company's account receivable
balances relate to petroleum and natural gas sales. The
Company's policy is to enter into agreements with customers that
are well established and well financed entities in the oil and gas
industry such that the level of risk is mitigated. In Colombia, a
significant portion of the sales is with a producing company and a
commodities trader under existing sale/offtake agreements with
prepayment provisions and priced using the Brent benchmark. The
Company's trade account receivables primarily relate to sales of
crude oil and natural gas, which are normally collected within 25
days (in Canada) and up to 15 days (in Colombia) after the month of
production. Other accounts receivable mainly relate to
balances owed by the Company's partner in one of its blocks, and
are mainly recoverable through join billings. The Company has
historically not experienced any collection issues with its
customers and partners.
(c)
Market Risk
Market risk is comprised of two
components: foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate
risk.
i)
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
The Company operates on an
international basis and therefore foreign exchange risk exposures
arise from transactions denominated in currencies other than the
United States dollar. The Company is exposed to foreign currency
fluctuations as it holds cash and incurs expenditures in
exploration and evaluation and administrative costs in foreign
currencies. The Company incurs expenditures in Canadian dollars,
United States dollars, British Pounds and the Colombian peso and is
exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates in these currencies.
There are no exchange rate contracts in place.
ii) Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk
that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in
market interest rates. The Company is
not currently exposed to interest rate risk.
(d)
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk includes the risk
that, as a result of the Company's operational liquidity
requirements:
· The
Company will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction on
the due date;
· The
Company will be forced to sell financial assets at a value which is
less than what they are worth; or
· The
Company may be unable to settle or recover a financial
asset.
The Company's approach to managing
its liquidity risk is to ensure, within reasonable means,
sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both
normal and unusual conditions, without incurring unacceptable
losses or jeopardizing the Company's business objectives. The
Company prepares annual capital expenditure budgets which are
monitored regularly and updated as considered necessary.
Petroleum and natural gas production is monitored daily to provide
current cash flow estimates and the Company utilizes authorizations
for expenditures on projects to manage capital expenditures. Any
funding shortfall may be met in a number of ways, including, but
not limited to, the issuance of new debt or equity instruments,
further expenditure reductions and/or the introduction of joint
venture partners.
(e)
Capital Management
The Company's objective is to
maintain a capital base sufficient to provide flexibility in the
future development of the business and maintain investor, creditor
and market confidence. The Company manages its capital
structure and makes adjustments in response to changes in economic
conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets.
The Company considers its capital structure to include share
capital, bank debt (when available), promissory notes and working
capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities.
From time to time the Company may issue common shares or other
securities, sell assets or adjust its capital spending to manage
current and projected debt levels. The Company adjusts its capital
structure based on its net debt level. Net debt is defined as
the principal amount of its outstanding debt, less working capital
items. The Company prepares annual budgets, which are updated
as necessary including current and forecast crude oil prices,
changes in capital structure, execution of the Company's business
plan and general industry conditions. The annual budget is
approved by the Board of Directors. The Company's capital includes
the following:

Arrow Exploration Corp.
MANAGEMENT's DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE
30, 2024
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This Management's Discussion and
Analysis ("MD&A") as provided by the management of Arrow
Exploration Corp. ("Arrow" or the "Company"), is dated as of August
28, 2024 and should be read in conjunction with Arrow's interim
condensed (unaudited) consolidated financial statements and related
notes as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024
and 2023. Additional information relating to Arrow, including its
annual consolidated financial statements and related notes for the
year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (the "Annual Financial
Statements"), is available under Arrow's profile on
www.sedar.com.
Advisories
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards ("IFRS"), and all amounts herein are expressed in United
States dollars, unless otherwise noted, and all tabular amounts are
expressed in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted.
Additional information for the Company may be found on SEDAR at
www.sedar.com.
Advisory Regarding Forward‐Looking
Statements
This MD&A contains certain statements or disclosures
relating to Arrow that are based on the expectations of its
management as well as assumptions made by and information currently
available to Arrow which may constitute forward-looking statements
or information ("forward-looking statements") under applicable
securities laws. All such statements and disclosures, other than
those of historical fact, which address activities, events,
outcomes, results or developments that Arrow anticipates or expects
may, could or will occur in the future (in whole or in part) should
be considered forward-looking statements. In some cases,
forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of the
words "believe", "continue", "could", "expect", "likely", "may",
"outlook", "plan", "potential", "will", "would" and similar
expressions. In particular, but without limiting the foregoing,
this MD&A contains forward-looking statements pertaining to the
following: global pandemics and their impact; tax liability;
capital management strategy; capital structure; credit facilities
and other debt; performance by Canacol (as defined herein) and the
Company in connection with the Note (as defined herein) and letters
of credit; Arrow's costless collar structure; cost reduction
initiatives; potential drilling on the Tapir block; capital
requirements; expenditures associated with asset retirement
obligations; future drilling activity and the development of the
Rio Cravo Este structure on the Tapir Block. Statements relating to
"reserves" and "resources" are deemed to be forward-looking
information, as they involve the implied assessment, based on
certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves and resources
described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and can be
profitably produced in the future.
The forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A
reflect several material factors and expectations and assumptions
of Arrow including, without limitation: current and anticipated
commodity prices and royalty regimes; the impact of the global
pandemics; the financial impact of Arrow's costless collar
structure; availability of skilled labour; timing and amount of
capital expenditures; future exchange rates; commodity prices; the
impact of increasing competition; general economic conditions;
availability of drilling and related equipment; receipt of partner,
regulatory and community approvals; royalty rates; changes in
income tax laws or changes in tax laws and incentive programs;
future operating costs; effects of regulation by governmental
agencies; uninterrupted access to areas of Arrow's operations and
infrastructure; recoverability of reserves; future production
rates; timing of drilling and completion of wells; pipeline
capacity; that Arrow will have sufficient cash flow, debt or equity
sources or other financial resources required to fund its capital
and operating expenditures and requirements as needed; that Arrow's
conduct and results of operations will be consistent with its
expectations; that Arrow will have the ability to develop its oil
and gas properties in the manner currently contemplated; current
or, where applicable, proposed industry conditions, laws and
regulations will continue in effect or as anticipated; that the
estimates of Arrow's reserves and production volumes and the
assumptions related thereto (including commodity prices and
development costs) are accurate in all material respects; that
Arrow will be able to obtain contract extensions or fulfil the
contractual obligations required to retain its rights to explore,
develop and exploit any of its undeveloped properties; and other
matters.
Arrow believes the material factors, expectations and
assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are
reasonable at this time but no assurance can be given that these
factors, expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct. The
forward-looking statements included in this MD&A are not
guarantees of future performance and should not be unduly relied
upon.
Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual
results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in
such forward-looking statements including, without limitation: the
impact of general economic conditions; volatility in commodity
prices; industry conditions including changes in laws and
regulations including adoption of new environmental laws and
regulations, and changes in how they are interpreted and enforced;
competition; lack of availability of qualified personnel; the
results of exploration and development drilling and related
activities; obtaining required approvals of regulatory authorities;
counterparty risk; risks associated with negotiating with foreign
governments as well as country risk associated with conducting
international activities; commodity price volatility; fluctuations
in foreign exchange or interest rates; environmental risks; changes
in income tax laws or changes in tax laws and incentive programs;
changes to pipeline capacity; ability to secure a credit facility;
ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external
sources; risk that Arrow's evaluation of its existing portfolio of
development and exploration opportunities is not consistent with
future results; that production may not necessarily be indicative
of long term performance or of ultimate recovery; and certain other
risks detailed from time to time in Arrow's public disclosure
documents including, without limitation, those risks identified in
Arrow's 2018 AIF, a copy of which is available on Arrow's SEDAR
profile at www.sedar.com. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing
list of factors is not exhaustive and are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements.
Non‐IFRS Measures
The Company uses non-IFRS measures to evaluate its
performance which are measures not defined in IFRS. Working
capital, funds flow from operations, realized prices, operating
netback, adjusted EBITDA, and net debt as presented do not have any
standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be
comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other
entities. The Company considers these measures as key measures to
demonstrate its ability to generate the cash flow necessary to fund
future growth through capital investment, and to repay its debt, as
the case may be. These measures should not be considered as an
alternative to, or more meaningful than net income or cash provided
by (used in) operating activities or net income and comprehensive
income as determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the
Company's performance. The Company's determination of these
measures may not be comparable to that reported by other
companies.
Adjusted working capital is calculated as current assets
minus current liabilities, excluding non-cash liabilities; funds
from operations is calculated as cash flows provided by operating
activities adjusted to exclude changes in non-cash working capital
balances; realized price is calculated by dividing gross revenue by
gross production, by product, in the applicable period; operating
netback is calculated as total natural gas and crude revenues minus
royalties, transportation costs and operating expenditures;
adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income adjusted for
interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and
other similar non-recurring or non-cash charges; and
net debt (net
cash) is defined as the principal amount of its outstanding debt,
less working capital items excluding non-cash
liabilities.
The Company also presents funds from operations per share,
whereby per share amounts are calculated using weighted- average
shares outstanding consistent with the calculation of net income
per share.
A reconciliation of the non-IFRS measures is included as
follows:

(1)Non-IFRS
measures
The term barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") is used in this
MD&A. Boe may be misleading, particularly if used in
isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 thousand cubic feet
("Mcf") of natural gas to one barrel of oil ("bbl") is used in the
MD&A. This conversion ratio of 6:1 is based on an energy
equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner
tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the
wellhead.

The Company's primary producing
assets are located in Colombia in the Tapir, Oso Pardo and Ombu
blocks, with natural gas production in Canada at Fir and Pepper,
Alberta.
Llanos
Basin
Within the Llanos Basin, the
Company is engaged in the exploration, development and production
of oil within the Tapir block. In the Llanos Basin most oil
accumulations are associated with three-way dip closure against
NNE-SSW trending normal faults and can have pay within multiple
reservoirs. The Tapir block contain large areas not yet covered by
3D seismic, and in Management's opinion offer substantial
exploration upside.
1The Company's interest in the Tapir block is held through a
private contract with Petrolco, who holds a 50% participating
interest in, and is the named operator of, the Tapir contract with
Ecopetrol. The formal assignment to the Company is subject to
Ecopetrol's consent. The Company is the de facto operator pursuant to certain
agreements with Petrolco (details of which are set out in Paragraph
16.13 of the Company's AIM Admission Document dated October 20,
2021).
Middle Magdalena Valley
("MMV") Basin
Oso Pardo Field
The Oso Pardo Field is located in
the Santa Isabel Block in the MMV Basin. It is a 100% owned
property operated by the Company. The Oso Pardo field is
located within a Production Licence covering 672 acres. Three wells
have been drilled to date within the licensed area.
Ombu E&P Contract -
Capella Conventional Heavy Oil Discovery
The Caguan Basin covers an area of
approximately 60,000 km2 and lies between the Putumayo
and Llanos Basins. The primary reservoir target is the Upper Eocene
aged Mirador formation. The Capella structure is a large, elongated
northeast-southwest fault-related anticline, with approximately
17,500 acres in closure at the Mirador level. The field is located
approximately 250 km away from the nearest offloading station at
Neiva, where production from Capella is trucked.
The Capella No. 1 discovery well
was drilled in July 2008 and was followed by a series of
development wells. The Company earned a 10% working interest in the
Ombu E&P Contract by paying 100% of all activities associated
with the drilling, completion, and testing of the Capella No. 1
well. The Capella field is currently suspended and temporarily shut
in.
Fir,
Alberta
The Company has an average
non-operated 32% WI in 12 gross (3.84 net) sections of oil and
natural gas rights and 17 gross (4.5 net) producing natural gas
wells at Fir. The wells produce raw natural gas into the Cecilia
natural gas plant where it is processed.
Pepper,
Alberta
The Company holds a 100% operated
WI in 37 sections of Montney P&NG rights on its Pepper asset in
West Central Alberta. The 6-26-53-23W5M Montney gas well (West
Pepper) is tied into the Galloway gas plant for processing. The
3-21-52-22W5M Montney gas well (East Pepper) is currently tied into
the Sundance gas plant for processing. The majority of lands have
tenure extending into 2025. Both West Pepper and East Pepper wells
are currently shut in due to current low natural gas prices in
Canada.

The Company increased its
production from its new wells at its Carrizales Norte field in the
Tapir block. These have allowed the Company to continue to improve
its operating results and EBITDA. There has also been a
decrease in the Company's natural gas production in Canada due to
shut ins in some wells and natural declines.
