Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - May 27, 2026) - Prospera (TSXV: PEI) (OTC Pink: GXRFF) ("Prospera", "PEI", the "Corporation", or the "Company") is pleased to announce its operational and financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The quarter combined three storylines that, taken together, reposition the Corporation for the Luseland development program now underway: uninterrupted winter operations, a sharp inflection in March operating profitability driven by the strengthening oil price environment, and a series of financing and liability management transactions that materially improved the near-term capital structure.
Operational Reliability Through the Winter Operating Window
Q1 is historically the highest-risk operating window for Western Canadian heavy oil producers. Prospera entered the period with the benefit of its 2025 pipeline integrity program and ongoing improvements to facility infrastructure management, and ran the quarter without a single pipeline failure, compared with five in Q1 2025. Field uptime reached approximately

Management Commentary
"This quarter was about durability and positioning," said Shubham Garg, Chief Executive Officer. "We ran a clean winter on a tight capital budget, rebuilt the near-term liability stack on terms that aligned insiders and creditors alongside new investors, and are entering the back half of the year with a commodity tape that has moved decisively in our favour. The Luseland program is the next chapter, and we believe Prospera is well positioned to convert the current environment into measurable shareholder value."

It is important to note that BOEs (barrels of oil equivalent) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. The BOE conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
