Upstream production averaged 427,000 gross oil-equivalent barrels per day, the highest second quarter production in over 30 years. Kearl recorded its highest-ever second quarter total gross production averaging 275,000 barrels per day (195,000 barrels Imperial's share), including the completion of its planned turnaround.
Downstream throughput in the quarter averaged 376,000 barrels per day, resulting in an overall refinery capacity utilization of 87 percent, including the successful execution of significant planned turnaround work at

The company returned
to shareholders in the second quarter of 2025 through dividends paid and declared a quarterly dividend of$367 million 72 cents per share. - Renewed share repurchase program, enabling the purchase of up to five percent of common shares outstanding, a maximum of 25,452,248 shares, during the 12-month period commencing June 29, 2025. Consistent with the company's commitment to return surplus cash to shareholders, Imperial plans to accelerate its share purchases under the NCIB program and anticipates repurchasing all remaining allowable shares prior to year end. Purchase plans may be modified at any time without prior notice.
- Upstream production averaged 427,000 gross oil-equivalent barrels per day, the highest second quarter production in over 30 years, up from 404,000 gross oil-equivalent barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024 primarily driven by record Kearl production.
- Record second quarter total gross bitumen production at Kearl averaged 275,000 barrels per day (195,000 barrels Imperial's share), up from 255,000 barrels per day (181,000 barrels Imperial's share) in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to mine productivity and improved reliability.
-
Gross bitumen production at
Cold Lake averaged 145,000 barrels per day, compared to 147,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to production and steam cycle timing, and turnaround impacts partially offset byGrand Rapids solvent-assisted SAGD. - Leming SAGD project remains on track with steam injection started at the end of the second quarter and continuing until late 2025. First oil anticipated in late 2025, with production ramping up over the next year to a peak of around 9,000 barrels per day.
- The company's share of gross production from Syncrude averaged 77,000 barrels per day, up from 66,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by the timing of the annual coker turnaround.

Capacity utilization was 87 percent, compared to 89 percent in the second quarter of 2024. Lower refinery throughput and capacity utilization were primarily due to unplanned downtime partially offset by lower turnaround impacts.
- Petroleum product sales were 480,000 barrels per day, up from 470,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024, enabled by the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.

Recent business environment
During the second quarter of 2025, the price of crude oil decreased relative to first quarter of 2025, while the Canadian WTI/WCS spread narrowed due to low inventory levels. Industry refining margins improved in the second quarter of 2025, driven by strong seasonal demand.

Non-GAAP financial measures and other specified financial measures
Certain measures included in this document are not prescribed by
Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure, and other information required by these regulations, have been provided. Non-GAAP financial measures and specified financial measures are not standardized financial measures under GAAP and do not have a standardized definition. As such, these measures may not be directly comparable to measures presented by other companies, and should not be considered a substitute for GAAP financial measures.
Cash flows from (used in) operating activities excluding working capital
Cash flows from (used in) operating activities excluding working capital is a non-GAAP financial measure that is the total cash flows from operating activities less the changes in operating assets and liabilities in the period. The most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the financial statements is "Cash flows from (used in) operating activities" within the company’s Consolidated statement of cash flows. Management believes it is useful for investors to consider these numbers in comparing the underlying performance of the company’s business across periods when there are significant period-to-period differences in the amount of changes in working capital. Changes in working capital is equal to “Changes in operating assets and liabilities” as disclosed in the company’s Consolidated statement of cash flows and in Attachment II of this document. This measure assesses the cash flows at an operating level, and as such, does not include proceeds from asset sales as defined in Cash flows from operating activities and asset sales in the Frequently Used Terms section of the company’s annual Form 10-K.

There were no identified items in the second quarter or year-to-date 2025 and 2024 periods.
Cash operating costs (cash costs)
Cash operating costs is a non-GAAP financial measure that consists of total expenses, less purchases of crude oil and products, federal excise taxes and fuel charge, financing, and costs that are non-cash in nature, including depreciation and depletion, and non-service pension and postretirement benefit. The components of cash operating costs include "Production and manufacturing", "Selling and general" and "Exploration" from the company’s Consolidated statement of income, and as disclosed in Attachment III of this document. The sum of these income statement lines serves as an indication of cash operating costs and does not reflect the total cash expenditures of the company. The most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the financial statements is "Total expenses" within the company’s Consolidated statement of income. This measure is useful for investors to understand the company’s efforts to optimize cash through disciplined expense management.

Unit cash operating costs (unit cash costs)
Unit cash operating costs is a non-GAAP ratio. Unit cash operating costs (unit cash costs) is calculated by dividing cash operating costs by total gross oil-equivalent production, and is calculated for the Upstream segment, as well as the major Upstream assets. Cash operating costs is a non-GAAP financial measure and is disclosed and reconciled above. This measure is useful for investors to understand the expense management efforts of the company’s major assets as a component of the overall Upstream segment. Unit cash operating cost, as used by management, does not directly align with the definition of “Average unit production costs” as set out by the
