Imperial reported estimated net income in the second quarter of $949 million, compared to net income of $1,288 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by lower upstream realizations and downstream margin capture. Quarterly cash flows from operating activities were $1,465 million, compared to $1,527 million generated in the first quarter of 2025. Excluding the impact of working capital1, cash flows from operating activities were $1,413 million, compared to $1,760 million in the first quarter of 2025.

"We safely completed our heaviest planned turnaround quarter in both our Upstream and Downstream businesses, positioning the company for a strong second half of the year," said John Whelan, chairman, president and chief executive officer. "A significant accomplishment was the work completed at Kearl which delivers on our plans to double turnaround intervals to an industry-leading four years."

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. Cold Lake averaged gross production of 145,000 barrels per day in the second quarter and completed the planned turnaround work at the Mahkeses plant. The company's share of Syncrude quarterly production averaged 77,000 gross barrels per day.

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 Nanticoke and Strathcona. Petroleum product sales averaged 480,000 barrels per day.

"I am pleased to announce the start-up of Canada's largest renewable diesel facility which will deliver high quality lower emission fuels to the Canadian transportation sector," said Whelan. "This project is expected to deliver attractive returns and complements our integrated business model and industry-leading refinery base."

During the quarter, Imperial returned $367 million to shareholders through dividend payments and has declared a third quarter dividend of 72 cents per share. In June, Imperial renewed its annual normal course issuer bid program (NCIB) allowing the repurchase of up to five percent of its outstanding shares over a 12-month period.

"Imperial remains committed to its long-established history of returning surplus cash to shareholders, and I am pleased to announce our plan to accelerate our NCIB share repurchases with a target of completing the program prior to year end," said Whelan.

Second quarter highlights

  • Net income of $949 million or $1.86 per share on a diluted basis, compared to $1,133 million or $2.11 per share in the second quarter of 2024.
  • Cash flows from operating activities of $1,465 million, compared to cash flows from operating activities of $1,629 million in the second quarter of 2024. Cash flows from operating activities excluding working capital1 of $1,413 million, compared to $1,508 million in the second quarter of 2024.
  • Capital and exploration expenditures totaled $473 million, up from $462 million in the second quarter of 2024.
  • The company returned $367 million to shareholders in the second quarter of 2025 through dividends paid and declared a quarterly dividend of 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 by Grand 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.
  • Completed construction and commissioning on Canada's largest renewable diesel facility located at the Strathcona refinery with first production in July. Imperial has received project support through the Governments of Alberta, British Columbia and Strathcona County.
  • Refinery throughput averaged 376,000 barrels per day, compared to 387,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2024. 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.
  • Chemical net income of $21 million in the quarter, compared to $65 million in the second quarter of 2024, primarily driven by lower polyethylene margins.
  • Announced single largest corporate gift to any post-secondary institution in Alberta, with the donation of the $37 million research lab facility to the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT).

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.

During 2025, the United States announced a variety of trade-related actions, including the imposition of tariffs on imports from Canada and several other countries. In response, Canada announced its own retaliatory tariffs. Certain tariffs were paused for a period of time but have not been withdrawn, while others have been revised. The global trade environment continues to be volatile. The likelihood of the United States, Canada or their trading partners resuming tariffs, imposing new or revised reciprocal tariffs, export restrictions, or other forms of trade-related sanctions is highly uncertain. Additionally, significant uncertainty exists as to what effects these actions will ultimately have on Imperial, its suppliers and its customers. The company continually monitors the global trade environment and works to mitigate potential impacts.

(a) The company did not purchase any shares during the second quarter of 2025 and 2024.

On June 23, 2025, the company announced by news release that it had received final approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange for a new normal course issuer bid and will continue its existing share purchase program. Shareholders may obtain a copy of the Notice of Intention to Make a Normal Course Issuer Bid approved by the TSX without charge by contacting the company. The program enables the company to purchase up to a maximum of 25,452,248 common shares during the period June 29, 2025 to June 28, 2026. This maximum includes shares purchased under the normal course issuer bid from Exxon Mobil Corporation. As in the past, Exxon Mobil Corporation has advised the company that it intends to participate to maintain its ownership percentage at approximately 69.6 percent. The program will end should the company purchase the maximum allowable number of shares or otherwise on June 28, 2026. Imperial plans to accelerate its share purchases under the normal course issuer bid program, and anticipates repurchasing all remaining allowable shares prior to year end. Purchase plans may be modified at any time without prior notice.

Attachment VI

Non-GAAP financial measures and other specified financial measures

Certain measures included in this document are not prescribed by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). These measures constitute "non-GAAP financial measures" under Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K, and "specified financial measures" under National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure of the Canadian Securities Administrators.

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.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is cash flows from operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment and equity company investments plus proceeds from asset sales. 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. This measure is used to evaluate cash available for financing activities (including but not limited to dividends and share purchases) after investment in the business.

Net income (loss) excluding identified items

Net income (loss) excluding identified items is a non-GAAP financial measure that is total net income (loss) excluding individually significant non-operational events with an absolute corporate total earnings impact of at least $100 million in a given quarter. The net income (loss) impact of an identified item for an individual segment may be less than $100 million when the item impacts several segments or several periods. The most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the financial statements is "Net income (loss)" within the company’s Consolidated statement of income. Management uses these figures to improve comparability of the underlying business across multiple periods by isolating and removing significant non-operational events from business results. The company believes this view provides investors increased transparency into business results and trends, and provides investors with a view of the business as seen through the eyes of management. Net income (loss) excluding identified items is not meant to be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) as prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All identified items are presented on an after-tax basis.

Reconciliation of net income (loss) excluding identified items

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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and disclosed in the company’s SEC Form 10-K.
