Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Obsidian Energy Ltd. reported Q2 2026 results in Canadian dollars. The company generated adjusted funds flow from operationsnet income of $42.0 million ($0.63 per share basic). Average production was 28,200 boe/d, slightly below 28,943 boe/d a year earlier, while the average sales price rose to $77.17 per boe and corporate netback increased to $33.22 per boe despite realized hedging losses.

Capital expenditures were $39.1 million and free cash flow was $33.2 million. On June 30, Obsidian closed the $98.0 million Belly River light-oil acquisition adding about 2,500 boe/d and 35 net sections of land, funded with its credit facility. Net debt rose to $353.6 million at June 30, 2026, as the company expanded its $275.0 million syndicated credit facility, added senior unsecured notes and continued its normal course issuer bid and prepaid equity forward program covering 5.21 million shares.

Positive

  • Q2 2026 net income increased to $42.0 million ($0.63 per share basic) from $15.3 million ($0.22 per share) in Q2 2025, supported by higher realized oil prices.
  • Q2 2026 adjusted funds flow from operations rose to $73.6 million ($1.10 per share basic) versus $63.2 million ($0.90 per share) a year earlier.

Negative

  • Obsidian’s net debt increased to $353.6 million at June 30, 2026, from $240.1 million at December 31, 2025, mainly reflecting the $98.0 million Belly River acquisition and capital returns.

Filing Explained

Up to C$7.0 million of acquisition consideration remains conditional, while post-quarter-end note financing increased senior debt to C$250.0 million.

As a Form 6-K interim report, the filing confirms that the Belly River Acquisition closed on June 30; existing holders face no disclosed new equity issuance from this transaction, but up to C$7.0 million of additional consideration remains possible.

The contingent value payment may be made in quarterly installments of up to C$1.75 million from the third quarter of 2026 through the second quarter of 2027, depending on quarterly WTI prices; the company assigned it no value at June 30 based on forecast prices.

After June 30, the company issued C$75.0 million of additional senior unsecured notes, increasing their principal outstanding to C$250.0 million; gross proceeds of C$77.1 million were used to reduce drawings under the syndicated credit facility.

The facility's C$275.0 million amount is a borrowing limit, not cash raised, while the C$250.0 million notes figure is principal outstanding after the add-on; the filing therefore describes a debt-structure change rather than an equity financing.

Adjusted funds flow from operations financial
"The Company generated AFFO of $73.6 million ($1.10 per share basic)"
A non-GAAP measure of the cash a company’s core business produces, calculated by taking operating cash flow or net income and removing or adding non-cash items and one-time gains or costs so the result reflects recurring cash generation. It matters to investors because it shows the steady, usable cash a business produces to run operations, repay debt, pay dividends or reinvest—think of it as the regular monthly paycheck after ignoring one-off bonuses and accounting quirks.
netback financial
"Netback ($/boe) was $33.22 in Q2 2026 compared to $27.13 in 2025"
Netback measures how much money a company keeps for each unit of product sold after subtracting direct selling costs such as transportation, processing and royalties, so it represents the effective cash earned per barrel, ton or unit rather than the raw market price. For investors it reveals the real profitability of production—like comparing take-home pay after taxes and commuting costs—making it easier to compare operational efficiency across companies and projects.
barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") technical
"Barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation"
prepaid equity forward contracts financial
"the Company began entering into prepaid equity forward contracts in respect of our common shares"
A prepaid equity forward contract is an agreement where one party pays cash up front in exchange for receiving shares (or the cash value of shares) at a set future date or over time, with the price or number of shares linked to the future market value. Think of it like lending money today in return for a promise of stock later; it matters to investors because it provides immediate capital, can shift timing of ownership or tax exposure, and is used for financing, hedging, or monetizing holdings without an immediate sale.
normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") regulatory
"our return of capital initiative through our normal course issuer bid ("NCIB")"
contingent value payment ("CVP") financial
"a contingent value payment ("CVP") of up to $7.0 million may be payable"

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

 

"The second quarter was highlighted by the execution of our Belly River acquisition while also generating $73.6 million in adjusted funds flow from operations on average production of 28,200 boe/d," commented Stephen Loukas, Obsidian Energy's President and CEO. "During the quarter, our development activities were primarily focused on bringing wells on production from our earlier 2026 drilling program. Although prolonged spring break-up conditions and unusually wet weather temporarily impacted our field operations, our teams executed well through the challenges, and we have built strong operational momentum during July. With two drilling rigs active in Peace River and one in Willesden Green, we are well positioned to execute our expanded $100.0 million development program through the balance of the year".

 

"We are also pleased to have closed the Belly River light oil acquisition in the Wilson Creek area of Willesden Green in late June. The addition of these high-quality, contiguous lands and production further strengthens our operating footprint and increases our scale in one of our core areas. The recent expansion of our syndicated credit facility combined with the successful issuance of an additional $75.0 million to our existing senior unsecured notes due in 2030, has further strengthened our financial position, providing us greater flexibility to capitalize on opportunities across our asset base. As we move through the second half of 2026, we remain focused on disciplined execution, operational excellence and delivering sustainable long-term value for our shareholders."

 

2026 SECOND QUARTER Highlights

 

Adjusted Funds flow from Operations ("AFFO") – The Company generated AFFO of $73.6 million ($1.10 per share basic) compared to $63.2 million ($0.90 per share basic) in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher realized oil prices, partially offset by higher risk management losses.
Funds Flow from Operations ("FFO") – The Company generated FFO of $67.8 million ($1.02 per share basic) compared to $65.8 million ($0.94 per share basic) in the second quarter of 2025. Similar to AFFO, the increase was mainly due to higher realized oil prices moderated by higher risk management losses, with the additional impact of a share-based compensation charge.

o
The Company recorded a $5.8 million share-based compensation charge, reflecting an unrealized loss on our prepaid equity forward contracts resulting from the change in our share price from $13.22 at March 31, 2026 to $11.61 at June 30, 2026. We have approximately 5.2 million shares contracted at a weighted average price of $9.65 per share.
Capital Program – Second quarter capital expenditures totaled $39.1 million (2025: $40.2 million), while decommissioning expenditures totaled $1.3 million (2025: $4.0 million). Development activities during the second quarter of 2026 focused on bringing wells on production in Willesden Green (Belly River) and Peace River (Clearwater), while advancing the start of our expanded second half development program.
Belly River Acquisition – On June 30, 2026, the Company closed the acquisition of Belly River light oil assets in the Wilson Creek area of Willesden Green (the "Belly River Acquisition"), adding approximately 2,500 boe/d of high-quality production (76% liquids, based on May 2026 production) and 35 net sections of land. Total consideration was $98.0 million (inclusive of closing adjustments) and was funded through available capacity under the Company's credit facility.
Net Operating Costs – Net operating costs were higher in the second quarter of 2026 at $14.49 per boe compared to $13.54 per boe in 2025, primarily due to higher trucking costs associated with our expanded Peace River production base. Water handling optimization initiatives implemented across our operations contributed to an approximately $0.50 per boe reduction in operating costs during the first half of 2026 compared to the second half of 2025. We continue to identify opportunities to enhance our water handling infrastructure, reduce trucking requirements, and further improve operating efficiencies.
G&A Costs – General and administrative ("G&A") costs remained consistent in the second quarter of 2026 at $5.2 million, or $2.05 per boe, compared to $5.0 million, or $1.92 per boe, in the second quarter of 2025.
Net Debt – Net debt levels increased to $353.6 million at June 30, 2026, compared to $240.1 million at December 31, 2025 mainly due to the $98.0 million Belly River Acquisition.
o
In June 2026, the Company increased the aggregate amount available under our syndicated credit facility to $275.0 million from $235.0 million. The revolving period and maturity dates for our syndicated credit facility remain unchanged at May 31, 2027 and May 31, 2028, respectively.
o
Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company issued an additional $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of our existing 8.125% senior unsecured notes due December 3, 2030 (the "Notes"), bringing the total aggregate principal amount outstanding to $250.0 million. The effective yield of the new issuance was 7.186% and the net proceeds were used primarily to repay borrowings under the Company's syndicated credit facility.
Share Buyback Program – In the second quarter of 2026, approximately 0.1 million shares were repurchased and cancelled for $2.1 million (at an average price of $14.38 per share).
o
We have repurchased and cancelled approximately 18.9 million shares or 23% of our outstanding shares since our normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") program began in 2023 at an average price of $8.72 per share for $164.6 million.
Prepaid Equity Forward Program – We entered into prepaid equity forward contracts on a total of 715,000 shares during the second quarter of 2026 for $10.0 million or $14.03 per share.
o
Since launching this initiative in 2025, the Company has entered into prepaid equity forward contracts covering 5,210,000 shares at a weighted average price of $9.65 per share. These contracts mature in 2028 and 2029, however, we have the ability to monetize or extend them at our discretion, which provides the Company additional flexibility.

Net Income – The Company recorded net income of $42.0 million ($0.63 per share basic) in the second quarter of 2026 compared to net income of $15.3 million ($0.22 per share basic) in 2025. In 2026, net income was driven by strong production revenues mainly due to higher oil prices.

 

2026 SECOND QUARTER OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

The Company's second quarter program was focused on completing and tying in the wells drilled earlier in the year. While an extended spring break-up resulting from extremely wet conditions delayed certain activities and pushed the start of our second-half program, operations have resumed successfully. We currently have two drilling rigs active in Peace River and one in Willesden Green, positioning the Company for a strong second half of the year.

 

Key highlights are as follows:

 

Heavy Oil Highlights

Clearwater Waterflood – Waterflood pilots are now operational, with injectors online at our Nampa and West Dawson fields. Initial injection performance is meeting expectations, and the Company now has integrated waterflood projects online across three Clearwater operating areas: Dawson, West Dawson, and Nampa.
o
During the quarter, we drilled and rig-released seven (7.0 net) wells on the integrated Dawson 05-13 Clearwater pad, comprising three (3.0 net) producer wells and four (4.0 net) injector wells.
Operations Update – Development activity in Peace River advanced during the quarter, with five (5.0 net) producer wells brought on production. The West Dawson 09-21 Clearwater pad delivered strong initial production results, while simultaneous operations at the Dawson 05-13 Clearwater pad enabled all producer wells to be brought on production prior to drilling rig release, improving efficiency.
Production Results – Initial production results for the five (5.0 net) wells brought on production during the second quarter of 2026 were as follows:
o
West Dawson 09-21 Clearwater pad – Two (2.0 net) wells achieved an average IP30 of 299 boe/d per well (100% oil).
o
Dawson 05-13 Clearwater pad – Three (3.0 net) wells brought online delivering an average IP30 rate of 148 boe/d per well (100% oil).

Light Oil Highlights

Crimson Development One (1.0 net) well on the two-well Crimson 01-05 Belly River pad was rig-released during the second quarter, with drilling of the second well continuing into the third quarter.
Open Creek Results – The three (3.0 net) wells on the Open Creek 06-04 Belly River pad delivered an average IP30 of 177 boe/d per well (71% liquids) and an average IP60 of 256 boe/d per well (69% liquids). Production improved through the early flowback period despite initial startup challenges. The wells were also drilled with shorter lateral lengths than those planned for the Company's future Belly River development.

Production Enhancements - Optimization efforts on the Open Creek 11-28 Belly River pad have resulted in a significant improvement in overall well productivity, leading to new peak production rates after 120 days of production. Prior to the surface reconfiguration, the two (2.0 net) wells averaged sales rates of 289 boe/d (51% liquids) over the preceding 30 days. Following the reconfiguration, production has increased to an average of 529 boe/d (51% liquids) over the last 20 days. The modifications focused on improving produced sand management and reducing associated flow restrictions. Based on these results, these design improvements will be incorporated into future well and facility designs where applicable.
Belly River Acquisition – The acquisition of the Wilson Creek asset closed on June 30, with work underway to optimize the acquired production and inventory into the Company's development program. The Company is planning a six-well development program on the acquired lands starting in early 2027.

ADDITIONAL READER ADVISORIES

OIL AND GAS INFORMATION ADVISORY

 

Barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency conversion ratio of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis is misleading as an indication of value.

 

TEST RESULTS AND INITIAL PRODUCTION RATES

 

Test results and initial production rates disclosed herein, particularly those short in duration, may not necessarily be indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. Readers are cautioned that short-term rates should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance of these wells and therefore should not be relied upon for investment or other purposes. A pressure transient analysis or well-test interpretation has not been carried out and thus certain of the test results provided herein should be considered preliminary until such analysis or interpretation has been completed.

 

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

Throughout this news release and in other materials disclosed by the Company, we employ certain measures to analyze financial performance, financial position, and cash flow. These non-GAAP and other financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other issuers. The non-GAAP and other financial measures should not be considered to be more meaningful than GAAP measures which are determined in accordance with IFRS, such as net income and cash flow from operating activities as indicators of our performance. The interim consolidated financial statements and MD&A for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, will be available in due course on the Company's website at www.obsidianenergy.com and under our SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov. The disclosure under the section ’Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures’ in the MD&A is incorporated by reference into this news release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The following measures are non-GAAP financial measures: AFFO; FFO, free cash flow (“FCF”), netback, net debt and net operating costs. These non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized financial measures under IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. See the disclosure under the section ’Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures’ in our MD&A for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, for an explanation of the composition of these measures, how these measures provide useful information to an investor, and the additional purposes, if any, for which management uses these measures.

For a reconciliation of AFFO to cash flow from operating activities, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS, see ’Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliations’ below.

 

For a reconciliation of FFO to cash flow from operating activities, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS, see ’Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliations’ below.

 

For a reconciliation of FCF to cash flow from operating activities, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS, see ’Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliations’ below.

 

For a reconciliation of netback to sales price, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS, see ’Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliations’ below.

For a reconciliation of net debt to long-term debt, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS, see ’Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliations’ below.

For a reconciliation of net operating costs to operating costs, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS, see ’Non-GAAP Measures Reconciliations’ below.

Non-GAAP Ratios

 

The following measures are non-GAAP ratios: AFFO (basic per share ($/share) and diluted per share ($/share)), which use AFFO as a component; FFO (basic per share ($/share) and diluted per share ($/share)), which use FFO as a component; netback ($/boe), which uses netback as a component; net debt to FFO, which uses net debt and FFO as components; and net operating costs ($/boe), which uses net operating costs as a component. These non-GAAP ratios are not standardized financial measures under IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. See the disclosure under the section ’Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures’ in our MD&A for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, for an explanation of the composition of these non-GAAP ratios, how these non-GAAP ratios provide useful information to an investor, and the additional purposes, if any, for which management uses these non-GAAP ratios.

 

Supplementary Financial Measures

 

The following measures are supplementary financial measures: average sales price; cash flow from operating activities (basic per share and diluted per share); and G&A costs ($/boe). See the disclosure under the section ’Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures’ in our MD&A for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, for an explanation of the composition of these measures.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain statements contained in this document constitute forward-looking statements or information (collectively “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of the "safe harbour" provisions of applicable securities legislation. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “anticipate”, “continue”, “estimate”, “expect”, “forecast”, “budget”, “may”, “will”, “project”, “could”, “plan”, “intend”, “should”, “believe”, “outlook”, “objective”, “aim”, “potential”, “target” and similar words suggesting future events or future performance. In addition, statements relating to “reserves” or “resources” are deemed to be forward-looking statements 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. In particular, this document contains forward-looking statements pertaining to, without limitation, the following: our expectations for executing on our expanded development program for the balance of 2026 and delivering long-term value for our shareholders; how our recent changes in our debt structure creates greater flexibility to capitalize on opportunities across our asset base; how we plan to improve our operating efficiencies; our expectations in connection with our prepaid equity forward program; our expectations and opportunities for our production optimization program; our expected rig start, release and on production dates; our expected development program; our hedges; and that we will file our updated corporate presentation and interim consolidated financial statements and MD&A on our website, SEDAR+ and EDGAR in due course.

With respect to forward-looking statements contained in this document, the Company has made assumptions regarding, among other things: the duration and impact of tariffs that are currently in effect on goods exported from or imported into Canada, and that other than the tariffs that are currently in effect, neither the U.S. nor Canada (i) increases the rate or scope of such tariffs, reenacts tariffs that are currently suspended, or imposes new tariffs, on the import of goods from one country to the other, including on oil and natural gas, and/or (ii) imposes any other form of tax, restriction or prohibition on the import or export of products from one country to the other, including on oil and natural gas; that the Company does not dispose of or acquire material producing properties or royalties or other interests therein (except as disclosed herein); that regional and/or global health related events will not have any adverse impact on energy demand and commodity prices in the future; global energy policies going forward, including the continued ability and willingness of members of OPEC and other nations to agree on and adhere to production quotas from time to time; our ability to execute our plans as described herein and in our other disclosure documents, and the impact that the successful execution of such plans will have on our Company and our stakeholders, including our ability to return capital to shareholders and/or further reduce debt levels; future capital expenditure and decommissioning expenditure levels; expectations and assumptions concerning applicable laws and regulations, including with respect to environmental, safety and tax matters; future operating costs and G&A costs and the impact of inflation thereon; future oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas prices and differentials between light, medium and heavy oil prices and Canadian, WTI and world oil and natural gas prices; future hedging activities; future oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas production levels; future exchange rates, interest rates and inflation rates; future debt levels; our ability to execute our capital programs as planned without significant adverse impacts from various factors beyond our control, including extreme weather events such as wild fires, flooding and drought, infrastructure access (including the potential for blockades or other activism) and delays in obtaining regulatory approvals and

third party consents; the ability of the Company's contractual counterparties to perform their contractual obligations; our ability to obtain equipment in a timely manner to carry out development activities and the costs thereof; our ability to market our oil and natural gas successfully to current and new customers; our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms, including our ability (if necessary) to extend the revolving period and term out period of our credit facility, our ability to maintain the existing borrowing base under our credit facility, our ability (if necessary) to replace our syndicated bank facility and our ability (if necessary) to finance the repayment of our senior unsecured notes on maturity or pursuant to the terms of the underlying agreement; the accuracy of our estimated reserve volumes; and our ability to add production and reserves through our development and exploitation activities.

The future acquisition by the Company of the Company's common shares pursuant to its share buyback program (including through its NCIB), if any, and the level thereof is uncertain. Any decision to acquire common shares of the Company pursuant to the share buyback program will be subject to the discretion of the board of directors of the Company and may depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the Company's business performance, financial condition, financial requirements, growth plans, expected capital requirements and other conditions existing at such future time including, without limitation, contractual restrictions and satisfaction of the solvency tests imposed on the Company under applicable corporate law. There can be no assurance of the number of common shares of the Company that the Company will acquire pursuant to its share buyback program, if any, in the future.

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this document, and the assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are made, are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements included in this document, as there can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which the forward-looking statements are based will occur. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties that contribute to the possibility that the forward-looking statements contained herein will not be correct, which may cause our actual performance and financial results in future periods to differ materially from any estimates or projections of future performance or results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things: the risk that (i) the tariffs that are currently in effect on goods exported from or imported into Canada continue in effect for an extended period of time, the tariffs that have been threatened are implemented, that tariffs that are currently suspended are reactivated, the rate or scope of tariffs are increased, or new tariffs are imposed, including on oil and natural gas, (ii) the U.S. and/or Canada imposes any other form of tax, restriction or prohibition on the import or export of products from one country to the other, including on oil and natural gas, and (iii) the tariffs imposed or threatened to be imposed by the U.S. on other countries and retaliatory tariffs imposed or threatened to be imposed by other countries on the U.S., will trigger a broader global trade war which could have a material adverse effect on the Canadian, U.S. and global economies, and by extension the Canadian oil and natural gas industry and the Company, including by decreasing demand for (and the price of) oil and natural gas, disrupting supply chains, increasing costs, causing volatility in global financial markets, and limiting access to financing; risks associated with the refusal of the U.S. to renew the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement ("CUSMA") by the July 1, 2026 deadline, including the risk that the U.S. ultimately withdrawing from CUSMA, which could result in a significant increase in trade barriers, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Canadian and U.S. economies, and by extension the Canadian oil and natural gas industry and the Company; the possibility that we change our budgets (including our capital expenditure budgets) in response to internal and external factors, including those described herein; the possibility that the Company will not be able to continue to successfully execute our business plans and strategies in part or in full, and the possibility that some or all of the benefits that the Company anticipates will accrue to our Company and our stakeholders as a result of the successful execution of such plans and strategies do not materialize (such as our inability to return capital to shareholders and/or reduce debt levels to the extent anticipated or at all); the impact on energy demand and commodity prices of regional and/or global health related events and the responses of governments and the public thereto, including the risk that the amount of energy demand destruction and/or the length of the decreased demand exceeds our expectations; the risk that the financial capacity of the Company's contractual counterparties is adversely affected and potentially their ability to perform their

contractual obligations; the possibility that the revolving period and/or term out period of our credit facility and the maturity date of our senior unsecured notes is not extended (if necessary), that the borrowing base under our credit facility is reduced, that the Company is unable to renew or refinance our credit facilities on acceptable terms or at all and/or finance the repayment of our senior unsecured notes when they mature on acceptable terms or at all and/or obtain new debt and/or equity financing to replace our credit facilities and/or senior unsecured notes or to fund other activities; the possibility that we are unable to complete one or more repurchase offers pursuant to our senior unsecured notes when otherwise required to do so; the possibility that we are forced to shut-in production, whether due to commodity prices decreasing, extreme weather events such as wild fires, inability to access our properties due to blockades or other activism, or other factors; the risk that OPEC and other nations fail to agree on and/or adhere to production quotas from time to time that are sufficient to balance supply and demand fundamentals for oil; general economic and political conditions in Canada, the U.S. and globally, and in particular, the effect that those conditions have on commodity prices and our access to capital; industry conditions, including fluctuations in the price of oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas, price differentials for oil and natural gas produced in Canada as compared to other markets, and transportation restrictions, including pipeline and railway capacity constraints; fluctuations in foreign exchange, including the impact of the Canadian/U.S. dollar exchange rate on our revenues and expenses; fluctuations in interest rates, including the effects of interest rates on our borrowing costs and on economic activity, and including the risk that elevated interest rates cause or contribute to the onset of a recession; the risk that our costs increase due to inflation, supply chain disruptions, scarcity of labour and/or other factors, adversely affecting our profitability; unanticipated operating events or environmental events that can reduce production or cause production to be shut-in or delayed (including extreme cold during winter months, wild fires, flooding and droughts (which could limit our access to the water we require for our operations)); the risk that wars and other armed conflicts adversely affect world economies and the demand for oil and natural gas, including the ongoing war between Russian and Ukraine and/or hostilities in the Middle East, particularly between Iran, the United States and Israel; the possibility that fuel conservation measures, alternative fuel requirements, increasing consumer demand for alternatives to hydrocarbons, government mandates requiring the sale of electric vehicles and/or electrification of the power grid, and technological advances in fuel economy and renewable energy generation systems could permanently reduce the demand for oil and natural gas and/or permanently impair the Company's ability to obtain financing and/or insurance on acceptable terms or at all, and the possibility that some or all of these risks are heightened as a result of the response of governments, financial institutions and consumers to a regional and/or global health related event and/or the influence of public opinion and/or special interest groups.

Exhibit 99.2

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026

This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) of Obsidian Energy Ltd. (“Obsidian Energy”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) should be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2025. The date of this MD&A is July 29, 2026. All dollar amounts contained in this MD&A are expressed in millions of Canadian dollars unless noted otherwise.

 

Throughout this MD&A and in other materials disclosed by the Company, we adhere to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), however the Company also employs certain non-GAAP measures to analyze financial performance, financial position, and cash flow, including funds flow from operations, adjusted funds flow from operations, netback, sales, gross revenues, net operating costs, net debt and free cash flow. Additionally, other financial measures are also used to analyze performance. These non-GAAP and other financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other issuers. The non-GAAP and other financial measures should not be considered to be more meaningful than GAAP measures which are determined in accordance with IFRS, such as net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities, as indicators of our performance.

 

This MD&A also contains oil and natural gas information and forward-looking statements. Please see the Company's disclosure under the headings "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures", "Oil and Natural Gas Information", and "Forward-Looking Statements" included at the end of this MD&A.

Funds flow from operations and adjusted funds flow from operations in Q2 2026 increased from Q2 2025, primarily due to higher realized oil prices, which was partially offset by higher realized risk management losses. Cash flow from operating activities decreased from Q2 2025 due to the purchase of prepaid equity forward contracts to mitigate share-based compensation exposure and higher realized risk management losses.

 

For the first six months of 2026, cash flow from operating activities, funds flow from operations and adjusted funds flow from operations decreased compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to lower production volumes resulting from the disposition of our operated Pembina assets (the "Pembina Disposition") at the beginning of Q2 2025, which was partially offset by higher oil prices.

 

Belly River Acquisition

On June 30, 2026, the Company closed an asset acquisition to acquire high-return Belly River light oil assets in the Wilson Creek area of Willesden Green (the “Belly River Acquisition”), which included approximately 2,500 boe/d of Belly River production (based on May 2026 production) and 35 net sections of land. Total consideration paid was $98.0 million, inclusive of closing adjustments. This acquisition complements our existing lands, adding a number of drilling locations and further supporting our growth strategy in the Willesden Green area.

 

OBSIDIAN ENERGY SECOND QUARTER 2026

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 2

 


 

In addition, a contingent value payment (“CVP”) of up to $7.0 million may be payable in quarterly installments of up to $1.75 million from Q3 2026 through to Q2 2027, subject to a range of average West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") oil prices in the applicable quarter. At June 30, 2026, based on forecasted WTI prices, no value was ascribed to the CVPs.

Pembina Disposition

On April 7, 2025, the Company closed the Pembina Disposition to InPlay Oil Corp. ("InPlay") of our operated Pembina (Cardium) assets (the "Pembina Assets"). Total consideration for the transaction included $208.3 million of cash (inclusive of final closing adjustments), 9,139,784 common shares of InPlay, after giving effect to InPlay's consolidation of its common shares on a one for six basis effective April 14, 2025, ("InPlay Shares") and a $14.7 million value associated with acquiring InPlay's 34.6 percent interest in the Willesden Green Cardium Unit #2 property. The transaction included all the Company's assets in Pembina, with the exception of our non-operated interest in Pembina Cardium Unit #11 which we retained. As part of the transaction, InPlay assumed all assets and liabilities associated with the Pembina Assets, including the Company’s decommissioning liabilities.

In August 2025, the Company closed the sale of all of our InPlay Shares to a third party, for proceeds of $91.4 million, resulting in a $15.2 million gain.

This transaction further strengthened our balance sheet while reducing our decommissioning liabilities by over 50 percent, with the cash proceeds from the transaction used to initially pay down outstanding debt on our syndicated credit facility at closing and subsequently used to accelerate our share buyback program.

Business Strategy

The Company has a high-quality, balanced portfolio of heavy and light oil assets with significant development opportunities that support our long-term growth strategy. In Peace River, over the past few years, we have more than doubled production through a focused development program. With a land base of more than 830 net sections, we expect to continue growing Clearwater and Bluesky production through the development and delineation of existing and new fields. We also continue to advance our enhanced oil recovery strategy through waterflood initiatives and are encouraged by the results to date. Building on this success, we have expanded these initiatives in the first half of 2026 and expect to further advance our enhanced oil recovery program in the second half of the year.

 

In Willesden Green, we also expect to grow our light oil production through ongoing development. The Company began developing the Belly River formation in 2025 and expanded development activity in the formation in the first half of 2026, supported by strong results and expanded infrastructure. Our recent Belly River Acquisition in the area further strengthens this opportunity, and we expect to accelerate growth by leveraging our larger production base and expanded operational footprint. The pace of future development across our heavy and light oil assets will depend on the macroeconomic environment, including commodity prices and service costs, as we seek to generate attractive returns while maintaining the Company's financial strength.

 

Alongside investing in high-return development opportunities, we remain committed to disciplined capital allocation and enhancing shareholder returns. In 2023, we launched our return of capital initiative through our normal course issuer bid ("NCIB"). The NCIB has enhanced shareholder returns through a disciplined focus on per-share growth. Repurchases under the NCIB are subject to maintaining at least $65 million of liquidity and complying with the terms of our current credit facilities. Since launching the NCIB in 2023, we have repurchased and cancelled approximately 18.9 million common shares, representing approximately 23 percent of the shares outstanding when the program commenced, for total consideration of $164.6 million.

 

In addition to our NCIB, we have implemented capital management initiatives to support shareholder value and manage financial risk. In 2025, the Company began mitigating its share-based compensation exposure by entering into prepaid equity forward contracts. To date, the Company has entered into prepaid equity forward contracts covering a total of 5,210,000 shares at a weighted average share price of $9.65. The contracts expire between 2028 and 2029; however, the Company may monetize them at its discretion prior to expiry.

 

Beyond investing in our asset base and returning capital to shareholders, we remain committed to responsible environmental stewardship. We continued with our environmental remediation efforts in the first half of 2026 with a focus on abandoning and reclaiming inactive fields.

Oil

 

WTI averaged US$92.79/bbl during Q2 2026. Prices began the quarter at approximately US$98.00/bbl in April, peaked above US$110.00/bbl in early April, before declining to approximately US$70.00/bbl range in June. The decline was primarily driven by the ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran, which eased concerns over supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz and allowed additional oil supply to return to the global market.

 

WCS differentials remained relatively stable during Q2 2026, averaging US$14.61/bbl compared to US$14.13/bbl in Q1 2026. In contrast, MSW traded at an average premium of US$2.52/bbl to WTI whereas it usually trades at a discount. The ongoing conflict in the Middle East kept significant light oil production offline, supporting demand for light oil from Western Canada and contributing to the premium.

Natural Gas

 

The average NYMEX futures price was US$2.90/MMBtu during Q2 2026. In Alberta, AECO 5A prices averaged CAD$1.63/mcf in Q2 2026, down from CAD$2.01/mcf in Q1. The decline in Alberta natural gas prices was driven by strong natural gas supply and seasonally lower demand during the shoulder season.

Production decreased in Q2 2026 compared to the corresponding period in 2025, primarily due to a reduced capital program in the second half of 2025 and a prolonged spring break-up and extremely wet conditions in Q2 2026 resulted in delays to certain tie-in and optimization activities. For the first six months of 2026 versus 2025, production decreased primarily due to the Pembina Disposition, which closed at the beginning of Q2 2025. Prior to the disposition, the Pembina Assets produced approximately 11,000 boe/d in Q1 2025, consisting of light oil, NGLs and natural gas.

 

In the first six months of 2026, we drilled 28 (25.8 net) wells, including injector wells and non-operated activity, and a total of 29 (23.5 net) wells were brought on production.

The Company's netback per boe increased in Q2 2026 compared to Q2 2025, primarily due to higher realized oil prices, partially offset by increased royalties and realized risk management losses on oil hedges. For the first six months of 2026, the Company's netback per boe decreased slightly from the corresponding period in 2025, primarily because the positive impact of higher realized oil prices was more than offset by higher realized risk management losses, royalties, and transportation costs.

The Company's production revenues and gross revenues were higher in Q2 2026 compared to Q2 2025 due to higher realized oil prices.

 

For the first six months of 2026, the Company's production revenues were relatively consistent with the comparable period in 2025, as higher realized oil prices were offset by lower production volumes resulting from the Pembina Disposition, which closed at the beginning of Q2 2025. Gross revenues were further impacted by realized risk management losses on outstanding oil hedges.

The increase in absolute royalties and average royalty rate for Q2 2026 compared to Q2 2025 was primarily attributed to higher oil prices.

 

In the first six months of 2026, absolute royalties and the average royalty rate decreased compared with the same period in 2025, primarily reflecting production from new wells subject to royalty holidays, which carry lower royalty rates.

Non-GAAP financial measure. See “Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures”.

 

Operating and net operating costs in Q2 2026 were relatively unchanged compared to Q2 2025, as the sale of higher-cost production pursuant to the Pembina Disposition was largely offset by growth in Peace River production, which carries higher water handling costs. For the first six months of 2026, operating and net operating costs decreased compared to the corresponding period in 2025, primarily due to the impact of the Pembina Disposition, which closed at the beginning of Q2 2025.

 

To further improve operating efficiencies, the Company has focused on reducing trucking costs through water handling initiatives in Peace River during the first half of 2026. We are successfully implementing several initiatives and will continue to expand these efforts as we further grow our Peace River production base, thereby supporting continued improvements in operating efficiencies.

Transportation

 

The Company continues to utilize multiple sales points in the Peace River area to increase realized prices. New wells drilled in the Peace River area over the past year resulted in higher production and thus higher transportation costs on a per boe basis in the first six months of 2026 compared to the 2025 comparable period. On an absolute basis transportation costs are roughly flat in the 2026 periods compared to the 2025 comparable periods. The prolonged spring break-up conditions impacted Peace River trucking costs in Q2 2026 and contributed to higher costs, while the Pembina Disposition in early Q2 2025 removed costs from that point forward.

Obsidian Energy’s debt structure includes short-term borrowings under our syndicated credit facility and term financing through our senior unsecured notes. Interest charges were lower in the first half of 2026 compared to first half of 2025 mainly due to lower drawings on our syndicated credit facility following the Pembina Disposition as the proceeds received from the transaction were used to reduce the amount outstanding under our syndicated credit facility.

 

The Company has a reserve-based syndicated credit facility which is subject to a semi-annual borrowing base redetermination (typically completed in May and November of each year). The aggregate amount available under the syndicated credit facility is $275.0 million, which was increased in Q2 2026 from $235.0 million. The current revolving period and maturity dates are May 31, 2027, and May 31, 2028, respectively.

 

At June 30, 2026, the Company had $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.125% senior unsecured notes outstanding, maturing on December 3, 2030 (the "Notes"). Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company issued an additional $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of our existing Notes. The additional Notes were issued at a price of 102.75 resulting in an effective yield of 7.186% and gross proceeds of $77.1 million which were used to reduce drawings under our syndicated credit facility. Following the issuance, the aggregate principal amount outstanding of Notes increased to $250.0 million. The Notes constitute direct senior unsecured obligations of Obsidian Energy and rank equally with all of the Company's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness.

At June 30, 2026, letters of credit totaling $2.5 million were outstanding (December 31, 2025 – $2.5 million) that reduce the amount otherwise available to be drawn on our syndicated credit facility.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

Share-based compensation expense relates to options ("Options") to acquire common shares granted under the Company's Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”), restricted share units (“RSUs") granted under the Restricted and Performance Share Unit Plan (“RPSU plan”), deferred share units ("DSUs") granted under the Deferred Share Unit Plan (“DSU plan”), performance share units (“PSUs”) granted under the RPSU plan and unrealized gains or losses under the equity forward contracts.

Relates to the equity forward contracts entered into to mitigate the Company's exposure to our share-based compensation plans.

 

The DSU and PSU obligations are measured at fair value based on the Company's share price at the balance sheet date. At June 30, 2026, the share price used to measure these obligations was $11.61 per share, compared to $13.22 per share at March 31, 2026, $8.42 per share at December 31, 2025, and $7.58 per share at June 30, 2025.

 

Unrealized gains and losses on the prepaid equity forward contracts are measured by comparing the contracts' fair value at each reporting date, including the change in fair value of contracts purchased during the period. Realized gains and losses are recognized only upon settlement.

 

The unrealized gain for the first six months of 2026 was based on the June 30, 2026, closing share price of $11.61 per share compared to the weighted average forward price for all of our equity forward contracts of $9.65 per share. For Q2 2026, the unrealized loss recognized in the period reflected quarter-over-quarter changes in our share price, including the impact of equity forward contracts entered into during the quarter at an average fair value of $13.33 per share.

The Company's D&D expense increased in the 2026 periods compared to the corresponding periods in 2025, primarily due to the Pembina Assets being classified as held for sale prior to their disposition in 2025 and, accordingly, were no longer subject to depletion before the transaction closed.

 

During the first six months of 2026, we recorded a $0.3 million impairment (2025 - $14.2 million impairment reversal) in our Legacy cash generating unit ("Legacy CGU") due to changes in the decommissioning liability in the area. The Legacy CGU has no recoverable amount, as such changes in our decommissioning liability are either expensed or recovered each period.

The deferred income tax expense in the 2026 and 2025 periods was due to the Company’s net income and resultant reduction of our deferred income tax asset.

Net income for Q2 2026 was higher than Q2 2025 primarily as a result of higher realized oil prices, which increased production revenues, although this was partially offset by higher risk management losses.

 

For the first six months of 2026, net income was lower than 2025 primarily as the result of a risk management loss on our outstanding hedging position, which was partially offset by lower royalties, operating costs and depletion due to lower production as a result of the Pembina disposition.

In Q2 2026, capital expenditures were primarily directed toward completing and tying in wells drilled earlier in the year in Peace River and Willesden Green, while also furthering our Peace River waterflood initiatives. Overall, capital expenditures were relatively consistent with Q2 2025.

 

For the first six months of 2026, the Company took a disciplined approach to capital spending, moderating activity during Q1 2026 in response to lower commodity prices while preserving the flexibility to advance its development program in the second half of 2026 as market conditions improved.

 

For the first six months of 2026, 29 (23.5 net) wells were brought on production, including operated and non-operated activities, which included 10 (10.0 net) wells in Peace River, 9 (9.0 net) wells in Willesden Green and 10 (4.5 net) wells in PCU #11.

Environmental and Climate Change

 

The oil and natural gas industry has a number of environmental risks and hazards and is subject to regulation by all levels of government. Environmental legislation includes, but is not limited to, operational controls, site rehabilitation requirements and restrictions on emissions of various substances produced in association with oil and natural gas operations. Compliance with such legislation is expected to require additional expenditures and a failure to comply may result in fines and penalties which could, in the aggregate and under certain assumptions, become material.

Obsidian Energy monitors our operations for environmental impacts and allocates capital to reclamation and other activities to mitigate the impact on the areas in which the Company operates. The Company follows the Alberta Energy Regulator guidance under Directive 088 where a minimum amount of spending is required to abandon inactive sites.

Net debt increased compared to December 31, 2025, primarily as a result of higher drawings under our syndicated credit facility due to the Belly River Acquisition and our return of capital initiative through our share buyback program and the purchase of prepaid equity forwards contracts.

 

Liquidity

 

The Company has a reserve-based syndicated credit facility with a borrowing limit of $275.0 million (increased from $235.0 million) and $250.0 million of senior unsecured notes, including the July 2026 add-on note issuance of $75.0 million, maturing in December 2030. For further details on the Company’s debt instruments please refer to the “Financing” section of this MD&A.

The Company actively manages our debt portfolio and considers opportunities to reduce or diversify our debt capital structure. In December 2025, we refinanced our existing senior unsecured notes, which provided additional term to our debt structure and additional proceeds, which we used to largely pay down our syndicated credit facility and increase the overall liquidity of the Company. With the $75.0 million note add-on in July, we reduced borrowings under our syndicated credit facility and further increased our liquidity. Management contemplates both operating and financial risks and takes action as appropriate to limit the Company’s exposure to certain risks. Management maintains close relationships with the Company’s lenders and agents to monitor credit market developments. These actions and plans aim to increase the likelihood of maintaining the Company’s financial flexibility and an appropriate capital program, supporting the Company’s ongoing operations and ability to execute longer-term business strategies.

Prepaid Equity Forward Contracts

 

Obsidian Energy is exposed to equity price risk on our common share price in relation to our share-based compensation plans. Given the value of our share-based compensation plans fluctuates based on the Company’s common share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") at each period end date, beginning in Q3 2025, the Company began mitigating this exposure by entering into equity forward contracts. Unrealized and realized gains/losses on our equity forward contracts for the period are recorded through share-based compensation.

OBSIDIAN ENERGY SECOND QUARTER 2026

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 16

 


 

Based on commodity prices and contracts in place at June 30, 2026, the Company notes the following sensitivities:

a $1.00 change in the price per barrel of liquids would change pre-tax unrealized risk management by $0.5 million;
a $0.10 change in the price per mcf of natural gas would change pre-tax unrealized risk management by $0.5 million;
a $0.01 change in the CAD/US foreign exchange rate would change pre-tax unrealized risk management by $0.3 million; and
a $1.00 change in our share price would change pre-tax unrealized risk management by $5.2 million.

 

Sensitivity Analysis

 

Estimated sensitivities to selected key assumptions on funds flow from operations for the 12 months subsequent to the date of this MD&A, including risk management contracts entered into to date, are based on forecasted results.

The 2028 figure includes our syndicated credit facility which has a term-out date of May 2028. The 2030 figure includes our senior unsecured notes due in December 2030. Refer to the Financing section above for further details. Historically, the Company has successfully renewed our syndicated credit facility.

These amounts represent the inflated, discounted future reclamation and abandonment costs that are expected to be incurred over the life of the Company’s properties.

 

 

OBSIDIAN ENERGY SECOND QUARTER 2026

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 17

 


 

At June 30, 2026, the Company had an aggregate of $175.0 million in senior unsecured notes maturing in December 2030 and the revolving period of our syndicated credit facility was May 31, 2027, with a term out period to May 31, 2028. In July 2026 the Company issued an additional $75.0 million in senior unsecured notes also maturing in December 2030. In the future, if the Company is unsuccessful in renewing or replacing the syndicated credit facility or obtaining alternate funding for some or all of the maturing amounts of the senior unsecured notes, it is possible that we could be required to seek other sources of financing, including other forms of debt or equity arrangements if available. Please see the Financing section of this MD&A for further details regarding our outstanding debt instruments.

 

The Company is involved in various litigation and claims in the normal course of business and records provisions for claims as required.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”)

 

Obsidian Energy’s senior management has evaluated whether there were any changes in the Company's ICFR that occurred during the period beginning on April 1, 2026 and ending on June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's ICFR. No changes to the Company’s ICFR were made during the quarter.

 

Off-Balance-Sheet Financing

 

Obsidian Energy has off-balance-sheet financing arrangements consisting of operating leases. The operating lease payments are summarized in the Contractual Obligations and Commitments section.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures

 

Throughout this MD&A and in other materials disclosed by the Company, we employ certain measures to analyze financial performance, financial position, and cash flow. These non-GAAP and other financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other issuers. The non-GAAP and other financial measures should not be considered to be more meaningful than GAAP measures which are determined in accordance with IFRS, such as net income (loss) and cash flow from operating activities, as indicators of our performance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

“Adjusted funds flow from operations” is cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital, decommissioning expenditures, equity forward contracts, onerous office lease settlements, the effects of financing related transactions from foreign exchange contracts and debt repayments, restructuring, transaction costs, certain other revenues and expenses and the impact on share based compensation of liability based incentive plans (includes the DSUs, PSUs and equity forward contracts gains and losses) and is representative of cash related to our underlying operations. Adjusted funds flow from operations is used to assess the Company’s ability to fund our planned capital programs. See “Cash flow from Operating Activities, Funds Flow from Operations, Adjusted funds flow from operations and Free Cash Flow” and "Reconciliation of Cash flow from operating activities to Funds flow from operations and Adjusted funds flow from operations" above for reconciliations of adjusted funds flow from operations to cash flow from operating activities, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

 

 

OBSIDIAN ENERGY SECOND QUARTER 2026

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 20

 


 

“Free cash flow” is adjusted funds flow from operations less both capital and decommissioning expenditures and the Company believes it is a useful measure to determine and indicate the funding available to Obsidian Energy for investing and financing activities, including the repayment of debt, reallocation to existing areas of operation, deployment into new ventures and return of capital to shareholders. See “Cash flow from Operating Activities, Funds Flow from Operations, Adjusted Funds Flow from Operations and Free Cash Flow” above for a reconciliation of free cash flow to cash flow from operating activities, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

 

“Funds flow from operations” is cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital, decommissioning expenditures, equity forward contracts, onerous office lease settlements, the effects of financing related transactions from foreign exchange contracts and debt repayments, restructuring, transaction costs and certain other revenues and expenses and is representative of cash related to our underlying operations. Funds flow from operations is used to assess the Company’s ability to fund our planned capital programs. See “Cash flow from Operating Activities, Funds Flow from Operations, Adjusted funds flow from operations and Free Cash Flow” and "Reconciliation of Cash flow from operating activities to Funds flow from operations and Adjusted funds flow from operations" above for reconciliations of funds flow from operations to cash flow from operating activities, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

“Gross revenues” are production revenues including realized risk management gains and losses on commodity contracts and adjusted for commodities purchased from third parties and sales of commodities purchased from third parties and is used to assess the cash realizations on commodity sales. See “Results of Operations – Production Revenues” above for a reconciliation of gross revenues to production revenues, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

"Sales” are production revenues plus sales of commodities purchased from third parties less commodities purchased from third parties and is used to assess the cash realizations on commodity sales before realized risk management gains and losses. See “Results of Operations – Production Revenues” above for a reconciliation of gross revenues and sales to production revenues, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

“Net debt” is the total of long-term debt and working capital deficiency and is used by the Company to assess our liquidity. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Net Debt” above for a reconciliation of net debt to long-term debt, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

“Net operating costs” are calculated by deducting processing fees and road use recoveries from operating costs and is used to assess the Company’s cost position. Processing fees are primarily generated by processing third party volumes at the Company’s facilities. In situations where the Company has excess capacity at a facility, it may agree with third parties to process their volumes to reduce the cost of operating/owning the facility. Road use recoveries are a cost recovery for the Company as we operate and maintain roads that are also used by third parties. See “Results of Operations – Expenses – Operating” above for a reconciliation of net operating costs to operating costs, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

“Netback” is production revenues plus sales of commodities purchased from third parties less commodities purchased from third parties (sales), less royalties, net operating costs, transportation expenses and realized risk management gains and losses, and is used in capital allocation decisions and to economically rank projects. See "Results of Operations – Netbacks" above for a reconciliation of netbacks to sales and "Results of Operations – Production Revenues" above for a reconciliation of sales to production revenues, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

Non-GAAP Ratios

 

“Adjusted funds flow from operations – basic per share” is comprised of adjusted funds flow from operations divided by basic weighted average common shares outstanding. Adjusted funds flow from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Cash flow from Operating Activities, Funds Flow from Operations, Adjusted Funds Flow from Operations and Free Cash Flow” and “Reconciliation of Cash flow from operating activities to Funds flow from operations and Adjusted Funds Flow from Operations” above.

“Adjusted funds flow from operations – diluted per share” is comprised of adjusted funds flow from operations divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Adjusted funds flow from operations is a

non-GAAP financial measure. See “Cash flow from Operating Activities, Funds Flow from Operations, Adjusted Funds Flow from Operations and Free Cash Flow” and “Reconciliation of Cash flow from operating activities to Funds flow from operations and Adjusted funds flow from Operations” above.

 

“Funds flow from operations – basic per share” is comprised of funds flow from operations divided by basic weighted average common shares outstanding. Funds flow from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Cash flow from Operating Activities, Funds Flow from Operations, Adjusted Funds Flow from Operations and Free Cash Flow” and “Reconciliation of Cash flow from operating activities to Funds flow from operations and Adjusted funds flow from operations” above.

“Funds flow from operations – diluted per share” is comprised of funds flow from operations divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Funds flow from operations is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Cash flow from Operating Activities, Funds Flow from Operations, Adjusted Funds Flow from Operations and Free Cash Flow” and “Reconciliation of Cash flow from operating activities to Funds flow from operations and Adjusted funds flow from operations” above.

“Net operating costs per bbl”, “Net operating costs per mcf” and “Net operating costs per boe” are net operating costs divided by weighted average daily production on a per bbl, per mcf or per boe basis, as applicable. Net operating costs is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Results of Operations – Expenses – Operating" above.

“Netback per bbl”, “Netback per mcf” and “Netback per boe” are netbacks divided by weighted average daily production on a per bbl, per mcf or per boe basis, as applicable. Management believes that netback per boe is a key industry performance measure of operational efficiency and provides investors with information that is also commonly presented by other oil and natural gas producers. Netback is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Results of Operations – Netbacks” above.

 

"Sales per boe" is sales divided by weighted average daily production on a per boe basis. Sales is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Results of Operations – Production Revenues" above.

 

Supplementary Financial Measures

 

Average sales prices for light oil, heavy oil, NGLs, total liquids and natural gas are supplementary financial measures calculated by dividing each of these components of production revenues by their respective production volumes for the periods.

“Cash flow from operating activities – basic per share” is comprised of cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by basic weighted average common shares outstanding.

“Cash flow from operating activities – diluted per share" is comprised of cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.

"G&A gross – per boe" is comprised of general and administrative expenses on a gross basis, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by boe for the period.

"G&A net – per boe" is comprised of general and administrative expenses on a net basis, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by boe for the period.

Oil and Natural Gas Information

 

Barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency conversion ratio of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis is misleading as an indication of value.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements contained in this document constitute forward-looking statements or information (collectively "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of the "safe harbour" provisions of applicable securities legislation. In particular, this document contains forward-looking statements pertaining to, without limitation, the following: the anticipated benefits of the Belly River Acquisition and our growth strategy in the Willesden Green area, including that we expect to accelerate growth by leveraging our larger production base and expanded operational footprint; the expected growth in production of our Clearwater and Bluesky assets through further development and delineation of existing and new fields; the belief that we have a balanced portfolio of heavy and light oil with significant development opportunities that support our long-term growth strategy; that we continue to progress our enhanced oil recovery strategy through our waterflood initiatives, that we are encouraged by our results of such initiatives, and the expected benefits of such initiatives; that we expect to further advance our enhanced oil recovery program in the second half of the year; the continued development of our light oil production in Willesden Green through ongoing development; that the Company's pace and level of future development and growth depend on the macroeconomic environment and the Company's intention to generate acceptable returns and maintain our financial strength; that we remain committed to disciplined capital allocation and enhancing shareholder returns; that we remain committed to responsible environmental stewardship and our environmental remediation efforts including our focus on abandoning and reclaiming inactive fields; our hedges; our expectation that entering into equity forward contracts will help reduce volatility in our funds flow from operations and adjusted funds flow from operations; our belief that our water handling initiatives will help reduce trucking costs, and that we will expand such initiatives as we further expand our Peace River production base; the expectation that compliance with environmental legislation will require additional expenditures and a failure to comply may result in fines and penalties and the effect of such fines and penalties; our intention to monitor our operations for environmental impacts and allocate capital to reclamation and other activities in the areas we operate; our intention to follow the Alberta Energy Regulator guidance under Directive 088; our intention to use multiple sales points in the Peace River area and the anticipated benefits in connection therewith; our expectations in connection with taxable profits and the Company's ability to utilize its remaining deferred tax asset balance; the terms and conditions under our syndicated credit facility and senior unsecured notes and our expectations if the Company is unsuccessful in renewing or replacing them in the future; our involvement with various litigation in the normal course of business and the anticipated effects thereof; how we plan to manage our debt portfolio; all information disclosed under "Sensitivity Analysis"; our future payment obligations as disclosed under "Contractual Obligations and Commitments"; that the Company actively manages our debt portfolio and considers opportunities to reduce or diversify our debt capital structure; that management contemplates both operating and financial risks and takes action as appropriate to limit the Company’s exposure to

 

OBSIDIAN ENERGY SECOND QUARTER 2026

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 23

 


 

certain risks; that management maintains close relationships with the Company's lenders and agents to monitor credit market developments, and these actions and plans aim to increase the likelihood of maintaining the Company's financial flexibility and capital program and the anticipated benefits in connection therewith; and that the Company limits credit risk by executing counterparty risk procedures which include transacting only with institutions within its syndicated credit facility or companies with high credit ratings, and by obtaining financial security in certain circumstances.

With respect to forward-looking statements contained in this document, the Company has made assumptions regarding, among other things: the duration and impact of tariffs that are currently in effect on goods exported from or imported into Canada, and that other than the tariffs that are currently in effect, neither the U.S. nor Canada (i) increases the rate or scope of such tariffs, reenacts tariffs that are currently suspended, or imposes new tariffs, on the import of goods from one country to the other, including on oil and natural gas, and/or (ii) imposes any other form of tax, restriction or prohibition on the import or export of products from one country to the other, including on oil and natural gas; that the Company does not dispose of or acquire material producing properties or royalties or other interests therein (except as disclosed herein); that regional and/or global health related events will not have any adverse impact on energy demand and commodity prices in the future; global energy policies going forward, including the continued ability and willingness of members of OPEC and other nations to agree on and adhere to production quotas from time to time; our ability to execute our plans as described herein and in our other disclosure documents, and the impact that the successful execution of such plans will have on our Company and our stakeholders, including our ability to return capital to shareholders and/or reduce debt levels; future capital expenditure and decommissioning expenditure levels; expectations and assumptions concerning applicable laws and regulations, including with respect to environmental, safety and tax matters; future operating costs and G&A costs and the impact of inflation thereon; future oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas prices and differentials between light, medium and heavy oil prices and Canadian, WTI and world oil and natural gas prices; future hedging activities; future oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas production levels; future exchange rates, interest rates and inflation rates; future debt levels; our ability to execute our capital programs as planned without significant adverse impacts from various factors beyond our control, including extreme weather events such as wild fires, flooding and drought, infrastructure access (including the potential for blockades or other activism) and delays in obtaining regulatory approvals and third party consents; the ability of the Company's contractual counterparties to perform their contractual obligations; our ability to obtain equipment in a timely manner to carry out development activities and the costs thereof; our ability to market our oil and natural gas successfully to current and new customers; our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms, including our ability (if necessary) to extend the revolving period and term out period of our credit facility, our ability to maintain the existing borrowing base under our credit facility, our ability (if necessary) to replace our syndicated bank facility and our ability (if necessary) to finance the repayment of our senior unsecured notes on maturity or pursuant to the terms of the underlying agreement; the accuracy of our estimated reserve volumes; and our ability to add production and reserves through our development and exploitation activities.

The future acquisition by the Company of the Company's common shares pursuant to its NCIB and the level thereof is uncertain. Any decision to acquire common shares of the Company pursuant to the NCIB will be subject to the discretion of the board of directors of the Company and may depend on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, the Company's business performance, financial condition, financial requirements, growth plans, expected capital requirements and other conditions existing at such future time including, without limitation, contractual restrictions and satisfaction of the solvency tests imposed on the Company under applicable corporate law. There can be no assurance of the number of common shares of the Company that the Company will acquire pursuant to its NCIB in the future.

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this document, and the assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are made, are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements included in this document, as there can be no assurance that the plans, intentions or expectations upon which the forward-looking statements are based will occur. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties that contribute to the possibility that the forward-looking statements contained herein will not be correct, which may cause our actual performance and financial results in future periods to differ materially from any estimates or projections of future performance or results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things: the risk that (i) the tariffs that are currently in effect on goods exported from or imported

 

OBSIDIAN ENERGY SECOND QUARTER 2026

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 24

 


 

into Canada continue in effect for an extended period of time, the tariffs that have been threatened are implemented, that tariffs that are currently suspended are reactivated, the rate or scope of tariffs are increased, or new tariffs are imposed, including on oil and natural gas, (ii) the U.S. and/or Canada imposes any other form of tax, restriction or prohibition on the import or export of products from one country to the other, including on oil and natural gas, and (iii) the tariffs imposed or threatened to be imposed by the U.S. on other countries and retaliatory tariffs imposed or threatened to be imposed by other countries on the U.S., will trigger a broader global trade war which could have a material adverse effect on the Canadian, U.S. and global economies, and by extension the Canadian oil and natural gas industry and the Company, including by decreasing demand for (and the price of) oil and natural gas, disrupting supply chains, increasing costs, causing volatility in global financial markets, and limiting access to financing; risks associated with the refusal of the U.S. to renew the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement ("CUSMA") by the July 1, 2026 deadline, including the risk that the U.S. ultimately withdrawing from CUSMA, which could result in a significant increase in trade barriers, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Canadian and U.S. economies, and by extension the Canadian oil and natural gas industry and the Company; the possibility that we change our budgets (including our capital expenditure budgets) in response to internal and external factors, including those described herein; the possibility that the Company will not be able to continue to successfully execute our business plans and strategies in part or in full, and the possibility that some or all of the benefits that the Company anticipates will accrue to our Company and our stakeholders as a result of the successful execution of such plans and strategies do not materialize (such as our inability to return capital to shareholders and/or reduce debt levels to the extent anticipated or at all); the impact on energy demand and commodity prices of regional and/or global health related events and the responses of governments and the public thereto, including the risk that the amount of energy demand destruction and/or the length of the decreased demand exceeds our expectations; the risk that the financial capacity of the Company's contractual counterparties is adversely affected and potentially their ability to perform their contractual obligations; the possibility that the revolving period and/or term out period of our credit facility and the maturity date of our senior unsecured notes is not extended (if necessary), that the borrowing base under our credit facility is reduced, that the Company is unable to renew or refinance our credit facilities on acceptable terms or at all and/or finance the repayment of our senior unsecured notes when they mature on acceptable terms or at all and/or obtain new debt and/or equity financing to replace our credit facilities and/or senior unsecured notes or to fund other activities; the possibility that we are forced to shut-in production, whether due to commodity prices decreasing, extreme weather events such as wild fires, inability to access our properties due to blockades or other activism, or other factors; the risk that OPEC and other nations fail to agree on and/or adhere to production quotas from time to time that are sufficient to balance supply and demand fundamentals for oil; general economic and political conditions in Canada, the U.S. and globally, and in particular, the effect that those conditions have on commodity prices and our access to capital; industry conditions, including fluctuations in the price of oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas, price differentials for oil and natural gas produced in Canada as compared to other markets, and transportation restrictions, including pipeline and railway capacity constraints; fluctuations in foreign exchange, including the impact of the Canadian/U.S. dollar exchange rate on our revenues and expenses; fluctuations in interest rates, including the effects of interest rates on our borrowing costs and on economic activity, and including the risk that elevated interest rates cause or contribute to the onset of a recession; the risk that our costs increase due to inflation, supply chain disruptions, scarcity of labour and/or other factors, adversely affecting our profitability; unanticipated operating events or environmental events that can reduce production or cause production to be shut-in or delayed (including extreme cold during winter months, wild fires, flooding and droughts (which could limit our access to the water we require for our operations)); the risk that wars and other armed conflicts adversely affect world economies and the demand for oil and natural gas, including the ongoing war between Russian and Ukraine and/or hostilities in the Middle East, particularly between Iran, the United States and Israel; the possibility that fuel conservation measures, alternative fuel requirements, increasing consumer demand for alternatives to hydrocarbons, government mandates requiring the sale of electric vehicles and/or electrification of the power grid, and technological advances in fuel economy and renewable energy generation systems could permanently reduce the demand for oil and natural gas and/or permanently impair the Company's ability to obtain financing and/or insurance on acceptable terms or at all, and the possibility that some or all of these risks are heightened as a result of the response of governments, financial institutions and consumers to a regional and/or global health related event and/or the influence of public opinion and/or special interest groups; and the other factors described under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Information Form and described in our public filings, available in Canada at www.sedarplus.ca and in the United States at www.sec.gov. Readers are cautioned that this list of risk factors should not be construed as exhaustive.

The forward-looking statements contained in this document speak only as of the date of this document. Except as expressly required by applicable securities laws, the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update

INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 4

 


 

Notes to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(All tabular amounts are in millions of Canadian dollars except numbers of common shares, per share amounts, percentages and various figures in Note 7)

 

1. Structure of Obsidian Energy

 

Obsidian Energy Ltd. (“Obsidian Energy”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is an exploration and production company and is governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta, Canada. The Company's registered office is located at Suite 200, 207 - 9th Avenue S.W. Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2P 1K3. The Company operates in one segment, to explore for, develop and hold interests in oil and natural gas properties and related production infrastructure in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin directly and through investments in securities of subsidiaries holding such interests. Obsidian Energy’s portfolio of assets is managed at an enterprise level, rather than by separate operating segments or business units. The Company assesses our financial performance at the enterprise level and resource allocation decisions are made on a project basis across our portfolio of assets, without regard to the geographic location of projects. Obsidian Energy owns the petroleum and natural gas assets or 100 percent of the equity, directly or indirectly, of the entities that carry on the remainder of the oil and natural gas business of Obsidian Energy.

 

2. Basis of presentation and statement of compliance

 

a) Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements ("interim consolidated financial statements") include the accounts of Obsidian Energy and our wholly owned subsidiaries. Results from acquired properties are included in Obsidian Energy’s reported results subsequent to the closing date and results from properties sold are included until the closing date.

 

All intercompany balances, transactions, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

 

b) Statement of Compliance

These interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in compliance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and accordingly do not contain all of the disclosures included in Obsidian Energy’s annual audited consolidated financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Obsidian Energy’s audited annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Additionally, these interim consolidated financial statements were prepared using the same accounting policies as in the annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025, except as described below.

 

These interim consolidated financial statements were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors on July 29, 2026.

 

c) Material Accounting Policies

The International Accounting Standards Board issued amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures with the intention to clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities. The Company adopted the amendments on their effective date of January 1, 2026. This adoption had no material impact on our interim consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2026, the Company completed an assessment to determine if indicators of impairment or an impairment reversal were present. No indicators were noted for our Willesden Green, Peace River and Viking cash generating units ("CGUs").

 

During the first six months of 2026, we recorded a $0.3 million impairment (2025 - $14.2 million impairment reversal) in our Legacy CGU due to changes in the decommissioning liability in the area. The Legacy CGU has no recoverable amount, as such changes in our decommissioning liability are either expensed or recovered each period.

 

Willesden Green (Belly River) Acquisition - 2026

On June 30, 2026, the Company closed the acquisition of Belly River light oil assets in the Wilson Creek area of Willesden Green (the "Belly River Acquisition"), which added land and production to compliment the Company's existing position. Total consideration was $98.0 million, inclusive of closing adjustments. The Belly River Acquisition was funded through available capacity under the Company's credit facility.

In addition, a contingent value payment (“CVP”) of up to $7.0 million may be payable in quarterly installments of up to $1.75 million from the third quarter of 2026 through the second quarter of 2027, subject to a range of average West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") oil prices in the applicable quarter. At June 30, 2026, based on forecasted WTI prices, no value was ascribed to the CVPs.

The Belly River Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. The preliminary purchase price allocation is based on management's estimates of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and remains subject to change during the measurement period. The preliminary allocation resulted in the recognition of property, plant and equipment of $98.6 million and decommissioning liabilities of $0.6 million. Assuming the Belly River Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2026, the combined entity would have reported the following pro forma production revenue and net income, including estimated DD&A and financing costs, for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Pembina Disposition - 2025

On April 7, 2025, the Company closed the disposition of our operated Pembina assets to InPlay Oil Corp. ("InPlay"). Total consideration for the transaction included $208.3 million of cash (inclusive of final closing adjustments), 9,139,784 common shares of InPlay ("InPlay Shares") and a $14.7 million value associated with acquiring InPlay's 34.6 percent interest in the Willesden Green Cardium Unit #2 property.

 

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company sold all of our InPlay Shares for total proceeds of $91.4 million and recorded a $15.2 million gain on the sale within Other Income on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company has a reserve-based syndicated credit facility which is subject to a semi-annual borrowing base redetermination (typically completed in May and November of each year). The aggregate amount available under the syndicated credit facility is $275.0 million, which was increased from $235.0 million in the second quarter of 2026. The current revolving period and maturity dates are May 31, 2027, and May 31, 2028, respectively.

At June 30, 2026, the Company had $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.125% senior unsecured notes outstanding, maturing on December 3, 2030 (the "Notes"). Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company issued an additional $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of our existing Notes. The additional Notes were issued at a price of 102.75 resulting in an effective yield of 7.186% and gross proceeds of $77.1 million. Following the issuance, the aggregate principal amount outstanding of Notes increased to $250.0 million. The Notes constitute direct senior unsecured obligations of Obsidian Energy and rank equally with all of the Company's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness.

 

At June 30, 2026, letters of credit totaling $2.5 million were outstanding (December 31, 2025 – $2.5 million) that reduce the amount otherwise available to be drawn on our syndicated credit facility.

6. Provisions

 

Decommissioning liability

At June 30, 2026, the decommissioning liability was determined by applying an inflation factor of 2.0 percent (December 31, 2025 - 2.0 percent) and the inflated amount was discounted using a credit-adjusted rate of 8.0 percent (December 31, 2025 – 8.0 percent) over the expected useful life of the underlying assets, currently extending over 50 years into the future. At June 30, 2026, the total decommissioning liability on an undiscounted, uninflated basis was $348.4 million (December 31, 2025 - $324.0 million) which includes $11.4 million for the Belly River Acquisition.

7. Risk management

Financial instruments consist of cash (overdrafts), accounts receivable, fair values of derivative financial instruments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long-term debt. At June 30, 2026, the fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts.

 

The fair values of all outstanding financial commodity contracts and equity forward contracts are reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with the changes during the period recorded in income as unrealized gains or losses for financial commodity contracts and in share-based compensation for equity forward contracts.

 

At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the only asset or liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis was the risk management asset and liability, which was valued based on “Level 2 inputs” being quoted prices in markets that are not active or based on prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

Obsidian Energy records our risk management assets and liabilities on a net basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, there were no differences between the gross and net amounts.

 

Obsidian Energy had the following financial instruments outstanding at June 30, 2026. Fair values are determined using external counterparty information, which is compared to observable market data. The Company limits our credit risk by executing counterparty risk procedures which include transacting only with institutions within our syndicated credit facility or companies with high credit ratings and by obtaining financial security in certain circumstances.

Prepaid Equity Forward Contracts

Obsidian Energy is exposed to equity price risk on our common share price in relation to our share-based compensation plans. Given the value of our share-based compensation plans fluctuates based on the Company’s common share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") at each period end date, the Company mitigates this exposure by entering into equity forward contracts. Unrealized and realized gains/losses on our equity forward contracts for the period are recorded through share-based compensation (see note 10 for the Consolidated Statements of Income impact).

Market Risks

 

Obsidian Energy is exposed to normal market risks inherent in the oil and natural gas business, including, but not limited to, commodity price risk, foreign currency rate risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, inflation risk, geopolitical risk and climate change risk. The Company seeks to mitigate these risks through various business processes and management controls and from time to time by using financial instruments.

 

The ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, together with the continued Russia-Ukraine conflict, including attacks on Russian energy infrastructure, have contributed to uncertainty in global energy markets, resulting in volatile commodity prices. If these conflicts continue for a prolonged period, they could lead to further disruptions in the supply of energy products, increased commodity price volatility and adversely impact the Company's financial condition. The Company will continue to monitor these situations.

 

Other than the aforementioned risk, there have been no material changes to these risks from those discussed in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Share-based compensation expense relates to options to acquire common shares ("Options") granted under the Company's Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan"), restricted share units ("RSUs") granted under the Restricted and Performance Share Unit Plan ("RPSU plan"), deferred share units ("DSUs") granted under the Deferred Share Unit Plan ("DSU plan"), performance share units ("PSUs") granted under the RPSU plan and unrealized gains or losses under the equity forward contracts.

 

The DSU's and PSU's follow the liability method of accounting where the change in share price at the balance sheet date results in a mark-to-market valuation. Settlement of the units or awards, which can be in the form of cash or shares, only occurs when they vest. To mitigate the exposure to fluctuations in our share price, beginning in the third quarter of 2025, the Company began entering into equity forward contracts and the mark-to-market valuation on these contracts is also included in share-based compensation.

 

The Options and RSU's follow the equity method of accounting where the fair value of the option or unit is calculated at the grant date and expensed over the expected life because these securities are typically settled in shares.

 

Share-based compensation consisted of the following:

Relates to the equity forward contracts entered into to mitigate the Company's exposure to our share-based compensation plans.

 

The DSU and PSU obligations are measured at fair value based on the Company's share price at the balance sheet date. At June 30, 2026, the share price used to measure these obligations was $11.61 per share, compared to $13.22 per share at March 31, 2026, $8.42 per share at December 31, 2025, and $7.58 per share at June 30, 2025.

 

OBSIDIAN ENERGY SECOND QUARTER 2026

  NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 14

 


 

Unrealized gains and losses on the prepaid equity forward contracts are measured by comparing the contracts' fair value at each reporting date, including the change in fair value of contracts purchased during the period. The unrealized gain for the first six months of 2026 was based on the June 30, 2026, closing share price of $11.61 per share compared to the weighted average forward price for all of our equity forward contracts of $9.65 per share. For the second quarter of 2026, the unrealized loss recognized in the period reflected quarter-over-quarter changes in our share price, including the impact of equity forward contracts entered into during the quarter at an average fair value of $13.33 per share.

 

The weighted average trading price of the Company's common shares was $12.96 for the first six months of 2026 (2025 - $7.40).

 

Restricted and Performance Share Unit plan

 

RSU grants under the RPSU plan

Deferred Share Unit plan

 

The DSU plan allows the Company to grant DSUs to non-employee directors only.

The DSU plan is classified as a liability on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as the DSUs are settled in cash. The DSU liability fluctuates based on the Company’s share price on the TSX at each period end date. Non-employee directors receive consideration only upon redemption of the DSUs following retirement from the Board of Directors, not before this date, with the consideration based on the volume-weighted-average trading price of the common shares on the TSX.
