Stellantis Reports Q1 2025 Consolidated Shipment Estimates of 1.2 Million Units Globally, -9% y-o-y - ForexTV

Stellantis Reports Q1 2025 Consolidated Shipment Estimates of 1.2 Million Units Globally, -9% y-o-y Commercial Recovery Efforts Drive Initial Rebound in EU30 Market Share vs. H2 2024, Stabilization in U.S. Retail Share AMSTERDAM, April 11, 2025 – Stellantis N.V. today published global quarterly consolidated shipment estimates and provided commentary on related business trends. The term “shipments” describes the volume of vehicles delivered to dealers, distributors, or directly from the Company to retail and fleet customers, which drive revenue recognition. Consolidated shipments for the three months ending March 31, 2025, were an estimated 1.2 million units, representing a 9% decline y-o-y, primarily reflecting lower North American production as a consequence of extended holiday downtime in January, and in Enlarged Europe due to the impacts of product transitions and lower light commercial vehicle (LCV) volumes. Commercial progress in the first quarter of 2025, included the launch of all new and refreshed models including the Citroën C3 Aircross, Opel Frontera, Fiat Grande Panda, Ram 2500 and 3500 heavy-duty trucks, helping to drive positive momentum in order intake, while maintaining normalized dealer inventory levels. In North America, Q1 shipments declined approximately 82 thousand units compared to the same period in 2024, representing a 20% y-o-y decline, mainly reflecting lower January production, a consequence of extended holiday downtime, as well as the initial ramp up of the updated 2025 Ram heavy duty trucks. Looking at U.S. sales performance, Jeep® Compass, Grand Cherokee and Ram 1500/2500 each saw volumes rise >10% y-o-y in Q1 2025. Also encouraging, March new retail orders were at the highest level since July 2023.Enlarged Europe Q1 shipments declined approximately 47 thousand units, representing a 8% y-o-y decline, two-thirds due to transition gaps in certain A and B-segment vehicles replacing prior-generation products discontinued at the end of H1 2024, and one-third from a decline in LCV volumes. Switching over to European sales performance, Q1 2025 EU30 market share was 17.3%, an increase of 1.9 percentage points compared to Q4 2024, reflecting in part the sales contributions of recent new product launches.Across Stellantis’ “Third Engine”, shipments grew collectively 13 thousand units, representing a 4% increase driven mainly by a 19% increase in South America, more than offsetting shipment declines in Middle East & Africa, China and India & Asia Pacific. Stellantis maintained its leadership in South America while benefiting from higher industry volumes, especially in Brazil and Argentina. In Middle East & Africa the 15% decline in shipments was mostly driven by the impact of import restrictions in Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt. (1) Consolidated shipments only include shipments by Company’s consolidated subsidiaries, which represent new vehicles invoiced to third party (dealers/importers or final customers). Consolidated shipment volumes for Q1 2025 presented here are unaudited and may be adjusted. Final figures will be provided in our official revenue/shipments report. Analysts should interpret these numbers with the understanding that they are preliminary and subject to change.

Magna Announces First Quarter 2025 Results - ForexTV

Comparing the first quarter of 2025 to the first quarter of 2024: - Sales decreased 8% to $10.1 billion, as global light vehicle production decreased 3%, which included 8% and 5% declines in Europe and North America, respectively - Diluted earnings per share of $0.52 and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.78, compared to $0.03 and $1.08, respectivelyFirst quarter performance was broadly ahead of our expectations driven by strong incremental margins on better than anticipated vehicle productionReturned $187 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchasesUpdated 2025 Outlook excludes potential impacts of tariffs including on light vehicle production, full year 2025 range of net income attributable to shareholders unchanged AURORA, Ontario, May 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Magna International Inc. (TSX: MG; NYSE: MGA) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. Please click HERE for full first quarter MD&A and Financial Statements. "Our operating results for the first quarter of 2025 exceeded our expectations, with strong incremental margins on better than anticipated vehicle production and, for the balance of the year, we remain confident in our ability to execute on variables within our control in a complex and uncertain industry environment. We are actively advancing several initiatives including operational excellence, restructuring, commercial recoveries, and reduced capital and engineering spending to mitigate the impact of tariffs. We remain focused on generating long-term free cash flow to invest for profitable growth and drive compelling capital return to shareholders."- Swamy Kotagiri, Magna’s Chief Executive Officer THREE MONTHS ENDED March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024Reported Sales $10,069 $10,970 Income from operations before income taxes $225 $34 Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. $146 $9 Diluted earnings per share $0.52 $0.03 Non-GAAP Financial Measures(1) Adjusted EBIT $354 $469 Adjusted diluted earnings per share $0.78 $1.08 All results are reported in millions of U.S. dollars, except per share figures, which are in U.S. dollars (1) Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are Non-GAAP financial measures that have no standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP, and as a result may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures by other companies. Further information and a reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 We posted sales of $10.1 billion for the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of 8% from the first quarter of 2024. The lower sales largely reflects a 3% decrease in global light vehicle production, including 8% and 5% lower production in Europe and North America, respectively, partially offset by 2% higher production in China. In addition, sales were negatively impacted by lower complete vehicle assembly volumes, including as a result of the end of production of the Jaguar I-Pace and E-Pace, the end of production of certain programs and the net weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. These were partially offset by the launch of new programs. Adjusted EBIT decreased to $354 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $469 million in the first quarter of 2024. This mainly reflects: reduced earnings on lower sales; andhigher net warranty costs associated with our seating business. These were partially offset by: higher net favourable commercial items;continued productivity and efficiency improvements; andlower net engineering costs, including spending related to our electrification and active safety businesses. During the first quarter of 2025, Other expense, net(2) and Amortization of acquired intangibles totaled $79 million (2023 - $384 million) and on an after-tax basis $73 million (2023 - $302 million). Income from operations before income taxes increased to $225 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $34 million in the first quarter of 2024. Excluding Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, income from operations before income taxes decreased $114 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, largely reflecting the decrease in Adjusted EBIT. Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $146 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $9 million in the first quarter of 2024. Excluding Other expense, net, after tax and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. decreased $92 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024. Diluted earnings per share were $0.52 in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $0.03 in the comparable period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.78, compared to $1.08 for the first quarter of 2024. In the first quarter of 2025, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $547 million and used $470 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the first quarter of 2025 included $268 million in fixed asset additions, $148 million in investments, other assets and intangible assets, $4 million for business combinations and $1 million in private equity investments. RETURN OF CAPITAL TO SHAREHOLDERS During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we returned $187 million to shareholders, including $136 million in dividends and $51 million in share repurchases. Our Board of Directors declared a first quarter dividend of $0.485 per Common Share, payable on May 30, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 16, 2025. (2) Other expense, net is comprised of Fisker Inc. [“Fisker”] related impacts (restructuring and impairment of assembly and production assets, the impairment of Fisker warrants), revaluations of certain public company warrants and equity investments, and restructuring activities, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 & 2025. A reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release.

The following Outlook is an update to our previous Outlook in February 2025. Updated 2025 Outlook Assumptions Current Previous Light Vehicle Production (millions of units) North AmericaEuropeChina 15.016.630.2 15.116.629.7 Average Foreign exchange rates: 1 Canadian dollar equals1 euro equals U.S. $0.714U.S. $1.111 U.S. $0.690U.S. $1.030 Light vehicle production assumptions reflect near-term original equipment manufacturer ["OEM"] production release information, including announced production downtime at certain OEM assembly facilities, but do not include the potential impact of tariffs and other trade measures on vehicle costs, vehicle affordability or consumer demand, nor the impact of these on vehicle production.

Refer to the reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures in the back of this press release for further information(4) Excludes unmitigated incremental tariff costs (5) The Income Tax Rate has been calculated using Adjusted EBIT and is based on current tax legislation (6) Adjusted Net Income attributable to Magna represents Net Income excluding Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, net of tax Our Outlook is intended to provide information about management's current expectations and plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Although considered reasonable by Magna as of the date of this document, the 2025 Outlook above and the underlying assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our actual results could differ materially from our expectations as set forth herein. The risks identified in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section below represent the primary factors which we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations. KEY DRIVERS OF OUR BUSINESS Our business and operating results are dependent on light vehicle production by our customers in three key regions – North America, Europe, and China. While we supply systems and components to many OEMs globally, we do not supply systems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content consistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix relative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific vehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results. Ordinarily, OEM production volumes are aligned with vehicle sales levels and thus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels, production volumes are typically impacted by a range of factors, including: OEM, supplier or sub-supplier disruptions; free trade arrangements and tariffs; relative currency values; commodities prices; supply chains and infrastructure; labour disruptions and the availability and relative cost of skilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors. Overall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer confidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as other macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which typically impact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle affordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy prices; relative currency values; uncertainty as to the pace of EV adoption; and other factors. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION In addition to the financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this press release contains references to the Non-GAAP financial measures reconciled below. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of the Company’s financial position and results of operations, and to improve comparability between fiscal periods. In particular, management believes that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful measures in assessing the Company’s financial performance by excluding certain items that are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s related financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBIT For the three months ended March 31, 2025 2024 Net Income$153 $26 Add: Amortization of acquired intangible assets 26 28 Interest expense, net 50 51 Other expense, net 53 356 Income taxes 72 8 Adjusted EBIT$354 $469 Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales ("Adjusted EBIT Margin") For the three months ended March 31, 2025 2024 Sales$10,069 $10,970 Adjusted EBIT$354 $469 Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales 3.5% 4.3% Adjusted diluted earnings per share For the three months ended March 31, 2025 2024 Net income attributable to Magna International Inc.$146 $9 Add (deduct): Amortization of acquired intangible assets 26 28 Other expense, net 53 356 Tax effect on Amortization of acquired intangible assets and Other expense, net (6) (82)Adjusted net income attributable to Magna International Inc.$219 $311 Diluted weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period (millions): 282.0 287.1 Adjusted diluted earnings per share$0.78 $1.08 Certain of the forward-looking financial measures above are provided on a Non-GAAP basis. We do not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. To do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting items that are not reflective of on-going operations in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

Further information and a reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release. THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025 We posted sales of $10.6 billion for the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of 3% from the second quarter of 2024. The lower sales largely reflects: 6% and 2% lower light vehicle production in North America and Europe, respectively;lower complete vehicle assembly volumes, substantially due to the end of production of the Jaguar I-Pace and E-Pace; andthe end of production of certain programs. These factors were partially offset by: the launch of new programs; andthe net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. Adjusted EBIT increased to $583 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to $577 million in the second quarter of 2024. This mainly reflects: continued productivity and efficiency improvements, including the benefit of our operational excellence initiatives and restructuring activities in prior periods; andhigher equity income. These were partially offset by: higher tariff costs;commercial items in the second quarters of 2025 and 2024, which have a net unfavourable impact on a year-over-year basis; andreduced earnings on lower sales. During the second quarter of 2025, Other expense, net(2) and Amortization of acquired intangibles totaled $35 million (2024 - $96 million) and on an after-tax basis $28 million (2024 - $76 million). Income from operations before income taxes increased to $496 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $427 million in the second quarter of 2024. Excluding Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, income from operations before income taxes increased $8 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024, largely reflecting the increase in Adjusted EBIT. Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $379 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $313 million in the second quarter of 2024. Excluding Other expense, net, after tax and Amortization of acquired intangibles from both periods, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. increased $18 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024. Diluted earnings per share were $1.35 in the second quarter of 2025, compared to $1.09 in the comparable period. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.44, compared to $1.35 for the second quarter of 2024. In the second quarter of 2025, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $762 million and used $135 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities for the second quarter of 2025 included $246 million in fixed asset additions, $94 million in investments, other assets and intangible assets, and $3 million in private equity investments. (2)Other expense, net is comprised of restructuring activities, revaluations of certain public and private equity investments, and gain on sales of public equity investments, during the three months ended June 30, 2024 & 2025. A reconciliation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is included in the back of this press release. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025 We posted sales of $20.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $21.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The lower sales largely reflects: 7% and 4% lower light vehicle production in North America and Europe, respectively; lower complete vehicle assembly volumes, substantially due to the end of production of the Jaguar I-Pace and E-Pace; andthe end of production of certain programs. These were partially offset by the launch of new programs. Adjusted EBIT decreased to $937 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $1,046 million for six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily due to: reduced earnings on lower sales; andhigher tariff costs. These were partially offset by: continued productivity and efficiency improvements, including the benefit of our operational excellence initiatives and restructuring activities in prior periods; andcommercial items in the first six months of 2025 and 2024, which had a net favourable impact on a year-over-year basis. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, income from operations before income taxes was $721 million, net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $525 million and diluted earnings per share were $1.86, increases of $260 million, $203 million, and $0.74, respectively, each compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, diluted earnings per share were $1.86, compared to $1.12 in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $2.22, compared to $2.44 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated cash from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.31 billion and used $605 million in operating assets and liabilities. Investment activities included $514 million in fixed asset additions, a $242 million increase in investments, other assets and intangible assets, and $4 million in public and private equity investments. RETURN OF CAPITAL TO SHAREHOLDERS During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we paid $137 million in dividends to shareholders. Our Board of Directors declared a second quarter dividend of $0.485 per Common Share, payable on August 29, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 15, 2025.

Refer to the reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures in the back of this press release for further information(4)The Income Tax Rate has been calculated using Adjusted EBIT and is based on current tax legislation(5)Adjusted Net Income attributable to Magna represents Net Income excluding Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, net of tax Our Outlook is intended to provide information about management's current expectations and plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Although considered reasonable by Magna as of the date of this document, the 2025 Outlook above and the underlying assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. Accordingly, our actual results could differ materially from our expectations as set forth herein. The risks identified in the “Forward-Looking Statements” section below represent the primary factors which we believe could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations. KEY DRIVERS OF OUR BUSINESS Our business and operating results are dependent on light vehicle production by our customers in three key regions – North America, Europe, and China. While we supply systems and components to many OEMs globally, we do not supply systems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content consistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix relative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific vehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results. Ordinarily, OEM production volumes are aligned with vehicle sales levels and thus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels, production volumes are typically impacted by a range of factors, including: OEM, supplier or sub-supplier disruptions; free trade arrangements and tariffs; relative currency values; commodities prices; supply chains and infrastructure; labour disruptions and the availability and relative cost of skilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors. Overall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer confidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as other macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which typically impact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle affordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy prices; relative currency values; uncertainty as to the pace of EV adoption; and other factors. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION In addition to the financial results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this press release contains references to the Non-GAAP financial measures reconciled below. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are useful to both management and investors in their analysis of the Company’s financial position and results of operations, and to improve comparability between fiscal periods. In particular, management believes that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful measures in assessing the Company’s financial performance by excluding certain items that are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company’s related financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

We do not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. To do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting items that are not reflective of ongoing operations in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

Our strong first-half performance reflects the resilience of our business model, the quality of our assets, and the dedication of our talented teams. With the successful integration of Maverick progressing on schedule, we are already realizing meaningful synergies and operational efficiencies that enhance our ability to optimize cash flow in our expanded portfolio and drive long-term value from our investments. The strategic partnership with The Carlyle Group marks a transformational milestone for Diversified. This $2 billion commitment underscores confidence in our platform and provides significant capital flexibility to capitalize on the ongoing consolidation of mature producing assets. It also strengthens our ability to scale responsibly, in a non-dilutive manner, while preserving our disciplined approach to capital allocation. We remain focused on unlocking value across our portfolio through asset optimization, which resulted in approximately $70 million of additional cash flow, high return projects with our targeted capital investments, and the continuation of portfolio optimization through Smarter Asset Management (SAM) programs. Our NextLVL team’s industry-leading pace of asset retirements and regulatory advancements in West Virginia highlights our commitment to collaborating across our organization and with key stakeholders to solidify our commitment to sustainable operations. As we look ahead, the mega trends of electrification, AI power demand, and US LNG Export growth only strengthen the fundamental outlook for our business. The acceleration of natural gas generation for data center demand in Appalachia creates a line of sight to meaningful in-basin demand, pointing to tighter basis spreads near our footprint in the coming years. While our expansive central region operations are well-positioned to support US Energy dominance in the Gulf Coast, including as a strategic supplier to LNG export terminals. Given Diversified's continued operational excellence, fundamental market tailwinds, and strategic actions to optimize our portfolio of assets, we remain confident in our ability to continue delivering consistent and resilient free cash flow, maintaining a strong balance sheet, and returning meaningful capital to shareholders. Diversified is well-positioned to thrive as a proven portfolio manager of energy assets in today’s evolving energy landscape, and we are proud to be the Right Company at the Right Time, delivering essential energy while creating long-term value for all stakeholders.” Operations and Finance Update Production The Company recorded exit rate production in June 2025 of 1,135 MMcfepd (189 Mboepd)(a) and delivered 2Q25 average net daily production of 1,149 MMcfepd (192 Mboepd). The Company's production volume mix was approximately 73% natural gas, 13% natural gas liquids ("NGL's"), and 14% oil, with approximately 64% of production volumes from the Central region and 36% from Appalachia for the second quarter. Net daily production for the quarter continued to benefit from Diversified’s peer-leading, shallow decline profile. Margin and Total Cash Expenses per Unit Diversified delivered 2Q25 per unit revenues of $4.88/Mcfe(d) ($29.28/Boe) and Adjusted EBITDA Margin(b) of 63% (65% unhedged). Notably, these per unit metrics reflect an increase in both revenues and expenses from the incorporation of greater liquids-related production of Maverick. The Company’s per unit expenses are anticipated to improve as the Company implements its playbook to achieve long-term, sustainable synergies and cost savings. For example, General and Administrative expenses compared to prior period levels, despite the higher per unit costs of Maverick, supporting our progress on cost savings and synergy capture. 1Q252Q25 1H251H24 $/Mcfe$/Boe$/Mcfe$/Boe $/Mcfe$/Boe$/Mcfe$/BoeAverage Realized Price$3.57 $21.42$4.05 $24.30 $3.84 $23.04$3.05 $18.30Other Revenue$0.19 $1.14$0.19 $1.14 $0.19 $1.14$0.18 $1.08Total Revenue + Divestitures(d)$3.78 $22.68$4.88 $29.28 $4.41 $26.46$3.30 $19.80 Lease Operating Expense$0.91 $5.49$1.21 $7.26 $1.08 $6.48$0.66 $3.96Production taxes$0.21 $1.26$0.23 $1.38 $0.22 $1.32$0.15 $0.90Midstream operating expense$0.23 $1.38$0.18 $1.08 $0.20 $1.20$0.26 $1.56Transportation expense$0.35 $2.10$0.36 $2.16 $0.35 $2.10$0.31 $1.86Total Operating Expense$1.70 $10.23$1.98 $11.88 $1.85 $11.10$1.38 $8.28Employees, Administrative Costs and Professional Fees(g)$0.30 $1.80$0.23 $1.38 $0.26 $1.56$0.30 $1.80Adjusted Operating Cost per Unit(e)$2.00 $12.03$2.21 $13.26 $2.11 $12.66$1.68 $10.08Adjusted EBITDA Margin(b) 47% 63% 56% 49% Share Repurchase Program At the 2025 Annual General Meeting, the Company's share repurchase authority was approved for a maximum of 8,099,015 shares representing 10% of the Company's issued share capital (the "2025 Authorization"). The Company announced details regarding the parameters of a Share Buyback Program (the "Program") on 20 March 2025, pursuant to which the maximum number of shares repurchased shall not exceed 4,756,842 Shares under the Program. Following the 2025 Authorization, the Company announces that the maximum number of shares repurchased under the Program shall be increased to, and shall not exceed, 8,099,015 shares. Year to date, the company has repurchased 3,273,466 shares, representing approximately 4% of the shares outstanding. Combined Company 2025 Outlook The Company is reiterating its previously announced Full Year 2025 guidance. Following the recently completed acquisition of Maverick, Diversified expects to realize significant operational synergies associated with a larger, consolidated position in Oklahoma and the ability to improve the overall cost structure of the Maverick assets while continuing to prioritize returns and Free Cash Flow generation.

Forward-Looking Statements This announcement contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) concerning the financial condition, results of operations, business and outlook of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Group”). All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, which contain the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “intend”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “will”, “seek”, “continue”, “aim”, “target”, “projected”, “plan”, “goal”, “achieve”, “guidance” and words of similar meaning, reflect the Company’s beliefs and expectations and are based on numerous assumptions regarding the Company’s present and future business strategies and the environment the Company and the Group will operate in and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. No representation is made that any of these statements or forecasts will come to pass or that any forecast results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements involve inherent known and unknown risks, uncertainties and contingencies because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future and may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company or the Group to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the Company’s or the Group’s ability to control or estimate precisely, such as future market conditions, currency fluctuations, the behavior of other market participants, the actions of regulators and other factors such as the Company’s or the Group’s ability to continue to obtain financing to meet its liquidity needs, the Company’s ability to successfully integrate acquisitions, including the acquired Maverick assets, changes in the political, social and regulatory framework, including inflation and changes resulting from actual or anticipated tariffs and trade policies, in which the Company or the Group operate or in economic or technological trends or conditions. The list above is not exhaustive and there are other factors that may cause the Company’s or the Group’s actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this announcement, Including the risk factors described in the “Risk Factors” section in the Company’s Annual Report and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements speak only as of their date and neither the Company nor the Group nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates or advisers expressly disclaim any obligation to supplement, amend, update or revise any of the forward-looking statements made herein, except where it would be required to do so under applicable law. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements in this announcement, may not occur. As a result, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Past performance of the Company cannot be relied on as a guide to future performance. No statement in this announcement is intended as a profit forecast or a profit estimate and no statement in this announcement should be interpreted to mean that the financial performance of the Company for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published for the Company. Use of Non-IFRS Measures Certain key operating metrics that are not defined under IFRS (alternative performance measures) are included in this announcement. These non-IFRS measures are used by us to monitor the underlying business performance of the Company from period to period and to facilitate comparison with our peers. Since not all companies calculate these or other non-IFRS metrics in the same way, the manner in which we have chosen to calculate the non-IFRS metrics presented herein may not be compatible with similarly defined terms used by other companies. The non-IFRS metrics should not be considered in isolation of, or viewed as substitutes for, the financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Certain of the key operating metrics are based on information derived from our regularly maintained records and accounting and operating systems. Adjusted EBITDA & Pro Forma TTM Adjusted EBITDA As used herein, EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depletion, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA includes adjusting for items that are not comparable period-over-period, namely, finance costs, accretion of asset retirement obligation, other (income) expense, (gain) loss on fair value adjustments of unsettled financial instruments, (gain) loss on natural gas and oil property and equipment, (gain) loss on sale of equity interest, unrealized (gain) loss on investment, costs associated with acquisitions, other adjusting costs, loss on early retirement of debt, non-cash equity compensation, (gain) loss on interest rate swaps, and items of a similar nature. Pro forma TTM adjusted EBITDA extends adjusted EBITDA by adjusting for acquisitions or other significant changes that impacted EBITDA over the last twelve months. Adjusted EBITDA and pro form TTM adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating profit or loss, net income or loss, or cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities. However, we believe such measure is useful to an investor in evaluating our financial performance because it (1) is widely used by investors in the natural gas and oil industry as an indicator of underlying business performance; (2) helps investors to more meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period by removing the often-volatile revenue impact of changes in the fair value of derivative instruments prior to settlement; (3) is used in the calculation of a key metric in one of our Credit Facility financial covenants; and (4) is used by us as a performance measure in determining executive compensation. When evaluating this measure, we believe investors also commonly find it useful to evaluate this metric as a percentage of our total revenue, inclusive of settled hedges, producing what we refer to as our adjusted EBITDA margin.

(2)Excludes $2 million, $68 million, $70 million, $7 million and $34 million in cash proceeds received for leasehold sales during the three months ended March 31 and June 30, 2025, and the six months ended June 30, 2025, June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2024, respectively, less $6 million, $6 million and $14 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and the six months ended June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. (3)Other adjusting costs for the three months ended March 31 and June 30, 2025, and the six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily associated with one-time personnel-related expenses and legal fees from certain litigation. Other adjusting costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were primarily associated with expenses associated with unused firm transportation agreements and legal and professional fees. Other adjusting costs for the six months ended December 31, 2024 were primarily associated with legal fees from certain litigation. (4)Includes adjustments for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2025 for the Oaktree, Crescent Pass, and East Texas II acquisitions to pro forma results for a full twelve months of operations. Similar adjustments were made for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2025 for the Maverick, Summit, Crescent Pass, and East Texas II acquisitions as well as for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2024 for the Oaktree acquisition and for the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2024 for the Oaktree, Crescent Pass, and East Texas II acquisitions. Net Debt, Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA & Net Debt-to-Pro Forma TTM Adjusted EBITDA As used herein, net debt represents total debt as recognized on the balance sheet less cash and restricted cash. Total debt includes our borrowings under the Credit Facility, borrowings under or issuances of, as applicable, our subsidiaries’ securitization facilities, and other borrowings. We believe net debt is a useful indicator of our leverage and capital structure. As used herein, net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA, net debt-to-pro forma TTM adjusted EBITDA, or “leverage” or “leverage ratio,” is measured as net debt divided by adjusted EBITDA or pro forma TTM adjusted EBITDA. We believe that this metric is a key measure of our financial liquidity and flexibility and is used in the calculation of a key metric in one of our Credit Facility financial covenants. The following table presents a reconciliation of the IFRS Financial measure of Total Non-Current Borrowings to the Non-IFRS measure of Net Debt and a calculation of Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt-to-Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods listed: As of(In thousands)March 31, 2025June 30, 2025June 30, 2024December 31, 2024Total debt$2,701,190$2,676,910$1,654,560$1,693,242LESS: Cash and cash equivalents 32,641 23,743 3,483 5,990LESS: Restricted cash(1)(2) 106,011 103,158 54,976 46,269Net debt$2,562,538$2,550,009$1,596,101$1,640,983Pro forma TTM adjusted EBITDA(3)$952,216$964,028$584,261$548,570Net debt-to-pro forma TTM adjusted EBITDA(4)2.7x2.6x2.7x3.0x (1)Includes adjustments for deferred financing costs and original issue discounts, consistent with presentation on the Statement of Financial Position. (2)The increase of restricted cash as of March 31 and June 30, 2025, is due to the addition of $19 million and $31 million in restricted cash for the ABS X Notes and ABS Maverick Notes, respectively, offset by $4 million for the retirement of the ABS I & II notes. (3)Includes adjustments for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2025 for the Oaktree, Crescent Pass, and East Texas II acquisitions to pro forma results for a full twelve months of operations. Similar adjustments were made for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2025 for the Maverick, Summit, Crescent Pass, and East Texas II acquisitions as well as for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2024 for the Oaktree acquisition and for the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2024 for the Oaktree, Crescent Pass, and East Texas II acquisitions. (4)Does not include adjustments for working capital which are often customary in the market. Free Cash Flow As used herein, free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities, less expenditures on natural gas and oil properties and equipment, and cash paid for interest. We believe that free cash flow is a useful indicator of our ability to generate cash that is available for activities beyond capital expenditures. The Directors believe that free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available to service debt obligations, make strategic acquisitions and investments, and pay dividends. The following table presents a reconciliation of the IFRS Financial measure of Net Cash from Operating Activities to the Non-IFRS measure of Free Cash Flow for each of the periods listed: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended(In thousands)March 31, 2025June 30, 2025 June 30, 2025June 30, 2024December 31, 2024Net cash provided by operating activities$131,539 $132,596 $264,135 $160,810 $184,853 LESS: Expenditures on natural gas and oil properties and equipment (28,031) (61,238) (89,269) (20,848) (31,252)LESS: Cash paid for interest (41,574) (50,680) (92,254) (47,632) (75,509)Free cash flow$61,934 $20,678 $82,612 $92,330 $78,092 ADD: Proceeds from divestitures 1,970 67,655 69,625 9,933 59,048 Adjusted free cash flow$63,904 $88,333 $152,237 $102,263 $229,470 Free cash flow yield(1) 31% (1) Annualized second quarter 2025 free cash flow of $88 million and Market Cap of $1.1 billion as of August 8, 2025. Total Revenue, Inclusive of Settled Hedges and Adjusted EBITDA Margin As used herein, total revenue, inclusive of settled hedges, accounts for the impact of derivatives settled in cash. We believe that total revenue, inclusive of settled hedges, is useful because it enables investors to discern our realized revenue after adjusting for the settlement of derivative contracts. As used herein, adjusted EBITDA margin is measured as adjusted EBITDA, as a percentage of total revenue, inclusive of settled hedges. Adjusted EBITDA margin encompasses the direct operating costs and the portion of general and administrative costs required to produce each Mcfe. This metric includes operating expense, employee costs, administrative costs and professional services, and recurring allowance for credit losses, which cover both fixed and variable cost components. We believe that adjusted EBITDA margin is a useful measure of our profitability and efficiency, as well as our earnings quality, because it evaluates the Group on a more comparable basis period-over-period, especially given our frequent involvement in transactions that are not comparable between periods. The following table presents a reconciliation of the IFRS Financial measure of Total Revenue to the Non-IFRS measure of Total Revenue, Inclusive of Settled Hedges and a calculation of Adjusted EBITDA Margin for each of the periods listed: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended(In thousands)March 31, 2025June 30, 2025 June 30, 2025June 30, 2024December 31, 2024Total revenue$346,903 $431,162 $778,065 $368,674 $426,167 Net gain (loss) on commodity derivative instruments(1) (52,271) 14,617 (37,654) 77,749 73,540 Total revenue, inclusive of settled hedges 294,632 445,779 740,411 446,423 499,707 Adjusted EBITDA$138,164 $279,813 $417,977 $217,787 $254,522 Adjusted EBITDA margin 47 % 63 % 56 % 49 % 51 % (1) Net gain (loss) on commodity derivative settlements represents cash paid or received on commodity derivative contracts. This excludes settlements on foreign currency and interest rate derivatives, as well as the gain (loss) on fair value adjustments for unsettled financial instruments for each of the periods presented.
