Q3 Highlights:
During the third quarter of 2024, Prospera successfully completed the following strategic objectives:

Executed a successful multi-well drilling program in the company’s Brooks light/medium oil property, in turn adding significant production and reserve value.
Acquired an additional 10% working interest in the company’s core Saskatchewan properties (Cuthbert, Luseland & Hearts Hill) from a working interest partner in exchange for full settlement of the partner’s accounts receivable balance. As a result of this working interest acquisition, Prospera’s corporate weighted average working interest increased to an average of 95% in its core Saskatchewan assets.
Closed term debt financing of $11 million in July 2024, providing strategic funding for the company’s development and optimization programs.

Operational highlights for the quarter are as follows:

PEI realized average net sales of 647 boe/d in Q3 2024, an increase of 25% from Q3 2023 net sales of 519 boe/d. The increase was due to additional production realized from the 2023 and 2024 development programs and the increased working interest in PEI’s core Saskatchewan properties.

Due to higher production levels, PEI realized a 21% increase in sales revenue to $4,727,708 in Q3 2024 compared to $3,920,428 in Q3 2023, despite a decrease in sales price decrease to $79.39/boe in Q3 2024, compared to $82.15/boe in Q3 2023.

Consequently, the higher working interest attributed to an increase in operating costs totalling $2,496,800 in Q3 2024 compared to $1,978,034 in Q3 2023, however, operating costs per boe remained flat at $41.93/boe in Q3 2024 compared to $41.45/boe in Q3 2023.

PEI earned an operating netback of $1,740,578 ($29.23/boe) in Q3 2024 compared to $1,517,946 ($31.81/boe) in Q3 2023 and $5,859,379 ($32.35/boe) in YTD 2024 as compared to $2,088,790 ($17.73/boe) in YTD 2023.

As of September 30, 2024, Prospera reduced its accounts payable arrears by $4 million to $16.5 million, compared to $20.5 million on December 31, 2023. This has resulted in the improvement of company financial health, including a decrease in working capital deficit to $8.7 million at September 30, 2024, compared to $17.5 million at December 31, 2023.

The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of any forward-looking information may prove to be incorrect. Events or circumstances may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted, as a result of numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Prospera. As a result, Prospera cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will materialize, and the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward- looking information.
