Presentation of Information

Throughout this Annual Information Form, the terms, we, us, our, the Company and Greenfire mean Greenfire Resources Ltd. (“GRL”) and its subsidiaries. In particular, Greenfire includes references to Greenfire Resources Operating Corporation (“GROC”).

Unless otherwise noted, the information contained in this Annual Information Form is given at or for the year ended December 31, 2025. Amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Financial information is presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Unless otherwise defined herein, defined terms in this Annual Information Form have the meanings set forth in “Glossary” at the back of this Annual Information Form.

Disclosure of Reserves and Production Information

All oil and gas information presented in this Annual Information Form has been prepared and is presented in accordance with the Canadian disclosure standards set forth in NI 51-101.

The oil and gas reserves and operational information of Greenfire contained in this Annual Information Form contains the information required to be included in the Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information pursuant to NI 51-101. Readers should also refer to the Report on Reserves Data by McDaniel attached as Appendix A and the Report of Management and Directors on Oil and Gas Disclosure and Other Information attached hereto as Appendix B. The effective date for the Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information contained in this Annual Information Form is December 31, 2025 and the preparation date for such information is March 12, 2026.

This Annual Information Form contains metrics commonly used in the oil and gas industry, including “reserves life index”. These terms do not have a standardized meaning and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, and therefore should not be used to make such comparisons. Readers are cautioned as to the reliability of oil and gas metrics used in this Annual Information Form. Management of Greenfire uses these oil and gas metrics for its own performance measurements and to provide investors with measures to compare the Greenfire’s projected performance over time; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the Greenfire’s future performance, which may not compare to the Greenfire’s performance in previous periods, and therefore should not be unduly relied upon. “Reserves life index” is calculated by dividing the applicable reserves and/or contingent resources by expected production.

Notice to U.S. Readers

Data on oil and natural gas reserves contained in this Annual Information Form has generally been prepared in accordance with Canadian disclosure standards and specifically in accordance with NI 51-101, which are not comparable in all respects to United States disclosure standards under Subpart 1200 of Regulation S-K or other foreign disclosure standards. For example, although the SEC generally permits oil and gas issuers, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose both proved reserves and probable reserves (each as defined in the SEC rules), the SEC definitions and estimation of proved reserves and probable reserves may differ from the definitions and estimation of “proved reserves” and “probable reserves” under Canadian securities laws. In addition, under Canadian disclosure requirements and industry practice, reserves and production are reported using gross (or, as noted above with respect to production information, “company interest”) volumes, which are volumes prior to deduction of applicable royalties and similar payments. The practice in the United States is to report reserves and production using net volumes, after deduction of applicable royalties and similar payments, plus royalty interests. Moreover, in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, the Company has determined and disclosed estimated future net revenue from its reserves using forecast prices and escalating costs, whereas the SEC generally requires that reserves estimates be prepared using an unweighted average of the closing prices for the applicable commodity on the first day of each of the twelve months preceding the Company’s fiscal year-end, with the option of also disclosing reserves estimates based upon future or other prices and constant costs. As a consequence of the foregoing, the Company’s reserves estimates and production volumes may not be comparable to those made by companies utilizing United States reporting and disclosure standards.

Interests in Reserves, Production, Wells and Properties

Certain of the following definitions and guidelines are contained in the glossary to NI 51-101 contained in CSA Notice 51-324, which incorporates certain definitions from the COGE Handbook. Readers should consult CSA Notice 51-324 and the COGE Handbook for additional explanation and guidance.

In addition to the terms having defined meanings set forth in CSA Notice 51-324, the terms set forth below have the following meanings when used in this Annual Information Form:

gross” means:

(a) in relation to Greenfire’s interest in production or reserves, its working interest (operating or<br>non-operating) share before deduction of royalties and without including any royalty interests of Greenfire;
(b) in relation to wells, the total number of wells in which Greenfire has an interest; and
--- ---
(c) in relation to properties, the total area in which Greenfire has an interest.
--- ---

net” means:

(a) in relation to Greenfire’s interest in production or reserves, its working interest (operating or<br>non-operating) share after deduction of royalty obligations, plus Greenfire’s royalty interests in production or reserves;
(b) in relation to Greenfire’s interest in wells, the number of wells obtained by aggregating Greenfire’s<br>working interest in each of its gross wells; and
--- ---
(c) in relation to Greenfire’s interest in a property, the total area in which Greenfire has an interest<br>multiplied by the working interest owned by Greenfire.
--- ---

working interest” means the percentage of undivided interest held by Greenfire in the oil and/or natural gas or mineral lease granted by the mineral owner (Crown or freehold), which interest gives Greenfire the right to “work” the property (lease) to explore for, develop, produce and market the leased substances.

Reserves Categories and Levels of Certainty for Reported Reserves

In this Annual Information Form, the following terms have the meaning assigned thereto in CSA Notice 51-324 and the COGE Handbook:

reserves” are estimated remaining quantities of crude oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations, as of a given date, based on: analysis of drilling, geological, geophysical and engineering data; the use of established technology; and specified economic conditions, which are generally accepted as being reasonable, and shall be disclosed. Reserves may be divided into proved and probable categories according to the degree of certainty associated with the estimates.

proved reserves” are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.

probable reserves” are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 3
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The qualitative certainty levels referred to in the definitions above are applicable to individual reserves entities (which refers to the lowest level at which reserves calculations are performed) and to reported reserves (which refers to the highest-level sum of individual entity estimates for which reserves estimates are presented). Reported reserves should target the following levels of certainty under a specific set of economic conditions:

at least a 90% probability that the quantities<br>actually recovered will equal or exceed the estimated proved reserves; and
at least a 50% probability that the quantities<br>actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.
--- ---

Development and Production Status

Each of the reserves categories reported by Greenfire (proved and probable) may be divided into developed and undeveloped categories:

developed reserves” are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from existing wells and installed facilities or, if facilities have not been installed, that would involve a low expenditure (for example, when compared to the cost of drilling a well) to put the reserves on production. The developed category may be subdivided into producing and non-producing.

developed producing reserves” are those reserves that are expected to be recovered<br>from completion intervals open at the time of the estimate. These reserves may be currently producing or, if shut-in, they must have previously<br>been on production, and the date of resumption of production must be known with reasonable certainty.
developed non-producing reserves” are those reserves that either have not been on<br>production, or have previously been on production, but are shut-in, and the date of resumption of production is unknown.
--- ---

undeveloped reserves” are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (for example, when compared to the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves classification (proved or probable) to which they are assigned.

Description of Price and Cost Assumptions

forecast prices and costs” means future prices and costs that are:

(a) generally accepted as being a reasonable outlook of the future; and
(b) if, and only to the extent that, there are fixed or presently determinable future prices or costs to which<br>Greenfire is legally bound by a contractual or other obligation to supply a physical product, including those for an extension period<br>of a contract that is likely to be extended, those prices or costs rather than the prices or costs referred to in paragraph (a).

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Annual Information Form contains forward-looking information and forward-looking statements (collectively, “forward-looking information”) within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The forward-looking information in this Annual Information Form is based on Greenfire’s current internal expectations, estimates, projections, assumptions and beliefs. Such forward-looking information is not a guarantee of future performance and involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information. The Company believes the material factors, expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking information are reasonable as of the time of such information, but no assurance can be given that these factors, expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct, and such forward-looking information included in this Annual Information Form should not be unduly relied upon.

The use of any of the words “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “objective”, “ongoing”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “project”, “believe”, “depends”, “could”, “guidance”, “plan”, “strategy” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information.

Greenfire’s future operating and financial<br>results;
--- ---
bitumen production levels;

In addition, statements relating to “reserves” are deemed to be forward-looking information as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and can be profitably produced in the future. Forward-looking information in this Annual Information Form relating to oil and gas exploration, development and production, and management’s general expectations relating to the oil and gas industry are based on estimates prepared by management using data from publicly available industry sources as well as from market research and industry analysis and on assumptions based on data and knowledge of the industry which management believes to be reasonable. Although generally indicative of relative market positions, market shares and performance characteristics, this data is inherently imprecise. Management is not aware of any misstatements regarding any industry data presented in this Annual Information Form. Oil and gas exploration, development and production involves risks and uncertainties and industry data is subject to change based on various factors. See “Risk Factors” in this Annual Information Form.

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE BUSINESS

Summarized below are significant developments that have occurred in our business, and certain acquisitions, dispositions, events or conditions which have had an influence on those developments, during the last three financial years and year to date in 2025.

2023

Completion of the Business Combination

On December 14, 2022, GRL, GRI and MBSC, among others, entered into a business combination agreement pursuant to which GRL would become the parent of both GRI and MBSC, with the combined company continuing to operate Greenfire’s production and facilities.

Concurrently with the execution of the business combination agreement, GRL and MBSC entered into subscription agreements with certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”) for the purchase of equity securities of MBSC for an aggregate closing purchase price of US$42 million (the “PIPE Financing”).

On September 20, 2023, the Company, GRI and MBSC completed the Business Combination by way of a plan of arrangement under the ABCA and closed the PIPE Financing. On closing of the Business Combination, former equity holders of GRI were issued approximately 86% of the outstanding Common Shares and received their pro rata share of US$75 million, and former MBSC equity holders and PIPE Investors were issued approximately 14% of the outstanding Common Shares.

At closing of the Business Combination, certain private placement warrants of MBSC were exchanged for warrants to purchase Common Shares at an exercise price of US$11.50 per Common Share (each, a “Warrant”), with such Warrants governed by the terms a warrant agreement and an amended and restated warrant agreement, each dated as of September 20, 2023, by and between GRL, Computershare Inc. and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “WarrantAgreements”). Each Warrant expires on September 20, 2028.

Following completion of the Business Combination, on September 21, 2023, the Common Shares commenced trading on the NYSE under the symbol “GFR” and Greenfire became an SEC registrant.

2028 Notes

Concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, the Company redeemed GRI’s 12.00% senior secured notes due 2025 and issued US$300 million aggregate amount of 2028 Notes.

Credit Facilities

Concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, the Company entered into the Senior Credit Agreement to provide for the Senior Credit Facility. On November 1, 2023, the Company entered into the Letter of Credit Facility. The Letter of Credit Facility replaced the Company’s cash collateralized letter of credit facility, which was terminated and cancelled upon the Letter of Credit Facility coming into effect.

2024

TSX Listing and Becoming a Reporting Issuer in Canada

On February 2, 2024, Greenfire filed a final non-offering prospectus with the Alberta Securities Commission resulting in the Company becoming a reporting issuer in the Province of Alberta. On February 8, 2024, the Common Shares commenced trading on the TSX under the symbol “GFR” and Greenfire became a reporting issuer in the provinces of Alberta and Ontario.

Partial Redemption of 2028 Notes

On July 10, 2024, the Company redeemed approximately US$61 million of the 2028 Notes.

Acquisition of Control by Waterous Energy Fund

On November 8, 2024, WEF acquired 29,988,854 Common Shares, representing approximately 43.3% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares, from certain former shareholders of Greenfire. On December 23, 2024, WEF completed an acquisition of an additional 9,311,424 Common Shares and 2,654,179 Warrants from MBSC and Brigade Capital Management LP, increasing WEF’s interest in the Company to approximately 56.5% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on an undiluted basis. Collectively these acquisitions are referred to as “WEF Acquisition”.

On December 23, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into an investor agreement (the “Investor Agreement”) with WEF, among others, pursuant to which WEF agreed to, among other things, continue the Company’s strategic review process. Under the terms of the Investor Agreement, certain former directors of the Company resigned from the Board and six nominees proposed by WEF were appointed to the Board, with Adam Waterous appointed as the Chairman of the Board. The Investor Agreement terminated in accordance with its terms on May 6, 2025.


Change of Control Offer and Amendment tothe 2028 Note Indenture

On December 27, 2024, the Company announced the initiation of a change of control offer pertaining to its outstanding 2028 Notes. The offer concluded on February 19, 2025. A total of US$5,000 of aggregate principal amount of the Notes were validly tendered and redeemed.

Furthermore, effective March 1, 2025, the Company completed an amendment to the indenture governing the 2028 Notes, which had received requisite approval of the holders of the 2028 Notes, to increase the permitted capital expenditures from $100 million to US$150 million in any twelve-month period.

2025

Changes in Leadership

On February 11, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of Adam Waterous as Executive Chairman and Colin Germaniuk as President of the Company. As part of this leadership transition, certain former executive officers of the Company departed the Company on the same day.

On August 7, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of Travis Belak as Vice President, Finance of the Company and the departure of the former Chief Financial Officer.


Reporting of Sulphur Dioxide Exceedances

Following the changes in Greenfire’s board of directors as a result of the WEF Acquisition, it was brought to the Company’s attention that Greenfire’s sulphur dioxide emissions may have been underreported. Greenfire takes its regulatory obligations very seriously and immediately reported the potential exceedance to the Alberta Energy Regulator (“AER”). Greenfire has since installed sulphur removal facilities, with commissioning occurring in December 2025. These facilities are now fully operational, and the Company believes the Expansion Asset has returned to compliance with applicable sulphur dioxide emission limits.

Refinancing Initiatives

On December 19, 2025, the Company completed a series of refinancing initiatives, which included: (a) upsizing its Senior Credit Facility from $50 million to $275 million, (ii) the completion of a $300 million offering of rights (the “Rights”) to all eligible shareholders to purchase additional Common Shares of the Company (the “Rights Offering”), and (iii) the redemption of the Company’s outstanding US$237.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2028 Notes.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 10
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

At the completion of the Rights Offering and pursuant to the exercise of Rights, the Company issued an aggregate of 55,147,055 Common Shares, representing the maximum allotment available, without reliance on the standby commitment provided by certain limited partnerships comprising WEF pursuant to a Standby Purchase Agreement entered into among the Company and such limited partnerships on November 5, 2025 (the “Standby Purchase Agreement”). Each Right entitled the holder thereof to acquire 0.7849 of a Common Share, with no fractional Common Shares issued. Common Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of Rights were issued at a price of C$5.44 or US$3.85 per Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$298.7 million (after conversion of U.S. dollar subscriptions).

Warrant Adjustment

As a result of the completion of the Rights Offering, the terms of the Company’s outstanding Warrants were adjusted effective December 17, 2025, pursuant to automatic adjustment provisions contained in the Warrant Agreements. Following such adjustments, the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant increased from 1.0000 to 1.1707, and the warrant price was adjusted from US$11.50 to US$9.82 per Common Share.

Recent Developments

Internal Reorganization

Effective January 2, 2026, the Company completed an internal reorganization involving the elimination of a limited partnership structure through which the Expansion Asset and the Demo Asset were held, and the amalgamation of Greenfire Resources Employment Corporation and the general partners of such limited partnerships with GROC.

PROJECTS OVERVIEW

Greenfire is an oil sands producer focused on the development of its long-life and low decline thermal oil assets in the Athabasca region of Alberta, Canada. The Company is actively developing its Hangingstone Facilities using SAGD, an enhanced oil recovery extraction method.

Hangingstone Expansion Asset

The Company owns a 75% working interest in the Expansion Asset, with the remaining 25% being owned by CNOOC Petroleum North America ULC. The Company operates the Expansion Asset pursuant to the joint operating and ownership agreement dated effective October 16, 2012 between JACOS, as predecessor to the Company, and Nexen Inc., as predecessor to CNOOC Limited (the “JV Agreement”). The Expansion Asset is located in the southern Athabasca region of Northeastern Alberta, approximately 50 kilometers southwest of Fort McMurray.

The Expansion Asset was originally constructed by Japan Canada Oil Sands Limited (“JACOS”), with Phase I construction commenced in 2013. The Expansion Asset’s first steam occurred in April 2017 and first production occurred in July 2017. Since the commencement of production in 2017, 32 well pairs have been developed at the Expansion Asset, including 18 producer re-drills. In 2025, the annual average gross production from the Expansion Asset was 14,320 bbls/d (approximately 10,740 bbls/d net to Greenfire’s working interest) of bitumen. The Expansion Asset produces bitumen that is blended with condensate to create Western Dilbit Blend, or WDB, which is a diluted bitumen that is widely accepted by refiners in Canada and the United States.

Greenfire has an interest in 17,730 gross hectares (13,298 net hectares) of land at the Expansion Asset. McDaniel, an independent qualified reserves and resources evaluator, estimated that the Expansion Asset contained approximately 389 million barrels of gross proved plus probable (“2P”) bitumen reserves, as at December 31, 2025. The Expansion Asset has a 2P reserves life index of approximately 99 years based on 2025 average daily production volumes.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 11
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company expects that its future development plans will include drilling new well pairs on undeveloped reservoir at the Expansion Asset to grow production while emphasizing operational stability and safety.

Hangingstone Demo Asset

The Company owns a 100% working interest in the Demo Asset, which is located approximately five kilometers from the Expansion Asset.

The Demo Asset, initially commissioned in 1999 by JACOS, was established as a demonstration project to validate the economic feasibility of enhanced thermal oil recovery. Since production began in 1999, a total of 25 well pairs have been developed at the facility, including 8 producer re-drills. In 2025, the annual average bitumen production from the Demo Asset was 5,429 bbls/d.

Greenfire holds an interest in 974 hectares of land at the Demo Asset. McDaniel, an independent qualified reserves and resources evaluator, assessed the Demo Asset’s 2P bitumen reserves at approximately 20 million barrels as of December 31, 2025. The Demo Asset’s 2P reserves life index is estimated at approximately 10 years based on 2025 average daily production volumes.

Unlike other thermal oil assets in western Canada, bitumen production from the Demo Asset is distinctive because it is currently extracted without the addition of diluent or synthetic oils, which enhances flexibility in marketing and sales options. The primary destination for the Demo Asset’s bitumen is the truck offloading facility at the Expansion Asset, where trucked volumes are blended with condensate and transported via pipeline through the WDB stream. Additionally, the diluent-free bitumen from the Demo Asset can be trucked to alternative sales points, such as other terminals or refineries in Alberta, and transported by rail to the United States for WTI-indexed pricing, when economically advantageous.

The Company expects that its future development plans will prioritize optimizing base production at the Demo Asset.

INFRASTRUCTURE AND MARKETING OVERVIEW

Infrastructure at the Hangingstone Facilities

There is significant infrastructure in place at the Hangingstone Facilities to support reliable operations and long-term production growth.

The Expansion Asset is equipped with pipeline connections for both diluted bitumen and diluent transportation. Consequently, all production from the Expansion Asset, along with the majority of production from the Demo Asset—after being transported by truck from the Demo Asset to the truck offloading facility at the Expansion Asset—is moved to market via pipeline.

For the SAGD process, natural gas is utilized to generate steam. The Company purchases natural gas from the AECO hub which is then supplied through a pipeline on the Nova Gas Transmission Limited system. All electricity required for the Company’s operations is purchased from the Alberta electricity grid.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Marketing Strategy at the Hangingstone Facilities

The Company transports its production to market through long-term transportation service agreements. The Expansion Asset is connected by pipeline for diluted bitumen transportation via an Enbridge owned lateral pipeline to the Enbridge Cheecham Terminal. The Cheecham terminal is a 3.3 million barrel facility, which provides access to key hubs in Edmonton, Alberta, via the Waupisoo Pipeline, and Hardisty, Alberta, via the Athabasca and Wood Buffalo pipelines. Greenfire maintains both committed and interruptible long-term transportation agreements on these dilbit egress pipelines, ensuring access to the Edmonton and Hardisty transfer points. At these transfer points, the Company realizes its pricing based on the WDB pooled benchmark price.

For its blending operations, the Expansion Asset sources condensate through a pipeline connection from major diluent supplies in Edmonton, Alberta, via the Polaris Pipeline. The Company has secured long-term transportation commitments on the Polaris Pipeline to ensure consistent and reliable access to diluent supply.

Marketing Agreements

The Company maintains three distinct marketing agreements with Trafigura Canada Limited (successor to Trafigura Canada General Partnership), hereinafter referred to as the “PetroleumMarketer.” Under these agreements, the Petroleum Marketer acquires all of the Company’s bitumen and blend products and arranges transportation via pipelines and trucks for the Company’s products and condensate, in return for a marketing fee. The agreements are outlined as follows:

1. Demo Marketing Agreement: Pursuant to a marketing agreement dated April 1, 2021, between the Company<br>and the Petroleum Marketer, as amended periodically (the “Demo Marketing Agreement”), the Petroleum Marketer is obligated<br>to purchase, and the Company is obligated to sell, 100% of the monthly bitumen production from the Demo Asset. The purchase price is determined<br>by the weighted average of all third-party sales of the product acquired by the Petroleum Marketer, subject to adjustments based on various<br>factors. Additional fees and payments are also payable by the Company, subject to production rates, revenues and commodity pricing at<br>the Demo Asset. Portions of this agreement are set to expire on April 1, 2026, with certain fees payable until the Demo Asset reaches<br>agreed upon production. Following the termination of this agreement, Greenfire intends to market its own production volumes from the Demo<br>asset.
2. Expansion Marketing Agreement: Under a marketing agreement dated September 17, 2021, between the<br>Company and the Petroleum Marketer, as amended periodically (the “Expansion Marketing Agreement”), the Petroleum Marketer<br>is committed to purchasing 100% of the monthly diluted bitumen volumes from the Expansion Asset. The purchase price is calculated as the<br>weighted average of all third-party sales of the product acquired by the Petroleum Marketer, with adjustments based on various factors.<br>This agreement is scheduled to terminate on October 1, 2028.
--- ---
3. Expansion Diluent Condensate Agreement: Pursuant to a marketing agreement dated September 17, 2021,<br>between the Company and the Petroleum Marketer, as amended periodically (the “Expansion Diluent Condensate Agreement”),<br>the Petroleum Marketer agrees to supply 100% of the condensate required by the Company for blending with its bitumen production to meet<br>pipeline specifications. The purchase price is based on the weighted average market price for condensate at the time of sale, subject<br>to adjustments based on various factors. This agreement is set to expire on October 1, 2028.
--- ---

Infrastructure Connectivity to North American Heavy Oil Markets

The Company realizes pricing for its production at transfer points in Edmonton and Hardisty, Alberta, which are key hubs for heavy oil in western Canada. These locations are interconnected via pipelines to major refining regions in Canada, as well as the United States, including the Midwest and Gulf Coast, providing access to broad markets for Canadian heavy oil.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Greenfire maintained a total of 56 gross (48 net) horizontal wells capable of producing bitumen as of December 31, 2025. By the end of 2025, the Company has drilled 4 redevelopment wells, which are accounted for within its SAGD well pair inventory. Over the past three fiscal years, Greenfire has not drilled any exploratory wells or recorded any dry exploratory or development wells.

As evaluated by McDaniel as of December 31, 2025, Greenfire’s proved undeveloped reserves are associated with planned well locations within an AER approved development area. These locations are situated within three miles of existing bitumen-producing wells at the Company’s Expansion Asset and Demo Asset. The development of Greenfire’s proved undeveloped reserves is planned to proceed systematically. Additional well pairs, and infill wells will be drilled, as required, to utilize available steam capacity as existing well pairs complete their steam injection phases. The reserves life index on Greenfire’s proved reserves is approximately 39 years from the evaluation date based on 2025 average daily production volumes. As of December 31, 2025, Greenfire has no properties with attributed reserves that are capable of production but are not producing.

Land Acreage

All of Greenfire’s acreage is located in the Province of Alberta and is held indefinitely. There are no near-term acreage expirations. The following table shows Greenfire’s total gross and net mineral rights acreage by asset location as of December 31, 2025:

Hangingstone Demo 100 974 974
Total Acreage 18,704 14,272

Geology

Greenfire’s reserves at the Hangingstone Facilities are located in the McMurray Formation, a geological deposit from the Cretaceous period. This formation consists of sands and shales that were deposited in river and coastal environments. The sands, where thick, comprise the reservoir, which hold a mix of bitumen and water that has migrated into the pore space. Marine mudstones sit atop the reservoir forming a competent caprock that provides containment of fluids and pressure. The bitumen in this formation is notably dense, with an average API gravity of approximately 8 degrees.

The McMurray Formation’s loose sand is well-suited for the in-situ recovery method of SAGD. The SAGD extraction method heats up the bitumen by injecting steam, reducing its viscosity and allowing it to flow within the reservoir to ultimately be extracted to the surface. The reservoir lies at an average depth of 360 meters (about 1,180 feet) below ground, with thickness ranging from 10 to 48 meters (32 to 157 feet), with an average thickness of approximately 19 meters (62 feet). The sand is saturated with bitumen at levels ranging from 75% to 85%, with an average porosity of 33%, providing significant pore space to hold the bitumen. The permeability of the sand, a measure of how easily fluids can flow through it, ranges from 3,500 to 6,100 millidarcies, indicating strong flow potential. The reservoir’s initial pressure is 2,100 kPa (approximately 300 psi), and its temperature is approximately 10°C (50°F). At this temperature, the bitumen is extremely thick, with a viscosity exceeding 1,000,000 centipoise, comparable to cold tar at initial reservoir conditions.

Greenfire does not anticipate any material expirations of its rights to explore, develop, or produce on its unproved properties before December 31, 2026. Additionally, the company has no significant work commitments associated with these properties.

For any properties with no reserves or on unproved lands, Greenfire does not have unusually high expected development costs or operating costs, or contractual obligations to produce and sell a significant portion of production at prices substantially below those which could be realized but for those contractual obligations. Operating expenditures and abandonment and reclamation costs for all properties with no reserves or on unproved lands are included in the Company’s asset retirement disclosures in the financial statements of the Company.

Competition

The petroleum industry is competitive in all of its phases. Greenfire competes with numerous other entities in the exploration, development, production and marketing of oil. Greenfire’s competitors include oil and natural gas companies that have substantially greater financial resources, workforce and facilities than those of Greenfire. Some of these companies not only explore for, develop and produce oil, but also carry on refining operations and market oil and natural gas on an international basis. As a result of these complementary activities, some of these competitors may have greater and more diverse competitive resources to draw on than Greenfire. Greenfire’s ability to increase its reserves in the future will depend not only on its ability to explore and develop its present properties, but also on its ability to select and acquire other suitable producing properties or prospects for exploratory drilling. Competitive factors in the distribution and marketing of oil include price, process, and reliability of delivery and storage.

Greenfire also faces competition from companies that supply alternative resources of energy, such as wind or solar power. Other factors that could affect competition in the marketplace include additional discoveries of Hydrocarbon reserves by Greenfire’s competitors, changes in the cost of production, and political and economic factors and other factors outside of Greenfire’s control.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The petroleum industry is characterized by rapid and significant technological advancements and introductions of new products and services utilizing new technologies that may increase the viability of reserves or reduce production costs. Other companies may have greater financial, technical and personnel resources that allow them to implement and benefit from such technological advantages. Greenfire may not be able to respond to such competitive pressures and implement such technologies on a timely basis, or at an acceptable cost. If Greenfire does implement such technologies, Greenfire may not do so successfully. One or more of the technologies currently used or implemented in the future by Greenfire may become obsolete or uneconomic. If Greenfire is unable to employ the most advanced commercially available technology, or is unsuccessful in implementing certain technologies, its business, financial condition and results of operations could also be adversely affected in a material way.

Seasonality

The level of activity in the Canadian oil and gas industry is influenced by seasonal weather patterns. A mild winter or wet spring may result in limited access and, as a result, reduced operations or a cessation of operations. Greenfire operates in an area of extreme weather conditions. Cold temperatures affect the properties of diluent and bitumen and may contribute to production difficulties, delivery problems and increased operating costs. Winter driving conditions in Northern Alberta can affect truck transportation of Greenfire’s bitumen, and cold weather can lead to equipment failure and slowdown. Warmer temperatures can lead to equipment failures and slowdowns not only at the Expansion Asset and Demo Asset but can also affect delivery of operating inputs such as natural gas and cause power price surges.

Municipalities and provincial transportation departments enforce road bans that restrict the movement of drilling rigs and other heavy equipment during periods of wet weather, thereby reducing activity levels. Also, certain oil and natural gas producing areas are located in areas that are inaccessible other than during the winter months because the ground surrounding the sites in these areas consists of swampy terrain. Seasonal factors and unexpected weather patterns may lead to increases or declines in exploration and production activity as well as increases or declines in the demand for the goods Greenfire produces.

Specialized Skill and Knowledge

Greenfire employs individuals with various professional skills in the course of pursuing its business plan. These professional skills include, but are not limited to, experience in geology, geophysics, engineering, data analytics, financial and business skills. In addition, various consultants are engaged in specialized skills as required. Greenfire believes it has adequate personnel with the necessary specialized skills and knowledge to successfully carry out its business and operations.

Employees

As at December 31, 2025, Greenfire had 76 full-time employees and 10 consultants located at its Calgary office, and 121 full-time employees and 20 contracted operators in various field locations.

STATEMENT OF RESERVES DATA AND OTHER OIL AND GAS INFORMATION

Summary of Oil and Gas Reserves Data

As at December 31, 2025, all of Greenfire’s reserves were located in Canada and, specifically, in the Province of Alberta. The Company’s reserves have been evaluated, and all of Greenfire’s reserves and other oil and gas information has been prepared and presented, in accordance with NI 51-101. McDaniel, an independent petroleum consulting firm based in Calgary, Alberta, has evaluated the petroleum reserves associated with all of Greenfire’s properties. McDaniel used the average of the commodity price forecasts and inflation rates of Sproule Associates Limited (“Sproule”), McDaniel and GLJ Ltd. (“GLJ”) as of January 1, 2026 to prepare the McDaniel Report. The reserves data presented in the McDaniel Report, which include reserves volumes and net present values, were prepared in accordance with the COGE Handbook.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The McDaniel Report adheres in all material aspects to the principles and definitions established by the Calgary Chapter of the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers regarding annual reserves reports that are being released in the public domain. The standards in the COGE Handbook require McDaniel to plan and perform an assessment of the Company’s reserves data in order to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether such reserves data is free of material misstatement.

The following sections and tables summarize, as at December 31, 2025, Greenfire’s reserves and the estimated net present values of future net revenues associated with such reserves, together with certain information, estimates and assumptions associated with such reserves estimates. The data contained in the tables is a summary of the evaluations and, as a result, the tables may contain slightly different numbers than the evaluations themselves due to rounding. Additionally, the columns and rows in the tables may not add due to rounding. For information relating to the changes in the volumes of the Company’s reserves from December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025, see “—Reconciliation of Changesin Reserves” below.

All evaluations of future revenue are stated after the deduction of royalties, operating costs, development costs and abandonment, decommission and reclamation costs.

All estimates of future net revenues are stated prior to provision for interest and after deduction of royalties and estimated future capital expenditures and are presented both before and after deducting income taxes. For additional information, see “—Tax Horizon”, “Industry Conditions” and “Risk Factors” in this Annual Information Form.

With respect to pricing information in the following reserves information, the wellhead oil prices were adjusted for quality and transportation based on historical actual prices.


It should not be assumed that the estimatesof future net revenues presented in the tables below represent the fair market value of the reserves. There are numerous uncertaintiesinherent in estimating quantities of bitumen reserves and the future cash flows attributed to such reserves. The reserves and associatedcash flow information set forth herein are estimates only. There is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered.

Undeveloped Reserves

The following tables disclose the volumes of proved undeveloped bitumen reserves and probable undeveloped bitumen reserves of Greenfire that were first attributed in the years indicated.

Proved Undeveloped Reserves

Bitumen<br> (Mbbl)
Year Attributed<br><br> in year Total at<br><br> year-end
2023 6,797 152,396
2024 60,225 207,907
2025 869 208,314

Proved undeveloped reserves are assigned to lands inside the approved development areas. These areas also contain sufficient stratigraphic drilling to demonstrate with a high degree of certainty the presence of bitumen in commercially recoverable volumes. McDaniel’s standard for sufficient drilling in a fluvial SAGD formation is a minimum of eight stratigraphic wells per section with 3D seismic or 16 stratigraphic wells per section with no seismic. Greenfire has approximately 208 MMbbls of proved undeveloped reserves.

Development of the proved undeveloped reserves is expected to occur over the next 33 years. Timing of the investment and the desired pace of development will depend to a large extent on economic conditions, including, in particular, world commodity prices.

Probable Undeveloped Reserves

Bitumen<br> (Mbbl)
Year Attributed<br><br> in year Total at<br><br> year-end
2023 2,173 48,364
2024 120,423 167,567
2025 549 171,398

Probable undeveloped reserves are assigned to lands outside the development areas where the Company has firm development intent with sufficient levels of delineation. The lands assigned probable reserves are in close proximity to the initial developments and contain sufficient drilling of stratigraphic wells to establish reservoir suitability for SAGD. McDaniel’s standard for probable reserves is a minimum of four stratigraphic wells per section. Greenfire has 171 MMboe of probable undeveloped reserves.

Development of the probable undeveloped reserves is expected to occur over the next 50 years. Timing of the investment and the desired pace of development will depend to a large extent on performance of new and existing wells and economic conditions, including, in particular, world commodity prices.

See “Statement of Reserves Data and OtherOil and Gas—Future Development Costs” for a description of Greenfire’s exploration and development plans and expenditures.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Significant Factors or Uncertainties

The process of evaluating reserves is inherently complex. It requires significant judgments and decisions based on available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data. These estimates may change substantially as additional data from ongoing development activities and production performance becomes available and as economic conditions impacting oil and gas prices and costs change. The reserves estimates contained herein are based on current production forecasts, prices and economic conditions and other factors and assumptions that may affect the reserves estimates and the present worth of the future net revenue therefrom. These factors and assumptions include, among others: (i) historical production in the area compared with production rates from analogous producing areas; (ii) initial production rates; (iii) production decline rates; (iv) ultimate recovery of reserves; (v) success of future development activities; (vi) marketability of production; (vii) effects of government regulations; and (viii) other government levies imposed over the life of the reserves. Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure that reserves estimates are accurate, reserves estimation is an inferential science. As a result, subjective decisions, new geological or production information and a changing environment may impact these estimates.

Greenfire has a significant amount of proved undeveloped and probable undeveloped reserves assigned to its properties. As circumstances change and additional data becomes available, reserves estimates also change. Estimates are reviewed and revised, either upward or downward, as warranted by new information. Revisions are often required due to changes in well performance, prices, economic conditions and government restrictions. Revisions to reserves estimates can arise from changes in year-end prices, reservoir performance and geologic conditions or production. These revisions can be either positive or negative. Degradation in future commodity price forecasts relative to the forecast in the McDaniel Report can also have a negative impact on the economics and timing of development of undeveloped reserves, unless significant reduction in the future costs of development are realized.

Other than the foregoing, Greenfire does not anticipate any significant economic factors or significant uncertainties that may affect any particular components of this statement of reserves data and other oil and gas information. However, reserves can be affected significantly by fluctuations in product pricing, capital expenditures, operating costs, royalty regimes and well performance that are beyond Greenfire’s control.

Abandonment and Reclamation Costs

The Company follows IFRS to account for and report the estimated cost of future site abandonment and reclamation. This standard requires liability recognition for retirement obligations associated with long-lived assets, which would include abandonment of wells and related facilities, natural gas wells and related facilities, removal of equipment from leased acreage and returning such land to a condition equivalent to its original condition. Under the standard, the estimated cost of each decommissioning obligation is recorded in the period a well or related asset is drilled, constructed or acquired. The obligation is estimated using the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to abandon the asset at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free rate. The obligation is reviewed regularly by management based upon current regulations, costs, technologies and industry standards. The discounted obligation is recognized as a liability and is accreted against income until it is settled, or the property is sold and is included as a component of net finance expense. Actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated obligation as incurred.

The Company’s decommissioning obligation is the estimated cost of future abandonment and reclamation of the Company’s existing long-lived assets. As of December 31, 2025, the estimated total inflated but undiscounted amount required to settle the decommissioning obligations in respect of all the Company’s facilities and wells, was $342.8 million. This obligation is estimated to be settled in periods up to 2078. The discounted present value of this amount is $19.9 million as reported in the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The McDaniel Report estimate of abandonment and reclamation costs is an estimate of the amount required to abandon and reclaim the entire development (including well sites, gathering systems and processing facilities) over the life of the reserves. In the McDaniel Report, abandonment and reclamation costs for total proved plus probable reserves were estimated to be $290 million, undiscounted, and $12 million, discounted at 10%. These costs include the abandonment, decommissioning and reclamation of the entire Hangingstone Facilities, infrastructure, currently drilled SAGD and observation wells plus the future well pairs, infills and observation wells anticipated to be required to develop the assigned reserves over the life of the Hangingstone Facilities. These estimates do not include abandonment and reclamation costs or other liabilities outside of the Hangingstone Facilities, which the Company has included in determining its total decommissioning provision.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Tax Horizon

In 2025, Greenfire was not required to pay any Canadian income related taxes. It is expected, based upon current legislation, the projections contained in the McDaniel Report, proved plus probable analysis and various other assumptions, that no income taxes will be required to be paid by Greenfire until 2032. A higher level of capital expenditures than those contained in the McDaniel Report, or further additional acquisitions, could further extend the estimated tax horizon.

Forward Contracts

Greenfire may use financial derivatives to manage its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign exchange and interest rates. These include contracts for management of price exposures associated with crude oil, crude oil differentials, condensate, natural gas liquids, natural gas, electricity, carbon and renewable power contracts and may include contracts for exposure management unrelated to crude oil sales price risk management. Refer to the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 for additional details on outstanding risk management contracts.

Senior Credit Facility

Greenfire’s Senior Credit Facility comprised of a $30 million revolving operating credit facility and a $245 million revolving syndicated facility. The Senior Credit Facility is a committed facility available on a revolving basis until maturity. The current maturity date for the Senior Credit Facility is November 30, 2027, which is extendable from time to time for a period of up to two years, subject to applicable lender consents. The Senior Credit Facility is reserve-based and is subject to semi-annual borrowing base reviews occurring in May and November of each year. The borrowing base is determined based on the lenders’ assessment and evaluation of the Company’s hydrocarbon reserves, commodity price outlooks and other factors determined by the lenders, in each case, at the time of each borrowing base review, and determines the available lending limit under the Senior Credit Facility. As at December 31, 2025, the borrowing base limit was $275 million.

The Senior Credit Facility is not subject to any financial covenants or scheduled amortization payments, and no mandatory principal payments (other than at maturity) are required under the Senior Credit Facility. The Senior Credit Agreement contains standard non-financial covenants and events of default for customary facilities of this nature. The lenders may accelerate payment of any borrowings or terminate their commitments upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of an event of default.

The Letter of Credit Facility is a $55 million letter of credit facility with a financial institution that is supported by a performance security guarantee from Export Development Canada. Greenfire and its subsidiaries have indemnified Export Development Canada for the amount of any payment made by Export Development Canada to the financial institution pursuant to those guarantees; however, the obligations under such indemnity are unsecured. The Letter of Credit Facility is uncommitted and made available at the sole discretion of the financial institution. The financial institution can demand repayment and/or cancel the availability of the Letter of Credit Facility at any time. Letters of credit issued under the Letter of Credit Facility do not reduce the borrowing capacity under the Senior Credit Facility.

DIVIDENDS

There is no dividend or distribution policy in place for the Company. Historically, except in connection with the Business Combination, neither the Company nor its predecessors, has paid any dividends. The Company currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, for future operations, expansion and debt repayment. Any decision to declare and pay dividends will be made at the discretion of the Board and will depend on, among other things, the Company’s results of operations, current and anticipated cash requirements and surplus, financial condition, contractual restrictions and financing agreement covenants, solvency tests imposed by corporate law and other factors that the Board may deem relevant.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company’s ability to pay dividends now or in the future may be limited by covenants contained in the agreements governing any indebtedness that the Company has incurred or may incur in the future, including the terms the Senior Credit Agreement.

Further, the Company’s ability to pay dividends will be subject to applicable laws, the covenants and restrictions under the Senior Credit Agreement and to any prior right to dividend, interest or other distribution payments in favour of any other securityholders. The Senior Credit Agreement contains certain restrictions on the Company’s ability to pay dividends. See “Description of Capital Structure—Senior Credit Facility” in this Annual Information Form.

INDUSTRY CONDITIONS

Companies operating in the Canadian oil and gas industry are subject to extensive regulation and control of operations (including with respect to land tenure, exploration, development, production, refining and upgrading, transportation, and marketing) as a result of legislation enacted by various levels of government as well as with respect to the pricing and taxation of petroleum and natural gas through legislation enacted by, and agreements among, the federal and provincial governments of Canada, all of which should be carefully considered by investors in the Company. All current legislation is a matter of public record and the Company is unable to predict what additional legislation or amendments governments may enact in the future.

The Company’s assets and operations are regulated by administrative agencies that derive their authority from legislation enacted by the applicable level of government. Regulated aspects of the Company’s upstream oil and natural gas business include all manner of activities associated with the exploration for and production of oil and natural gas, including, among other matters: (i) permits for the drilling of wells and construction of related infrastructure; (ii) technical drilling and well requirements; (iii) permitted locations and access to operation sites; (iv) operating standards regarding conservation of produced substances and avoidance of waste, such as restricting flaring and venting; (v) minimizing environmental impacts, including by reducing emissions; (vi) storage, injection and disposal of substances associated with production operations; and (vii) the abandonment and reclamation of impacted sites. To conduct oil and natural gas operations and remain in good standing with the applicable federal or provincial regulatory scheme, producers must comply with applicable legislation, regulations, orders, directives and other directions (all of which are subject to governmental oversight, review and revision, from time to time). Compliance in this regard can be costly and a breach of the same may result in fines or other sanctions.

The discussion below outlines some of the principal aspects of the legislation, regulations, approvals, agreements, orders, and directives, and a summary of other pertinent conditions that impact the oil and gas industry in Western Canada, specifically in the province of Alberta where the Company’s assets are located. While these matters do not affect the Company’s operations in any manner that is materially different than the manner in which they affect other similarly sized industry participants with similar assets and operations, investors should consider such matters carefully.

Pricing and Marketing in Canada

The price of crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs is negotiated by buyers and sellers. A number of factors may influence prices, including (global, in some instances) supply and demand, quality of product, distance to market, availability of transportation, value of refined products, prices of competing products, price of competing stock, contract terms, weather conditions, supply/demand balance and contractual terms of sale.

Exports from Canada

The CER regulates the export of oil, natural gas and NGLs from Canada through the issuance of short-term orders and long-term export licenses pursuant to its authority under the Canadian Energy Regulator Act (the “CERA”). Exporters are free to negotiate prices and other terms with purchasers, provided that the export contracts continue to meet certain criteria prescribed by the CER and the federal government. The Company does not directly enter into contracts to export its production outside of Canada.

Draft federal regulations related to the issuance of export orders by the CER were released for comment on December 14, 2024, with the comment period closing on January 28, 2025. The draft federal regulations, including the proposed Export Applications (Licenses and Permits) Regulations and the Export and Import(Orders, Licenses and Permits) Regulations, are expected to be enacted in 2026 and are intended to simplify and streamline regulatory requirements for businesses involved in the export and import of oil and natural gas in accordance with the provisions of the CERA.

Under Canadian constitutional law, the development and operation of interprovincial and international pipelines fall within the federal government’s jurisdiction and, under the CERA, new interprovincial and international pipelines require a federal regulatory review and Cabinet approval before they can proceed. However, recent years have seen a perceived lack of policy and regulatory certainty in this regard such that, even when projects are approved, they may face delays due to, for example, actions taken by provincial and municipal governments and opposition related to issues such as Indigenous rights and title, the government’s duty to consult and accommodate Indigenous peoples and the sufficiency of all relevant environmental review processes. Export pipelines from Canada to the United States face additional unpredictability as such pipelines also require approvals from various levels of government in the United States.

The federal government’s jurisdiction over interprovincial and international pipelines is not exclusive. For example, provincial environmental laws set requirements for pipeline construction, operation, and abandonment, and set standards for pipeline safety and environmental incidents. Such provincial laws may apply to an interprovincial or international pipeline to the extent that the law does not interfere with the ‎‎“core” of the federal government’s jurisdiction, pursuant to the constitutional doctrine of interjurisdictional immunity. However, pursuant to the constitutional doctrine of federal paramountcy, where federal and provincial enactments are inconsistent with one another, the federal law will prevail.

Producers transport their products to market via pipeline on a firm or interruptible basis depending on the specific pipeline and the specific substance. Transportation availability is highly variable across different jurisdictions and regions. This variability can determine the nature of transportation commitments available, the number of potential customers and the price received.

Transportation Constraints and Market Access

Capacity to transport production from Western Canada to Eastern Canada, the United States and other international markets has been, and continues to be, a major constraint on the exportation of crude oil, natural gas and NGLs. Although certain pipeline and other transportation projects have been announced or are underway, many proposed projects have been cancelled or delayed due to regulatory hurdles, court challenges and economic and socio-political factors. Due in part to growing production and a lack of new and expanded pipeline and rail infrastructure capacity, producers in Western Canada have experienced low commodity pricing relative to other markets in the last several years.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Oil Pipelines

The Edmonton and Fort Saskatchewan area of Alberta is the largest crude oil refining centre in Western Canada. The primary crude oil export pipelines originating in the Edmonton and Fort Saskatchewan area are the Trans Mountain Pipeline System (“TMPL”) (discussed below) and the Enbridge Mainline. The Company’s ability to sell crude oil depends, in large part, on the accessibility, availability, proximity, and capacity of pipeline systems. Where a company can secure firm access to pipelines to transport oil out of Western Canada, it may be able to access more markets and obtain better pricing. However, limited pipeline capacity, and the resulting pro-rationing of capacity, has affected the ability to export crude oil out of Western Canada. As a result, companies have been prevented from achieving the full economic value of their products.

Select Oil Pipeline Updates

On June 1, 2023, Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC (“TransMountain”) submitted an application to the CER for approval of a final interim toll for service on the expanded TMPL, which continues to be underway. Final toll approval will follow on a subsequent application by Trans Mountain to the CER. On November 30, 2023, the CER approved the preliminary interim tolls which currently apply to transportation service on the expanded TMPL system. The Trans Mountain Expansion Project was declared by TMPL to be in-service on May 1, 2024. The federal government currently owns the TMPL (through subsidiaries) and has been in discussions with Indigenous groups and businesses regarding selling significant equity stakes in the pipeline, however no agreements have yet been reached.

On January 7, 2025, the Government of Alberta announced that it had signed a Letter of Intent with Enbridge Inc. (“Enbridge”) to evaluate future egress, transport, storage, terminalling and market access opportunities across Enbridge’s North American network. The Government of Alberta plans to guarantee oil volumes that will be shipped on Enbridge’s network with the goal of encouraging pipeline expansion, thereby providing access to additional markets.

On November 27, 2025, the federal government and Government of Alberta signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“Canada/Alberta MOU”) which addressed, among other things, the construction of one or more pipelines (to be constructed and financed by the private sector) with capacity of at least one million barrels a day of bitumen and a route to the West Coast that increases export access to Asian markets as a priority. Pursuant to the Canada/Alberta MOU, Alberta committed to act as a proponent for advancing the development of the pipeline. Preparatory work related to the Canada/Alberta MOU is underway, with a pipeline proposal to be submitted by Alberta by July 1, 2026.

Natural Gas Pipelines and LNG

Natural gas prices in Western Canada have been constrained in recent years due to increasing North American supply, limited access to markets and limited storage capacity. Companies that secure firm access to infrastructure to transport their natural gas production out of Western Canada may be able to access more markets and obtain better pricing. Companies without firm access may be forced to accept spot pricing in Western Canada for their natural gas, which is generally lower than the prices received in other North American regions. The Company consumes natural gas for its SAGD operations and has entered into firm transportation delivery contracts to mitigate its risk of not receiving sufficient amounts of natural gas for its operations.

Select Natural Gas Pipeline and Proposed LNG Export Terminal Updates

While a number of LNG export plants have been proposed in Canada, regulatory and legal uncertainty, social and political opposition and changing market conditions have resulted in the cancellation or delay of many of these projects. Nonetheless, there are currently multiple LNG export projects in various stages of development. For example, LNG Canada Development Inc. (“LNG Canada”), a joint venture of global LNG companies, has developed Canada’s first large-scale LNG export facility (“LNG Canada Facility”). The LNG Canada Facility, located in Kitimat, British Columbia, receives natural gas from producers in northeastern British Columbia via the Coastal GasLink pipeline (“CGLPipeline”). In June 2025, the first shipment of LNG was exported from the LNG Canada Facility.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 30
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

With more Alberta and northeastern British Columbia gas moving through the CGL Pipeline, it is expected that the NGTL System will have more capacity which is, in turn, expected to result in a narrower price relationship between the AECO and New York Mercantile Exchange gas prices. The Company anticipates it will see higher AECO pricing, more in line with the United States market, and generally, higher gas prices overall.

Woodfibre LNG Limited is currently constructing the “Woodfibre LNG Facility” in Squamish, British Columbia. Upon completion, the Woodfibre LNG Facility will produce approximately 2.1 million tonnes of LNG per year. Completion of the project is currently expected to occur in late 2027.

Cedar LNG Partners LP is currently constructing the “Cedar LNG Facility” in Kitimat, British Columbia. Upon completion, the Cedar LNG Facility will have a capacity of 3 million tonnes of LNG per year. Completion of the project is currently expected to occur in late 2028.

In addition to the LNG Canada Facility, the CGL Pipeline and the Woodfibre LNG Facility, a number of other LNG projects are underway at varying stages of progress, though none have reached a positive final investment decision.

International Trade Agreements

Canada is party to a number of international trade agreements with other countries around the world that generally provide for, among other things, preferential access to various international markets for certain Canadian export products. Examples of such trade agreements include the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, the United Kingdom and Canada entered into the Canada-United Kingdom Trade Continuity Agreement, the Comprehensive and ProgressiveAgreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership and, most prominently, the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (“CUSMA”). However, despite these trade agreements, the lack of available infrastructure for the offshore export of crude oil and natural gas may limit the ability of Canadian crude oil and natural gas producers to benefit from such trade agreements.

On March 4, 2025, a 25% tariff on all goods originating in Canada and imported into the U.S. and a 10% tariff on “energy and energy resources” from Canada, became effective. In response, the Government of Canada imposed 25% tariffs on an aggregate of $155 billion in goods imported from the U.S., coming into effect in two phases starting on March 4, 2025. On March 6, 2025, the U.S. agreed to exempt from tariffs imports of Canadian goods subject to CUSMA. On August 1, 2025, the U.S. increased the previous 25% tariff on Canadian goods to 35%, however goods subject to CUSMA remain exempt. On August 22, 2025, the Government of Canada announced that effective September 1, 2025, it will lift its 25% retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods that had been in place since March 4, 2025, as well as on miscellaneous consumer products that had been enacted as part of the countermeasures in place since March 13, 2025. Revisions to tariff rates and applications have been fluctuating since such time and remain uncertain. The implementation of tariffs and/or further retaliatory trade measures, if implemented, could increase the costs for Canadian exporters and may substantially impact the trade relationship between the United States and Canada. See “Risk FactorsTradeRelations and Tariffs”.

In 2026, the Free Trade Commission, composed of government representatives from Canada, U.S. and Mexico, are expected to conduct a formal joint review of CUSMA to determine if the parties wish to extend CUSMA beyond its expiration in 2032. This review may result in material revisions to CUSMA and may substantially alter the trade relationship between the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Land Tenure

In Alberta, the rights to crude oil and natural gas are predominantly owned by the provincial government. The provincial government grants rights to explore for and produce crude oil and natural gas pursuant to leases, licenses, and permits for varying terms, and on conditions set forth in provincial legislation, including requirements to perform specific work or make payments. Private ownership of crude oil and natural gas also exists in Western Canada.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 31
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Government and private leases are generally granted for an initial fixed term but may generally be continued provided certain minimum levels of drilling operations or production have been achieved and all lease rentals have been timely paid, subject to certain exceptions. To develop minerals, including crude oil and natural gas, it is necessary for the mineral estate owner(s) to have access to the surface estate. Under common law in Canada, the mineral estate is considered the “dominant” estate with the right to extract minerals subject to reasonable use of the surface. Alberta has developed and adopted its own statutes that operators must follow both prior to drilling and following drilling, including notification requirements and the provision of compensation for lost land use and surface damages. The surface rights required for pipelines and facilities are generally governed by leases, easements, rights-of-way, permits or licenses granted by landowners or governmental authorities.

Royalties and Incentives

Royalties

In addition to federal regulation, each province has legislation and regulations which govern royalties, production rates and other matters. The royalty regime in a given province is a significant factor in the profitability of oil, natural gas, and NGL production. Royalties from production on Crown lands are determined by governmental regulation and are generally calculated as a percentage of the value of gross production. The royalties that Greenfire may pay on production from lands other than Crown lands are determined by negotiation between the mineral freehold owner and Greenfire, although production from such lands is subject to certain provincial taxes and royalties.

Greenfire’s Hangingstone Facilities are subject to the Alberta oil sands royalty framework. Prior to the payout of an oil sands project, the royalty is calculated based on the gross revenues of the project. The gross revenue royalty rates vary between 1% and 9%, depending on the market price of crude oil. These rates are determined by the average monthly price of Western Texas Intermediate crude oil at Cushing, Oklahoma, expressed in Canadian dollars. When the market price of crude oil is less than or equal to $55 per barrel, the royalty rate is 1%. However, for every dollar increase in the market price of crude oil above $55, the royalty rate increases up to a maximum of 9%. After the payout of an oil sands project, the royalty payable is determined by comparing the gross revenue royalty and the net revenue royalty. The gross revenue royalty is calculated based on the gross revenue royalty rate of 1% to 9%, while the net revenue royalty is calculated based on the net revenue royalty rate, which starts at 25% and increases for every dollar increase in the market price of crude oil above $55, up to a maximum of 40% when the crude oil price is $120 or higher. The Expansion Asset is currently assessed as pre-payout and the Demo Asset is post payout under the Alberta oil sands royalty framework. At the Demo Asset, recent capital expenditures have resulted in total project costs being greater than total revenues, which has enabled the site to receive lower pre-payout royalty rates, despite the oil sands project being at post payout status.

Incentives

The Government of Alberta has from time-to-time implemented drilling credits, incentives or transitional royalty programs to encourage crude oil and natural gas development and new drilling. In addition, the Government of Alberta has implemented certain initiatives intended to accelerate technological development and facilitate the development of unconventional resources, including coalbed methane wells, shale gas wells and horizontal crude oil and natural gas wells.

Regulatory Authorities and Environmental Regulation

General

The Canadian oil and gas industry is subject to environmental regulation under a variety of Canadian federal, provincial, territorial, and municipal laws and regulations, all of which are subject to governmental review and revision from time-to-time. Such regulations provide for, among other things, restrictions and prohibitions on release or emission of various substances produced in association with certain oil and gas industry operations, such as sulphur dioxide and nitrous oxide. The regulatory regimes set out the requirements with respect to oilfield waste handling and storage, habitat protection and the satisfactory operation, maintenance, abandonment and reclamation of well, facility and pipeline sites. Compliance with such regulations can require significant expenditures and a breach of such requirements may result in suspension or revocation of necessary licenses and authorizations, civil liabiltiy or the imposition of material fines and penalties. In addition, potential future changes to environmental regulations, including greenhouse gas (GHG) management policy, may result in additional requirements on the oil and gas industry.

Federal

Canadian environmental regulation is the responsibility of both the federal and provincial governments. While provincial governments and their delegates are responsible for most environmental regulation, the federal government can regulate environmental matters where they impact matters of federal jurisdiction or when they arise from projects that are subject to federal jurisdiction, such as interprovincial transportation undertakings, including pipelines and railways, and activities carried out on federal lands. Where there is a direct conflict between federal and provincial environmental legislation in relation to the same matter, the federal law prevails.

The CERA provides a number of important elements to the regulation of federally regulated major projects and their associated environmental assessments. The CERA separates the CER’s administrative and adjudicative functions. The CER has jurisdiction over matters such as the environmental and economic regulation of pipelines, transmission infrastructure and certain offshore renewable energy projects. In its adjudicative role, the CERA tasks the CER with reviewing applications for the development, construction and operation of many of these projects, culminating in their eventual abandonment.

The Impact Assessment Act (the “IAA”) sets out the scheme for federal environmental assessments in Canada. In 2023, after various court challenges, the Supreme Court of Canada found that certain aspects of the IAA were unconstitutional largely on the basis that they represented federal overreach into provincial affairs. The federal government amended the IAA via the Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1, which received royal assent on June 20, 2024. The amendments, among other things, limit the range of project effects that could require an assessment under the IAA. On November 20, 2024, the Province of Alberta filed a reference application with the Alberta Court of Appeal asking again whether the amended IAA is constitutional.

In June 2025, the federal government enacted the Building Canada Act which is intended to accelerate regulatory approvals for projects that the government deems to be in the national interest. In late 2025, the federal government identified multiple energy projects for potential designation as projects in the national interest.

Alberta

The AER is the principal regulator responsible for all energy resource development in Alberta. It derives its authority from the Responsible Energy Development Act and a number of related statutes including the Oil and Gas Conservation Act, Oil Sands Conservation Act, Pipeline Act, and EnvironmentalProtection and Enhancement Act. The AER is responsible for ensuring the safe, efficient, orderly and environmentally responsible development of Hydrocarbon and mineral resources, including allocating and conserving water resources, managing public lands, and protecting the environment. The AER’s responsibilities exclude the functions of the Alberta Utilities Commission and the Land and Property Rights Tribunal, as well as the Alberta Ministry of Energy and Minerals’ responsibility for mineral tenure.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 33
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Government of Alberta relies on regional planning to accomplish its resource development goals. Its approach to natural resource management provides for engagement and consultation with stakeholders and the public and examines the cumulative impacts of development on the environment and communities. While the AER is the primary regulator for energy development, several other governmental departments and agencies may be involved in land use issues, including the Alberta Ministry of Environment and Protected Areas, the Alberta Ministry of Energy and Minerals, the Aboriginal Consultation Office and the Land Use Secretariat.

The Government of Alberta’s land-use policy sets out an approach to managing public and private land use and natural resource development in a manner that is consistent with the long-term economic, environmental and social goals of the province. It calls for the development of seven region-specific land use plans in order to manage the combined impacts of existing and future land use within a specific region and the incorporation of a cumulative effects management approach into such plans.

Liability Management

Alberta has implemented a liability management program with respect to most conventional upstream oil and gas wells, facilities and pipelines designed to prevent or minimize the occurrence of orphaned wells and facilities and to manage the financial risk of its orphan well fund. These programs can require a licensee to provide a security deposit, including when deemed liabilities exceed deemed assets within Alberta. Alberta has made its liability management programs more stringent in recent years, shifting to a licensee capability assessment that considers, among other things, the general financial health of the licensee, the remaining lifespan of a licensee’s mineral resources and infrastructure, and the rate at which the licensee has abandoned, remediated, and reclaimed their inactive oil and gas sites.

In Alberta, the shift from the Liability Management Rating Program (the “AB LMR Program”) to the Liability Management Framework is being implemented in phases, and started with the release of Directive 088: Licensee Life-Cycle Management in December 2021 (“Directive 088”), followed by the release of Manual 023: Licensee Life Cycle Management in May 2022. Directive 088 has been and will continue to be subject to periodic updates at the discretion of the AER, the most recent of which was in August 2025. Directive 088 institutes a holistic assessment regime with several different regulatory tools not limited to the use of security deposits as has historically been the case. This holistic regime currently applies to licence transfers. This holistic regime also implements the Inventory Reduction Program, which became effective on January 1, 2022. Under that program, all licensees that have liability associated with inactive infrastructure are required to spend a specified amount each year on reclamation activities or post equivalent security with the AER. In February 2025, the AER announced amendments to the Oil and Gas Conservation Rules, Pipeline Rules and various AER Directives to formally eliminate the AB LMR Program and Licensee Liability Rating.

The capability assessment model generally results in licensees being held to a higher standard when accepting the transfer of licenses from a third party, which has resulted in limiting the number of parties who can reasonably acquire assets. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Climate Change and RelatedRegulation— The Company may have to pay certain costs associated with abandonment and reclamation in excess of amounts currentlyestimated in its consolidated financial statements” in this Annual Information Form.

Climate Change Regulation

Climate change regulation at each of the international, federal and provincial levels has the potential to significantly affect the future of the oil and gas industry in Canada. These impacts are uncertain, and it is not possible to predict what future policies, laws and regulations will entail. Any new laws and regulations (or additional requirements to existing laws and regulations) could have a material impact on the Company’s operations and cash flow.

Federal

Canada has been a signatory to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (the “UNFCCC”) since 1992. Since its inception, the UNFCCC has instigated numerous policy changes with respect to climate governance. On April 22, 2016, 197 countries, including Canada, signed the Paris Agreement, committing to prevent global temperatures from rising more than 2° Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit this rise to no more than 1.5° Celsius. To date, 189 of the 197 parties to the UNFCCC have ratified the Paris Agreement, including Canada. In 2016, Canada committed to reducing its emissions by 30% below 2005 levels by 2030. In 2021, Canada updated its original commitment by pledging to reduce emissions by 40 – 45% below 2005 levels by 2030, and to net-zero by 2050.

During the course of the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference, Canada pledged to: (i) reduce methane emissions in the oil and gas sector to 75% of 2012 levels by 2030; (ii) cease to export thermal coal by 2030; (iii) impose a cap on emissions from the oil and gas sector; (iv) halt direct public funding to the global fossil fuel sector by the end of 2022; and (v) commit that all new vehicles sold in the country will be zero-emission on or before 2040. During the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference, which concluded on December 12, 2023, Canada signed an agreement with nearly 200 other parties, which includes renewed commitments to transitioning away from fossil fuels and further cutting GHG emissions.

The Government of Canada released the Pan-Canadian Framework on Clean Growth and Climate Change in 2016, setting out a plan to meet the federal government’s 2030 emissions reduction targets. On June 21, 2018, the federal government enacted the Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act (the “GGPPA”), which came into force on January 1, 2019. The regime initially had two parts: an output-based pricing system (“OBPS”) for large industry (enabled by the Output-Based Pricing System Regulations) and a fuel charge (enabled by the Fuel Charge Regulations), both of which impose a price on CO2e emissions. On June 5, 2025, the federal government introduced Bill C-4 to repeal the fuel charge portion of the GGPPA pertaining to the consumer-facing carbon price, which was reduced to $0 per tonne on April 1, 2025.

This OBPS applies in provinces and territories that request it and in those that do not have their own equivalent emissions pricing systems in place that meet the federal standards and ensure that there is a uniform price on emissions across the country. The benchmark price per tonne of CO2e increases by $15 per year until it reaches $170/tonne of CO2e in 2030. In 2026, the minimum price permissible under the GGPPA will increase to $100/tonne of CO2e. On November 4, 2025, the federal government announced that it will take steps to strengthen the OBPS, including the development of a long term price trajectory past 2030 and the imposition of a federal backstop where provincial systems fall short of the federal equivalency benchmark.

While several provinces challenged the constitutionality of the GGPPA following its enactment, the Supreme Court of Canada confirmed its constitutional validity in a judgment released on March 25, 2021.

The federal government has also enacted the Multi-SectorAir Pollutants Regulation under the authority of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999, which regulates certain industrial facilities and equipment types, including boilers and heaters used in the upstream oil and gas industry, to limit the emission of air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide.

On June 29, 2021, the Canadian Net-Zero EmissionsAccountability Act (“CNEAA”) received royal assent. The CNEAA legislates the federal government’s commitment to achieving net-zero GHG emissions by 2050, with a shorter-term target of a 40-50 percent GHG emissions reduction by 2030.

It establishes rolling five-year emissions-reduction targets and requires the government to develop plans to reach each target and support these efforts by creating a Net-Zero Advisory Body. The CNEAA also requires the federal government to publish an Emissions Reduction Plan and annual reports that describe how departments and crown corporations are considering the financial risks and opportunities of climate change in their decision-making. A comprehensive review of the CNEAA is required every five years from the date the CNEAA came into force.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Government of Canada introduced its 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan (the “2030 ERP”) on March 29, 2022. In the 2030 ERP, the Government of Canada proposes a roadmap for Canada to reduce its GHG emissions to 40-45% below 2005 levels by 2030. As the first emissions reduction plan issued under the CNEAA, the 2030 ERP aims to reduce emissions by incentivizing electric vehicles and renewable electricity, and capping emissions from the oil and gas sector, among other measures. On December 7, 2023, the federal government released the “2023 Progress Report on the 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan,” and mentioned that Canada’s ability to meet its long-term climate goals depends on key regulatory initiatives, such as an oil and gas emissions cap and methane reduction requirements.

The Regulations Respecting Reduction in theRelease of Methane and Certain Volatile Organic Compounds (Upstream Oil and Gas Sector) came into force on January 1, 2020 (“MethaneRegulations”). The Methane Regulations are intended to achieve a 40 percent to 45 percent reduction in methane levels from 2012 levels by 2025. The Methane Regulations originally included requirements for reducing fugitive equipment leaks and venting from well completion and compressors and have since expanded to include restrictions on facility production and pneumatic equipment venting. On December 16, 2023, the federal government released draft amendments to the Methane Regulations which include further reduction targets, a mandatory third-party annual inspection and a performance-based compliance option. The amendments are schedule to take effect in 2027 and apply across the oil and gas sector by 2030.

On June 8, 2022, the Canadian Greenhouse GasOffset Credit System Regulations were published in the Canada Gazette. The regulations established a regulatory framework to allow certain kinds of projects to generate and sell offset credits for use in the federal OBPS through Canada’s Greenhouse Gas Offset Credit System. The system enables project proponents to generate federal offset credits through projects that reduce GHG emissions under a published federal GHG offset protocol. Offset credits can then be sold to those seeking to meet limits imposed under the OBPS or those seeking to meet voluntary targets.

On June 20, 2022, the Clean Fuel Regulations came into force and in July 2023 they took effect. The Clean Fuel Regulations aim to discourage the use of fossil fuels by increasing the price of those fuels when compared to lower-carbon alternatives, imposing obligations on primary suppliers of transportation fuels in Canada, and requiring fuels to contain a minimum percentage of renewable fuel content and meet emissions caps calculated over the life cycle of the fuel. The Clean Fuel Regulations also established a market for compliance credits. Compliance credits can be generated by primary suppliers, among others, through carbon capture and storage (“CCUS”), producing or importing low-emission fuel, or through end-use fuel switching (for example, operating an electric vehicle charging network).

Additionally, on December 7, 2023, the Minister of Environment and Climate Change and the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, introduced Canada’s draft cap-and-trade framework to limit emissions from the oil and gas sector. On November 4, 2024, the federal government published its proposed regulations which will implement a cap on GHG emissions from the upstream oil and gas sector and the LNG sector. The proposed regulations proposes capping 2030 emissions at 35 percent below 2019 levels between 2030 and 2032. The proposed regulations introduce a cap-and-trade system that covers specific activities, such as onshore and offshore oil and gas production, oil sands extraction and upgrading, natural gas production and processing, and LNG production. GHG emissions from certain activities will be capped while GHG emissions from other activities will be prohibited unless the operator registers in accordance with the regulations. The federal government completed public consultations on the draft regulations and initially indicated that it expected to publish the final regulations in 2025. However, on November 4, 2025, the federal government announced that, under its new Climate Competitiveness Strategy, a GHG emissions cap may no longer be necessary. In addition, pursuant to the Canada/Alberta MOU, the federal government stated that it will not implement an oil and gas emission cap in light of the mutual commitments set out in that agreement.

On September 27, 2023, the federal government released Canada’s Carbon Management Strategy, which articulates how carbon management, such as CCUS, will contribute to Canada’s net-zero goals. The strategy provides the following priority areas for the Government of Canada regarding carbon management: accelerating innovation and research, development and demonstration; advancing predictable policies and regulations, including Canada’s economy-wide carbon pricing system; attracting investment and trade opportunities; scaling up projects and infrastructure to meet the evolving capacity needs of the carbon management sector; and building partnerships and growing inclusive workforces. The federal government has also introduced the Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) Investment Tax Credit, which is a tax credit that applies to eligible expenditures incurred for qualified CCUS projects.

As noted above, in 2025, the federal government introduced Canada’s Climate Competitiveness Strategy – a new climate change strategy. While specific legislative changes have not yet been announced, the new strategy will likely have impacts on the climate change related legislation and regulations mentioned above.

Alberta

In December 2016, the Oil Sands Emissions LimitAct came into force, establishing an annual 100 megatonne limit for GHG emissions from all oil sands sites, but the regulations necessary to enforce the limit have not yet been developed. The delay in drafting these regulations has been inconsequential thus far, as Alberta’s oil sands emit roughly 81 megatonnes of GHG emissions per year, well below the 100 megatonne limit.

In December 2019, the federal government approved Alberta’s Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction Regulation (“TIER”), which applies to large emitters. The TIER regulation came into effect on January 1, 2020 (as amended January 1, 2023) and replaced the previous Carbon CompetitivenessIncentives Regulation. In May 2025, the government of Alberta announced that it would pause its industrial carbon price under TIER at $95 per tonne, rather than increasing it to $110 per tonne in 2026 in line with the federal OBPS. However, under the Canada/Alberta MOU, the federal government committed to working with Alberta to develop a new industrial carbon pricing agreement by April 1, 2026, which is anticipated to increase the stringency of the TIER regime to better align with the federal OBPS.

The TIER regulation applies to emitters that emit more than 100,000 tonnes of CO2e per year in 2016 or any subsequent year. The initial target for most TIER-regulated facilities is to reduce emissions intensity by 10% as measured against that facility’s individual benchmark, with a further 2% reduction in each subsequent year. The annual reduction rate applied to oil sands mining, in-situ and upgrading is 4% in 2029 and 2030. The facility-specific benchmark does not apply to all facilities, such as those in the electricity sector, which are compared against the good-as-best-gas standard. Similarly, for facilities that have already made substantial headway in reducing their emissions, a different “high-performance” benchmark is available. Under the TIER, certain facilities in high-emitting or trade exposed sectors can opt-in to the program in specified circumstances if they do not meet the 100,000 tonne threshold. To encourage compliance with the emissions intensity reduction targets, TIER-regulated facilities must provide annual compliance reports. Facilities that are unable to achieve their targets may either purchase credits from other facilities, purchase carbon offsets, or pay a levy to the Government of Alberta. On September 16, 2025, the government of Alberta announced that the TIER will be amended to recognize on-site emissions reductions investments as a way for entities to meet their compliance obligations, thereby introducing a new compliance method.

The Government of Alberta enacted the Methane Emission Reduction Regulation on January 1, 2020, and in November 2020, the Government of Canada and the Government of Alberta announced an equivalency agreement regarding the reduction of methane emissions such that the federal Methane Regulations will not apply in Alberta. Prior to the October 26, 2025 expiry of the original equivalency agreement, the federal and Alberta governments entered into a new equivalency agreement, which will remain in effect until 2030. However, under the Canada/Alberta MOU, the parties agreed to enter into a new long term methane equivalency agreement on or before April 1, 2026, with a 2035 target date and a 75% reduction target relative to 2014 emissions levels.

Risks Related to the Company’s Operations and the Oil and Gas Industry

The prices of crude oil, diluted bitumen, non-diluted bitumen and the differentials among various crude oil prices, natural gas and power are volatile and outside of the Company’s control and affect its revenues, profitability, cash flows and future rate of growth.

The Company’s revenues, profitability, cash flows and future rate of growth are highly dependent on commodity prices, including with respect to crude oil, diluted bitumen, non-diluted bitumen and the differentials among various crude oil prices, natural gas and power. Commodity prices may fluctuate widely in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of, and demand for, crude oil, diluted bitumen and non-diluted bitumen, natural gas, power, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond the Company’s control, such as:

domestic and global supply of, and demand for,<br>crude oil, diluted bitumen, non-diluted bitumen and natural gas, as impacted by economic factors that affect gross domestic product growth<br>rates of countries around the world, including impacts from international trade and tariffs, pandemics and related concerns;
market expectations with respect to the future<br>supply of, and demand for, crude oil, NGLs and natural gas and price changes;
--- ---
global crude oil, diluted bitumen, non-diluted<br>bitumen and natural gas inventory levels;
--- ---
volatility and trading patterns in the commodity-futures<br>markets;
--- ---
the proximity, capacity, cost and availability<br>of pipelines and other transportation facilities;
--- ---
the capacity of refiners to utilize available<br>supplies of crude oil and condensate;
--- ---
weather conditions affecting supply and demand;
--- ---
overall domestic and global political and economic<br>conditions, including the continued impact of certain geopolitical conflicts, such as the ongoing war in Eastern Europe and the conflicts<br>in the Middle East;
--- ---
actions of OPEC, its members and other state-controlled<br>oil companies relating to oil price and production controls, including the potential revival of the Venezuelan oil market and its impact<br>on demand for Canadian crude in the U.S. Gulf Coast and globally;
--- ---
fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar<br>relative to the Canadian dollar;
--- ---
the price and quantity of crude oil, diluent<br>and LNG imports to and exports from the U.S. and other countries;
--- ---
the development of new Hydrocarbon exploration,<br>production and transportation methods or technological advancements in existing methods, including hydraulic fracturing and SAGD;
--- ---
capital investments by oil and gas companies<br>relating to the exploration, development and production of Hydrocarbons;
--- ---
social attitudes or policies affecting energy<br>consumption and energy supply;
--- ---
domestic and foreign governmental regulations,<br>including environmental regulations, climate change regulations and applicable tax regulations;
--- ---
shareholder activism or activities by organizations<br>to limit certain sources of capital for the energy sector or restrict the exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural<br>gas; and
--- ---
the effect of energy conservation efforts and<br>the price, availability and acceptance of alternative energies, including renewable energy.
--- ---

The Company makes price assumptions regarding commodity prices that are used for planning purposes, and a significant portion of its cash outlays, including capital, operating and transportation commitments, are largely fixed in nature. Accordingly, if commodity prices are below the expectations on which these commitments were based, the Company’s financial results are likely to be adversely affected because these cash outlays are not variable in the short term and cannot be quickly reduced to respond to unanticipated decreases in commodity prices. The Company’s risk management arrangements will not fully mitigate the effects of unexpected price fluctuations.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 38
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Significant or extended price declines could also materially and adversely affect the amount of diluted and non-diluted bitumen that the Company can economically produce, require the Company to make significant downward adjustments to its reserves estimates or result in the deferral or cancellation of the Company’s growth projects. A reduction in production could also result in a shortfall in expected cash flows and require the Company to reduce capital spending or borrow funds or access the capital markets to cover any such shortfall. Any of these factors could negatively affect the Company’s ability to replace its production and its future rate of growth.

The Company’s financial condition is substantially dependent on, and highly sensitive to, the prevailing prices of crude oil and the differentials among various crude oil prices and natural gas. Low prices for crude oil produced by the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, financial condition and the value and amount of the Company’s reserves.

The Company’s financial performance also depends on revenues from the sale of commodities which differ in quality and location from underlying commodity prices quoted on financial exchanges. The market prices for heavy oil (which includes bitumen blends) are lower than the established market prices for light and medium grades of oil, principally due to the cost of diluent and the higher transportation and refining costs associated with heavy oil. In addition, there is limited pipeline egress capacity for Canadian crude oil to access the American refinery complex or tidewater to access world markets, relative to production rates in Western Canada, and the availability of additional transport capacity via rail is more expensive and variable; therefore, the price for Canadian crude oil is very sensitive to pipeline and refinery outages, which contributes to this volatility. The market for heavy oil is also more limited than for light and medium grades of oil making it further susceptible to supply and demand fluctuations. These factors all contribute to price differentials. Future price differentials are uncertain and any widening in heavy oil differentials specifically could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

Decreases to or prolonged periods of low commodity prices, particularly for oil, may negatively impact the Company’s ability to meet guidance targets, maintain our business and meet all of the Company’s financial obligations as they come due and could reduce the Company’s carrying value of its reserves and borrowing capacity. It could also result in the shut-in of currently producing wells without an equivalent decrease in expenses due to fixed costs, a delay or cancellation of existing or future drilling, development or construction programs, unutilized long-term transportation commitments and a reduction in the value and amount of the Company’s reserves.

The Company conducts assessments of the carrying value of the Company’s assets in accordance with IFRS. If crude oil and natural gas forecast prices decline, the carrying value of the Company’s assets could be subject to downward revisions and the Company’s net earnings could be adversely affected.

Risks associated with SAGD operations could adversely affect the Company’s operating results.

The Company’s operating results and the value of its reserves and resources depend, in part, on the price received for diluted bitumen and non-diluted bitumen, as well as the operating costs of the Demo Asset and the Expansion Asset, all of which may significantly vary from the prices and costs that the Company currently anticipates. If such operating costs increase, or if the Company does not achieve its expected production volumes or revenue, the Company’s earnings and cash flow will be reduced, and its business and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. In addition to the other factors and variables discussed herein, principal factors which could adversely affect the Company’s operating results or financial condition include (without limitation):

increases in the price applied to carbon emissions;
lower than expected reservoir performance, including,<br>but not limited to, lower oil production rates and/or higher steam oil ratio;
--- ---
the reliability and maintenance of the Company’s<br>facilities, including turnaround activities;
--- ---
the safety and reliability of pipelines, tankage,<br>trucks, railways and railcars and barges that transport the Company’s products;
--- ---

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)
the need to replace significant portions of existing<br>wells, referred to as “workovers”, or the need to drill additional wells;
the cost to transport bitumen, diluent and bitumen<br>blend, and the cost to dispose of certain by-products;
--- ---
changes in operations or operation practices,<br>including to address well pressure conditions and / or otherwise optimize operations;
--- ---
reliance on the Petroleum Marketer as our sole<br>third-party commodity marketer to market bitumen blend sales, procure diluent supply and perform logistics management for the Demo Asset<br>and Expansion Asset;
--- ---
reliance on the Petroleum Marketer as our sole<br>third-party commodity marketer for timely payment of bitumen blend marketed on behalf of the Company;
--- ---
inability to retain our existing suppliers;
--- ---
labor disputes or disruptions, declines in labor<br>productivity or the unavailability of, or increased cost of, skilled labor;

the availability of water supplies;
--- ---
effects of inclement and severe weather events,<br>including fire, drought and flooding;
--- ---
inability to comply with applicable regulations,<br>permits and authorizations, including relating to the Company’s emissions and water handling, and any associated orders from regulatory<br>authorities, including the AER, aimed at remedying any such non-compliance;
--- ---
the ability to comply with existing approvals,<br>or obtain and comply with further approvals and permits for future potential projects;
--- ---
engineering and/or procurement performance falling<br>below expected levels of output or efficiency;

refining markets for the Company’s bitumen<br>blend; and
--- ---
the cost of chemicals used in the Company’s<br>operations, including, but not limited to, in connection with water and/or oil treatment facilities.
--- ---

The Company relies on approved authorizations and limits in relation to its air emissions as part of its operations.

The Company relies on various approvals and authorizations relating to sulphur dioxide, GHG and other air emissions produced as part of its operations. Such authorizations may be reviewed, withdrawn, rescinded or additional conditions may be added to these authorizations. Further, if the Company is not in compliance with any such authorizations, the AER or any other applicable regulator may levy penalties and / or other orders, such as to shut in production, any of which could be significant and / or have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operations, reserves estimates, financial condition and prospects. In early 2025, the Company reported a potential exceedance in its sulphur dioxide emissions to the AER. See “General Development of the Business – Recent Developments – 2025 – Reporting of Sulphur Dioxide Exceedances” in this Annual Information Form.

The recovery of bitumen using SAGD processes is subject to uncertainty.

Current SAGD technologies for in situ extraction of bitumen or for reservoir injection require significant consumption of natural gas or other inputs to produce steam for use in the recovery process. There can be no assurance that the Company’s operations will produce bitumen at the expected levels or on schedule. The quality and performance of a bitumen reservoir can also impact the steam oil ratio and the timing and levels of production. In addition, the geological characteristics and integrity of bitumen reservoirs are inherently uncertain. The injection of steam into reservoirs under significant pressure may cause fluid containment issues and unforeseen damage to reservoirs, resulting in large steam losses in parts of the reservoir where caprock is compromised. Should these adverse reservoir conditions occur, they would have a negative impact on the Company’s ability to recover bitumen.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company’s future performance may be affected by the financial, operational, environmental and safety risks associated with the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas.

The long-term commercial success of the Company depends on its ability to find, acquire, develop and commercially produce oil reserves. Without the continual addition of new reserves, the Company’s existing reserves, and the production from them, will decline over time as the Company produces from such reserves. A future increase in the Company’s reserves will depend on both the ability of the Company to explore and develop its existing properties and its ability to select and acquire suitable producing properties or prospects. The Company may not be able to continue to find satisfactory properties to acquire or participate in. Moreover, management of the Company may determine that current markets, terms of acquisitions, participation or pricing conditions make potential acquisitions or participation uneconomic. The Company may not discover or acquire further commercial quantities of oil and natural gas.

Future oil and natural gas exploration may involve unprofitable efforts from dry wells or wells that are productive but do not produce sufficient petroleum substances to return a profit after drilling, completing, operating and other costs. The completion of a well does not ensure a profit on the investment or recovery of drilling, completion and operating costs.

Drilling hazards, environmental damage and various field operating conditions could greatly increase the cost of operations and adversely affect the production from successful wells. Field operating conditions include, but are not limited to, delays in obtaining governmental approvals or consents and/or failure to comply with any such approvals and consents, shut-ins of wells (including resulting from regulatory non-compliance or extreme weather conditions), insufficient storage or transportation capacity or geological and mechanical conditions. It is difficult to eliminate production delays and declines from normal field operating conditions, which can negatively affect revenue and cash flow levels to varying degrees.

Oil and natural gas exploration, development and production operations are subject to all the risks and hazards typically associated with such operations, including blowouts, craterings, explosions, uncontrollable flows of natural gas, NGLs or well fluids, fires, pipe, casing or cement failures, abnormal pressure, pipeline leaks, ruptures or spills, vandalism, pollution, releases of toxic gases, adverse weather conditions or natural disasters and other environmental hazards and risks. These typical risks and hazards could result in substantial damage to oil and natural gas wells, production facilities, other property and the environment and cause personal injury or threaten wildlife, all of which could result in liability to the Company.

Oil and natural gas production operations are also subject to geological and seismic risks, including encountering unexpected formations, pressures, reservoir thief zones such as bottom water and top gas and/or water, caprock integrity, premature decline of reservoirs and the invasion of water into producing formations. Losses resulting from the occurrence of any of these risks may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Shortages and volatility of pricing on commodity inputs could negatively impact the Company’s operating results.

The nature of the Company’s operations results in exposure to fluctuations in diluent, natural gas and electricity prices. Natural gas is a significant component of the Company’s cost structure, as it is used to generate steam for the SAGD process. Diluent, such as condensate, is also one of the Company’s significant commodity inputs and is used to decrease the viscosity of bitumen to allow it to be transported. Electricity is required to power facilities and wells. Historically, the markets for bitumen, diluent, natural gas and electricity have been volatile, and they are likely to continue to be volatile. Shortages of, and increased costs for, these inputs could increase the Company’s marketing and operating costs.

Reserves Estimates

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved and probable reserves and future net revenues to be derived therefrom, including many factors beyond Greenfire’s control. The reserves and future net cash flow summarized herein have been independently evaluated by McDaniel. These evaluations include a number of factors and assumptions made as of the date on which the evaluation is made such as geological and engineering estimates which have inherent uncertainties, the effects of regulation by governmental agencies, initial production rates, production decline rates, ultimate recovery of reserves timing and amount of capital expenditures, marketability of production, current and forecast prices of crude oil, Greenfire’s ability to transport its product to various markets, operating costs, abandonment and salvage values and royalties and other government levies that may be imposed over the producing life of the reserves. Many of these assumptions are subject to change and may not, over time, prove to be accurate. Furthermore, different reserves engineers may make different estimates of reserves based on the same data. Greenfire’s actual production, revenues, taxes, and development and operating expenditures with respect to its reserves will vary from estimates and such variations could be material.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 41
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Estimates with respect to reserves that may be developed and produced in the future are often based upon volumetric calculations, probabilistic and deterministic methods and analogy to similar types of reserves, rather than upon actual production history. Estimates based on these methods generally are less reliable than those based on actual production history. Subsequent evaluation of the same reserves based on production history will result in variations, which may be material, from current estimated reserves.

Reserves estimates may require revision based on actual production experience. Such figures have been determined based on assumed commodity prices and operating costs. Market price fluctuations of bitumen, diluent and natural gas may impact the recovery of certain grades of bitumen. The present value of Greenfire’s estimated future net revenue disclosed herein and in the McDaniel Report should not be construed as the fair market value of Greenfire’s reserves.

There is uncertainty associated with non-producing or undeveloped reserves.

The Company’s reserves may not ultimately be developed or produced in their entirety, either because it may not be commercially viable to do so or for other reasons. Furthermore, not all of the Company’s undeveloped or developed non-producing reserves may be ultimately produced on the Company’s projected timelines, at the costs the Company has budgeted, or at all. A shortfall in production below could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The Company may require additional financing, from time to time, to fund the acquisition, exploration and development of properties, and its ability to obtain such financing in a timely fashion and on acceptable terms may be negatively impacted by the current economic and global market volatility.

The Company’s cash flow from operations may not be sufficient to fund its ongoing activities at all times and, from time to time, the Company may require additional financing in order to carry out its acquisition, exploration and development activities. Failure to obtain financing on a timely basis could cause the Company to forfeit its interest in certain properties, miss certain acquisition opportunities and reduce its operations. Due to the conditions in the oil and natural gas industry and/or global economic and political volatility, the Company may, from time to time, have restricted access to capital and increased borrowing costs. The current conditions in the oil and natural gas industry have negatively impacted the ability of oil and natural gas companies to access, or the cost of, additional financing.

As a result of global economic and political conditions and the domestic lending landscape, the Company may, from time to time, have restricted access to capital and increased borrowing costs. If the Company’s cash flow from operations decreases as a result of lower commodity prices or otherwise, it will affect the Company’s ability to expend the necessary capital to replace its reserves or to maintain its production. To the extent that external sources of capital become limited, unavailable or available on onerous terms, the Company’s ability to make capital investments and maintain existing assets may be impaired, and its assets, liabilities, business, financial condition and results of operations may be affected materially and adversely. In addition, the future development of the Company’s properties may require additional financing, and such financing may not be available or, if available, may not be available upon acceptable terms. Alternatively, any available financing may be highly dilutive to existing securityholders. Failure to obtain any financing necessary for the Company’s capital expenditure plans may result in a delay in development or production on the Company’s properties.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 42
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The anticipated benefits of acquisitions may not be achieved, and the Company may dispose of non-core assets for less than their carrying value on the financial statements as a result of weak market conditions.

The Company evaluates and, where appropriate, pursues acquisitions of additional mineral leases or oil and gas assets in the ordinary course of business. Acquisitions of mineral leases, as well as the exploration and development of land subject to such leases, may require substantial capital or the incurrence of substantial additional indebtedness. Furthermore, the acquisition of any additional mineral leases may not ultimately increase the Company’s reserves or result in any additional production of bitumen. If the Company consummates any future acquisitions of mineral leases, it may need to change its anticipated capital expenditure programs and the use of the Company’s capital resources. Management continually assesses the value and contribution of services provided by third parties and the resources required to provide such services. In this regard, non-core assets may be periodically disposed of so the Company can focus its efforts and resources more efficiently. Depending on the market conditions for such non-core assets, certain non-core assets of the Company may realize less on disposition than their carrying value on the financial statements of the Company.

Global political events may adversely affect commodity prices, which in turn affect the Company’s cash flow.

Political events throughout the world that cause disruptions in the supply of oil continuously affect the marketability and price of oil and natural gas acquired or discovered by the Company. Conflicts, or conversely peaceful developments, arising outside of Canada, including changes in political regimes or the parties in power, have a significant impact on the price of oil and natural gas. Any particular event could result in a material decline in prices and result in a reduction of the Company’s net production revenue.

The successful operation of a portion of the Company’s properties is dependent on third parties.

The Company’s projects will depend on the availability and successful operation of certain infrastructure, equipment and services owned, operated or provided by third parties or joint ventures with third parties, including (without limitation):

pipelines for the transport of natural gas, diluent<br>and diluted bitumen;
refinery operators;
--- ---
power transmission grids supplying and exporting<br>electricity;
--- ---
other third-party transportation infrastructure<br>such as roads, rail, airstrips, terminals and vessels; and
--- ---
equipment and services including drilling rigs,<br>geological and geophysical services, engineering and construction services, major equipment items for infrastructure projects and construction<br>materials generally.
--- ---

The unavailability or decreased capacity of any or all of the infrastructure, equipment or services described above could negatively impact the operation of the Company’s projects and its ability to undertake exploration, development and construction projects, which, in turn, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and prospects. A failure to secure the services and equipment necessary for the Company’s operations for the expected price, on the expected timeline, or at all, may also have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial performance and cash flows.

In addition, if any of the Company’s various counterparties experience financial difficulty, it could impact their ability to fund and pursue capital expenditures, carry out their operations in a safe and effective manner and satisfy regulatory requirements with respect to abandonment and reclamation obligations. If such companies fail to satisfy regulatory requirements with respect to abandonment and reclamation obligations, the Company may be required to satisfy such obligations and seek reimbursement from such companies. To the extent that any of such companies go bankrupt, become insolvent or make a proposal or institute any proceedings relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, it could result in such assets being shut-in, the Company potentially becoming subject to additional liabilities relating to such assets and the Company having difficulty collecting revenue due from such operators or recovering amounts owing to the Company from such operators for their share of abandonment and reclamation obligations. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial and operational results.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 43
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Firm transportation and storage agreements require the Company to pay demand charges for firm transportation and storage capacities that it does not use.

The Company pays fixed charges for storage and transportation of operating inputs such as natural gas, diluent and electricity, regardless of whether bitumen and blend are being produced. If the Company fails to use its firm transportation and storage capacities due to production shortfalls or otherwise, margins, results of operations and financial performance could be adversely affected.

The Company is heavily reliant on the Petroleum Marketer as its sole third-party commodity marketer and a failure of the Petroleum Marketer to fulfill its obligations to the Company could have a significant negative impact on the Company’s operations, costs and cashflow.

The Company has contracted with the Petroleum Marketer as its sole third-party petroleum marketer and as a result faces concentrated counterparty risk if the Petroleum Marketer cannot, or refuses to, fulfill its contractual obligations. The Petroleum Marketer markets all of the Company’s product to buyers and thus is the sole source of all of the Company’s revenue. The Petroleum Marketer also sources and pays for diluent for the Company’s operations, provides security for key pipeline assignments, schedules and executes delivery of blend and diluent by pipeline and is responsible for transport of the Company’s bitumen when product is transported by truck. A failure of the Petroleum Marketer to provide any of those contracted services, in a safe and reliable manner or at all, could have a significant negative impact on the Company’s operations, costs and cashflow.

The Company may be unable to retain existing suppliers.

The Company may be unable to retain existing suppliers, contractors or employees, unless it provides letters of credit or other financial assurances, the quantum of which may eventually prove to be higher than the Company’s current estimates. The Company may have restricted access to capital and increased borrowing costs. Failure to obtain financing on a timely basis could impair the Company’s ability to retain such suppliers, contractors or employees, which could have a material adverse effect on its operations.

The Company relies on groundwater licenses, which, if rescinded or the conditions of which are amended, could disrupt its business and have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The Company relies on access to groundwater, which is obtained under government licenses, to provide the substantial quantities of water required for certain of its operations. The licenses to withdraw water may be rescinded or additional conditions may be added to these licenses. Further, the Company may have to pay increased fees for the use of water in the future, and any such fees may be uneconomic. Finally, new projects or the expansion of existing projects may be dependent on securing licenses for additional water withdrawal, and these licenses may be granted on terms not favorable to the Company, or at all, and such additional water may not be available to divert under such licenses. Any prolonged droughts in the Fort McMurray area could result in the Company’s groundwater licenses being subject to additional conditions or rescission. The Company’s inability to secure groundwater licenses in the future and any amendment to or rescission of, its current licenses may disrupt its business and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The Company may not be able to obtain or comply with the regulatory approvals it needs for general operating activities or compliance for decommissioning.

The construction, operation and eventual decommissioning of the Demo Asset and the Expansion Asset and other potential future projects are and will be conditional upon various environmental and regulatory approvals, permits, leases and licenses issued by governmental authorities, including but not limited to the approval of the Alberta Energy Regulator and the Alberta Ministry of Environment and Protected Areas. There can be no assurance that such approvals, permits, leases and licenses will be granted or, once granted, that they will subsequently be renewed or will not be cancelled or contain terms and conditions which the Company cannot comply with and make the Company’s projects uneconomic, or cause the Company to significantly curtail production or alter its projects. Further, the construction, operation and decommissioning of the Demo Asset and Expansion Asset projects and other potential future projects will be subject to regulatory approvals and statutes and regulations relating to environmental protection and operational safety. There can be no assurance that third parties will not object during applicable regulatory processes.

Due to the geographical concentration of the Company’s assets, the Company may be disproportionately impacted by delays or interruptions in the region in which it operates.

The Company’s properties and production are focused in the Southern Athabasca region of Northeastern Alberta. As a result, the Company may be disproportionately exposed to the impact of delays or interruptions of production caused by transportation capacity constraints, curtailment of production, availability of equipment, facilities, personnel or services, water shortages, significant governmental regulation, natural disasters, fires, adverse weather conditions, plant closures for scheduled maintenance or interruption of transportation of oil or natural gas produced from the wells in these areas.

In addition, the effect of fluctuations on supply and demand may become more pronounced within the specific geographic oil and gas-producing areas in which the Company’s properties are located, which may cause these conditions to occur with greater frequency or magnify the effect of these conditions on the Company. Due to the concentrated nature of the Company’s portfolio of properties, a number of the Company’s properties could experience one or more of the same conditions at the same time, resulting in a relatively greater impact on the Company’s results of operations than they might have on other companies that have a more diversified portfolio of properties. Such delays or interruptions could have a material adverse effect on the operating results and financial condition of the Company.

Entrance into new industry-related activities or geographical areas could adversely affect the Company’s future operational and financial conditions.

In the future, the Company may acquire or move into new industry-related activities or new geographical areas or acquire different energy-related assets, and as a result, may face unexpected risks or alternatively, significantly increase its exposure to one or more existing risk factors, which may in turn result in the Company’s future operational and financial conditions being adversely affected.

The Company’s operations may be negatively impacted by factors outside of its control, including weather events, resulting in operational delays and cost overruns.

A portion of the Company’s production costs are fixed regardless of current operating levels. The Company’s operating levels can be subject to factors beyond its control that can delay deliveries or increase the cost of operation at particular sites for varying lengths of time. These factors include weather conditions (e.g., extreme winter weather, tornadoes, floods, and the lack of availability of process water due to drought), fires and other natural and man-made disasters, unanticipated geological conditions, including variations in the amount and type of rock and soil overlying the oil or natural gas deposits, variations in rock and other natural materials and variations in geologic conditions.

Fire in the Athabasca region has been a recurring issue and has, in the past, resulted in the suspension of operations at the Hangingstone Facilities as well as suspension of operations at surrounding SAGD facilities due to safety concerns.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The processes that take place in the Company’s facilities and those facilities owned by third parties through which the Company’s production is transported and processed depend on critical pieces of equipment. This equipment may, on occasion, be out of service because of unanticipated failures. In addition, some of these facilities have been in operation for several decades, and the equipment is aged. In the future, the Company may experience additional material shutdowns or periods of reduced production because of equipment failures. Further, remediation of any interruption in production capability may require the Company to make large capital expenditures that could have a negative effect on profitability and cash flows. The Company’s business interruption insurance may not cover all or any of the lost revenues associated with equipment failures. Longer-term business disruptions could result in a loss of customers, which adversely could affect future sales levels and profitability.

Lack of capacity and/or regulatory constraints on gathering and processing facilities, pipeline systems, trucking and railway lines may have a negative impact on the Company’s ability to produce and sell its oil and natural gas.

The Company delivers its products through gathering and processing facilities, pipeline systems and may in certain circumstances, deliver by truck and rail. The amount of bitumen that the Company can produce and sell is subject to the accessibility, availability, proximity and capacity of these gathering and processing facilities, pipeline systems, trucking and railway lines. The lack of availability of capacity in any of the gathering and processing facilities, pipeline systems, trucking and railway lines could result in the Company’s inability to realize the full economic potential of its production or in a reduction of the price offered for the Company’s production. The lack of firm pipeline capacity continues to affect the oil and natural gas industry and limit the ability to transport produced oil and gas to market. In addition, the pro-rationing of capacity on inter-provincial and international pipeline systems continues to affect the ability to export oil and natural gas. Unexpected shutdowns or curtailment of the capacity of pipelines for maintenance or integrity work or because of actions taken by regulators could also affect the Company’s production, operations and financial results.

A portion of the Company’s production may, from time to time, be processed through facilities owned by third parties and over which the Company does not have control. From time to time, these facilities may discontinue or decrease operations as a result of normal servicing requirements or unexpected events. A discontinuation or decrease of operations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to process its production and deliver the same to market. Midstream and pipeline companies may take actions to maximize their return on investment, which may in turn adversely affect producers and shippers, especially when combined with a regulatory framework that may not always align with the interests of particular shippers.

The Company competes with other oil and natural gas companies, many of which have greater financial and operational resources.

The Canadian and international petroleum industry is highly competitive in all aspects, including the exploration for, and the development of, new sources of supply, the acquisition of oil production leases and the distribution and marketing of petroleum products. The Company competes with producers of bitumen, synthetic crude oil blends and conventional crude oil. Some of the conventional producers have lower operating costs than the Company, and many of them have greater resources to source, attract and retain the personnel, materials and services that the Company requires to conduct its operations. Other producers may also have substantially greater financial resources, staff and facilities than the Company. Some of these companies not only explore for, develop and produce oil and natural gas, but also carry on refining operations and market oil and natural gas on an international basis. As a result of these complementary activities, some of these competitors may have greater and more diverse competitive resources to draw on than the Company. The Company’s ability to increase its reserves in the future will depend not only on its ability to explore and develop its present properties, but also on its ability to select and acquire other suitable producing properties or prospects for exploratory drilling.

The petroleum industry is characterized by rapid and significant technological advancements and introductions of new products and services using new technologies that may increase the viability of reserves or reduce production costs. Other companies may have greater financial, technical and personnel resources that allow them to implement and benefit from such technological advantages. The Company may not be able to respond to such competitive pressures and implement such technologies on a timely basis, or at an acceptable cost. If the Company does implement such technologies, it may not do so successfully. One or more of the technologies currently used by the Company or implemented in the future may become obsolete. If the Company is unable to use the most advanced commercially available technology, or is unsuccessful in implementing certain technologies, its business, financial condition and results of operations could also be adversely affected in a material way.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 46
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company also faces competition from companies that supply alternative resources of energy, such as wind and solar power.

Other factors that could affect competition in the marketplace include additional discoveries of Hydrocarbon reserves by the Company’s competitors, changes in the cost of production, political and economic factors and other factors outside the Company’s control.

Changes to royalty regimes could adversely affect the profitability of the Company’s operations.

The Province of Alberta receives royalties on the production of natural resources from lands in which it owns the mineral rights that are linked to price and production levels and that apply to both new and existing thermal oil production projects. There can be no assurances that the Government of Alberta will not adopt new royalty regimes or alter existing royalty regimes, which may render the Company’s projects uneconomical or otherwise adversely affect its results of operations, financial condition or prospects.

Oil and natural gas operations are subject to seasonal weather conditions, and the Company may experience significant operational delays or costs as a result.

The level of activity in the Canadian oil and natural gas industry is influenced by seasonal weather patterns. Wet weather and spring thaw may make the ground unstable. Consequently, municipalities and provincial transportation departments enforce road bans that restrict the movement of rigs and other heavy equipment, thereby reducing activity levels. Certain oil and natural gas producing areas are located in areas that are inaccessible other than during the winter months because the ground surrounding the sites in these areas consists of swampy terrain. Extreme cold weather, heavy snowfall and heavy rainfall may restrict the Company’s ability to access its properties and cause operational difficulties. In addition, low temperatures increase the viscosity of diluent and bitumen. With higher viscosities, more diluent is required to blend bitumen for pipeline transportation, and bitumen becomes thicker and more difficult to transport by truck, in each case, resulting in increased operating costs. Higher than normal temperatures can negatively affect the operation of equipment used for processing and cooling of product and for inputs, such as natural gas delivery from third parties. Seasonal factors and unexpected weather patterns may lead to declines in exploration and production activity and increased operating costs, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes to applicable tax laws or government incentive programs may affect the Company’s operations, financial condition or prospects.

Income tax laws or government incentive programs relating to the oil and gas industry and in particular, the oil sands sector, may in the future be changed or interpreted in a manner that adversely affects the Company’s result of operations, financial condition or prospects. In addition, corporate tax pools may be adjusted due to changes with respect to changes of tax law interpretation or audit.

Defects in the title or rights to produce the Company’s properties may result in a financial loss.

The Company’s actual title to and interest in its properties, and its right to produce and sell the products therefrom, may vary from the Company’s records. In addition, there may be valid legal challenges or legislative changes, or prior unregistered agreements, interests or claims of which the Company is currently unaware, that affect the Company’s title to and right to produce petroleum from its properties, which could impair the Company’s activities and result in a reduction of the revenue received by the Company.

If a defect exists in the chain of title or in the Company’s right to produce, or a legal challenge or legislative change arises, it is possible that the Company may lose all, or a portion of, the properties to which the title defect relates and/or its right to produce from such properties. This may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 47
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company may be required to surrender lands to the Province of Alberta if annual lease payments are not made.

The Company has two project regions in the Athabasca region of Alberta consisting of oil sands leases, either acquired from the Government of Alberta or from third parties. All of the Company’s leases require annual lease payments to the Alberta provincial government. If the Company does not maintain the annual lease payments, it will lose its ability to explore and develop the properties, and the Company will not retain any kind of interest in the properties.

Risk management activities expose the Company to the risk of financial loss and counter-party risk.

The Company has and continues to use physical and financial instruments to hedge a portion of its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices (potentially including, but not limited to, hedging the index price that approximates the Company’s realized price for its bitumen and benchmark pricing that approximates the price the Company pays for diluent, natural gas and power) and may also use such instruments in respect of exchange and interest rates. If bitumen, diluent, natural gas, power prices, exchange or interest rates increase above or decrease below levels contracted for in any hedging agreements, such hedging arrangements may prevent the Company from realizing the full benefit of such increases or decreases. In addition, the Company’s risk management arrangements may expose it to the risk of financial loss or otherwise have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations or prospects in certain circumstances, including instances in which:

production falls short of the contracted volumes<br>or prices fall significantly lower than projected;
there is a widening of price-basis differentials<br>between delivery points for production and the delivery point assumed in the arrangement;
--- ---
the Company is required to pay a margin call<br>on a derivative instrument based on a market or reference price that is higher than the hedged price;
--- ---
counterparties to the arrangements or other price<br>risk management contracts become insolvent or otherwise fail to perform under those arrangements; or
--- ---
a sudden or unexpected event materially impacts<br>market prices for bitumen, diluent, natural gas, power or exchange or interest rates.
--- ---

Not all risks of conducting oil and natural gas opportunities are insurable and the occurrence of an uninsurable event may have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The operation of the Company’s SAGD production properties and projects have experienced and will continue to be subject to the customary hazards of recovering, transporting and processing Hydrocarbons, such as fires, explosions, gaseous leaks, migration of harmful substances, equipment failures, blowouts, spills and other accidents.

In addition, the geological characteristics and integrity of the bitumen reservoirs are inherently uncertain. The injection of steam into reservoirs under significant pressure may result in unforeseen damage to reservoirs that could result in steam blowouts or oil or gaseous leaks. A casualty occurrence might result in the loss of equipment or life, as well as injury, environmental or property damage or the interruption of the Company’s operations.

Although the Company maintains insurance in accordance with industry standards to address certain of these risks, such insurance has limitations on liability and may not be sufficient to cover the full extent of such liabilities. In addition, certain risks are not, in all circumstances, insurable or, in certain circumstances, the Company may elect not to obtain insurance to deal with specific risks due to the high premiums associated with such insurance or other reasons. The payment of any uninsured liabilities would reduce the funds available to the Company. The occurrence of a significant event that the Company is not fully insured against, or the insolvency of the insurer of such event, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 48
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company’s insurance policies are generally renewed on an annual basis and, depending on factors such as market conditions, the premiums, policy limits and/or deductibles for certain insurance policies can vary substantially. In some instances, certain insurance may become unavailable or available only for reduced amounts of coverage. Significantly increased costs could lead the Company to decide to reduce or possibly eliminate coverage. In addition, insurance is purchased from a number of third-party insurers, often in layered insurance arrangements, some of whom may discontinue providing insurance coverage for their own policy or strategic reasons. Should any of these insurers refuse to continue to provide insurance coverage, the Company’s overall risk exposure could be increased, and the Company could incur significant costs.

The Company relies on its reputation to continue its operations and to attract and retain investors and employees.

Oil sands development receives significant political, media and activist commentary regarding GHG emissions, pipeline transportation, water usage, harm to Indigenous communities and potential for environmental damage. Public concerns regarding such issues may directly or indirectly harm the Company’s operations and profitability in a number of ways, including by: (i) creating significant regulatory uncertainty that could challenge the economic modelling of future development; (ii) motivating extraordinary environmental regulation by governmental authorities that could result in changes to facility design and operating requirements, thereby increasing the cost of construction, operation and abandonment; (iii) imposing restrictions on production from oil sands operations that could reduce the amount of bitumen, crude oil and natural gas that the Company is ultimately able to produce from its reserves; and (iv) resulting in proposed pipelines not being able to receive the necessary permits and approvals, which, in turn, may limit the market for the Company’s crude oil and natural gas and reduce its price. Concerns over these issues may also harm the Company’s corporate reputation and limit its ability to access land and joint venture opportunities.

The Company’s business, operations or financial condition may be negatively impacted as a result of any negative public opinion towards the Company or as a result of any negative sentiment toward, or in respect of, the Company’s reputation with stakeholders, special interest groups, political leadership, the media or other entities. Public opinion may be influenced by certain media and special interest groups’ negative portrayal of the industry in which the Company operates as well as their opposition to certain oil sands and other oil and natural gas projects. Potential impacts of negative public opinion or reputational issues may include delays or interruptions in operations, legal or regulatory actions or challenges, blockades, increased regulatory oversight, reduced support for, delays in, challenges to, or the revocation of regulatory approvals, permits and/or licenses, and increased costs and/or cost overruns. The Company’s reputation and public opinion could also be impacted by the actions and activities of other companies operating in the oil and natural gas industry, particularly other producers, over which the Company has no control. Similarly, the Company’s reputation could be impacted by negative publicity related to loss of life, injury or damage to property and environmental damage caused by the Company’s operations. In addition, if the Company develops a reputation of having an unsafe work site, it may impact the ability of the Company to attract and retain the necessary skilled employees and consultants to operate its business. Opposition from special interest groups opposed to oil and natural gas development and the possibility of climate-related litigation against governments and Hydrocarbon companies may impact the Company’s reputation.

Reputational risk cannot be managed in isolation from other forms of risk. Credit, market, operational, insurance, regulatory and legal risks, among others, must all be managed effectively to safeguard the Company’s reputation. Damage to the Company’s reputation could result in negative investor sentiment towards the Company, which may result in limiting the Company’s access to capital, increasing the cost of capital, and decreasing the price and liquidity of the Company’s securities.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 49
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Opposition by Indigenous groups to the conduct of the Company’s operations, development or exploratory activities may negatively impact the Company.

Opposition by Indigenous groups to the conduct of the Company’s operations, development or exploratory activities, and successful claims for treaty rights or Aboriginal title on lands used by the Company, may negatively impact the Company in terms of public perception, diversion of management’s time and resources, and legal and other advisory expenses, and could adversely impact the Company’s progress and ability to explore and develop properties.

The Canadian federal and provincial governments have a duty to consult with Indigenous people when contemplating actions that may adversely affect the asserted or proven Aboriginal or treaty rights and, in certain circumstances, accommodate their concerns. The scope of the duty to consult by federal and provincial governments varies with the circumstances and is often the subject of ongoing litigation. The fulfillment of the duty to consult Indigenous people and any associated accommodations may adversely affect the Company’s ability to, or increase the timeline to, obtain or renew, permits, leases, licenses and other approvals, or to meet the terms and conditions of those approvals.

In addition, the Canadian federal government has introduced legislation to implement UNDRIP. Other Canadian jurisdictions have also introduced or passed similar legislation, or begun considering the principles and objectives of UNDRIP, or may do so in the future. The means and timelines associated with UNDRIP’s implementation by the government are uncertain; additional processes may be created, or legislation amended or introduced associated with project development and operations, further increasing uncertainty with respect to project regulatory approval timelines and requirements.

An inability to recruit and retain a skilled workforce and key personnel may negatively impact the Company.

The operations and management of the Company require the recruitment and retention of a skilled workforce, including engineers, technical personnel and other professionals. The loss of key members of such workforce, or a substantial portion of the workforce as a whole, could result in the failure to implement the Company’s business plans which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. While changes in leadership of the Company announced in 2025 were intended to remedy any then current or future personnel issues, such changes may not be sufficient to fully mitigate any potential adverse effects described here. See “General Developmentof the Business—2025—Changes in Leadership”.

The labor force in Alberta, and in the surrounding area, is limited and there can be no assurance that all the required employees with the necessary expertise will be available. Competition for qualified personnel in the oil and natural gas industry is high and the Company may not be able to continue to attract and retain all personnel necessary for the development and operation of its business. The Company does not have any key personnel insurance in effect. Contributions of the existing management team to the immediate and near-term operations of the Company are likely to be of central importance. In addition, certain of the Company’s current employees may have significant institutional knowledge that must be transferred to other employees prior to their departure from the workforce. If the Company is unable to: (i) retain current employees; (ii) successfully complete effective knowledge transfers; and/or (iii) recruit new employees with the requisite knowledge and experience, the Company could be negatively impacted. In addition, the Company could experience increased costs to retain and recruit these professionals.

Restrictions on operational activities intended to protect certain species of wildlife may adversely affect the Company’s ability to conduct drilling and other operational activities in some of the areas where it operates.

Operations in the Company’s operating areas can be adversely affected by seasonal or permanent restrictions on construction, drilling and well completions activities designed to protect various wildlife. Seasonal restrictions may limit the Company’s ability to operate in protected areas and can intensify competition for drilling rigs, oilfield equipment, services, supplies and qualified personnel, which may lead to periodic shortages when drilling and completion activities are allowed. These constraints and the resulting shortages or high costs could delay the Company’s operations and materially increase the Company’s operating and capital costs. Permanent restrictions imposed to protect endangered species could prohibit development in certain areas or require the implementation of expensive mitigation measures. The designation of previously unprotected species as threatened or endangered in areas where the Company operates could cause the Company to incur increased costs arising from species protection measures or could result in limitations on the Company’s exploration and production activities that could have an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to develop and produce its reserves.

Risks Related to Climate Change and Related Regulation

Physical and Transitional Climate Change Risks

Physical risks associated with climate change may include severe changes to weather patterns or catastrophic events such as fires, lightning, earthquakes, extreme cold weather, storms or floods, changes to seasonal weather patterns and the corresponding effects of seasonal conditions and temperatures, any of which may impact Greenfire’s operations.

Transitional risks include risks associated with a global transition to a less carbon-intensive economy, including changes to laws and regulations, increased activism and public opposition to fossil fuels and oil sands, reduced demand for Greenfire’s products and services as new energy technologies are developed and gain prominence, and reputational risks. Reputational risks include numerous factors which could negatively affect Greenfire’s reputation, including general public perceptions of the energy industry, negative publicity relating to pipeline incidents, unpopular expansion plans or new projects, opposition from organizations and populations opposed to fossil fuels development, specifically oil sands projects and pipeline projects, including expansions thereof. A negative impact from transitional risks could result in loss of customers, revenue loss, delays in obtaining regulatory approvals for pipelines and other projects, increased operating, capital, financing or regulatory costs, diminished shareholder confidence, continuing changes to laws and regulations affecting Greenfire’s business or erosion or loss of public support towards the hydrocarbon-based energy sector. Negative public perception of the Alberta oil sands, where Greenfire’s thermal oil production operations are located, may impair the profitability of Greenfire’s current or future oil sands projects.

Development of the Alberta oil sands has received considerable attention on the subjects of environmental impact, climate change, water usage, GHG emissions and Indigenous engagement. The influence of anti-fossil fuels activists (with a focus on oil sands) targeting equity and debt investors, lenders and insurers may result in policies which reduce support for or investment in the Alberta oil sands sector. Concerns about oil sands, including but not limited to heightened GHG emissions and water and land use practices in oil sands developments may, directly or indirectly, impair the profitability of Greenfire’s current thermal oil production projects, and the viability of future thermal oil production projects, by creating significant regulatory uncertainty leading to economic uncertainty in current and future projects and delays relating to the permitting and construction of future projects. In addition, evolving decarbonization policies of institutional investors, lenders and insurers could affect Greenfire’s ability to access capital and insurance markets.

In recent years, certain institutional investors have stopped or reduced their investments in the Canadian energy industry or only invested in companies that satisfy their green, renewable energy, sustainability or environment, social and governance criteria. Similarly, certain insurance companies have taken actions or announced policies to limit available coverage for companies which derive some or all of their revenue from the oil sands sector. As a result of these policies, premiums and deductibles for some or all of Greenfire’s insurance policies could increase substantially. In some instances, coverage may become unavailable or available only for reduced amounts of coverage. As a result, Greenfire may not be able to extend or renew existing policies, or procure other desirable insurance coverage, either on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

Other negative consequences which could arise as a result of changes to the current regulatory environment include, but are not limited to, changes in environmental and emissions regulation of current and future projects by governmental authorities, which could result in changes to facility design and operating requirements, potentially increasing the cost of construction, operation and abandonment. In addition, legislation or policies that limit the purchase of crude oil produced from the oil sands may be adopted in domestic and/or foreign jurisdictions, which, in turn, may limit the demand for this crude oil, reduce its price and may result in stranded assets or an inability to further develop such crude oil resources.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 51
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Compliance with environmental regulations requires the dedication of a portion of the Company’s financial and operational resources.

Compliance with environmental legislation may require significant expenditures, some of which may be material. Environmental compliance requirements may result in a curtailment of production or a material increase in the costs of production, development or exploration activities or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

The direct and indirect costs of the various GHG regulations, current and emerging in both Canada and the United States, including any limits on oil sands emissions through the Canadian federal government’s implementation of the Paris Agreement through the GGPPA, the Clean Fuel Regulations, the Alberta TIER regulation and any other federal or provincial carbon emission pricing system, may adversely affect the Company’s business, operations and financial results.

Environmental regulation of GHG emissions in the United States could result in increased costs and/or reduced revenue for oil sands companies such as the Company. While federal oversight is currently undergoing a period of significant contraction, the regulatory landscape remains fragmented and unpredictable. In February 2026, the US. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) finalized the rescission of its 2009 Endangerment Finding, the core legal mechanism used to regulate GHGs as pollutants under the Clean Air Act. This action has triggered the repeal of several federal emission standards for mobile and stationary sources, potentially reducing immediate federal compliance burdens. The EPA continues to manage the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), with recent 2026-2027 proposals prioritizing domestic biofuels. Adjustments to blending requirements and the valuation of compliance credits (RINs) could disadvantage foreign feedstocks or imported fuel products, affecting the Company’s competitive position in the U.S. market. Recent EPA actions have scaled back the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP), suspending reporting requirements for many petroleum and natural gas segments until 2034. Additionally, compliance deadlines for methane emission controls have been extended, providing temporary operational relief but creating long-term uncertainty regarding future enforcement. Despite federal rollbacks, individual states (such as California and those in the Northeast) continue to enforce and expand their own Low Carbon Fuel Standards (LCFS) and cap-and-trade programs. These state-level mandates, combined with ongoing climate-related litigation against fossil fuel companies, could impose significant costs on direct and indirect users of the Company’s products, potentially reducing overall demand. The current deregulatory trend is subject to intense legal challenges and could be reversed by future administrations or congressional actions. Any such reversal could result in the sudden imposition of more stringent GHG regulations, requiring the Company to incur substantial capital expenditures to remain compliant.

The direct and indirect costs of various GHG regulations, existing and proposed, may adversely affect the Company’s business, operations and financial results, including demand for the Company’s products.

The Company’s exploration and production facilities and other operations and activities emit GHGs, which require the Company to comply with federal and/or provincial GHG emissions legislation in Canada. Climate change policy is evolving at regional, national and international levels, and political and economic events may significantly affect the scope and timing of climate change measures that are ultimately put in place to prevent climate change or mitigate its effects. The direct or indirect costs of compliance with GHG-related regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The Company’s facilities may ultimately be subject to future regional, provincial and/or federal climate change regulations to manage GHG emissions. Although it is not possible at this time to predict how new laws or regulations in the United States and Canada would impact the Company’s business, any such future laws, regulations or legal requirements imposing reporting or permitting obligations on, or limiting emissions of GHGs from, the Company’s equipment and operations could require the Company to incur costs to reduce emissions of GHGs associated with its operations or to purchase emission credits or offsets as well as delays or restrictions in its ability to permit GHG emissions from new or modified sources. The direct or indirect costs of compliance with these regulations may have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Company. Any such regulations could also increase the cost of consumption, and thereby reduce demand for the bitumen the Company produces. Given the evolving nature of the discourse related to climate change and the control of GHGs and resulting regulatory requirements, it is not possible to predict with certainty the impact on the Company and its operations and financial condition.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Abandonment and Reclamation

The Company will need to comply with the terms and conditions of environmental and regulatory approvals and all legislation regarding the abandonment of its projects and reclamation of the project lands at the end of their economic life, which may result in substantial abandonment and reclamation costs. Any failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Company’s approvals and legislation may result in the imposition of fines and penalties, which may be material. Generally, abandonment and reclamation costs are substantial and, while the Company accrues a reserve in its financial statements for such costs in accordance with IFRS, such accruals may be insufficient.

In the future, the Company may determine it prudent or be required by applicable Laws, regulations or regulatory approvals to establish and fund one or more reclamation funds to provide for payment of future abandonment and reclamation costs. If the Company establishes a reclamation fund, its liquidity and cash flow may be adversely affected.

Alberta has developed a liability management framework designed to prevent taxpayers from incurring costs associated with suspension, abandonment, remediation and reclamation of wells, facilities and pipelines if a licensee or permit holder is unable to satisfy its regulatory obligations. The implementation of, or changes to, the requirements of the liability management framework may result in significant increases to the security that must be posted by licensees, increased and more frequent financial disclosure obligations or may result in the denial of license or permit transfers, which could impact the availability of capital to be spent by such licensees which could in turn materially adversely affect the Company’s business and financial condition. In addition, this liability management framework may prevent or interfere with a licensee’s ability to acquire or dispose of assets, as both the vendor and the purchaser of oil and natural gas assets must be in compliance with the liability management framework for the applicable regulatory agency to allow for the transfer of such assets.

Protection of Wildlife

Crude oil operations in Greenfire’s operating areas can be adversely affected by seasonal or permanent restrictions on drilling, well completion or construction activities designed to protect certain species of wildlife. Such restrictions may limit Greenfire’s ability to operate in protected areas and can intensify competition for drilling rigs, oilfield equipment, services, supplies and qualified personnel, which may lead to periodic shortages when drilling and well completion activities are allowed. These constraints and the resulting shortages or high costs could delay Greenfire’s operations and materially increase its operating and capital costs. Permanent restrictions imposed to protect threatened or endangered species could prohibit drilling and completions in certain areas or require the implementation of expensive mitigation measures. The designation of previously unprotected species as threatened or endangered in areas where Greenfire operates could cause it to incur increased costs arising from species protection measures or could result in limitations on Greenfire’s exploration and production activities that could have an adverse impact on its ability to develop and produce its reserves.

Proposed Import Restrictions

Some foreign jurisdictions have attempted to introduce carbon fuel standards that require a reduction in life cycle GHG emissions from vehicle fuels. Some standards propose a system to calculate the life cycle of GHG emissions of fuels to permit the identification and use of lower-emitting fuels.

Any foreign import restrictions or financial penalties imposed on the use of bitumen may restrict the markets in which Greenfire may sell its products and/or result in Greenfire receiving a lower price for such products.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Additional Regulation and Regulatory Compliance

The crude oil industry in Canada operates under Canadian federal, provincial, territorial and municipal legislation and regulations governing such matters as land tenure, lease extensions, Indigenous consultation, prices, royalties, taxes, production rates, environmental protection controls, operating practices, income, the production, transportation, sale and export of crude oil and other products, the use of subsurface water, land use, expropriation and other matters. In addition, there are many international rules, regulations and requirements relating to the shipping of crude oil products, via land or sea.

Government regulations may be changed from time to time in response to economic or political conditions. The exercise of discretion by governmental authorities under existing regulations, the implementation of new regulations or the modification of existing regulations affecting the thermal oil production industry may have a material adverse effect on Greenfire’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Risks Related to Political and other Legal Matters and Regulations

The Company’s business may be adversely affected by political and social events and decisions made in Canada.

The Company’s results can be adversely impacted by political, legal, or regulatory developments in Canada that affect local operations and local and international markets. Changes in government, government policy or regulations, changes in law or interpretation of settled law, third-party opposition to industrial activity generally or projects specifically, and duration of regulatory reviews could impact the Company’s existing operations and planned projects. This includes actions by regulators or political actors to delay or deny necessary licenses and permits for the Company’s activities or restrict the operation of third-party infrastructure that the Company relies on. Additionally, changes in environmental regulations, assessment processes or other laws, and increasing and expanding stakeholder and Indigenous consultation, may increase the cost of compliance or reduce or delay available business opportunities and adversely impact the Company’s results.

Other government and political factors that could adversely affect the Company’s financial results include increases in taxes or government royalty rates (including retroactive claims) and changes in trade policies and agreements. Further, the adoption of regulations mandating efficiency standards, and the use of alternative fuels or uncompetitive fuel components could affect the Company’s operations. Many governments are providing tax advantages and other subsidies to support alternative energy sources or are mandating the use of specific fuels or technologies. Governments and others are also promoting research into new technologies to reduce the cost and increase the scalability of alternative energy sources, and the success of these initiatives may decrease demand for the Company’s products.

A change in federal, provincial or municipal governments in Canada may have an impact on the directions taken by such governments on matters that may impact the oil and natural gas industry, including the balance between economic development and environmental policy. The oil and natural gas industry has become an increasingly politically polarizing topic in Canada, which has resulted in a rise in civil disobedience surrounding oil and natural gas development — particularly with respect to infrastructure projects. Protests, blockades and demonstrations have the potential to delay and disrupt the Company’s activities.

The handling of secure information for destruction exposes the Company to potential data security risks that could result in monetary damages against the Company and could otherwise damage its reputation, and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

The protection of customer, employee, and company data is critical to the Company’s business. The regulatory environment in Canada surrounding information security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with the frequent imposition of new and constantly changing requirements. Certain legislation, including the PersonalInformation Protection and Electronic Documents Act in Canada, require documents to be securely destroyed to avoid identity theft and inadvertent disclosure of confidential and sensitive information. A significant breach of customer, employee, or company data could attract a substantial amount of media attention, damage the Company’s customer relationships and reputation, and result in lost sales, fines, or lawsuits. In addition, an increasing number of countries have introduced and/or increased enforcement of comprehensive privacy laws or are expected to do so. The continued emphasis on information security as well as increasing concerns about government surveillance may lead customers to request the Company to take additional measures to enhance security and/or assume higher liability under its contracts. As a result of legislative initiatives and customer demands, the Company may have to modify its operations to further improve data security. Any such modifications may result in increased expenses and operational complexity, and adversely affect its reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure to comply with anti-corruption, economic sanctions, and anti-money laundering laws could subject the Company to penalties and other adverse consequences.

The Company is subject to governmental export and import control laws and regulations, as well as laws and regulations relating to foreign ownership and economic sanctions. The Company’s failure to comply with these laws and regulations and other anti-corruption laws that prohibit companies, their officers, directors, employees and third-party intermediaries from directly or indirectly promising, authorizing, offering, or providing improper payments or benefits to any person or entity, including any government officials, political parties, and private-sector recipients, for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business, directing business to any person, or securing any advantage could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Changes to trade policy, economic sanctions, tariffs, and import/export regulations may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company will likely be subject to, and will be required to remain in compliance with, numerous laws and governmental regulations concerning the production, use, and distribution of its products and services. Potential future customers may also require that Greenfire complies with their own unique requirements relating to these matters, including provision of data and related assurance for ESG-related standards or goals. Existing and future environmental, health and safety laws and regulations could result in increased compliance costs or additional operating costs or construction costs and restrictions. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations may result in internal and/or government investigations, substantial fines, or other limitations that may adversely impact the Company’s financial results or results of operation. The Company’s business may also be adversely affected by changes in the regulation of the global energy industry.

Foreign markets may impose import restrictions and penalties on high carbon fuels which may impact the price the Company receives for its products.

Some foreign jurisdictions have attempted to introduce carbon fuel standards that require a reduction in life cycle GHG emissions from vehicle fuels. Some standards propose a system to calculate the life cycle of GHG emissions of fuels to permit the identification and use of lower-emitting fuels. Any foreign import restrictions or financial penalties imposed on the use of bitumen or bitumen blend products may restrict the markets in which the Company may sell its bitumen and bitumen blend products and/or result in the Company receiving a lower price for such products.

Trade Relations and Tariffs

Recent developments in U.S.–Canada trade relations, including the threat and, in some cases, the imposition of tariffs on certain Canadian goods, highlight the uncertainty associated with international trade policy. As the United States remains Canada’s primary trading partner and the largest international market for the export of crude oil, natural gas and NGL from Canada, any changes to, or developments in U.S. – Canada trade relations could have an impact on Canada’s oil and natural gas industry at large, including the Company’s business. Potential measures could include increased tariffs on Canadian energy exports, restrictions on cross-border supply chains, or additional regulatory barriers to trade.

The implementation or continuation of tariffs and/or further retaliatory trade measures could have a significant impact on the economy and market for bitumen and other products required to carry on our operations and could result in, among other things, a high degree of both cost and price volatility, a relative weakening of the Canadian dollar, widening differentials, and decreased demand for our products. Any or all of such effects may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Failure to comply with laws relating to labor and employment could subject the Company to penalties and other adverse consequences.

The Company is subject to various employment-related laws in the jurisdictions in which its employees are based. It faces risks if it fails to comply with applicable Canadian federal or provincial wage law or applicable Canadian federal or provincial labor and employment laws, or wage, labor or employment laws applicable to any employees outside of Canada. Any violation of applicable wage laws or other labor or employment-related laws could result in complaints by current or former employees, adverse media coverage, investigations, and damages or penalties which could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s reputation, business, operating results, and prospects. In addition, responding to any such proceeding may result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources, significant defense costs, and other professional fees.

Risks Relating to the Company’s Technology, Intellectual Property and Infrastructure

Unauthorized use of intellectual property may cause the Company to engage in, or be the subject of, litigation.

Due to the rapid development of oil and natural gas technology, including with respect to recovering in situ oil sands resources, in the normal course of the Company’s operations, the Company may become involved in, named as a party to, or be the subject of, various legal proceedings in which it is alleged that the Company has infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated the intellectual property or proprietary rights of others. The Company may also initiate similar claims against third parties if it believes that such parties are infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating its intellectual property or proprietary rights. The Company’s involvement in any intellectual property litigation or legal proceedings could (i) result in significant expense, (ii) adversely affect the development of its assets or intellectual property, or (iii) otherwise divert the efforts of its technical and management personnel, whether or not such litigation or proceedings are resolved in the Company’s favor. In the event of an adverse outcome in any such litigation or proceeding, the Company may, among other things, be required to:

pay substantial damages and/or cease the development,<br>use, sale or importation of processes that infringe or violate upon the intellectual property rights of a third party;
expend significant resources to develop or acquire<br>the non-infringing intellectual property;
--- ---
discontinue processes incorporating the infringing<br>technology; or
--- ---
obtain licenses to the non-infringing intellectual<br>property.
--- ---

However, the Company may not be successful in such development or acquisition of the applicable non-infringing intellectual property, or such licenses may not be available on reasonable terms. In the event of a successful claim of infringement, misappropriation or violation of third-party intellectual property rights against the Company and its failure or inability to obtain a license to continue to use such technology on reasonable terms, the Company’s business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Breaches of the Company’s cyber-security and loss of, or unauthorized access to, data may adversely impact the Company’s operations and financial position.

The Company is increasingly dependent upon the availability, capacity, reliability and security of the Company’s information technology infrastructure, and the Company’s ability to expand and continually update this infrastructure, to conduct daily operations. the Company depends on various information technology systems to estimate reserves quantities, process and record financial data, manage the Company’s land base, manage financial resources, analyze seismic information, administer contracts with operators and lessees and communicate with employees and third-party partners. The Company currently uses, and may use in the future, outsourced service providers to help provide certain information technology services, and any such service providers may face similar security and system disruption risks. Moreover, some of the Company’s employees and service providers may be working from home and connecting to its networks remotely on less secure systems, which may further increase the risk of, and vulnerability to, a cyber security attack or security breach to the Company’s network. In addition, the Company’s ability to monitor its outsourced service providers’ security measures is limited and third parties may be able to circumvent those security measures, resulting in the unauthorized access to, misuse, acquisition, disclosure, loss, alteration, or destruction of the Company’s personal, confidential, or other data, including data relating to individuals.

Further, the Company is subject to a variety of information technology and system risks as a part of its operations including potential breakdowns, invasions, viruses, cyber-attacks, cyber-fraud, security breaches, and destruction or interruption of the Company’s information technology systems by third parties or employees. Unauthorized access to these systems by employees or third parties could lead to corruption or exposure of confidential, fiduciary or proprietary information, interruption to communications or operations or disruption to business activities or the Company’s competitive position. In addition, cyber phishing attempts have become more widespread and sophisticated in recent years. If the Company becomes a victim to a cyber phishing attack, it could result in a loss or theft of the Company’s financial resources or critical data and information, or could result in a loss of control of the Company’s technological infrastructure or financial resources. The Company’s employees are often the targets of such cyber phishing attacks by third parties using fraudulent “spoof” emails to misappropriate information or to introduce viruses or other malware through “Trojan horse” programs to the Company’s computers.

Increasingly, social media is used as a vehicle to carry out cyber phishing attacks by nefarious actors. Information posted on social media sites, for business or personal purposes, may be used by attackers to gain entry into the Company’s systems and obtain confidential information. There are significant risks that the Company may not be able to properly regulate social media use by its employees and preserve adequate records of business activities and client communications conducted through the use of social media platforms.

The Company maintains policies and procedures that address and implement employee protocols with respect to electronic communications and electronic devices and conducts annual cyber-security risk assessments. The Company also employs encryption protection of its confidential information, and all computers and other electronic devices. Despite the Company’s efforts to mitigate such cyber phishing attacks through employee education and training, cyber phishing activities may result in unauthorized access, data theft and damage to its information technology infrastructure. The Company applies technical and process controls in line with industry-accepted standards to protect its information, assets and systems. However, these controls may not adequately prevent cyber-security breaches or attacks. As such, the Company may need to continuously develop, modify, upgrade or enhance its information technology infrastructure and cyber-security measures to secure its business, which can lead to increased cyber-security protection costs. Such costs may include making organizational changes, deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, training employees, and engaging third party experts and consultants. These efforts may come at the potential cost of revenues and human resources that could be used to continue to enhance the Company’s business, and such increased costs and diversion of resources may adversely affect operating margins. Disruption of critical information technology services, or breaches of information security, could have a negative effect on the Company’s performance and earnings, as well as its reputation, and any damages sustained may not be adequately covered by the Company’s current insurance coverage, or at all. The impact of any such cyber-security event could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 57
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company is subject to laws, rules, regulations and policies regarding data privacy and security. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and reinterpretation, and could result in claims, changes to its business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations or other harm to its business.

The Company is subject to certain laws, regulations, standards, and other actual and potential obligations relating to privacy, data hosting and transparency of data, data protection, and data security. Such laws are evolving rapidly, and the Company expects to potentially be subject to new laws and regulations, or new interpretations of laws and regulations, in the future in various jurisdictions. These laws, regulations, and other obligations, and changes in their interpretation, could require the Company to modify its operations and practices, restrict its activities, and increase its costs. Further, these laws, regulations, and other obligations are complex and evolving rapidly, and despite the Company’s reasonable efforts to monitor its potential obligations, the Company may face claims, allegations, or other proceedings related to its obligations under applicable privacy, data protection, or data security laws and regulations. The interpretation and implementation of these laws, regulations, and other obligations are uncertain for the foreseeable future and could be inconsistent with one another, which may complicate and increase the costs for compliance. As a result, the Company anticipates needing to dedicate substantial resources to comply with such laws, regulations, and other obligations relating to privacy and cyber-security. Despite the Company’s reasonable efforts to comply, any failure or alleged or perceived failure to comply with any applicable Laws, regulations, or other obligations relating to privacy, data protection, or data security could also result in regulatory investigations and proceedings, and misuse of or failure to secure data relating to individuals could also result in claims and proceedings against the Company by governmental entities or other third parties, penalties, fines and other liabilities, and may potentially damage the Company’s reputation and credibility, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

General Risk Factors Related to the Company

The Company is exposed to exchange and interest rate risks.

The Company is exposed to exchange rate risks from its U.S dollar-denominated debts. The Company’s revenues are based on the U.S. dollar, since revenue received from the sale of diluted bitumen and non-diluted bitumen is referenced to a price denominated in U.S. dollars, and the Company incurs most of its operating and other costs in Canadian dollars. As a result, the Company is impacted by exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar, and any strengthening of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar could negatively impact the Company’s operating margins and cash flows.

From time to time, the Company may enter into agreements to fix the exchange rate of Canadian to U.S. dollars or other currencies to offset the risk of revenue losses if the Canadian dollar increases in value compared to other currencies. However, if the Canadian dollar declines in value compared to such fixed currencies, the Company would not benefit from the fluctuating exchange rate.

Default under any of the Company’s debt instruments could result in the Company being required to repay amounts outstanding thereunder.

The Company is required to comply with covenants under the Senior Credit Agreement and Letter of Credit Facility and in the event it does not comply with these covenants, the Company’s access to capital could be restricted or repayment could be required. Events beyond the Company’s control may contribute to its failure to comply with such covenants. The acceleration of indebtedness under one agreement may permit acceleration of indebtedness under other agreements that contain cross default or cross-acceleration provisions.

If repayment of all or a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit Agreement or Letter of Credit Facility is required for any reason, including for a default of a covenant, there is no certainty that the Company would be in a position to make such repayment. Even if the Company is able to obtain new financing in order to make any required repayment under the Senior Credit Agreement or Letter of Credit Facility, it may not be on commercially reasonable terms, or terms that are acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to repay amounts owing under the Senior Credit Agreement, the lenders under such facility could proceed to foreclose or otherwise realize upon the collateral granted to them to secure the indebtedness.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 58
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company’s indebtedness could adversely affect the Company’s financial health.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no debt outstanding, with the Senior Credit Facility remaining undrawn.

The Senior Credit Agreement includes restrictive covenants which restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness; provide financial assistance; pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions; make investments; create liens on assets; transfer or sell assets; engage in mergers, amalgamations or consolidations; and engage in certain transactions with affiliates.

Those restrictive covenants could restrict the Company’s ability to carry on its business and operations or raise additional capital. Interference with the business and operations of the Company or the Company’s ability to raise additional capital could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects and its financial and operational condition.

Increased debt levels may impair the Company’s ability to borrow additional capital on a timely basis to fund opportunities as they arise.

From time to time, the Company may enter into transactions to acquire assets or shares of other entities. These transactions may be financed in whole, or in part, with debt, which may increase the Company’s debt levels above industry standards for oil and natural gas companies of similar size. Depending on future exploration and development plans, the Company may require additional debt financing that may not be available or, if available, may not be available on favorable terms. The Company’s constating documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness that the Company may incur. The level of the Company’s indebtedness from time to time could impair the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing on a timely basis to take advantage of business opportunities that may arise.

Some of Greenfire’s directors may become subject to conflicts of interest from time to time.

Some of Greenfire’s directors are engaged and will continue to be engaged in, other activities in the oil and gas industry from time to time, including the employment by, or other involvement in or with, WEF and Strathcona Resources Ltd. As a result of these and other activities, certain directors of Greenfire may become subject to conflicts of interest from time to time. Conflicts of interest, if any, are subject to and governed by procedures prescribed by the ABCA, which provide that in the event that an officer or director is a party to, or has a material interest in any person who is a party to, a material contract or material transaction or proposed material contract or proposed material transaction, such officer or director shall disclose such officer’s or director’s interest and, with respect to a director, to refrain from voting on any matter in respect of such contract or transaction unless otherwise permitted under the ABCA.

Investor confidence and share value may be adversely impacted if the Company concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective.

Effective internal controls are necessary for the Company to provide reliable financial reports and to help prevent fraud. Although the Company undertakes a number of procedures in order to help ensure the reliability of its financial reports, including those imposed on it under U.S. and Canadian securities laws, the Company cannot be certain that such measures will ensure that it will maintain adequate control over financial processes and reporting. Failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm the Company’s results of operations or cause it to fail to meet its reporting obligations. If the Company discovers a material weakness, the disclosure of that fact, even if quickly remedied, could reduce investor confidence in its consolidated financial statements and effectiveness of our internal controls, which ultimately could negatively impact the market price of our Common Shares.

![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The Company is an “emerging growth company” and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make the Common Shares less attractive to investors.

The Company is an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the JOBS Act, and is eligible for certain exemptions from various requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies”, including, but not limited to, including: (i) the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (ii) the exemptions from say-on-pay, say-on-frequency and say-on-golden parachute voting requirements; and (iii) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in the Company’s periodic reports and proxy statements. As a result, the Greenfire’s shareholders may not have access to certain information they deem important. The Company will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of: (a) the last day of the first fiscal year in which the Company’s annual gross revenues exceed US$1.235 billion; (b) the date that the Company becomes a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of the Common Shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds US$700 million as of the last business day of the Company’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter; (c) the date on which the Company has issued more than US$1.0 billion in nonconvertible debt during the preceding three-year period; or (d) the last day of the Company’s fiscal year containing the fifth anniversary of the date of the Company’s first public offering of securities. The Company may choose to rely upon some or all of the available exemptions. When the Company is no longer deemed to be an emerging growth company, the Company will not be entitled to the exemptions provided in the JOBS Act discussed above. The Company cannot predict if investors will find the Common Shares less attractive as a result of the Company’s reliance on exemptions under the JOBS Act. If investors find the Common Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for the Common Shares and the Company share price may be more volatile.

Canadian and U.S. investors may find it difficult or impossible to effect service of process and enforce judgments against the Company, the Company directors and executive officers.

Certain directors of the Company reside outside of Canada. Consequently, it may not be possible for Canadian investors to enforce judgments obtained in Canada against any person who resides outside of Canada, even if the party has appointed an agent for service of process. Furthermore, it may be difficult to realize upon or enforce in Canada any judgment of a court of Canada against the directors of Greenfire who reside outside of Canada since a substantial portion of the assets of such person may be located outside of Canada.

Similarly, the Company is incorporated under the laws of Alberta, Canada, and most of its officers and directors are not residents of the United States, and substantially all of the assets of the Company are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. investors to: (i) effect service of process within the United States upon the Company or those directors and officers who are not residents of the United States; or (ii) realize in the United States upon judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws.

The Company is a “foreign private issuer” under U.S. securities laws and therefore will be exempt from certain requirements applicable to U.S. domestic registrants listed on the NYSE.

Greenfire is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in the Exchange Act, and is exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act that impose certain disclosure obligations and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. In addition, Greenfire’s officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Moreover, we are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. Additionally, the NYSE rules allow foreign private issuers to follow home country practices in lieu of certain of the NYSE’s corporate governance rules.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 60
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

Although the Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirement of the Exchange Act, the periodic disclosure required of foreign private issuers under the Exchange Act is different from periodic disclosure required of U.S. domestic registrants. Therefore, there may be less publicly available information about the Company than is regularly published by or about other companies in the United States. The Company is exempt from certain other sections of the Exchange Act to which U.S. domestic issuers are subject, including the requirement to provide its shareholders with information statements or proxy statements that comply with the Exchange Act.

In June 2025, the SEC issued a concept release soliciting public comment on the definition of “foreign private issuer” to determine whether the current definition should be amended in light of significant changes in the foreign private issuer population over the last two decades. Any rulemaking in this area could result in changes to the eligibility criteria for foreign private issuer status, and if adopted, could have an impact on the Company’s U.S. reporting obligations.

Management estimates are subject to uncertainty.

In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS Accounting Standards, estimates and assumptions are used by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses recognized during the periods presented and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions must be made because certain information that is used in the preparation of such financial statements is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available, or is not capable of being readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. In some cases, these estimates are particularly difficult to determine, and the Company must exercise significant judgment. Estimates may be used in management’s assessment of items such as fair values, income taxes, stock-based compensation and asset retirement obligations. Actual results for all estimates could differ materially from the estimates and assumptions used by the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and future prospects.

Risks Related to Ownership of the Company’s Securities

The market price of the Common Shares may be subject to fluctuations and/or decline.

Fluctuations in the price of the Common Shares could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. If an active market for the Common Shares develops and continues, the trading price of the Common Shares could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on the Common Shares and, as such, Common Shares may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of the Common Shares may not recover and may experience a further decline.

Factors affecting the trading price of the Common Shares may include:

actual or anticipated fluctuations in its financial<br>results or the financial results of companies perceived to be similar to the Company;
changes in the market’s expectations about<br>the Company’s operating results;
--- ---
success of competitors;
--- ---
the Company’s operating results failing<br>to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;
--- ---
Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 61
--- ---
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)
changes in financial estimates and recommendations<br>by securities analysts concerning the Company or the market in general;
operating and stock price performance of other<br>companies that investors deem comparable to the Company;
--- ---
changes in laws and regulations affecting the<br>Company’s business;
--- ---
the Company’s ability to meet and maintain<br>compliance requirements;
--- ---
commencement of, or involvement in, litigation<br>involving the Company;
--- ---
changes in the Company’s capital structure,<br>such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;
--- ---
the volume of Common Shares available for public<br>sale;
--- ---
any major change in the Board or management of<br>the Company;
--- ---
sales of substantial amounts of Common Shares<br>by the WEF, or the perception that such sale could occur; and
--- ---
general economic and political conditions such<br>as recessions; fluctuations in interest rates, fuel prices and international currency; and acts of war or terrorism.
--- ---

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of the Common Shares irrespective of their operating performance. The stock market in general and the NYSE and the TSX have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of the Common Shares, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to the Company could depress the Company’s share price regardless of its business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of the Company’s securities also could adversely affect the Company’s ability to issue additional securities and its ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

The trading price of the securities of oil and natural gas issuers is subject to substantial volatility often based on factors related and unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the issuers involved. Factors unrelated to the Company’s performance could include macroeconomic developments nationally, within North America or globally, domestic and global commodity prices, and/or current perceptions of the oil and natural gas market. Similarly, the market price of the Common Shares could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in the Company’s operating results, financial condition, liquidity and other internal factors. Accordingly, the price at which the Common Shares will trade cannot be accurately predicted.

WEF’s significant ownership of Common Shares may adversely impact Greenfire’s other shareholders.

WEF holds approximately 72.0% of the Common Shares. As a result, WEF has the ability to control (or veto) certain matters submitted to shareholders for approval, including, without limitation, the election and removal of directors. This may negatively affect the attractiveness of Greenfire or cause the market price of the Common Shares to decline. The interests of WEF may not in all cases be aligned with interests of Greenfire’s other shareholders. In addition, WEF may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that, in the judgment of its management, could enhance its equity investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to all of Greenfire’s shareholders and may ultimately affect the market price of the Common Shares. So long as WEF continues to own, directly or indirectly, a significant amount of the Common Shares, WEF will continue to be able to strongly influence or effectively control Greenfire’s decisions.

WEF is in the business of making investments in companies and has and may acquire other interests in businesses that may directly or indirectly compete with certain portions of Greenfire’s business or which are suppliers or customers of Greenfire.

The Company’s sole material asset is its direct equity interest in GROC, and the Company is accordingly dependent upon distributions from GROC to pay taxes and cover its corporate and other overhead expenses and pay dividends, if any, on Common Shares.

The Company has no material assets other than its direct equity interest in GROC. The Company has no independent means of generating revenue. To the extent GROC has available cash, the Company will cause GROC to make distributions of cash to the Company to pay taxes, cover the Company’s corporate and other overhead expenses and pay dividends, if any, on Common Shares. To the extent that the Company needs funds and GROC fails to generate sufficient cash flow to distribute funds to the Company or is restricted from making such distributions or payments under applicable law or regulation or under the terms of its financing arrangements, or is otherwise unable to provide such funds, the Company’s liquidity and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

In the future, the Company may need to raise additional funds which may result in the dilution of shareholders, and such funds may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

The Company may need to raise additional capital in the future and may elect to issue shares or engage in fundraising activities for a variety of reasons, including funding acquisitions or growth initiatives. Shareholders may be diluted as a result of such fundraisings.

Additionally, the Company may raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities or through obtaining credit from government or financial institutions. The Company cannot be certain that additional funds will be available on favorable terms when required, or at all. If the Company cannot raise additional funds when needed, its financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. If the Company raises funds through the issuance of debt securities or through loan arrangements, the terms of such securities or loans could require significant interest payments, contain covenants that restrict the Company’s business, or other unfavorable terms.

The Company may not pay dividends or make other distributions in the future.

Historically, except in connection with the Business Combination, neither the Company nor its predecessors, has paid any dividends. The Company’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions in the future is contingent on profits and certain other factors, including the capital and operational expenditure requirements of the Company’s business. In addition, the payment of dividends is subject to the approval of the Board and even if the Company is generating profit it may choose to utilize such profit for other purposes, such as paying down debt, capital expenditures or acquisitions, instead of paying dividends. Under the ABCA, a dividend may not be declared or paid by the Company if there are reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is, or would after the payment be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due, or the realizable value of the Company’s assets would thereby be less than the aggregate of its liabilities and stated capital of all classes. Therefore, dividends may not be paid.

An active trading market may not develop or be sustained for the Common Shares.

Although the Common Shares are currently listed on the NYSE and the TSX, an active trading market for Common Shares may not develop or the price of Common Shares may not increase. There may be relatively few potential buyers or sellers of Common Shares on the NYSE or the TSX at any time. This may increase the volatility of the market price of Common Shares. It may also affect the prevailing market price at which shareholders are able to sell their Common Shares. This may result in shareholders receiving a market price for their Common Shares that is less than the value of their initial investment.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Information Form 63
![](ea028059001_ex99-1img3.jpg)

The NYSE or the TSX may delist Common Shares from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in the Common Shares and subject the Company to additional trading restrictions.

The Common Shares may not continue to be listed on the NYSE or the TSX. If this were to occur, the Company could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

a limited availability of market quotations for<br>the Common Shares;
reduced liquidity for the Common Shares;
--- ---
a limited amount of news and analyst coverage;<br>and
--- ---
a decreased ability to issue additional securities<br>or obtain additional financing in the future.
--- ---

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a United States federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” If the Common Shares are not listed on the NYSE or another United States national securities exchange, the Common Shares would not qualify as covered securities and the Company would be subject to regulation in each state in which the Company offers its Common Shares because states are not preempted from regulating the sale of securities that are not covered securities.

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

Certain financial measures in this Annual Information Form are non-GAAP financial measures or ratios. These measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. This Annual Information Form also contains supplementary financial measures and ratios. Supplementary financial measures are derived from IFRS Accounting Standards. Non-GAAP and supplementary financial measures are not intended to represent or replace measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.


Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios include: operating netback, operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts, and per barrel figures associated with non-GAAP financial measures.

Supplementary financial measures and ratiosinclude: gross profit (loss) and depletion.

While these measures are commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, the Company’s determination of these measures may not be comparable with calculations of similar measures presented by other reporting issuers.


Non-GAAP Financial Measures & Ratios


Operating Netback (including per barrel ($/bbl))and Operating Netback, excluding realized gain (loss) risk management contracts (including per barrel ($/bbl))


Operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts are financial measures widely used in the oil and gas industry as supplementary measures of a company’s efficiency and ability to generate cash flow for debt repayments, capital expenditures or other uses. When operating netback is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a non-GAAP ratio.

Operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts is comprised of gross profit (loss), plus loss on risk management contracts, less gain on risk management contracts and plus depletion expense on the Company’s operating assets. Operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts per barrel ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts by the Company’s bitumen sales volume in a specified period. Operating netback is further adjusted for realized gain (loss) risk management contracts, as appropriate. Operating netback per barrel ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing operating netback by the Company’s bitumen sales volume in a specified period.

Gross profit (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized (gain) loss on risk management contracts. See the “Additional Details of the Business – Quarterly Netback History” section in this Annual Information Form for a reconciliation of gross profit (loss) to operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts.


Supplementary Financial Measures


Gross Profit (Loss)


Gross profit (loss) is a supplementary financial measure prepared on a consistent basis with IFRS Accounting Standards. Greenfire uses gross profit (loss) to assess its core operating performance before considering other expenses such as general and administrative costs, financing costs, and income taxes. Gross profit (loss) is calculated as oil sales, net of royalties, plus gains on risk management contracts, less losses on risk management contracts, diluent expense, operating expense, depletion expense on the Company’s operating assets, transportation expenses and marketing expenses. Management believes that gross profit (loss) provides investors, analysts, and other stakeholders with useful insight into the Company’s ability to generate profitability from its core operations before non-operating expenses.

Depletion


The term “depletion” or “depletion expense” is the portion of depletion and depreciation expense reflecting the cost of development and extraction of its bitumen reserves. Management uses depletion to analyze those costs directly associated with capital cost of different property, plant and equipment types.

ABBREVIATIONS AND Conversions

Abbreviations

In this Annual Information Form, the following abbreviations have the meanings set forth below.

bbl barrels of oil
bbls/d barrels of oil or natural gas per day
boe^(1)^ barrels of oil equivalent
Mbbl thousand barrels of oil
MMbbl Millions barrel of oil
MMboe^(1)^ million barrels of oil equivalent
Mcf thousand cubic feet

Note:

(1) Greenfire has adopted the standard of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil (6 Mcf:<br>1 bbl) when converting natural gas to boe. For further information, see “Presentation of Information – Barrelsof Oil Equivalent”.

Conversions

The following table sets forth certain Standard Imperial Units and International System of Units conversions:

From To Multiply By
Mcf cubic metres 28.174
Mcf GJ 1.055
cubic metres cubic feet 35.494
bbls cubic metres 0.159
acres hectares 0.405

Note:

(1) Conversion using the above factors on rounded numbers appearing in this Annual Information Form may produce<br>small differences from reported amounts as a result of rounding.

Barrels of Oil Equivalent

Greenfire has adopted the standard of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil (6 Mcf: 1 bbl) when converting natural gas to boe. Boe and MMboe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. The foregoing conversion ratio 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 equivalent of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS

ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

Greenfire Resources Ltd.



MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROLOVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management of Greenfire Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or “Greenfire”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of our President and our Vice President, Finance we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this evaluation, management has assessed the effectiveness of Greenfire’s internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the U.S.s Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and as defined in Canada by National Instrument 52-109, Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings.  Based on our assessment, we have concluded that as of December 31, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements and even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the financial statement preparation and presentation.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report on the internal controls over financial reporting from the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm due to an exemption established by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act for “emerging growth companies” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act).

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Management, in accordance with IFRS^®^Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company. Financial and operating information presented throughout the Annual Report is consistent with that shown in the consolidated financial statements.

Management is responsible for the integrity of financial information. Internal control systems are designed and maintained to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded from loss or unauthorized use and to produce reliable accounting records for financial reporting purposes.

Deloitte LLP was appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors to express an audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements. Their examination included such tests and procedures, as they considered necessary, to provide a reasonable assurance that the consolidated financial statements are presented fairly in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB.

The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibilities for financial reporting and internal control. The Board of Directors exercises this responsibility through the Audit Committee, with assistance from the Reserves Committee regarding the annual review of our bitumen reserves. The Audit Committee meets regularly with management and the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm to ensure that management’s responsibilities are properly discharged, to review the consolidated financial statements and recommend that the consolidated financial statements be presented to the Board of Directors for approval. The Audit Committee also considers the independence of Deloitte LLP and reviews their fees. The Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm has access to the Audit Committee without the presence of management.

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Greenfire Resources Ltd.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Greenfire Resources Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

Greenfire Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or “Greenfire”) was incorporated under the laws of Alberta on December 9, 2022. These audited consolidated financial statements are comprised of the accounts of Greenfire and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in the exploration, development and operation of oil and gas properties in the Athabasca oil sands region of Alberta. Greenfire’s common shares are publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “GFR”. The Company’s corporate head office is located at 800, 350 7th Avenue SW, Calgary, AB T2P 3N9.

Throughout 2024, certain limited partnerships comprising Waterous Energy Fund and its affiliates (collectively, “WEF”), through a series of transactions acquired a total of 39,300,278 common shares and 2,654,179 common share purchase warrants of Greenfire. The final transaction in this series occurred on December 23, 2024 (the “Change of Control Transaction”), which resulted in WEF holding 56.5% of the Company’s outstanding common shares.

At December 31, 2025, approximately 72.0% of the Company’s common shares were owned by WEF following further transactions occurring in 2025.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

Preparation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS^®^Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). In these consolidated financial statements, all dollars are expressed in Canadian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency, unless otherwise indicated. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value. The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on March 12, 2026.

Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from those estimated. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimates are revised and in any future years affected. Information about certain areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that affect amounts recognized in these financial statements is as follows:

Bitumen reserves

The estimation of reserves involves the exercise of judgment. Forecasts are based on engineering data, estimated future prices, expected future rates of production and the cost and timing of future capital expenditures, all of which are subject to many uncertainties and interpretations. The Company expects that over time its reserves estimates will be revised either upward or downward based on updated information such as the results of future drilling and production. Reserves estimates can have a significant impact on net earnings, as they are a key input into the unit of production rates used for the calculation of depletion, timing of decommissioning liabilities and for determining potential asset or CGU impairment. The Company’s reserves are evaluated annually by its independent external qualified reserves evaluator.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 8

Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”)

Developed and producing assets within PP&E are depleted using the unit-of-production method based on estimated total recoverable proved plus probable reserves and future costs required to develop those reserves. There are several inherent uncertainties associated with estimating reserves. By their nature, these estimates of reserves, including the estimates of future prices and costs, and related future cash flows are subject to measurement uncertainty, and the impact on the consolidated financial statements of future periods could be material.

Identification of cash-generating units (“CGUs”)and Impairments

CGUs are defined as the lowest grouping of assets that generate identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets. The classification of assets into CGUs requires significant judgment and interpretations with respect to the integration between assets, the existence of active markets, external users, shared infrastructures, and the way in which management monitors the Company’s operations.

The recoverable amount of cash-generating units (“CGUs”) and individual assets is determined as the higher of fair value less costs of disposal (“FVLCD”) and value in use (“VIU”). Estimates of recoverable amount incorporate reserve estimates prepared in accordance with NationalInstrument 51-101: Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities, by the Company’s independent qualified reserves evaluator, as well as observable market data from recent industry transactions involving assets with similar geological and geographic characteristics.

Assumptions used in the determination of recoverable amounts are subject to change as new information becomes available. Changes in the estimated forward commodity prices, production costs, development expenditures, production rates, regulatory regimes, or energy sources could alter the economic status of reserves and result in revisions to reserve estimates.

Forward commodity price assumptions are used in the discounted cash flow models and are adjusted for quality differentials, heat content, and distance to market. Commodity prices may be affected by a range of factors, including supply and demand fundamentals, inventory levels, foreign exchange rates, weather conditions, energy sources, economic and geopolitical developments, trade policies and tariffs, global pandemics, natural disasters and related government responses. Pricing and production cost assumptions reflect legislated carbon taxes and the effect of prevailing market conditions on related compliance costs.

Income tax

The provision for income taxes is based on judgements in applying income tax law and estimates on the timing and likelihood of reversal of temporary differences between the accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The provision for income taxes is based on the Company’s interpretation of the tax legislation and regulations which are also subject to change. The Company recognizes a tax provision when a payment to tax authorities is considered more likely than not. A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Income tax filings are subject to audits and reassessments and changes in facts, circumstances and interpretations of the standards which may result in a material increase or decrease in the Company’s provision for income taxes.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 9

Decommissioning liabilities

The provision for decommissioning liabilities is based upon the current legal and constructive requirements and incorporates numerous assumptions including cost estimates, inflation rates, credit-adjusted discount rates, and settlement timing. Management reviews these requirements and assumptions at the end of each reporting period.

Cost estimates: Greenfire engages an independent third party to assist in developing and verifying cost estimates. The third party provides an independent verification of Greenfire’s asset inventory and utilizes proprietary data to provide site-specific and regional cost benchmarks. Judgment is applied in determining the point at which an asset ceases to be economically viable, incorporating long-term commodity price and cost estimates.

Settlement timing: The timing of settlement is based on the economic lives of the assets and provincial mandate regulations, including spend quotas. The estimated economic lives of the Company’s assets are determined with reference to reserve estimates prepared in accordance with National Instrument 51-101:Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities, by the Company’s independent qualified reserves evaluator.

Inflation rates: Costs are escalated based on the long-term inflation target rate.

Credit-adjusted discount rate: Estimated future cash flows, prepared on a nominal basis, are discounted at a pre-tax, credit-adjusted rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability, including the Company’s own credit risk.

The actual cost of decommissioning is uncertain, the estimates may change in response to numerous factors including changes in legal requirements, technological advances, market conditions, inflation and the timing of expected decommissioning and restoration.

Risk management contracts

The fair values of risk management contracts fluctuate depending on the underlying estimates of future commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, or credit spreads. The estimated fair value of the risk management contracts relies on external observable market data including quoted forward commodity prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The resulting fair value estimates may not be indicative of the amounts realized at settlement and as such are subject to measurement uncertainty.

Business combinations

Management is required to exercise judgment in determining whether assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. A business consists of an integrated set of assets and activities, comprised of inputs and processes, that is capable of being conducted and managed as a business by a market participant. Management also applies judgement in applying the optional concentration test to assess whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, and, accordingly, whether the transaction is an asset acquisition rather than a business combination.

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the net identifiable assets acquired are recorded at fair value. The fair value of individual assets is often required to be estimated, which may involve estimating the fair values of proved plus probable reserves, tangible assets, undeveloped land, intangible assets and other assets. These estimates incorporate assumptions using indicators of fair value, as determined by management. Changes in any of the estimates or assumptions used in determining the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired may impact the carrying values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed and could have a material impact on earnings.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 10

Long-term debt

The measurement of the current portion of long-term debt relies on management’s estimates of expected excess cash flows, as defined by the indenture governing the senior secured notes. This estimate incorporates assumptions about production levels, commodity prices, working capital changes, forecasted expenses and capital expenditures.

Warrant liability

To estimate the fair value of its warrant liability, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires that management make assumptions related to dividend yields, the expected life of the warrant, the anticipated volatility of the share price over the life of the warrant and the risk-free interest rate for the life of the warrant. Assumptions related to the warrant liability are subject to judgment and estimation uncertainty due to both internal and external market factors. Changes in assumptions can impact the fair value of the warrants.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements consist of financial records of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions, are eliminated in preparing these consolidated financial statements.

Joint arrangements

The Company undertakes certain business activities through joint arrangements. Interests in joint arrangements have been classified as joint operations. Joint control exists for contractual arrangements governing the Company’s assets whereby Greenfire has less than one hundred per cent working interest, all of the partners have control of the arrangement collectively, and spending on the project requires unanimous consent of all parties that collectively control the arrangement and share the associated risks. A joint operation is established when the Company has rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities of the arrangement. The Company only recognizes its proportionate share in assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses associated with its joint operations.

Foreign currency translation

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Canadian Dollars at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the rate of exchange on the reporting date. Any resulting exchange differences are recognized in net income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are measured at historical cost and are translated into the functional currency using the rates of exchange as at the dates of the initial transactions.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 11

Operating segments

The Company identifies its operating segments based on internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, to make decisions about resources to be allocated and assess performance. Greenfire’s chief operating decision maker is identified as the Company’s President. The Company has one reportable operating segment which is made up of its oil sands operations based on geographic location (Athabasca oil sands region of Alberta, Canada), nature of the products sold and integration of facilities and operations. The Company determines its operating segments based on the differences in the nature of operations, products sold, marketing arrangements, economic characteristics, regulatory environments and management. All of the Company’s non-current assets are located in and revenue is earned in Canada.

Financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets have expired, or when the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported on the consolidated statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts, and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The following table summarizes the method by which the Company measures its financial instruments on the consolidated statements of financial position:

Financial Instrument Classification

| Cash and cash equivalents | Amortized cost |

| Accounts receivable | Amortized cost |

| Risk management contracts | FVTPL |

| Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | Amortized cost |

| Warrant liability | FVTPL |

| Long-term debt | Amortized cost |

Financial assets and liabilities measured atamortized cost

A financial asset is classified in this category if the asset is held within a business entity whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows on specified dates that are solely payments of principal and interest. At initial recognition, financial assets at amortized cost are recognized at fair value plus transaction costs, except for trade receivables that do not have a significant financing component which are measured at transaction price. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial assets are recorded at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any impairment losses. At each reporting period an assessment is made whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired based on expected credit loss information. For the Company’s financial assets measured at amortized cost, loss allowances are determined based on the expected credit loss over the asset’s lifetime. Expected credit losses are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses, considering possible default events over the expected life of a financial asset.

If a financial liability is not measured at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), it is measured at amortized cost. For interest bearing debt, this is the fair value of the proceeds received net of transaction costs associated with the borrowing. After initial recognition, financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any transaction costs and any discount or premium on settlement.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 12

Risk management contracts

Risk management contracts executed by the Company to manage market risk are classified as FVTPL. The Company has not designated any of its financial derivative contracts as hedging instruments. The estimated fair value of these instruments is determined by reference to observable market data including commodity price curves, and foreign currency curves. Transaction costs are charged to the statements of income and comprehensive income as incurred. Realized gains and losses on risk management contracts are recorded as gains and losses in the statements of net income and comprehensive income in the period they occur. Changes in fair value of the derivative contracts are recorded as unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts in the statements of net income and comprehensive income.

Warrant liability

The warrants issued are classified as a financial liability due to their exercise features and are measured at fair value upon issuance and at each subsequent reporting period. The changes in fair value are recognized in net income. The fair value of these warrants is determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Transaction costs are charged to the statements of income and comprehensive income as incurred.

Fair value measurement

All fair value measurements used or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements are categorized using a three-level hierarchy based upon the inputs used to measure the fair value:

Level 1: Unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Significant, unobservable inputs for use when little or no market data exists, requiring a significant degree of judgment.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

At each reporting date, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing the level of classification for each asset or liability measured or disclosed at fair value. Fair values in these financial statements have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Revenue

Revenue is measured based on consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue primarily from the sale of diluted and non-diluted bitumen. Revenue is recognized when its single performance obligation is satisfied. This occurs when the product is delivered, control of the product and title or risk of loss transfers to the customer at contractually specified transfer points. This transfer coincides with title passing to the customer and the customer taking physical possession of the commodity. The Company principally satisfies its single performance obligations at a point in time. Transaction prices are determined at inception of the contract and allocated to the performance obligations identified. Payment is generally received in the following month after the sale has occurred.

The Company sells its production pursuant to fixed and variable-priced contracts. The transaction price for variable-priced contracts is based on the commodity price, adjusted for quality, location, or other factors, whereby each component of the pricing formula can be either fixed or variable, depending on the contract terms. Revenue is recognized when a unit of production is delivered to the contract counterparty. The amount of revenue recognized is based on the agreed upon transaction. Royalty expenses are recognized as production occurs.

The Company has long-term marketing agreements with a single counterparty (“Sole Petroleum Marketer”), granting exclusive marketing rights over its current assets’ production and diluent purchases until April 2026 and until October 2028 for specific assets’ production. Fees paid to the Sole Petroleum Marketer as part of these agreements are expensed as incurred as transportation and marketing expenses. As a result of these marketing agreements, the Company is exposed to concentration and credit risk.

Inventories

Inventories consist of crude oil products and warehouse materials and supplies. The carrying value of inventory includes direct and indirect expenditures incurred in the normal course of business in bringing an item or product to its existing condition and location. The Company values crude oil inventories at the lower of cost and net realizable value on a weighted average cost basis. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. If the carrying value exceeds net realizable value, a write-down is recognized. A change in circumstances could result in a reversal of the write-down for the inventory that remains on hand in a subsequent period.

Emissions liabilities and credits

Emissions liabilities are recorded in the period in which the emissions occur using the best estimate of the amount required by Greenfire to settle its obligations, including the carrying value of emissions credits held on hand, and the expected market price of additional credits required. Emissions credits purchased or internally generated for use by Greenfire are recorded at cost and are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value in inventories.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 14

Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”)

PP&E is measured at the cost to acquire, less accumulated depletion and depreciation, and net of any impairment losses. The Company begins capitalizing oil exploration costs after the right to explore has been obtained and includes land acquisition costs, geological and geophysical activities, drilling expenditures and costs incurred for the completion and testing of exploration wells. The Company capitalizes all subsequent investments attributable to the development of its oil assets if the expenditures are considered a betterment and provide a future benefit beyond one year. Costs of planned major inspections, overhaul and turnaround activities that maintain PP&E and benefit future years of operations are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the period to the next turnaround. Recurring planned maintenance activities performed on shorter intervals are expensed. Replacements of equipment are capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Company. The Company’s capitalized costs primarily consist of pad construction, drilling activities, completion activities, well equipment, processing facilities, gathering systems and pipelines. Borrowing costs attributable to long-term development projects are also capitalized.

Capitalized costs are classified as exploration and evaluation (“E&E”) assets if technical feasibility and commercial viability have not yet been established. Technical feasibility and commercial viability are generally deemed to exist when proved reserves are present and the Company has sanctioned the project for commercial development. Capitalized costs are classified as PP&E assets if they are attributable to the development of oil reserves after technical feasibility and commercial viability have been achieved. Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of E&E assets have been established, the E&E assets are tested for impairment and reclassified to PP&E. The majority of the Company’s PP&E is depleted using the unit-of-production method relative to the Company’s estimated total recoverable proved plus probable (2P) reserves. The depletion base consists of the historical net book value of capitalized costs, plus the estimated future costs required to develop the Company’s estimated recoverable proved plus probable reserves. The depletion base excludes E&E and the cost of assets that are not yet available for use in the manner intended by Management.

There were no E&E assets as at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Impairment of non-financial assets

For the purpose of estimating the asset’s recoverable amount, PP&E assets are grouped into Cash Generating Units (“CGU”). A CGU is the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets. The Company’s PP&E assets are currently grouped into a single CGU—Hangingstone.

PP&E assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If indicators of impairment exist, the recoverable amount of the asset or CGU is estimated as the greater of value-in-use (“VIU”) and fair value less costs of disposal (“FVLCOD”). VIU is estimated as the discounted present value of the expected future cash flows from continuing use of the asset or CGU. FVLCOD is the amount that would be realized from the disposition of an asset or CGU in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. An impairment loss is recognized in earnings or loss if the carrying amount of the asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.

At each reporting period, PP&E, E&E and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are tested for impairment reversal at the CGU level when facts and circumstances suggest that the recoverable amount of the CGU may exceed the carrying value. Impairment reversal is limited to the carrying amount which would have been recorded had no historical impairment been recorded.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 15

Business combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in which identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized and measured at their fair value at the date of the acquisition. If the cost of the acquisition is less than the fair value of the net asset acquired, the difference is recognized in net income. If the cost of the acquisition is greater than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is recognized as goodwill.

Provisions and contingent liabilities

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the statement of financial position date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. The Company’s provisions primarily consist of decommissioning liabilities associated with dismantling, decommissioning, and site disturbance remediation activities related to its oil assets.

At initial recognition, the Company recognizes a decommissioning asset and corresponding liability on the statements of financial position. Decommissioning liabilities are measured at the present value of expected future cash outflows required to settle the obligations at the reporting date, using management’s best estimate of expenditures required to settle the liability. Decommissioning liabilities are measured based on the estimated future inflation rate and then discounted to net present value using a credit adjusted risk-free discount rate. Any change in the present value, as a result of a change in discount rate or expected future costs, of the estimated obligation is reflected as an adjustment to the provision and the corresponding item of property, plant and equipment. The liability for decommissioning costs is increased each period through the unwinding of the discount, which is included in finance and interest costs in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Decommissioning liabilities are remeasured at each reporting period primarily to account for any changes in estimates or discount rates. Actual expenditures incurred to settle the obligations reduce the liability.

Contingent liabilities reflect a possible obligation that may arise from past events and the existence of which can only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events, not wholly within the control of the Company. Contingent liabilities are not recognized on the statements of financial position unless they can be measured reliably and the possibility of an outflow of economic benefits in respect of the contingent obligation is considered probable. Disclosure of contingent liabilities is provided when there is a less than probable, but more than remote, possibility of material loss to the Company.

Leases

A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. A lease obligation and corresponding ROU asset are recognized at the commencement of the lease. Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the unavoidable lease payments and discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate when an implicit rate in the lease is not readily available. Interest expense is recognized on the lease obligations using the effective interest rate method. The ROU assets are recognized at the amount of the lease liabilities, adjusted for lease incentives received and initial direct costs, on commencement of the leases. ROU assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term. Depreciation on the ROU assets is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Where appropriate, depreciation charges to the ROU assets may be capitalized as additions to PP&E. The Company is required to make judgements and assumptions on incremental borrowing rates and lease terms. The carrying balance of the leased assets and lease liabilities, and related interest and depreciation expense, may differ due to changes in market conditions and expected lease terms. Short-term and low value leases have not been included in the measurement of lease liabilities.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 16

Income taxes

Income tax is comprised of current and deferred tax. Income tax recovery (expense) is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income except to the extent that it relates to share capital, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current tax is the expected tax payable (receivable) on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and does not affect profit, other than temporary differences that arise in shareholder’s equity. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset on the consolidated statements of financial position if there is a legally enforceable right to offset and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority. A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are not recognized until such time that it is more likely than not that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Stock-based compensation

The Company has outstanding share awards issued under legacy stock-based incentive plans including restricted share units (“RSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”). Performance warrants (“PWs”) and deferred share units (“DSUs”) were also issued under these legacy plans; however, no PWs or DSUs were outstanding as at December 31, 2025. The Company does not expect to grant further share awards.

RSUs and PSUs can be settled in either cash or shares issued from treasury, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors intends to settle all incentive units with shares issued from treasury, therefore the share awards have been accounted for as equity-settled compensation. Equity-settled awards may be settled net of shares withheld to satisfy the holders’ statutory tax withholding obligations.

The grant date fair value of share awards is estimated using the Company’s prevailing share price and assumptions relating to the risk-free interest rate, expected award life, expected volatility, and expected dividend yield. The number of awards expected to vest is revised at each reporting date to reflect management’s expectations for the outcome of service and non-market performance conditions.

Greenfire Resources Ltd. 2025 Annual Financial Statements 17

The equity-settled share awards are expensed over the vesting period of the grants, with a corresponding increase to contributed surplus. When exercised, any cash proceeds along with the amount previously recorded as contributed surplus are recorded as share capital.

Per share information

Basic per share information is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted per share information is calculated using the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for the number of shares that could have had a dilutive effect on net income during the year had in the-money and outstanding equity compensation units been exercised.

Standards issued but not effective

IFRS 18 ‘Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements’ was issued in April 2024 by IASB and replaces IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’. The standard introduces defined structure to the Statement of Comprehensive Income with related specific disclosure requirements. IFRS 18 is effective January 1, 2027 and is required to be adopted retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the impact of IFRS 18 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

At December 31, 2025, Greenfire evaluated its PP&E for indicators of impairment and determined that no indicators were present.

On February 22, 2024, Greenfire acquired natural gas assets in the Hangingstone area for consideration of $2.5 million. This acquisition resulted in an increase in PP&E of $12.7 million, including $10.2 million of future decommissioning obligations. On April 19, 2024, Greenfire acquired heavy oil assets in the Athabasca region of Northern Alberta for consideration of $1.9 million. This acquisition resulted in an increase in PP&E of $4.2 million, including $2.3 million of future decommissioning obligations. The Company applied the optional IFRS 3 concentration test to these acquisitions which resulted in the acquired assets being accounted for as asset acquisitions.

7. LONG-TERM DEBT

Senior Credit Facility

Greenfire has a reserve-based credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) comprised of a $30.0 million operating facility and a $245.0 million syndicated facility, providing total committed credit of $275.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $50.0 million), with a maturity date of November 30, 2027. The Senior Credit Facility’s borrowing base is subject to a semi-annual review, occurring in May and November each year, and is established based on the lenders’ evaluation of the Company’s bitumen reserves, incorporating their prevailing commodity price assumptions. As at December 31, 2025, there were no amounts drawn on the Senior Credit Facility (December 31, 2024 – no amounts drawn).

The Senior Credit Facility is available on a revolving basis, may be drawn in Canadian or U.S. dollars, and bears interest at floating rates based on applicable Canadian or U.S. benchmark rates^(1)^, plus applicable margins. The applicable margin is determined on a quarterly basis by reference to the Company’s trailing twelve-month Debt to EBITDA Ratio^(2)^. The undrawn portion of the Senior Credit Facility is subject to a standby fee.

The Senior Credit Facility is secured by a first-priority security interest over substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Senior Credit Facility contains customary restrictive covenants that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create or permit liens to exist, pay dividends, redeem stock, and sell assets. The Senior Credit Facility is not subject to any financial covenants.

(1) Benchmark rates available include the Canadian prime rate,<br>U.S. base rate, Canadian overnight repo rate average, and the secured overnight financing rate.
(2) As defined in the Senior Credit Facility Agreement.

Senior Secured Notes

On September 20, 2023, Greenfire issued US$300 million of senior secured notes (the “2028 Notes”). The 2028 Notes bore interest at a fixed rate of 12.00%, were to mature on October 1, 2028, and were secured by a second-priority lien on the Company’s assets. On December 19, 2025, the outstanding 2028 Notes were voluntarily redeemed at 106% of their principal amount. All accrued interest on the 2028 Notes was settled concurrently.

The indenture governing the Company’s 2028 Notes (the “2028 Indenture”) included the following key terms and restrictions:

a<br>requirement to maintain financial hedges for at least 50% of forecasted production^(^^3)^<br>for the forward twelve-month period;
a<br>limitation on annual capital expenditures of US$150^(^^4)^<br>million;
--- ---
restrictions<br>on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create or permit liens, pay dividends, redeem equity, make certain restricted<br>payments, and dispose of assets; and
--- ---
a<br>requirement to apply a portion of its Excess Cash Flow^(^^5)^<br>every six months to redeem the 2028 Notes at 105% of the principal amount (the “ECF Sweep”) until the outstanding principal<br>balance was reduced to US$100 million.
--- ---

As a result of a Change of Control Transaction (Note 1), Greenfire was required to make an offer (the “Offer”) to repurchase the 2028 Notes, or a portion thereof, at 101% of the outstanding principal amount. As at December 31, 2024, the portion of the 2028 Notes held by noteholders who agreed not to participate in the Offer was classified as a non-current liability. The remaining balance was classified as a current liability, as settlement of those amounts was not within the Company’s control.

Letter of Credit Facility

Greenfire maintains a separate $55 million letter of credit facility with a financial institution that is supported by Export Development Canada’s Account Performance Security Guarantee program (the “EDC APSG Facility”). The EDC APSG Facility is available on a demand basis. As at December 31, 2025, the Company had $54.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $54.0 million) in letters of credit outstanding under the EDC APSG Facility. Letters of credit issued under the EDC APSG Facility do not reduce Greenfire’s borrowing capacity under the Senior Credit Facility.

(3) Forecasted production is defined by the 2028 Indenture as<br>the Company’s proved developed producing (“PDP”) forecast in the Company’s most recent reserve report, as determined<br>by a qualified and independent reserves evaluator, as prepared to the Canadian standard using National Instrument 51-101.
(4) On March 10, 2025, the Company completed an amendment to<br>the 2028 Indenture to increase the annual capital expenditure limitation from CAD$100 million to US$150 million, until the outstanding<br>principal amount of the 2028 Notes is less than US$150 million.

Present value of net minimum lease payments $ 6,105 $ 9,310
9. DECOMMISSIONING LIABILITIES
--- ---

The Company’s decommissioning liabilities result from net ownership interests in petroleum assets including well sites, gathering systems and processing facilities. In 2024, the Company acquired certain natural gas and heavy oil assets in the Athabasca region of Northern Alberta and recognized $12.5 million of future decommissioning obligations. The Company estimates the total undiscounted escalated amount of cash flows required to settle its decommissioning liabilities to be approximately $342.8 million (December 31, 2024 - $340.8 million). For the year ended December 31, 2025, a credit-adjusted discount rate of 10.0% (December 31, 2024 -10.5%) and an inflation rate of 2.0% (December 31, 2024 - 2.0%) were used to calculate the decommissioning liabilities. A 1.0% change in the credit-adjusted discount rate would impact the discounted value of the decommissioning liabilities by approximately $3.9 million with a corresponding adjustment to PP&E. The decommissioning liabilities are estimated to be settled in periods up to year 2078, with the majority being incurred between 2047 and 2078.

A reconciliation of the decommissioning liabilities is provided below:

10. WARRANT LIABILITY

On September 20, 2023, the Company issued approximately 7.5 million warrants. Each warrant was initially exercisable for one common share of Greenfire at an exercise price of USD$11.50 per share. In connection with the Rights Offering completed on December 19, 2025 (Note 11), the warrants were adjusted to be exercisable for 1.171 common shares at an exercise price of USD$9.82 per share.

The outstanding warrants expire on September 19, 2028, and contain a cashless exercise feature, permitting an exercise without the payment of the exercise price by the issuance of a net, lower number of common shares. The warrants are remeasured to their fair value at each reporting period with the change recognized through the statement of comprehensive income. The following table reconciles the warrant liability.

For the year ended, December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024

On December 17, 2025, Greenfire completed a rights offering of its common shares to its shareholders (the “Rights Offering”). The Rights Offering resulted in the issuance of approximately 55.1 million common shares for gross proceeds of $298.7 million. WEF provided a standby commitment to backstop the Rights Offering by agreeing to acquire any common shares not subscribed for under the Rights Offering. The standby commitment was not utilized as the Rights offering was oversubscribed. WEF did not receive any compensation in connection with the standby commitment. Greenfire incurred share issuance costs of $2.7 million, net of $0.8 million of tax, associated with this transaction.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market conditions, such as commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates, will affect the Company’s cash flow, income, or the value of its financial instruments.

Commodity Price Risk

The Company’s risk management program is designed to reduce the volatility of revenue and cash flow, generate sufficient cash flows to service debt obligations, and fund the Company’s operations. The Company’s risk management liabilities may consist of hedging instruments such as fixed price swaps and option structures, including costless collars on WTI, WCS differentials, condensate differential, natural gas and electricity swaps. The Company does not use financial derivatives for speculative purposes.

The Company’s commodity price risk management program does not involve margin accounts that require posting of margin with increased volatility in underlying commodity prices. Financial risk management contracts are measured at fair value, with gains and losses on re-measurement included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.

The Company’s financial risk management contracts are subject to master netting agreements that create the legal right to settle the instruments on a net basis.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on U.S. Dollar denominated cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivables, risk management contracts, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, and long-term debt. As at December 31, 2025, Greenfire’s net foreign exchange risk exposure was a US$9.3 million asset (December 31, 2024 – US$218.4 million liability), and a 10% change in the foreign exchange rate would result in a $1.3 million change in the foreign exchange gain or loss (December 31, 2024 - $31.4 million).

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to borrowings drawn under the Senior Credit Facility, as the interest charged on the credit facility fluctuates with floating interest rates. Currently no amounts are drawn on the Senior Credit Facility. Any letters of credit issued are subject to fixed interest rates and are not exposed to changes in interest rates.

Credit Risk

As at December 31 <br> ($ thousands) 2025 2024
Trade receivables $ 32,482 $ 47,412
Joint interest receivables 19,719 4,655
Accrued joint interest receivables 13,985 4,350
Accounts receivable $ 66,186 $ 56,417

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s accounts receivable. The Company is primarily exposed to credit risk from receivables associated with its oil sales. The Company manages its credit risk exposure by transacting with high-quality credit worthy counterparties and monitoring credit worthiness and/or credit ratings on an ongoing basis. Trade receivables from oil sales are generally collected on the 25th day of the month following production. Joint interest receivables are typically collected within one to three months of the invoice being issued. Accrued joint interest receivables represent the Company’s partners’ share of operating, and capital costs incurred or accrued at the reporting date that have not yet been invoiced. All risk management contracts are held with large financial institutions. The Company has not previously experienced any material credit losses on the collection of accounts receivable.

At December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024 the Company was exposed to concentration risk associated with its outstanding trade receivables and joint interest receivables balances. Of the Company’s trade receivables at December 31, 2025, 86% was receivable from three companies (December 31, 2024- 99% receivable from a single company). At December 31, 2025, 100% of the Company’s joint interest receivables and accrued joint interest receivables were held by a single company (December 31, 2024- 100% by a single company). Maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of accounts receivable on the statements of financial position. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company has received $18.0 million from its joint interest partner.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient available reserves to meet its financial obligations at any point in time. The Company expects to achieve this objective through prudent capital spending, an active commodity risk management program and through strategies such as continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities, and available credit facilities. Management believes that future cash flows generated from these sources will be adequate to settle Greenfire’s financial liabilities.

The following table details the Company’s contractual maturities of its financial liabilities at December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

DESCRIPTIONOF BUSINESS


Greenfire is an oil sands producer focused on the development of its long-life and low-decline thermal oil assets in the Athabasca region of Alberta, Canada, with its registered offices in Calgary, Alberta. Greenfire plans to leverage its large resource base and significant infrastructure in place to drive meaningful, capital-efficient production growth. As part of the Company’s commitment to operational excellence, safe and reliable operations remain a top priority for Greenfire.

Greenfire’s common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “GFR”.

Throughout 2024, certain limited partnerships comprising Waterous Energy Fund and its affiliates (collectively, “WEF”), through a series of transactions acquired 56.5% of the Company’s outstanding common shares. The final transaction in this series occurred on December 23, 2024 (the “Change of Control Transaction”). At December 31, 2025, approximately 72.0% of the Company’s common shares were owned by WEF following further transactions occurring in 2025.

GREENFIRE’SASSETS AND STRATEGY


Greenfire’s principal assets are the Hangingstone Facilities. The Hangingstone Facilities consist of two Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (“SAGD”) oil production facilities: the Expansion Asset and the Demo Asset. Located approximately 50 kilometers south of Fort McMurray, Alberta, these facilities are operated by Greenfire, with the Company holding a 75% working interest in the Expansion Asset and a 100% working interest in the Demo Asset.

The Company’s strategic objective is to manage and enhance its asset portfolio to maximize long-term net asset value per share for Greenfire shareholders. This goal is expected to be achieved by investing in proven, industry-standard SAGD optimization techniques at the Hangingstone Facilities, which are designed to increase production levels to leverage existing facility spare capacities, while maintaining disciplined control over its operating cost structures.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Drilling Operations

In the fourth quarter of 2025, Greenfire commenced drilling operations at Pad 7, its inaugural SAGD well pad at the Expansion Asset. Pad 7 is comprised of 14 well pairs and is located northeast of the Expansion Asset’s Central Processing Facility, adjacent to existing production. First oil from Pad 7 is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026. The Company plans additional drilling from existing pads in 2026, including a redrill on Pad 6 with first oil expected in late 2026 and three new well pairs from Pad 5 with first oil anticipated in 2027. Following encouraging results from Greenfire’s 2026 oil sands exploration well program to date, the Company’s next SAGD well pad, Pad 8, is expected to comprise eight well pairs, with drilling anticipated to commence in the first quarter of 2027.

At the Demo Asset, two production wells that had been shut-in prior to 2018 were redrilled in the fourth quarter of 2025. Incremental production from these wells is expected later in the first half of 2026. Operational efforts at the Demo Asset remain focused on base production optimization.

Production and Steam Generation Updates

Greenfire’s average production for January and February 2026 was approximately 15,440 bbls/d and 14,330 bbls/d, respectively. While production from the Demo Asset has exceeded expectations year-to-date due to continued optimization of base well performance, production from the Expansion Asset is currently below the Company's projections, principally due to unplanned downtime associated with a highly productive well. This well has since been redrilled and is scheduled to be back online in March 2026. Regarding the previously disclosed refurbishment of the second steam generator at the Expansion Asset, this project was successfully completed at year-end 2025. With full steam capacity resumed at the Expansion Asset, Greenfire is currently working to restore production.

Regulatory Engagement and Installationof Sulphur Removal Facilities


In the fourth quarter of 2025, Greenfire completed the installation and commissioning of sulphur removal facilities at the Expansion Asset. These facilities are now fully operational, and the Company has restored compliance with regulatory limits for sulphur dioxide emissions.

Refinancing Initiatives

Greenfire completed its previously announced refinancing initiatives on December 19, 2025, including the issuance of 55.1 million common shares under a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) for gross proceeds of $298.7 million and the redemption of all outstanding 12.00% senior secured notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”). Refer to the “Capital Resources and Liquidity” section in this MD&A for additional details.

In light of the unplanned well downtime at the Expansion Asset during the first quarter of 2026, in conjunction with slightly steeper-than-anticipated base production decline rates, Greenfire is lowering its 2026 production guidance. As previously publicized, the Expansion Asset has been historically undercapitalized with no new well-pairs drilled at the asset since 2017, resulting in the existing base production well-pairs approaching higher recovery factors. Encouragingly, Greenfire has budgeted for 25 new well-pairs across three new SAGD pads to be spud over the following twelve months, and the recent late-life base production challenges at the Expansion Asset bear no impact on the estimated production performance of our growth capital program.

Greenfire’s oil sales include both bitumen blended with diluent, which is transported by pipeline, and a smaller portion of undiluted bitumen, which is trucked to a sales point.

Bitumen production decreased 19% (or 3,685 bbl/d) and 16% (or 3,123 bbl/d) for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, when compared to the same periods of 2024. These decreases were attributable to the Expansion Asset operating at reduced capacity due to the unplanned loss of a steam generation unit in the first quarter of 2025, combined with natural field declines. Steam generation capacity was fully restored in December 2025.

WCSHardisty


WCS is a blend of heavy crude oils that serves as the pricing benchmark for Canadian heavy oil at Hardisty, Alberta. Greenfire’s bitumen sales revenue is most directly correlated to WCS pricing. WCS is priced at a discount to WTI, with this difference referred to as the WCS differential. The WCS differential is subject to variability driven by factors such as production volumes, egress capacity, scheduled infrastructure maintenance, refinery demand, and other market conditions in Western Canada.

Condensate


The Company uses condensate, sourced from the Edmonton area, as a blending diluent to facilitate the transportation of its produced bitumen. The price of condensate has historically been correlated to the price of WTI.

Royalties consist of crown royalties on bitumen production paid to the Province of Alberta, based on government prescribed royalty rates. Royalty rates are based on and adjust with the Canadian dollar equivalent WTI benchmark price.

The effective royalty rate was 5.12% and 5.72% during the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to 6.16% and 7.06% for the same respective periods in 2024. The lower effective royalty rate reflects the decline in the Canadian denominated WTI benchmark price.

Realizedand Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Risk Management Contracts

Three months ended<br><br>December 31, Year ended<br><br>December 31,
($ thousands) 2025 2024 2025 2024
Realized gain (loss) 13,458 1,024 31,315 (27,658 )
Unrealized gain (loss) (1,984 ) (9,945 ) 11,264 169
Risk management contracts gains (losses) 11,474 (8,921 ) 42,579 (27,489 )

Greenfire uses risk management contracts to protect its cash flows against volatility in commodity prices. Financial contracts settled in the period result in realized gains or losses based on the market price compared to the contract price and the notional volume outstanding.

During the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized realized gains of $13.5 million and $31.3 million, respectively, compared to a realized gain of $1.0 million and a realized loss of $27.7 million for the same periods of 2024. Realized gains occur when the average price of the hedged commodity settles below the contract price, while realized losses occur in the opposite scenario. Generally, realized gains and losses on risk management contracts resulting from fluctuations in energy prices are largely offset by an inverse gain or loss on physical sales or purchases.

As the forward markets for commodities fluctuate, changes in the fair value of unsettled financial contracts are reported as unrealized gains or losses. When adjusting the risk management contracts to their fair value on December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized a non-cash unrealized loss of $2.0 million in the three months there ended compared to a non-cash unrealized loss of $9.9 million for the same quarter of 2024. The unrealized gain on risk management contracts for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $11.3 million compared to $0.2 million for the same period of 2024.

(1) Represents<br> the differential between the cost of purchased condensate and the sales value recovered on<br> those same volumes when sold as diluted bitumen. Computed as oil sales minus diluent expense,<br> divided by barrels of bitumen sold, with oil sales per barrel then subtracted.

To facilitate the transportation of bitumen, the Company uses condensate as a blending diluent. Greenfire’s diluent expense includes the cost of condensate and its associated transportation costs. Diluent expense per barrel represents the differential between the cost of purchased condensate and the sales value recovered on those same volumes when sold as diluted bitumen at the point of sale.

Diluent expense per barrel decreased by 18% (or $2.06/bbl) to $9.71/bbl for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $11.77/bbl for the same period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, diluent expense per barrel declined by 13% (or $1.52/bbl) to $10.23/bbl compared to $11.75/bbl for the same period in 2024. These decreases reflect a higher proportion of undiluted bitumen sales within total sales and a lower price differential between WCS and Edmonton Condensate (C5+) (see “Production and Commodity Pricing – Commodity Prices” section of this MD&A).

Transportationand Marketing Expense

Transportation and marketing (/bbl) 8.18 7.34 8.52 7.43

All values are in US Dollars.

Transportation expenses include the costs to move bitumen between the Hangingstone assets and to the sales points. Marketing fees relate to exclusive marketing contracts with a reputable international energy marketing company. These exclusive marketing contracts are expected to expire between April 2026 and October 2028.

Transportation and marketing expense per barrel increased 11% (or $0.84/bbl) for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to $8.18/bbl compared to $7.34/bbl in the same quarter of 2024. Transportation and marketing expense per barrel increased by 15% (or $1.09/bbl) for the year ended December 31, 2025, to $8.52/bbl compared to $7.43/bbl for the year ended December 31, 2024. These increases were mainly due to higher long-haul trucking costs associated with selling a greater proportion of bitumen on an undiluted basis.

(1) In<br> 2025, Greenfire revised the classification of certain costs between energy and non-energy<br> operating expenses based on their underlying nature. Comparative figures have been adjusted<br> to conform to the current period presentation. This reclassification had no impact on total<br> operating expenses.

Operating expenses include both energy operating expenses and non-energy operating expenses.

Energy<br> operating expenses include the cost of natural gas for steam generation and non-condensable<br> gas (“NCG”) co-injection, electricity for facility operations, and carbon taxes.<br> NCG is used to manage reservoir pressure and improve recovery.
Non-energy<br> operating expenses relate to production-related operating activities, including staff, contractors<br> and associated travel and camp costs, chemicals, insurance, equipment rentals, maintenance<br> and site administration, among other costs.

![](ea028059001_ex99-3img3.jpg)

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, operating expenses decreased 33% (or $13.5 million) to $27.3 million compared to $40.9 million in the same quarter of 2024. Energy operating costs decreased 33% (or $4.6 million) to $9.4 million compared to $13.9 million in the same quarter of 2024. This decrease is attributable to the loss of steam generation capacity, discussed above, and lower bitumen production. Non-energy operating expenses decreased 33% (or $9.0 million) to $18.0 million compared to $26.9 million in the same quarter of 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to an inventory build that deferred costs into the first quarter of 2026, lower employee costs, and the timing of the annual turnaround at the Demo Asset, which occurred in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, operating expenses decreased 16% (or $23.9 million) to $129 million compared to $152.9 million in 2024. Energy operating costs decreased 31% (or $15.1 million) to $33.5 million compared to $48.5 million in 2024. This decrease is attributable to the loss of steam generation capacity, discussed above, and lower bitumen production. Non-energy operating costs decreased by 8% (or $8.8 million) to $95.5 million compared to $104.3 million in 2024. This decrease was mainly driven by lower maintenance and well-servicing costs. In 2024, Greenfire incurred approximately $4.4 million to replace failed downhole temperature sensors.

Depletionand Depreciation Expenses

- (/bbl) 15.23 15.37 14.27 11.42

All values are in US Dollars.

The Company’s depletion and depreciation decreased 23% (or $6.7 million) for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. This decrease is consistent with the reduction in production volumes.

The Company’s depletion and depreciation expense increased by 3% (or $2.6 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, despite a 16% decrease in production volumes. The increase reflects revisions to forecasted development costs for Greenfire’s undeveloped reserves.

Operating netback per barrel increased 7% (or $2.33/bbl) for the year ended December 31, 2025, to $34.82/bbl compared to $32.49/bbl in the same period of 2024. The increases in the 2025 periods were the result of higher realized gains on risk management contracts, as well as lower diluent and operating expenses per barrel, partially offset by lower realized oil sales per barrel.

Gross profit increased by $0.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to $27.1 million, compared to $26.5 million in the same quarter of 2024. The increase was driven by gains on risk management contracts and lower expenses, partially offset by lower oil sales.

Gross profit decreased by $17.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, to $131.9 million compared to $149.8 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower oil sales, partially offset by gains on risk management contracts and lower expenses.

G&A expenses include head office and corporate costs such as salaries and employee benefits, legal fees, audit and tax-related fees and other professional services, and may also include expenses related to corporate strategic initiatives if any, among other costs.

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, G&A expenses decreased by 60% (or $5.6 million) to $3.8 million compared to $9.3 million for the same period of 2024. This decrease reflects $6.7 million of one-time costs incurred in the fourth quarter of 2024 related to the evaluation of strategic alternatives and the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, which was subsequently terminated, partially offset by the introduction of a new employee incentive structure consisting solely of an enhanced annual cash bonus, which replaced the prior omnibus share incentive plan in January 2025. Refer to the “Stock-Based Compensation” section of this MD&A for further information.

G&A expenses remained relatively consistent for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 2024. G&A expenses in 2024 included $7.7 million of one-time costs related to the evaluation of strategic alternatives and the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, which was subsequently terminated. In 2025, G&A expenses include a one-time expense of $2.0 million to WEF to reimburse costs incurred in connection with its successful challenge of the Company’s adoption of a shareholders’ rights plan (see “Related Party Transaction”). The offsetting increase in 2025 is attributable to the new cash-based incentive structure described above.

The stock-based compensation expense relates to share awards issued under the omnibus share incentive plan (the “Incentive Plan”) adopted in February 2024. The Company’s Board of Directors suspended further grants under the Incentive Plan as the Company’s incentive compensation plan will comprise solely of an annual cash bonus. The remaining awards will be expensed over their vesting periods.

Financingand Interest Expenses

Three months ended<br><br>December 31, Year ended<br><br>December 31,

Interest expenses 9,342 10,794 41,013 46,906
Financing expenses 28,823 2,062 36,557 14,554
Financing and interest expenses 38,165 12,856 77,570 61,460

Interest expenses include cash-settled interest on the 2028 Notes, Senior Credit Facility, EDC Facility, and other related charges. Interest expenses decreased by 13% for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the corresponding periods in 2024. This decrease was driven by a series of repayments of the 2028 Notes, including $84.3 million (US$61.0 million) in July 2024.

Financing expenses include the amortization of debt issuance costs, redemption premiums on the 2028 Notes, accretion of lease liability and accretion of decommissioning liabilities. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, financing expense increased by $26.8 million to $28.8 million compared to $2.1 million for the same quarter of 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2025, financing expenses increased by $22.0 million to $36.6 million compared to $14.6 million for the same period of 2024. These increases primarily reflect the voluntary early redemption of the 2028 Notes at 106% of their principal amount and the associated expensing of the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discount.

Refer to the “Capital Resources and Liquidity” section in this MD&A for definitions and more details of Greenfire’s long-term debt, revolving credit facility and EDC Facility.

ExplorationExpenses


The Company’s exploration expenses primarily consist of escalating mineral lease rentals on undeveloped lands. During the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, exploration expenses were $0.5 million and $2.2 million respectively, compared to $0.1 million and $1.8 million for the same respective periods in 2024.

OtherIncome


Other income primarily consists of interest earned on the Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances. The Company’s other income for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, was $0.9 million and $3.4 million respectively, compared to $1.6 million and $5.0 million for the same respective periods in 2024. The decreases were attributable to lower average cash and cash equivalent balances during the three months and year ended December 31, 2025.

ForeignExchange Loss (Gain)


The Company’s foreign exchange loss (gain) is driven by fluctuations in the US dollar to Canadian dollar exchange rate and was primarily related to the principal and interest components of the Company’s US dollar denominated debt.

In the three months ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recorded a foreign exchange gain of $2.7 million compared to a loss of $18.6 million for the comparative period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recorded a foreign exchange gain of $11.7 million, compared to a loss of $26.1 million for the comparative period in 2024. These variances were primarily driven by the revaluation of the US$-denominated 2028 Notes, reflecting the impact of fluctuations in the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar.

Loss(Gain) on Revaluation of Warrants


On September 20, 2023, the Company issued approximately 7.5 million warrants. Each warrant was initially exercisable for one common share of Greenfire at an exercise price of USD$11.50 per share. In connection with the Rights Offering closed on December 17, 2025, the warrants were adjusted to be exercisable for 1.171 common shares at an exercise price of USD$9.82 per share. Refer to the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Rights Offering” section of this MD&A for additional details.

The warrants contain a cashless exercise feature, permitting settlement without the cash payment of the exercise price via the issuance of a net number of common shares. This cashless exercise feature results in the warrants being treated as a financial liability and necessitates their remeasurement at each reporting period.

Upon remeasurement of the warrants to fair value, the Company recognized a loss of $0.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to a gain of $7.0 million in the same period of 2024. The loss in the current period primarily reflects the adjustment to the exercise price discussed above. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a gain of $14.2 million compared to a gain of $0.3 million in the comparative period. The gain recognized in 2025 is attributable to the decline in the Company’s common share price at December 31, 2025, relative to December 31, 2024.

Taxes


Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that the realization of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable based on current tax pools and estimated future income. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized a deferred income tax recovery of $3.9 million compared to a recovery of $84.9 million for the same period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized a deferred income tax expense of $7.8 million compared to a deferred tax recovery of $84.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The significant recovery recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024 was due to the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred income tax assets. No comparable recognition occurred in 2025, resulting in the period-over-period variance.

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire experienced a net loss of $8.6 million compared to a net income of $78.6 million in the same quarter of 2024, a decrease of $87.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire generated net income of $47.5 million, compared to a net income of $121.4 million in the same period in 2024, a decrease of $73.9 million. These decreases represent the cumulative effect of the factors discussed above.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased 25% (or $15.6 million) for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to $46.9 million compared to $62.5 million for the same quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 15% (or $32.8 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, to $180.8 million compared to $213.6 million for the same period of 2024. The decline was primarily attributable to lower sales volumes and weaker realized pricing. Although operating netback per barrel improved year-over-year, the impact of reduced production volumes outweighed these per-barrel gains.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks that arise as a result of its exploration, development, production and financing activities. These risks include market risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk. Market risk is the risk that changes in market conditions, such as commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates, will affect the Company’s cash flow, income, or the value of its financial instruments.

CommodityPrice Risk

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk on its oil sales, diluent expense and energy operating costs due to fluctuations in market prices. The Company continues to execute a risk management program that is primarily designed to reduce the volatility of revenue and cash flow, generate sufficient cash flows to service any debt obligations and fund the Company’s operations. The Company’s risk management liabilities may consist of hedging instruments such as fixed price swaps and option structures, including costless collars on WTI, WCS differential, condensate differential, natural gas and electricity swaps. The Company does not use financial derivatives for speculative purposes.

The Company’s risk management program does not involve margin accounts that require posting of margin, including in scenarios of increased volatility in underlying commodity prices. Financial risk management contracts are measured at fair value, with gains and losses on re-measurement included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) in the period in which they arise.

ForeignExchange Risk


The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk consists of US Dollar denominated cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, risk management contracts, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, and, to the extent that the Senior Credit Facility is drawn in US dollars, long-term debt. As at December 31, 2025, Greenfire’s net foreign exchange risk exposure was a US$9.3 million asset, and a 10% change in the foreign exchange rate would result in a $1.3 million change in the foreign exchange gain or loss.

InterestRate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to borrowings drawn under the Senior Credit Facility, as the interest charged on the credit facility fluctuates with floating interest rates. Currently no amounts are drawn on the Senior Credit Facility. Any letters of credit issued are subject to fixed interest rates and are not exposed to changes in interest rates.

CreditRisk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s accounts receivable. The Company is primarily exposed to credit risk from receivables associated with its oil sales and joint interest partners.

The Company manages its credit risk exposure by transacting with high-quality credit worthy counterparties and monitoring credit worthiness and/or credit ratings on an ongoing basis. Trade receivables from oil sales are generally collected on the 25th day of the month following production. Joint interest receivables are typically collected within one to three months of the invoice being issued. All risk management contracts are held with large financial institutions. The Company has not previously experienced any material credit losses on the collection of accounts receivable.

LiquidityRisk


Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient available reserves to meet its financial obligations at any point in time. The Company expects to achieve this objective through prudent capital spending, an active commodity risk management program and through strategies such as continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities, and available credit facilities. Management believes that future cash flows generated from these sources will be adequate to settle Greenfire’s financial liabilities.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The Company’s capital management objective is to maintain financial flexibility and sufficient liquidity to execute on planned capital programs, while meeting short and long-term commitments. The Company strives to actively manage its capital structure in response to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying oilsands assets. At December 31, 2025, the Company’s capital structure consists of working capital surplus (deficit), long-term debt and shareholders’ equity. Management believes its current capital resources and its ability to manage cash flow and working capital levels will allow the Company to meet its current and future obligations~~,~~ and to fund the other needs of the business.

RightsOffering


On December 17, 2025, Greenfire completed a rights offering of its common shares to its shareholders. The Rights Offering resulted in the issuance of approximately 55.1 million common shares for gross proceeds of $298.7 million. WEF provided a standby commitment to backstop the Rights Offering by agreeing to acquire any common shares not subscribed for under the Rights Offering. The standby commitment was not utilized as the Rights Offering was oversubscribed. WEF did not receive any compensation in connection with the standby commitment. Greenfire incurred share issuance costs of $2.7 million, net of $0.8 million of tax, associated with this transaction.

SeniorCredit Facility


Greenfire has a reserve-based credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) comprised of a $30.0 million operating facility and a $245.0 million syndicated facility, providing total committed credit of $275.0 million, with a maturity date of November 30, 2027. The Senior Credit Facility’s borrowing base is subject to a semi-annual review, occurring in May and November each year, and is established based on the lenders’ evaluation of the Company’s bitumen reserves, incorporating their prevailing commodity price assumptions. As at December 31, 2025, there were no amounts drawn on the Senior Credit Facility.

| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 12 |

| --- | --- |

![](ea028059001_ex99-3img3.jpg)

The Senior Credit Facility is available on a revolving basis, may be drawn in Canadian or U.S. dollars, and bears interest at floating rates based on applicable Canadian or U.S. benchmark rates^(1)^, plus applicable margins. The applicable margin is determined on a quarterly basis by reference to the Company’s trailing twelve-month Debt to EBITDA Ratio^(2)^. The undrawn portion of the Senior Credit Facility is subject to a standby fee.

The Senior Credit Facility is secured by a first-priority security interest over substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Senior Credit Facility contains customary restrictive covenants that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create or permit liens to exist, pay dividends, redeem stock, and sell assets. The Senior Credit Facility is not subject to any financial covenants.

Letterof Credit Facility

Greenfire maintains a separate $55 million letter of credit facility with a financial institution that is supported by Export Development Canada’s Account Performance Security Guarantee program (the “EDC APSG Facility”). The EDC APSG Facility is available on a demand basis. As at December 31, 2025, the Company had $54.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $54.0 million) in letters of credit outstanding under the EDC APSG Facility. Letters of credit issued under the EDC APSG Facility do not reduce Greenfire’s borrowing capacity under the Senior Credit Facility.

SeniorSecured Notes

On September 20, 2023, Greenfire issued US$300 million of senior secured notes. The 2028 Notes bore interest at a fixed rate of 12.00%, were to mature on October 1, 2028, and were secured by a second-priority lien on the Company’s assets. On December 19, 2025, the outstanding 2028 Notes were voluntarily redeemed at 106% of their principal amount. All accrued interest on the 2028 Notes was settled concurrently.

As the result of a Change of Control Transaction (see “Description of Business” section in this MD&A), Greenfire was required to make an offer to repurchase the 2028 Notes, or a portion thereof. As at December 31, 2024, the portion of the 2028 Notes held by noteholders who agreed not to participate in the Offer was classified as a non-current liability. The remaining balance was classified as a current liability, as settlement of those amounts was not within the Company’s control.

As of December 31, 2025, working capital increased to a surplus of $53.4 million, compared to a deficit of $191.6 million at December 31, 2024, representing an improvement of $245.0 million. This reflected the Company’s outstanding offer to repurchase a portion of the 2028 Notes at 101% of their outstanding principal. This offer was below the observable trading price of the 2028 Notes as at December 31, 2024. See “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Senior Secured Notes” in this MD&A for additional details.

Available funding increased to $324.7 million as at December 31, 2025, compared to $132.4 million as at December 31, 2024, reflecting an increase in Senior Credit Facility capacity to $275.0 million (2024 – $50.0 million). See “Capital Resources and Liquidity” in this MD&A for additional details.

CashProvided by Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $35.3 million, compared to $60.2 million for the same period of 2024. The change primarily reflects lower Adjusted EBITDA and movements in non-cash working capital.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, cash provided by operating activities was $136.5 million compared to $144.5 million in 2024. The decrease reflects a reduction in Adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by changes in non-cash working capital.

| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 14 |

| --- | --- |

![](ea028059001_ex99-3img3.jpg)

Based on current and forecasted production levels, operating expenses, capital expenditures, existing commodity price risk management contracts and current outlook for commodity prices, the Company expects cash provided by operating activities will be sufficient to cover its operational commitments and financial obligations over the next twelve months.

CashUsed in Financing Activities


Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was $53.9 million, compared to $6.7 million in the same period of 2024. Cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $58.2 million, compared to $95.4 million in the same period of 2024. These changes were driven by the re-financing activities completed in the fourth quarter of 2025, specifically the redemption of the 2028 Notes, partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of common shares under the Rights Offering. Additional details are provided in “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Rights Offering” and “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Long-Term Debt” in this MD&A.

CashUsed in Investing Activities


Cash used in investing activities for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $51.7 million, compared to $24.1 million in the same period of 2024. Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $100.2 million, compared to $94.4 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in both periods was primarily attributable to higher capital expenditures in 2025 as compared to 2024.

Adjusted funds flow was $40.2 million, during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $53.0 million during the same period in 2024. Adjusted funds flow was $143.5 million, during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $171.9 million during the same period in 2024. The decrease in adjusted funds flow in both periods corresponds to the declines in Adjusted EBITDA discussed above, see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Cash Flow Summary” section in this MD&A.

Greenfire’s adjusted free cash flow deficit was $16.6 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to adjusted free cash flow of $39.8 million during the same period in 2024. Adjusted free cash flow was $31.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $80.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in both periods reflects higher capital expenditures together with lower adjusted funds flow.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

In 2025, Greenfire agreed to reimburse WEF for approximately $2.0 million of legal fees associated with the Change of Control Transaction including its adoption of a shareholder rights plan and related hearings before the Alberta Securities Commission, in which WEF was successful. The reimbursement was reviewed and approved by the independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors.

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

Certain financial measures in this MD&A are non-GAAP financial measures or ratios. These measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. This MD&A also contains supplementary financial measures and ratios. Supplementary financial measures are derived from IFRS Accounting Standards. Non-GAAP and supplementary financial measures are not intended to represent or replace measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Non-GAAPfinancial measures and ratios include: adjusted EBITDA, operating netback, operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts, adjusted funds flow, adjusted free cash flow (deficit), effective royalty rate, available funding, net surplus (debt) and per barrel figures associated with non-GAAP financial measures.

Supplementaryfinancial measures and ratios include: gross profit (loss), capital expenditures and depletion.

While these measures are commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, the Company’s determination of these measures may not be comparable with calculations of similar measures presented by other reporting issuers. We believe that the inclusion of these specified financial measures provides useful information to financial statement users when evaluating the financial results of Greenfire.

Non-GAAPFinancial Measures & Ratios


AdjustedEBITDA (including per barrel ($/bbl))


Adjusted EBITDA is used to measure Greenfire’s profitability from its underlying asset base on a continuing basis. When adjusted EBITDA is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a non-GAAP ratio.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) before interest and financing, income taxes, depletion, depreciation and amortization, transaction costs, refinancing costs and is adjusted for certain non-cash items, or other items that are considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations. Adjusted EBITDA ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by the Company’s total bitumen sales volume in a specified period.

Net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted EBITDA. For a reconciliation of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA, see the “Financial Results – Net Income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA” section in this MD&A.

OperatingNetback (including per barrel ($/bbl)) and Operating Netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts (includingper barrel ($/bbl))


Operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts are financial measures widely used in the oil and gas industry as measures of a company’s efficiency and ability to generate cash flow for debt repayments, capital expenditures or other uses. When Operating netback is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a non-GAAP ratio.


Operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts is comprised of gross profit (loss), plus loss on risk management contracts, less gain on risk management contracts and plus depletion expense on the Company’s operating assets. Operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts per barrel ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts by the Company’s bitumen sales volume in a specified period. Operating netback is further adjusted for realized gain (loss) risk management contracts, as appropriate. Operating netback per barrel ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing operating netback by the Company’s bitumen sales volume in a specified period.

Gross profit (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized (gain) loss on risk management contracts. See the “Financial Results – Operating Netback” section in this MD&A for a reconciliation of gross profit (loss) to operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts.

AdjustedFunds Flow


Management uses the adjusted funds flow measure to evaluate the Company’s ability to fund its capital programs and meet its ongoing financial obligations using cash flow internally generated from ongoing operating related activities.

Adjusted funds flow is computed as cash provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of changes in non-cash working capital, less transaction costs and transactions considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations.

Cash provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted funds flow, which is a non-GAAP measure. For a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to adjusted funds flow, see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Adjusted Funds Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (Deficit)” section in this MD&A.

AdjustedFree Cash Flow (Deficit)


Management uses adjusted free cash flow (deficit) as an indicator of the efficiency and liquidity of its business, measuring its funds after capital investment that are available to manage debt levels and return capital to shareholders.

Adjusted free cash flow (deficit) is computed as cash provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of changes in non-cash working capital, less transaction costs, transactions considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations, property, plant and equipment expenditures and acquisitions.

Cash provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted free cash flow (deficit), which is a non-GAAP measure. For a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow (deficit), see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Adjusted Funds Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (Deficit)” section in this MD&A.

EffectiveRoyalty Rate


Management uses effective royalty rate, a non-GAAP ratio, to compare between pre and post-payout crown royalties by calculating a royalty rate on a consistent basis.

Royalties consist of crown royalties on bitumen production paid to the Province of Alberta, based on government prescribed royalty rates. The pre-payout royalty rates are calculated using the Canadian dollar equivalent one-month trailing WTI benchmark price. Post-payout royalty rates are calculated using the estimated annual average Canadian dollar equivalent WTI benchmark price. These rates are applied to gross revenue (pre-payout) or the greater of gross or net revenue (post-payout). “Payout” is reached when net revenue is greater than costs for the cumulative project. Pre-payout, the gross revenue royalty—bitumen realization net of transportation and storage costs—starts at 1%, rising with the Canadian dollar WTI price to a maximum of 9%. Post-payout, the royalty is applied to the higher of the gross revenue royalty or the net revenue royalty (net of operating and capital costs).

The actual royalty rate applied will differ from the effective royalty rate. The effective royalty rate is calculated as royalty expense divided by oil sales after diluent and oil transportation expenses.

Effective royalty rate 5.12 % 6.16 % 5.72 % 7.06 %

NetSurplus (Debt)


Management uses net surplus (debt) to monitor and evaluate the Company’s financial strength, and financing requirements.

Net surplus (debt) is computed as the face value of Greenfire’s long-term debt adjusted for accounts payable and accrued liabilities, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, and prepaid expenses and deposits.

Long-term debt is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to net surplus (debt). For a reconciliation of long-term debt to net surplus (debt), see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Net Surplus (Debt)” section in this MD&A.

AvailableFunding


Management uses available funding to assess liquidity, financial flexibility and the Company’s ability to fund capital expenditures, and other obligations as they come due.

Available funding is calculated as working capital surplus (deficit), adjusted to exclude the current portion of risk management contracts, lease liabilities and other, current portion of decommissioning obligations, warrant liabilities, and the current portion of long-term debt, and including the undrawn capacity available under the Company’s Senior Credit Facility.

Net working capital surplus (deficit) is the GAAP measure that is the most directly comparable measure to available funding. For a reconciliation of net working capital surplus (deficit) to available funding, see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Available Funding” section in this MD&A.

SupplementaryFinancial Measures & Ratios


GrossProfit (Loss)


Gross profit (loss) is a supplementary financial measure prepared on a consistent basis with IFRS Accounting Standards. Greenfire uses gross profit (loss) to assess its core operating performance before considering other expenses such as general and administrative costs, financing costs, and income taxes. Gross profit (loss) is calculated as oil sales, net of royalties, plus gains on risk management contracts, less losses on risk management contracts, diluent expense, operating expense, depletion expense on the Company’s operating assets, transportation expenses and marketing expenses.

Management believes that gross profit (loss) provides investors, analysts, and other stakeholders with useful insight into the Company’s ability to generate profitability from its core operations before non-operating expenses. When gross profit (loss) is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a supplementary financial ratio. See the “Financial Results – Gross Profit (Loss)” section in this MD&A for a reconciliation of gross profit (loss).

CapitalExpenditures


Capital expenditures is a supplementary financial measure prepared on a consistent basis with IFRS Accounting Standards. Greenfire uses capital expenditures to monitor the cash flows it invests into property, plant and equipment. Capital expenditures is derived from the statement of cash flows and includes property, plant and equipment expenditures and acquisitions.

Management believes that capital expenditures provides investors, analysts and other stakeholders with a useful insight into the Company’s investments into property, plant and equipment. See the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Capital Expenditures” section in this MD&A for a reconciliation of capital expenditures.

Depletion


The term “depletion” or “depletion expense” is the portion of depletion and depreciation expense reflecting the cost of development and extraction of its bitumen reserves. The term “Depreciation expense” is the portion of depletion and depreciation expense for assets not directly associated with the development and extraction of the Company’s bitumen reserves. When depletion expense is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a supplementary financial ratio.

Management uses these metrics to analyze those costs directly associated with capital cost of different property, plant and equipment types. A quantitative reconciliation of depletion expense and depreciation expense to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, Depletion and depreciation expense, is contained under the heading “Financial Results – Depletion and Depreciation Expenses” of this MD&A.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The Company enters into commitments and contractual obligations in the normal course of operations. The following table is a summary of management’s estimate of the contractual maturities of obligations as at December 31, 2025:

($ thousands) 1 Year 2-3 Years 4-5 Years Thereafter Total
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 88,432 - - - 88,432
Lease liabilities^(1)^ 3,457 2,787 - - 6,244
Financial liabilities 91,889 2,787 - - 94,676
Transportation commitments 37,300 75,071 75,086 218,721 406,178
Other commitments^(2)^ 674 2,230 2,365 3,654 8,923
Total future payments 129,863 80,088 77,451 222,375 509,777
(1) Amounts<br> represent expected undiscounted cash payments.
--- ---
(2) Amounts<br> include $3.9 million under lease agreements to which the Company is committed but that have<br> not yet commenced.

Management believes its current capital resources, combined with its ability to manage cash flow and working capital requirements, will enable the Company to meet its current and future obligations, and fund other business needs. In the short term, the Company anticipates meeting its cash requirements through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flows, and accessing its available credit facilities.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Greenfire does not maintain off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or others that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and which are not disclosed in the financial statements.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Certain accounting policies require that management make appropriate decisions with respect to the formulation of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management reviews its estimates on a regular basis. The emergence of new information and changed circumstances may result in actual results or changes to estimates that differ materially from current estimates. The Company’s use of estimates and judgements in preparing the annual financial statements is discussed in Note 2 of the annual financial statements.

DISCLOSURECONTROLS AND INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


DisclosureControls and Procedures (“DC&P”)


The Company’s President and Vice President, Finance (“VP Finance”) have established and maintained DC&P and evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of these controls to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) material information relating to the Company is made known to the Company’s President and VP Finance by others, particularly during the period in which the annual and interim filings are being prepared; and (ii) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in securities legislation. Based on that evaluation the President and the VP Finance have concluded and certified the Company’s DC&P are effective as of December 31, 2025.

InternalControl over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”)


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company’s financial reporting. Internal control over the Company’s financial reporting is a process designed by, or designed under the supervision of, the Company’s President and VP Finance, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of annual financial statements and interim financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

The Company’s President and VP Finance have assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s ICFR as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and as defined in Canada by National Instrument 52-109, Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. This assessment was based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The President and VP Finance have concluded and certified that the Company’s ICFR was effective as of December 31, 2025.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period ended December 31, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well conceived, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met, and it should not be expected that the disclosure and internal controls and procedures will prevent all errors or fraud.

| --- | --- |

![](ea028059001_ex99-3img3.jpg)

Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: a decline in oil prices or widening of differentials between various crude oil prices; lower than expected reservoir performance, including, but not limited to: lower oil production rates; the inability to recognize continued or increased efficiencies from the Company’s production enhancement program and processing plant enhancements; reduced access to or an increase in the cost of diluent; an increase in the cost of natural gas or electricity; the reliability and maintenance of Greenfire’s facilities; equipment failures that result in a failure to achieve expected benefits of capital expenditure programs or result in reduced production or increased costs; supply chain disruption and risks of increased costs relating to inflation; the uncertainty of reserve estimates and estimates and projects relating to production, costs and expenses; uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the safety and reliability of pipelines and trucking services that transport Greenfire’s products; the need to drill additional wells; the cost to transport bitumen, diluent and bitumen blend, and the cost to dispose of certain by-products; the availability and cost of insurance and the inability to insure against certain types of losses; severe weather or catastrophic events such as fires, droughts, lightning, earthquakes, extreme cold weather, storms or explosions; seasonal weather patterns and the corresponding effects of the spring thaw on Greenfire’s properties; operational and financial risks associated with wildfires in Alberta; the availability of pipeline capacity and other transportation and storage facilities for the Company’s bitumen blend; the cost of chemicals used in Greenfire’s operations, including, but not limited to, in connection with water and/or oil treatment facilities; the availability of and access to drilling equipment and key personnel; risks of cybersecurity threats including the possibility of potential breakdown, invasion, virus, cyber-attack, cyber-fraud, security breach, and destruction or interruption of the Company’s information technology systems; Canadian heavy and light oil export capacity constraints and the resulting impact on realized pricing; the impact of global wars and conflicts on global stability including the impacts of the Russia-Ukraine war and the conflicts in the Middle East, commodity prices and the world economy, changes in the political landscape and/or legal, tax, royalty and regulatory regimes in Canada, and elsewhere; changes in applicable tariff rates; the cost of compliance with applicable regulatory regimes, including, but not limited to, environmental regulation and Government of Alberta production curtailments, if any; the ability to attract or access capital as a result of changing investor priorities and trends, including as a result of climate change, environmental, social and governance initiatives, the adoption of decarbonization policies and the general negative sentiment towards the oil and gas industry; hedging risks; variations in foreign exchange and interest rates; failure to accurately estimate abandonment and reclamation costs; the potential for management estimates and assumptions to be inaccurate; risks associated with acquisitions; and general economic, market and business conditions in Canada, the United States and globally.

The lists of risk factors set out in this MD&A or in the Company’s other public disclosure documents are not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any forward-looking statements of the Company. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the matters set out in this MD&A generally and certain economic and business factors, some of which may be beyond the control of the Company. In addition, the global financial and credit markets have experienced significant debt and equity market and commodity price volatility which could have a particularly significant, detrimental and unpredictable effect on forward-looking statements. The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements, other than as required by applicable law. For all of these reasons, the Company’s securityholders should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

You should carefully consider all of the risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's 2025 AIF, which is also filed with the SEC under cover of Form 40-F, is available online at www.sedarplus.ca, www.sec.gov and on our website at www.greenfireres.com.

INITIAL PRODUCTION RATES

References in this MD&A to initial production rates, other short-term production rates or initial performance measures relating to new wells are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons; however, such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will commence production and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. While encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for the Company. Accordingly, the Company cautions that short-term initial results should be considered to be preliminary.
