THIRD QUARTER 2025 HIGHLIGHTS Sales Production Volumes
  • Conventional heavy oil sales production averaged 8,338 bbl/d, a 40% increase from the third quarter of 2024 (Q3 2024 - 5,954 bbl/d).

  • Total sales production averaged 12,122 boe/d (71% heavy oil and natural gas liquids ("NGL")), a 104% increase from the third quarter of 2024 (Q3 2024 - 5,954 boe/d (100% heavy oil)).

  • Rubellite brought 11 gross (9.0 net) heavy oil wells on production at Figure Lake and Frog Lake during the quarter.

  • The Company's West Central 2025 drilling program commenced in July, adding 2 gross (1.0 net) liquids-rich conventional natural gas wells at East Edson to sales production late in the third quarter.

  • Natural gas sales through the Figure Lake gas plant, operational since January 23, 2025, averaged 2.9 MMcf/d and 4 bbl/d of associated NGL.

    Capital Expenditures
  • Exploration and development capital expenditures(1)totaled $33.7 million to drill, complete, equip and tie-in 5 gross (5.0 net) multi-lateral horizontal development wells at Figure Lake, 7 gross (5.5 net) multi-lateral horizontal development wells at Frog Lake and 2 gross (1.0 net) liquids-rich conventional natural gas wells at East Edson.

  • Exploration and development spending in the third quarter included $1.5 million to expand the Figure Lake gas plant and gas gathering system, increasing capacity from 3.0 MMcf/d to 6.4 MMcf/d.

  • Land and other spending totaled $1.5 million and included $0.2 million for seismic purchases (Q3 2024 - $2.9 million). In addition to land purchases during the quarter, the Company sold undeveloped land for proceeds of $5.5 million which served to fund other capital activities and reduce net debt. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, Rubellite closed the sale of additional undeveloped land for $2.3 million.

  • Decommissioning, abandonment and reclamation spending totalled $0.4 million during the third quarter of 2025 (Q3 2024 - $0.2 million).

    Financial Performance
  • Adjusted funds flow(1)was $35.7 million ($0.38 per share), up 55% (9% per share) from the third quarter of 2024 (Q3 2024 - $23.0 million or $0.35 per share).

  • Cash costs(1)were $18.6 million or $16.66/boe, down 33% on a per boe basis from the third quarter of 2024 (Q3 2024 - $13.5 million or

OPERATIONS UPDATE Greater Figure Lake (Figure Lake and Edw and)

Heavy oil sales production from the Greater Figure Lake area averaged 5,110 bbl/d for the third quarter (Q2 2025 - 5,544 bbl/d). Additionally, gas sales contributed 2.9 MMcf/d plus associated natural gas liquids of 4 bbl/d which brought total sales production at Figure Lake for the third quarter to 5,601 boe/d (91% oil and liquids) (Q2 2025 - 6,064 bbl/d; 92% oil and liquids). Rubellite completed the expansion of the Figure Lake 1-13 Gas Plant to manage additional associated gas volumes in late August, establishing total throughput capacity of approximately 6.4 MMcf/d.

During the third quarter of 2025, Rubellite drilled and rig released 4 gross (4.0 net) development horizontal wells from the 9-35-63-18W4 pad (the "9-35 Pad"), all targeting the Wabiskaw Member of the Clearwater Formation, with 33 meter inter-leg spacing and 15,000m open hole length per the Figure Lake well design adopted in the latter half of 2024. Results from the 2025 development capital program to date across the Greater Figure Lake field continue to outperform expectations, with an average(1)IP30 of 259 bbl/d (9 wells) and IP60 of 239 bbl/d (8 wells), as compared to the McDaniel Tier 1 Type Curve(2)rates for 33 meter inter-leg spacing of 177 bbl/d (IP30) and 169 bbl/d(2)(IP60).

In addition to development drilling in the third quarter, 1 gross (1.0 net) step-out delineation well was drilled in the Edwand region with 50m inter-leg spacing and ~10,000m open hole length, to test and confirm productivity from a new pool in the Wabiskaw Member. The step-out well achieved an IP30 and IP60 of 48 bbl/d and 36 bbl/d, respectively.

Development drilling is continuing through the fourth quarter from the 9-35 Pad, including one waterflood pilot pattern consisting of a single horizontal multi-lateral well with two sets of four legs each (8 legs in total), with ~165 meters between the four-leg sets. Each 4-leg set will be drilled with 33 meter inter-leg spacing, and the waterflood producer well will have a planned total open hole length for the 8 legs of approximately 8,500 meters. A separate single leg water injection well will be drilled along the center line between the two 4-leg sets, and water injection is expected to commence in early 2026.

The Company advanced its novel natural gas-based re-injection pilot at Figure Lake for enhanced oil recovery, with an experimental well now configured at the 01-13-063-18W4 pad (the "1-13 Pad"), on the same site as the Figure Lake 1-13 Gas Plant. A total of ~25 MMcf of natural gas was injected into an existing open-hole multi-lateral well in order to confirm injectivity. Natural gas is being flowed back at controlled rates in advance of a second injection test, after which the well will be reconfigured for heavy oil production. Results from the waterflood pilot and natural gas-based re-injection experiment will inform future development patterns and enhanced oil recovery techniques to be implemented across the Greater Figure Lake area.

Rubellite also commenced testing larger diameter (200mm) boreholes at the 9-35 Pad to determine if incremental economic returns associated with improved inflow and productivity can be realized relative to the robust economics established for the existing 159mm boreholes drilled to date at Figure Lake. A total of 3 gross (3.0 net) wells with the 200mm borehole diameter will be drilled by year end.

A Sparky exploration well at Figure Lake is planned for the fourth quarter of 2025. If successful, there are approximately 15.0 net follow-up Sparky locations which would be incremental to the existing Clearwater development inventory.

During the third quarter, the Company was successful in acquiring 4.0 net sections of land. With the additional acreage, and adjusted to reflect both 2025 step-out and development drilling activity, Rubellite has an inventory of 260.2 net development locations(3)identified in the Wabiskaw, including 88.2 net proven and probable undeveloped(2)(3)booked locations. Under a one-rig program, which would provide for the drilling of 18 wells per year at Figure Lake, the Clearwater location count at Figure Lake represents ~14 years of low-risk development drilling inventory.

Frog Lake

Production at the Frog Lake property averaged 2,697 bbl/d (100% heavy oil) for the third quarter of 2025, a 6% increase from the second quarter of 2025 (Q2 2025 2,539 bbl/d).

During the third quarter, 1 gross (1.0 net) Waseca North well, 4 gross (3.0 net) Waseca South wells, and 2 gross (1.5 net) exploratory General Petroleum ("GP") wells were drilled, for a total of 7 gross (5.5 net) wells.

Rubellite switched its drilling operations at Frog Lake in December 2024 to utilize OBM. The OBM trial at Frog Lake has confirmed the benefits of using OBM fluid consistent with Rubellite's operations at Figure Lake, where the use of OBM has modestly reduced the cost of the mud system net of recovered OBM suitable for re-use and the sales credit for OBM that is not fit for re-use. Additional benefits include improved hole cleaning and stability, accelerated time to stabilized reservoir production, reduced drill pipe wear, and reduced water handling and disposal costs as compared to conventional water-based mud systems. The Company is continuing to utilize OBM in its ongoing drilling operations at Frog Lake as it evaluates the effects on long term production performance in different formations across the Frog Lake field.

Results thus far from the 2025 capital drilling program targeting the Waseca North sand at Frog Lake (13 gross (9.5 net) wells) have achieved an average(1)IP30 and IP60 of 133 bbl/d (13 wells) and 113 bbl/d (13 wells) respectively, as compared to the McDaniel Waseca North Type Curve(2)IP30 and IP60 of 107 bbl/d and 104 bbl/d established by McDaniel at year-end 2024 using historical data obtained from wells drilled with water-based mud systems.

2 gross (2.0 net) of the 4 gross (3.0 net) South Waseca sand wells drilled in the third quarter, have achieved an average IP30 of 159 bbl/d as compared to the McDaniel South Type Curve(2)of 150 bbl/d, while the remaining wells are either still recovering load fluid or are within the 30 day initial production period.

In addition to continued drilling of the Waseca sand as the primary development zone at Frog Lake, the Company drilled 2 gross (1.5 net) exploratory wells in the third quarter of 2025, targeting the GP sand. One gross (0.5 net) was drilled using a single leg lined horizontal lateral design and one gross (1.0 net) was drilled with a lined "fish bone" design. Both wells were equipped with recycle strings to aid in the flow of solids and sand from the horizontal section of the wells, have fully recovered drilling fluids, are continuing to clean up, and are selling oil. Production performance to date is promising with the "fish-bone" design recording an IP30 of 134 bbl/d gross and current production of 150 bbl/d gross (field estimate). The single lined lateral well is currently producing at 75 bbl/d gross (field estimate). Learnings from these two wells will confirm type curve assumptions, inform mapping parameters, geological cutoffs, and the future well design for optimum economic development of both the GP and Sparky sands in the Mannville Stack at Frog Lake.

The rig at Frog Lake will remain active and focused on the drilling of Waseca South, Sparky, and GP sands for the remainder of 2025.

Marten Hills

The Company commenced a "bottoms up" waterflood pilot at Marten Hills during the second quarter of 2025, with water injection initiated at its first injection well in April. Value is expected to be realized through reduced water handling costs, reduced production declines and enhanced reserve recoveries.

East Edson

Net production at East Edson was close to flat quarter-over-quarter, averaging 3,291 boe/d for the third quarter, (Q2 2025 - 3,269 boe/d).

Non-operated drilling commenced in the third quarter and 2 gross (1.0 net) wells were drilled, completed, and brought on stream. The average IP30 (gross) for the two wells was 1,165 boe/d as compared to the McDaniel Type Curve(2)of 1,003 boe/d, meeting expectations. An additional 2 gross (1.0 net) wells are expected to be drilled and placed on production prior to year end.

Other Exploration

In addition to exploration activities in the GP and Sparky zones at Frog Lake and the Sparky zone at Figure Lake, the Company is continuing to advance multiple additional new venture exploration prospects, pursuing both land capture and play concept de-risking activities while minimizing risked capital exposure. A total of $0.3 million was invested in the third quarter of 2025 to acquire seismic data for exploratory prospects that are expected to be evaluated in the next 12 months.

  1. No wells were excluded from the calculation of average results except the criteria for producing days.

  2. Type curve assumptions for the 33m spacing well design are based on the Total Proved plus Probable Undeveloped reserves contained in the 2024 McDaniel Reserve Report as disclosed in the Company's 2024 Annual Information Form available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at https://www.sedarplus.ca. "McDaniel" means McDaniel & Associates Consultants Ltd. independent qualified reserves evaluators. "McDaniel Reserve Report" means the independent engineering evaluation of the heavy crude oil and conventional natural gas and NGL reserves, prepared by McDaniel with an effective date of December 31, 2024 and a preparation date of March 10, 2025. See "Estimated Drilling Locations".

  3. Assuming a September 30, 2025, reference date, management estimates 260.2 net locations in the greater Figure Lake area, 65.6 net locations are recognized in the 2024 Year-End McDaniel Report as proved undeveloped and an additional 30.6 net locations are classified as probable undeveloped. The Company estimates a total of 326.2 net heavy oil development locations, 93.1 of which are proved and 45.6 are probable and included in the McDaniel Reserve Report. The following net reserve locations have been drilled through 2025: 8.0 proved undeveloped in Figure Lake, 4.5 proved undeveloped and 4.5 probable undeveloped in North Waseca, and 3.0 proved undeveloped in South Waseca.

    OUTLOOK AND GUIDANCE

    For the fourth quarter of 2025, Rubellite plans to spend a total of $30 to $35 million on exploration and development capital expenditures(1), bringing total spending for the year to $110 to $115 million. This increase over previous full year guidance of $100 to $110 million reflects: (1) the increased working interest from 50% to 100% for the drilling of four of seven gross wells at Frog Lake in the third quarter (two of the four 100% working interest wells were incorporated in previous guidance); (2) oil battery consolidation and facilities investments at Frog Lake to free up equipment for new pads and to reduce operating expenses; (3) accelerated non-operated spending at Edson on pipeline infrastructure for the Q1 2026 drilling program; (4) construction of additional surface pads at both Frog Lake and Figure Lake to optimize capital program execution; and (5) acquisition of additional bitcoin mining equipment to reduce flaring and monetize stranded solution gas.

    Rubellite's fourth quarter capital program includes: At Figure Lake:

    • Drilling of 4 gross (4.0 net) Clearwater 15,000m development wells remaining on the 9-35 Pad;

    • Drilling of 1 gross (1.0 net) Clearwater 8,500m producing well and one (1.0 net) single leg waterflood injector;

    • Drilling of 1 gross (1.0 net) Sparky exploration well; and

    • Core testing on a new core cut at the 9-35 Pad to progress enhanced oil recovery.

      At Frog Lake:

    • Drilling of 4 gross (2.0 net) South Waseca wells;

    • Drilling of 2 gross (1.0 net) GP exploration wells;

    • Drilling of 1 gross (0.5 net) exploratory Sparky well; and

    • Preliminary spending towards the acquisition of 3D seismic to better define geologically complex Mannville-Stack targets.

      At East Edson:

    • Participation in the drilling of 2 gross (1.0 net) Wilrich development wells to complete the 2025 drilling program.

Despite the ongoing volatility in oil prices, Rubellite is planning to maintain the operational efficiencies of its one rig drilling programs at each of Figure Lake and Frog Lake for the remainder of 2025, and to advance strategic initiatives such as land continuation and new capture, secondary recovery and exploration. The Company will continue to strive for meaningful per well capital cost reductions to maintain attractive rates of return and payout periods, and will manage its capital spending to prioritize free funds flow generation over production growth in this current weaker oil price environment.

Heavy oil sales volumes based on the current plan are expected to grow 47% to 50% year-over-year to average between 8,325 - 8,400 bbl/d in 2025, up from previous guidance of between 8,200 - 8,400 bbl/d. Total production sales volumes, including natural gas and NGL volumes at East Edson and Figure Lake, are forecast to average 12,325 - 12,400 boe/d in 2025, up from previous guidance of 12,200 - 12,400 boe/d.

Capital spending activity will continue to be funded from adjusted funds flow(1)combined with proceeds from the sale of undeveloped land, with excess free funds flow(1)used to reduce net debt(1)and for other balance sheet obligations. Aided by Rubellite's extensive commodity price risk management positions, the Company continues to forecast strong adjusted funds flow and free funds flow through the fourth quarter of 2025 based on the forward market for commodity prices as at November 5, 2025.

Rubellite's Clearwater and Mannville Stack production continues to realize an attractive offset to WCS benchmark pricing, resulting in a further improvement to its heavy oil wellhead differential guidance to a range of $3.75 to $4.00 per bbl, down from $4.00 to $4.50 per bbl previously. Initiatives to improve field operating costs have improved the Company's operating cost guidance to a range of $6.50 to $7.00 per boe as compared to $6.50 to $7.25 per boe previously. Additionally, transportation costs were normalized across operations during the third quarter, driving guidance for annual transportation costs down to $5.25 - $5.50 per boe versus $5.50 - $6.00 per boe previously.

Rubellite will continue to address end of life ARO, with total abandonment and reclamation expenditures of approximately $0.5 million planned for the fourth quarter of 2025. In combination with the $1.3 million of asset retirement obligation spending in the first three quarters of 2025, the Company is on track to exceed its Alberta Energy Regulator ("AER") area-based mandatory spending requirement for 2025 of $1.7 million.

OPERATIONS UPDATE

Greater Figure Lake (Figure Lake and Edwand)

Heavy oil sales production from the Greater Figure Lake area averaged 5,110 bbl/d for the third quarter (Q2 2025 - 5,544 bbl/d). Additionally, gas sales contributed 2.9 MMcf/d plus associated natural gas liquids of 4 bbl/d which brought total sales production at Figure Lake for the third quarter to 5,601 boe/d (91% oil and liquids) (Q2 2025 - 6,064 bbl/d; 92% oil and liquids). Rubellite completed the expansion of the Figure Lake 1-13 Gas Plant to manage additional associated gas volumes in late August, establishing total throughput capacity of approximately 6.4 MMcf/d.

During the third quarter of 2025, Rubellite drilled and rig released 4 gross (4.0 net) development horizontal wells from the 9-35-63-18W4 pad (the "9-35 Pad"), all targeting the Wabiskaw Member of the Clearwater Formation, with 33 meter inter-leg spacing and 15,000m open hole length per the Figure Lake well design adopted in the latter half of 2024. Results from the 2025 development capital program to date across the Greater Figure Lake field continue to outperform expectations, with an average(1) IP30 of 259 bbl/d (9 wells) and IP60 of 239 bbl/d (8 wells), as compared to the McDaniel Tier 1 Type Curve(2) rates for 33 meter inter-leg spacing of 177 bbl/d (IP30) and 169 bbl/d(2) (IP60).

In addition to development drilling in the third quarter, 1 gross (1.0 net) step-out delineation well was drilled in the Edwand region with 50m inter-leg spacing and ~10,000m open hole length, to test and confirm productivity from a new pool in the Wabiskaw Member. The step-out well achieved an IP30 and IP60 of 48 bbl/d and 36 bbl/d, respectively.

Development drilling is continuing through the fourth quarter from the 9-35 Pad, including one waterflood pilot pattern consisting of a single horizontal multi-lateral well with two sets of four legs each (8 legs in total), with ~165 meters between the four-leg sets. Each 4-leg set will be drilled with 33 meter inter-leg spacing, and the waterflood producer well will have a planned total open hole length for the 8 legs of approximately 8,500 meters. A separate single leg water injection well will be drilled along the center line between the two 4-leg sets, and water injection is expected to commence in early 2026.

The Company advanced its novel natural gas-based re-injection pilot at Figure Lake for enhanced oil recovery, with an experimental well now configured at the 01-13-063-18W4 pad (the "1-13 Pad"), on the same site as the Figure Lake 1-13 Gas Plant. A total of ~25 MMcf of natural gas was injected into an existing open-hole multi-lateral well in order to confirm injectivity. Natural gas is being flowed back at controlled rates in advance of a second injection test, after which the well will be reconfigured for heavy oil production. Results from the waterflood pilot and natural gas-based re-injection experiment will inform future development patterns and enhanced oil recovery techniques to be implemented across the Greater Figure Lake area.

Rubellite also commenced testing larger diameter (200mm) boreholes at the 9-35 Pad to determine if incremental economic returns associated with improved inflow and productivity can be realized relative to the robust economics established for the existing 159mm boreholes drilled to date at Figure Lake. A total of 3 gross (3.0 net) wells with the 200mm borehole diameter will be drilled by year end.

A Sparky exploration well at Figure Lake is planned for the fourth quarter of 2025. If successful, there are approximately 15.0 net follow-up Sparky locations which would be incremental to the existing Clearwater development inventory.

During the third quarter, the Company was successful in acquiring 4.0 net sections of land. With the additional acreage, and adjusted to reflect both 2025 step-out and development drilling activity, Rubellite has an inventory of 260.2 net development locations(3) identified in the Wabiskaw, including 88.2 net proven and probable undeveloped(2)(3) booked locations. Under a one-rig program, which would provide for the drilling of 18 wells per year at Figure Lake, the Clearwater location count at Figure Lake represents ~14 years of low-risk development drilling inventory.

Frog Lake

Production at the Frog Lake property averaged 2,697 bbl/d (100% heavy oil) for the third quarter of 2025, a 6% increase from the second quarter of 2025 (Q2 2025 2,539 bbl/d).

During the third quarter, 1 gross (1.0 net) Waseca North well, 4 gross (3.0 net) Waseca South wells, and 2 gross (1.5 net) exploratory General Petroleum ("GP") wells were drilled, for a total of 7 gross (5.5 net) wells.

Rubellite switched its drilling operations at Frog Lake in December 2024 to utilize OBM. The OBM trial at Frog Lake has confirmed the benefits of using OBM fluid consistent with Rubellite's operations at Figure Lake, where the use of OBM has modestly reduced the cost of the mud system net of recovered OBM suitable for re-use and the sales credit for OBM that is not fit for re-use. Additional benefits include improved hole cleaning and stability, accelerated time to stabilized reservoir production, reduced drill pipe wear, and reduced water handling and disposal costs as compared to conventional water-based mud systems. The Company is continuing to utilize OBM in its ongoing drilling operations at Frog Lake as it evaluates the effects on long term production performance in different formations across the Frog Lake field.

Results thus far from the 2025 capital drilling program targeting the Waseca North sand at Frog Lake (13 gross (9.5 net) wells) have achieved an average(1) IP30 and IP60 of 133 bbl/d (13 wells) and 113 bbl/d (13 wells) respectively, as compared to the McDaniel Waseca North Type

Curve(2) IP30 and IP60 of 107 bbl/d and 104 bbl/d established by McDaniel at year-end 2024 using historical data obtained from wells drilled with water-based mud systems.

2 gross (2.0 net) of the 4 gross (3.0 net) South Waseca sand wells drilled in the third quarter, have achieved an average IP30 of 159 bbl/d as compared to the McDaniel South Type Curve(2) of 150 bbl/d, while the remaining wells are either still recovering load fluid or are within the 30 day initial production period.

In addition to continued drilling of the Waseca sand as the primary development zone at Frog Lake, the Company drilled 2 gross (1.5 net) exploratory wells in the third quarter of 2025, targeting the GP sand. One gross (0.5 net) was drilled using a single leg lined horizontal lateral design and one gross (1.0 net) was drilled with a lined "fish bone" design. Both wells were equipped with recycle strings to aid in the flow of solids and sand from the horizontal section of the wells, have fully recovered drilling fluids, are continuing to clean up, and are selling oil. Production performance to date is promising with the "fish-bone" design recording an IP30 of 134 bbl/d gross and current production of 150 bbl/d gross (field estimate). The single lined lateral well is currently producing at 75 bbl/d gross (field estimate). Learnings from these two wells will confirm type curve assumptions, inform mapping parameters, geological cutoffs, and the future well design for optimum economic development of both the GP and Sparky sands in the Mannville Stack at Frog Lake.

The rig at Frog Lake will remain active and focused on the drilling of Waseca South, Sparky, and GP sands for the remainder of 2025.

Marten Hills

The Company commenced a "bottoms up" waterflood pilot at Marten Hills during the second quarter of 2025, with water injection initiated at its first injection well in April. Value is expected to be realized through reduced water handling costs, reduced production declines and enhanced reserve recoveries.

East Edson

Net production at East Edson was close to flat quarter-over-quarter, averaging 3,291 boe/d for the third quarter, (Q2 2025 - 3,269 boe/d).

Non-operated drilling commenced in the third quarter and 2 gross (1.0 net) wells were drilled, completed, and brought on stream. The average IP30 (gross) for the two wells was 1,165 boe/d as compared to the McDaniel Type Curve(2) of 1,003 boe/d, meeting expectations. An additional 2 gross (1.0 net) wells are expected to be drilled and placed on production prior to year end.

Other Exploration

In addition to exploration activities in the GP and Sparky zones at Frog Lake and the Sparky zone at Figure Lake, the Company is continuing to advance multiple additional new venture exploration prospects, pursuing both land capture and play concept de-risking activities while minimizing risked capital exposure. A total of $0.3 million was invested in the third quarter of 2025 to acquire seismic data for exploratory prospects that are expected to be evaluated in the next 12 months.

  1. No development wells were excluded from the calculation of average results except by the criteria for producing days.

  2. Type curve assumptions for the 33 meter spacing well design are based on the Total Proved plus Probable Undeveloped reserves contained in the 2024 McDaniel Reserve Report as disclosed in the Company's 2024 Annual Information Form available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at https://www.sedarplus.ca. "McDaniel" means McDaniel & Associates Consultants Ltd. independent qualified reserves evaluators. "McDaniel Reserve Report" means the independent engineering evaluation of the heavy crude oil and conventional natural gas and NGL reserves, prepared by McDaniel with an effective date of December 31, 2024 and a preparation date of March 10, 2025. See "Estimated Drilling Locations.

  3. Assuming a September 30, 2025, reference date, management estimates 260.2 net locations in the greater Figure Lake area, 65.6 net locations are

recognized in the 2024 Year-End McDaniel Report as proved undeveloped and an additional 30.6 net locations are classified as probable undeveloped. The Company estimates a total of 326.2 net heavy oil development locations, 93.1 of which are proved and 45.6 are probable and included in the McDaniel Reserve Report. The following net reserve locations have been drilled through 2025: 8.0 proved undeveloped in Figure Lake, 4.5 proved undeveloped and

4.5 probable undeveloped in North Waseca, and 3.0 proved undeveloped in South Waseca.

OUTLOOK AND GUIDANCE

For the fourth quarter of 2025, Rubellite plans to spend a total of $30 to $35 million on exploration and development capital expenditures(1), bringing total spending for the year to $110 to $115 million. This increase over previous full year guidance of $100 to $110 million reflects: (1) the increased working interest from 50% to 100% for the drilling of four of seven gross wells at Frog Lake in the third quarter (two of the four 100% working interest wells were incorporated in previous guidance); (2) oil battery consolidation and facilities investments at Frog Lake to free up equipment for new pads and to reduce operating expenses; (3) accelerated non-operated spending at Edson on pipeline infrastructure for the Q1 2026 drilling program; (4) construction of additional surface pads at both Frog Lake and Figure Lake to optimize capital program execution; and (5) acquisition of additional bitcoin mining equipment to reduce flaring and monetize stranded solution gas.

Rubellite's fourth quarter capital program includes: At Figure Lake:

  • Drilling of 4 gross (4.0 net) Clearwater 15,000m development wells remaining on the 9-35 Pad;

  • Drilling of 1 gross (1.0 net) Clearwater 8,500m producing well and one (1.0 net) single leg waterflood injector;

  • Drilling of 1 gross (1.0 net) Sparky exploration well; and

  • Core testing on a new core cut at the 9-35 Pad to progress enhanced oil recovery.

    At Frog Lake:

  • Drilling of 4 gross (2.0 net) South Waseca wells;

  • Drilling of 2 gross (1.0 net) GP exploration wells;

  • Drilling of 1 gross (0.5 net) exploratory Sparky well; and

  • Preliminary spending towards the acquisition of 3D seismic to better define geologically complex Mannville-Stack targets.

    At East Edson:

  • Participation in the drilling of 2 gross (1.0 net) Wilrich development wells to complete the 2025 drilling program.

Despite the ongoing volatility in oil prices, Rubellite is planning to maintain the operational efficiencies of its one rig drilling programs at each of Figure Lake and Frog Lake for the remainder of 2025, and to advance strategic initiatives such as land continuation and new capture, secondary recovery and exploration. The Company will continue to strive for meaningful per well capital cost reductions to maintain attractive rates of return and payout periods, and will manage its capital spending to prioritize free funds flow generation over production growth in this current weaker oil price environment.

Heavy oil sales volumes based on the current plan are expected to grow 47% to 50% year-over-year to average between 8,325 - 8,400 bbl/d in 2025, up from previous guidance of between 8,200 - 8,400 bbl/d. Total production sales volumes, including natural gas and NGL volumes at East Edson and Figure Lake, are forecast to average 12,325 - 12,400 boe/d in 2025, up from previous guidance of 12,200 - 12,400 boe/d.

Capital spending activity will continue to be funded from adjusted funds flow(1) combined with proceeds from the sale of undeveloped land, with excess free funds flow(1) used to reduce net debt(1) and for other balance sheet obligations. Aided by Rubellite's extensive commodity price risk management positions, the Company continues to forecast strong adjusted funds flow and free funds flow through the fourth quarter of 2025 based on the forward market for commodity prices as at November 5, 2025.

Rubellite's Clearwater and Mannville Stack production continues to realize an attractive offset to WCS benchmark pricing, resulting in a further improvement to its heavy oil wellhead differential guidance to a range of $3.75 to $4.00 per bbl, down from $4.00 to $4.50 per bbl previously. Initiatives to improve field operating costs have improved the Company's operating cost guidance to a range of $6.50 to $7.00 per boe as compared to $6.50 to $7.25 per boe previously. Additionally, transportation costs were normalized across operations during the third quarter, driving guidance for annual transportation costs down to $5.25 - $5.50 per boe versus $5.50 - $6.00 per boe previously.

Rubellite will continue to address end of life ARO, with total abandonment and reclamation expenditures of approximately $0.5 million planned for the fourth quarter of 2025. In combination with the $1.3 million of asset retirement obligation spending in the first three quarters of 2025, the Company is on track to exceed its Alberta Energy Regulator ("AER") area-based mandatory spending requirement for 2025 of $1.7 million.

  4. 1 gross (0.3 net) injection waterflood well was drilled at Marten Hills on the 12-35 Pad during Q1 2025.

  5. 1 gross (1.0 net) horizontal evaluation well was drilled in Q1 2025 and 1 gross (1.0 net) vertical stratigraphic evaluation well was drilled in Q1 2024. The wells were transferred to E&E expense in Q1 2025.

Capital Expenditures

During the third quarter of 2025, Rubellite invested a total of $33.7 million in exploration and development activities, before land and other corporate spending, related primarily to drill, complete, equip and tie-in 5 gross (5.0 net) multi-lateral horizontal Clearwater wells at Figure Lake, 5 gross (4.0 net) multi-lateral horizontal Waseca wells and 2 gross (1.5 net) single leg lined GP wells at Frog Lake, and 2 gross (1.0 net)

horizontal multi-frac Wilrich wells at East Edson. A portion of capital to drill 1 gross (1.0 net) additional well at Figure Lake and 1 gross (1.0 net) additional well at Frog Lake was spent during the third quarter with both wells rig released early in the fourth quarter. Facilities spending included $1.5 million for gas gathering and pipeline tie-ins at Figure Lake, supporting the solution gas conservation project.

During the first nine months of 2025, the Company spent $79.8 million on exploration and development activities, before land and other corporate spending, primarily related to the two rig program to drill, complete, equip and tie-in 14 gross (14.0 net) wells at Figure Lake, 19 gross (14.0 net) wells at Frog Lake, 1 gross (0.3 net) waterflood injection well at Marten Hills, 2 gross (1.0 net) wells at East Edson and 1 gross (1.0 net) exploratory evaluation well. Capital spending also included $3.4 million for facilities spending at Figure Lake for the solution gas conservation project and $0.9 million at East Edson for lease construction, facility improvements and pipelines to support the ongoing drilling program with the 50% joint venture partner.

Land and seismic purchases were $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, with total land and seismic spending in 2025 of $11.3 million to acquire core area lands prospective for Clearwater development and to capture acreage on multiple exploration prospects.

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company disposed of undeveloped lands for proceeds of $5.5 million and recorded a corresponding gain on disposition.

During the third quarter of 2025, Rubellite spent $0.4 million (Q3 2024 - nominal) on abandonment and reclamation projects, with total asset retirement obligation expenditures of $1.3 million (2024 - $0.1 million) during the first nine months of 2025. No additional reclamation certificates were received from the AER in the third quarter of 2025, maintaining the total at two certificates received to date in 2025 (2024 -nil).

  1. Primarily from the Clearwater and Mannville Stack formations in Eastern Alberta, which includes gas sales production at Figure Lake which commenced in Q1 2025 and assets at Frog Lake that were acquired in Q3 2024.

  2. Acquired through the Recombination Transaction with Perpetual in Q4 2024, which includes assets at East Edson that produce liquids-rich conventional natural gas.

Sales production for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by 6,168 boe/d (104%) and 7,315 boe/d (146%) from the comparative periods of 2024, driven by successful drilling programs, Figure Lake solution gas tie-in, the BMEC Acquisition at Frog Lake in the third quarter of 2024 and the Recombination Transaction with Perpetual in the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company has increased its previously announced guidance range to 8,325 to 8,450 bbl/d (previously 8,200 to 8,400 bbl/d) of heavy oil sales volumes and 12,325 to 12,400 boe/d (previously 12,200 to 12,400 boe/d) of total sales volumes.

During the first half of 2025, 21 gross (18.0 net) wells from the Eastern Heavy Oil drilling program began contributing to sales, with an additional 11 gross (9.0 net) wells added during the third quarter, resulting in a total of 32 gross (27.0 net) wells contributing to sales in 2025. At the end of the third quarter, 4 gross (3.5 net) additional wells were recovering OBM drilling fluid and not yet contributing to sales. The Company's West Central 2025 drilling program commenced in the third quarter, adding 2 gross (1.0 net) liquids-rich conventional natural gas wells to sales production late in the third quarter.

At Figure Lake, a new gas plant commenced operations on January 23, 2025 and added 2.9 MMcf/d and 2.7 MMcf/d of natural gas sales on average during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, assets acquired through the Recombination Transaction at East Edson added 3,291 boe/d and 3,421 boe/d of natural gas and NGL sales production (Q3 2024 and 2024 - nil) and the Frog Lake assets acquired through the BMEC Acquisition in August 2024 added 2,697 bbl/d and 2,554 bbl/d of heavy oil sales production (Q3 2024 - 1,528 bbl/d; 2024 - 513 bbl/d).

As a result of the Recombination Transaction and Figure Lake solution gas conservation, Rubellite's sales product mix was comprised of 71% conventional heavy crude oil and NGL and 29% conventional natural gas during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 (2024 comparative periods - 100% conventional heavy crude oil).

Rubellite's oil and natural gas revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $14.6 million or 33% and $76.1 million or 70% from the comparative periods of 2024, primarily driven by the increase in sales volumes partially offset by lower oil prices.

Oil revenue for the third quarter of 2025 of $55.5 million represented 95% of total revenue while conventional heavy crude oil production was 69% of total sales volumes. The 27% increase in oil revenue was driven by the 40% increase in heavy crude oil production, partially offset by a 9% decrease in average realized oil prices. Compared to the third quarter of 2024, the WCS average price decreased to $75.10/bbl (Q3 2024 - $83.95/bbl), attributable to the 14% decrease in WTI oil prices, partially offset by an increase in the CAD$/US$ rate to $1.38 (Q3 2024

- $1.36) and a narrowing of the WCS differential to US$10.39/bbl (Q3 2024 - US$13.55/bbl).

During the first nine months of 2025, oil revenue was $170.6 million and represented 92% of total revenue while conventional heavy crude oil production was 69% of total sales volumes. The 56% increase in oil revenue was driven by the 69% increase in heavy crude oil production, partially offset by a 7% decrease in average realized oil prices. Relative to the comparative period of 2024, the WCS average price decreased 8% to $77.88/bbl (2024 - $84.45/bbl) driven by a 14% decrease in WTI oil prices to US$66.70/bbl (2024 - US$77.54/bbl), partially offset by an increase in the CAD$/US$ rate to $1.40 (2024 - $1.36) and the narrowing of the WCS differential to US$11.11/bbl (2024 - US$15.49/bbl).

Rubellite's realized oil price reflects a price offset for quality and optimization of sales delivery points, which averaged $2.70/bbl and $3.82/bbl for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to $4.20/bbl and $4.57/bbl in the comparative periods of 2024.

Natural gas revenue of $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2025 represented 2% of total revenue while natural gas production was 29% of total sales volumes. Natural gas revenues reflected AECO Daily Index prices of $0.63/Mcf. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, natural gas revenue was $9.2 million and 5% of total revenue while natural gas production was 29% of total sales volumes, reflecting AECO Daily Index prices of $1.50/Mcf.

NGL revenue of $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2025 represented 3% of total revenue and total sales volumes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, NGL revenue of $5.7 million represented 3% of total revenue and total sales volumes.

Risk Management Contracts

The Company uses "average realized prices after risk management contracts" which is not a standardized measure, and therefore may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures by other entities. The measure is used by management to calculate Rubellite's net realized price, taking into account the monthly settlements of financial crude oil and natural gas forward sales, differentials and foreign exchange contracts. These contracts are put in place to protect Rubellite's adjusted funds flow from potential downside risk and volatility and to lock in economics on drilling programs and acquisitions.

The realized gain on risk management contracts totaled $4.0 million or $3.56/boe for the third quarter of 2025, compared to a gain of $0.2 million or $0.31/boe for the third quarter of 2024. For the nine month period ending September 30, 2025, the realized gain on risk management contracts totaled $8.6 million or $2.56/boe (2024 - realized loss of $0.6 million or $0.42/boe). Hedging gains or losses are attributable to reference price fluctuations relative to pricing on commodity contracts driven by changes in AECO, WTI and WCS differential benchmark prices as well as fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the percentage of production volumes hedged at any given time.

The unrealized loss on risk management contracts was $7.4 million for the third quarter of 2025 (Q3 2024 - $11.4 million unrealized gain) and the unrealized loss on risk management contracts was $3.0 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2025 (2024 - $1.1 million unrealized gain). Unrealized gains and losses represent the change in the mark-to-market value of risk management contracts for future periods as forward commodity prices and foreign exchange rates change. Unrealized gains and losses on risk management contracts are excluded from the Company's calculation of cash flow from operating activities as non-cash items. Risk management contract gains and losses vary depending on commodity prices and the nature and extent of the risk management contracts in place, which in turn, vary with the Company's assessment of commodity price risk, committed capital spending and other factors.

Rubellite's royalties consist of Crown royalties payable to the Alberta provincial government, royalties payable to Indian Oil and Gas Canada ("IOGC"), and other freehold and GORR royalties. The mix between Crown, IOGC and freehold production as a percentage of total production can change the composition of royalties from one period to the next. Under the Alberta Modernized Royalty Framework ("MRF"), the Company pays a Crown royalty of between 5% and 20% on wells where mineral rights are leased from the Crown. Under the Indian Oil and Gas Act, the Company pays a royalty of between 10% and 40% on wells where mineral rights are leased. The remainder of royalties are attributable to the composition of freehold and GORR royalties, some of which are price sensitive.

Total royalties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, were $8.0 million and $25.1 million, an increase from the comparative periods of 2024 on higher production, increased revenue and a higher percentage of wells with gross overriding royalties ("GORR").

On a per boe basis, royalties were $7.18/boe and $7.46/boe, a decrease from the comparative periods of 2024 as a result of higher sales volumes and lower prices, which more than offset the higher percentage of wells drilled on lands with a GORR. Royalties as a percentage of revenue were higher than the comparative periods of 2024 due to increased number of wells receiving higher GORR royalty rates.

Total net operating costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased to $7.2 million and $22.6 million from $4.6 million and $10.0 million in the comparative periods of 2024 as a result of increased production volumes.

On a per boe basis, net operating costs for the three and nine months decreased by 24% to $6.46/boe and 8% to $6.72/boe (Q3 2024 -

$8.46/boe; 2024 - $7.29/boe). During the third quarter of 2025, costs were lower due to a reduction in carbon taxes driven by legislative changes announced in early 2025 and operational efficiencies at the Frog Lake property acquired in the third quarter of 2024. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2025, the reduction was driven by lower well servicing costs and third party processing fees, partially offset by higher repairs and maintenance costs in all areas.

Transportation costs include clean oil trucking costs and NGL transportation, as well as costs to transport natural gas from the plant gate to commercial sales point. Costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased to $5.2 million and $18.1 million, up from

$4.2 million and $10.6 million in the comparative periods of 2024 as a result of higher volumes.

On a per boe basis, transportation costs of $4.66/boe were 39% lower than the third quarter of 2024 (Q3 2024 - $7.67/boe) and 30% lower during the first nine months of 2025 (2024 - $7.73/boe). The decrease related to improved trucking rates realized for the Company's Clearwater and Frog Lake assets and the addition of natural gas volumes which incur lower transportation costs relative to the heavy oil assets.

  1. Non-GAAP measure. See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures".

  2. Realized hedging for the first nine months of 2025 is comprised of a $1.19/bbl gain on oil contracts and a $1.01/Mcf gain on gas contracts (2024 - $0.42/ bbl loss on oil contracts and nil on gas contracts).

Rubellite's Eastern Heavy Oil operating netback for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased to $38.6 million and

$115.3 million (Q3 2024 - $29.6 million; 2024 - $76.2 million) as a result of higher sales volumes. On a per boe basis, the decrease during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 relative to the comparable periods of 2024 was driven by lower realized oil prices, partially offset by lower royalties and net operating and transportation costs.

Rubellite's total operating netback for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased to $37.9 million and $119.6 million from $29.6 million and $76.2 million in the comparative periods of 2024. On a per boe basis, the decrease was driven by lower total realized prices, reflecting lower oil prices and the addition of natural gas to the sales product mix through the Recombination Transaction and the completion of the Figure Lake gas plant, partially offset by reduced royalties and net operating and transportation costs.

For the three and nine month ended September 30, 2025, the operating netback after a realized gain on risk management contracts was

$37.53/boe and $38.16/boe (Q3 2024 - $54.33/boe; 2024 - $55.28/boe).

  1. Prior to the Recombination Transaction, Rubellite Energy Inc. and Perpetual were considered related parties due to the existence of a Management and Operating Services Agreement ("MSA") and certain officers and directors being key management of, and having significant influence over, Rubellite Energy Inc. while also being key management of and having deemed control over Perpetual. Under the MSA, Rubellite Energy Inc. made payments to Perpetual for certain technical, capital and administrative services provided to Rubellite Energy Inc. on a relative cost sharing basis.

G&A expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased to $5.2 million and $15.9 million (Q3 2024 - $1.0 million; 2024 - $2.6 million). Prior to the Recombination Transaction, G&A expenses, excluding MSA costs, consisted primarily of legal fees, computer software licenses, insurance, professional fees and public company costs. After the Recombination Transaction was completed, G&A expenses in Rubellite increased to include all G&A costs previously billed through the MSA including people, office and computer costs and recoveries.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, G&A costs on a per boe basis decreased to $3.24/boe and $3.58/boe from

$4.87/boe and $5.18/boe in the comparative periods of 2024 due to higher sales volumes.

The Company calculates depletion using the net book value of the asset, future development costs associated with proved and probable reserves, salvage values on associated production equipment, as well as proved plus probable reserves. As at September 30, 2025, depletion was calculated on a $496.4 million depletable balance (December 31, 2024 - $473.4 million), $387.5 million in future development costs (December 31, 2024 - $436.3 million) and excluded an estimated $9.2 million of salvage value (December 31, 2024 - $8.7 million).

Depletion and depreciation expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $23.6 million or $21.18/boe (Q3 2024 - $13.1 million or $23.95/boe). For the first nine months of 2025, depletion and depreciation expense was $70.0 million or $20.82/boe (2024 - $30.8 or $22.48/boe). The increase in depletion related to a higher depletable base than the comparable period as a result of the BMEC Acquisition and the Recombination Transaction. On a per boe basis, depletion was lower in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 relative to the comparable periods of 2024, as a result of the Recombination Transaction, as the West Central assets have higher reserves relative to production resulting in a lower per unit cost of reserves relative to Rubellite's Eastern Heavy Oil assets. Depletion will fluctuate from one period to the next depending on the amount of capital spent, the amount of reserves added and volumes produced.

Impairment

There were no indicators of impairment for either of the Company's CGUs as at September 30, 2025, therefore, an impairment test was not performed.

E&E assets are tested for impairment when internal or external indicators of impairment exist as well as upon reclassification to oil and natural gas interests in PP&E. At September 30, 2025, the Company conducted an assessment of indicators of impairment for the Company's E&E assets. In performing the assessment, management determined there were no indicators of impairment.

During the first nine months of 2025 there have been no transfers between E&E and PP&E. During 2024, the Company transferred $20.8 million of E&E to PP&E. As a result of the transfer, the Company performed the required impairment test to estimate the recoverable amount of the CGU. It was determined that the recoverable amount of the CGU exceeded its carrying value, resulting in no impairment.

$2.0 million; 2024 - $4.1 million) as a result of higher average outstanding bank debt during the period, the addition of the term loan in the third quarter of 2024 and interest on lease liabilities from the Recombination Transaction. The effective aggregate interest rate on the Company's bank line for both the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2025 was 6.2% (Q3 2024 - 8.6%; 2024 - 8.5%) and the interest rate on the term loan was 11.5%.

Non-cash finance expense represents accretion on decommissioning obligations, accretion on the other provision and amortization of debt issue costs.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, cash finance expense on a per boe basis decreased from the comparative periods of 2024 due to higher sales volumes.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITALIZATION AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES

Rubellite's strategy targets the maintenance of a strong capital base to retain investor, creditor and market confidence to support the execution of its business plans. The Company manages its capital structure and adjusts its capital spending in light of changes in economic conditions, available liquidity, and the risk characteristics of its underlying assets. The Company considers its capital structure to include share capital, bank debt, term loans and adjusted working capital. To manage its capital structure and available liquidity, Rubellite may from time to time issue equity or debt securities, sell assets, and adjust its capital spending to manage current and projected debt levels. The Company will continue to regularly assess changes to its capital structure, with considerations for both short-term liquidity and long-term financial sustainability.

  3. Based on Q3 2025 adjusted funds flow, before transaction costs of $35.7 million (Q3 2024 - $25.0 million). See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" for more details.

At September 30, 2025, Rubellite had net debt of $138.4 million, a 10% decrease from $154.0 million at December 31, 2024. Net debt decreased as a result of adjusted funds flow for the first nine months of 2025 of $108.9 million exceeding capital expenditures including land and other expenditures of $91.5 million, which generated free funds flow $17.4 million and proceeds of $5.5 million from the sale of undeveloped land during the third quarter. The positive free funds flow and proceeds from the undeveloped land disposition were primarily used to reduce net debt and other obligations which included the $3.8 million reduction of the other provision, $1.3 million of spending on decommissioning activities and $2.6 million in payments for cash-settled share-based compensation.

Rubellite had available liquidity at September 30, 2025 of $48.0 million, comprised of the $140.0 million Credit Facility Borrowing Limit, less bank borrowings of $90.6 million and outstanding letters of credit of $1.4 million.

Bank debt

As at September 30, 2025, the Company's first lien credit facility had a borrowing limit of $140.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $140.0 million). The initial term is to May 31, 2026 and may be extended for a further twelve months to May 31, 2027 subject to lender approval. If not extended by May 31, 2026, all outstanding advances would be repayable on May 31, 2027. The next semi-annual borrowing base redetermination is scheduled on or before November 30, 2025.

As at September 30, 2025, $90.6 million was drawn against the credit facility (December 31, 2024 - $108.5 million) and $1.4 million (December 31, 2024 - $3.6 million) of letters of credit have been issued. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at the lenders' prime rate or CORRA rates, plus applicable margins and standby fees. The applicable CORRA margins range between 2.8% and 6.3%. The effective aggregate interest rate on the credit facility at September 30, 2025 was 6.2% per annum. For the period ended September 30, 2025, if interest rates changed by 1% with all other variables held constant, the impact on cash finance expense and net income and comprehensive income would be $0.7 million.

The credit facility is secured by general first lien security agreements covering all present and future property of the Company.

At September 30, 2025, the credit facility was not subject to any financial covenants and the Company was in compliance with all customary non-financial covenants.

On August 2, 2024, Rubellite entered into a senior secured second-lien term loan which was placed, directly or indirectly, with certain directors and officers, and their affiliates, of Rubellite and the Company's significant shareholder for $20.0 million. The term loan bears interest at 11.5% annually with interest payments to be paid quarterly and matures in five years from the date of issue, and can be repaid by the Company without penalty at any time. In conjunction with the closing of the Recombination Transaction, the term loan was converted to a third-lien obligation of the Company.

During the three and nine months ending September 30, 2025, Rubellite paid $0.6 and $1.7 million in cash interest payments to the holders of the term loan (three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 - $0.4 million).

At September 30, 2025, the term loan has been recorded at the present value of future cash flows, net of $0.9 million (December 31, 2024 -

$1.0 million) in issue and discount costs which are amortized over the remaining term using a weighted average effective interest rate of 13.0%.

The term loan is not subject to any financial covenants and the Company was in compliance with all customary non-financial covenants.

At September 30, 2025, entities controlled or directed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") hold $18.4 million of the outstanding term loan.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The Company has a drilling commitment on certain GORR lands that must be fulfilled by June 30, 2026 (the "Commitment Date"). In the event the Company fails to fulfill the drilling commitment, the Company is required to pay $0.1 million per well not spud by the Commitment Date. As at September 30, 2025, the Company has drilled 24 gross (24.0 net) of the 59 gross (59.0 net) wells that are required to meet the drilling commitment. Subsequent to September 30, 2025, the Company has drilled an additional 3 gross (3.0 net) wells for a total of 27 gross (27.0 net) wells required to meet the drilling commitment.

PROVISIONS Decommissioning obligations

Decommissioning obligations are estimated based on the Company's net ownership interest in all wells and facilities, estimated costs to reclaim and abandon these wells and facilities, and the estimated timing of the costs to be incurred in future periods.

The increase in the provision due to the passage of time, which is referred to as accretion, is recognized as non-cash finance expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Decommissioning obligations are further adjusted at each period end date for changes in the risk-free interest rate, after considering additions and dispositions of PP&E. Decommissioning obligations are also adjusted for revisions to future cost estimates and the estimated timing of costs to be incurred in future periods.

The annual scheduled payment was made on March 28, 2025 and all scheduled payments made prior to March 28, 2026 will have the interest forgiven. As of March 28, 2026, interest will accrue and be payable on the outstanding Settlement Principal annually at an interest rate equal to the applicable Bank of Canada prime rate on the date of payment. The Company is able to prepay all, or any portion, of the outstanding balance of the Settlement Principal at any time without bonus or penalty.

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

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

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Capital Expenditures: Rubellite uses capital expenditures related to exploration and development to measure its capital investments compared to the Company's annual capital budgeted expenditures. Rubellite's capital budget excludes acquisition and disposition activities.

The most directly comparable GAAP measure for capital expenditures is cash flow used in investing activities. A summary of the reconciliation of cash flow used in investing activities to capital expenditures, is set forth below:

Cash costs: Cash costs are comprised of net operating costs, transportation, general and administrative, and cash finance expense as detailed below. Cash costs per boe is calculated by dividing cash costs by total production sold in the period. Management believes that cash costs assist management and investors in assessing Rubellite's efficiency and overall cost structure.

Operating netbacks and total operating netbacks, after risk management contracts: Operating netback is calculated by deducting royalties, net operating expenses, and transportation costs from oil and natural gas revenue. Operating netback is also calculated on a per boe basis using total production sold in the period. Total operating netbacks, after risk management contracts, is presented after adjusting for realized gains or losses from risk management contracts. Rubellite considers operating netback and operating netback after risk management contracts to be key industry performance indicators that provides investors with information that is also commonly presented by other oil and natural gas producers. Rubellite presents the operating netback at a CGU level as it provides investors with key information related to the Eastern Heavy Oil CGU which is the area where growth capital investment is focused. Operating netback and operating netback, after risk management contracts, evaluate operational performance as it demonstrates its profitability relative to realized and current commodity prices. Net operating costs: Net operating costs equals operating expenses net of other income, which is made up of processing revenue and other one time items from time to time. Management views net operating costs as an important measure to evaluate its operational performance. The most directly comparable IFRS measure for net operating costs is production and operating expenses.

The following table reconciles net operating costs from production and operating expenses and other income in the Company's consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Net Debt and Adjusted Working Capital Deficit: Rubellite uses net debt as an alternative measure of outstanding debt and is calculated by adding borrowings under the credit facility and term loan debt less adjusted working capital. Adjusted working capital is calculated by adding cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and deposits and product inventory less accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Management considers net debt as an important measure in assessing the liquidity of the Company. Net debt is used by management to assess the Company's overall debt position and borrowing capacity. Net debt is not a standardized measure and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities.

  1. Calculation of current assets less current liabilities has been adjusted for the removal of the current portion of risk management contracts, decommissioning liabilities, lease liabilities, share-based compensation and other provisions.

  2. Excludes other non-current liabilities.

Adjusted funds flow: Adjusted funds flow is calculated based on net cash flows from operating activities, excluding changes in non-cash working capital and expenditures on decommissioning obligations, other provisions and share-based compensation since the Company believes the timing of collection, payment or incurrence of these items is variable. Expenditures on decommissioning and share based compensation obligations may vary from period to period and are managed as expenditures through the corporate budgeting process which considers available adjusted funds flow. Management uses adjusted funds flow and adjusted funds flow per boe as key measures to assess

the ability of the Company to generate the funds necessary to finance capital expenditures, expenditures on decommissioning obligations, expenditures on share based compensation and meet its financial obligations.

Adjusted funds flow is not intended to represent net cash flows from operating activities calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Free funds flow: Free funds flow is an important measure that informs efficiency of capital spent and liquidity. Free funds flow is calculated as adjusted funds flow generated during the period less capital expenditures. Rubellite's capital expenditures excluded non cash items and acquisitions and dispositions. Adjusted funds flow and capital expenditures are non-GAAP financial measures which have been reconciled to its most directly comparable GAAP measure previously in this document. By removing the impact of current period capital expenditures from adjusted funds flow, Rubellite monitors its free funds flow to inform decisions such as capital allocation and debt repayment.

The following table shows the calculation of the removal of capital expenditures from adjusted funds flows pre transaction costs:

Available Liquidity: Available liquidity is defined as the borrowing limit under the Company's credit facility, plus any cash and cash equivalents, less any borrowings and letters of credit issued under the credit facility. Management uses available liquidity to assess the ability of the Company to finance capital expenditures, expenditures on decommissioning obligations and to meet its financial obligations. Enterprise value: Enterprise value is equal to net debt plus the market value of issued equity, and is used by management to analyze leverage. Enterprise value is calculated by multiplying the current shares outstanding by the market price at the end of the period and then adjusting it by the net debt. The Company considers enterprise value as an important measure as it normalizes the market value of the Company's shares for its capital structure. Non-GAAP Financial Ratios

Rubellite calculates certain non-GAAP measures per boe as the measure divided by weighted average daily production. Management believes that per boe ratios are a key industry performance measure of operational efficiency and one that provides investors with information that is also commonly presented by other crude oil and natural gas producers. Rubellite also calculates certain non-GAAP measures per share as the measure divided by outstanding common shares, weighted average common shares or diluted weighted average common shares.

Average realized prices after risk management contracts: are calculated as the average realized price by product type less the realized gain or loss on risk management contracts by product type. Net debt to adjusted funds flow ratio: Net debt to adjusted funds flow ratios are calculated on a trailing twelve-month basis. Net debt to annualized adjusted funds flow ratio: Net debt to annualized adjusted funds flow ratios are calculated by annualizing the current quarter adjusted funds flow after transaction costs. Net debt as a percentage of enterprise value: Net debt as a percentage of enterprise value is calculated by dividing net debt by enterprise value. Adjusted funds flow per share: Adjusted funds flow ratios are calculated on a per share as the measure divided by basic shares outstanding. Adjusted funds flow per boe: Adjusted funds flow per boe is calculated as adjusted funds flow divided by total production sold in the period. Supplementary Financial Measures

Industry Metrics:

This MD&A contains certain industry metrics which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons. Such metrics have been included in this document to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate Rubellite's performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of Rubellite's future performance and future performance may not compare to Rubellite's performance in previous periods and therefore such metrics should not be unduly relied upon.

Volume Conversions:

Barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. In accordance with National Instrument 51-101 ("NI 51-101"), a conversion ratio for conventional natural gas of 6 Mcf:1 bbl has been used, which is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. In addition, utilizing a conversion on a 6 Mcf:1 bbl basis may be misleading as an indicator of value as the value ratio between conventional natural gas and heavy crude oil, based on the current prices of natural gas and crude oil, differ significantly from the energy equivalency of 6 Mcf:1 bbl. A conversion ratio of 1 bbl of heavy crude oil to 1 bbl of NGL has also been used throughout this MD&A.

Initial Production Rates:

Any references in this MD&A to initial production rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons; however, such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will continue production and decline thereafter and are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery. Readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for the Company. Such rates are based on field estimates and may be based on limited data available at this time.

Estimated Drilling Locations:

Of the 326.2 net heavy oil drilling development locations disclosed in this MD&A, 93.1 net are proved and 45.6 net are probable undeveloped locations in the McDaniel Reserve Report at year end 2024. Of those heavy oil locations, a total of 8.0 net Figure Lake proved undeveloped,

4.5 net North Waseca proved undeveloped, 4.5 net North Waseca probable undeveloped, and 3.0 South Waseca proved undeveloped have been drilled through 2025. There are 9.5 net proven natural gas locations and 4.4 net probable natural gas locations in the McDaniel Reserve Report at year end 2024. Of those natural gas locations, a total of 1.0 net proven undeveloped gas location has been drilled through 2025. Unbooked drilling locations are the internal estimates of Rubellite based on Rubellite's or the acquired assets prospective acreage and an assumption as to the number of wells that can be drilled per section based on industry practice and internal review. Unbooked locations do not have attributed reserves or resources (including contingent and prospective). Unbooked locations have been identified by Rubellite's management as an estimation of Rubellite's multi-year drilling activities based on evaluation of applicable geologic, seismic, engineering, production and reserves information. There is no certainty that Rubellite will drill all unbooked drilling locations and if drilled there is no certainty that such locations will result in additional oil and natural gas reserves, resources or production. The drilling locations on which Rubellite will actually drill wells, including the number and timing thereof is ultimately dependent upon the availability of funding, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, additional reservoir information that is obtained and other factors. While a certain number of the unbooked drilling locations have been de-risked by Rubellite drilling existing wells in relative close proximity to such unbooked drilling locations, the majority of other unbooked drilling locations are farther away from existing wells where management of Rubellite has less information about the characteristics of the reservoir and therefore there is more uncertainty whether wells will be drilled in such locations and if drilled there is more uncertainty that such wells will result in additional oil and gas reserves, resources or production.

Oil and natural gas revenue has ranged between $27.2 million and $66.6 million over the prior eight quarters largely due to increasing sales volumes from 4,209 boe/d to 12,425 boe/d, partially offset by volatility in commodity pricing. Net income (loss) has ranged between a loss of

$4.2 million and income of $26.7 million primarily due to increased production, corporate acquisitions and dispositions, volatility of commodity prices and its impact on revenue, royalties and realized and unrealized risk management contract gains and losses and deferred income taxes.
