- GENERAL INFORMATION
Spartan Delta Corp. ("Spartan" or the "Company") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) on March 20, 2006. The Company is engaged in exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas properties in western Canada. The Company does not have any subsidiaries as at September 30, 2026 (note 19). Spartan's common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and trade under the symbol "SDE". The Company's head office is located at 1400, 350 - 7th Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta T2P 3N9 and its registered office address is 4200 Bankers Hall West, 888 - 3rd Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta T2P 5C5.
- BASIS OF PREPARATION
- Statement of compliance
These condensed interim financial statements as at September 30, 2026 (the "Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards") applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Certain disclosures included in the notes to the annual financial statements have been condensed in the following interim note disclosures or have been disclosed on an annual basis only. Accordingly, these Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Annual Financial Statements").
The Company's Board of Directors approved these Financial Statements on November 3, 2026.
- Basis of measurement
Unless otherwise indicated, all references to dollar amounts in these Financial Statements and related notes are in thousands of Canadian dollars ("CA$"), which is the functional and presentation currency of the Company.
The Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are recorded at fair value as detailed in the accounting policies disclosed in note 3 of the 2025 Annual Financial Statements.
- Significant estimates and judgements
The timely preparation of the Financial Statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are reviewed and for any future years affected. Significant judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management in these Financial Statements are consistent with those outlined in note 2 of the 2025 Annual Financial Statements.
- Statement of compliance
- MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The material accounting policies applied by the Company are described in note 3 of the 2025 Annual Financial Statements. The Financial Statements as at September 30, 2026 have been prepared following the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the 2025 Annual Financial Statements, unless otherwise noted below.
IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures and IFRS 9, Financial InstrumentsEffective January 1, 2026, the Company adopted amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and IFRS
9 Financial Instruments relating to settling financial liabilities using electronic payment systems and assessing contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets. The Company has applied the practical expedient for financial liabilities settled through electronic payment systems. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
- Future Accounting Changes
IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
In April 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements ("IFRS 18") to replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 sets out requirements for the presentation and disclosure of information in the financial statements, including a new structure for the Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss), disclosure of management-defined performance measures and enhanced guidance on the aggregation and disaggregation of information. IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, including interim reporting periods, and is required to be applied retrospectively. Upon adoption, comparative-period information will also be presented under IFRS 18. The Company's assessment of the new standard is ongoing and it expects structural and presentation changes to the Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Statements of Cash Flows.
Upon adoption, certain income and expenses will be presented within newly required investing and financing categories of the Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Interest income and gains (losses) arising from changes in the fair value of marketable securities will be presented within the investing category, as these amounts are generated from assets that earn returns independently of the Company's core oil and gas operations. Other expenses including interest incurred on debt obligations, financing costs of lease liabilities and the accretion of decommissioning obligations, will be presented within the financing category. As a result, these amounts will no longer be included in operating profit (loss). These presentation changes will have a corresponding impact on the Statements of Cash Flows under the new standard.
The Company will continue to evaluate the impacts of IFRS 18 until adoption on January 1, 2027 including finalizing the identification of management-defined performance measures and implementation of the related presentation and disclosure requirements. The adoption of IFRS 18 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
- Future Accounting Changes
- FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
As at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, financial instruments of the Company include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, deposits, marketable securities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, dividends payable, derivative financial instruments and long-term debt. The fair values of these financial assets and liabilities, excluding debt, approximate their carrying value due to the short term to maturity of those instruments. The fair value of debt approximates its carrying value given it bears floating rates of interest (note 11). The methodologies used to determine the fair value for the Company's derivative financial instruments and marketable securities are described further in this note and note 5, respectively. Lease liabilities are financial liabilities measured at amortized cost.
The Company is exposed to financial risks arising from its financial assets and liabilities that include credit and liquidity risk, market risks associated with commodity prices and interest and foreign exchange rates. Net income (loss), cash flows and the fair value of financial assets and liabilities may fluctuate due to movement in market prices or as a result of the Company's exposure to credit and liquidity risks.
Risk Management OverviewSpartan's risk management objective is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable limits, while maximizing long-term returns. The Company uses derivative financial instruments and physical delivery sales contracts to manage market risks. All such transactions are conducted in accordance with the Company's established risk management policies that permit management to enter into derivative contracts, provided that: (i) the contracts are not entered into for speculative purposes; (ii) the aggregate quantity hedged, at the time of entering into the contract, does not exceed 75% of future forecasted average daily production (net, after royalties); and (iii) the contracted term does not exceed 36 months.
- Credit Risk
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, deposits, marketable securities and derivative financial instrument assets represent the Company's maximum credit exposure. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are held on deposit with Canadian chartered banks and collection risk on derivative financial instrument assets is mitigated by a cross-default provision under the Credit Facility (defined herein). The Company's credit risk exposure arises primarily from receivables from oil and gas marketers and joint venture partners.
The composition of the Company's accounts receivable is set out in the following table:
(CA$ thousands)

Joint venture partners

GST receivable and other
727
2,690
Accounts receivable
96,927
62,064
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, sales to four oil and gas customers represented more than 10% of oil and gas sales (before royalties) and accounted for approximately 69% of total oil and gas sales revenue (before royalties). During the year ended December 31, 2025, sales to four customers accounted for approximately 63% of total oil and gas sales (before royalties). Spartan's oil and gas customers are primarily large, credit-worthy institutions.
The aging of the Company's accounts receivable is summarized as follows:

The oil and gas industry has a pre-arranged monthly clearing day for payment of revenues from all buyers of oil and natural gas; this occurs on the 25th day following the month of sale. As a result, the Company's production receivables are current. All other accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days, however, the collection period is typically between 61 to 90 days. Amounts outstanding for more than 90 days are considered "past due" and relate primarily to receivables from the Company's joint venture partners. When determining whether amounts that are past due are collectible, management assesses the creditworthiness and past payment history of the counterparty, as well as the nature of the past due amount. As at September 30, 2026, management has reviewed the accounts receivable balances and has provided for approximately $1.4 million within the expected credit loss provision ($1.3 million at December 31, 2025).
- Liquidity Risks
Liquidity risk is the risk that a company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company's financial liabilities as at September 30, 2026 include accounts payable, dividends payable, derivative financial instrument liabilities and long-term debt. In addition, the Company has financial commitments in respect of lease liabilities (note 9).
The Company prepares and regularly updates its capital and operating budget to forecast future cash flows to ensure, to the extent possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations. As at September 30, 2026, Spartan had
$260.8 million drawn ($161.7 million drawn as at December 31, 2025) on its revolving Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility") with an authorized borrowing amount of $700.0 million (note 11).
The Company has sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months as current cash balances of $151.4 million (cash and restricted cash), future cash flow from operations and access to the remaining undrawn Credit Facility is expected to exceed the Company's financial obligations (including the dividends payable).
The following table outlines a contractual maturity analysis for the Company's financial liabilities and undiscounted lease liabilities as at September 30, 2026:

The Credit Facility (defined in note 11) was drawn $260.8 million as at September 30, 2026. The table above includes estimated interest to be incurred on the $260.8 million drawn balance and standby charges on the undrawn balance, up to April 30, 2028. All figures presented in the table are calculated based on the Credit Facility's capacity as at September 30, 2026.
As at September 30, 2026, the present value of the Company's total lease liability was $12.1 million, of which $6.5 million in principal repayments are expected to be settled in the next twelve months.
- Market Risks
Market risk is the risk that changes in market conditions such as commodity prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates, will affect the Company's cash flows, net income or fair value of financial instruments. Spartan's risk management objective is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable limits, while maximizing long-term returns. The Company utilizes both derivative financial instruments and physical delivery sales contracts to manage market risks. All such transactions are conducted in accordance with the Company's risk management policies.
Commodity price risk
Inherent to the business of producing oil and gas, the Company's revenue and cash provided by operating activities is subject to commodity price risk. Commodity price risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in commodity prices. Commodity prices are impacted by world economic events that dictate the levels of supply and demand as well as the currency exchange rate relationship between the Canadian and U.S. dollar.
As at September 30, 2026, Spartan has commodity price risk management contracts in place to protect cash flows and project economics. These instruments are not used for trading or speculative purposes. The Company has not designated its financial derivative contracts as effective accounting hedges, even though the Company considers all commodity contracts to be effective economic hedges. As a result, all such financial commodity contracts are recorded on the Statements of Financial Position at fair value, with changes in the fair value being recognized as an unrealized gain or loss through the Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

The prices and volumes in this table represent averages for contracts represented in the respective periods.
CA$ WTI swaps are translated at the average daily noon rate for the settlement month.
AECO 5A swaps are settled the first day of the month following delivery based on an arithmetic average of the daily AECO index settlements in the preceding month.
AECO 7A swaps are settled the first day of the month based on a weighted average of the previous month's fixed price trades.
Subsequent to September 30, 2026, Spartan entered into additional natural gas swaps for 2027, 2028 and 2029 (see note 20).
The fair values of derivative financial instruments are designated as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and are highly sensitive to changes in underlying commodity prices. The table below illustrates the stand-alone impact of changes in specified benchmark prices on net income before income taxes, holding all other variables constant, of risk management contracts in place as at September 30, 2026:

Foreign exchange risk
Currency risk is the risk that future cash flows will change as a result of fluctuations in the Canadian to U.S. dollar exchange rate. Spartan is exposed to currency risk given the Company's realized pricing in Canadian dollars is directly influenced by U.S. dollar denominated benchmark pricing. The Company is also exposed to currency fluctuations through its U.S. dollar commodity sales. In addition, Spartan is exposed to currency risk on U.S. cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable balances, however, the Company's currency exposure based on U.S. dollar denominated working capital balances outstanding at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was not significant.
The table below summarizes the realized and unrealized components of the foreign exchange gain (loss) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

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 on long-term debt which bears floating rates of interest. Under the Credit Facility (note 11), interest rates fluctuate based on the bank prime rate plus an applicable margin, which varies based on the Company's net debt to cash flow ratio each quarter. Based on the balance of long-term debt outstanding at September 30, 2026, an increase (decrease) in the market rate of interest by 50 basis points would increase (decrease) annualized interest expense by approximately $1.3 million.
Gains and losses on derivative financial instrumentsThe table below summarizes the realized and unrealized components of gains and losses on the Company's derivative financial instruments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

- MARKETABLE SECURITIES
During the second quarter of 2026, Spartan entered into a share purchase agreement, pursuant to which the Company acquired common shares of an unrelated entity in exchange for the issuance of 2,422,500 common shares. The acquired shares are deemed to be financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments. On initial recognition, the Company measured the investment at fair value as determined using observable market data at the transaction date.
The investment is accounted for at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"). Changes in fair value are recognized in the Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The fair value measurement is categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, as it is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

PP&E includes both infrastructure and producing oil and gas properties. The fair value of acquired infrastructure was determined based on the replacement cost with an adjustment for the age and depreciated value of the facilities. The fair value of producing assets acquired was estimated based on fair value less costs of disposal ("FVLCD") methodology (Level 3 fair value measurement), calculated using the present value of the expected future cash flows after-tax. The projected cash flows used in the FVLCD calculation were derived from reports on the acquired oil and gas reserves.
The aggregate fair value of decommissioning obligations acquired of $8.7 million was estimated by discounting the inflated cost estimates using "credit-adjusted risk-free rates" of 6.45% on the respective closing dates of the acquisitions. Subsequent remeasurement of the decommissioning obligations acquired at a risk-free rate, under Spartan's accounting policy, resulted in an increase in the present value of decommissioning obligations acquired by $4.2 million to $12.9 million in aggregate.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company acquired additional Duvernay and Deep Basin undeveloped land and minor asset acquisitions as part of its growth strategy.
Willesden Green Acquisition
On March 10, 2026, the Company closed an acquisition of infrastructure, producing crude oil and natural gas properties and undeveloped land for cash consideration of $12.1 million after adjustments; the effective date of the acquisition was August 1, 2025 (the "Willesden Green Acquisition" or "WG Acq").
The Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 include the results of operations for the acquired assets from the closing date of March 10, 2026. Specifically, Spartan's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, includes $0.5 million of revenue (after royalties)
and $0.2 million of operating income generated from the acquired assets. "Operating income" does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS.
For purposes of this pro-forma disclosure, the Company has calculated operating income as revenue (after royalties), less operating and transportation expenses. If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2026, pro-forma revenue and operating income is estimated to be approximately $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The pro-forma information provided herein is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations had the acquisition been effected on January 1, 2026, or the results that may be obtained in the future.
Gilby Acquisition
On May 1, 2026, the Company closed an acquisition of infrastructure and producing crude oil and natural gas properties for cash consideration of $12.7 million after adjustments; the effective date of the acquisition was March 1, 2026 (the "Gilby Acquisition" or "Gilby Acq").
The Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 include the results of operations for the acquired assets from the closing date of May 1, 2026. Spartan's net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, includes $3.1 million of revenue (after royalties) and $0.3 million of operating income generated from the acquired assets.
For purposes of this pro-forma disclosure, the Company has calculated operating income as revenue (after royalties), less operating and transportation expenses. If the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2026, pro-forma revenue and operating income is estimated to be approximately $5.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and is based on an extrapolation of the 2025 lease operating statement for the acquired properties. The pro-forma information provided herein is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations had the acquisition been effected on January 1, 2026, or the results that may be obtained in the future.

Impairment of PP&E
Spartan reviews its CGUs for indicators of potential impairment at the end of each reporting period. As at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there are no indicators of impairment.
- LEASES
The Company has various lease contracts in place for compression equipment, facilities, office buildings and vehicles. Spartan's lease obligations and corresponding Right-of-Use ("ROU") assets are recognized initially based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, except for certain short-term leases which have been charged to general and administrative expenses or operating expenses, as appropriate depending on the nature of the lease, in the Statements of Net Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The Company's lease agreements for processing facilities included a termination option requiring acquisition of the underlying asset upon exercise. At commencement, this option was excluded from lease recognition as a variable lease payment not based on an index or rate. This option was exercisable, at the discretion of the lessor, from May 15, 2026 to June 30, 2026 and as at June 30, 2026, the option expired unexercised.

The Company has short term leases in place primarily for equipment with contract terms less than twelve months expensed within operating expenses. The total amount expensed in respect of short-term leases was approximately
$1.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 (nine months ended September 30, 2025 - $0.9 million).
- DECOMMISSIONING OBLIGATIONS
Decommissioning obligations arise as a result of the Company's net ownership interests in crude oil and natural gas assets including well sites, processing facilities and other infrastructure.

The underlying cost estimates are derived from a combination of published industry benchmarks as well as site specific information. As at September 30, 2026, the total undiscounted amount of the estimated cash flows required to settle the obligation is $141.4 million ($119.4 million as of December 31, 2025), of which, Spartan expects to incur approximately $69.2 million over the next 20 years, $71.2 million in 20 to 50 years and the residual thereafter. The estimated inflated undiscounted future cash flows required to settle the obligation is $233.5 million at September 30, 2026 based on an inflation rate of 2.0% on average over the restoration period (December 31, 2025 - $195.3 million based on an inflation rate of 2.0%).
As at September 30, 2026, the carrying amount of the decommissioning obligations is based on a risk-free rate of 4.30% (3.85% at December 31, 2025). The increase in discount rate resulted in a decrease in the carrying amount of decommissioning obligations by $8.0 million as at September 30, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025.
Key assumptions used in measuring the decommissioning obligations include inflation rate, risk-free rate, and timing of asset retirement, which are subject to uncertainty. Changes in these assumptions would have the following impact on the decommissioning obligations:

During the second quarter of 2026, the Company completed an off-cycle borrowing base review and amended its Credit Facility, increasing the size from $450.0 million to $700.0 million, converting the facility to a two-year revolving term and removing the financial covenant. The authorized borrowing base is comprised of a $100.0 million operating facility and a $600.0 million syndicated facility. As at September 30, 2026, the Credit Facility was $260.8 million drawn.
The Credit Facility has a revolving period until April 30, 2028, extendible annually at the request of the Company, subject to approval of the Lenders. The borrowing base is subject to semi-annual reviews, and the Credit Facility may also be subject to redetermination throughout the revolving period. The next borrowing base review is anticipated to be completed on or before November 30, 2026.
The Company continues to be subject to other standard business operating covenants, including but not limited to certain restrictions on acquisitions and dispositions, distributions and hedging arrangements. As at September 30, 2026, Spartan is in compliance with all covenants.
The Credit Facility is secured by a first fixed and floating charge debenture over all the Company's assets and a general assignment of book debts. Repayments of principal are not required until the maturity date, provided that the borrowings do not exceed the authorized borrowing base and the Company is in compliance with all covenants, representations and warranties.
Interest is payable monthly for borrowings through direct advances under the Credit Facility. Interest rates fluctuate based on bank prime rate plus an applicable margin. Under the Credit Facility, borrowings through the use of term Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average ("CORRA") loans are available at the CORRA rate, plus applicable stamping fees. The Company incurs standby fees on the undrawn facility which also fluctuate based on the pricing grid.
The Company has a demand letter of credit facility which provides Spartan with $10.0 million of additional credit capacity to issue letters of credit. The letters of credit may be issued for general corporate purposes and are limited to a term of one year from the date of issuance. Letter of credit obligations are repayable on demand. As at September 30, 2026, there are $1.7 million of issued and outstanding letters of credit under the letter of credit facility (December 31, 2025 -
$1.7 million).

During the year ended December 31, 2025, 2.8 million options were granted having a vesting schedule of 10% vesting on the first anniversary, 20% vesting on the second anniversary and 70% vesting on the third anniversary.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, 341,000 stock options were exercised (2025 - Nil) at a weighted average exercise price of $3.43 per option. The Company received cash proceeds of $1.2 million (2025 - $Nil) and issued 341,000 common shares (2025 - Nil) upon the exercise of these options. An amount of $0.4 million (2025 -
$Nil) was reclassified from contributed surplus to share capital.
The fair value of stock options granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with weighted average assumptions as follows:

(1) Spartan has estimated the expected volatility over the life of the option based on a peer group average for intermediate oil and gas companies. A peer group average was used because the Company's historical share price volatility is not expected to be representative of future volatility due to Spartan's significant changes over the previous three years.

- Share awards
The Company has a share award incentive plan, pursuant to which the Company may grant RSAs and PSAs to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company.
The share awards, being RSAs or PSAs as applicable, granted under the share award incentive plan are intended to be settled through the issuance of common shares upon vesting. The Board of Directors shall not grant new share awards under the plan if the number of shares issuable pursuant to outstanding share awards, when combined with the number of shares issuable pursuant to outstanding stock options granted under the Company's stock option plan, would exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares at the time of the grant. RSAs granted shall vest as to one-third (1/3) on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the award date and PSAs shall vest on the third anniversary of the award date, unless otherwise stipulated by the Board or Compensation Committee at the time of granting the share award, and subject to earlier vesting in accordance with the plan.
There were no PSAs outstanding as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The Company expects to have sufficient taxable profits in the future to utilize its NCLs which expire in years 2039 to 2045 and has recognized the deferred tax asset related to NCLs.
Under IFRS Accounting Standards, deferred income tax assets may only be recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which unused tax losses and deductible temporary differences can be utilized. The Company expects to have sufficient taxable profits in the future to utilize its non-capital losses.
Uncertain Tax PositionsOn February 14, 2025, the Company received a reassessment from the Canada Revenue Agency (the "CRA") for a previously amalgamated subsidiary that restricts the deductibility of non-capital losses relevant to the calculation of income taxes. The reassessment seeks to disallow the carry forward of approximately $217.8 million of these non-capital losses under the Income Tax Act (Canada). Spartan remains confident in the appropriateness of its tax filing position and intends to vigorously defend it. As such, Spartan has not recognized any provision in its Financial Statements with respect to the reassessment.
During the second quarter of 2025, Spartan filed a notice of objection for the CRA reassessment and, if necessary, will subsequently file an appeal directly to the Tax Court of Canada. If Spartan is unsuccessful in this matter, then the Company would derecognize the corresponding deferred tax asset resulting in an ending deferred tax liability position, shortening its estimated tax horizon.
Successored Resource PoolsIn 2023, the CRA processed the Company's filing of a 66.7 election in connection with a previously acquired asset. On July 7, 2026, the Company received a reassessment confirming the transfer of these resource pools to Spartan. The CRA, however, denied certain discretionary claims in relation to these pools made in two of the years at issue, namely the 2021 and 2022 taxation years. Spartan disagrees with the CRA's position on the use of these pools in the aforementioned years and Spartan has sought judicial review at the Federal Court seeking to set aside CRA's denial of the discretionary claims and redetermination. Spartan does not expect the outcome to have a material impact on the Company.

- CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Spartan's capital management objectives are to maintain a flexible capital structure in order to respond to changes in economic conditions, execute on strategic opportunities throughout the business cycle, meet its financial obligations, and to fund current and future settlements of decommissioning obligations. The Company seeks to create long-term shareholder value by prioritizing profitability over production growth, as well as investing in projects that are expected to strengthen its overall asset portfolio and suite of internally generated prospects.
As at September 30, 2026, the Company's capital structure is comprised of adjusted working capital, debt and shareholders' equity. The significant components of the Company's capital structure are summarized below:

"Working capital" is calculated as current assets less current liabilities. "Working capital deficit" represents the amount by which current liabilities exceed current assets at the reporting date.
"Adjusted Working Capital" is calculated as current assets less current liabilities, excluding derivative financial instruments and lease liabilities. As at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Adjusted Working Capital includes cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and deposits, marketable securities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, dividends payable and the current portion of decommissioning obligations.
Adjusted Working Capital and Net Debt are not standardized measures and therefore may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures by other entities. Spartan uses Adjusted Working Capital and Net Debt as capital management measures of the Company's financial position and liquidity.
Spartan's Adjusted Working Capital deficit of $107.7 million at September 30, 2026 increased from the Adjusted Working Capital deficit of $44.1 million at December 31, 2025. The capital-intensive nature of Spartan's operations may create working capital fluctuations during periods with varying levels of capital investment, however the Company maintains sufficient unused bank credit lines to satisfy working capital deficiencies when they occur. The Company has sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months to meet working capital requirements with the current cash balances of $151.4 million (including restricted cash), future cash flow from operations and access to the remaining undrawn balance on the Credit Facility (note 11), all of which are expected to meet the Company's financial obligations (including the dividends payable).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company's primary sources of funds were $294.3 million of cash provided by operating activities, $96.6 million of bank advances, net of costs, on the Credit Facility, $1.2 million from the exercise of options, and a change of $88.7 million of non-cash working capital in investing activities. Spartan used its cash provided by operating activities, advances on the Credit Facility, exercise of options and the change in non-cash working capital to fund the Company's exploration and development capital expenditures of $446.1 million,
$28.0 million of acquisitions and $6.4 million for lease principal payments.
The Company monitors its capital structure and short-term financing requirements using a "Net Debt to Annualized AFF Ratio", which is calculated by Spartan as the Company's Net Debt (calculated above) relative to its "Annualized Adjusted Funds Flow" (calculated below). The reader is cautioned that "Net Debt" and "Adjusted Funds Flow" do not have standardized meanings under IFRS Accounting Standards may not be directly comparable to measures of other companies where similar terminology is used. Spartan calculates "Adjusted Funds Flow" by deducting lease payments and adding back transaction costs on acquisitions/dispositions and the change in non-cash working capital to cash provided by operating activities. Spartan utilizes Adjusted Funds Flow as a key performance measure in the Company's annual financial forecasts and public guidance because it reflects the net cash flow generated from routine business operations. Adjusted Funds Flow is reported net of cash lease payments in the year, therefore Spartan believes Adjusted Funds Flow is an appropriate metric to compare relative to its Net Debt which does not include lease liabilities. "Annualized Adjusted Funds Flow" is calculated by multiplying Adjusted Funds Flow for the most recently completed quarter, normalized for significant non-recurring items, by a factor of 4; management considers this annualized measure to be more representative of the Company's current financial position than a 12-month trailing measure. Management believes that the Net Debt to Annualized AFF Ratio provides investors with information to understand the Company's liquidity risk and its ability to repay long-term debt and fund future capital expenditures.

(1) The Annualized Adjusted Funds Flow reflects ongoing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, multiplied by a factor of four (4).
As at September 30, 2026, Spartan had Net Debt of $365.7 million, which is approximately 0.8 times the Company's Annualized Adjusted Funds Flow for the third quarter of 2026. Net Debt of $365.7 million at September 30, 2026 increased from the prior year primarily as a result of the Company's exploration, development and acquisition activities which created a free funds flow deficit.
The Company's existing capital resources are sufficient to satisfy its financial obligations for the next twelve months and Spartan is well positioned to execute on its short and longer term growth strategy. The Company's exploration and
development capital expenditures for 2026 are expected to be funded by a combination of cash provided by operating activities and supplemented by the unutilized Credit Facility during periods of high capital investment.
As at September 30, 2026, the Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements other than the standard business operating covenants under the amended and restated Credit Facility, to which Spartan is in full compliance (note 11).
