Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - February 24, 2026) - Journey Energy Inc. (TSX: JOY) (OTCQX: JRNGF) ("Journey" or the "Company") is pleased to report its year-end 2025 oil and gas reserves evaluation.

2025 Reserve Report Highlights:

• Proved developed producing ("PDP") reserves decreased 11% to 31.7 MMboe, with a corresponding decrease of 10% in the net present value discounted at a rate of 10% ("NPV@10%") to $315.2 million. A reduction in forward pricing, for oil in particular, was largely offset by positive technical revisions, and the results of the 2025 drilling program. The PDP net asset value was $3.84 per fully diluted share.

• Proved plus probable developed producing ("P+PDP") reserves were 41.1 MMboe, with a corresponding NPV@10% of $393.7 million. The P+PDP net asset value was $4.96 per fully diluted share.

• Total proved ("TP") reserves decreased 2% to 49.5 MMboe. A reduction in future development capital ("FDC") from asset sales was more than offset by capital additions in the Duvernay with superior capital efficiency resulting in an increase of 3% in NPV@10% to $552.7 million. The TP net asset value was $8.21 per fully diluted share.

• Total proved plus probable ("TPP") reserves increased 1% to 86.3 MMboe, with a corresponding increase of 10% in NPV@10% to $972.0 million. The TPP net asset value was $14.17 per fully diluted share. Journey's increase in reserve value was achieved despite a reduction in the January 1, 2026 Three Consultants Average¹ near term pricing (2026 to 2030 inclusive) of 12% for WTI from $77.59 US$/bbl to $68.12 US$/bbl; and 6% for AECO gas from $3.62 CAD/MMBTU to $3.40 CAD/MMBTU. This upside was largely driven by positive revisions to the Duvernay reserve evaluation, reflecting the improved performance for the nine wells brought on since late 2024 and the booking of additional locations delineated by 2025 drilling.

• Journey achieved a significant increase in reserve bookings associated with Journey's participation in the Duvernay joint venture. 2025 year-end TPP reserves included 12 gross (3.6 net) producing wells and 70 gross (21.0 net) locations, resulting in a TPP value of $325 million.

• The majority of Journey's growth capital over the next few years will be allocated to the Duvernay joint venture. 2025 year-end TPP reserves for the Duvernay include $238 million of FDC, 80% of which is estimated to be spent during the 2026 to 2030 time period. During this period, the Three Consultants Average¹ forecast price for WTI is $68 US/bbl. The FDC adds reserves at a finding and development cost of $14.41 per boe, providing a 3.23:1 TPP recycle ratio given the $46.55/boe netback for the 2026 to 2030 period.

• Current Duvernay bookings represent approximately 40% of potential future locations. The $238 million FDC in the 2025 reserve report generates a before tax TPP value of $267 million (approximately $3.8 million per gross location). Journey has internally identified approximately 100 gross (30 net) unbooked future locations. This inventory has been significantly derisked by offsetting wells.

• Realized attractive F&D and FD&A of $16.10/boe and $22.12/boe respectively for TP reserves; and $12.36/boe and $16.36/boe respectively for TPP reserves. F&D costs exclude the impact of asset sales and are therefore more representative of the value creation within Journey's asset base.

• 72% of 2025 TPP reserve extensions were attributed to higher netback oil and liquids; 52% light & medium oil; 20% NGL's. Management believes recycle ratios calculated using Journey's current product mix are not reflective of the potential within Journey's undeveloped asset base. This is especially true given the 3.23:1 recycle ratio for the Duvernay development, and the Duvernay's dominance in the future capital expenditures.

• The $448 million of TPP undeveloped FDC in Journey's reserve report generates $524 million in future NPV@10%. The development wedge adds reserves at a development cost of approximately $10.96/boe, a cost which is consistent with Journey's historical averages.

• Over 80% of Journey's booked upside resides in four key oil weighted properties. Development of these properties, along with contributions from Journey's power business, is forecast to have a positive impact on netbacks, operating expenses and funds flow in future years.

• During 2025, Journey continued to advance its power business. By the end of the first quarter of 2026, the Gilby power project is forecast to be on-stream and the Mazeppa project will be in Stage 5 of approvals. Although not included in Journey's year-end NI 51-101 reserves, GLJ ran an economic model based upon Three Consultants' Average¹ pricing for natural gas and their view of future power prices. The economic value (before tax NPV@10%) of Journey's three power projects is approximately $74.9 million. Only $5.7 million of value, for the Countess power project, is on-stream today. Therefore, the power projects provide significant upside for Journey's producing net asset value since the remaining projects are expected to come on-stream in 2026. Although Journey sees significant future value for these projects, the volatility in power and natural gas prices over the medium term makes the valuation of these projects subject to significant volatility. To date, Journey has invested approximately $55 million in the three power projects.

• PDP and proved plus probable, developed, producing (P+PDP) reserve life indices were 8.7 and 11.0 years respectively. Journey's history of positive revisions and the long producing RLI are testaments to the Company's low decline and predictable asset base.

• Reduced total undiscounted, end-of-life, liability costs by $21 million in 2025 through asset sales and capital investments.

Note:
1) Forecast pricing used is the average of the published price forecasts for GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd., Sproule Associates Ltd. and McDaniel & Associates Ltd. as at December 31, 2025.

Unaudited Financial Information and 2025 Update Guidance

The preliminary financial information contained in this press release is not a comprehensive statement of the financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025. Journey's actual results may differ materially from these estimates due to the currently ongoing finalization of the financial statements. The Company's audited financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025, are expected to be released on March 11, 2026. Commensurate with the March 11, 2026 release, Journey plans on providing preliminary capital and production guidance for 2026, along with an update on the progress of the Power projects and the Duvernay joint venture.

COMPANY GROSS WORKING INTEREST OIL AND GAS RESERVES AND NET PRESENT VALUES

The following table provides summary information presented in the GLJ Petroleum Consultants Limited ("GLJ") independent reserves assessment and evaluation effective December 31, 2025, (the "GLJ Report"). GLJ evaluated 100% of Journey's crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas reserves. The evaluation of all of its oil and gas properties was prepared in accordance with the definitions, standards and procedures contained in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook ("COGE Handbook") and National Instrument 51-101, Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("NI 51-101").

The 2025 GLJ reserve report includes the abandonment and reclamation liability associated with all active and inactive wells, facilities, pipelines and gathering systems.

Detailed reserve information will be presented in the Company's upcoming Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information section of the Company's Annual Information Form scheduled to be filed on SEDAR on or before March 31, 2026.

Company Gross Reserves
Based on Three Consultants Average Price and Costs as at December 31, 2025

 
Notes:
⁽¹⁾ Company Gross Reserves consists of Journey's working interest (operated and non-operated) share of reserves before deduction of royalties payable and without including royalties receivable by the Company.
⁽²⁾ In the case of natural gas volumes, boe's are derived by converting natural gas to oil using the ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil (6 Mcf:1 bbl).
⁽³⁾ Total values may not add due to rounding.
⁽⁴⁾ NGL's include field condensate.

Net Present Values of Future Net Revenue (Based on Three Consultants Average Forecast Prices and Costs as at December 31, 2025)

 
Notes:
⁽¹⁾ The net present values presented in the above table do not include any value associated with the Power Projects.
⁽²⁾ Forecast pricing used is the average of the published price forecasts for GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd., Sproule Associates Ltd. and McDaniel & Associates Ltd. as at December 31, 2025.
⁽³⁾ It should not be assumed that the net present values of future net revenues estimated by GLJ represent fair market value of the reserves. There is no assurance that the forecast price and cost assumptions will be attained and variances could be material.
⁽⁴⁾ Total values may not add due to rounding.

The forecast prices and foreign exchange rates used in the GLJ Report are as follows:

Reserves Reconciliation

The following table sets out the reconciliation of Journey's total company gross reserves based on forecast prices and costs by principal product type at December 31, 2025 relative to December 31, 2024. Technical reserve revisions for 2025 were positive for Proved and TPP, whereas economic revisions were negative, primarily as a result of lower forecast pricing for year-end 2025 compared to year-end 2024.

FINDING, DEVELOPMENT AND ACQUISITION COSTS

Journey's finding and development ("F&D") and finding, development and acquisition ("FD&A") costs for 2025, 2024 and the three-year average are presented in the tables below. The capital costs used in the calculations are those costs related to: land acquisition and retention, seismic, drilling, completions, tangible well site, tie-ins, and facilities, plus the change in estimated future development costs ("FDC") as per the independent evaluator's reserve report. Net acquisition costs are the cash outlays in respect of acquisitions; minus the proceeds from the disposition of properties during the year. Due to the timing of capital costs and the subjectivity in the estimation of future costs, the aggregate of the exploration and development costs incurred in the most recent financial year and the change during that year in estimated FDC's generally will not necessarily reflect total FDC's related to reserve additions for that year. The reserves used in this calculation are working interest reserve additions, including technical revisions and changes due to economic factors. The 2025 and the three-year average capital expenditures are currently unaudited as the 2025 financial results are in the process of being finalized. For the unaudited information see the reconciliation of the capital expenditures below which are as of the date of this press release.

Journey management believes that the current conventional calculation of recycle ratios, which use corporate netbacks, are somewhat understated due to the changing nature of Journey's production mix. Specifically, 2025 reflected a period of low commodity prices for natural gas. Natural gas made up 39% of Journey's reported sales volumes in 2025 resulting in a significant reduction in operating netback. Journey's future upside is liquids (crude oil and NGLs) focused, with over 80% of the upside value attributed to four key oil weighted properties. This is forecast to improve netbacks over time. Specifically, the 2026 to 2030 recycle ratio for the Duvernay development is 3.23:1.

 
Notes:
⁽¹⁾ Recycle ratio is calculated by taking the operating netback per boe and dividing it by the F&D or FD&A costs per boe as applicable. The operating netbacks used in the respective years are as follows: 2025 (unaudited) - $20.50/boe; 2024 - $16.46/boe and the unaudited three-year average is $18.29/boe (see full reconciliation in the "Advisories" section).
⁽²⁾ Future Development Costs have been adjusted for the effects of reserves categorized as acquisitions and dispositions.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The following table provides the breakdown of future development costs deducted in the estimation of the future net revenue attributable to the proved and proved plus probable reserve categories noted below:

RESERVE LIFE INDEX

The Company's reserve life index ("RLI") is calculated by taking the Company Gross Reserves from the GLJ Report and dividing them by the projected 2026 production as estimated in the GLJ Report.

NET ASSET VALUE

The following table provides a calculation of Journey's estimated net asset value ("NAV") and net asset value per share ("NAVPS") at December 31, 2025 based on the estimated future net revenues associated with Journey's reserves as presented in the GLJ Report. Journey's share count remained relatively stable in 2025.

NAV does not include any amounts for Journey's undeveloped land or seismic database. However, NAV in the table below includes the future discounted cash flows of Journey's Countess Power Project ("CPP"), Gilby Power Project ("GPP"), and Mazeppa Power Project ("MPP") based upon an economic run completed by GLJ and using their pricing assumptions. The values used for Journey's power business in the calculation of net asset value are summarized below. Journey's Power Projects are not a part of Journey's year-end reserves and were modelled separately by GLJ.

The following table represents year end power 10% NPV as evaluated by GLJ:

 
Notes:
(1) Effective April 1, 2025 changes were made to the Federal Government's industrial carbon pricing regime that had a positive impact on the values of Journey's oil and gas and power operations. After March 31, 2025 only large emitters are under the purview of the Federal and provincial carbon pricing regimes. Journey does not currently have any facilities that are considered to be large emitters.

The following table represents year end 10% NPV for reserves plus power as evaluated by GLJ:

 
Notes:
(1) Aggregate NAV is calculated by taking the future net revenues per the GLJ report, on a before tax basis, discounted at 10% and subtracting net debt at December 31, 2025 (See Advisories section) of approximately $50,558 thousand (unaudited); (December 31, 2024 - $60,320 thousand).
(2) Year-end NAVPS is calculated by taking the NAV and dividing it by the fully diluted shares (See Advisory section below) outstanding as at December 31, 2025 of 70,301 thousand shares (December 31, 2024 - 69,591 thousand). All share counts have been rounded to the nearest 1,000 shares.

Non-IFRS Measures

This press release contains certain financial measures and ratios which do not have standardized meanings prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS Accounting Standards") or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). As these non-GAAP financial measures and ratios are commonly used in the oil and gas industry, Journey believes that their inclusion is useful to investors. The reader is cautioned that these amounts may not be directly comparable to measures for other companies where similar terminology is used. The non-GAAP measures and ratios used in this press release, represented by the capitalized and defined terms outlined below, are used by Journey as key measures of financial performance, and are not intended to represent operating profits nor should they be viewed as an alternative to cash provided by operating activities, net income or other measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

1) "Operating income" and "Operating Netback(s)". The Company uses netbacks to help evaluate its performance, leverage, and liquidity; comparisons with peers; as well as to assess potential acquisitions. Management considers netbacks as a key performance measure as it demonstrates the Company's profitability relative to current commodity prices. Management also uses them in operational and capital allocation decisions. Journey uses netbacks to assess its own performance and performance in relation to its peers. These netbacks are operating, Funds Flow and net income (loss). "Operating income" is calculated as the average sales price of the commodities sold (excluding financial hedging gains and losses), less royalties, transportation costs and operating expenses. There is no GAAP measure that is reasonably comparable to operating income. The Company refers to Operating Netback expressed per unit of sales volume as an "Operating Netback" and reports the Operating Netback before and after hedging, both of which are non-GAAP financial ratios. Journey considers Operating Netback an important measure to evaluate its operational performance as it demonstrates its field level profitability relative to current commodity prices and is also relevant for comparisons to Journey's peers. Below is the reconciliation of the Operating Netback for Journey for 2025, 2024, and the three year average:

2) "Net debt" is calculated by taking current assets and then subtracting accounts payable and accrued liabilities; and the principal amount of term debt, convertible debentures, and other loans. Net debt is used to assess the capital efficiency, liquidity and general financial strength of the Company. In addition, it is used as a comparison tool to assess financial strength in relation to Journey's peers.

 
3) Journey uses "Capital Expenditures (excluding A&D)" and "Capital Expenditures (including A&D)" to measure its capital investment level compared to the Company's annual budgeted capital expenditures for its organic capital program, excluding acquisitions or dispositions. The directly comparable GAAP measure to capital expenditures is cash used in investing activities. Journey then adjusts its capital expenditures for A&D activity to give a more complete analysis of its capital spending used for FD&A purposes. The capital spending for A&D proposes has been adjusted to reflect the non-cash component of the consideration paid (i.e. shares issued). The following table details the composition of capital expenditures and its reconciliation to cash flow used in investing activities:

4) Share Capital

Journey's common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and trade under the symbol "JOY". As of December 31, 2025, there were 67.3 million common shares outstanding (67.1 million as at December 31, 2024). The table below summarizes the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and the fully diluted shares outstanding for the respective years:

For purposes of calculating the NAVPS the dilution impact from the convertible debentures (7,600 thousand) shares has been excluded as the conversion price of $5.00 is out-of-the-money.

Measurements

All dollar figures included herein are presented in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

Where amounts are expressed in a barrel of oil equivalent ("boe"), or barrel of oil equivalent per day ("boe/d"), natural gas volumes have been converted to barrels of oil equivalent at nine (6) thousand cubic feet ("Mcf") to one (1) barrel. Use of the term boe may be misleading particularly if used in isolation. The boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf to 1 barrel ("Bbl") of oil or natural gas liquids is based on an energy equivalency conversion methodology primarily applicable at the burner tip, and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. This conversion factor is an industry accepted norm and is not based on either energy content or current prices. References to "oil" in this press release include light, medium and heavy crude oil, combined. NI 51-101 includes condensate within the product type of "natural gas liquids". References to "natural gas liquids" or "NGLs" include pentane, butane, propane, and ethane. References to "gas" or "natural gas" relates to conventional natural gas. References to "liquids" includes crude oil, condensate and NGLs.

All volumes in this press release refer to the sales volumes of crude oil, natural gas and associated by-products measured at the point of sale to third-party purchasers. For natural gas, this occurs after the removal of natural gas liquids.

Reserves Disclosure

The reserves information and data provided in this press release presents only a portion of the disclosure required under NI 51-101. Journey's Form 51-101F1 - Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information dated effective as at December 31, 2025, which includes further disclosure of Journey's oil and gas reserves and other oil and gas information in accordance with NI 51-101 and COGEH, forming the basis of this press release, will be included in the Company's Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2024, which will be available on or before March 31, 2026 on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

All reserves values, future net revenue and ancillary information contained in this press release are derived from the GLJ Report unless otherwise noted. All reserve references in this press release are "Company gross reserves". Company gross reserves are the Company's total working interest reserves before the deduction of any royalties payable by the Company. Estimates of reserves and future net revenue for individual properties may not reflect the same level of confidence as estimates of reserves and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effect of aggregation. There is no assurance that the forecast price and cost assumptions applied by GLJ in evaluating Journey's reserves will be attained and variances could be material. All reserves assigned in the GLJ Report are located in the Province of Alberta and presented on a consolidated basis.

All evaluations and summaries of future net revenue are stated prior to the provision for interest, debt service charges or general and administrative expenses and after deduction of royalties, operating costs, estimated well abandonment and reclamation costs and estimated future capital expenditures. It should not be assumed that the estimates of future net revenues presented in the tables below represent the fair market value of the reserves. The recovery and reserve estimates of Journey's oil, NGLs and natural gas reserves provided herein are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual oil, natural gas and NGL reserves may be greater than or less than the estimates provided herein. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of crude oil, reserves and the future cash flows attributed to such reserves. The reserve and associated cash flow information set forth herein are estimates only.

Proved reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves. Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves. Proved developed producing reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from completion intervals open at the time of the estimate. These reserves may be currently producing or, if shut-in, they must have previously been on production, and the date of resumption of production must be known with reasonable certainty. Undeveloped reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (e.g., when compared to the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves category (proved or probable) to which they are assigned. Certain terms used in this press release but not defined are defined in NI 51-101, CSA Staff Notice 51-324 - Revised Glossary to NI 51-101, Revised Glossary to NI 51-101, Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities ("CSA Staff Notice 51-324") and/or the COGEH and, unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the same meanings herein as in NI 51-101, CSA Staff Notice 51-324 and the COGEH, as the case may be.

Drilling Locations
This press release discloses drilling inventory in two categories: (a) proved locations; and (b) probable locations. Proved locations and probable locations are derived from the GLJ Report and account for drilling locations that have associated proved and/or probable reserves, as applicable.

Of the 108 net total booked drilling locations identified herein, 52 are net proved locations and 56 are net probable locations.

"Development capital" means the aggregate exploration and development costs incurred in the financial year on reserves that are categorized as development. Development capital excludes capitalized administration costs.

"FDC" Future development costs are the future capital cost estimated for each respective category in year- end reserves attributed with realizing those reserves and associated future net revenue.

"Finding and development costs" Journey calculates F&D costs, including FDC, as the sum of "Capital Expenditures, before A&D" (as defined under "Non-GAAP Measures") and the change in FDC required to bring the reserves on production, divided by the change in reserves within the applicable reserves category. Management uses F&D costs as a measure of capital efficiency for organic reserves development.

"F&D Cost per BOE" are the F&D costs divided by the change in gross company interest reserves volumes that are characterized as exploration or development, excluding volumes associated with acquisitions, for the period.

"Finding, development and acquisition costs" Journey calculates FD&A costs, including FDC, as the sum of "Capital Expenditures, excluding A&D" and "Capital Expenditures, including A&D" (as defined under "Non-IFRS Measures"), and the change in FDC required to bring the reserves on production, divided by the change in reserves within the applicable reserves category, inclusive of changes due to acquisitions and dispositions. Management uses FD&A costs as a measure of capital efficiency for organic and acquired reserves development.

"FD&A Cost per BOE" is the FD&A cost divided by the change in gross company interest reserves volumes, including changes in volumes characterized as acquisitions or divestitures, in the current period.

Readers are cautioned that the aggregate of capital expenditures incurred in the year, comprised of exploration and development costs and acquisition costs, and the change in estimated FDC generally will not reflect total F&D or FD&A costs related to reserves additions in the year.
