ARROW ANNOUNCES Q3 2024 INTERIM RESULTS AND PROVIDES OPERATIONAL UPDATE

CNB HZ-7 on production

CALGARY, November 28, 2024 - Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL; TSXV: AXL) ("Arrow" or the "Company"), the high-growth operator with a portfolio of assets across key Colombian hydrocarbon basins, is pleased to provide an update on operational activity and announce the filing of its Interim Condensed (unaudited) Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 which are available on SEDAR ( www.sedar.com ) and will also  be available shortly on Arrow's website at  www.arrowexploration.ca .

(1) Non-IFRS measures - see "Non-IFRS Measures" section within the MD&A

Post Period End Highlights:

·    Drilled three additional successful CN horizontal wells.

·    Currently mobilizing rig to the Alberta Llanos pad (formerly known as Baquiano) in the Tapir block to spud the exploratory Alberta-1 well in early December.

CNB HZ-7

The sixth horizontal well on the Carrizales Norte "B" pad (CNB HZ-7) is now on production.  The well initially flowed at a rate of approximately 800 BOPD gross (400 BOPD net to Arrow) with a 60% water cut.  Currently the well has a 65% water cut and gross production of 700 BOPD gross (350 BOPD net).   

HZ-7 was drilled lower in the structure than the other horizontal wells and expectations were that the water cut would be higher on this well with lower production.  Nevertheless, the HZ7 well is expected to pay out in approximately four months.  As pump frequency is increased production should increase as well.

The results of HZ7 and the other horizontal wells have derisked further horizontal development to the north and south of the current horizontal wells at Carrizales Norte.

CNB HZ-7 was spud on October 22, 2024, and reached a target depth of 8,448 feet (true vertical depth) on November 7, 2024.  The well was drilled to a total measured depth of 13,893 feet with a horizontal section of approximately 3,612 feet. CNB HZ-7 came on production on November 14, 2024, with the use of an electric submersible pump (ESP).

Please note initial production flows are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery and a stabilized production rate will be determined in the first few weeks of operations, in keeping with conservative reservoir management. Further updates will be provided in due course.

Corporate Update

Current net corporate production is approximately 5,500 BOE/D, inclusive of CNB HZ-7.   Optimization continues. 

Arrow's cash position was approximately $19 million on November 1, 2024.  Arrow has maintained a healthy balance sheet with no debt while growing the production base. 

Upcoming Drilling

The rig is mobilizing to the Alberta Llanos prospect where Arrow plans to drill a low risk, vertical exploration well with multiple targets including the C7, Gacheta and Ubaque.   Thereafter, the Company expects to drill two more vertical wells on the Alberta Llanos pad.

Arrow plans another year of growth in 2025, expecting to drill up to 23 wells utilizing two rigs.  Rig 1 will drill the Alberta Llanos prospect and will also be used at the Carrizales Norte development area and the Mateguafa Oeste and Capullo prospects.  Rig 2 will drill development wells at RCE and from a new pad, called Carrizales Norte C, which will be positioned to drill horizontal wells in the northern section of Carrizales Norte field and the Alberta Llanos prospect.  The Company is also planning a 3D seismic project over the southern area of the Tapir block which will further develop the Icaco and Macoya prospects.  Total budgeted capital expenditures planned for 2025 is approximately $50 million, net to Arrow, which is expected to result in production for 2025 being significantly higher than current levels.

Marshall Abbott, CEO of Arrow Exploration Corp., commented:

"The third quarter of 2024 was the best quarter on record for Arrow.  Compared to the same quarter last year, corporate production grew by 64% and revenue grew by 53%.  Operating income and EBITDA grew by 54% and 62% respectively despite Brent and AECO prices being less than in 2023."

"The highly successful horizontal well program at Carrizales Norte is ongoing with the completion of HZ-7. This program has also demonstrated that the Carrizales Norte reservoir extends further than originally thought and the plan is to exploit the reservoir extension with additional horizontal wells.  The Ubaque reservoir has proven to be productive and very economic with the average wells paying out in less than three months.  Declines from CNB HZ1, the longest producing horizontal well, were 50% in the first 3 months and 27% from day 90 until now.  Individual well performance will vary, but HZ-1 is indicative of declines across the Company's horizontal wells thus far.   Expectations are that these horizontal wells will continue to produce for many years to come."

"Arrow is looking forward to 2025 with an approved budget that will see up to 23 wells drilled on the Tapir block.  The 2025 budget will be focused on production growth in development areas and low risk exploration.  Arrow plans to test the Mateguafa Oeste and Capullo prospects and to develop further the Carrizales Norte and Rio Cravo Este areas using both vertical and horizontal technology."

"Arrow's focus for the remainder of 2024 will be the low-risk exploration well at the Alberta Llanos prospect.  The Alberta Llanos prospect is a continuation of the fault from the Carrizales and Carrizales Norte fields and the 3D seismic shows 3-way closure with multi zone potential including the C7, Gacheta and Ubaque.  Arrow expects to have drilling and log results before the end of 2024.  "

Discussion of Operating Results

The Company continued increasing its production from new wells at CN which allowed the Company to continue to improve its operating results and EBITDA.  There has been a decrease in the Company's natural gas production in Canada due to shut in of wells and natural declines.

Benchmark Prices
AECO (C$/Mcf) $0.70 $2.64 (73%)
Brent ($/bbl) $72.87 $92.59 (21%)
West Texas Intermediate ($/bbl) $75.15 $77.35 (3%)
Realized Prices
Natural gas, net of transportation ($/Mcf) $0.56 $1.95 (71%)
Natural gas liquids ($/bbl) $61.24 $67.10 (9%)

Corporate average, net of transport ($/boe)(1) $64.04 $68.80 (7%)

(1)Non-IFRS measure

Operating Netbacks

The Company also continued to realize strong oil operating netbacks, as summarized below:

Three months ended

September 30
2024 2023
Natural Gas ($/Mcf)
Revenue, net of transportation expense $0.56 $1.95
Royalties ($0.09) ($0.05)
Operating expenses ($1.95) ($1.72)
Natural Gas operating netback(1) ($1.48) $0.18
Crude oil ($/bbl)
Revenue, net of transportation expense $65.35 $77.63
Royalties ($7.44) ($9.45)
Operating expenses ($5.91) ($7.56)
Crude Oil operating netback(1) $52.00 $60.62
Corporate ($/boe)
Revenue, net of transportation expense $64.04 $68.80
Royalties ($7.28) ($8.21)
Operating expenses ($6.00) ($7.92)
Corporate Operating netback (1) $50.76 $52.67

(1) Non-IFRS measure

The operating netbacks of the Company continued within healthy levels during 2024 due increasing production from its Colombian assets and consistent crude oil prices, which were offset by decreases in natural gas prices.

During Q3 2024, the Company incurred $7 million of capital expenditures, primarily in connection with the drilling of three additional CN wells in the Tapir block. This accelerated tempo is expected to continue during the remainder of 2024, funded by cash on hand and cashflow.

Non‐IFRS Measures

The Company uses non-IFRS measures to evaluate its performance which are measures not defined in IFRS. Working capital, funds flow from operations, realized prices, operating netback, adjusted EBITDA, and net debt as presented do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities. The Company considers these measures as key measures to demonstrate its ability to generate the cash flow necessary to fund future growth through capital investment, and to repay its debt, as the case may be. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than net income (loss) or cash provided by operating activities or net loss and comprehensive loss as determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the Company's performance. The Company's determination of these measures may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements (the "Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Reporting. These Financial Statements were authorized for issue by the board of directors of the Company on November 26, 2024. They do not contain all disclosures required by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") for annual financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2023.

These Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial assets and liabilities recorded in accordance with IFRS 9. The Financial Statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the adoption of new accounting standards effective January 1, 2024.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

The Company adopted amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, issued by the IASB, related to the presentation of liabilities as current or non-current and classification and disclosure of liabilities with covenants. These amendments were adopted by the Company from January 1, 2024 but they did not have a material impact on the interim consolidated financial statements.

Canada

As at June 30, 2024, the Company determined there were indicators of impairment in its Canada CGU, mainly due to decreases in current and forward gas prices, and prepared estimates of its fair value less costs of disposal of its Canada CGU. It was determined that carrying value of its Canada CGU exceeded its recoverable amount and, therefore, an impairment loss of $1,542,000 was included in the interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The following table outlines forecast benchmark prices and exchange rates used in the Company's impairment test as at June 30, 2024:

Exchange rate AECO Spot Gas
Year $US / $Cdn C$/MMBtu
2024 0.75 2.24
2025 0.75 2.90
2026 0.75 4.33
2027 0.75 4.34
2028

Thereafter (inflation %)
0.75 4.30

2.0%/yr

The recoverable amount was estimated at their fair value less costs of disposal, based on the net present value of the future cash flows from oil and gas reserves as estimated by the Company's independent reserve evaluator at December 31, 2023, updated to reflect changes in prices forecast, and an internal valuation of undeveloped land. The fair value less costs of disposal used to determine the recoverable amounts are classified as Level 3 fair value measurements as certain key assumptions are not based on observable market data but rather, the Company's best estimate. The Company used a 18.3% (2023: 18.3%) pre-tax discount rate, which took into account risks specific to the Canada CGU. The key assumptions in the internal valuation of undeveloped land were the determination of the transactions considered precedent, the discount applied to the Company's lands and the probability of obtaining extensions on related lands. The Company utilized an average value per acre of $89.63 in the impairment test as at June 30, 2024.

As at December 31, 2023, the Company determined there were indicators of impairment in its Canada CGU, mainly due to decreases in forward gas prices and revision of reserves, and prepared estimates of its fair value less costs of disposal of its Canada CGU. It was determined that carrying value of its Canada CGU exceeded its recoverable amount and, therefore, an impairment loss of $1,248,400 was included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Colombia

During 2023, the Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos ("ANH") approved the suspension of the obligations and operations of the OMBU contract due to force majeure circumstances generated by the blockades and social unrest around the Capella field. The suspension was for an initial term of three months and has been extended until August 2024. The Company determined there were indicators of impairment in the Capella CGU and recorded an impairment loss of $10,551,340 corresponding to the full carrying value of the Capella CGU as at December 31, 2023.

Effects of movements in foreign exchange rates (17,301) 14,099
Obligation, end of the period 5,052,107 3,973,075

T he obligation was calculated using a risk-free discount rate range of 1.25% to 4.50% in Canada (2023: 1.25% to 4.50%) and between 4.00% and 4.29% in Colombia (2023: 4.00% and 4.29%) with an inflation rate of 2.5% and 2.6%, respectively (2023: 2.5% and 2.6%). The majority of costs are expected to occur between 2024 and 2038. The undiscounted amount of cash flows, required over the estimated reserve life of the underlying assets, to settle the obligation, adjusted for inflation, is estimated at $6,871,182 (2023: $5,686,938) .

11.    Commitments and Contingencies

Exploration and Production Contracts

The Company has entered into a number of exploration contracts in Colombia which require the Company to fulfill work program commitments and issue financial guarantees related thereto. In aggregate, the Company has outstanding exploration commitments at September 30, 2024 of $12 million. The Company has made an application to the ANH to mutually cancel its COR-39 contract. Presented below are the Company's exploration and production contractual commitments at September 30, 2024:

Block Less than 1 year 1-3 years Thereafter Total
COR-39 - 12,000,000 - 12,000,000
Total - 12,000,000 - 12,000,000

Contingencies

From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation or has claims sought against it in the normal course of business operations.  Management of the Company is not currently aware of any claims or actions that would materially affect the Company's reported financial position or results from operations.

Under the terms of certain agreements and the Company's by-laws the Company indemnifies individuals who have acted at the Company's request to be a director and/or officer of the Company, to the extent permitted by law, against any and all damages, liabilities, costs, charges or expenses suffered by or incurred by those individuals.

12.    Risk Management

The Company holds various forms of financial instruments. The nature of these instruments and the Company's operations expose the Company to commodity price, credit and foreign exchange risks. The Company manages its exposure to these risks by operating in a manner that minimizes its exposure to the extent practical.

(a)    Commodity price risk

Commodity price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in commodity prices.  Lower commodity prices can also impact the Company's ability to raise capital.  Commodity prices for crude oil are impacted by world economic events that dictate the levels of supply and demand.  There were no derivative contracts during 2024.

(b)    Credit Risk

Credit risk reflects the risk of loss if counterparties do not fulfill their contractual obligations. The majority of the Company's account receivable balances relate to petroleum and natural gas sales.  The Company's policy is to enter into agreements with customers that are well established entities in the oil and gas industry such that the level of risk is mitigated. In Colombia, a significant portion of the sales is with producing companies and commodities trader under existing sale/offtake agreements with prepayment provisions and priced using the Brent benchmark. The Company's trade account receivables primarily relate to sales of crude oil and natural gas, which are normally collected within 25 days (in Canada) and up to 15 days (in Colombia) after the month of production.  Other accounts receivable mainly relate to balances owed by the Company's partner in one of its blocks, and are mainly recoverable through join billings. The Company has historically not experienced any collection issues with its customers and partners.

(c)    Market Risk

Market risk is comprised of two components: foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk.

i)      Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The Company operates on an international basis and therefore foreign exchange risk exposures arise from transactions denominated in currencies other than the United States dollar. The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations as it holds cash and incurs expenditures in exploration and evaluation and administrative costs in foreign currencies. The Company incurs expenditures in Canadian dollars, United States dollars, British Pounds and the Colombian peso and is exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates in these currencies. There are no exchange rate contracts in place.

ii)       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 not currently exposed to interest rate risk.

(d)    Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk includes the risk that, as a result of the Company's operational liquidity requirements:

·      The Company will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction on the due date;

·      The Company will be forced to sell financial assets at a value which is less than what they are worth; or

·      The Company may be unable to settle or recover a financial asset.

The Company's approach to managing its liquidity risk is to ensure, within reasonable means, sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and unusual conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or jeopardizing the Company's business objectives. The Company prepares annual capital expenditure budgets which are monitored regularly and updated as considered necessary.  Petroleum and natural gas production is monitored daily to provide current cash flow estimates and the Company utilizes authorizations for expenditures on projects to manage capital expenditures. Any funding shortfall may be met in a number of ways, including, but not limited to, the issuance of new debt or equity instruments, further expenditure reductions and/or the introduction of joint venture partners.

(e)     Capital Management

The Company's objective is to maintain a capital base sufficient to provide flexibility in the future development of the business and maintain investor, creditor and market confidence.  The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in response to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Company considers its capital structure to include share capital, bank debt (when available), promissory notes and working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities.  From time to time the Company may issue common shares or other securities, sell assets or adjust its capital spending to manage current and projected debt levels. The Company adjusts its capital structure based on its net debt level.  Net debt is defined as the principal amount of its outstanding debt, less working capital items.  The Company prepares annual budgets, which are updated as necessary including current and forecast crude oil prices, changes in capital structure, execution of the Company's business plan and general industry conditions.  The annual budget is approved by the Board of Directors.

Advisories

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), and all amounts herein are expressed in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted, and all tabular amounts are expressed in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted.  Additional information for the Company may be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. 

Advisory Regarding Forward‐Looking Statements

This MD&A contains certain statements or disclosures relating to Arrow that are based on the expectations of its management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to Arrow which may constitute forward-looking statements or information ("forward-looking statements") under applicable securities laws. All such statements and disclosures, other than those of historical fact, which address activities, events, outcomes, results or developments that Arrow anticipates or expects may, could or will occur in the future (in whole or in part) should be considered forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of the words "believe", "continue", "could", "expect", "likely", "may", "outlook", "plan", "potential", "will", "would" and similar expressions. In particular, but without limiting the foregoing, this MD&A contains forward-looking statements pertaining to the following: global pandemics and their impact; tax liability; capital management strategy; capital structure; credit facilities and other debt; performance by Canacol (as defined herein) and the Company in connection with the Note (as defined herein) and letters of credit; Arrow's costless collar structure; cost reduction initiatives; potential drilling on the Tapir block; capital requirements; expenditures associated with asset retirement obligations; future drilling activity and the development of the Rio Cravo Este structure on the Tapir Block. Statements relating to "reserves" and "resources" are deemed to be forward-looking information, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the reserves and resources described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and can be profitably produced in the future.

The forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A reflect several material factors and expectations and assumptions of Arrow including, without limitation: current and anticipated commodity prices and royalty regimes; the impact of the global pandemics; the financial impact of Arrow's costless collar structure; availability of skilled labour; timing and amount of capital expenditures; future exchange rates; commodity prices; the impact of increasing competition; general economic conditions; availability of drilling and related equipment; receipt of partner, regulatory and community approvals; royalty rates; changes in income tax laws or changes in tax laws and incentive programs; future operating costs; effects of regulation by governmental agencies; uninterrupted access to areas of Arrow's operations and infrastructure; recoverability of reserves; future production rates; timing of drilling and completion of wells; pipeline capacity; that Arrow will have sufficient cash flow, debt or equity sources or other financial resources required to fund its capital and operating expenditures and requirements as needed; that Arrow's conduct and results of operations will be consistent with its expectations; that Arrow will have the ability to develop its oil and gas properties in the manner currently contemplated; current or, where applicable, proposed industry conditions, laws and regulations will continue in effect or as anticipated; that the estimates of Arrow's reserves and production volumes and the assumptions related thereto (including commodity prices and development costs) are accurate in all material respects; that Arrow will be able to obtain contract extensions or fulfil the contractual obligations required to retain its rights to explore, develop and exploit any of its undeveloped properties; and other matters.

Arrow believes the material factors, expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable at this time but no assurance can be given that these factors, expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements included in this MD&A are not guarantees of future performance and should not be unduly relied upon.

Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements including, without limitation: the impact of general economic conditions; volatility in commodity prices; industry conditions including changes in laws and regulations including adoption of new environmental laws and regulations, and changes in how they are interpreted and enforced; competition; lack of availability of qualified personnel; the results of exploration and development drilling and related activities; obtaining required approvals of regulatory authorities; counterparty risk; risks associated with negotiating with foreign governments as well as country risk associated with conducting international activities; commodity price volatility; fluctuations in foreign exchange or interest rates; environmental risks; changes in income tax laws or changes in tax laws and incentive programs; changes to pipeline capacity; ability to secure a credit facility; ability to access sufficient capital from internal and external sources; risk that Arrow's evaluation of its existing portfolio of development and exploration opportunities is not consistent with future results; that production may not necessarily be indicative of long term performance or of ultimate recovery; and certain other risks detailed from time to time in Arrow's public disclosure documents including, without limitation, those risks identified in Arrow's 2018 AIF, a copy of which is available on Arrow's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. 

Non‐IFRS Measures

The Company uses non-IFRS measures to evaluate its performance which are measures not defined in IFRS. Working capital, funds flow from operations, realized prices, operating netback, adjusted EBITDA, and net debt as presented do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities. The Company considers these measures as key measures to demonstrate its ability to generate the cash flow necessary to fund future growth through capital investment, and to repay its debt, as the case may be. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than net income or cash provided by (used in) operating activities or net income and comprehensive income as determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the Company's performance. The Company's determination of these measures may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.

Adjusted working capital is calculated as current assets minus current liabilities, excluding non-cash liabilities; funds from operations is calculated as cash flows provided by operating activities adjusted to exclude changes in non-cash working capital balances; realized price is calculated by dividing gross revenue by gross production, by product, in the applicable period; operating netback is calculated as total natural gas and crude revenues minus royalties, transportation costs and operating expenditures; adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income adjusted for interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization and other similar non-recurring or non-cash charges; and net debt (net cash) is defined as the principal amount of its outstanding debt, less working capital items excluding non-cash liabilities.  

The Company also presents funds from operations per share, whereby per share amounts are calculated using weighted- average shares outstanding consistent with the calculation of net income per share.

A reconciliation of the non-IFRS measures is included as follows:

The term barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") is used in this MD&A.  Boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.  A boe conversion ratio of 6 thousand cubic feet ("Mcf") of natural gas to one barrel of oil ("bbl") is used in the MD&A. This conversion ratio of 6:1 is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

The Company

Arrow is a junior oil and gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties in Colombia and Western Canada. The Company's shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange and the London AIM exchange under the symbol AXL.

The Company and Arrow Exploration Ltd. entered into an arrangement agreement dated June 1, 2018, as amended, whereby the parties completed a business combination pursuant to a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) ("ABCA") on September 28, 2018. Arrow Exploration Ltd. and Front Range's then wholly-owned subsidiary, 2118295 Alberta Ltd., were amalgamated to form Arrow Holdings Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Arrangement"). On May 31, 2018, Arrow Exploration Ltd. entered in a share purchase agreement, as amended, with Canacol Energy Ltd. ("Canacol"), to acquire Canacol's Colombian oil properties held by its wholly-owned subsidiary Carrao Energy S.A. ("Carrao"). On September 27, 2018, Arrow Exploration Ltd. closed the agreement with Canacol.

On May 31, 2018, Arrow Exploration Ltd., entered into a purchase and sale agreement to acquire a 50% beneficial interest in a contract entered into with Ecopetrol S.A. pertaining to the exploration and production of hydrocarbons in the Tapir block from Samaria Exploration & Production S.A. ("Samaria"). On September 27, 2018, Arrow Exploration Ltd. closed the agreement with Samaria. As at September 30, 2024 the Company held an interest in four oil blocks in Colombia and oil and natural gas leases in five areas in Canada as follows:

Gross Acres Working Interest Net Acres
COLOMBIA
Tapir Operated 1 65,125 50% 32,563
Oso Pardo Operated 672 100% 672
Ombu Non-operated 56,482 10% 5,648

Wapiti Non-operated 1,280 13% 160
Total Canada 29,280 22,519
TOTAL 246,670 156,513

The Company's primary producing assets are located in Colombia in the Tapir, Oso Pardo and Ombu blocks, with natural gas production in Canada at Fir and Pepper, Alberta.

Llanos Basin

Within the Llanos Basin, the Company is engaged in the exploration, development and production of oil within the Tapir block. In the Llanos Basin most oil accumulations are associated with three-way dip closure against NNE-SSW trending normal faults and can have pay within multiple reservoirs. The Tapir block contain large areas not yet covered by 3D seismic, and in Management's opinion offer substantial exploration upside. 

1 The Company's interest in the Tapir block is held through a private contract with Petrolco, who holds a 50% participating interest in, and is the named operator of, the Tapir contract with Ecopetrol. The formal assignment to the Company is subject to Ecopetrol's consent. The Company is the de facto operator pursuant to certain agreements with Petrolco (details of which are set out in Paragraph 16.13 of the Company's AIM Admission Document dated October 20, 2021).

Middle Magdalena Valley ("MMV") Basin

Oso Pardo Field

The Oso Pardo Field is located in the Santa Isabel Block in the MMV Basin.  It is a 100% owned property operated by the Company.  The Oso Pardo field is located within a Production Licence covering 672 acres. Three wells have been drilled to date within the licensed area.

Ombu E&P Contract - Capella Conventional Heavy Oil Discovery

The Caguan Basin covers an area of approximately 60,000 km2 and lies between the Putumayo and Llanos Basins. The primary reservoir target is the Upper Eocene aged Mirador formation. The Capella structure is a large, elongated northeast-southwest fault-related anticline, with approximately 17,500 acres in closure at the Mirador level. The field is located approximately 250 km away from the nearest offloading station at Neiva, where production from Capella is trucked.

The Capella No. 1 discovery well was drilled in July 2008 and was followed by a series of development wells. The Company earned a 10% working interest in the Ombu E&P Contract by paying 100% of all activities associated with the drilling, completion, and testing of the Capella No. 1 well. The Capella field is currently suspended and temporarily shut in.

Fir, Alberta

The Company has an average non-operated 32% WI in 12 gross (3.84 net) sections of oil and natural gas rights and 17 gross (4.5 net) producing natural gas wells at Fir. The wells produce raw natural gas into the Cecilia natural gas plant where it is processed.

Pepper, Alberta

The Company holds a 100% operated WI in 37 sections of Montney P&NG rights on its Pepper asset in West Central Alberta. The 6-26-53-23W5M Montney gas well (West Pepper) is tied into the Galloway gas plant for processing. The 3-21-52-22W5M Montney gas well (East Pepper) is currently tied into the Sundance gas plant for processing. The majority of lands have tenure extending into 2025. Both West Pepper and East Pepper wells are currently shut in due to current low natural gas prices in Canada.

Three months ended September 30, 2024 Financial and Operational Highlights

·      Arrow recorded $21,300,115 in revenues, net of royalties, on crude oil sales of 366,988 bbls, 437 bbls of natural gas liquids ("NGL's") and 42,447 Mcf of natural gas sales;

·      Funds flow from operations of $9,233,972;

·      Net income of $6,668,493 and adjusted EBITDA was $15,961,900;

·      Drilled three horizontal wells, and spud an additional one, at its Carrizales Norte field.

Results of Operations

The Company increased its production from its new wells at its Carrizales Norte field in the Tapir block. These have allowed the Company to continue to improve its operating results and EBITDA.  There has also been a decrease in the Company's natural gas production in Canada due to shut ins in some wells and natural declines.
