"We are pleased to see strong results for the quarter. Seven of the nine growth projects planned for start-up in 2025 are on stream, including Johan Castberg and the Jotun FPSO at the Balder field, with both producing at plateau. Our company is de-risked and has never been in a stronger position to continue to deliver high value and attractive shareholder returns.

With the strong ramp up of our new projects we expect to produce an average of approximately 430 thousand barrels of oil per day (kboepd) in the fourth quarter and we're on track to meet around the mid-point of the full year guidance range of 330 to 360 kboepd.

We are on target to sustain production at 350 to 400 kboepd towards 2030 and beyond. This will be delivered through our portfolio of around 30 early phase projects, backed by already discovered resources that are being moved towards development sanction at pace. We expect to sanction 10 projects in 2025, of which 4 are already moving forward, with average break evens below 35 USD/boe. Furthermore, the recent acquisition of TotalEnergies' interest in the Ekofisk Previously Produced Fields project adds high value barrels to our portfolio at an attractive price.

The Company demonstrates strong resilience, driven by solid financial results, reduced net debt and efficient operating cost of 10.6 USD/boe in the quarter.

On the back of this strong performance Vår Energi continues to provide attractive shareholder distributions. We confirm a dividend of USD 300 million for the third quarter and maintain our total dividend distribution guidance of USD 1.2 billion for the full year 2025 and 2026."

Nick Walker, the CEO of Vår Energi

Operational review

Vår Energi's production of oil, liquids and natural gas averaged 370 kboepd in the third quarter of 2025. Production for the first nine months of the year averaged 311 kboepd. At the end of August the Company achieved the 400 kboepd production level milestone, ahead of schedule due to the Jotun FPSO at the Balder field ramping up faster than anticipated. The Company is also on track to produce around 430 kboepd in the fourth quarter this year, delivering on the strategy for transformational growth in 2025. The full year 2025 production is expected to be around the middle of the guided range of 330 to 360 kboepd.

Vår Energi's net production of oil, liquids and natural gas averaged 370 kboepd in the third quarter 2025, an increase of 29% from the previous quarter and at the top of the expected range. Production for the first nine months averaged 311 kboepd, which is in line with guided expectations, with the ramp-up of the Jotun FPSO ahead of plan mostly offsetting the impact of the later start-up and ramp-up of Johan Castberg compared to expectations. Strong operational performance continues on operated assets, with production efficiency better than target at 92% for the first nine months of 20251 . All main turnaround activities for 2025 have been completed by the end of the third quarter, with an impact of around 10 kboepd on full year production.

Vår Energy plans to start-up nine new projects during 2025, adding around 180 kboepd production at peak levels. Seven of these projects are on stream, which are currently contributing around 150 kboepd of new production to the portfolio, and the remaining two projects are targeted to start-up by end 2025. Halten East started up in March, on time and within budget, and is expected to start-up one further well before year end, bringing production close to plateau levels.

Production split third quarter

1 Excluding Jotun FPSO ramp-up

The current production potential across the portfolio positions the Company to produce around 430 kboepd during fourth quarter.

Average production costs in third quarter was USD 10.6 per boe, and for the first nine months was USD 11.6 per boe. It is expected that full year production cost will be at the bottom end of the guidance range of USD 11-12 per boe. The Company expects that production costs will reduce to around USD 10 per boe in the fourth quarter of 2025 through the ramp up of lower cost barrels from the new projects and continuous cost improvements.

The Company's significant discovered resource base and comprehensive early phase project portfolio including the recent sanctions supports sustainable production of 350 to 400 kboepd towards 2030 and beyond. The Company is progressing around 30 early phase projects accounting for net 2C contingent resources of around 650 mmboe and expects to sanction 10 projects during 2025. Four projects have been sanctioned so far in 2025, amongst these, Balder Phase VI, a fast-track development operated by Vår Energi that will contribute with high value production through the Jotun FPSO already in late 2026 and Fram Sør, a subsea tie-back development to Troll C developing 116 mmboe gross1 resources.

The Company has made five commercial exploration discoveries so far in 2025, with the two Equinor operated wells, F Sør and Smørbukk Midt, completed in the third quarter. The latter was drilled in August and put on production in September achieving initial production rates of around 30 kboepd gross2 . The Goliat Ridge discoveries are being matured as a fast-track subsea development with flexibility to include potential future discoveries, and the first of two further appraisal wells is ongoing, with results expected before the end of 2025. The expected total exploration spend for 2025 is increased to around USD 400 million, following successful wells.

Since 2019 the Company has added around 300 mmboe in net contingent resources (2C) from the discoveries made, and more than 70% of these volumes are either under development planning, have taken project sanction or have started production.

With Vår Energi's major projects having been completed the Company has been de-risked. Looking forward a pipeline of smaller low-risk tie-back projects and a significant infill well programme across the portfolio will sustain production levels long term. These represent a series of smaller low risk decisions and, with around 65% of future capital spend uncommitted3 there is significant flexibility in the business to manage the capital spend programme through the commodity price cycles.

Breidablikk 27 26 27 24 19
Total Balder Area 97 63 64 60 53

Performance from the Balder Area was strong with production of 97 kboepd in the third quarter, an increase of 54% compared to the second quarter, driven by the production start-up and the accelerated ramp-up at the Jotun FPSO at the Balder field, which has all fourteen subsea production wells started up unlocking gross proved plus probable (2P) reserves of around 150 mmboe1,2 . Due to the successful offshore completion of the project, the peak rate was achieved ahead of schedule in September. Average production from these wells is according to expectations, and work is ongoing to further optimise production levels going forward. In addition, the Company has also benefited from continued strong performance at the Breidablikk field. The Balder field production efficiency was 93% for the first nine months of the year3 , including a successfully conducted planned turnaround at Balder.

Average production year to date from the Balder Area was 75 kboepd, which is above expectations. In the fourth quarter it is expected that three Balder Phase V wells will be brought onstream and also new wells at Ringhorne, Breidablikk and Grane will achieve first oil.

Projects

The Jotun FPSO project was fully completed by end September 2025 and, the project team has been demobilised.

The drilling of six new wells as part of Balder Phase V project is progressing as planned, with three wells expected to commence production during the fourth quarter 2025. Additionally, the Balder Phase VI project is in execution, ahead of original plan with anticipated first oil by end 2026, with strong economics at an internal rate of return (IRR) above 35% and breakeven price below USD 35 per boe. Together these projects will capture gross proved plus probable (2P) reserves in the range of 45-50 mmboe1 .

Further early phase projects are also being progressed at pace to maximise the production capacity of the Jotun FPSO in the years to come. The Balder Next project is targeting to develop the next phase for the Balder field and unlock significant contingent resources. The project consists of taking the Balder Floating Production Unit (FPU) to shore for decommissioning, targeted in 2028. Selected wells producing through Balder FPU will be transferred to the Jotun FPSO. In addition, production will be accelerated as part of the Jotun FPSO debottlenecking project to increase production capacity on the FPSO, as well as developing new production wells. Combined this gives production from the Balder field area in the range 70-80 kboepd gross1 towards 2030. The decommissioning of Balder FPU is expected to reduce operating costs by approximately USD 130 million gross1per annum and to reduce CO2 emissions by around 80,000 tonnes gross1per year. The above projects are steps to ensure high value barrels from the Balder area towards 2045 and beyond.

Snøhvit 9 4 13 16 17
Total Barents Sea 90 36 26 30 32

Average production in the Barents Sea was 90 kboepd in the third quarter, an increase of 150% from the second quarter due to the ramp-up of Johan Castberg.

The Goliat field had a production efficiency in the first nine months of 2025 of 96%, including planned maintenance activities in the second quarter. Year to date two new infill wells have been drilled at the Goliat field, with strong production above expectations. Acquisition of 4D seismic at Goliat and 3D seismic at the Goliat Ridge was concluded in the quarter, which will support the development of future drilling plans.

Johan Castberg reached plateau levels in June, with 66 kboepd net to Vår Energi. The field will be producing for more than 30 years, contributing to significant growth and value creation, with expected pay-back time of less than 2 years from start-up. The project has completed nineteen of the thirty planned development wells. The drilling program is scheduled to be completed by end of 2026.

Snøhvit has executed a planned turnaround in the second and third quarters, commencing in April and with production re-starting in August. In addition, the Askeladden West project started up in the quarter, an important contributor to maintain production plateau at the Snøhvit field and ensure full capacity utilisation at Hammerfest LNG1 for years to come.

1 Vår Energi working interest 90%

1 Liquified Natural Gas

The project adds gross recoverable reserves of around 15 billion standard cubic metres of gas.

Average production from the Barents Sea for the first nine months of the year was 51 kboepd, and further production increase will come for the remainder of the year due to Johan Castberg production remaining at plateau levels and with stable Goliat and Snøhvit production.

Projects

The Johan Castberg area is highly prospective, and several new discoveries made in recent years are already being matured, including an extensive infill drilling program planned to be sanctioned in 2025. The Johan Castberg Cluster 1 development project consisting of two phases, Isflak and Snøfonn/Skavl with the Isflak development expected to be sanctioned by end fourth quarter 2025. In total, there are expected to be between 250 and 550 million barrels of new gross unrisked recoverable resources identified in the area, supporting continued high production at Johan Castberg towards 2030 and beyond.

Snøhvit is progressing the next plateau extension project, "Snøhvit Future", that entails both onshore compression and electrification of the Hammerfest LNG onshore facility. The start of onshore compression is planned for late 2028 and the plant will be electrified with power from the grid in 2029.

Production from North Sea was 81 kboepd in the third quarter, an 8% reduction from previous quarter mainly due to planned turnarounds at Gjøa and Sleipner/Gudrun fields.

Vår Energi's operated assets have continued to perform strongly with the Gjøa area achieving 89% production efficiency in the first nine months of 2025, this includes the planned turnaround in the quarter. In addition, the Gjøa Low Pressure Project (LPP) started production in September, which increases gross production by around 6 kboepd, as well as increasing the recoverable volumes with approximately 25% from the Gjøa field.

North Sea average production for the first nine months of the year was 86 kboepd in line with expectations.

Restoration of Sleipner B production after the fire in 2024 is ongoing and full production is expected to be resumed in the first half of 2027. The after-tax cash impact is compensated by insurance coverage, which covers the lost production at a predefined price for up to twelve months.

Projects

The Fram Sør subsea tieback, Gudrun Low Pressure and Snorre Gas Export projects have been sanctioned in 2025.

Fram Sør will develop 116 mmboe gross proved plus probable (2P) reserves1 and consists of several discoveries combined into one subsea development project that will export oil and gas via the Troll C platform. The development will bring highly valuable barrels on stream by connecting new infrastructure to existing facilities. Fram Sør has strong economics and fulfils Vår Energi's investment criteria for new developments. The Fram area continues to offer compelling potential for value creation. Building on recent discoveries, Mulder and Rhombi, the F-Sør discovery in the third quarter 2025 shows the potential of unlocking further resources1 . Further exploration targets are set to be drilled in the years to come.

The Gjøa subsea projects are being matured towards final investment decision. The project consists of the Ofelia, Kyrre, Gjøa North and Cerisa discoveries, with up to 110 mmboe in estimated gross recoverable resources2 . The current plan is to make a project concept selection by end 2025 and with the target to sanction the project in 2026.

In the Ekofisk area the Ekofisk PPF (Previously Produced Fields) project is being matured towards an investment decision within year end 2025. In October Vår Energi announced the acquisition of TotalEnergies' ownership interest in the Ekofisk PPF project increasing the Company's equity from 12.388% to 52.284%. The transaction will add estimated net proved plus probable reserves of 38 million barrels of oil equivalent (mmboe) with low operating costs per barrel and potential for further growth. The purchase price is USD 147 million and completion of the transaction is subject to Final Investment Decision for the project and customary regulatory approvals, including the carve-out of the PL018F licence from the PL018 licence. The transaction is expected to be completed by end 2025. In addition, final investment decision is targeted for the Eldfisk North project by end 2025.

In the Norwegian Sea production for the third quarter was 103 kboepd, in line with the previous quarter. Average production for the first nine months of 2025 was 99 kboepd, slightly above expectations.

During third quarter a commercial discovery was made in the Åsgard area with the successful drilling of Smørbukk Midt target. The discovery was made in August and production started early September with high initial rates of around 30 kboepd gross1 . Åsgard subsea compression phase II project was also successfully brought onstream at the end of the quarter. The Åsgard Low Pressure Production 3 (LPP3) project is targeting startup by year end.

The increased production in 2025 is mainly due to the Halten East project coming on stream in March 2025, expecting to provide Vår Energi with net production of around 20 kboepd at peak levels expected in first half of 2026. The Company expects one additional Halten East well to come onstream before year end, further increasing production levels. The field holds gross reserves of around 100 mmboe2 , and the area has additional unrisked gross recoverable resource potential of 100-200 mmboe for future development.

In addition, the Ormen Lange Phase III project started production at the end of second quarter this year, boosting production from the gas field with subsea compression. The project will increase recovery from 75% to 85% for the field and recover additional 30-50 billion cubic metres of gross gas reserves3 .

Exploration

The Company's exploration programme continues to deliver successful results, with five commercial discoveries so far in 2025 from the 15 exploration wells drilled, continuing the Company's leading exploration track record on the NCS. The five discoveries contain net recoverable resources in the range of 40 to 70 mmboe and all will be developed as subsea tie-back projects, adding high value barrels. A further 7 exploration wells are planned to be completed in 2025. The expected exploration spend for 2025 is increased to around USD 400 million, as a result of successful wells.

The Vår Energi operated Vidsyn exploration well in licence PL586, close to the Fenja field, in the Norwegian Sea is assessed as a commercial discovery in July. The discovery could open up new opportunities in neighbouring segments of the Vidsyn ridge, which will be further assessed with an appraisal campaign in 2026, targeting potential of up to 100 mmboe gross. The gross recoverable resources for the Vidsyn well are estimated in the range of 25 to 40 mmboe1 .

The Equinor operated Drivis Tubåen exploration well in licence PL 532, close to Johan Castberg, in the Barents Sea was a commercial discovery. The gross recoverable resources are estimated in the range of 9 to 15 mmboe2 . The exploration program close to Johan Castberg is key to unlock the prospective resources, ensuring the capacity of the newly started facility is utilised at full towards 2030 and beyond.

At Goliat, the Company has formally initiated an early phase project to progress the recent discoveries in the Goliat Ridge³, with the close proximity to Goliat FPSO providing the opportunity for a fast track, low emission, cost-efficient development adding high value barrels. The discoveries continue to demonstrate the potential of the Goliat ridge, with estimated gross discovered and prospective recoverable resources of above 200 mmboe. Two further appraisal wells will be completed before the end of 2025, with the first well ongoing. A new 3D seismic survey was acquired in the second quarter over the Goliat Ridge area to support development studies.

The Equinor operated F Sør exploration well in licence PL090, close to the Fram infrastructure in the North Sea, is considered a commercial discovery despite the limited estimated gross recoverable resources of around 4 mmboe4 further demonstrating the value of Infrastructure Led Exploration (ILX) in a highly prolific area with multiple commercial solutions. The discovery is being considered for

a tie-in to existing infrastructure or as part of a future new development in the area.

Another ILX example with successful results is Equinor operated Smørbukk Midt well in licence PL094, close to Smørbukk Sør and the Åsgard field. With estimated gross recoverable resources of around 13 mmboe5 , the well is already producing having been tied-in to the existing Smørbukk Sør infrastructure.

The Equinor operated Deimos exploration well in licence PL1238 and the Equinor operated Narvi well in licence PL554C were concluded in the third quarter, both were dry wells.

During the third quarter, Vår Energi submitted applications in the 2025 Awards in Predefined Areas (APA) annual licensing round, with awards expected in early 2026.

Vår Energi's commitment to safety remains strong with the ambition to be the safest operator on the NCS. The Company continues to enforce the safety tools and improvement initiatives proven to be effective, in close collaboration with our partners and contractors. During the third quarter the Company continued the positive performance with no actual serious incidents, however has experienced over the last quarter some

incidents with serious potential and one process safety event (tier 2). Vår Energi believes in the importance of learning from such events, and are currently addressing outcomes from the investigations. Recordable injuries in the third quarter are of lower potential. The Company extracts learnings from incidents to avoid similar events in the future.

ESG and decarbonisation

Vår Energi has industry leading ESG performance and is ranked amongst the top 15% in the global oil and gas industry by Sustainalytics and was with that once again awarded with the badge "2025 Sustainalytics ESG top rated Industry". The Company is also the only operator on the NCS with an ISO 50001:2018 energy management certification.

Vår Energi targets to reduce its net equity scope 1 GHG1 emissions from three main levers, electrification with power from shore, portfolio optimisation and energy management. Following further assessment of the Halten and Snorre power from shore projects, these are proposed to be discontinued due to challenging economics. The Grane Balder Energy project will be further matured prior to potential concept select and final investment decision. The discontinuing of the two projects is expected to have limited impact on Vår Energi's overall emission reductions, with a path to reduce emissions with around 40% in the early 2030s.

In addition to emission reductions, Vår Energi is on the path to become carbon neutral in net equity operational emissions by 2030 through carbon removals in the voluntary carbon market. Carbon removals will be used for residual emissions and Vår Energi has entered into flexible

agreements to achieve this. Vår Energi has a target of zero scope 2 (market based) emissions2 this is achieved through energy efficiencies and purchase of guarantees of origin from renewable sources for the residual scope 2 emissions. These purchases are done throughout the year.

In the third quarter of 2025 scope 1 net equity CO2 emissions intensity was 9.4 kg CO2 per boe, versus 10.5 kg CO2 per boe in the second quarter 2025. For the first nine months of 2025 scope 1 net equity CO2emissions intensity was around 9.9 kg CO2 per boe. This level of emissions intensity is in line with the Company guidance for 2025 and is in the top quartile of world industry performance. For the third quarter the operated methane emission intensity for Vår Energi is 0.03%3 , well below the Near Zero levels4 .

Vår Energi has a value driven approach towards creating future optionality through CCS5 , and the Company is the operator of both the Iroko (40%) and Trudvang (40%) licences on the NCS. For the latter, operatorship was transferred to Vår Energi during first quarter 2025.

Cash flow from operating activities (CFFO) post-tax was USD 1 234 million in the third quarter, an increase of USD 469 million from the previous quarter. This was mainly due to higher revenue.

Net cash used in investing activities was USD 740 million in the quarter, whereof USD 616 million was related to PP&E expenditures

Net cash outflow from financing activities amounted to USD 374 million in the quarter. Cash outflow in the quarter mainly consisted of interest paid of USD 41 million and dividends paid of USD 300 million.

Free cash flow (FCF) was USD 508 million in the quarter, compared to USD 4 million in the previous quarter. The increase is mainly driven by higher cash flow from operations and lower PP&E expenditures. The capex coverage was 1.7 in the third quarter, up from 1.0 in the previous quarter.

Outlook

Vår Energi has an ambition to deliver value-driven growth to support attractive and resilient long-term dividend distributions.

The Company's full year production guidance for 2025 is 330- 360 kboepd and for the fourth quarter 2025 is around 430 kboepd.

For 2025, the Company expects development capex between USD 2 300 and 2 500 million, around USD 400 million in exploration capex and around USD 100 million in abandonment capex. Production cost is expected to be at the bottom of the guidance range of USD 11 and 12 per boe for the full year 2025, reducing to around USD 10 per boe in the fourth quarter 2025.

In the current macro and operating environment Vår Energi's material cash flow generation and investment grade balance sheet support attractive dividend distributions. Vår Energi has a full year 2025 and 2026 dividend guidance of USD 1.2 billion1 . Vår Energi's dividend policy is 25-30% of CFFO after tax over the cycle.

To ensure continuous access to capital at competitive cost, retaining investment grade credit ratings is a priority for Vår Energi. As such, the Company targets a NIBD/EBITDAX of below 1.3x through the cycle.

Risks and uncertainties

Vår Energi is exposed to a variety of risks associated with its oil and gas operations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS). Factors such as exploration, reserve and resource estimates, and projections for capital and operating costs are subject to inherent uncertainties. Additionally, the production performance of operated and partner operated oil and gas fields exhibit variability over time and is also affected by planned and unplanned maintenance and turnaround activities. A high activity level on the NCS create challenges for resource availability and may influence the planned progress and costs of Vår Energi's ongoing development projects, which encompass advanced engineering work, extensive procurement activities, and complex construction endeavors.

The Company is also exposed to a variety of risks typically associated with the oil and gas sector such as fluctuations in commodity prices, exchange rates, interest rates, and capital requirements.

Increasing geopolitical tensions have introduced an elevated level of uncertainty into the energy landscape, affecting supply chains and contributing to global economic volatility. Sudden geopolitical developments can influence energy markets, potentially impacting regulatory environments, trade agreements, and geopolitical stability in regions critical to Vår Energi's operations. These uncertainties may impact the predictability of market conditions, affecting both short-term decision-making and long-term strategic planning.

Tensions over trade tariffs increase and potential impacts on global demand and oil and gas supply dynamics introduced additional uncertainties and increased further the level of volatility in the financial market, affecting commodity prices, exchange rates and interest rates.

Climate change mitigation is impacting our operations and business with the introduction of new regulations and taxes on CO2 emissions aiming to impact the demand for regular fossil fuels. Additionally, the cost of capital may increase as investors modify their behavior in response to these transformative trends. The company is managing the climate related transition risks by making its business strategies more resilient. The Company's operational, financial, strategic, compliance risks and the mitigation of these risks are described in the annual report for 2024, available on www.varenergi.no.

Alternative performance measures (APMs)

In this interim report, in order to enhance the understanding of the Group's performance and liquidity, Vår Energi presents certain alter-native performance measures ("APMs") as defined by the European Securities and Markets Authority ("ESMA") in the ESMA Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures 2015/1057.

Vår Energi presents the APMs: Capex, Capex Coverage, EBITDAX, EBITDAX Margin, Free Cash Flow, NIBD and NIBD/EBITDAX Ratio.

The APMs are not measurements of performance under IFRS ("GAAP") and should not be considered to be an alternative to: (a) operating revenues or operating profit (as determined in accordance with GAAP), as a measure of Vår Energi's operating performance; or (b) any other measures of performance under GAAP. The APM presented herein may not be indicative of Vår Energi's historical operating results, nor is such measure meant to be predictive of the Group's future results.

Vår Energi believes that the APMs described herein are commonly reported by companies in the markets in which it competes and are widely used in comparing and analysing performance across companies within its industry.

The APMs used by Vår Energi are set out below (presented in alphabetical order):

  • "Capex" is defined by Vår Energi as expenditures on property, plant and equipment (PP&E) and expenditures on exploration and evaluation assets as presented in the cash flow statements within cash flow from investing activities.
  • "Capex Coverage" is defined by Vår Energi as cash flow from operating activities as presented in the cash flow statements ("CFFO"), as a ratio to Capex.
  • "EBITDAX" is defined by Vår Energi as profit/(loss) for the period before income tax (expense)/income, net financial items, net exchange rate gain/(loss),

  • depreciation and amortisation, impairments and exploration expenses.

  • "EBITDAX margin" is defined by Vår Energi as EBITDAX and EBITDA as a percentage of total income, respectively.
  • "EBITDAX 4 quarters rolling" EBITDAX of the last four quarters
  • "Free cash flow" ("FCF") is defined by Vår Energi as CFFO less CAPEX.
  • "Net interest-bearing debt" or "NIBD" is defined by Vår Energi as interest-bearing loans and borrowings including accrued interest ("Total interest-bearing debt" or "TIBD") less unrestricted cash and cash equivalents1 .
  • "NIBD/EBITDAX" is defined by Vår Energi as NIBD as a ratio of EBITDAX.

1The Company's definition of NIBD is changed to align with covenants in the revolving credit facilities agreement, accrued interests are included and lease liabilities and restricted cash are excluded.

Notes

(All figures in USD million unless otherwise stated)

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended 30 September 2025 have been prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards and IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". Thus, the interim financial statements do not include all information required by IFRS®'s and should be read in conjunction with the 2024 annual financial statements. The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and interim periods presented. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for an annual period. These interim financial statements have not been subject to review or audit by independent auditors.

These interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the Company Board of Directors on 20 October 2025.

Note 1 Summary of IFRS accounting principles

The accounting principles adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. , except for certain changes in estimates. For determining the depreciation rate based on the Unit of Production method, management has revised the estimation technique to apply 2P reserves (proved + probable) for facilities and 2PD reserves (proved + probable developed) for wells for Balder/Ringhorne and Johan Castberg. This has been done to better align depreciation with the actual consumption of economic benefits. This change results in a more even depreciation profile over time and a more stable relationship between expected earnings and associated costs.

Other material estimates and judgements made by management in applying the IFRS Accounting Standards are the same as those applied in the 2024 annual financial statements..

None of the amendments to IFRS Accounting Standards effective from 1 January 2025 has had a significant impact on the condensed interim financial statements. Vår Energi has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Note 2 Business combination

On 31 January 2024, Vår Energi completed the acquisition of Neptune Energy Norway AS (renamed Vår Energi Norge AS at completion of the transaction). The transaction was announced on 23 June 2023.

Vår Energi paid a cash consideration of USD 2.1 billion, and the transaction was financed through available liquidity and credit facilities. The acquired assets, all located on the NCS, are complementary to Vår Energi's current portfolio and highly cash generative with low production cost and limited near-term investments. The transaction also strengthens Vår Energi's position in all existing hub areas and combine two strong organisations with extensive NCS experience.

The acquisition date for accounting purposes is 1 January 2024. The acquisition is regarded as a business combination and has been accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3. A purchase price allocation (PPA) has been performed as of 1. January 2024 to allocate the consideration to fair value of the assets and liabilities in Neptune Energy Norway AS.

USD million 31 Jan 2024 Value of cash consideration 2 106.8

Each identifiable asset and liability are measured at fair value on the acquisition date based on guidance in IFRS 13. The standard defines fair value as the price that would be received when selling an asset or paid transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This definition emphasises that fair value is a market-based measurement and not an entity-specific measurement. When measuring fair value Vår Energi has applied the assumptions that market participants would use under current market conditions (including assumptions regarding risk) when valuing the specific asset or liability.

Acquired property, plant and equipment has been valued using the income approach. Trade receivables have been recognised at full contractual amounts due as they relate to large and credit-worthy customers, and there have been no significant uncollectible amounts in Neptune Energy Norway AS historically.

Note 2 Business combination - continued

For accounting purposes, the recognised amounts of assets and liabilities assumed as at the date of the acquisition were as follows:

USD million 01 Jan 2024
Goodwill 1
529.9
Other intangible assets 192.5
Property, plant and equipment 1
976.3
Right of use assets 10.5
Other non-current assets 8.2
Inventories 19.5
Trade receivables 174.2
Other current receivables and financial assets 191.4
Cash and cash equivalents 776.1
Total assets 4 878.6
Deferred tax liabilities 1
120.9
Asset retirement obligation 368.3
Pension liabilities 23.6
Lease liabilities, non-current 7.0
Other non-current liabilities 284.8
Accounts payable 81.7
Taxes payable 705.9
Lease liabilities, current 3.5
Other current liabilities 176.2
Total liabilities 2 771.9
Net assets and liabilities recognised 2
106.8
Fair value of consideration paid on acquisition 2 106.8

The goodwill of USD 1 530 million arises principally because of the following factors:

    1. The ability to capture synergies that can be realised from managing a larger portfolio of both acquired and existing fields on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, including workforce ("residual goodwill").
    1. The requirement to recognise deferred tax assets and liabilities for the difference between the assigned fair values and the tax bases of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Licences under development and licences in production can only be sold in a market after tax, based on a decision made by the Norwegian Ministry of Finance pursuant to the Petroleum Taxation Act Section 10. The assessment of fair value of such licences is therefore based on cash flows after tax. Nevertheless, in accordance with IAS 12 para 15 and 19, a provision is made for deferred tax corresponding to the tax rate multiplied by the difference between the acquisition cost and the tax base. The offsetting entry to this deferred tax is goodwill. Hence, goodwill arises as a technical effect of deferred tax ("technical goodwill").

None of the goodwill recognised will be deductible for tax purposes.

In first quarter 2025 a reallocation of the PPA value has been performed due to new information available. The PP&E has been decreased by USD 24 million, Goodwill has been increased by USD 66 million, Other non-current liabilities has been increased by USD 252 million and Deferred tax has been decreased by USD 210 million compared to fourth quarter of 2024.

The purchase price allocations above are final and based on currently available information about fair values as of the acquisition date, in accordance with guidance in IFRS 3.

Note 12 Impairments

Impairment testing

Impairment tests of individual cash-generating units (CGUs) are performed annually and quarterly when impairment triggers are identified. Impairment testing of fixed assets and related intangible assets was performed as of 30 September 2025.

Key assumptions applied for impairment testing purposes as of 30 September 2025 are based on Vår Energi's macroeconomic assumptions. Below is an overview of the key assumptions applied:

Prices

The oil and gas prices are based on the forward curve for the next three-year period and from the fourth year the oil and gas prices are based on the company's long-term price assumptions. Vår Energi's long term oil price assumption is 75 USD/bbl (real 2024) and long-term gas price assumption is €29/MWh (real 2024), unchanged compared to the assumed prices per 30 June 2025.

The nominal oil prices (USD/bbl) applied in the impairment tests are as follows:

Year 31 Dec 2024 30 Jun 2025 30 Sep 2025
2025 74.0 66.8 66.7
2026 74.5 68.9 67.8
2027 78.5 75.1 73.8

The nominal gas prices (USD/boe) applied in the impairment tests are as follows:

Year 31 Dec 2024 30 Jun 2025 30 Sep 2025
2025 83.1 67.9 65.0
2026 65.6 65.0 62.7
2027 59.1 58.8 59.4

Note 12 Impairments - continued

Oil and gas reserves

Future cash flows are calculated based on expected production profiles and estimated proven, probable and risked possible reserves.

Future expenditure

Future capex, opex and abex are calculated based on expected production profiles and the best estimate of related cost.

Discount rate

The post tax nominal discount rate used is 8.0 percent, unchanged vs. 30 June 2025.

Currency rates 2025 2026 2027 2028 onwards
NOK/USD 10.0 10.0 10.0 10.0
NOK/Euro 11.7 11.6 11.3 11.0

The long-term currency rates are unchanged vs. previous quarter.

Inflation

Inflation is assumed to be 3% in 2025, 2.5% in 2026 and then 2% in future years. The inflation rate assumption for 2026 is updated from 2% per 30 June 2025.

Impairments charge/reversal

The impairment testing as of 30 September 2025 identified an impairment reversal for Balder CGU of USD 227.6 million, largely attributed to transportation price updates. Goodwill impairment for Njord and Gjøa, was recorded at USD 20.5 million, mainly resulting from lower short-term commodity prices. Additionally, exploration disposals included an associated impairment of technical goodwill valued at USD 5.4 million.

Sensitivity analysis

The table below shows how the impairment or reversal of impairment of assets and technical goodwill would be affected by changes in the various assumptions, given that the remaining assumptions are constant.

The sensitivities are created for illustration purposes, based on a simplified method and assumes no changes in other input factors. Significant reductions in oil and gas prices or production profiles are likely to result in changes to business plans, field cut-off as well as other factors used when estimating an asset's recoverable amount. Changes in such input factors may reduce the actual impairment amount compared to the illustrative sensitivity below.

Climate related risks

The climate related risk assessment is generally described in the company's annual report. Impairment testing includes a step up of CO2 tax/fees from current levels to approximately NOK 2 371 per ton in 2030 (real 2025).

Vår Energi has Credit Discount Agreements with several banks. Under the arrangements the ownership, including credit risk, of invoices for oil and gas sales are transferred to the respective banks, and the receivables to which the payments relate are derecognised from Vår Energi's balance sheet. Payments to the banks are made when Vår Energi receives payments from the customers.

Trade receivables are presented net of payments received from the banks for the sold invoices, as Vår Energi has retained the right to receive payments from the customers and obligation to pay these cash flows to the banks without material delay, but only to the extent Vår Energi collects the payments from the customers.

Note 15 Financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments

Vår Energi uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposures in fluctuations in interest rates and commodity prices.

In May 2023 interest rate swaps were entered into for the same amount as the EUR 600 million Senior Note. Under the swaps, the Company receives a fixed amount equal to the coupon payment for the EUR senior notes and pays a floating rate to the swap providers. The interest rate swaps are accounted for as a fair value hedge. Interest swaps are reflected at fair value with fair value changes to be accounted for as other financial income/expenses. Bond debt is initially recognised at nominal value. The carrying value is adjusted to reflect changes in interest level with fair value changes accounted for as other financial income/expenses. Inefficiencies in hedging are measured and booked against fair value of bond debt and accounted for as other financial income/expenses (note 7).

As of 30 September 2025, Vår Energi had the following volumes of commodity derivatives in place with the following strike prices:

As of 30 September 2025, the fair value of outstanding commodity derivatives assets is USD 0.8 million.

Unrealised gains and losses are recognised in OCI. Note that the cost price (time value agreed at the inception of the contracts) for the options is paid at the time of realisation (time of exercise or expiration) and that this deferred payment is presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet, see below table.

Note 17 Share capital and shareholders

As of 30 September 2025, the total share capital of the company is USD 46 million or NOK 399 million. The share capital is divided into 2 496 406 246 ordinary shares and 4 Class B shares. Each share has a nominal value of NOK 0.16. The ordinary shares represent NOK 399 424 999.36 of the total share capital, while the Class B shares represent NOK 0.64 of the total share capital.

All shares rank pari passu and have equal rights in all respects, including voting rights, dividends and other distributions, except for the class B shares with respect to board appointments. Four members to the board, will be elected by the general meeting with a simple majority among the votes cast for Class B shares. Such number to be reduced if the holder of the Class B shares holds less shares of the Company.

Vår Energi ASA's share saving program gives employees the opportunity to buy shares in Vår Energi ASA through monthly salary deductions. If the shares are retained for two full calendar years with continuous employment after the end of the saving year, the employees will be awarded a bonus share for each share they have purchased. This will be settled by Vår Energi ASA buying shares in the market. The award is treated as equity settled. The dilutive effect of equity settled shares under the share saving program is immaterial to the EPS calculation.

The estimate is based on executing a concept for abandonment in accordance with the Petroleum Activities Act and international regulations and guidelines. The calculations assume an inflation rate of 3% in 2025, 2.5% in 2026 and 2% in future years and discount rates between 3.8% - 4.0% per 30 September 2025. The assumptions for inflation rates were changed from 2% to 2.5% for 2026 while the discount rates were increased from 3.5% - 3.8% per 30 June 2025. The discount rates are based on risk-free interest without addition of credit margin.

Third quarter 2025 payment for decommissioning of oil and gas fields (abex) is mainly related to Statfjord, Ekofisk and Balder area.

Note 22 Commitments, provisions and contingent consideration

The company has significant contractual commitments for capital and operating expenditures from its participation in operated and partner operated exploration, development and production projects.

During the normal course of its business, the company will be involved in disputes, including tax disputes. The company makes accruals for probable liabilities related to litigation and claims based on management's best judgment and in line with IAS37 and IAS12.

After disagreement between the participants in the Breidablikk Unit, the Ministry Energy decided on the apportionment of the Breidablikk field on 29 June 2021, the decision was confirmed by the King in Counsel on 8 October 2021. Based on this tract participation Vår Energi's equity in the Breidablikk field was 34.4%. Vår Energi claimed that the Company had received approximately 5% less than the Company was entitled to. Sør-Rogaland District Court rejected Vår Energi's claim on 30 January 2024. Gulating Appeal Court rejected the appeal in decision 6 June 2025. Vår Energi has submitted an appeal to the Supreme Court.

Oslo District Court on 18 January 2024 delivered a decision in a case where Greenpeace and Natur og Ungdom had sued the Norwegian State represented by the Ministry of Energy. The Court concluded that the government's approvals of the respective Plan for Development and Operation ("PDO") for the three fields; Breidablikk, Tyrving and Yggdrasil are invalid due to insufficient impact assessments of climate effects of CO2 emissions related to the use of produced petroleum by the end user. The Court further granted a temporary injunction prohibiting the State from granting these fields any further approvals that require a valid PDO approval until the matter is resolved. Vår Energi is not a party to this dispute, but the outcome may have implications for Vår Energi as a licensee holding 34.4% interests in the Breidablikk field. The Ministry appealed to Court of Appeal, and a decision is expected mid October 2025.

The Court of Appeal dismissed the motion for a temporary injunction for the three fields, and this decision was appealed to the Supreme Court. On 11 April 2025 the Supreme Court ruled that the Court of Appeal had not applied a correct understanding of the law in its reasoning and referred the matter concerning the temporary injunction back to the Court of Appeal. Until the Court of Appeal decides otherwise, the temporary injunction established by the Court in the first instance is suspended. There are no effects on the Financial Statements related to this court case.

In October Vår Energi entered into an agreement with Total Energie to acquire their 39.896% ownership in the Ekofisk PPF project. The purchase price is USD 147 million and completion of the transaction is subject to Final Investment Decision for the project and customary regulatory approvals, including the carve-out of the PL018F licence from the PL018 licence. The transaction is expected to be completed by end 2025
