NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020
Tabular amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per-share amounts (unaudited)
1. REPORTING ENTITY
Storm Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or "Storm"), is a crude oil and natural gas exploration and development company incorporated in the province of Alberta, Canada on June 8, 2010 and is listed on the TSX under the symbol “SRX”. The Company operates primarily in the province of British Columbia and its head office is located at Suite 600, 215 – 2[nd] Street S.W., Calgary, Alberta T2P 1M4. The Company became a reporting issuer in August 2010.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) include the accounts of Storm and its wholly owned subsidiary, Storm Gas Resource Corp. All inter-entity transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Storm’s operations are viewed as a single operating segment by the chief decision maker of the Company for the purpose of resource allocation and assessing asset performance.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Statement of Compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements have been condensed or have been disclosed on an annual basis only. Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2020. All financial information is reported in thousands of Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company.
These financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 11, 2021.
Basis of Measurement
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis consistent with prior years, and follow the historical cost convention, except for certain financial assets and financial liabilities, which are measured at fair value, as explained in Note 12.
Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, shareholders' equity, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are continuously reviewed with the financial statement effect being recognized in the reporting period that the changes to estimates are made.
Critical judgments applied by management to accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts in the financial statements are described in Note 4 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The continued global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic contributes to economic uncertainty, with more volatile commodity prices, currency exchange rates and interest rates. The duration and severity of the business disruptions and continued reduction in consumer activity internationally and the resulting financial effect is difficult to reliably estimate. The results of the economic downturn and any potential resulting direct or indirect effect on the Company has been considered in management’s estimates at period end. However, there could be further prospective material effects in future periods.

5. BANK INDEBTEDNESS
As at June 30, 2021, the Company had an extendible revolving credit facility in the amount of $190 million (December 31, 2020 - $190 million) based on a bank determined borrowing base related to the Company’s producing reserves. The credit facility is available to the Company until May 27, 2022, at which time the borrowing base amount will be reviewed and in the ordinary course of business the Company will have the option to extend the facility for an additional year subject to approval by the lenders. If the credit facility is not extended, the facility moves into a term phase whereby the outstanding loan amount is to be repaid in full one year later. In the event that the lenders reduce the borrowing base below the amount drawn, the Company would have 90 days to eliminate any borrowing base shortfall by repaying the amount drawn in excess of the re-determined borrowing base or by providing additional security or other consideration satisfactory to the lenders. Repayments of principal are not required provided that the borrowings under the credit facility do not exceed the authorized borrowing amount. Interest is paid on the utilized portion of the credit facility at bankers’ acceptance rates, plus a stamping fee. Collateral comprises a floating charge demand debenture on the assets of the Company.
As at June 30, 2021, the Company had issued letters of credit in the amount of $14.1 million (December 31, 2020 - $13.7 million) primarily in support of future natural gas transportation and processing obligations.
At June 30, 2021, debt including outstanding letters of credit amounted to $121.7 million, representing approximately 64% of the available credit facility.

34
As at June 30, 2021, the total undiscounted amount of the estimated future cash flows to settle the Company’s lease liability over the remaining lease term is $2.4 million.
8 . DECOMMISSIONING LIABILITY
The Company provides for the future cost of decommissioning crude oil and natural gas production assets, including well sites, gathering systems and facilities. The total decommissioning liability is estimated based on the Company’s net ownership interest in wells and facilities, the estimated costs to abandon and reclaim the wells, gathering systems and facilities and the estimated timing of future costs. The total estimated inflated and undiscounted liability required to settle the Company’s decommissioning obligation is approximately $43.1 million (December 31, 2020 - $40.5 million), with the majority of payments being made in the years 2034 to 2054. A risk-free discount rate of 1.8% (December 31, 2020 - 1.2%) and an inflation rate of 1.7% (December 31, 2020 - 1.5%) was used to calculate the present value of the decommissioning obligation, amounting to $30.5 million at June 30, 2021.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the carrying amount of the obligation:
| Six Months Ended | Year Ended | |
|---|---|---|

Each performance award entitles the holder to an award value equal to the number of shares designated in the performance award grant, multiplied by a payout multiplier ranging from 0 to 1.5X which is dependent on the performance of the Company relative to predefined corporate performance measures for a particular period. The Company also has a director share award plan where each director share award entitles an eligible director to receive an award value equal to the number of shares designated in the director award grant. Performance awards and director share awards vest one-half on the second anniversary of the grant date and the remaining one-half on the third anniversary of the grant date. The Company, at its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the option of settling vested awards with common shares acquired in the market or by payment of the award value in cash, or by a combination thereof. The value of performance awards and director share awards is determined at the grant date based on the volume weighted average price of the shares on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of grant.

- (1) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the Company incurred net losses and therefore there were no dilutive effects of stock options.
12. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s financial instruments include accounts receivable, prepaids and deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, bank indebtedness and risk management contracts.
Storm classifies the fair value of financial instruments according to the following hierarchy based on the amount of observable inputs used to value the instrument.
-
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide continual and verifiable pricing information.
-
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1. Prices in Level 2 are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities and interest rates, time value and volatility factors, which can be substantially observed or corroborated in the marketplace.
-
Level 3 – Valuations in this level are those with inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
The carrying value of bank indebtedness approximates its fair value as it bears interest at market rates. The fair value of the Company’s risk management contracts described below is based on forward prices of commodities and interest rates available in the marketplace and they are therefore classified as Level 2 financial instruments. The Company does not have any financial instruments classified as Level 3 and there were no transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
The Company’s risk management contracts are subject to master netting agreements that create a legally enforceable right to offset by counterparty the related financial assets and financial liabilities on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position. The following is a summary of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to offset as at June 30, 2021:

Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable tend to be concentrated with a limited number of marketers of the Company’s production as well as joint operation partners and are subject to normal industry credit risk. Receivables from crude oil and natural gas marketers are typically collected on or about the 25[th] of the following month. The Company's production is sold to organizations whose credit worthiness is in part assessable from publicly available information. As at June 30, 2021, the Company’s three major energy customers with investment grade credit ratings accounted for $20.9 million of total receivables (June 30, 2020 - $9.5 million) and 89% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 (three and six months ended June 30, 2020 - 90% and 95%, respectively). Where operations involve partners in a joint operation, the Company attempts to mitigate the risk from joint operation receivables by obtaining pre-approval from its partners in advance of significant capital expenditures. Receivables from joint operations are typically collected within one to three months of the joint operator bill being issued. As at June 30, 2021, there were no receivables outstanding for more than 60 days. No material default on outstanding receivables is anticipated as none of the Company’s outstanding receivables are considered past due at June 30, 2021.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at June 30, 2021 was the carrying amount of accounts receivable of $26.3 million. No receivables were impaired at June 30, 2021.
Commodity Price Risk
The Company uses risk management contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, by fixing prices of future deliveries of crude oil and natural gas and thus providing stability of funds flow. Although the Company had no crude oil production at June 30, 2021, part of its condensate and NGL stream is sold at a price based on crude oil. Accordingly, a financial investment based on crude oil is used as a proxy for the Company’s condensate and NGL stream.
Fair values for risk management contracts are based on quotes received from financial institution counterparties and are calculated using current market rates and prices and option pricing models using forward pricing curves and implied volatility.
At the date of this report, the Company had entered into the following outstanding financial risk management contracts in place to manage commodity price risk:

Physical Delivery Sales Contracts
The Company also enters into physical delivery sales contracts from time to time to manage commodity price risk. These contracts are considered normal executory contracts and are not recognized in the consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) until volumes are delivered.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company may enter into interest rate swap contracts to manage the uncertainty of variable interest rates by fixing the variable component of a portion of the interest paid on the Company’s revolving bank facility. As at June 30, 2021, the Company had the following outstanding financial risk management contracts in place to manage interest rate risk:
| Notional | Fixed | ||||

Risk Management
Risk management contracts may be used by the Company to manage exposure to market risks related to commodity prices, exchange rates and interest rates. The use of financial risk management contracts is governed by Storm’s Board of Directors and follows guidelines and limits approved by the Board. Storm does not use derivative contracts for speculative purposes. All derivative contracts are classified at fair value through profit and loss and measured at fair value, with gains and losses on re-measurement included as a component of unrealized risk management contracts in the period in which they arise.
The fair market value of these risk management contracts at June 30, 2021 was a net liability position of $47.3 million (December 31, 2020 - net liability position of $8.4 million) and is included in current and non-current assets or current and non-current liabilities based on the contractual terms specific to the instruments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, this resulted in unrealized mark-to-market losses of $30.3 million and $39.0 million, respectively, (June 30, 2020 - unrealized mark-to-market losses of $13.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively) when measured against the fair market value at the end of the preceding reporting period. These amounts are recognized in the consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).
The Company realized losses from risk management price contracts in place in the amount of $9.1 million and $14.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 (June 30, 2020 - realized gains of $6.5 million and $9.3 million, respectively).
Sensitivities
The following table summarizes the effects of movement in commodity prices and interest rates on net loss due to changes in the fair value of risk management contracts in place at June 30, 2021. Changes in the fair value generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of a change in an assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear.
