| FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The 2028 Notes are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. For purposes of estimating the fair value of these instruments, the Company used quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s risk management contracts and warrant liability are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. To estimate the fair value of this instrument, the Company used observable market data and/or other sources utilizing assumptions that market participants would use to determine fair value. Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market conditions, such as commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates, will affect the Company’s cash flow, income, or the value of its financial instruments.
Commodity Price Risk
The Company’s risk management program is designed to reduce the volatility of revenue and cash flow, generate sufficient cash flows to service debt obligations, and fund the Company’s operations. The Company’s risk management liabilities may consist of hedging instruments such as fixed price swaps and option structures, including costless collars on WTI, WCS differentials, condensate differential, natural gas and electricity swaps. The Company does not use financial derivatives for speculative purposes.
The Company’s commodity price risk management program does not involve margin accounts that require posting of margin with increased volatility in underlying commodity prices. Financial risk management contracts are measured at fair value, with gains and losses on re-measurement included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.
The Company’s financial risk management contracts are subject to master netting agreements that create the legal right to settle the instruments on a net basis. The following table summarizes the gross asset and liability positions of the Company’s individual risk management contracts that are offset in the consolidated statements of financial position:
As at December 31, 2025, the following financial commodity risk management contracts were in place, with oil volumes hedged in barrels (“bbl”) and natural gas volumes hedged in gigajoules (“GJ”):

Subsequent to December 31, 2025, Greenfire entered into the following financial commodity risk management contracts:
The following table illustrates the potential impact of changes in commodity prices on the Company’s net income, before tax, based on the financial risk management contracts in place at December 31, 2025:
Foreign Currency Risk Management
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on U.S. Dollar denominated cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivables, risk management contracts, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, and long-term debt. As at December 31, 2025, Greenfire’s net foreign exchange risk exposure was a US$9.3 million asset (December 31, 2024 – US$218.4 million liability), and a 10% change in the foreign exchange rate would result in a $1.3 million change in the foreign exchange gain or loss (December 31, 2024 - $31.4 million).
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to borrowings drawn under the Senior Credit Facility, as the interest charged on the credit facility fluctuates with floating interest rates. Currently no amounts are drawn on the Senior Credit Facility. Any letters of credit issued are subject to fixed interest rates and are not exposed to changes in interest rates.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s accounts receivable. The Company is primarily exposed to credit risk from receivables associated with its oil sales. The Company manages its credit risk exposure by transacting with high-quality credit worthy counterparties and monitoring credit worthiness and/or credit ratings on an ongoing basis. Trade receivables from oil sales are generally collected on the 25th day of the month following production. Joint interest receivables are typically collected within one to three months of the invoice being issued. Accrued joint interest receivables represent the Company’s partners’ share of operating, and capital costs incurred or accrued at the reporting date that have not yet been invoiced. All risk management contracts are held with large financial institutions. The Company has not previously experienced any material credit losses on the collection of accounts receivable.
At December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024 the Company was exposed to concentration risk associated with its outstanding trade receivables and joint interest receivables balances. Of the Company’s trade receivables at December 31, 2025, 86% was receivable from three companies (December 31, 2024- 99% receivable from a single company). At December 31, 2025, 100% of the Company’s joint interest receivables and accrued joint interest receivables were held by a single company (December 31, 2024- 100% by a single company). Maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of accounts receivable on the statements of financial position. Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company has received $18.0 million from its joint interest partner. Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient available reserves to meet its financial obligations at any point in time. The Company expects to achieve this objective through prudent capital spending, an active commodity risk management program and through strategies such as continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows from operating, financing and investing activities, and available credit facilities. Management believes that future cash flows generated from these sources will be adequate to settle Greenfire’s financial liabilities.
The following table details the Company’s contractual maturities of its financial liabilities at December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024:
