DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Greenfire is an oil sands producer focused on the development of its long-life and low-decline thermal oil assets in the Athabasca region of Alberta, Canada, with its registered offices in Calgary, Alberta. Greenfire plans to leverage its large resource base and significant infrastructure in place to drive meaningful, capital-efficient production growth. As part of the Company’s commitment to operational excellence, safe and reliable operations remain a top priority for Greenfire.
Greenfire’s common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “GFR”.
Throughout 2024, certain limited partnerships comprising Waterous Energy Fund and its affiliates (collectively, “WEF”), through a series of transactions acquired 56.5% of the Company’s outstanding common shares. The final transaction in this series occurred on December 23, 2024 (the “Change of Control Transaction”). At December 31, 2025, approximately 72.0% of the Company’s common shares were owned by WEF following further transactions occurring in 2025.
GREENFIRE’S ASSETS AND STRATEGY
Greenfire’s principal assets are the Hangingstone Facilities. The Hangingstone Facilities consist of two Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (“SAGD”) oil production facilities: the Expansion Asset and the Demo Asset. Located approximately 50 kilometers south of Fort McMurray, Alberta, these facilities are operated by Greenfire, with the Company holding a 75% working interest in the Expansion Asset and a 100% working interest in the Demo Asset.
The Company’s strategic objective is to manage and enhance its asset portfolio to maximize long-term net asset value per share for Greenfire shareholders. This goal is expected to be achieved by investing in proven, industry-standard SAGD optimization techniques at the Hangingstone Facilities, which are designed to increase production levels to leverage existing facility spare capacities, while maintaining disciplined control over its operating cost structures.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Drilling Operations
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Greenfire commenced drilling operations at Pad 7, its inaugural SAGD well pad at the Expansion Asset. Pad 7 is comprised of 14 well pairs and is located northeast of the Expansion Asset’s Central Processing Facility, adjacent to existing production. First oil from Pad 7 is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026. The Company plans additional drilling from existing pads in 2026, including a redrill on Pad 6 with first oil expected in late 2026 and three new well pairs from Pad 5 with first oil anticipated in 2027. Following encouraging results from Greenfire’s 2026 oil sands exploration well program to date, the Company’s next SAGD well pad, Pad 8, is expected to comprise eight well pairs, with drilling anticipated to commence in the first quarter of 2027.
At the Demo Asset, two production wells that had been shut-in prior to 2018 were redrilled in the fourth quarter of 2025. Incremental production from these wells is expected later in the first half of 2026. Operational efforts at the Demo Asset remain focused on base production optimization.

Production and Steam Generation Updates
Greenfire’s average production for January and February 2026 was approximately 15,440 bbls/d and 14,330 bbls/d, respectively. While production from the Demo Asset has exceeded expectations year-to-date due to continued optimization of base well performance, production from the Expansion Asset is currently below the Company's projections, principally due to unplanned downtime associated with a highly productive well. This well has since been redrilled and is scheduled to be back online in March 2026. Regarding the previously disclosed refurbishment of the second steam generator at the Expansion Asset, this project was successfully completed at year-end 2025. With full steam capacity resumed at the Expansion Asset, Greenfire is currently working to restore production.
Regulatory Engagement and Installation of Sulphur Removal Facilities
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Greenfire completed the installation and commissioning of sulphur removal facilities at the Expansion Asset. These facilities are now fully operational, and the Company has restored compliance with regulatory limits for sulphur dioxide emissions.
Refinancing Initiatives
Greenfire completed its previously announced refinancing initiatives on December 19, 2025, including the issuance of 55.1 million common shares under a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) for gross proceeds of $298.7 million and the redemption of all outstanding 12.00% senior secured notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”). Refer to the “Capital Resources and Liquidity” section in this MD&A for additional details.

In light of the unplanned well downtime at the Expansion Asset during the first quarter of 2026, in conjunction with slightly steeper-than-anticipated base production decline rates, Greenfire is lowering its 2026 production guidance. As previously publicized, the Expansion Asset has been historically undercapitalized with no new well-pairs drilled at the asset since 2017, resulting in the existing base production well-pairs approaching higher recovery factors. Encouragingly, Greenfire has budgeted for 25 new well-pairs across three new SAGD pads to be spud over the following twelve months, and the recent late-life base production challenges at the Expansion Asset bear no impact on the estimated production performance of our growth capital program.

| (1) | Bitumen sales differ from bitumen production due to inventory fluctuations. |
Greenfire’s oil sales include both bitumen blended with diluent, which is transported by pipeline, and a smaller portion of undiluted bitumen, which is trucked to a sales point.
Bitumen production decreased 19% (or 3,685 bbl/d) and 16% (or 3,123 bbl/d) for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, when compared to the same periods of 2024. These decreases were attributable to the Expansion Asset operating at reduced capacity due to the unplanned loss of a steam generation unit in the first quarter of 2025, combined with natural field declines. Steam generation capacity was fully restored in December 2025.

WCS Hardisty
WCS is a blend of heavy crude oils that serves as the pricing benchmark for Canadian heavy oil at Hardisty, Alberta. Greenfire’s bitumen sales revenue is most directly correlated to WCS pricing. WCS is priced at a discount to WTI, with this difference referred to as the WCS differential. The WCS differential is subject to variability driven by factors such as production volumes, egress capacity, scheduled infrastructure maintenance, refinery demand, and other market conditions in Western Canada.
Condensate
The Company uses condensate, sourced from the Edmonton area, as a blending diluent to facilitate the transportation of its produced bitumen. The price of condensate has historically been correlated to the price of WTI.

Greenfire uses risk management contracts to protect its cash flows against volatility in commodity prices. Financial contracts settled in the period result in realized gains or losses based on the market price compared to the contract price and the notional volume outstanding.
During the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized realized gains of $13.5 million and $31.3 million, respectively, compared to a realized gain of $1.0 million and a realized loss of $27.7 million for the same periods of 2024. Realized gains occur when the average price of the hedged commodity settles below the contract price, while realized losses occur in the opposite scenario. Generally, realized gains and losses on risk management contracts resulting from fluctuations in energy prices are largely offset by an inverse gain or loss on physical sales or purchases.
As the forward markets for commodities fluctuate, changes in the fair value of unsettled financial contracts are reported as unrealized gains or losses. When adjusting the risk management contracts to their fair value on December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized a non-cash unrealized loss of $2.0 million in the three months there ended compared to a non-cash unrealized loss of $9.9 million for the same quarter of 2024. The unrealized gain on risk management contracts for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $11.3 million compared to $0.2 million for the same period of 2024.

| (1) | Represents the differential between the cost of purchased condensate and the sales value recovered on those same volumes when sold as diluted bitumen. Computed as oil sales minus diluent expense, divided by barrels of bitumen sold, with oil sales per barrel then subtracted. |
To facilitate the transportation of bitumen, the Company uses condensate as a blending diluent. Greenfire’s diluent expense includes the cost of condensate and its associated transportation costs. Diluent expense per barrel represents the differential between the cost of purchased condensate and the sales value recovered on those same volumes when sold as diluted bitumen at the point of sale.
Diluent expense per barrel decreased by 18% (or $2.06/bbl) to $9.71/bbl for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $11.77/bbl for the same period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, diluent expense per barrel declined by 13% (or $1.52/bbl) to $10.23/bbl compared to $11.75/bbl for the same period in 2024. These decreases reflect a higher proportion of undiluted bitumen sales within total sales and a lower price differential between WCS and Edmonton Condensate (C5+) (see “Production and Commodity Pricing – Commodity Prices” section of this MD&A).

Transportation expenses include the costs to move bitumen between the Hangingstone assets and to the sales points. Marketing fees relate to exclusive marketing contracts with a reputable international energy marketing company. These exclusive marketing contracts are expected to expire between April 2026 and October 2028.
Transportation and marketing expense per barrel increased 11% (or $0.84/bbl) for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to $8.18/bbl compared to $7.34/bbl in the same quarter of 2024. Transportation and marketing expense per barrel increased by 15% (or $1.09/bbl) for the year ended December 31, 2025, to $8.52/bbl compared to $7.43/bbl for the year ended December 31, 2024. These increases were mainly due to higher long-haul trucking costs associated with selling a greater proportion of bitumen on an undiluted basis.

| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 6 |

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, operating expenses decreased 33% (or $13.5 million) to $27.3 million compared to $40.9 million in the same quarter of 2024. Energy operating costs decreased 33% (or $4.6 million) to $9.4 million compared to $13.9 million in the same quarter of 2024. This decrease is attributable to the loss of steam generation capacity, discussed above, and lower bitumen production. Non-energy operating expenses decreased 33% (or $9.0 million) to $18.0 million compared to $26.9 million in the same quarter of 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to an inventory build that deferred costs into the first quarter of 2026, lower employee costs, and the timing of the annual turnaround at the Demo Asset, which occurred in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, operating expenses decreased 16% (or $23.9 million) to $129 million compared to $152.9 million in 2024. Energy operating costs decreased 31% (or $15.1 million) to $33.5 million compared to $48.5 million in 2024. This decrease is attributable to the loss of steam generation capacity, discussed above, and lower bitumen production. Non-energy operating costs decreased by 8% (or $8.8 million) to $95.5 million compared to $104.3 million in 2024. This decrease was mainly driven by lower maintenance and well-servicing costs. In 2024, Greenfire incurred approximately $4.4 million to replace failed downhole temperature sensors.

The Company’s depletion and depreciation expense increased by 3% (or $2.6 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, despite a 16% decrease in production volumes. The increase reflects revisions to forecasted development costs for Greenfire’s undeveloped reserves.

Operating netback per barrel increased 7% (or $2.33/bbl) for the year ended December 31, 2025, to $34.82/bbl compared to $32.49/bbl in the same period of 2024. The increases in the 2025 periods were the result of higher realized gains on risk management contracts, as well as lower diluent and operating expenses per barrel, partially offset by lower realized oil sales per barrel.

G&A expenses include head office and corporate costs such as salaries and employee benefits, legal fees, audit and tax-related fees and other professional services, and may also include expenses related to corporate strategic initiatives if any, among other costs.
For the three months ended December 31, 2025, G&A expenses decreased by 60% (or $5.6 million) to $3.8 million compared to $9.3 million for the same period of 2024. This decrease reflects $6.7 million of one-time costs incurred in the fourth quarter of 2024 related to the evaluation of strategic alternatives and the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, which was subsequently terminated, partially offset by the introduction of a new employee incentive structure consisting solely of an enhanced annual cash bonus, which replaced the prior omnibus share incentive plan in January 2025. Refer to the “Stock-Based Compensation” section of this MD&A for further information.
G&A expenses remained relatively consistent for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 2024. G&A expenses in 2024 included $7.7 million of one-time costs related to the evaluation of strategic alternatives and the implementation of a shareholders’ rights plan, which was subsequently terminated. In 2025, G&A expenses include a one-time expense of $2.0 million to WEF to reimburse costs incurred in connection with its successful challenge of the Company’s adoption of a shareholders’ rights plan (see “Related Party Transaction”). The offsetting increase in 2025 is attributable to the new cash-based incentive structure described above.

Interest expenses include cash-settled interest on the 2028 Notes, Senior Credit Facility, EDC Facility, and other related charges. Interest expenses decreased by 13% for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the corresponding periods in 2024. This decrease was driven by a series of repayments of the 2028 Notes, including $84.3 million (US$61.0 million) in July 2024.
Financing expenses include the amortization of debt issuance costs, redemption premiums on the 2028 Notes, accretion of lease liability and accretion of decommissioning liabilities. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, financing expense increased by $26.8 million to $28.8 million compared to $2.1 million for the same quarter of 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2025, financing expenses increased by $22.0 million to $36.6 million compared to $14.6 million for the same period of 2024. These increases primarily reflect the voluntary early redemption of the 2028 Notes at 106% of their principal amount and the associated expensing of the remaining unamortized debt issuance costs and original issue discount.
Refer to the “Capital Resources and Liquidity” section in this MD&A for definitions and more details of Greenfire’s long-term debt, revolving credit facility and EDC Facility.
Exploration Expenses
The Company’s exploration expenses primarily consist of escalating mineral lease rentals on undeveloped lands. During the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, exploration expenses were $0.5 million and $2.2 million respectively, compared to $0.1 million and $1.8 million for the same respective periods in 2024.
Other Income
Other income primarily consists of interest earned on the Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances. The Company’s other income for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, was $0.9 million and $3.4 million respectively, compared to $1.6 million and $5.0 million for the same respective periods in 2024. The decreases were attributable to lower average cash and cash equivalent balances during the three months and year ended December 31, 2025.
Foreign Exchange Loss (Gain)
The Company’s foreign exchange loss (gain) is driven by fluctuations in the US dollar to Canadian dollar exchange rate and was primarily related to the principal and interest components of the Company’s US dollar denominated debt.
In the three months ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recorded a foreign exchange gain of $2.7 million compared to a loss of $18.6 million for the comparative period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recorded a foreign exchange gain of $11.7 million, compared to a loss of $26.1 million for the comparative period in 2024. These variances were primarily driven by the revaluation of the US$-denominated 2028 Notes, reflecting the impact of fluctuations in the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar.
Loss (Gain) on Revaluation of Warrants
On September 20, 2023, the Company issued approximately 7.5 million warrants. Each warrant was initially exercisable for one common share of Greenfire at an exercise price of USD$11.50 per share. In connection with the Rights Offering closed on December 17, 2025, the warrants were adjusted to be exercisable for 1.171 common shares at an exercise price of USD$9.82 per share. Refer to the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Rights Offering” section of this MD&A for additional details.
The warrants contain a cashless exercise feature, permitting settlement without the cash payment of the exercise price via the issuance of a net number of common shares. This cashless exercise feature results in the warrants being treated as a financial liability and necessitates their remeasurement at each reporting period.
Upon remeasurement of the warrants to fair value, the Company recognized a loss of $0.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to a gain of $7.0 million in the same period of 2024. The loss in the current period primarily reflects the adjustment to the exercise price discussed above. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a gain of $14.2 million compared to a gain of $0.3 million in the comparative period. The gain recognized in 2025 is attributable to the decline in the Company’s common share price at December 31, 2025, relative to December 31, 2024.

Taxes
Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that the realization of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable based on current tax pools and estimated future income. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized a deferred income tax recovery of $3.9 million compared to a recovery of $84.9 million for the same period in 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire recognized a deferred income tax expense of $7.8 million compared to a deferred tax recovery of $84.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The significant recovery recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024 was due to the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred income tax assets. No comparable recognition occurred in 2025, resulting in the period-over-period variance.

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire experienced a net loss of $8.6 million compared to a net income of $78.6 million in the same quarter of 2024, a decrease of $87.2 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Greenfire generated net income of $47.5 million, compared to a net income of $121.4 million in the same period in 2024, a decrease of $73.9 million. These decreases represent the cumulative effect of the factors discussed above.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 25% (or $15.6 million) for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to $46.9 million compared to $62.5 million for the same quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 15% (or $32.8 million) for the year ended December 31, 2025, to $180.8 million compared to $213.6 million for the same period of 2024. The decline was primarily attributable to lower sales volumes and weaker realized pricing. Although operating netback per barrel improved year-over-year, the impact of reduced production volumes outweighed these per-barrel gains.

RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks that arise as a result of its exploration, development, production and financing activities. These risks include market risk, credit risk, and liquidity 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 is exposed to commodity price risk on its oil sales, diluent expense and energy operating costs due to fluctuations in market prices. The Company continues to execute a risk management program that is primarily designed to reduce the volatility of revenue and cash flow, generate sufficient cash flows to service any 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 differential, condensate differential, natural gas and electricity swaps. The Company does not use financial derivatives for speculative purposes.
The Company’s risk management program does not involve margin accounts that require posting of margin, including in scenarios of 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 (loss) in the period in which they arise.

Foreign Exchange Risk
The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk consists of US Dollar denominated cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, risk management contracts, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, and, to the extent that the Senior Credit Facility is drawn in US dollars, long-term debt. As at December 31, 2025, Greenfire’s net foreign exchange risk exposure was a US$9.3 million asset, and a 10% change in the foreign exchange rate would result in a $1.3 million change in the foreign exchange gain or loss.
| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 11 |

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 and joint interest partners.
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. 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.
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.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The
Company’s capital management objective is to maintain financial flexibility and sufficient liquidity to execute on planned capital
programs, while meeting short and long-term commitments. The Company strives to actively manage its capital structure in response to
changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying oilsands assets. At December 31, 2025, the Company’s
capital structure consists of working capital surplus (deficit), long-term debt and shareholders’ equity. Management believes its
current capital resources and its ability to manage cash flow and working capital levels will allow the Company to meet its current and
future obligations, and to fund the other needs of the business.
Rights Offering
On December 17, 2025, Greenfire completed a rights offering of its common shares to its shareholders. The Rights Offering resulted in the issuance of approximately 55.1 million common shares for gross proceeds of $298.7 million. WEF provided a standby commitment to backstop the Rights Offering by agreeing to acquire any common shares not subscribed for under the Rights Offering. The standby commitment was not utilized as the Rights Offering was oversubscribed. WEF did not receive any compensation in connection with the standby commitment. Greenfire incurred share issuance costs of $2.7 million, net of $0.8 million of tax, associated with this transaction.
Senior Credit Facility
Greenfire has a reserve-based credit facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) comprised of a $30.0 million operating facility and a $245.0 million syndicated facility, providing total committed credit of $275.0 million, with a maturity date of November 30, 2027. The Senior Credit Facility’s borrowing base is subject to a semi-annual review, occurring in May and November each year, and is established based on the lenders’ evaluation of the Company’s bitumen reserves, incorporating their prevailing commodity price assumptions. As at December 31, 2025, there were no amounts drawn on the Senior Credit Facility.
| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 12 |

The Senior Credit Facility is available on a revolving basis, may be drawn in Canadian or U.S. dollars, and bears interest at floating rates based on applicable Canadian or U.S. benchmark rates(1), plus applicable margins. The applicable margin is determined on a quarterly basis by reference to the Company’s trailing twelve-month Debt to EBITDA Ratio(2). The undrawn portion of the Senior Credit Facility is subject to a standby fee.
The Senior Credit Facility is secured by a first-priority security interest over substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Senior Credit Facility contains customary restrictive covenants that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create or permit liens to exist, pay dividends, redeem stock, and sell assets. The Senior Credit Facility is not subject to any financial covenants.
Letter of Credit Facility
Greenfire maintains a separate $55 million letter of credit facility with a financial institution that is supported by Export Development Canada’s Account Performance Security Guarantee program (the “EDC APSG Facility”). The EDC APSG Facility is available on a demand basis. As at December 31, 2025, the Company had $54.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $54.0 million) in letters of credit outstanding under the EDC APSG Facility. Letters of credit issued under the EDC APSG Facility do not reduce Greenfire’s borrowing capacity under the Senior Credit Facility.
Senior Secured Notes
On September 20, 2023, Greenfire issued US$300 million of senior secured notes. The 2028 Notes bore interest at a fixed rate of 12.00%, were to mature on October 1, 2028, and were secured by a second-priority lien on the Company’s assets. On December 19, 2025, the outstanding 2028 Notes were voluntarily redeemed at 106% of their principal amount. All accrued interest on the 2028 Notes was settled concurrently.

As the result of a Change of Control Transaction (see “Description of Business” section in this MD&A), Greenfire was required to make an offer to repurchase the 2028 Notes, or a portion thereof. As at December 31, 2024, the portion of the 2028 Notes held by noteholders who agreed not to participate in the Offer was classified as a non-current liability. The remaining balance was classified as a current liability, as settlement of those amounts was not within the Company’s control.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $35.3 million, compared to $60.2 million for the same period of 2024. The change primarily reflects lower Adjusted EBITDA and movements in non-cash working capital.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, cash provided by operating activities was $136.5 million compared to $144.5 million in 2024. The decrease reflects a reduction in Adjusted EBITDA, partially offset by changes in non-cash working capital.
| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 14 |

Based on current and forecasted production levels, operating expenses, capital expenditures, existing commodity price risk management contracts and current outlook for commodity prices, the Company expects cash provided by operating activities will be sufficient to cover its operational commitments and financial obligations over the next twelve months.
Cash Used in Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was $53.9 million, compared to $6.7 million in the same period of 2024. Cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $58.2 million, compared to $95.4 million in the same period of 2024. These changes were driven by the re-financing activities completed in the fourth quarter of 2025, specifically the redemption of the 2028 Notes, partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of common shares under the Rights Offering. Additional details are provided in “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Rights Offering” and “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Long-Term Debt” in this MD&A.
Cash Used in Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $51.7 million, compared to $24.1 million in the same period of 2024. Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $100.2 million, compared to $94.4 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in both periods was primarily attributable to higher capital expenditures in 2025 as compared to 2024.

Adjusted funds flow was $40.2 million, during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $53.0 million during the same period in 2024. Adjusted funds flow was $143.5 million, during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $171.9 million during the same period in 2024. The decrease in adjusted funds flow in both periods corresponds to the declines in Adjusted EBITDA discussed above, see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Cash Flow Summary” section in this MD&A.
Greenfire’s adjusted free cash flow deficit was $16.6 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to adjusted free cash flow of $39.8 million during the same period in 2024. Adjusted free cash flow was $31.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $80.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in both periods reflects higher capital expenditures together with lower adjusted funds flow.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
In 2025, Greenfire agreed to reimburse WEF for approximately $2.0 million of legal fees associated with the Change of Control Transaction including its adoption of a shareholder rights plan and related hearings before the Alberta Securities Commission, in which WEF was successful. The reimbursement was reviewed and approved by the independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors.

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES
Certain financial measures in this MD&A are non-GAAP financial measures or ratios. These measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. This MD&A also contains supplementary financial measures and ratios. Supplementary financial measures are derived from IFRS Accounting Standards. Non-GAAP and supplementary financial measures are not intended to represent or replace measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
Non-GAAP financial measures and ratios include: adjusted EBITDA, operating netback, operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts, adjusted funds flow, adjusted free cash flow (deficit), effective royalty rate, available funding, net surplus (debt) and per barrel figures associated with non-GAAP financial measures.
Supplementary financial measures and ratios include: gross profit (loss), capital expenditures and depletion.
While these measures are commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, the Company’s determination of these measures may not be comparable with calculations of similar measures presented by other reporting issuers. We believe that the inclusion of these specified financial measures provides useful information to financial statement users when evaluating the financial results of Greenfire.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures & Ratios
Adjusted EBITDA (including per barrel ($/bbl))
Adjusted EBITDA is used to measure Greenfire’s profitability from its underlying asset base on a continuing basis. When adjusted EBITDA is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a non-GAAP ratio.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) before interest and financing, income taxes, depletion, depreciation and amortization, transaction costs, refinancing costs and is adjusted for certain non-cash items, or other items that are considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations. Adjusted EBITDA ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by the Company’s total bitumen sales volume in a specified period.
Net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted EBITDA. For a reconciliation of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA, see the “Financial Results – Net Income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA” section in this MD&A.
Operating Netback (including per barrel ($/bbl)) and Operating Netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts (including per barrel ($/bbl))
Operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts are financial measures widely used in the oil and gas industry as measures of a company’s efficiency and ability to generate cash flow for debt repayments, capital expenditures or other uses. When Operating netback is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a non-GAAP ratio.
Operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts is comprised of gross profit (loss), plus loss on risk management contracts, less gain on risk management contracts and plus depletion expense on the Company’s operating assets. Operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts per barrel ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts by the Company’s bitumen sales volume in a specified period. Operating netback is further adjusted for realized gain (loss) risk management contracts, as appropriate. Operating netback per barrel ($/bbl) is calculated by dividing operating netback by the Company’s bitumen sales volume in a specified period.
Gross profit (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized (gain) loss on risk management contracts. See the “Financial Results – Operating Netback” section in this MD&A for a reconciliation of gross profit (loss) to operating netback and operating netback, excluding realized gain (loss) on risk management contracts.
Adjusted Funds Flow
Management uses the adjusted funds flow measure to evaluate the Company’s ability to fund its capital programs and meet its ongoing financial obligations using cash flow internally generated from ongoing operating related activities.
Adjusted funds flow is computed as cash provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of changes in non-cash working capital, less transaction costs and transactions considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations.
| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 17 |

Cash provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted funds flow, which is a non-GAAP measure. For a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to adjusted funds flow, see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Adjusted Funds Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (Deficit)” section in this MD&A.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow (Deficit)
Management uses adjusted free cash flow (deficit) as an indicator of the efficiency and liquidity of its business, measuring its funds after capital investment that are available to manage debt levels and return capital to shareholders.
Adjusted free cash flow (deficit) is computed as cash provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of changes in non-cash working capital, less transaction costs, transactions considered non-recurring in nature or outside of normal business operations, property, plant and equipment expenditures and acquisitions.
Cash provided by operating activities is the most directly comparable GAAP measure for adjusted free cash flow (deficit), which is a non-GAAP measure. For a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow (deficit), see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Adjusted Funds Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (Deficit)” section in this MD&A.
Effective Royalty Rate
Management uses effective royalty rate, a non-GAAP ratio, to compare between pre and post-payout crown royalties by calculating a royalty rate on a consistent basis.
Royalties consist of crown royalties on bitumen production paid to the Province of Alberta, based on government prescribed royalty rates. The pre-payout royalty rates are calculated using the Canadian dollar equivalent one-month trailing WTI benchmark price. Post-payout royalty rates are calculated using the estimated annual average Canadian dollar equivalent WTI benchmark price. These rates are applied to gross revenue (pre-payout) or the greater of gross or net revenue (post-payout). “Payout” is reached when net revenue is greater than costs for the cumulative project. Pre-payout, the gross revenue royalty—bitumen realization net of transportation and storage costs—starts at 1%, rising with the Canadian dollar WTI price to a maximum of 9%. Post-payout, the royalty is applied to the higher of the gross revenue royalty or the net revenue royalty (net of operating and capital costs).
The actual royalty rate applied will differ from the effective royalty rate. The effective royalty rate is calculated as royalty expense divided by oil sales after diluent and oil transportation expenses.

Net Surplus (Debt)
Management uses net surplus (debt) to monitor and evaluate the Company’s financial strength, and financing requirements.
Net surplus (debt) is computed as the face value of Greenfire’s long-term debt adjusted for accounts payable and accrued liabilities, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, and prepaid expenses and deposits.
Long-term debt is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to net surplus (debt). For a reconciliation of long-term debt to net surplus (debt), see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Net Surplus (Debt)” section in this MD&A.
Available Funding
Management uses available funding to assess liquidity, financial flexibility and the Company’s ability to fund capital expenditures, and other obligations as they come due.
Available funding is calculated as working capital surplus (deficit), adjusted to exclude the current portion of risk management contracts, lease liabilities and other, current portion of decommissioning obligations, warrant liabilities, and the current portion of long-term debt, and including the undrawn capacity available under the Company’s Senior Credit Facility.
| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 18 |

Net working capital surplus (deficit) is the GAAP measure that is the most directly comparable measure to available funding. For a reconciliation of net working capital surplus (deficit) to available funding, see the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Available Funding” section in this MD&A.
Supplementary Financial Measures & Ratios
Gross Profit (Loss)
Gross profit (loss) is a supplementary financial measure prepared on a consistent basis with IFRS Accounting Standards. Greenfire uses gross profit (loss) to assess its core operating performance before considering other expenses such as general and administrative costs, financing costs, and income taxes. Gross profit (loss) is calculated as oil sales, net of royalties, plus gains on risk management contracts, less losses on risk management contracts, diluent expense, operating expense, depletion expense on the Company’s operating assets, transportation expenses and marketing expenses.
Management believes that gross profit (loss) provides investors, analysts, and other stakeholders with useful insight into the Company’s ability to generate profitability from its core operations before non-operating expenses. When gross profit (loss) is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a supplementary financial ratio. See the “Financial Results – Gross Profit (Loss)” section in this MD&A for a reconciliation of gross profit (loss).
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures is a supplementary financial measure prepared on a consistent basis with IFRS Accounting Standards. Greenfire uses capital expenditures to monitor the cash flows it invests into property, plant and equipment. Capital expenditures is derived from the statement of cash flows and includes property, plant and equipment expenditures and acquisitions.
Management believes that capital expenditures provides investors, analysts and other stakeholders with a useful insight into the Company’s investments into property, plant and equipment. See the “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Capital Expenditures” section in this MD&A for a reconciliation of capital expenditures.
Depletion
The term “depletion” or “depletion expense” is the portion of depletion and depreciation expense reflecting the cost of development and extraction of its bitumen reserves. The term “Depreciation expense” is the portion of depletion and depreciation expense for assets not directly associated with the development and extraction of the Company’s bitumen reserves. When depletion expense is expressed on a per barrel basis it is a supplementary financial ratio.
Management uses these metrics to analyze those costs directly associated with capital cost of different property, plant and equipment types. A quantitative reconciliation of depletion expense and depreciation expense to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, Depletion and depreciation expense, is contained under the heading “Financial Results – Depletion and Depreciation Expenses” of this MD&A.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The Company enters into commitments and contractual obligations in the normal course of operations. The following table is a summary of management’s estimate of the contractual maturities of obligations as at December 31, 2025:
| ($ thousands) | 1 Year | 2-3 Years | 4-5 Years | Thereafter | Total | |||||||||||||||
| Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | 88,432 | - | - | - | 88,432 | |||||||||||||||

| (2) | Amounts include $3.9 million under lease agreements to which the Company is committed but that have not yet commenced. |
Management believes its current capital resources, combined with its ability to manage cash flow and working capital requirements, will enable the Company to meet its current and future obligations, and fund other business needs. In the short term, the Company anticipates meeting its cash requirements through a combination of cash on hand, operating cash flows, and accessing its available credit facilities.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Greenfire does not maintain off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or others that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and which are not disclosed in the financial statements.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Certain accounting policies require that management make appropriate decisions with respect to the formulation of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management reviews its estimates on a regular basis. The emergence of new information and changed circumstances may result in actual results or changes to estimates that differ materially from current estimates. The Company’s use of estimates and judgements in preparing the annual financial statements is discussed in Note 2 of the annual financial statements.
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Disclosure Controls and Procedures (“DC&P”)
The Company’s President and Vice President, Finance (“VP Finance”) have established and maintained DC&P and evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of these controls to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) material information relating to the Company is made known to the Company’s President and VP Finance by others, particularly during the period in which the annual and interim filings are being prepared; and (ii) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in securities legislation. Based on that evaluation the President and the VP Finance have concluded and certified the Company’s DC&P are effective as of December 31, 2025.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”)
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company’s financial reporting. Internal control over the Company’s financial reporting is a process designed by, or designed under the supervision of, the Company’s President and VP Finance, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of annual financial statements and interim financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
The Company’s President and VP Finance have assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s ICFR as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and as defined in Canada by National Instrument 52-109, Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings. This assessment was based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The President and VP Finance have concluded and certified that the Company’s ICFR was effective as of December 31, 2025.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period ended December 31, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well conceived, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met, and it should not be expected that the disclosure and internal controls and procedures will prevent all errors or fraud.

The purpose of the capital expenditure and production guidance is to assist readers in understanding the Company’s expected and targeted financial position and performance, and this information may not be appropriate for other purposes.
Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company’s management, as well as on assumptions, which management believes to be reasonable based on information available at the time such statements were made. In addition to other assumptions set out herein, the forward-looking statements contained herein are based on the following assumptions: Greenfire’s ability to compete with other companies; the anticipated future financial or operating performance of the Company; the expected results of operations; expectations that current trends and impacts may continue; assumptions as to future drilling results; assumptions as to costs and commodity prices; the timing and amount of funding required to execute the Company’s business plans; assumptions about future capital expenditures; the effect on the Company of any changes to existing or new legislation or policy or government regulation; the length of time required to obtain permits, certifications and approvals; the availability of labor; estimated budgets; assumptions about future interest and currency exchange rates; assumptions underlying Greenfire’s available corporate tax pools and applicable royalty rates; requirements for additional capital; the timing and possible outcome of regulatory and permitting matters; Greenfire’s ability to obtain all applicable regulatory approvals in connection with the operation of its business; goals; strategies; future growth and the adequacy of financial resources. However, by their nature, forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
| Greenfire Resources Ltd. | 2025 Q4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis | 21 |

Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: a decline in oil prices or widening of differentials between various crude oil prices; lower than expected reservoir performance, including, but not limited to: lower oil production rates; the inability to recognize continued or increased efficiencies from the Company’s production enhancement program and processing plant enhancements; reduced access to or an increase in the cost of diluent; an increase in the cost of natural gas or electricity; the reliability and maintenance of Greenfire’s facilities; equipment failures that result in a failure to achieve expected benefits of capital expenditure programs or result in reduced production or increased costs; supply chain disruption and risks of increased costs relating to inflation; the uncertainty of reserve estimates and estimates and projects relating to production, costs and expenses; uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the safety and reliability of pipelines and trucking services that transport Greenfire’s products; the need to drill additional wells; the cost to transport bitumen, diluent and bitumen blend, and the cost to dispose of certain by-products; the availability and cost of insurance and the inability to insure against certain types of losses; severe weather or catastrophic events such as fires, droughts, lightning, earthquakes, extreme cold weather, storms or explosions; seasonal weather patterns and the corresponding effects of the spring thaw on Greenfire’s properties; operational and financial risks associated with wildfires in Alberta; the availability of pipeline capacity and other transportation and storage facilities for the Company’s bitumen blend; the cost of chemicals used in Greenfire’s operations, including, but not limited to, in connection with water and/or oil treatment facilities; the availability of and access to drilling equipment and key personnel; risks of cybersecurity threats including the possibility of potential breakdown, invasion, virus, cyber-attack, cyber-fraud, security breach, and destruction or interruption of the Company’s information technology systems; Canadian heavy and light oil export capacity constraints and the resulting impact on realized pricing; the impact of global wars and conflicts on global stability including the impacts of the Russia-Ukraine war and the conflicts in the Middle East, commodity prices and the world economy, changes in the political landscape and/or legal, tax, royalty and regulatory regimes in Canada, and elsewhere; changes in applicable tariff rates; the cost of compliance with applicable regulatory regimes, including, but not limited to, environmental regulation and Government of Alberta production curtailments, if any; the ability to attract or access capital as a result of changing investor priorities and trends, including as a result of climate change, environmental, social and governance initiatives, the adoption of decarbonization policies and the general negative sentiment towards the oil and gas industry; hedging risks; variations in foreign exchange and interest rates; failure to accurately estimate abandonment and reclamation costs; the potential for management estimates and assumptions to be inaccurate; risks associated with acquisitions; and general economic, market and business conditions in Canada, the United States and globally.
The lists of risk factors set out in this MD&A or in the Company’s other public disclosure documents are not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any forward-looking statements of the Company. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the matters set out in this MD&A generally and certain economic and business factors, some of which may be beyond the control of the Company. In addition, the global financial and credit markets have experienced significant debt and equity market and commodity price volatility which could have a particularly significant, detrimental and unpredictable effect on forward-looking statements. The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements, other than as required by applicable law. For all of these reasons, the Company’s securityholders should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
You should carefully consider all of the risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's 2025 AIF, which is also filed with the SEC under cover of Form 40-F, is available online at www.sedarplus.ca, www.sec.gov and on our website at www.greenfireres.com.
INITIAL PRODUCTION RATES
References in this MD&A to initial production rates, other short-term production rates or initial performance measures relating to new wells are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons; however, such rates are not determinative of the rates at which such wells will commence production and decline thereafter and are not indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. While encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for the Company. Accordingly, the Company cautions that short-term initial results should be considered to be preliminary.
