Parex Resources Announces Second Quarter Results, Declaration of Q3 2025 Dividend, and Operational Update

CALGARY, Alberta, July 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parex Resources Inc. ("Parex" or the "Company") (TSX:PXT) is pleased to announce its financial and operating results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025, the declaration of its Q3 2025 regular dividend of C$0.385 per share, as well as an operational update. All amounts herein are in United States Dollars ("USD") unless otherwise stated.

"Our resilient business model, reinforced by favourable crude differentials and a continued focus on operational efficiency, drove strong financial results in the second quarter," commented Imad Mohsen, President & Chief Executive Officer.

"As we enter the second half of the year, strong near-field exploration results in the Southern Llanos, combined with the ramp-up in development drilling, are expected to drive a steady step-up in production through year-end."

Key Highlights

Generated Q2 2025 funds flow provided by operations ("FFO")(1) of $105 million and FFO per share(2)(3) of $1.08.

Progressing to deliver FY 2025 average production guidance of 43,000 to 47,000 boe/d and capital expenditure guidance of $285 to $315 million; July 2025 average production was 44,450 boe/d(4).

Delivered three successful near-field exploration wells in H1 2025, which combined represent roughly 2,500 bbl/d(5) of current production.

Declared Q3 2025 regular dividend of C$0.385 per share(6) or C$1.54 per share annualized.

Published 11th annual sustainability report, which integrates the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures ("TCFD") for the fourth year.

Produced an operating netback(2) of $36.25/boe and an FFO netback(2) of $26.90/boe from an average Brent price of $66.71/bbl; strong netbacks were supported by favourable oil price differentials and lower production expense, slightly offset by higher current tax.
