DEFINITIONS
Unless the context otherwise requires or otherwise expressly stated, all references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “Ovintiv,” the “Company,” “us,” “we,” “our,” and “ours” refer to Ovintiv Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. In addition, the following are other abbreviations and definitions of certain terms used within this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q:
“AECO” means Alberta Energy Company and is the Canadian benchmark price for natural gas.
“ASU” means Accounting Standards Update.
“bbl” or “bbls” means barrel or barrels.
“BOE” means barrels of oil equivalent.
“Btu” means British thermal units, a measure of heating value.
“CORRA” means Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average.
“DD&A” means depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses.
“FASB” means Financial Accounting Standards Board.
“GHG” means greenhouse gas.
“Mbbls/d” means thousand barrels per day.
“MBOE/d” means thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day.
“Mcf” means thousand cubic feet.
“MD&A” means Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
“MMBOE” means million barrels of oil equivalent.
“MMBtu” means million Btu.
“MMcf/d” means million cubic feet per day.
“NCIB” means normal course issuer bid.
“NGL” or “NGLs” means natural gas liquids.

CONVERSIONS
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, a conversion of natural gas volumes to BOE is on the basis of six Mcf to one bbl. BOE is based on a generic energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent economic value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value, particularly if used in isolation.
CONVENTIONS
Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars, all references to “dollars”, “$” or “US$” are to U.S. dollars and all references to “C$” are to Canadian dollars. All amounts are provided on a before tax basis, unless otherwise stated. In addition, all information provided herein is presented on an after royalties basis.
3
The terms “include”, “includes”, “including” and “included” are to be construed as if they were immediately followed by the words “without limitation”, except where explicitly stated otherwise.
The term “liquids” is used to represent oil, NGLs and condensate. The term “liquids-rich” is used to represent natural gas streams with associated liquids volumes. The term “play” is used to describe an area in which hydrocarbon accumulations or prospects of a given type occur. Ovintiv’s focus of development is on hydrocarbon accumulations known to exist over a large areal expanse and/or thick vertical section and are developed using hydraulic fracturing. This type of development typically has a lower geological and/or commercial development risk and lower average decline rate, when compared to conventional development.
References to information contained on the Company’s website at www.ovintiv.com are not incorporated by reference into, and does not constitute a part of, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the other documents incorporated herein by reference (if any), contain certain forward-looking statements or information (collectively, “forward-looking statements”) within the meaning of applicable securities legislation, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, except for statements of historical fact, that relate to the anticipated future activities, plans, strategies, objectives or expectations of the Company are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q, and the other documents incorporated herein by reference (if any), the use of words and phrases including “anticipates,” “believes,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “focused on,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “intends,” “maintain,” “may,” “on track,” “opportunities,” “outlook,” “plans,” “potential,” “strategy,” “targets,” “will,” “would” and other similar terminology is intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words or phrases. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q include: expectations of plans, strategies and objectives of the Company, including anticipated reserves development; the Company’s ability to consummate any future acquisition and divestiture transactions; the Company’s ability to successfully integrate any acquired assets into its business; drilling plans and programs, including the amount and availability of capital to complete these plans and programs; the composition of the Company’s assets and the anticipated capital returns associated with its assets; anticipated oil, NGL and natural gas prices; the anticipated success of, and benefits from, technology and innovation, including the cube development model, Trimulfrac and Simulfrac techniques and other new or advanced drilling techniques or well completion designs; anticipated drilling and completions activity, including the number of drilling rigs and frac crews utilized; anticipated proceeds and future benefits from various joint venture, partnership and other agreements; anticipated or desired benefits from acquisitions; anticipated oil, NGLs and natural gas production and commodity mix; the Company’s ability to access credit facilities, debt and equity capital markets and other sources of liquidity; the ability of the Company to timely achieve its stated environmental, social and governance goals, targets and initiatives; the impact of changes in federal, state, provincial, local and tribal laws, rules and regulations, including the impact of changes in trade policies and tariffs; anticipated compliance with current or proposed environmental legislation; the Company’s ability to manage debt and financial ratios and comply with financial covenants; the implementation and outcomes of risk management programs, including exposure to commodity prices, interest rate and foreign exchange fluctuations and the volume of oil, NGLs and natural gas production hedged; the declaration and payment of future dividends and the anticipated repurchase of the Company’s outstanding common shares; the Company’s ability to manage cost inflation and expected cost structures, including expected operating, transportation, processing and labor expenses; and the outlook of the oil and natural gas industry generally, including impacts from changes to the geopolitical environment.
The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We have based these forward-looking statements on current expectations and assumptions about future events, taking into account all information currently known by us. While we consider these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and beyond our control. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance and results of our business and forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those set forth in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K”); and other risks and uncertainties impacting the Company’s business as described from time to time in the Company’s other periodic filings with the SEC or Canadian securities regulators.
4
Although the Company believes the expectations represented by its forward-looking statements are reasonable based on the information available to it as of the date such statements are made, forward-looking statements are only predictions and statements of our current beliefs and there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. All forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q are made as of the date of this document (or in the case of a document incorporated herein by reference, the date of such document) and, except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q, and all subsequent forward-looking statements attributable to the Company, whether written or oral, are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.
The reader should carefully read the risk factors described in Item 1A. Risk Factors of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10‑K for a description of certain risks that could, among other things, cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
Ovintiv is in the business of the exploration for, the development of, and the production and marketing of oil, NGLs and natural gas.
The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Ovintiv and entities in which it holds a controlling interest. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation. Undivided interests in oil and natural gas exploration and production joint ventures and partnerships are consolidated on a proportionate basis. Investments in non-controlled entities over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the equity method.
The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and disclosures normally required under U.S. GAAP have been condensed or have been disclosed on an annual basis only. Accordingly, the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024, which are included in Item 8 of Ovintiv’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10‑K.
The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared following the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
These unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, in the opinion of Management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of the Company as at and for the periods presented. Interim condensed consolidated financial results are not necessarily indicative of consolidated financial results expected for the fiscal year.
2.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Changes in Accounting Policies and Practices
On January 1, 2025, Ovintiv adopted ASU 2023-09 “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” for annual disclosures. The standard requires disaggregated information about the Company’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The amendment requires the tabular rate reconciliation to be presented using both percentages and amounts, with additional separate disclosure for any reconciling items within certain categories equal to or greater than five percent of net earnings or loss before income tax and the applicable statutory federal income tax rate. The amendment also requires the disaggregation of income taxes paid by federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions, as well as additional disaggregated information on income taxes paid to an individual jurisdiction equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid. Amendments will be applied prospectively and will not have a material impact on the Company’s annual Consolidated Financial Statements.
New Standards Issued Not Yet Adopted
As of January 1, 2027, Ovintiv will be required to adopt ASU 2024-03 “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” for annual disclosures with interim disclosures required beginning in the first quarter of 2028. The new standard requires that an entity disclose tabular information about certain expenses including, but not limited to, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense that are presented within expense line captions reported on the statement of earnings. A qualitative description of the remaining other amounts within those expense line captions will be required. The Company will also be required to determine and disclose its definition of selling expenses and the total amount of selling expenses. The amendments are to be applied prospectively, with the option for retrospective application, and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
3.
Segmented Information
Ovintiv’s exploration and production activities are subdivided into two geographic segments, including the USA Operations and Canadian Operations. These segments’ activities also include third-party purchases and sales of product to provide operational flexibility and cost mitigation for transportation commitments, product type, delivery points and customer diversification. The Company considers sales of purchased commodities as ancillary to its oil and gas development, exploration and producing activities and manages them to support such activities. In addition, the Company has a single, company-wide management team that allocates capital resources to maximize profitability and measures financial performance as a single enterprise.
Corporate and Other mainly includes unrealized gains or losses recorded on derivative financial instruments. Once the instruments are settled, the realized gains and losses are recorded in the reporting segment to which the derivative instruments relate. Corporate and Other also includes amounts related to sublease rentals and administrative costs not allocated to the operating segments.
In 2024, Ovintiv reassessed its reportable segments and determined the Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODMs”) no longer separately reviewed the Market Optimization operational results and activities. Accordingly, Ovintiv’s Market Optimization segment was reclassified to present the Company’s market optimization activities in their respective USA and Canadian operating segments, which they support. The Market Optimization revenues, which were previously included in Product and service revenues, are presented as Sales of purchased product in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings. In conjunction with this segment reclassification, intercompany marketing fees formerly transacted between operating segments are excluded from Product and service revenues, and Sales of purchased product. Prior periods have been reclassified for comparative purposes. Additionally, intersegment eliminations are no longer required in this Segmented Information note as marketing activities are reflected in the corresponding operating segment they relate to.
The tables below summarize the results of operations and total assets by segment that are provided to the CODMs which have been identified as the Company’s President & Chief Executive Officer, Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer, and the Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer. The CODMs evaluate the performance of each of the reportable segments based on Operating Income (Loss) which is also used to assess performance and allocate capital for these segments.
The Company evaluates the effects of debt financing, interest expense and/or interest income, foreign exchange gains (losses) and other gains (losses) at a consolidated level.

The Company’s revenues from contracts with customers consists of product sales including oil, NGLs and natural gas, sales of purchased product, as well as the provision of gathering and processing services to third parties. Ovintiv had no contract asset or liability balances during the periods presented. As at June 30, 2025, receivables and accrued revenues from contracts with customers were $819 million ($921 million as at December 31, 2024).
Ovintiv’s product sales are sold under short-term contracts with terms that are less than one year at either fixed or market index prices or under long-term contracts exceeding one year at market index prices.
The Company’s gathering and processing services are provided on an interruptible basis with transaction prices that are for fixed prices and/or variable consideration. Variable consideration received is related to recovery of plant operating costs or escalation of the fixed price based on a consumer price index. As the service contracts are interruptible, with service provided on an “as available” basis, there are no unsatisfied performance obligations remaining at June 30, 2025.
As at June 30, 2025, all remaining performance obligations are priced at market index prices or are variable volume delivery contracts. As such, the variable consideration is allocated entirely to the wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or promise to deliver units of production, and revenue is recognized at the amount for which the Company has the right to invoice the product delivered. As the period between when the product sales are transferred and Ovintiv receives payments is generally 30 to 60 days, there is no financing element associated with customer contracts. In addition, Ovintiv does not disclose unsatisfied performance obligations for customer contracts with terms less than 12 months or for variable consideration related to unsatisfied performance obligations.

Ovintiv’s interim income tax expense is determined using the estimated annual effective income tax rate applied to year-to-date net earnings before income tax plus the effect of legislative changes and amounts in respect of prior periods. The estimated annual effective income tax rate is impacted by expected annual earnings, changes in valuation allowances, income tax related to foreign operations, state taxes, the effect of legislative changes, non-taxable items and tax differences on transactions, which can produce interim effective tax rate fluctuations.
The effective tax rate of 23.1 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2025, is higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21 percent primarily due to state tax.
The effective tax rate of 28.2 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2025, is higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21 percent primarily due to the resolution of prior period tax items.

On January 31, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of approximately 109,000 net acres in the core of the Montney formation from Paramount Resources Ltd. for total cash consideration of approximately $2.308 billion (C$3.328 billion), after preliminary closing adjustments (the “Montney Acquisition”). The Company funded the Montney Acquisition with cash on hand, including proceeds from the Uinta Basin divestiture as discussed below, and proceeds from short-term borrowings. The Montney Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired were concentrated in a single asset group, largely comprising proved oil and natural gas properties. The Company recognized the assets acquired in the Montney Acquisition at the purchase cost, including transaction costs, on a relative fair value basis. The Company recorded $2,292 million in proved properties, $162 million in unproved properties, $146 million related to asset retirement obligations, and $396 million in operating lease assets and lease liabilities related to a long-term midstream agreement for a natural gas processing facility.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, acquisitions in the USA Operations were $5 million and $195 million, respectively, which primarily included property purchases in Permian with oil and liquids-rich potential.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, divestitures in the USA Operations were $12 million and $1,896 million, respectively, which primarily included the sale of the Uinta Basin assets located in Utah for proceeds of approximately $1,882 million, after preliminary closing and other adjustments.
Amounts received from the Company’s divestiture transactions have been deducted from the U.S. full cost pool.

USA and Canadian Operations’ property, plant and equipment include internal costs directly related to exploration, development and construction activities of $76 million, which have been capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2025 (2024 - $99 million).
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not recognize ceiling test impairments in the USA and Canadian Operations (2024 - nil). For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized a before-tax non-cash ceiling test impairment in the Canadian Operations of $730 million (2024 - nil). The non-cash impairment is included with accumulated DD&A in the table above and primarily resulted from the 12-month average trailing prices used in the ceiling test at March 31, 2025, which were lower than the market prices used for the Montney Acquisition on January 31, 2025.
The 12-month average trailing prices used in the ceiling test calculations were based on the benchmark prices presented below. The benchmark prices were adjusted for basis differentials to determine local reference prices, transportation costs and tariffs, heat content and quality.

Variable Interest Entities
Veresen Midstream Limited Partnership
Veresen Midstream Limited Partnership (“VMLP”) provides gathering, compression and processing services under various agreements related to the Company’s development of liquids and natural gas production in the Montney play. As at June 30, 2025, VMLP provides approximately 1,152 MMcf/d of natural gas gathering and compression and 913 MMcf/d of natural gas processing under long-term service agreements with remaining terms ranging from six to 20 years and have various renewal terms providing up to a potential maximum of 10 years.
Ovintiv has determined that VMLP is a variable interest entity and that Ovintiv holds variable interests in VMLP. Ovintiv is not the primary beneficiary as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact VMLP’s economic performance. These key activities relate to the construction, operation, maintenance and marketing of the assets owned by VMLP. The variable interests arise from certain terms under the various long-term service agreements and include: i) a take or pay for volumes in certain agreements; ii) an operating fee of which a portion can be converted into a fixed fee once VMLP assumes operatorship of certain assets; and iii) a potential payout of minimum costs in certain agreements. The potential payout of minimum costs will be assessed in the eighth year of the assets’ service period and is based on whether there is an overall shortfall of total system cash flows from natural gas gathered and compressed under certain agreements. The potential payout amount can be reduced in the event VMLP markets unutilized capacity to third-party users. Ovintiv is not required to provide any financial support or guarantees to VMLP.
As a result of Ovintiv’s involvement with VMLP, the maximum total exposure to loss related to the commitments under the agreements is estimated to be $892 million as at June 30, 2025. The estimate comprises the take or pay volume commitments and the potential payout of minimum costs. The take or pay volume commitments associated with certain gathering and processing assets are included in Note 21 under Transportation and Processing. The potential payout requirement is highly uncertain as the amount is contingent on future production estimates, pace of development and downstream transportation constraints. As at June 30, 2025, other liabilities and provisions, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, included $21 million and $1 million, respectively, related to the take or pay commitment and payout of minimum costs.
16.
Restructuring Charges
In 2024, Ovintiv undertook a plan to reduce its workforce by approximately 10 percent as part of a corporate reorganization. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred restructuring charges of $1 million and $11 million, respectively, before tax, related to severance costs (2024 - nil, respectively). Of the $38 million in restructuring charges incurred to date, $1 million remains accrued as at June 30, 2025 ($19 million as at December 31, 2024). The remaining amount accrued is expected to be paid in 2026.
Restructuring charges are included in administrative expense presented in the Corporate and Other segment in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings.

Fair Value Measurements
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accrued revenues, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturity of those instruments. The fair values of restricted cash and marketable securities included in other assets approximate their carrying amounts due to the nature of the instruments held.
Recurring fair value measurements are performed for risk management assets and liabilities and other derivative contracts, as discussed further in Note 19. These items are carried at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and are classified within the three levels of the fair value hierarchy in the following tables.
Fair value changes and settlements for amounts related to risk management assets and liabilities are recognized in revenues and foreign exchange gains and losses according to their purpose.

Foreign Currency Derivatives:
The Company’s Level 1 and Level 2 risk management assets and liabilities include contracts with terms to 2028, consisting of commodity fixed price contracts, WTI three-way options, NYMEX three-way options, basis swaps, a physical forward contract receiving a percentage of the Japan Korea Marker (“JKM”) index price and foreign currency swaps. The Company uses discounted cash flow and option-pricing models for fair valuing commodity derivatives. The fair value models use inputs such as contracted notional volumes, market future prices, maturities, credit adjusted risk free rates, and market-based implied volatility factors. The fair values of these contracts are estimated using inputs which are either directly or indirectly observable from active markets, such as exchange and other published prices, broker quotes and observable trading activity throughout the term of the instruments.
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company transferred its WTI three-way options from Level 3 into Level 2 as a result of the availability of more observable inputs, such as volatility and comparable contract terms, from independent active markets.
The three-way options are a combination of a sold call, a bought put and a sold put. These contracts allow the Company to participate in the upside of commodity prices to the ceiling of the call option and provide the Company with partial downside price protection through the put options.
Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, Ovintiv entered into a ten-year physical forward contract, with terms to 2037, to deliver 100 MMcf/d of natural gas volumes with a delivery point in Alberta and will receive the Chicago city-gates (“Chicago”) index price, less deducts. Delivery of natural gas volumes is expected to commence November 1, 2027. This contract is a derivative and is required to be measured at fair value each reporting period with changes in the fair value recorded in net earnings. The fair value of this contract is based on the discounted cash flow model using observable and unobservable inputs such as forward prices less deducts. The data used to develop the unobservable inputs are obtained from third parties whenever possible and reviewed by the Company for reasonableness.

Financial Instruments and Risk Management
A) Financial Instruments
Ovintiv’s financial assets and liabilities are recognized in cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accrued revenues, other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, risk management assets and liabilities, long-term debt, and other liabilities and provisions.
B) Risk Management Activities
Ovintiv uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuating commodity prices and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivative financial instruments. As a result, gains and losses from changes in the fair value are recognized in net earnings (loss).
Commodity Price Risk
Commodity price risk arises from the effect that fluctuations in future commodity prices may have on revenues from production. To partially mitigate exposure to commodity price risk, the Company has entered into various derivative financial instruments. The use of these derivative instruments is governed under formal policies and is subject to limits established by the Board of Directors.
Oil and NGLs - To partially mitigate oil and NGL commodity price risk, the Company uses WTI- and NGL-based contracts such as fixed price contracts and options.
Natural Gas - To partially mitigate natural gas commodity price risk, the Company uses NYMEX- and AECO- based contracts such as fixed price contracts and options. Ovintiv has also entered into forward contracts to partially manage against widening price differentials between various production areas and benchmark price points.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign exchange risk arises from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that may affect the fair value or future cash flows from the Company’s financial assets or liabilities. To partially mitigate the effect of foreign exchange fluctuations on future commodity revenues and expenses, the Company may enter into foreign currency derivative contracts from time to time. As at June 30, 2025, the Company does not have any notional U.S. dollar denominated currency swaps.

C) Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the potential that the Company may incur a loss if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its obligation in accordance with agreed terms. While exchange-traded contracts are subject to nominal credit risk due to the financial safeguards established by the exchanges and clearing agencies, over-the-counter traded contracts expose Ovintiv to counterparty credit risk. Counterparties to the Company’s derivative financial instruments consist primarily of major financial institutions and companies within the energy industry. This credit risk exposure is mitigated through the use of credit policies approved by the Board of Directors governing the Company’s credit portfolio including credit practices that limit transactions according to counterparties’ credit quality. Mitigation strategies may include master netting arrangements, requesting collateral, purchasing credit insurance and/or transacting credit derivatives. The Company executes commodity derivative financial instruments under master agreements that have netting provisions that provide for offsetting payables against receivables. Ovintiv actively evaluates the creditworthiness of its counterparties, assigns appropriate credit limits and monitors credit exposures against those assigned limits. As at June 30, 2025, Ovintiv’s maximum exposure of loss due to credit risk from derivative financial instrument assets on a gross and net fair value basis was $110 million and $100 million, respectively, as disclosed in Note 18. The Company had no significant credit derivatives in place and held no collateral at June 30, 2025.
Any cash equivalents include high-grade, short-term securities, placed primarily with financial institutions with investment grade ratings. Any foreign currency agreements entered into are with major financial institutions that have investment grade credit ratings.
A substantial portion of the Company’s accounts receivable are with customers and working interest owners in the oil and gas industry and are subject to normal industry credit risks. As at June 30, 2025, approximately 94 percent (94 percent as at December 31, 2024) of Ovintiv’s accounts receivable and financial derivative credit exposures were with investment grade counterparties.

Contingencies
Ovintiv is involved in various legal claims and actions arising in the normal course of the Company’s operations. Although the outcome of these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect these matters to have a material adverse effect on Ovintiv’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations. Management’s assessment of these matters may change in the future as these matters are subject to a number of uncertainties. For any material matters that the Company believes an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible, the Company discloses the nature and a range of potential exposures, if reasonably estimable. If an unfavorable outcome were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material impact on the Company’s consolidated net earnings or loss for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable. The Company accrues for such items when a liability is both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on the Company’s information known about the matters, estimates of the outcomes of such matters and experience in handling similar matters.

For additional information on Ovintiv’s strategy, its reporting segments and the plays in which the Company operates, refer to Items 1 and 2 of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In evaluating its operations and assessing its leverage, Ovintiv reviews performance-based measures such as Non‑GAAP Cash Flow and debt-based metrics such as Debt to Adjusted Capitalization, Debt to EBITDA and Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures and do not have any standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP. These measures may not be similar to measures presented by other issuers and should not be viewed as a substitute for measures reported under U.S. GAAP. Additional information regarding these measures, including reconciliations to the closest GAAP measure, can be found in the Non-GAAP Measures section of this MD&A.
Highlights
During the first six months of 2025, the Company focused on executing its 2025 capital investment plan aimed at maximizing profitability through operational and capital efficiencies, and delivering cash from operating activities. In conjunction with closing the Montney Acquisition, as discussed below, the Company was also focused on integrating the new assets into its existing operations.
Lower upstream product revenues in the first six months of 2025 compared to 2024, primarily resulted from lower oil production volumes and lower realized oil and plant condensate prices, excluding the impact of risk management activities, partially offset by higher average realized natural gas prices, excluding the impact of risk management activities, and higher plant condensate production volumes. Oil production volumes decreased primarily as a result of the sale of the Company’s Uinta assets in the first quarter of 2025. Average realized oil and plant condensate prices decreased 12 percent and 10 percent, respectively, primarily due to lower benchmark prices. Higher realized average natural gas prices of 49 percent were primarily due to higher benchmark prices and exposure to other downstream benchmark prices. Plant condensate production volumes increased due to the Montney Acquisition in the first quarter of 2025. Ovintiv continues to focus on optimizing realized prices from the diversification of the Company’s downstream markets.

2025 Outlook
Industry Outlook
Oil and Natural Gas Markets
The oil and gas industry is cyclical and commodity prices are inherently volatile. Oil prices reflect global supply and demand dynamics as well as the geopolitical and macroeconomic environment.
Oil prices for the remainder of 2025 are expected to be impacted by the interplay between the pace of global economic growth and demand for oil, OPEC+ and non-OPEC+ production levels, and continued price volatility resulting from geopolitical events and macroeconomic uncertainties. Supply and the accumulation of global oil inventories are expected to be impacted by changes in geopolitical volatility, OPEC+ and non-OPEC+ production levels, and consumer demand behavior.
Natural gas prices are primarily impacted by structural changes in supply and demand, deviations from seasonally normal weather, as well as volatility in regional markets.
Natural gas prices for the remainder of 2025 are expected to be impacted by the interplay between natural gas production and associated natural gas from oil production, changes in demand from the power generation sector, changes in export levels of U.S. and Canadian liquefied natural gas, impacts from seasonal weather, as well as supply chain constraints or other disruptions resulting from geopolitical events.
Political developments, including trade disputes and policy changes, continue to elevate global uncertainty and financial market volatility. U.S. sanctions and tariffs on select products may disrupt global supply and demand, leading to commodity price volatility. These actions can provoke retaliatory measures from other countries, further increasing economic volatility and the risk of a global recession.
Company Outlook
The Company will continue to exercise discretion and discipline, and intends to optimize capital allocation through the remainder of 2025 as the commodity price environment evolves. Ovintiv pursues innovative ways to maximize cash flows and reduce operating and administrative expenses.
Markets for oil and natural gas are exposed to different price risks and are inherently volatile. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to mitigate price volatility and provide more certainty around cash flows. As at June 30, 2025, the Company has hedged approximately 50.0 Mbbls/d of expected oil and condensate production and 500 MMcf/d of expected natural gas production for the remainder of the year. In addition, Ovintiv proactively utilizes commodity derivatives and transportation contracts to diversify the Company’s sales markets, thereby reducing significant exposure to any given market and regional pricing.
Additional information on Ovintiv’s hedging program can be found in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The Company continues to execute its 2025 capital investment program, focusing on maximizing returns from high-margin oil and condensate, and generating cash flows in excess of capital expenditures.
During the second quarter of 2025, the Company invested $521 million, which was lower than its second quarter guidance of $550 million to $600 million, primarily due to timing of projects. In July 2025, the Company reduced its full year 2025 capital investment guidance range to $2,125 million to $2,175 million.
Ovintiv continually strives to improve well performance and lower costs through innovative techniques. Ovintiv’s large-scale cube development model utilizes multi-well pads and advanced completion designs to maximize returns and resource recovery from its reservoirs. Ovintiv’s disciplined capital program and continuous innovation create flexibility to allocate capital in changing commodity markets to maximize cash flows while preserving the long-term value of the Company’s multi-basin portfolio.
During the second quarter of 2025, total average production volumes were 615.3 MBOE/d, which exceeded the second quarter guidance range of 585.0 MBOE/d to 605.0 MBOE/d. Average oil and plant condensate production volumes were 211.2 Mbbls/d, average other NGL production volumes were 95.5 Mbbls/d and average natural gas production volumes were 1,851 MMcf/d, which exceeded second quarter guidance ranges of 202.0 Mbbls/d to 208.0 Mbbls/d, 87.0 Mbbls/d to 92.0 Mbbls/d and 1,775 MMcf/d to 1,825 MMcf/d, respectively.
In July 2025, the Company updated its full year 2025 total production guidance ranges to reflect strong well performance and the successful integration of the newly acquired Montney assets. The Company expects to meet its updated full year 2025 production guidance range of 600.0 MBOE/d to 620.0 MBOE/d, including oil and plant condensate production volumes of approximately 205.0 Mbbls/d to 209.0 Mbbls/d, other NGLs production volumes of approximately 93.0 Mbbls/d to 96.0 Mbbls/d and natural gas production volumes of approximately 1,825 MMcf/d to 1,875 MMcf/d.
Ovintiv promotes a collaborative culture that values knowledge exchange, open communication, continuous improvement and learning. This culture stimulates innovation and fosters the creation of best practices resulting in efficiency improvements and enhanced operational performance for the Company.
In July 2025, the Company updated its upstream operating expense guidance range to approximately $3.75 per BOE to $4.00 per BOE for the remainder of the year. The Company is on track to maintain full year upstream transportation and processing costs of approximately $7.50 per BOE to $8.00 per BOE and total production, mineral and other taxes of approximately 3.75 to 4.50 percent of upstream revenues.
Additional information on Ovintiv’s third quarter and full year 2025 Corporate Guidance can be accessed on the Company’s website at www.ovintiv.com.
Environmental, Social and Governance
Ovintiv recognizes the importance of implementing and maintaining sustainable practices to reduce its environmental footprint. The Company voluntarily participates in emission reduction programs and has adopted a range of strategies to help reduce emissions from its operations. These strategies include incorporating new and proven technologies, optimizing processes in its operations and working closely with third-party providers to develop best practices. The Company continues to look for innovative techniques and efficiencies in support of its commitment to emission reductions.
In May 2025, Ovintiv published its 2024 Sustainability Report. The report highlights the Company’s 2024 environmental, social and governance results, and its progress in emissions intensity reductions with the goal to meet its Scope 1&2 GHG emissions target by 2030. As at the end of 2024, the Company had achieved a greater than 45 percent reduction in the Scope 1&2 GHG emissions intensity from 2019 levels and expects to meet its emissions intensity reduction target of 50 percent by 2030 measured against the 2019 baseline. Ovintiv remains committed to its GHG emissions reduction target and has tied the target to the Company’s annual compensation program for all employees. In addition, Ovintiv continues to work towards eliminating routine flaring in its operations.
In conjunction with the Company’s strategy, Ovintiv may acquire assets to strengthen its multi-basin portfolio. Acquisitions are thoroughly assessed and evaluated for environmental impacts and alignment with the Company’s GHG emissions target. Ovintiv continues to work to integrate sustainable practices within the acquired operations to support company-wide sustainability objectives.
The Company’s social commitment framework, which is rooted in the Company’s foundational values of integrity, safety, sustainability, trust and respect, reflects Ovintiv’s positive contributions to the communities where it operates and highlights the Company’s approach to enabling an inclusive culture.
Ovintiv remains committed to protecting the health and safety of its workforce. Safety is a foundational value at Ovintiv and plays a critical role in the Company’s belief that a safe workplace is a strong indicator of a well-managed business. This safety-oriented mindset enables the Company to quickly respond to emergencies and minimize any impacts to employees and business continuity. Safety performance goals are incorporated into the Company’s annual compensation program. Additional information on talent management and employee safety can be found in the Human Capital section of Items 1 and 2 of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Additional information on Ovintiv’s sustainable business practices are included in its most recent Sustainability Report on the Company’s sustainability website at sustainability.ovintiv.com.

Ovintiv’s revenues are substantially derived from sales of oil, NGLs and natural gas production. Increases or decreases in Ovintiv’s revenue, profitability and future production are highly dependent on the commodity prices the Company receives. Prices are market driven and fluctuate due to factors beyond the Company’s control, such as supply and demand, seasonality and geopolitical and economic factors. The Company’s realized prices generally reflect WTI, NYMEX, Edmonton Condensate and AECO benchmark prices, as well as other downstream benchmarks, including Houston and Dawn. The Company proactively mitigates price risk and optimizes margins by entering into firm transportation contracts to diversify market access to different sales points. Realized prices, excluding the impact of risk management activities, may differ from the benchmarks for many reasons, including quality, location, or production being sold at different market hubs.

Ovintiv recognizes fair value changes from its risk management activities each reporting period. The changes in fair value result from new positions and settlements that occur during each period, as well as the relationship between contract prices and the associated forward curves. Realized gains or losses on risk management activities related to commodity price mitigation are included in the USA and Canadian Operations’ revenues as the contracts are cash settled. Unrealized gains or losses on fair value changes of unsettled contracts are included in the Corporate and Other segment.
During the second quarter of 2025, the Company entered into physical forward contracts to further mitigate a portion of its exposure to AECO benchmark prices. The Company’s ongoing market diversification strategy shifts a portion of its commodity price exposure to alternative pricing hubs including Japan Korea Marker and Chicago city-gates, commencing in 2026 and 2027, respectively.

Depreciation, Depletion & Amortization
Proved properties within each country cost center are depleted using the unit-of-production method based on proved reserves as discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Depletion rates are impacted by impairments, acquisitions, divestitures and foreign exchange rates, as well as fluctuations in 12-month average trailing prices which affect proved reserves volumes. Corporate assets are carried at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated service lives of the assets.

The upstream depletion rate in the USA Operations decreased $3.08 per BOE primarily due to a lower depletable base resulting from the sale of the Uinta assets in the first quarter of 2025. The upstream depletion rate in the Canadian Operations increased $3.22 per BOE primarily due to a higher depletable base resulting from the Montney Acquisition in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by the ceiling test impairments recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024 and first quarter of 2025.
DD&A decreased $45 million compared to the first six months of 2024 primarily due to:
The upstream depletion rate in the USA Operations decreased $2.80 per BOE primarily due to a lower depletable base resulting from the sale of the Uinta assets in the first quarter of 2025. The upstream depletion rate in the Canadian Operations increased $3.26 per BOE primarily due to a higher depletable base resulting from the Montney Acquisition in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by the ceiling test impairments recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024 and first quarter of 2025.
Ceiling Test Impairment
Under full cost accounting, the carrying amount of Ovintiv’s oil and natural gas properties within each country cost center is subject to a ceiling test performed quarterly. Ceiling test impairments are recognized when the capitalized costs, net of accumulated depletion and the related deferred income taxes, exceed the sum of the estimated after-tax future net cash flows from proved reserves as calculated under SEC requirements using the 12-month average trailing prices and discounted at 10 percent. The 12‑month average trailing price is calculated as the average of the price on the first day of each month within the trailing 12‑month period.
In the second quarter and first six months of 2025, the Company recognized before-tax non-cash ceiling test impairments of nil and $730 million, respectively, in the Canadian Operations. The non-cash impairment recognized in the first quarter of 2025 primarily resulted from the 12-month average trailing prices used in the ceiling test at March 31, 2025, which were lower than the market prices used for the Montney Acquisition on January 31, 2025.
The 12-month average trailing prices used in the ceiling test calculations were based on the benchmark prices below. The benchmark prices were adjusted for basis differentials to determine local reference prices, transportation costs and tariffs, heat content and quality.

AECO(C$/MMBtu)
Future declines in the 12‑month average trailing commodity prices could reduce proved reserves values and result in the recognition of future ceiling test impairments. Future ceiling test impairments can also result from changes to reserves estimates, future development costs, capitalized costs and unproved property costs. Proceeds received from oil and natural gas divestitures are typically deducted from the Company’s capitalized costs and can reduce the risk of ceiling test impairments.
The Company believes that the discounted after-tax future net cash flows from proved reserves required to be used in the ceiling test calculation are not indicative of the fair market value of Ovintiv’s oil and natural gas properties or the future net cash flows expected to be generated from such properties. The discounted after-tax future net cash flows do not consider the fair market
value of unamortized unproved properties, or probable or possible liquids and natural gas reserves. In addition, there is no consideration given to the effect of future changes in commodity prices. Ovintiv manages its business using estimates of reserves and resources based on forecast prices and costs. Additional information on the ceiling test calculation can be found in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
Administrative expense represents costs associated with corporate functions provided by Ovintiv staff. These expenses primarily include salaries and benefits, operating leases, office, information technology, restructuring and long-term incentive costs.

Additional information on restructuring charges and long-term incentive costs can be found in Notes 16 and 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Other (Gains) Losses, Net
Interest expense primarily includes interest on Ovintiv’s short-term and long-term debt. Additional information on changes in interest and long-term debt can be found in Notes 5 and 11, respectively, to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Interest expense decreased $10 million compared to the second quarter of 2024 primarily due to:
Interest expense decreased $11 million compared to the first six months of 2024 primarily due to:
Foreign exchange gains and losses primarily result from the impact of fluctuations in the Canadian to U.S. dollar exchange rate. Additional information on changes in foreign exchange gains or losses can be found in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Additional information on foreign exchange rates and the effects of foreign exchange rate changes can be found in Part I, Item 3 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Net foreign exchange loss of $22 million compared to a gain of $10 million during the second quarter of 2024 primarily due to:
Net foreign exchange loss of $32 million compared to a gain of $38 million during the first six months of 2024 primarily due to:
Other (gains) losses, net, primarily includes other non-recurring revenues or expenses and may also include items such as interest income, reclamation charges related to decommissioned assets, and adjustments related to other assets.
Other gains in the second quarter and first six months of 2025 includes interest income of $3 million and $8 million, respectively, primarily generated from short-term investments (2024 - $1 million and $3 million, respectively).
Income Tax
During the first six months of 2025, current income tax expense of $69 million was higher than the comparative period in 2024 primarily due to the resolution of prior period items in Canada in 2025.
During the second quarter of 2025, the deferred income tax expense of $66 million was lower than the comparative period in 2024 primarily due to lower earnings in 2025. During the first six months of 2025, the deferred income tax recovery was $11 million compared to an expense of $161 million in 2024 primarily due to the impact of the non-cash ceiling test impairment recognized in Canada in the first quarter of 2025.
The determination of income and other tax liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries requires interpretation of complex domestic and foreign tax laws and regulations, that are subject to change. The Company’s interpretation of tax laws may differ from the interpretation of the tax authorities. As a result, there are tax matters under review for which the timing of resolution is uncertain. The Company believes that the provision for income taxes is adequate.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R.1) was signed into law, introducing reforms to U.S. tax policy, energy infrastructure, and environmental regulation. Ovintiv continues to assess the impact of this legislative change. The Company does not anticipate a significant impact in 2025, however it does anticipate additional tax benefits for 2026 and beyond.
Additional information on income taxes can be found in Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
The Company has the flexibility to access cash equivalents and a range of funding alternatives at competitive rates through committed revolving credit facilities as well as debt and equity capital markets. Ovintiv closely monitors the accessibility of cost-effective credit and ensures that sufficient liquidity is in place to fund capital expenditures and dividend payments. In addition, the Company may use cash and cash equivalents, cash from operating activities, or proceeds from asset divestitures to fund its operations and capital allocation framework or to manage its capital structure as discussed below. As at June 30, 2025, $16 million in cash and cash equivalents was held by Canadian subsidiaries. The cash held by Canadian subsidiaries is accessible and may be subject to additional U.S. income taxes and Canadian withholding taxes if repatriated.
The Company’s capital structure consists of total shareholders’ equity plus long-term debt, including any current portion. The Company’s objectives when managing its capital structure are to maintain financial flexibility to preserve Ovintiv’s access to capital markets and its ability to meet financial obligations and finance internally generated growth, as well as potential acquisitions. Ovintiv has a practice of maintaining capital discipline and strategically managing its capital structure by adjusting capital spending, adjusting dividends paid to shareholders, issuing new shares of common stock, purchasing shares of common stock for cancellation or return to treasury, issuing new debt and repaying or repurchasing existing debt.

The Company has full access to two committed revolving U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities totaling $3.5 billion, which include a $2.2 billion revolving credit facility for Ovintiv Inc. and a $1.3 billion revolving credit facility for a Canadian subsidiary (collectively, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities, which mature in December 2029, provide financial flexibility and allow the Company to fund its operations or capital investment program. As at June 30, 2025, $150 million was outstanding under the revolving Credit Facilities.
Depending on the Company’s credit rating and market demand, the Company may issue from its two U.S. Commercial Paper (“CP”) programs, which include a $1.5 billion program for Ovintiv Inc. and a $1.0 billion program for a Canadian subsidiary. As at June 30, 2025, the Company had $331 million of commercial paper outstanding under its U.S. CP program maturing at various dates with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.03 percent, which is supported by the Company’s Credit Facilities. All of Ovintiv’s credit ratings are investment grade as at June 30, 2025.
The available Credit Facilities, uncommitted demand lines, and cash and cash equivalents, net of outstanding commercial paper, provide Ovintiv with total liquidity of approximately $3.2 billion as at June 30, 2025. As at June 30, 2025, Ovintiv also had approximately $180 million in undrawn letters of credit issued in the normal course of business as collateral security.
Ovintiv has a U.S. shelf registration statement under which the Company may issue from time to time, debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, warrants, units, share purchase contracts and share purchase units in the U.S. The U.S. shelf registration statement expires in March 2026.
The obligations under the Company’s existing debt securities are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Ovintiv Canada ULC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Additional information on the Company’s Canadian Operations segment and the Bow office lease can be found in the Results of Operations section in this MD&A and
in the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the MD&A and audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2024, which are included in Items 7 and 8, respectively, of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Ovintiv is currently in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Facilities. Management monitors Debt to Adjusted Capitalization, which is a non-GAAP measure defined in the Non-GAAP Measures section of this MD&A, as a proxy for Ovintiv’s financial covenant under the Credit Facilities, which requires Debt to Adjusted Capitalization to be less than 60 percent. As at June 30, 2025, the Company’s Debt to Adjusted Capitalization was 23 percent. The definitions used in the covenant under the Credit Facilities adjust capitalization for cumulative historical ceiling test impairments recorded in conjunction with the Company’s January 1, 2012 adoption of U.S. GAAP. Additional information on financial covenants can be found in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10‑K.

Net cash from operating activities in the second quarter and first six months of 2025 was $1,013 million and $1,886 million, respectively, and was primarily a reflection of the impacts from production volumes, average realized commodity prices, realized gains/losses on risk management and changes in non‑cash working capital.
Additional detail on changes in non-cash working capital can be found in Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Ovintiv expects it will continue to meet the payment terms of its suppliers.
Non-GAAP Cash Flow in the second quarter and first six months of 2025 was $913 million and $1,917 million, respectively, and was primarily impacted by the items affecting cash from operating activities which are discussed below and in the Results of Operations section of this MD&A.
Net cash from operating activities decreased $7 million compared to the second quarter of 2024 primarily due to:
Net cash from operating activities increased $207 million compared to the first six months of 2024 primarily due to:
Cash used in investing activities in the first six months of 2025 was $1,453 million primarily due to the Montney Acquisition and capital expenditures, partially offset by the sale of the Company’s Uinta assets. Capital expenditures, and acquisition and divestiture activities are summarized in Notes 3 and 8, respectively, to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
Capital expenditures decreased $75 million compared to the first six months of 2024, primarily due to decreased capital activity resulting from the sale of the Uinta assets in the first quarter of 2025, and decreased capital activity and increased efficiencies in Permian, partially offset by increased capital activity in Anadarko and increased capital activity in Montney due to the Montney Acquisition in the first quarter of 2025.
Acquisitions in the first six months of 2025 were $2,313 million, which primarily included the Montney Acquisition. Acquisitions in the first six months of 2024 were $195 million, which primarily included property purchases with oil and liquids-rich potential in the USA Operations.
Divestitures in the first six months of 2025 were $1,896 million, which primarily included the sale of the Uinta assets in Utah.
Additional information regarding the Montney Acquisition and the sale of the Uinta assets can be found in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Net cash used in financing activities has been impacted by Ovintiv’s strategic objective to return value to shareholders by repaying existing debt, purchasing shares of common stock and paying dividends.
Net cash used in financing activities in the first six months of 2025 increased $168 million compared to 2024. The increase was primarily due to the repayment of the Company’s May 2025 senior notes during the second quarter of 2025 ($600 million), partially offset by decreased purchases of shares of common stock ($287 million) and an increase in the net issuance of revolving debt in 2025 compared to 2024 ($131 million).
In May 2025, Ovintiv redeemed its $600 million, 5.65 percent senior notes due May 15, 2025, with cash on hand and proceeds from short-term borrowings. The Company’s long-term debt, including the current portion of $940 million, totaled $5,333 million at June 30, 2025. The Company’s long-term debt at December 31, 2024, including the current portion of $600 million, totaled $5,453 million. As at June 30, 2025, the Company has $459 million of fixed rate long-term debt due within the next year.
In support of the Company’s commitment to enhancing shareholder value, Ovintiv utilizes its capital allocation framework to provide competitive returns to shareholders while strengthening its balance sheet. Ovintiv resumed its share buyback program in the second quarter of 2025 following a temporary pause, as discussed below, and expects to continue to deliver shareholder returns through share buybacks.
For additional information on long-term debt, refer to Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Further details on the Company’s debt-based metrics can be found in the Non-GAAP measures section of this MD&A.
The Company pays quarterly dividends to common shareholders at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
Dividend Payments
Dividend Payments ($/share)

On July 24, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.30 per share of common stock payable on September 29, 2025, to common shareholders of record as of September 15, 2025.
On September 26, 2024, the Company announced it had received regulatory approval for the renewal of its NCIB program, which enables the Company to purchase, for cancellation or return to treasury, up to approximately 25.9 million shares of common stock over a 12-month period from October 3, 2024 to October 2, 2025. The Company expects to continue to execute the NCIB program in conjunction with its capital allocation framework.
The Company’s share buyback program was temporarily paused in the fourth quarter of 2024 to recover the transaction proceeds differential between the Montney Acquisition and the Uinta divestiture of $377 million. Following the recovery of the transaction proceeds differential, Ovintiv resumed its share buyback program under the NCIB in the second quarter of 2025 and purchased, for cancellation, approximately 4.1 million shares of common stock for total consideration of approximately $147 million. For additional information on the NCIB, refer to Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 and Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
Material Cash Requirements
For information on material cash requirements, refer to the Material Cash Requirements section of the MD&A included in Item 7 of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
For information on commitments and contingencies, refer to Note 21 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Critical Accounting Estimates
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and use of estimates from the disclosures reported in the Critical Accounting Estimates section of the MD&A included in Item 7 of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10‑K.
Non-GAAP Measures
Certain measures in this document do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, are considered non-GAAP measures. These measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and should not be viewed as a substitute for measures reported under U.S. GAAP. These measures are commonly used in the oil and gas industry and by Ovintiv to provide shareholders and potential investors with additional information regarding the Company’s liquidity and its ability to generate funds to finance its operations. Non-GAAP measures include: Non-GAAP Cash Flow, Debt to Adjusted Capitalization, Debt to EBITDA and Debt to Adjusted EBITDA. Management’s use of these measures is discussed further below.
Cash from Operating Activities and Non-GAAP Cash Flow
Non-GAAP Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as cash from (used in) operating activities excluding net change in other assets and liabilities, and net change in non-cash working capital.
Management believes this measure is useful to the Company and its investors as a measure of operating and financial performance across periods and against other companies in the industry, and is an indication of the Company’s ability to generate cash to finance capital investment programs, to service debt and to meet other financial obligations. This measure is used, along with other measures, in the calculation of certain performance targets for the Company’s management and employees.

Debt to Capitalization and Debt to Adjusted Capitalization
Debt to Adjusted Capitalization is a non-GAAP measure which adjusts capitalization for historical ceiling test impairments that were recorded as at December 31, 2011. Management monitors Debt to Adjusted Capitalization as a proxy for the Company’s financial covenant under the Credit Facilities which require Debt to Adjusted Capitalization to be less than 60 percent. Adjusted Capitalization includes debt, total shareholders’ equity and an equity adjustment for cumulative historical ceiling test impairments recorded as at December 31, 2011 in conjunction with the Company’s January 1, 2012, adoption of U.S. GAAP.

Debt to EBITDA and Debt to Adjusted EBITDA
Debt to EBITDA and Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. EBITDA is defined as trailing 12-month net earnings (loss) before income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, and interest. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for impairments, accretion of asset retirement obligation, unrealized gains/losses on risk management, foreign exchange gains/losses, gains/losses on divestitures and other gains/losses.
Management believes these measures are useful to the Company and its investors as a measure of financial leverage and the Company’s ability to service its debt and other financial obligations. These measures are used, along with other measures, in the calculation of certain financial performance targets for the Company’s management and employees.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The primary objective of the following information is to provide forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about Ovintiv’s potential exposure to market risks. The term “market risk” refers to the Company’s risk of loss arising from adverse changes in oil, NGL and natural gas prices, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The following disclosures are not meant to be precise indicators of expected future losses but rather indicators of reasonably possible losses. The forward-looking information provides indicators of how the Company views and manages ongoing market risk exposures.
COMMODITY PRICE RISK
Commodity price risk arises from the effect fluctuations in future commodity prices, including oil, NGLs and natural gas, may have on future revenues, expenses and cash flows. Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing worldwide price for oil and spot market prices applicable to the Company’s natural gas production. Pricing for oil, NGLs and natural gas production is volatile and unpredictable as discussed in Part 1, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q in the Executive Overview section in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10‑K. To partially mitigate exposure to commodity price risk, the Company may enter into various derivative financial instruments including futures, forwards, swaps, options and costless collars. The use of these derivative instruments is governed under formal policies and is subject to limits established by the Board of Directors and may vary from time to time. Both exchange traded and over-the-counter traded derivative instruments may be subject to margin-deposit requirements, and the Company may be required from time to time to deposit cash or provide letters of credit with exchange brokers or counterparties to satisfy these margin requirements. For additional information relating to the Company’s derivative and financial instruments, see Notes 18 and 19 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
The table below summarizes the sensitivity of the fair value of the Company’s risk management positions to fluctuations in commodity prices, with all other variables held constant. The Company has used a 10 percent variability to assess the potential impact of commodity price changes. Fluctuations in commodity prices could have resulted in unrealized gains (losses) impacting pre-tax net earnings as follows:
10% PriceIncrease
10% PriceDecrease
Oil price

NGL price
Natural gas price
FOREIGN EXCHANGE RISK
Foreign exchange risk arises from changes in foreign exchange rates that may affect the fair value or future cash flows from the Company’s financial assets or liabilities. As Ovintiv operates primarily in the United States and Canada, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian dollars can have a significant effect on the Company’s reported results.
The table below summarizes selected foreign exchange impacts on Ovintiv’s financial results when compared to the same periods in 2024.

Foreign exchange gains and losses also arise when monetary assets and monetary liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated and settled, and primarily include:
To partially mitigate the effect of foreign exchange fluctuations on future commodity revenues and expenses, the Company may enter into foreign currency derivative contracts from time to time. As at June 30, 2025, the Company does not have any notional U.S. dollar denominated currency swaps.
As at June 30, 2025, Ovintiv did not have any U.S. dollar denominated financing debt issued from Canada that was subject to foreign exchange exposure.
The table below summarizes the sensitivity to foreign exchange rate fluctuations, with all other variables held constant. The Company has used a 10 percent variability to assess the potential impact from Canadian to U.S. foreign currency exchange rate changes. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could have resulted in unrealized gains (losses) impacting pre-tax net earnings as follows:

(27
INTEREST RATE RISK
Interest rate risk arises from changes in market interest rates that may affect the fair value or future cash flows from the Company’s financial assets or liabilities. The Company may partially mitigate its exposure to interest rate changes by holding a mix of both fixed and floating rate debt and may also enter into interest rate derivatives to partially mitigate effects of fluctuations in market interest rates.
As at June 30, 2025, Ovintiv had floating rate revolving credit and term loan borrowings of $481 million. Accordingly, on a before-tax basis, the sensitivity for each one percent change in interest rates on floating rate revolving credit and term loan borrowings was $5 million.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Ovintiv’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2025.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Please refer to Item 3 of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10‑K and Note 21 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10‑Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A., “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchase of Equity Securities
On September 26, 2024, Ovintiv announced it had received regulatory approval to purchase, for cancellation or return to treasury, up to approximately 25.9 million shares of common stock pursuant to a NCIB over a 12-month period from October 3, 2024 and ending October 2, 2025. The number of shares of common stock authorized for purchase represents approximately 10 percent of Ovintiv’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock as at such time.
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company purchased approximately 4.1 million shares of common stock for approximately $146 million, excluding excise tax, at a weighted average price of $35.92. The following table presents the common shares purchased during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

In the second quarter of 2025, Ovintiv renewed its exemption order (the “NCIB Exemption”) from the Alberta Securities Commission and the Ontario Securities Commission, which permits Ovintiv to make repurchases (the “Proposed Bids”), under its current and any future normal course issuer bids, through the facilities of the NYSE and other U.S.-based trading systems (collectively, “U.S. Markets”), in excess of the maximum allowable purchases under applicable Canadian securities laws. The Company’s initial NCIB Exemption was granted in the first quarter of 2022. The NCIB Exemption applies to any Proposed Bid commenced within 36 months of the date of the exemption order and is subject to several other conditions, including that Ovintiv remain a U.S. and SEC foreign issuer under applicable Canadian securities laws. The purchases of common stock under a Proposed Bid must also be made in compliance with other applicable Canadian securities laws and applicable U.S. rules. Additionally, the NCIB Exemption imposes restrictions on the number of shares of common stock that may be acquired under the exemption, including that: (a) Ovintiv may not acquire common stock in reliance upon the exemption under subsection 4.8(3) of Canadian National Instrument 62-104 – Take-Over Bids and Issuer Bids (“NI 62-104”) from the requirements applicable to issuer bids (the “Other Published Markets Exemption”) if the aggregate number of shares of common stock purchased by Ovintiv, and any person or company acting jointly or in concert with Ovintiv, in reliance on the NCIB Exemption and the Other Published Markets Exemption within any period of 12 months exceeds 5 percent of the outstanding common stock on the first day of such 12-month period; and (b) the aggregate number of shares of common stock purchased pursuant to (i) a Proposed Bid in reliance on the NCIB Exemption; (ii) exempt issuer bid purchases made in the normal course through the facilities of the TSX; and (iii) the Other Published Markets Exemption does not exceed, over the 12-month period of its current NCIB, 10 percent of Ovintiv’s public float. As a result, the NCIB Exemption effectively allows Ovintiv to purchase up to 10 percent of its public float on U.S. Markets under its NCIB. Without the NCIB Exemption this amount would be limited to 5 percent of Ovintiv’s outstanding common stock within a 12-month period under applicable Canadian securities law.
