Message to Shareholders
These actions provide a clear path toward deleveraging while we execute on a clear development plan across the portfolio. Over the past several years, our team has assembled a diversified, high-quality asset base across
Operational:
- Production:
- Gran Tierra achieved 2025 average WI production of 45,709 BOEPD, representing a 32% increase from 2024, as a result of positive exploration well results in
Ecuador , full year production from the Canadian operations, partially offset by lower production inSouthern Colombia andEcuador as a result of two major export pipeline disruptions, and trunk line repairs at the Moqueta field which resulted in the field being shut-in during the third quarter of 2025. - The Quarter: Gran Tierra produced an average WI production of 46,344 BOEPD, a 13% increase from the fourth quarter 2024 and a 9% increase from the third quarter 2025 (“the Prior Quarter”).
- Gran Tierra achieved 2025 average WI production of 45,709 BOEPD, representing a 32% increase from 2024, as a result of positive exploration well results in
- Commitments: Gran Tierra significantly reduced its capital commitments in both
Ecuador andColombia during the year. InEcuador , the Company completed all Phase 1 commitments and submitted the required Field Development Plans, fully securing its country entry. InColombia , commitments were streamlined through targeted portfolio and work program revisions. Together with ongoing debt reduction, these actions reduced letters of credit and obligations, materially improving liquidity and enhancing capital allocation flexibility going forward. - 2026 Suroriente Drilling Campaign: The Company recently drilled the Raju-2 well on the Suroriente Block, targeting the northern extent of the Cohembi field. The well is currently producing at a rate of approximately 790 barrels of oil per day, 6 barrels of water per day and 0.6 thousand cubic feet of gas per day and is on track to exceed management’s initial 30-day production expectations. Raju-2 further delineates the productive limits of the field while reinforcing the development potential of the broader Cohembi structure. The well is part of is part ofthe capital carry commitment associated with Suroriente and with three wells remaining, the Company expects to complete the remaining capital carry by the middle of 2026.
- Azerbaijan Entry: Gran Tierra entered into an exploration, development and production sharing agreement (“EDPSA”) with the
State Oil Company of theAzerbaijan Republic (“SOCAR”), providing for a 65% participating interest to Gran Tierra and 35% to SOCAR. The EDPSA includes a five-year exploration phase and upon a commercial discovery, a 25-year development phase. Minimum exploration commitments to be completed within 36 months include the acquisition of 250 square kilometres of 3D seismic, the drilling of two exploration wells, and geological and environment impact studies.

$129.9 million , a decrease of 13% or$19.3 million from the Prior Quarter, primarily driven by a 7% decrease in the Brent oil price, offsetting a 13% increase in production. Oil, natural gas and NGL sales were$32.95 per boe, a 10% decrease from the Prior Quarter primarily as a result of lower oil prices and lower natural gas prices inCanada . Sales in the Quarter were impacted by the timing of a lifting inEcuador that deferred approximately$15 million of revenue, which was recognized in earlyJanuary 2026 .

Gran Tierra’s Commitment to Go “Beyond Compliance” with Safe and Sustainable Operations
- 2025 was the Company’s safest year on record. Gran Tierra has accumulated a total of 37.2 million person-hours without a Lost Time Injury (LTI), and in 2025, the Company’s Total Recordable Incident Frequency (TRIF) was 0.02, placing Gran Tierra in the top quartile for safety performance across its operating regions.
- Gran Tierra opened the Acordionero Forestry Centre in
El Cairo , Cesar,Colombia — the Company’s second forestry centre dedicated to biodiversity, conservation, sustainable agricultural management and environmental innovation. Nearly 11,000 native trees have already been planted at the site, and the nursery produces approximately 9,000 plants per month, reinforcing its contribution to regional ecosystem recovery. The Centre also features a solar-powered aquaponics system that operates as a closed loop: tilapia waste fertilizes soil-free crops while water is continuously recycled, reducing water use by more than 90% compared with traditional farming. - Launched in 2017 in
Colombia , Gran Tierra’s flagship program NaturAmazonas, has evolved into much more than a traditional conservation project. While Gran Tierra has consistently expanded our reforestation efforts to exceed initial targets, the program now also integrates the local economy into it. Gran Tierra has grown to support over 800 local families in deforestation-free cacao farming, connected them with international buyers and has trained over 420 local beekeepers to produce sustainable honey from native bee species. - Throughout all of Gran Tierra’s environmental initiatives, Gran Tierra has planted over 1.9 million trees and restored or protected over 5,600 hectares of land so far.
- More than 400,000 people have benefited from Gran Tierra’s social investment programs in
South America to date. - As part of the Works for Taxes program, Gran Tierra is building four major infrastructure projects in Putumayo, including a new aqueduct that will deliver potable water to 1,300 residents in the municipalities of Mocoa,
Valle del Guamuez and Puerto Asís. Other initiatives include rural road upgrades benefiting 24,000 local residents and improvements to local school facilities. - Gran Tierra has been accepted by the Voluntary Principles Initiative as an official member of the Voluntary Principles for Security and Human Rights world-wide initiative. This membership is a recognition of Gran Tierra’s efforts at respecting and promoting human dignity and provides support to improve the Company’s security and Human Rights performance.

Additional information on 2025 expenses:
- Quality and Transportation Discount: increased in 2025 to
$24.78 per boe compared to$17.93 per boe in 2024 as a result of a change in production mix, driven by the full integration of Canadian operations acquired inOctober 2024 . - Transportation Expenses: decreased by 29% to
$1.04 per boe in 2025 from$1.47 per boe in 2024 as a result of higher sales volumes transported inEcuador , two months of transportation of sales volumes inCanada through pipelines, and an increase in trucking tariffs for Acordionero volumes in 2025. - Royalties: decreased to
$7.02 per boe in 2025, from$12.33 per boe in 2024. This decrease was driven by the 15% decrease in the Brent oil price in 2025 relative to 2024 and the price sensitive royalty regime inColombia andEcuador .
1 Operating netback, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, funds flow from operations, net debt, free cash flow, and cash netback, are non-GAAP measures and do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP. Cash flow refers to the GAAP line item “net cash provided by operating activities”. Refer to “Non-GAAP Measures” in this press release for descriptions of these non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
2 The after-tax net present value of the Company’s oil and gas properties reflects the tax burden on the properties on a stand-alone basis. It does not consider the corporate tax situation, or tax planning. It does not provide an estimate of the value at the Company level which may be significantly different. The Company’s financial statements should be consulted for information at the Company level.
3 NAV per share is calculated as NPV10 (before or after tax, as applicable) of the applicable reserves category minus net debt, divided by the number of shares of Gran Tierra’s common stock issued and outstanding.
4 Outstanding shares of common stock based on
5 Per boe amounts are based on WI sales before royalties. For per boe amounts based on NAR production, see Gran Tierra’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on
6 Gross profit is calculated as oil, gas and NGL sales, less operating and transportation expenses, and depletion and accretion related to producing assets.
7 Depletion and Accretion is calculated as DD&A expenses less depreciation of administrative assets.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures as further described herein. These non-GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning under GAAP. Investors are cautioned that these measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income or loss, cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. Gran Tierra’s method of calculating these measures may differ from other companies and, accordingly, they may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure.
Net Debt, as presented as at
Operating netback, as presented, is defined as gross profit less depletion and accretion related to producing assets. Operating netback per boe, as presented, is defined as operating netback over WI sales volume. Cash netback, as presented, is most directly comparable to gross profit and is calculated as gross profit adjusted for depletion and accretion related to producing assets, cash G&A expenses, transaction costs, export tax, realized foreign exchange gains or losses, cash settlement on derivative instruments, interest expense excluding amortization of debt issuance costs, interest income, other cash gains or losses, net lease payments, and current income tax expense or recovery. Cash netback per boe, as presented, is defined as cash netback over WI sales volumes. Management believes that operating netback and cash netback are useful supplemental measures for investors to analyze financial performance and provide an indication of the results generated by Gran Tierra’s principal business activities prior to the consideration of other income and expenses. See the table entitled Financial and Operational Highlights above for the components of operating netback and operating netback per boe.

DISCLOSURE OF OIL AND GAS INFORMATION
Gran Tierra’s Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information on Form 51-101F1 dated effective as at
Estimates of net present value and future net revenue contained herein do not necessarily represent fair market value of reserves. Estimates of reserves and future net revenue for individual properties may not reflect the same level of confidence as estimates of reserves and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effect of aggregation. There is no assurance that the forecast price and cost assumptions applied by McDaniel in evaluating Gran Tierra’s reserves and future net revenue will be attained and variances could be material. See
All evaluations of future net revenue contained in the GTE McDaniel Reserves Report are after the deduction of royalties, operating costs, development costs and abandonment and reclamation costs but before consideration of indirect costs such as administrative, overhead and other miscellaneous expenses. It should not be assumed that the estimates of future net revenue presented in this press release represent the fair market value of the reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of crude oil and natural gas reserves and the future cash flows attributed to such reserves. The reserve and associated cash flow information set forth in the GTE McDaniel Reserves Report are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual reserves may be greater than or less than the estimates provided therein.
Boes have been converted on the basis of six thousand cubic feet (“Mcf”) natural gas to 1 boe of oil. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 boe is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. In addition, given that the value ratio based on the current price of oil as compared with natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalent of six to one, utilizing a boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 boe would be misleading as an indication of value.
References to a formation where evidence of hydrocarbons has been encountered is not necessarily an indicator that hydrocarbons will be recoverable in commercial quantities or in any estimated volume. Gran Tierra’s reported production is a mix of light crude oil and medium, heavy crude oil, tight oil, conventional natural gas, shale gas and natural gas liquids for which there is no precise breakdown since the Company’s sales volumes typically represent blends of more than one product type. Drilling locations disclosed herein are derived from the GTE McDaniel Reserves Report and account for drilling locations that have associated Proved Undeveloped and Proved plus Probable Undeveloped reserves, as applicable. Well test results should be considered as preliminary and not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. Well log interpretations indicating oil and gas accumulations are not necessarily indicative of future production or ultimate recovery. If it is indicated that a pressure transient analysis or well-test interpretation has not been carried out, any data disclosed in that respect should be considered preliminary until such analysis has been completed. References to thickness of “oil pay” or of a formation where evidence of hydrocarbons has been encountered is not necessarily an indicator that hydrocarbons will be recoverable in commercial quantities or in any estimated volume.
Future Net Revenue
Future net revenue reflects McDaniel’s forecast of revenue estimated using forecast prices and costs, arising from the anticipated development and production of reserves, after the deduction of royalties, operating costs, development costs and abandonment and reclamation costs and taxes but before consideration of indirect costs such as administrative, overhead and other miscellaneous expenses. The estimate of future net revenue below does not necessarily represent fair market value.

Definitions
Proved reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.
Probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.
Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than Probable reserves. It is unlikely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable plus possible reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of 3P reserves.
Developed producing reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from completion intervals open at the time of the estimate. These reserves may be currently producing or, if shut-in, they must have previously been on production, and the date of resumption of production must be known with reasonable certainty.
Developed non-producing reserves are those reserves that either have not been on production or have previously been on production but are shut-in and the date of resumption of production is unknown.
Undeveloped reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (e.g., when compared to the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves category (proved, probable, possible) to which they are assigned.
Certain terms used in this press release but not defined are defined in NI 51-101, CSA Staff Notice 51-324 - Revised Glossary to NI 51-101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities (“CSA Staff Notice 51-324”) and/or the COGEH and, unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the same meanings herein as in NI 51-101, CSA Staff Notice 51-324 and the COGEH, as the case may be.
Oil and Gas Metrics
This press release contains a number of oil and gas metrics, including NAV per share, operating netback, cash netback, reserves replacement, and reserve life index which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company’s performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the future performance of the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods.
- NAV per share is calculated as the applicable NPV10 (before or after-tax, as applicable) of the applicable reserves category minus estimated net debt, divided by the number of shares of Gran Tierra’s common stock issued and outstanding. Management uses NAV per share as a measure of the relative change of Gran Tierra’s net asset value over its outstanding common stock over a period of time.
- Operating netback and cash netback are calculated as described in this press release. Management believes that operating netback and cash netback are useful supplemental measures for the reasons described in this press release.
- Reserves replacement is calculated as reserves in the referenced category divided by estimated referenced production. Management uses this measure to determine the relative change of its reserves base over a period of time.
- Reserve life index is calculated as reserves in the referenced category divided by the referenced production. Management uses this measure to determine how long the booked reserves will last at current production rates if no further reserves were added.
Disclosure of Reserve Information and Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors
Unless expressly stated otherwise, all estimates of proved developed producing, proved, probable and possible reserves and related future net revenue disclosed in this press release have been prepared in accordance with NI 51-101. Estimates of reserves and future net revenue made in accordance with NI 51-101 will differ from corresponding GAAP standardized measures prepared in accordance with applicable

The Company believes that the presentation of NPV10 is useful to investors because it presents (i) relative monetary significance of its oil and natural gas properties regardless of tax structure and (ii) relative size and value of its reserves to other companies. The Company also uses this measure when assessing the potential return on investment related to its oil and natural gas properties. NPV10 and the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows do not purport to present the fair value of the Company’s oil and gas reserves. The Company has not provided a reconciliation of NPV10 to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows because it is impracticable to do so.
