Financial highlights
Q3 revenue increased to $2.602b from $2.066b YoY; operating income was $877m versus $273m, and net earnings were $549m versus $148m.
Cash from operating activities was $1.070b; Non-GAAP Cash Flow was $1.243b and Free Cash Flow was $680m, versus $895m and $351m, respectively, in Q3 2025.
Capital investment was $563m; production averaged 630.6 MBOE/d. Oil and plant condensate was 203.7 Mbbl/d, while other NGLs were 83.2 Mbbl/d.
Oil and plant condensate volumes were below guidance, primarily due to third-party plant downtime and higher Canadian royalties; other NGLs exceeded guidance.
Realized prices including hedges were $80.69/bbl for oil and condensate, $20.26/bbl for other NGLs and $2.70/Mcf for natural gas.
Outlook and guidance
FY26 guidance: production 630–645 MBOE/d, oil and condensate 210–212 Mbbl/d, NGLs 85–87 Mbbl/d, natural gas 2,025–2,075 MMcf/d and capital investment $2.25–$2.35b.
Q4 guidance: production 615–640 MBOE/d, oil and condensate 203–207 Mbbl/d, NGLs 78–82 Mbbl/d, natural gas 2,000–2,100 MMcf/d and capital investment $550–$600m.
Q4 guidance assumes the Albright/Montney third-party midstream outage continues through the quarter; $50m of capital was shifted from Montney to Permian.
Oil and condensate production per share grew ~6% through Q3; year-end growth of 8%–9% is targeted without additional activity.
FY26 outlook includes an estimated $25m Canadian Productivity Mega Deduction tax benefit; 2027 cash tax savings from the deduction are expected to total ~$100m.
