Transformational growth in 2021
 Acquisition of Blackspur – Following a A$38 million equity financing (before transaction costs), Calima completed the
acquisition of Blackspur Oil Corp. (“Blackspur”) on 30 April 2021 for total cash and share consideration of A$22.4 million
paid to Blackspur shareholders and a A$28 million reduction of Blackspur’s Credit Facility (the “Blackspur Acquisition”
or “Acquisition”). Blackspur was a privately held Canadian company which owned producing oil and natural gas assets
in two core operating areas within Alberta, at Brooks and Thorsby.

Blackspur was formed in 2012 and followed through with acquisitions totalling C$74 million and the drilling of 59 oil
wells funded via a combination of equity and debt. Prior to the Acquisition, Blackspur had invested over C$200 million
acquiring and developing its assets, as well as creating inventory and infrastructure to accommodate production growth
to over 10,000 boe/d.

 2021 Capital Investments – Following the Acquisition, the Calima Group commenced the 2021 drilling program with
the  development  of four  Sunburst  Formation  wells that were drilled,  completed,  and  brought on  production in the
Brooks area (Gemini 1-4). Two of the four wells were on stream in late June with the other two wells completed and
brought on stream in July. During the second  half of the  year, the Company also drilled, completed and brought on
stream three wells targeting the Sparky Formation (Leo 1-3) in the Thorsby area.

 Production – Production  of 294,561  boe (gross)  of oil  and  natural  gas, averaging  3,202 boe/d  was achieved in the
fourth quarter of 2021. Year to date, the Company produced 779,570 boe (gross) of oil and natural gas, averaging 3,182
boe/d, a 30% increase compared to Blackspur’s average daily production during the year ended 31 December 2020.
 Energy Prices – For the full year, benchmark prices averaged US$67.90/bbl WTI, C$68.74/bbl WCS and C$3.50/GJ
AECO. Average prices increased to US$77.19/bbl WTI, C$78.71/bbl WCS and C$4.41/GJ AECO during the fourth quarter
of 2021, reflective of improved demand fundamentals for both oil and natural gas in North America in response to an
ongoing global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

2

 Sales and earnings – Oil and natural gas sales were A$19.8 million and the Company delivered Adjusted EBITDA(2) of
A$9.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2021. For the full year, oil and natural gas sales were A$47.7 million and
Adjusted EBITDA(2) was A$21.6 million. The increase in sales and Adjusted EBITDA(2) in 2021 were primarily due to the
Blackspur Acquisition. Whilst Company recognized a net loss of $31.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2021,
this was primarily due to an impairment loss of undeveloped exploration assets.

 Reserves – Following  the  2021  drilling  program, the  Calima  Group’s independent  reserve  engineer(1) completed  an
updated evaluation of the Brooks and Thorsby assets as at 31 December 2021. The Company has confirmed 5.1 million
boe of proved developed producing (“PDP”) reserves and 20.4 million boe of proved plus probable reserves (“2P”).

Capital investments set to deliver strong free cash flow in 2022
 Production ramp up – In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company commenced flow back operations from the three
Sparky Formation wells (Leo 1-3) in the Thorsby area. Intermittent production commenced in mid-November and oil
and gas volumes from the wells continued to increase well into January as the wells cleaned up. As of March 2022,
corporate production was exceeding 4,000 boe/d.

 2022 Forecast – the Calima Group approved a first half (H1) 2022 capital investment program of C$19.5 million for
continued development  of  the  Company’s  Brooks and  Thorsby core  areas.  The  Company’s  capital  program  includes
three Glauconitic, three Sunburst wells, one step out Sparky well and the new Brooks pipeline. For the six months ending
30 June 2022, Calima is targeting:

(cid:127) Average daily production of 4,000 – 5,000 boe/d; and
(cid:127) Adjusted EBITDA(2)(3) of C$28-33 million based on forecasted production and commodity prices.

The  Company  commenced  its  2022  winter  drilling  program  early  in  December  2021. Fourth  quarter investments
included the drilling of the first two Glauconitic Formation wells at Brooks (Pisces #1 and #2). A third Glauconitic well
(Pisces #3) and three Sunburst wells (Gemini #5-#7) were drilled in January. The wells were on production by the end
of first quarter. An additional step-out Sparky exploration well (Leo #4) was also drilled in the first quarter.

 Strategic  infrastructure  development – On  31  January  2022,  the Calima  Group entered  into  a  strategic
infrastructure financing arrangement with a third party to construct a field pipeline connecting the Company’s 02-29
battery in the northern portion of its Brooks, Alberta asset area to its wells, lands, and gathering systems in the southern
portion of the Bantry asset base. The pipeline was completed and brought on stream during the first quarter of 2022.

The pipeline is expected to reduce operating costs from the displacement of emulsion hauling and equipment rentals
and  most  importantly  provide  egress  for  many  future  drilling  locations  in  the  Sunburst, Glauconitic and  Ellerslie
Formations which will improve full cycle economics of the Bantry field development plan. The pipeline is expected to
also reduce emissions from the displacement of trucking, improve the Company’s safety and spill prevention profile and
reduce flare volumes for each  new well tied-into the pipeline as opposed to the allowable flare limits under current
regulations.

Liquidity and Corporate finance
 2022  fundraising – On 17  February  2022,  the  Company successfully  raised A$20  million in  gross  proceeds  via  a
placement of 100 million new fully paid ordinary common shares to institutional and sophisticated investors at an issue
price  of  A$0.20  per  share.  The  oversubscribed  issuance  was  strongly  supported  by  existing  shareholders  and  new
Australian  and  international  investors.  Proceeds  from  the  issuance  were initially used  to reduce  the  amount  drawn
under the Company’s revolving Credit Facility and will also fund the completion of the Company’s 2022 capital program.
 Liquidity – The Company’s net debt(2) as at 31 December 2021 was A$27.8 million compared to A$16.4 million as at 30
June 2021. Growth  in  the  Company’s  net debt(2) in  2021  was  primarily  due  to  the  Company’s  investment  in  the  Leo
drilling program and the acceleration of the 2022 drilling program at Brooks, including the drilling of Pisces #1 and #2
wells in December, as well as additional pipe inventory purchased for the drilling of Gemini #5-7 and Pisces #3.
Including  the  impact  of  cash  received  from  the  first  quarter  equity  financing,  anticipated  free  cash  flow(2) and  the
arrangement under the H1 2022 strategic infrastructure development, the Calima Group’s net debt(2)(3) is expected to
decline to C$2-C$5 million by mid-year 2022 following completion of the H1 2022 capital development program.

 Share consolidation – On 10 September 2021, the Company completed a 20:1 share consolidation. The consolidation

has successfully reduced arbitrage trading and the Company is very pleased with the results to date.

CHAIRMAN & CEO’S LETTER
For the year ended 31 December 2021

To the Shareholders of Calima Energy Limited:

We  are  pleased to  present  the annual  report  of  Calima  Energy  Limited (ASX:  CE1)  (“Calima”,  “Calima  Group”,  “the
Company”) for the year ended 31 December 2021.

2021 was a monumental year for the Company. The Blackspur Acquisition has transformed Calima from a pre-development
explorer in the NE BC Montney play, to an oil and natural gas producer in Southern and Central Alberta with production
currently exceeding  4,000  boe/d.  The recapitalisation was  well-timed,  with  significant  gains  to  the  commodity  price
environment having been experienced over the past year since that time, following a global demand recovery from the
COVID-19 pandemic. Looking ahead, we believe our investments have provided shareholders with great exposure to the
Canadian oil and natural gas sector and an opportunity for strong returns on these oil-weighted assets.

In 2021, our focus was on our core inventory of Mannville Formation targets, with four Sunburst wells drilled at Brooks and
three Sparky wells drilled at Thorsby. Blackspur also brought on stream three Sunburst wells just prior to the Acquisition.
Despite a number of challenges experienced during the year, the Company was able to successfully execute the program
by the end of the year. The three Sunburst wells at Brooks have since paid out, and production from the Thorsby program
has ramped up significantly during the first quarter of 2022. We continue to de-risk our plays through the drill bit, and the
learnings from the 2021 development activities are expected to provide meaningful efficiencies on future programs.

Safe production is paramount to our business. Calima has continued to build upon the strong safety performance exhibited
by Blackspur both before and after the Acquisition. We are proud to report that our 10-well capital investment program in
2021 was completed with zero lost time incidents or injuries occurring during the year.

The Company approved a H1 2022 capital budget of C$19.5 million for continued development of the Brooks and Thorsby
asset areas. The 7 (6.5 net) well program targeted development of the Glauconitic and Sunburst Formations at Brooks.
Additionally, the Company extended its prospective Sparky Formation by stepping out to the North end of our Thorsby land
position with a joint 50% net well. These programs are expected to greatly contribute to our production growth in 2022
and expand our inventory of high-graded drilling locations and reserves. Capital discipline and execution is a key focus for
Calima in 2022. We are selective and purposeful in the locations we choose to drill and have continued to employ a rigorous
geological and geophysical program aimed at reducing formation uncertainty prior to development.

Our strategy is about flexibility. We intend to grow production while still providing the Company an opportunity to generate
free cash flow for the reduction of debt, acquire new assets, and return capital to shareholders through share buybacks or
dividends. The Calima Group is seeking to take advantage of the current commodity price environment by investing in a
combination of core formation targets that will help grow the business in a profitable manner.

Calima is committed to pursuing a number of ESG initiatives aimed at reducing GHG emissions, reclaiming inactive well sites
and reducing our impact to the environment. We are committed operating safely, being a good neighbour and a being a
good corporate citizen. We are committed to establishing and maintaining strong corporate governance practices that will
lead the organisation to a long-term sustainable future.

Thank you for your continued support.

ABOUT CALIMA ENERGY LIMITED

Calima is a production-focused energy company pursuing the exploration
and  development  of  oil  and natural  gas  assets  in  the Western  Canadian
Sedimentary  Basin.  The  Company  is  currently  developing  its  oil  plays  at
Brooks and Thorsby in southern and central Alberta. Additionally, Calima
owns a significant undeveloped Montney acreage position at Tommy Lakes
in  north-eastern  British  Columbia. The  Company is  dedicated  to
responsible  corporate  practices,  and  places  high  value  on  adhering  to
strong Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") principles.

Brooks Sunburst & Glauconitic
The  Company’s  Brooks  assets  consist  of  a  core land position  of  >40,000
acres  primarily  targeting  the  Sunburst  and  Glauconitic  formations.  The
Brooks  assets currently  has over  60  wells producing >2,300  boe/d. The
Sunburst  Formation  does  not  require  hydraulic  fracture  stimulation  and
can be developed at low cost (C$1M-$1.4MM per well) delivering attractive
rates of return. The Brooks  reservoirs contain a low CO2 content at ~2%,
and  the  Company’s  multi-well  pad  drilling  reduces  the  environmental
footprint. The Brooks area contains significant infrastructure that creates a
foundation for growth and expansion with year-round access. Blackspur’s
existing infrastructure across the entire Brooks area can process up to 8,200
bbl/d oil, 26,700 barrels per day of water and 12 MMcf/d. The Glauconitic
Formation is a shallower (younger) formation than Calima’s core Sunburst
conventional  play  and  requires  hydraulic  fracture  stimulation.  The
combination of the shallow target depth and short tie-in, results in an all-in
cost for each well of C$2-$3M, depending on chosen horizontal length of
the wellbore.

Thorsby Sparky
The Thorsby asset consists of a core land position of >62,000 acres primarily
targeting the Sparky Formation. The Thorsby asset currently has 14 wells
producing >1,800 boe/d. Thorsby has a large well inventory with 86 Sparky
Formation  and  12  Nisku  Formation  wells  identified,  including 20 Sparky
PUD  locations. The  Company’s  existing  Sparky  Formation  wells  are
characterised by low base decline rates, which is expected to average 22%
(average  over  two  years). The  Company’s Thorsby position provides  a
consolidated land base that can be efficiently developed through a network
of multi-well pads, all of which have year-round access. The contiguous land
base  also  contributes  to lower  operating  costs through  greater  logistical
efficiencies. The  Calima  Group’s facilities  currently  have oil  processing
capacity of up to 4,000 bbl/d oil (subject to emulsion water cut volumes at
the battery).

Tommy Lakes Montney
Calima currently owns and operates more than 33,600 acres of continuing
Montney  rights  (Calima  Lands)  in northeast  British  Columbia (NEBC),
Canada under a 10-year  PNG  lease  over  49 contiguous  sections resulting
from the successful 2019 drilling program. The Tommy Lakes field facilities
owned  by  Calima lies  immediately  to  the  north of the  Calima Lands. The
facilities  are  fully  permitted  and  have  been  preserved  for  future
recommissioning. Approval  to  construct  and  operate  a  multi-well
production facility has been received, which includes a permit to construct
a  pipeline  to  connect  the  Calima  well-pad  with  regional  pipeline  and
processing  infrastructure.    The  pipeline  will  connect  existing  and  future
Calima wells to the Company’s Tommy Lakes infrastructure with capacity
to  transfer  up  to  50  MMcf/d  of  wet  gas  and  2,500  bbl/d  of  wellhead
condensate  through  to  the  North  River  Midstream  sales  line,  providing
access  to  the  Canadian  and  US  markets  to  AECO,  Alliance  and  T-
North/Station 2. Calima continues to evaluate strategies with respect to the
Calima  Lands  to  unlock  shareholder  value  through  development,
partnerships, farm-out or outright sale.

(3) Sales volumes reflect 245 days of contributions from Blackspur following the acquisition on 30 April 2021. Blackspur sales volumes reported on a boe/d basis have been

averaged over 245 days.

Production in  2021 primarily relates  to Calima’s two  core  development areas at Brooks and Thorsby Alberta  that  were
acquired in the Blackspur Acquisition on 30 April 2021. The production split for 2021 was approximately 70% Brooks and
30% Thorsby. For the year ended 31 December 2021, the Calima Group produced 779,570 boe of oil and natural gas (3,182
boe/d, averaged over 245 days) during the months of May through December. Volumes produced by Blackspur prior the
Acquisition have not been included Calima’s consolidated results.

The  following  table  summarises  the  historical  production  of  Blackspur  before  and  after  the  Acquisition as  well  the
Company’s expected production forecast for H1 2022:

Blackspur’s  unconsolidated  production  during  the  year  ended  31 December  2020 averaged 2,446 boe/d.  Growth  in
production from the Blackspur assets in 2021 was primarily due to seven Sunburst Formation wells at Brooks brought on
stream during the year. The Company also reactivated a select number of wells during the year which had been suspended
in response to a low commodity price environment stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Calima’s fourth quarter production of 3,202 boe/d was in line with average daily production for the year and the Company
exited the fourth quarter at ~3,500 boe/d, as preliminary volumes from the three Sparky wells at Thorsby (Leo drill program)
late in the quarter were offset by production shut-ins of existing Thorsby wells during the Leo completion activities and
natural declines on base production. Additionally, extreme cold weather in December (minus 35oC and colder), together
with holiday periods and limited-service availability, restricted well and facility operations during the month which impacted

6

the  Company’s  fourth  quarter  volumes. Despite these  conditions and  a  resurgence  of  COVID-19, Calima was  able  to
successfully complete workover activities on the wells in December and early January with all three wells back on stream
by mid-January, however, production was deferred during this period. The Company expects run-times on the three Leo
wells to improve in 2022 as they continue to clean up from their fracture stimulations. As of March 2022, the Calima Group
is producing over 4,000 boe/d.

In 2021, the Calima Group produced 6,038 bbls (16 boe/d) of light oil from a single producing oil well in Northeastern BC,
south of the Company’s Tommy Lakes Montney asset.

(1) Figures have been presented for the eight months ended 31 December 2021 in order to provide users of this report with better comparability to the Company’s actual
realised prices and revenues for the 12 months ended 31 December 2021, substantially all of which was incurred subsequent to the Blackspur Acquisition on 30 April 2021.

The price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) at Cushing, Oklahoma is the primary benchmark for crude oil pricing in North
America.  The price that Calima receives  for its  oil  production  is  primarily  based on  the Western  Canadian  Select  (WCS)
benchmark price, which is driven by the price of WTI and local supply and demand, adjusted for changes in foreign exchange
rates, transportation and quality differentials. The majority of the Company’s oil production is delivered and sold in central
and southern Alberta at local oil terminals near the Brooks and Thorsby assets.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, WCS pricing averaged C$78.71 per bbl, compared
to C$71.79 per bbl during the third quarter of 2021 and C$66.99 per bbl during the
second quarter. Crude oil prices continued to strengthen throughout 2021 driven by
the  global  rollout  of  COVID-19  vaccines.  Northern American  crude  oil  inventories
were  drawn  down  for  much  of  the  year,  particularly  in  the  second  and  third
quarters, as a result of higher demand for oil as government restrictions were lifted
and economies re-opened. The foreign oil supply policy applied by OPEC+ has also
resulted in strengthening oil prices during the year. Despite these improvements,
the oil markets continued to experience volatility late in the year from the continued
spread of COVID-19 variant strains and rising tensions in the Middle East and Eastern
Europe.

Oil prices during the year ended 31 December 2020 were lower primarily due to reduced demand stemming from global
lockdown measures imposed by Governments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Calima Group sells its natural gas into the local NGTL system in southern Alberta. Accordingly, the AECO price is the
primary benchmark for the Company’s natural gas sales. The Calima Group’s natural gas is processed primarily at third-
party shallow-cut facilities. Accordingly, the Company generally receives a premium for its natural gas relative to the AECO
benchmark which is largely due to a higher concentration of liquids in the gas stream and, therefore, has a higher relative
heat content compared to the quoted benchmark price (as natural gas is sold by the gigajoule).

Average natural gas prices increased to C$4.41 per Mcf during the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to C$3.41 per Mcf
during the third quarter and C$3.07 per Mcf during the second quarter, primarily due to colder seasonal weather which led
to  higher  demand  for  heating.  Natural  gas  fundamentals  have  remained  strong throughout  2021 with  prices  averaging
C$3.73/Mcf  during  the  eight  months  ended  31  December  2021.  Increasing  oil  sands  production, the  phase-out  of  coal
energy in the Western Canada, an expanding petrochemical industry and increased power generation has  led to higher
local demand for natural gas. Lower overall gas supplies as a result of curtailed North American investments in natural gas
developments in response to COVID-19, combined with continued strong LNG exports out the southern United States, are
expected to be constructive for natural gas benchmark prices in the near term.

Adjusted EBITDA was $21.6 million compared to ($1.2) million in 2020. The increase in adjusted EBITDA was primarily due
to the Blackspur operating results since the date of the Acquisition on 30 April 2021. Adjusted EBITDA in 2020 primarily
related to Calima’s corporate overhead expenses and operating costs incurred on the inactive Montney assets.

The Calima Group pays royalties to various freehold royalty owners under various terms and rates, as well as to the Province
of  Alberta, in  respect  of  the  Company's  production  and  sales  volumes.  In  2020  and  2021, Blackspur’s  royalty  rate  has
averaged approximately 18-19% of gross oil and natural gas sales.

The Calima Group’s operating expenses primarily consist of the field lifting costs associated with the Company's production
from the Brooks and Thorsby asset areas, including operatorship labour, chemicals, energy related costs, lease rentals and
property taxes. The Company  also incurs processing fees at third-party facilities for the gathering and  processing of the
Company’s natural gas production.

Transportation  expenses  are  primarily  related  to  trucking  costs  associated  with  the  handling  and  transport of  the
Company’s produced emulsion and oil and to local receipt terminals where the oil is then delivered to market. Pipeline
tariffs are also recognised in respect of natural gas deliveries on the Alberta NGTL pipeline transportation system.

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of the Company’s overhead  costs at the Australian and Canadian
head offices incurred to support ongoing operations of the Brooks, Thorsby and Montney assets. Compared the prior year,
the increase in G&A expenses in 2021 were primarily due overhead costs associated with Blackspur.

(1) Refer to Advisories and Guidance on page 56 for additional information regarding the Company’s GAAP and non-GAAP measures.

During the year ended 31 December 2021, the Calima Group recognised a net loss of $32.0 million compared to a net loss
of $6.4 million in 2020. The net loss in 2021 was primarily due to asset write-downs taken in respect of the Tommy Lakes
Montney assets, partially offset by a net gain on acquisition recognised as part of the Blackspur Acquisition and Blackspur
earnings realised subsequent  to  the Acquisition. Losses  recognised  in  2020  primarily  consisted  of  the  Calima  Group’s
corporate overhead expenses as well as impairment losses related to other E&E expenditures incurred during the year.

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Calima Group recognised land expiry losses of $10.9 million, primarily in respect of the
Company’s prospective Montney acreages for which there were no drilling plans in the near term that were necessary to
extend the license tenure in the prospective northern region of the play.

Following a strategic review of the assets during the fourth quarter of 2021, the Calima Group determined that indicators
of impairment were present for the residual carrying value of the  Montney assets and the Company completed a test for
impairment. The results of the impairment test indicated that the net book value of the assets may exceed its recoverable
value and the Calima Group recognised an impairment loss provision of $37.6 million. The impairment loss primarily consists
of the costs related to pad construction, drilling and completion expenditures associated with Calima’s two-well Montney
exploration  program  in  2019.  The  impairment  loss  could  be  reversed  in  future  if  circumstances  indicated  a  material
improvement in the recoverable value.

Risk  management  contracts  relate  to Calima’s commodity  price  hedging  program  which  is  designed  to  limit  downside
exposure to market volatility, ensure a sufficient level of cash flows to service debt obligations and ensure capital is available
to  fund  the  Company’s  development  and  operational  programs. The  Company  also  must  maintain  minimum  hedging
requirements under the terms of the Credit Facility. During the year ended 31 December 2021, Calima recognised a $6.4
net loss on risk management contracts primarily due to rising commodity prices, particularly for oil (WTI), relative to the
Company’s fixed contract positions.

As a result of the Blackspur Acquisition, Calima recognised a net gain on acquisition $11.4 million, reflecting the fair market
value of assets acquired and the recognition of associated deferred income tax assets, in excess of the consideration paid.
The Company also recognised $1.0 million in transaction costs associated with the Acquisition.

Depletion and depreciation in 2021 reflects the development cost of Calima’s oil and gas investments which are initially
capitalised and  then amortised to  net  income over  their estimated  useful  lives.  The majority  of the  Company's  PP&E  is
depleted using the unit-of production method based on the estimated recoverable amount from 2P reserves. The depletion
base  consists  of the  historical  net  book  value of capitalised  costs,  plus estimated  future  development  costs required to
develop the Company's estimated 2P reserves. For the year ended 31 December 2021, the Calima Group’s depletion and
depreciation expense averaged $9.66/boe.

Calima  recognised  share-based  compensation  expense  of  $0.9 million  during  2021  primarily  due  to  the  issuance  of
incentive-based performance  rights and  stock  options  that  were  granted  to  the  personnel  of  Calima  and  Blackspur,
respectively.

(1) Primarily consists of land acquisitions, surface and mineral lease rentals, geological and geophysical activities and other carrying costs related exploration assets.

The Calima Group commenced the 2021 drilling program with the development of four Sunburst Formation wells that were
drilled, completed, and brought on production in the Brooks area (Gemini #1-#4). Two of the four wells were on stream in
late  June  with  the  other  two  wells  completed  and  brought  on  stream  in  July.  During  the  second  half  of  the  year, the
Company drilled, completed and brought on stream three Leo wells targeting the Sparky Formation in the Thorsby area.
Not included in the Company’s consolidated 2021 capital expenditures are the cost of three Sunburst Formation wells at
Brooks that were drilled and brought on stream by Blackspur prior to the Acquisition.

Capital investments in 2020 primarily relate to the acquisition of the Tommy Lakes Montney infrastructure, surface and
mineral lease rentals on undeveloped acreage and other carrying costs related to the Tommy Lakes Montney exploration
assets.

In  December,  the  Company  elected  to  accelerate  its  H1  2022  drilling  program. 2021  capital  investments  include A$3.1
million invested primarily to drill two Glauconitic Formation wells at Brooks (Pisces #1 and #2) as well as pre-spends for H1
2022  drilling  and  completion  activities.  The  two  Pisces  wells  were  completed  and  commenced  flowback  at  the  end  of
January 2022. A third Glauconitic well, Pisces #3, along with one vertical and two horizontal Sunburst wells (Gemini #5-#7)
were drilled in January and were brought on stream during the first quarter of 2022.

Including the acceleration of the 2022 winter drilling program of A$3.1 million, the Company deployed A$26.8 million of
capital  expenditures  for  the  full  year  ended  31  December  2021.  The  original  2021  capital  program  was  substantially
completed by the end of November with actual costs coming in at A$23.7 million, or approximately 10% higher than the
original budget of A$21.5 million.

Strategic infrastructure development

On 31 January 2022 the Company announced an agreement with Pivotal Energy Partners, a strategic infrastructure and
midstream company, to finance the construction of a pipeline connecting the Company’s 02-29 battery  in the northern
portion of its Brooks, Alberta asset base to its wells, lands, and gathering system in the southern portion of the Company’s
asset base. The pipeline was completed and brought on stream during the first quarter of 2022.

This project expands the Calima Group’s gathering system significantly and provides for the ability to economically grow
the core area while providing relative short tie-in options for future drilling locations. The Calima Group shall be the sole
owner of the Pipeline and will repay the capital costs to construct the pipeline over a term of seven years at a 12% cost of
financing with estimated fixed monthly payments of approximately C$76,000 based on the estimated cost of the pipeline
project of C$4.3 million. The Company retains the right to payout the financing on 180 days written notice starting on the
3rd anniversary of the agreement, subject to an early termination penalty provision. Current transport costs of ~C$55,000
per month are expected to be displaced once the pipeline becomes fully operational.

The pipeline is also expected to reduce operating costs from the displacement of emulsion hauling and equipment rentals
and most importantly provide egress for many future drilling locations in the Sunburst, Ellerslie and Glauconitic Formations
which will improve full cycle economics of the Bantry field development plan. The pipeline will also reduce emissions from
the displacement of trucking, improve the Company’s safety and spill prevention profile and reduce flare volumes for each
new well tied-into the pipeline as opposed to the allowable flare limits under current regulations.

Calima continues to evaluate strategies with respect to the Calima Lands to unlock shareholder value through development,
partnerships, farm-out or outright sale. A consolidation of the Montney in northeast British Colombia has occurred and
with rising gas prices, currently above US$4 mcf in North America, the Calima Lands provide significant optionality.

During  the year ended  31  December  2021,  the  Calima  Group’s  independent  reserve  engineers  completed  an  updated
evaluation of the Brooks and Thorsby assets. The Company has confirmed 20.4 million boe of proved plus probable reserves
and an additional 4.0 million boe of possible reserves in place (24.4 mmboe total)1. The Company proved plus probable
reserves remained relatively  consistent,  declining  by  approximately  5%  compared  to  the  30  June  2021 reserve  report,
primarily due to production in the second half of 2021 and moderate technical revisions following the 2021 development
program.

On a boe basis, 10 million boe of proved plus probable reserves are located at Brooks and 10.4 million located at Thorsby.

During  the  year  ended  31  December  2021,  the  Calima  Group’s  independent  reserve  engineers  completed  an  updated
evaluation of the Tommy Lakes Montney assets. The Company has confirmed 160.5 million boe of contingent resources
(un-risked) and an additional 126.3 million boe of prospective resources in place1.

The Company’s prospective resources declined by 58% in 2021 primarily due to the acreage expiries relating to Montney
leases  that  the  Company  elected  not to extend  through  further  drilling  and  delineation  activities.  The  majority  of  the
expiries related to the Company’s prospective resources located in the peripheral northern sections of the play.

The estimated quantities of hydrocarbons that may potentially be recovered by the application of a future development
project  relate  to  undiscovered  accumulations.    These  estimates  have  both  an  associated  risk  of  discovery  and  a  risk  of
development. Further exploration appraisal is required to determine the existence of a significant quantity of potentially
moveable hydrocarbons.

Despite an improvement in commodity prices, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $37.6 million for the year
ended 31 December 2021. The valuation was primarily based on the estimated net present value of after-tax, future cash
flows from the contingent resources (un-risked) discounted at 36%, reflective of the assessed funding and development
risks associated with the long-dated resource play.

1 Refer to announcements dated 28 March 2022 (“Brooks and Thorsby Reserves Update 2022” and “Montney Resource Update 2022”). The Company is not
aware of any new information or data  that materially affects the information included in the referenced ASX announcement and confirms that all material
assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the relevant market announcements continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Liquidity and capital resources

The following table summarises the change in the Company’s cash balance during the year ended 31 December 2021:

Proceeds from the second quarter equity fundraising were utilised primarily to acquire Blackspur and fund a portion of the
Company’s capital investment program subsequent to the Acquisition, along with funds flow from operations generated
during the year.

The  Calima  Group  holds  a  C$27.0 million  demand  revolving  credit  facility  with  a  Canadian  chartered  bank  (the  “Credit
Facility”). A borrowing base review was completed during the fourth quarter of 2021 and, based on the Lenders’ updated
interpretation of the Company’s reserves and future commodity prices, the Credit Facility was increased by C$2.0 million.
The Credit Facility is scheduled for its next borrowing base review on or before 31 May 2022.

As at 31 December 2021, the Calima Group had available funding of A$1.7 million which primarily consisted of available
credit under Credit Facility, partially offset by the Company’s working capital deficit at the end of the quarter:

The Company’s  net  debt  at 31 December 2021  was  A$27.8  million  compared  to  previous 2021 exit  guidance  of  A$19.4
million. Growth in the Company’s net debt during the fourth quarter of 2021 was due to capital cost increases in the Leo
drilling program, delays in start-up of the three Leo wells, the acceleration of the 2022 drilling program at Brooks to drill
Pisces #1 and #2 wells in December, as well as additional pipe inventory purchased for drilling Gemini #5-7 and Pisces #3.

13

While the Leo wells were recovering water and frac fluid in September and October, actual oil and gas production from the
Leo wells did not commence until mid-November and the two Pisces wells were brought on stream in late January 2022.
Further, two of the Leo wells required well interventions in order to optimize subsurface pumping systems and this was
compounded by extremely cold weather in December which restricted well and facility operations during the month, which
impacted the Company’s fourth quarter volumes.

On 17 February 2022, the Calima Group completed a private-placement equity financing arrangement with investors for
gross proceeds of A$20.0 million. The Company plans to utilise the majority of the proceeds to reduce the amounts drawn
under the Credit Facility and complete the H1 2022 capital investment program. Combined with anticipated free cash flows
during the first half of 2022, the Company is now expecting to exit June 2022 with net debt of C$2-5 million, including the
impact of the financing arrangement under the Pipeline Agreement.

The following table summarises the projected change in the Company’s net debt during six months ended 30 June 2022:

Hedging program

The  Company’s  risk  management  portfolio  consists  of  instruments  that  are  intended  to  mitigate  Calima’s  exposure  to
commodity price risks in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin, consisting primarily of the US$ WTI benchmark price
and the C$ WCS differential to WTI.

Calima executes a risk management program which is designed to limit downside exposure to market volatility, ensure a
sufficient level of cash flows to service debt obligations and ensure capital is available to fund the Company’s development
and operational programs.

The Company’s risk management contracts consisted of the following position as at 31 December 2021:

(1) Weighted average volumes and prices are presented over the number days in the year (365 days in 2022).

Further hedges (and put contracts) have been layered on in January 2022 to minimise exposure to volatility and ensure
debt reduction targets are achieved. In the current energy price cycle, it is intended that post payout production will be
unhedged and provide exposure to commodity price volatility, subject to the lender’s requirement to hedge 50% of volumes
(net of royalties) for the forward 12-month period should drawdowns exceed 50% over an extended period.

14

In a rising energy cycle, hedging losses will occur on that portion of the production hedged; however, with hedges set on a
staggered basis as capital is committed, the Company views this strategy as an appropriate safeguard for the balance sheet
to limit downside risk. Calima generally hedges oil price exposure on a forward rolling one year basis. The Company’s current
policy  is to  generally  hedge  ~50%  of  forecast  oil  production  (net  of  royalties)  for  the  upcoming  four  quarters.  Upon
committing capital to drill a well, the Company will hedge sufficient volume (~5 - 7 months) to secure pay-out of the well.

The Company had ~45% of forecast production volumes (net of royalty volumes) hedged for Q1-Q3 2022 on a WTI and WCS
differential basis, leaving the opportunity to layer on additional WTI and WCS hedges as wells are drilled and production
comes on stream. Going forward, as production increases and as drilling locations are committed to, additional WTI and
WCS  differential  hedges  will  be  layered  in  to  reduce  the  impact  of  the  WCS  differential  widening,  or  the  price  of  WTI
decreasing.

The following tables summarise the Company’s hedge positions over time, based on outstanding contracts in place as 31
December 2021:

OUTLOOK

The Company has sanctioned an H1 2022 capital budget of A$19 million for 6.5 net wells in the Brooks and Thorsby areas:

 Three horizontal Glauconitic development wells (Pisces #1-#3) (Pisces #1 and #2 were drilled in December)

o All three wells were brought on stream during the first quarter of 2022

 Three Sunburst wells (Gemini #5-#7) (one vertical stratigraphic test well, two horizontal Sunburst appraisal wells)

o All three wells were brought on stream during the first quarter of 2022

 One horizontal Sparky well (0.5 net) in the North Thorsby area (Leo #4)

o The well was drilled in the first quarter of 2022; completion and tie-in is scheduled for H2

15

The Sunburst wells are conventional oil wells and therefore do not require fracture stimulation. The stratigraphic vertical
test well (Gemini #5) confirmed the existence of Sunburst sand within a previously undeveloped portion of the field and its
objective was to delineate further drilling locations for future work programs. The Company pipeline connected these wells
into the Company’s field infrastructure network via the new Pipeline during the first quarter of 2022 and the production is
being processed at the 2-29 oil battery.

The Calima Group holds a 50% working interest in the prospective North Thorsby area adjacent to the Company’s core
Thorsby development area in central Alberta. The Company spudded the Leo #4 (50% net well) in the North Thorsby area
on 20 January 2022 and reached TD on 27 January 2022.

The following table summarises the Company’s current outlook for the six months ended 30 June 2022:

WTI, -US$13.50 WTI/WCS differential, C$3.50/Gj AECO, 1.25 CAD/USD for the first half of 2022.

(2) EBITDA is adjusted for Jan-June 2022 expected realised hedging losses of C$4 million. EBITDA is based on commodity prices stated above, corporate average royalty rates
of 19%, and operating costs and G&A assumptions that are based off historical financial performance. Interest,  taxes and abandonment expenses are cashflow items
excluded from EBITDA and estimated at C$0.5 million for Jan – June 2022.

(3) Refer to Advisories and Guidance for additional information regarding the Company’s GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. The net debt range included in the table

above includes the anticipated impact of the first quarter equity fundraising and the strategic infrastructure financing arrangement.

Calima anticipates production in H1 2022 will be between 4,000 – 5,000 boe/d. Growth in production compared to 2021 is
primarily the result of volumes from the three Sparky Formation wells at Thorsby (Leo #1-3) and 6 of the 6.5 wells drilled
during December and January 2022.

The Company expects to generate Adjusted EBITDA of C$28-C$33 million for the six months ended 30 June 2022 based on
commodity price assumptions and production forecasts presented in the table above. The capital program is anticipated to
be funded with cash provided by operating activities, proceeds from the first quarter equity financing and funding under
the Company’s Credit Facility.

Included in the capital budget is the cost of the new Pipeline (C$4.3 million) which is borne by the Company’s midstream
capital provider under the terms of the Pipeline Agreement. The cost of the Pipeline is expected to be offset by the savings
related to the elimination of trucking of emulsion from some wells, and  the elimination of other rental costs related to
single well batteries; the real benefit will accrue from the production growth afforded in the Brooks area and reduction in
future operating costs together with the ESG benefits obtained.

Including the impact of net proceeds received from the first quarter equity financing, anticipated free cash flow and the
arrangement under the H1 2022 strategic infrastructure development, the Calima Group’s net debt is expected to decline
to C$2-C$5 million by mid-year 2022 following completion of the H1 22 capital development program.

Introduction
The Directors and key management personnel have authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the
activities of the Group. Remuneration levels for Directors and key management personnel are competitively set to attract
and retain appropriately qualified and experienced Directors and executives.

The Board is responsible for remuneration policies and practices. The Board assesses the appropriateness of the nature and
amounts of remuneration of officers and employees on a periodic basis and makes recommendations to the Board. The
Board,  where  appropriate,  seeks  independent  advice  on  remuneration  policies  and  practices,  including  remuneration
packages and terms of employment. No independent advice was received in the current year. The Calima Group’s securities
trading policy regulates dealings by Directors, officers and employees in securities issued by the Group. The policy imposes
trading restrictions on all Directors, key management personnel and employees of the Group and their related companies
who possess inside information.

Remuneration strategy
At the Board’s discretion, the Calima Group’s remuneration practices are made available to the Company’s directors, senior
management, employees, consultants and other contractors that may perform work on behalf of the business (collectively,
the  “Service  Providers”).  The  remuneration  structures  are designed  to  attract  suitably  qualified  candidates,  reward  the
achievement  of  strategic  objectives,  and  achieve  the  broader  outcome  of  creation  of  value  for  shareholders.  The
remuneration structures take into account a number of factors, including length of service, particular experience of the
individual concerned, and overall performance of the Group.

The Calima Group has the following remuneration plans in place A summary of these Plans is set out below:









A Fixed  remuneration  Plan that  provides  for  salaries  or  fees  paid  to  Service  Providers  in  respect  of  baseline
employment, consulting or contracting activities provided to the Calima Group,
A Short-Term Incentive Plan (“STIP”) that provides for cash bonuses to be paid annually based on a combination of
individual and corporate performance over the previous year,
A Stock Option Plan (“SOP”) that provides for short-term or long-term equity incentives that  generally vest over
certain continuous employment conditions; and
A Performance  Rights  Plan  (“PRP”) that  provides  for  long-term  equity  incentives  that  may  vest  upon  on  the
achievement of certain performance-based thresholds or continuous employment conditions

The Board is of the opinion that these incentive plans achieve the following outcomes:






Attract and retain staff and management to pursue the Group’s strategy and goals;
Align the interests of the Group’s employees with that of the Company’s shareholders;
Provide fair and reasonable reward for past individual and Group performance; and
Incentivise service providers to deliver future individual and Group performance.

Fixed remuneration
Fixed remuneration consists of the base remuneration paid to directors, offices and employees of the Calima Group (which
is calculated on a total cost  basis and  includes any Fringe Benefit  Tax charges related to employee benefits), as well as
employer  contributions  to  superannuation  funds.  Remuneration  levels  are  reviewed  annually  by  the  Board  where
applicable. The process consists of a review of Group and individual performance, length of service, relevant comparative
remuneration internally and externally and market conditions.

Short Term Incentive Plan (STIP)
The STIP provides for the payment of discretionary cash bonuses to Service Providers of the Calima Group on an annual
basis in respect of their performance and the overall performance of the Company during the previous financial year. The
STIP establishes maximum  bonus levels  as  a  percentage  of salary by  grade  of employee and  a  guideline  framework  for

21

calibrating  the  actual  bonus  against  the  maximum  according  to  certain  parameters  of  individual  and  corporate
performance. However, all bonus payments are entirely at the discretion of the Board and there are no contractual bonus
entitlements under the STIP.

Stock Option Plan (SOP)
The SOP provides for the issuance of stock options to Service Providers of the Calima Group on a periodic basis generally to
provide a long-term equity incentive. Stock options are issued for nil consideration and generally carry an exercise strike
price that is either at or above the Company’s share price at the date of grant. Subject to the satisfaction of the vesting
conditions  given  to  eligible  participants,  each  exercised  stock  option  will  be  eligible  to  receive  the  equivalence  of  one
common  share.  In  satisfaction  of  the  share  issuance  from  treasury,  the  option  holder  pays  cash  consideration  to  the
Company equal to exercised strike price.

The primary non-market-based vesting condition for the Company's SOP units issued to employees is generally continuous
employment.  However,  the  Calima  Group  may  also  issue stock  options to non-employee  related  Service  Providers  with
vesting terms that align to performance term under the service contract. Stock options grants may also be subject to certain
other market-based on non-market-based performance conditions, at the Board discretion.

During  the  second  quarter  of  2021,  Calima’s  Board  approved  18.1  million  stock  options  for  grant  to  certain  Canadian
Officers, Directors and employees of Calima and Blackspur following the closing of the Blackspur Acquisition (post share
consolidation basis). The primary vesting condition of the stock options is continuous employment and 1/3 of the options
vest each year over three years and  are exercisable at $0.20 per unit within five years from the date of grant. As at 31
December 2021, the Calima Group recognised 2.3 million forfeitures under the SOP in respect of departing staff members.

The Calima Group also had 1.0 million stock options outstanding from previous incentive grants issued in 2017 (on a post
consolidation basis). The Management Options were issued for nil cash consideration in two classes, Class A and Class B.
The Class A Stock Options are exercisable at $1.80 per unit once vested and the Class B stock options are exercisable at
$2.40 per unit once vested. The Management Options will vest, subject to completion of 18 months’ continuous service, on
satisfaction of at least two of the following three conditions:





The VWAP for Shares for any period of 30 consecutive trading days being above $1.80;
The Company raising more than $5 million at an average price of $1.80; and
The Company’s market capitalisation  exceeding $50  million  (based  on  the  VWAP for Shares  for any  period  of 30
consecutive trading days).

The Management Options will also vest immediately following a change of control that occurs at an average price per share
greater than $1.80/share. All unvested stock option grants issued in 2017 on expire on 25 August 2022.

Performance Rights Plan (PRP)
The PRP provides for the issuance of stock options to Service Providers of the Calima Group on a periodic basis generally to
provide a long-term equity incentive. The PRP is open to any eligible persons who are full-time or permanent part time
employees of the Company, or a related body corporate which includes directors, the company secretary and officers or
other such persons as the Board determines to be eligible to receive such grants under the PRP. The Performance Rights
are issued  for nil  cash  consideration  and  no  consideration will be payable upon the  vesting  of the  Performance  Rights.
Subject to the satisfaction of the vesting conditions given to eligible participants, each PRP unit will be eligible to receive
the equivalence of one common share.

Vesting conditions, if any, are determined by the Board from time to time and set out in individual offers for the grant of
Performance Rights. Performance rights are subject to certain market-based on non-market-based performance conditions,
at the Board discretion, which generally include a share price target and/or continuous employment obligations.

During the year ended 31 December 2021, Calima approved 7.3 million performance rights (on a post-consolidation basis)
for grant to certain Officers and Directors of Calima. The vesting conditions of the performance rights were as follows:

 4.8 million Class A/B rights become vested and exercisable following continued service of the holder for a period of
two years retroactively from the date of their appointment. As at December 31, 2021, all of the units were vested.
Should these performance rights not have immediately vested due to the continued service condition, they would
have vested subject to a VWAP of shares trading on the ASX at least 1.0 cent over the 20 consecutive trading days (on
days in which shares actually traded).

 2.5  million Class  C rights  become  vested  and  exercisable  if  VWAP  of  shares  trades  over  A$0.30/share  over  20

consecutive days on or before 30 April 2026. As December 31, 2021, all of the units were unvested.

The Calima Group also had 973,000 performance rights outstanding from previous incentive grants issued in 2017 (on a
post consolidation basis). The units are subject to 18-month continuous service requirement and on satisfaction of at least
two of the following three conditions:

 The VWAP for Calima shares for any period of 30 consecutive trading days being above $3.00;

 Calima raising more than $5 million (excluding the Public Offer) at an average price of $3.00; and
 Market capitalisation exceeds $50 million (VWAP for Calima shares for any period of 30 consecutive trading days).
The vesting conditions for the units were not met in 2021 and no performance rights were redeemed during the year. The
2017 performance rights expire in August 2022 should the vesting conditions not be achieved.

Non-executive Directors
There are no termination or retirement benefits for non-executive Directors (other than statutory superannuation). The
maximum available pool of fees is set by shareholders in general meeting and is currently $350,000 per annum.

Service contracts
Remuneration and other terms of employment for Executive Directors and other key management personnel are formalised
in service agreements and letters of employment (conditions of employment). All parties continue to be employed until
their employment is terminated. For executive employment contracts, at a minimum, employees must provide one months’
notice  of  departure  and  the  employer  must  provide  at  least  three-months’  notice (without  cause).  For  non-executive
terminations, at a minimum, employees must give two-weeks’ notice and the employer must give statutory required notice.
The Company may make payment in lieu of notice. Key management personnel are entitled to receive, on termination of
employment, statutory entitlements of vested annual and long service leave, together with post-employment benefits. Any
options or rights awarded but not vested at the time of resignation will be cancelled unless the Board advises otherwise at
its own discretion.

Employment  contracts  do  not  prescribe  how  remuneration  levels  are  modified  year  to  year.  Remuneration  levels  are
reviewed each year with consideration of employment market conditions, changes in the scope of the role performed by
the employee and changes in remuneration policy set by the Board. Details of the remuneration of the Directors of the
Company and key management personnel are set out in the following tables below.

Key management personnel (“KMP”)
The  key  management  personnel  of  the  Company  in  2021  included  the  following  executive  directors  and  non-executive

Remuneration overview
Amounts recognised in respect of remuneration plans are detailed in the table below. The STIP, SOP and PRP are considered
performance related. Although the stock options grants have no market-based performance conditions, they were issued
at an exercise price that was out of the money at grant date, which encourages the employees to remain with the Company
and work towards achieving share price growth. The value of options and rights shown in the tables below represent the
vesting  expense,  measured  in  accordance  with  Australian  Accounting  Standards,  for  awards  granted  in  the  current  or
previous financial years.

The  Corporations  Act  requires  disclosure  of  the  Calima  Group’s  remuneration  policy  to  contain  a  discussion  of  the
Company’s earnings, performance, and the effect of the performance on shareholder wealth during the current reporting
period and the four previous financial years.

The following table below provides a five-year financial performance summary to the end of 31 December 2021:

Growth in the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA and share price in 2021 was primarily due to the Blackspur Acquisition and an
improved  global  commodity  price  environment,  particularly  for crude oil.  Net  losses  sustained in  2020  and  2021  were
primarily related to impairment losses recognised on certain investments in undeveloped exploration and evaluation assets
made prior to 2020. Growth in Calima’s net debt in 2021 primarily relates to Credit Facility draws that were acquired as
part of Blackspur Acquisition and the utilisation of that financing arrangement to fund the Company’s 2021 capital program.

The Class A and Class B performance rights become vested and exercisable following continued service of the holder for a period of two years retroactively from the date of their original appointment.
As at December 31, 2021, all of the units were vested. Should these performance rights not have immediately vested due to the continued service condition, they would have vested subject to a VWAP
of shares trading on the ASX at least 1.0 cent over the 20 consecutive trading days (on days in which shares actually traded).
The Class C performance rights become vested and exercisable if VWAP of shares trades over A$0.30/share over 20 consecutive days on or before 30 April 2026. As at December 31, 2021, all of the
units were unvested.
The primary vesting condition of the stock options is continuous employment and 1/3 of the options vest each year over three years and are exercisable at $0.20 per unit within five years from the
date of grant. As at December 31, 2021, all of the units were unvested.

The payment of STIP bonuses are at the discretion of the Board, having regard to the overall performance of the Company
and the performance of the individual. Bonuses paid in 2021 were issued following the successful closing of the Blackspur
Acquisition. There were no bonuses paid in 2020.

Calima awarded Class A/B performance rights to certain members of the organisation during the first quarter of 2021. The
awards  all  became  vested  in  2021  primarily  in  satisfaction  of  previous  employment  services  rendered  and  for  the
recognition of growth in the Company’s share price since 2019, following the execution of the Blackspur Acquisition.

The Class C performance rights and stock options that were issued to Management and the Board in 2021 were granted
primarily in  order  to retain  KMP  and incentivise future short-term  and  long-term  share  price  performance.  The

24

performance-based  compensation  arrangements  will  vest  subject  to  the  satisfaction  of  certain service  terms  and
performance criterion as disclosed in this remuneration report.

Calima Energy Limited (“Calima” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Australian Corporations Act 2001. Calima
is a production-focused energy company pursuing the exploration and  development of oil and natural gas assets in the
Western  Canadian  Sedimentary  Basin. On 30 April  2021,  Calima  completed the acquisition  of  Blackspur  Oil  Corp.
(“Blackspur”), a company that is currently developing oil and natural gas plays at Brooks and Thorsby in southern and central
Alberta, Canada. Calima also holds an undeveloped Montney acreage position in northeastern British Columbia, Canada.

Calima’s  Australian  head  office  is  domiciled  at  4/46-250  Railway  Parade,  West  Leederville  WA  6007. The  Company’s
Canadian headquarters are located at 1000, 205 - 5 Avenue SW Calgary AB T2P 2V7. Calima’s voting common shares are
publicly traded on the Australian Stock Exchange under the symbol “CE1”. These audited consolidated financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2021 (the “annual financial statements”) were approved and authorised by Calima’s Board
of Directors on March 29, 2022.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These general-purpose financial statements consist primarily of the financial records of Calima and its two wholly-owned
Canadian subsidiaries, Blackspur and Calima Energy Inc. (the “Calima Group”). Blackspur owns and operates the Brooks and
Thorsby  oil  assets  and  Calima  Energy  Inc. owns  and  operates the undeveloped  Tommy  Lakes Montney  acreage.  The
operating results of Blackspur for the months of May through December 2021 have been consolidated into these annual
financial statements. Blackspur’s operating results prior to the date of the acquisition have been excluded. All intercompany
transactions have been eliminated.

These annual financial  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with Australian  Accounting  Standards  and
interpretations issued  by  the Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  and  the  Corporations  Act  2001. Compliance  with
Australian  Accounting  Standards  ensures  that  these  annual  financial  statements  comply  with  International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Consequently, these annual
financial  statements  are  compliant  with  IFRS. Calima  is  a  for-profit  entity  for  the  purposes  of  preparing  the  financial
statements. The statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which
31

are measured at their estimated fair market value. These annual financial statements follow the same accounting policies
that were utilised to prepare the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, other
than  for the  utilisation  of  certain other accounting  policies and  presentation  formats  that  have  been utilised  to
accommodate the consolidation of Blackspur’s financial results. The details of these changes are discussed directly below.

Certain  comparative  figures  in  these annual financial  statements  have  been  adjusted  to  conform  with  current  period
presentation. Effective January 1, 2021, the Company revised its accounting policy to present the consolidated statement
of cash flows using the indirect method, a change from the direct method previously applied. The indirect method provides
more relevant information on items not affecting cash and a reconciliation of net income from continuing operations to net
cash flows from operating activities directly on the statement. The change in accounting policy was adopted retrospectively,
therefore, the comparative periods are presented using the indirect method. There were no changes  to the Company’s
total cash flows arising from operating, investing and financing related activities as a result of the presentation changes.

The Company has reclassified certain comparative profit or loss and financial position account groupings in order to conform
with current period presentation. The Company disaggregated $0.3 million in oil and gas operating results on the income
statement to provide users more detail regarding the components of operating results. The Calima Group also elected to
aggregate its oil and natural gas related assets on the statement of financial position by function in order to streamline the
statement  of  financial  position presentation.  A  detailed  breakdown  of  the  components  of  oil  and  natural  gas  assets  is
included in the notes (see Note 8 for further details). The Company has also rounded the comparative information to the
nearest thousand of dollars in order to conform with current period presentation. There were no changes to the Company’s
asset and liability balances or net income (loss) as a result of these presentation modifications.

The functional currency of Calima is the Australian dollar and the functional currency of both Blackspur and Calima Energy
Inc. is the Canadian dollar. All amounts reported have been in presented in Australian dollars (A$ or AUD) unless otherwise
noted. References to C$ denotes Canadian dollars and US$ denotes United States dollars.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Oil and natural gas assets

Oil and natural gas assets are measured at historical cost less accumulated depletion, depreciation and impairment (net of
reversals). The Company begins capitalising oil and natural gas exploration costs after the right to explore has been obtained
and includes land acquisition costs, geological and geophysical activities, drilling expenditures and costs incurred for the
completion and testing of exploration wells. The Calima Group capitalises all subsequent investments attributable to the
development of its oil and natural gas assets if the expenditures are considered a betterment and provide a future benefit
beyond  one  year.  The  Company's  capitalised  costs  primarily  consist  of  pad  construction,  drilling  activities,  completion
activities, well equipment, processing facilities, gathering systems, pipelines and employee costs directly attributable to
development.

Capitalised costs are classified as exploration and evaluation assets (“E&E”) if technical feasibility and commercial viability
have not yet been established. Technical feasibility and commercial viability are generally deemed to exist when proved
and probable reserves are present. Generally, the acquisition of undeveloped mineral leases are initially capitalised as E&E
assets and will be expensed if the lease expires, becomes impaired or management determines that no further exploration
or evaluation activities are expected on the lease prior to expiry. If technical feasibility and commercial viability of E&E
assets  are  established,  the  E&E  assets  are  tested  for  impairment  and  reclassified  to property,  plant  and  equipment
(“PP&E”). Costs are capitalised directly as PP&E if they are attributable to the development of oil and natural gas reserves
after technical feasibility and commercial viability have been achieved.

The  majority  of  PP&E  is  depleted  using  the  unit-of-production  method  relative  to  the  Company's  estimated  total
recoverable  proved  plus  probable  reserves. For  the  purposes  of  the  depletion  calculation,  natural  gas  reserves  and
production  are converted  to  barrels  of oil  equivalent  based  upon the  relative  energy content  (6:1).  The depletion  base
consists  of  the  historical  net  book  value  of  capitalised  costs,  plus  the  estimated  future  costs  required  to  develop  the
Company's estimated recoverable proved plus probable reserves. The depletion base excludes E&E and the cost of assets
that are not yet available for use in the manner intended by Management.

Impairment

The Calima Group reviews its E&E and PP&E for indicators of impairment at each reporting period. For the purposes of the
review, the Company’s assets are grouped into cash-generating units ("CGUs") which are defined as the smallest group of
assets generating cash inflows that are largely independent from the cash inflows of other asset groups. The Calima Group’s
PP&E are currently held in two CGUs (Brooks and Thorsby). The majority of the Company’s E&E assets are held in one CGU
(Tommy Lakes Montney E&E). If impairment indicators exist, the CGU is tested for impairment and a loss is recognised to
the extent that the carrying amount exceeds its estimated recoverable value.

The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined as the greater of its fair-value-less-costs-of-disposal ("FVLCOD") and its
value-in-use ("VIU"). FVLCOD is based on the estimated recoverable amount from the sale of an asset or CGU in an arm’s

32

length transaction between knowledgeable parties, less the cost of disposal. In assessing VIU, the estimated future cash
flows  of  the  CGU  are  discounted  to  their  present  value  using  a  pre-tax  discount  rate  that  reflects  current  market
assessments of the time value of money, risks specific to the asset and overhead costs associated with operating the CGU.
The recoverable amount of the Calima Group’s CGUs is generally based on after-tax discounted future cash flows from the
Company’s proved plus probable reserves, contingent resources or by observable third-party land transactions adjacent to
the Company's assets (Level 3 valuations).

Following the recognition of an impairment loss, the Company reviews its CGU for indicators of impairment reversal at each
subsequent reporting period. If there is observable evidence that the value of the CGU has increased significantly since the
previous impairment loss, Calima performs a test for impairment reversal by comparing an updated estimate of the CGU’s
recoverable  amount  to  its  current  carrying  amount.  If  the  Company  concludes  that  there  has  been  a  material  and
substantive change in the estimates used to assess the CGU’s recoverable amount, an impairment loss will be reversed to
the extent that the recoverable amount exceeds its carrying value, less the incremental value of depletion and depreciation
that otherwise would have been recognised by the Company, had the impairment loss not previously occurred.

Business combinations

The Company has recognised the acquisition of Blackspur utilising the acquisition method. The cost of the acquisition was
measured  at  the  fair  market  value  of  the  consideration  paid  and  liabilities  assumed  under  the  terms  of  the  business
combination agreement. Identifiable assets and liabilities acquired are generally measured and recognised at their fair value
and any deferred tax assets or liabilities arising from the business combination were recognised at the acquisition date. The
differential  between  the  consideration  paid  and  assessed  fair  market  value  of  the  assets  and  liabilities  assumed  is
recognised as either goodwill or a gain on acquisition. The remeasurement of acquired restoration provisions to the risk-
free  discount  rate is recognized  in  profit  or  loss  as  incurred. Transaction  costs related  to business  combinations are
expensed.

Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, deposits, risk management
contracts, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, other indebtedness, investments and a credit facility. The Calima Group’s
financial  instruments  are  measured  on  the  consolidated statement  of  financial  position at  either  fair  market  value  or
amortised cost. The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments generally approximate their fair market value.

The  fair  value  measurement  of  the  Company's  financial  instruments  are  classified  according  to  the  following  hierarchy
which is ranked based on the amount of publicly observable inputs available to value the instruments:

 Level 1 - Quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the reporting date
 Level 2 - Values are based on various inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value of money
and volatility factors, which are observed in the marketplace but are not readily observable in an actively traded market

 Level 3 - Valuation inputs that are not based on observable market data

The  following  table  summarises  the  method  by  which  the  Calima  Group  measures  its  financial  instruments  on  the
consolidated statement of financial position and the corresponding hierarchy rating for their derived fair value estimates:

The Calima Group’s risk management contracts are measured at fair market value at each reporting period. Realised gains
and  losses  from  the  settlement  of  risk  management  contracts  as  well  as  unrealised  gains  and  losses  from  the
remeasurement of these financial instruments to fair market value at each reporting period are recognised in net income
(loss)  as  incurred. Transaction  costs  related  to  fair  value  through  profit  and  loss  financial  instruments  are  immediately
expensed. Financial  instruments  recognised  at  amortised  cost are  accreted  through  net  income  (loss)  towards  their
settlement  value  over  time.  Transaction  costs  related  to  financial  liabilities  measured  at  amortised  costs  are  initially
capitalised and then amortised to net income (loss) over the life of the related host instrument.

Any  impairment  loss  of  financial  assets  is  determined  by  assessing  and  measuring  the  expected  credit  losses  of  the
instruments at each reporting period. The Calima  Group measures expected credit losses using a lifetime expected loss
allowance model for all trade receivables and contract assets. The credit-loss model groups receivables based on similar
credit risk characteristics and the number of days past due in order to estimate and recognise bad debt expenses. When

33

measuring expected credit losses, the Company considers a variety of factors including: evidence of the debtor's financial
condition, history of collections, the term of the receivable and any changes in economic conditions.

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and other short-term liquid investments that carry a maturity term of
three months or less and presented as a current asset on the statement of financial position. All other financial instruments
are presented as a current asset or liability on the statement of financial position if they are expected to be settled within
12 months of the statement of financial position date unless there is an irrevocable right to defer settlement beyond 12
months from the statement of financial position date.

Foreign currency translations

With respect to transactions and balances of the Calima Group that are denominated in a foreign currency other than their
respective functional currency, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the statement
of financial position date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average foreign exchange rates during the period.
Non-monetary  items  are  translated  at the  foreign  exchange  rate  in  effect  at  the  historical  date  of their  last fair  value
measurement. The corresponding  realised and unrealised gains  and losses from these  foreign currency  translations are
recognised in net income (loss) as incurred.

For financial reporting purposes, the presentation currency of the Calima Group is the Australian dollar. Accordingly, the
Canadian  dollar  functional  currencies  of  Blackspur  and  Calima  Energy  Inc.  are  translated  to  the  Australian  dollar
presentation currency upon consolidation. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate during the
year and assets and liabilities are translated at the prevailing exchange rates at the reporting date.

The corresponding unrealised gains and losses stemming from the remeasurement of the subsidiary functional currencies
to  the  presentation  currencies at  each  reporting  period are recognised as  other  comprehensive  income by  Calima.  The
corresponding cumulative  foreign  currency  translation  reserve  is  reflected  in  shareholder’s  equity  on  the  consolidated
statement of financial position until such time the subsidiary is disposed of, at which point, the balance is reclassified to net
income (loss).

Revenue recognition

Revenues primarily relates to the sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids ("NGLs") in Canada from the Company's
Brooks  and Thorsby assets. The products are classified and presented in the financial statements based on the physical
characteristics  of the  hydrocarbons  at the  time of sale.  Liquids  extracted  from the  natural  gas stream  are presented  as
NGLs. Revenues from liquids, natural gas and NGL sales are presented net of third-party royalty interests held by private
entities or government authorities.

The Calima Group measures revenue from the sale of oil, natural gas and NGLs at the amount the Company expects to
receive, which is based on an agreed upon transaction volume and price with the customer. Revenue is recognised when
the Calima Group transfers control of products or provides services to a customer at the amount to which the Company
expects to receive. If the consideration includes a variable component, the Group estimates the amount of the expected
consideration receivable. Variable consideration is estimated throughout the contract and is constrained until it is highly
probable  a  significant  revenue  reversal  in  the  amount  of cumulative  revenue  recognised  will  not  occur. In  most  cases,
revenue is recognised when the hydrocarbons have been delivered to the customer. Payment terms with the Company's
customers are generally within 30 days following the month of product delivery.

The  Calima  Group  recognises  realised  and  unrealised  gains  and  losses  from  the  Company’s  risk  management  contracts
which are remeasured to fair market value at each reporting period (refer to the financial instruments accounting policy).
The Company also earns other income primarily from interest on its cash and cash equivalent balances held. Excluded from
revenues are amounts received in respect of government grants and subsidies that are instead reflected as a reduction to
the related expenditure to which the recoveries are intended to compensate.

Provisions

Provisions are liabilities that are recognised when the Calima Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result
of a past event and it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation. The Calima Group’s provisions
primarily  consist  of  restoration  provisions  associated  with  the  dismantling,  decommissioning  and  site  disturbance
remediation activities for the Company's oil and natural gas assets.

At initial recognition, the Company recognises a restoration provision asset and corresponding liability on the statement of
financial position. Restoration provisions are measured at the present value of expected future cash outflows required to
settle  the  obligations.  Restoration  provisions  are  inflated  based  on  the  Bank  of  Canada's  target  inflation  rate  and  then
discounted to net present value using a risk-free discount rate. The liabilities are accreted upwards towards their estimated
settlement  value over the expected life of the assets in order to reflect the time value of money. Restoration provision
assets are depleted over the remaining useful life of the related assets in order to reflect the associated decommissioning
costs in net income (loss) over time. Restoration provision assets and liabilities are remeasured at each reporting period

34

primarily to account for any changes in estimates or discount rates. Actual expenditures incurred to settle the obligations
reduce the liability.

Income taxes

The Calima Group’s income taxes primarily relate to deferred income taxes that are recognised in respect of the Company’s
earnings, which are expected in future years under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and Income Tax Assessment Act (Australia).

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognised on temporary differences between the current carrying value of
assets  and  liabilities  for  financial  reporting  purposes  and  their  corresponding  tax  values.  Deferred  income  taxes  are
determined  on  an  undiscounted  basis  using  tax  rates  that  have  been  enacted  or  substantively  enacted  and  that  are
expected to apply in future years when the temporary differences reverse. A deferred tax asset is only recognised to the
extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will arise, such that the available carry-forward tax deduction can be
utilised to shelter the taxable profits from income tax. The recoverability of deferred tax assets is assessed by comparing
the Calima Group’s tax pools to the future undiscounted cash flows from the Company's proved plus probable reserves,
less estimated financing and general and administrative expenses.

Income taxes are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except when they relate to share capital, in which
case, the taxes are recognised directly in shareholders equity. Current income tax expense (recovery) is the expected cash
tax payable or receivable on the Company's taxable income (loss) during the year, using tax rates that have been enacted
or substantively enacted.

Stock-based compensation

The Calima Group’s stock-based compensation expense primarily relates to stock options and performance rights that are
granted to employees, service providers and directors of the Company.

Grants issued under the Company’s plans are initially measured at their estimated fair market value and are expensed over
the vesting periods under the terms of the compensation arrangement. Upon exercise, the plans allow the holder of an
award to receive common shares or cash at the Company's discretion. The Company’s plans are all accounted for as equity-
settled share-based compensation arrangements based on their anticipated settlement option. Accordingly, when equity
compensation units are exercised or released, any consideration received, together with the expense previously recognised
as contributed surplus, is recorded as an increase to share capital.

The  primary non-market-based  vesting  condition  for  all  of  the  Company's  stock-based  compensation  plans  is  generally
continuous employment. An estimated forfeiture rate is applied to the valuation of the equity units over the vesting period
and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual number of equity awards that ultimately vest. In some cases, performance
rights are also granted with certain other market-based or non-market-based vesting conditions which are determined by
the Company's Board of Directors. The fair market value of these performance rights at the date of grant is initially adjusted
to reflect the probability of these possible outcomes.

Stock  options  and  performance  rights  are  valued  at  the  date  of  grant  primarily  utilising  a  Black-Scholes  pricing  model.
Performance rights that are subject to a minimum share price vesting condition are valued utilising a binomial barrier pricing
model. Performance rights that vest immediately at issuance are valued at the Company's share price at the date of grant.

The stock-based compensation expense attributable to performance factors that are dependent upon market conditions
are  not  subsequently  adjusted  for  actual  results.  The  stock-based  compensation  expense  attributable  to  performance
factors dependent upon non-market conditions are subsequently adjusted for actual results.

Leases

At the inception of a contract, the Calima Group assesses if an agreement contains a lease based on whether the contract
conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For all in-scope
lease arrangements, a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability is initially recognised at the commencement date
of  the  lease  and  measured  at  the  net  present  value  of  all  future  non-cancellable  lease  payments.  The  payments  are
discounted  using  the rate implicit  in  the  lease unless  that rate  is not readily  determined, in which  case,  the Company's
incremental borrowing rate is utilised. The estimated lease term consists of all non-cancellable periods under the contract
and includes periods covered by an extension or termination option if the Calima Group is reasonably certain that it will
exercise the option.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated to net income (loss) over the expected utilisation period of the underlying assets using
the straight-line method. The depreciation of right-of-use assets that are utilised in respect of development activities are
initially capitalised to PP&E and then depleted to net income over the remaining life of the developed assets once they are
ready  for  use  in  the  manner  intended.  Lease  liabilities  are  accreted  upwards  toward  their  settlement  value  over  the
expected life of the contract in order to reflect the cost of borrowing under the indebted contract. The interest portion of
the lease payment is recognised as an operating activity in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The principal portion
of the lease payment reduces the lease liability and is reflected as a financing activity in the consolidated statement of cash

35

flows. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are remeasured at each reporting period to reflect any contract modifications
or reassessments that impact the anticipated remaining cash outflows under the contract.

Jointly operated assets

The Calima Group’s oil and natural gas activities include jointly operated oil and natural gas assets and liabilities. These
annual financial  statements  only  include  the  Company’s  share  of  these  jointly  operated  assets  and  liabilities  and  a
proportionate share of the related revenue and expenses.

Per share information

Basic per share information is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
year. Diluted per share information is calculated using the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the year, adjusted for the number of shares which could have had a dilutive effect on net income during the year
had outstanding in-the-money equity compensation units been exercised.

Oil and natural gas assets

Oil and natural gas assets are grouped into CGUs based on their ability to generate largely independent cash flows. The
determination  of the  Calima  Group’s CGUs are subject to  judgment as the Company  is required to define and establish
these asset groupings based on their specific nature and characteristics in a reasonable manner. The Calima Group applies
judgment  when  determining  the  classification  of  its  oil  and  natural  gas  assets  as  either  E&E  or  PP&E  assets because  it
requires the Company to define and establish thresholds for when a particular project has achieved technical feasibility and
commercial viability. When the Calima Group assesses its CGU for indicators of impairment or impairment reversal at each
reporting period, judgment is applied in establishing the qualitative and quantitative thresholds that are used to assess if
an indicator is present, such that an impairment test is then required.

Liquidity and access to Credit Facility

As at 31 December 2021, the Calima Group’s net debt was A$27.8 million (Note 16). The Company also had a net working
capital deficiency of $30.5  million (current liabilities of $41.8 million in excess of current assets of $11.3 million), which
included C$20.0 million drawn under a C$27.0 million demand revolving credit facility with a Canadian chartered bank (the
“Credit Facility”).

Borrowings under the Credit Facility incur interest at a market-based interest rate plus an applicable margin which varies
depending  on  Blackspur’s net  debt  to  cash  flow  ratio. As a  demand  facility,  the  Credit  Facility  does  not  have  a  specific
maturity date which means that the lender could demand repayment of all outstanding indebtedness or a portion thereof
at any time. If such an event were to occur, the Calima Group would be required to source alternative sources of capital or
sell assets to repay the indebtedness.

The Calima Group manages liquidity risk by complying with the covenants of the Credit Facility agreement, however, there
can be no assurance that the amount or terms of the revolving credit facility will be maintained at the next annual borrowing
base review. Based on current cash flow forecasts which utilise the Company’s reserves, and the continued support of the
Lender since the inception of the Credit Facility in April 2015, the Calima Group expects to discharge its liabilities in the
normal course of business, the Credit Facility will remain available for the foreseeable future and the lender will not demand
repayment of the amount drawn under Credit Facility.

A borrowing base review was completed by the Company’s lender during the fourth quarter of 2021 and, based on updated
interpretation of the Company’s reserves and future commodity prices, the Credit Facility was increased by 8%, or $2.0
million from the previous borrowing base of $25.0 million. On 17 February 2022, the Calima Group also completed a private-
placement equity financing arrangement with investors for gross proceeds of A$20.0 million. Proceeds from the transaction
effectively reduced the Company’s net debt to approximately A$13.5 million as at 28 February 2022. The Company utilized
the majority of the proceeds to reduce amounts drawn under the Credit Facility and complete the first half 2022 capital
investment program.

Based on these events, the Directors have reasonable grounds to believe that the Calima Group will continue as a going
concern. The Credit Facility is scheduled for its next annual borrowing base review on or before 31 May 2022 and is expected
to be based on the Lenders’ interpretation of the Group’s reserves and future commodity prices, consistent with prior years.

Other significant judgements

The  determination  of  the  Company’s  income  tax  and  royalty  expenses  require  interpretation  of complex  laws  and
regulations and are subject to judgement. Judgement is also applied when interpreting contractual commitments to assess
whether or not they contain a lease arrangement.

Significant estimates

Oil and natural gas assets

Amounts recorded  for  the  depletion  of  oil  and  natural  gas  assets  rely  on  estimates  and  assumptions  regarding  the
Company's proved plus probable reserves and future development costs. Fair value estimates that are utilised in a test for
impairment or impairment reversal often rely upon estimates and assumptions regarding the future cash flows from the
Calima Group’s proved plus probable reserves as well as the recoverable resale value of undeveloped exploratory acreage.

Reserve  estimates  are  primarily  based  on the  Calima  Group’s reserve  reports  prepared  by  an  independent third-party
engineering firm. The reports include estimates for the quantity of oil and natural gas volumes, recovery factors, production
rates,  future commodity  prices,  discount  rates,  and  future  royalty,  operating  and  capital  costs.  These  estimates  were
prepared by experts in accordance with the standards contained in the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook but are
still  subject  to  measurement  uncertainty. The  Calima  Group may  also utilise  observable  third-party  land  transactions
adjacent to the Company's assets for estimating the value of undeveloped exploration acreage. Actual results may differ
from the Company's estimates.

Other significant estimates

Estimates and assumptions are utilised to assess the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern which includes future
cash  flow  projections  for  operating,  investing  and  financing  related activities. The  value  of  the  Company's  restoration
provisions is based on estimates and assumptions regarding current legal requirements, future costs to settle the provisions
and  the  expected  timing  of  the  remediations. The  valuation  of  level  2  and  level  3  financial  instruments  are  subject  to
measurement uncertainty because there is no observable actively traded market and, therefore, estimates are required to
estimate their fair market value at each reporting period for the purposes of valuation or disclosure.

The Company records deferred income tax assets and liabilities using income tax rates that are enacted or substantively
enacted at the statement of financial position date, which are subject to change. The recoverability of loss carryforwards,
investment tax credits and royalty incentives require estimates and assumptions regarding future operating results that will
allow the Company to ultimately utilise those assets. All tax filings are also subject to audit and potential reassessment.

The Calima Group's stock-based compensation expense is subject to measurement uncertainty as a result of estimates and
assumptions related to volatility, forfeiture rates, expected life, market-based vesting conditions and non-market-based
vesting conditions. Estimates and assumptions are utilised in the Company's cash flows forecasts in assessing the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern, including the impacts of COVID-19 on future cash flows and access to credit.

5. ACQUISITION OF BLACKSPUR OIL CORP.

On 30 April 2021, Calima completed a plan of arrangement with Blackspur to acquire 100% of its issued and outstanding
common shares for total cash and share consideration of $22.4 million and a requisite reduction of Blackspur’s outstanding
Credit Facility draws of $28.0 million (the “Blackspur Acquisition”). The following table summarises the allocation of the
consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by Calima:

In  order  the  finance  the  Acquisition,  Calima  completed  an  equity  fundraising  by  issuing  5.43  billion  common  shares  at
$0.007/share for gross proceeds of $38.0 million before transaction costs (Note 14). Blackspur shareholders received $22.4
million of cash and share consideration. Pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition, Blackspur also issued a share subscription
to Calima for total proceeds to Blackspur of $28.0 million. The proceeds from Calima were then used to repay borrowings
under its revolving and non-revolving credit facilities (Note 10).

The fair market value of the property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) was primarily based on the after-tax discounted future
cash flows from Blackspur’s proved plus probable reserves utilising a fair-value-less-cost-of-disposal methodology (Level 3
valuation). Cash flows were based on Blackspur’s 2020 reserve report which was prepared by an independent third-party
engineering firm. The report was updated internally to reflect the passage of time and conditions present as at 30 April
2021, including revised price forecasts. The following table summarizes the price forecast included in the valuation:

Cash flows were discounted at rate of approximately 36%. A 1% reduction in the discount rate would have resulted in an
increase to PP&E of approximately $2.2 million and reduction to the net gain on acquisition of approximately $1.7 million,
net of deferred taxes.

The uninflated, undiscounted restoration provision acquired with Blackspur was estimated to be $17.2 million. The liability
was initially recognised by Calima at a fair market value of $9.4 million utilising an inflation rate of 2% and a discount rate
of 10.5%. The restoration provision was then subsequently remeasured during the second quarter of 2021 using a risk-free
discount rate to align the Blackspur liability with Calima’s existing measurement policy for restoration provisions (Note 13).

Calima recognised a deferred income tax asset of $11.4 million reflecting the after-tax value of Blackspur’s carry-forward
tax pools in excess of the corresponding carrying amount of the assets acquired. Recognition was based on the assessment
that it was probable the acquired tax pools would be utilised from future taxable profits of Blackspur. As a result of the
Blackspur Acquisition, Calima recognised a net gain on acquisition $11.4 million, reflecting the fair market value of assets
acquired and the recognition of associated deferred income tax assets, in excess of the consideration paid.

For  the year ended 31  December 2021, the Calima Group recognised oil and natural gas sales of $47.2 million and net
income of $6.6 million from Blackspur operations, which were incurred since 30 April 2021. The following table summarises

6. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

As at 31 December 2021, the Calima Group held cash and cash equivalents of $3.4 million (31 December 2020 - $1.7 million).
The Company is exposed to credit risk associated with its cash and cash equivalent balances held by third party institutions.
The credit risk associated with the Calima Group’s cash and cash equivalents was considered low as the Company’s balances
were all held with three large chartered banks located in Australia and Canada.

The Calima Group is exposed to collection risk from receivables associated with the Company’s oil and natural gas sales.
The customer base primarily consists of integrated oil and natural gas producers, midstream and downstream companies
and energy traders. The Company manages credit risk by principally transacting with high-quality counterparties.

38

As  at 31  December 2021, credit risk  from  outstanding  accounts  receivable  was  considered  low  given  the  history  of
collections and because greater than 80% of outstanding Company’s outstanding receivables from oil and natural gas sales
were held with four investment-grade counterparties. Substantially all of the Company’s accounts receivable from oil and
natural gas sales were collected within 30 days following the month of sale or settlement date and there were no material
amounts past due as at 31 December 2021 or 2020.

(1) During the year ended 31 December 2021, the Calima Group recognised non-cash capitalised costs of $1.7 million primarily related to restoration provisions added in

respect of the Company’s drilling and development activities (Note 13).

The Calima Group’s PP&E primarily consists of the Brooks and Thorsby CGUs located in Southern and Central Alberta that
were acquired as part the Blackspur Acquisition on 30 April 2021 (Note 5). The Company’s exploration of evaluation assets
(“E&E”) primarily consists of capitalised  costs  associated  with undeveloped Tommy  Lakes Montney  acreages  in North-
eastern British Columbia.

During the year ended 31 December 2021, the Calima Group recognised land expiry losses of $10.9 million, primarily in
respect of the Company’s Tommy Lakes Montney acreages for which there were no drilling plans in the near term that were
necessary to extend the license tenure.

Following a comprehensive strategic review during the fourth quarter of 2021 and the absence of near-term development
plans, the Calima Group determined that indicators of impairment were present as at 31 December 2021 for the residual
carrying value of the Tommy Lakes Montney assets which indicated that the remaining carrying value of the E&E assets
may not be fully recoverable.

The Calima Group performed an impairment test on Tommy Lakes Montney CGU, primarily utilising estimated after-tax,
discounted  future  cash  flows (un-risked) from the  CGU’s contingent  resources  in  order  to  estimate  the  CGU’s  FVLCOD
valuation. As  part  of  the  review,  the  Company  also  utilised observable  third-party  land  transactions  adjacent  to  the
Company's assets as proxy to estimate fair market value (Level 3 valuations). The results of the impairment test indicated
that  the  net  book  value  of  the  CGU  exceeded  its  recoverable value, and  the  Company  recognised  an  impairment  loss
provision of $37.6 million. Following the impairment loss, the carrying value of the Tommy Lakes CGU was $15.9 million.

Discounted after-tax cash flows from Contingent Resources were calculated with a two percent inflation rate and discount
rate of approximately 35%. A 5% change in the discounted cash flows that were utilised in the Company's impairment test
would result in an increase or decrease to the impairment loss of approximately $1.3 million. An increase in the discount
rate of 100 basis points (1%) would result in further impairment loss of approximately $3.2 million.

There were no indicators of impairment identified for the Company’s Brooks and Thorsby CGUs as at 31 December 2021.

Calima’s outstanding right-of-use assets (“ROU asset”) relates to the leasing of four storage tanks that service produced
water and flowback at the Company’s Montney exploration well sites in North-eastern BC. The four-year lease agreement
commenced  on  January  1,  2020  and  Calima  recognised  a  right-of-use  asset  and  corresponding  lease  liability  on  the
consolidated statement of financial position for the discounted value of the minimum lease payments. The lease was valued
utilising a weighted average incremental borrowing rate of 6.5%. As at December 31, 2021, the undiscounted cash flows
required to settle Calima’s lease liability was $0.48 million.

As  at  31  December  2021,  $17.9 million  of  oil  and  natural  gas  assets,  primarily  consisting  of  E&E,  were  not  subject  to
depletion and depreciation as they were not ready for use in the manner intended (2020 - $60.7 million).

(1) The Credit Facility contains certain covenants that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things: incur additional indebtedness; create or permit liens to exist; and

make certain dispositions and transfers of assets.

As at 31 December 2021, the Calima Group held a C$27.0 million demand revolving credit facility with a Canadian chartered
bank (the “Credit Facility”). A borrowing base review was completed during the fourth quarter of 2021 and, based on the
Lenders’ updated interpretation of the Company’s reserves and future commodity prices, the Credit Facility was increased
by 8%, or C$2.0 million from the previous borrowing base of C$25.0 million in place as at 30 April 2021. The Credit Facility
is scheduled for its next borrowing base review on or before 31 May 2022.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility incur interest at a market-based interest rate plus an applicable margin which varies
depending on Blackspur’s net debt to cash flow ratio. Interest charges are between 150 bps to 350 bps on Canadian bank
prime borrowings and between 275 bps and 475 bps on Canadian dollar bankers’ acceptances. Any undrawn portion of the
demand facility is subject to a standby fee in the range of 20 bps to 45 bps. Security for the credit facility is provided by a
$150.0  million demand  debenture. A  1%  change  in  the  interest  rate  under  the  Credit  Facility  would  result  in  higher
annualised interest expense of $0.2 million based the balance outstanding as at 31 December 2021.

Under the terms of the facility, a financial covenant must be maintained. The Company must not permit the working capital
ratio, as defined by the bank, to fall below 1:1. The bank defines the working capital ratio as the ratio of (i) current assets
plus any undrawn availability under the facility to (ii) current liabilities less any amount drawn under the facilities. For the
purposes of the covenant calculation, risk management contract assets and liabilities are excluded. At 31 December 2021,
the Company was in compliance with its banking covenants.

The Calima Group is exposed to commodity price fluctuations associated with the production and sale of oil and natural
gas. The Company executes a consistent and mechanical risk management program which is designed primarily to reduce
cash flow volatility, protect a sufficient level of cash flows to service debt obligations and fund a portion of the Company’s
development and operational programs. The Calima Group generally hedges oil pricing exposure on a forward rolling one
year basis. The Company’s current policy is to hedge 50% of forecasted oil production for the upcoming four quarters.

The  Company’s  risk  management  portfolio  consists  of  instruments  that  are  intended  to  mitigate  the Calima  Group’s
exposure  to  commodity  price  risks  in  the  Western  Canadian  Sedimentary  Basin  consisting  primarily  of  the  US$  WTI
benchmark price and the C$ WCS differential to US$ WTI.

The Company’s risk management contracts consisted of the following positions as at 31 December 2021:

In 2019, the Calima Group entered into a three-year debt arrangement to borrow C$1.0 million. The facility incurred C$0.2
million of interest over the term and was repayable through monthly remittance of net cash flows from the Company’s
Paradise Well (official designation: Boundary 5-1-86-15 00/11-01-08615W6/0). At the end of the term, any residual amount
not settled through net cash flows from the well was payable in cash upon maturity. During the second quarter of 2021,
the outstanding  loan  balance  of A$0.9  million was  extinguished  through  the issuance  of  124.8  million Calima common
shares to the lender (6.24 million common shares issued on a post share consolidation basis) (Note 14).

The Calima Group’s restoration provisions reflect the estimated cost to dismantle, abandon, reclaim and remediate the
Company's oil and  natural  gas  assets  at  the  end  of  their  useful  lives.  As  at 31  December 2021,  the  total  estimated
undiscounted, uninflated cash flows required to settle the Calima Group’s asset retirement obligations was approximately
$24.9 million (31 December 2020 – $4.1 million). These liabilities are anticipated to be incurred over the next 30 years.

During the second quarter of 2021, Calima increased the restoration provision by $9.1 million primarily to remeasure the
acquired Blackspur liabilities using a risk-free discount rate to align with the Company’s existing measurement policy for
restoration provisions.

As at 31 December 2020, the Company valued the restoration provision by utilising a risk-free rate of 1.8% (31 December
2020 – 0.25%) and an inflation rate of 2.0% (31 December 2020 – 0.7%). A 100-basis point (1%) increase in the discount
rate reduces the Company’s restoration provision by $(3.8) million (1% decrease: $4.7 million).

On April 28, 2021, the Company completed an equity financing for gross proceeds of $38.0 million, issuing 5.4 billion shares
at $0.007 per share. Funds raised from the equity financing were primarily utilised to complete the plan of arrangement
associated with the Blackspur acquisition, which included a cash payment of $5.2 million to Blackspur shareholders and a
requisite reduction of Blackspur’s Credit Facility by $28.0 million. The Company also incurred $2.5 million of transaction
costs associated with the equity financing.

On 30 April  2021,  Calima  issued  legacy  Blackspur  shareholders  2.46  billion  Calima  common  shares  as  part  of  the
consideration  for  the  business  combination (Note 5).  During  the  year,  the  Company  issued 223.2 million  shares  in
satisfaction of various consulting services, Calima Officer and Director fees as well as the repayment of an outstanding loan
(Note  12). On  30  August  2021,  the  shareholders  of  Calima  approved  a  consolidation  of  the  Company’s  issued  and
outstanding common shares and equity compensation units on 20:1 basis of consolidation.

16. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Calima Group’s objective for managing capital is to maintain a strong statement of financial position in order to provide
financial liquidity to fund ongoing development programs.

The  Calima  Group  manages  liquidity  risk by complying  with  debt  covenants  and designing  field  development  plans  in
conjunction  with  production,  commodity  price  and  available  credit  forecasting  which  provides  the  Company  with  an
opportunity to fund its investments in oil and natural gas assets and expenses within cash flows or available sources of
capital on hand. Calima also manages liquidity risk by preserving borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility.

The Calima Group’s business plan targets a trailing 12-month ratio of net debt to adjusted funds flow from operations of
less than 1.5 in a US$70.00 WTI and C$3.50 AECO 5A commodity price environment. The ratio was 2.0 for the 12 months
ended  December  31, 2021.  The  Company  requires  a  period  of  allocating  free  cash  flow  to  net  debt  reduction  for  the
Company to reach this target.

Management believes the Company has sufficient funding to meet near-term liquidity requirements. As at December 31,
2021, the Calima Group had A$7.5 million of available credit under the Credit Facility. On 17 February 2022, the Calima
Group also completed  a private-placement equity  financing  arrangement with  investors for  gross  proceeds  of  A$20.0
million (Note 28). Near-term development activities are anticipated to be funded by the Company's funds flow, cash on

44

hand, proceeds from the equity financing or draws under the Credit Facility (Note 10). In the near term, the Company plans
to utilise any funds flow in excess of investments in oil and natural gas assets to affect a combination of net debt reduction
and production growth.

The following tables reconciles the Company’s net debt and adjusted funds flow from operations as at December 31, 2021:

The Company utilises net debt as an important measure to assess the Company's liquidity by incorporating long-term debt,
lease  liabilities  and  working  capital. Adjusted  funds  flow  from  operations  is  utilised  as  a  measure  of  operational
performance and cash flow generating capability which impacts the level and extent of funding available for capital project
investments,  reduction  of  net  debt or  returning  capital  to  shareholders. These  measures  are also consistent  with  the
formulas prescribed under the Company’s Credit Facility covenants.

Net debt and adjusted funds flow from operations are not standardised measures and may not be comparable with the
calculation of similar measures by other companies without also taking into account any differences in the method by which
the calculations are prepared.

(1) Estimated interest expense in 2022 based on amounts drawn as at the statement of financial position date using an effective interest of 3.4% prescribed under the Credit

Facility.

The Credit facility, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, risk management contract liabilities and the long-term portion
of lease liabilities are recognised on Calima’s consolidated statement of financial position. The interest on the Credit facility
is recognised  as  a  liability  on  the statement  of  financial  position once it has  been incurred,  in  accordance  with  IAS 1 -
Presentation of Financial Statements.

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Calima Group sanctioned a first half 2022 capital budget of C$19.5 million for continued
development of the Brooks and Thorsby asset areas. The program commenced in December 2021.

The Calima Group is currently involved in legal claims of up to $1.0 million arising in the normal course of business. While
the final outcome of such events cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not currently anticipate that these
events will have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.

vest each year over three years and are exercisable at $0.20 per unit within five years from the date of grant. During the
year, 3.9 million stock options were forfeited due to staff departures.

The Company granted 2.5 million options (on a post share consolidation basis) to the Company’s finance brokers, forming
a  portion of  the  compensation  arrangement for  the lead  manager in  respect  of the  28  April  2021  equity  financing
placement. The broker options are exercisable at $0.20 per unit on or before 30 April 2024 and became fully vested on 30

During the year ended 31 December 2021, Calima approved 7.3 million performance rights (on a post share consolidation
basis) for grant to certain Officers and Directors of Calima. The vesting conditions of the performance rights were as follows:
 4.8 million rights become vested and exercisable following continued service of the holder for a period of two years
retroactively from the date of their original appointment. As at December 31, 2021, all of the units were vested.
 2.5 million rights become vested and exercisable if VWAP of shares trades  over A$0.30/share over 20 consecutive

days on or before 30 April 2026. As December 31, 2021, all of the units were unvested.

With respect to  the 1.0  million performance rights granted  in  2017 (on  a post share consolidation basis), the units are
subject to 18-month continuous service requirement and on satisfaction of at least two of the following three conditions:

 The VWAP for Calima shares for any period of 30 consecutive trading days being above $3.00;
 Calima raising more than $5 million at an average price of $3.00; and
 Market capitalisation exceeds $50 million (VWAP for Calima shares for any period of 30 consecutive trading days).

The vesting conditions for the units were not met in 2020 or 2021 and no performance rights were redeemed during the

Calima’s investments  in  its  two  Canadian  subsidiaries,  Blackspur  and  Calima  Energy  Inc.,  are  exposed  to  fluctuations  in
foreign  currency  exchange  rates  between  the  Australian  and  Canadian  dollar.  A  foreign  currency  translation  reserve  is
utilised to record exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of these foreign subsidiaries.

A  10%  increase  in  the  Canadian  dollar  relative  to  the  Australian  dollar  results  in  an  overall  unrealised  gain  in  other
comprehensive income of approximately A$8.5 million relating to net assets of the subsidiaries (10% decrease: unrealised
loss of A$7.7 million). A 10% increase in the Canadian dollar relative to the Australian dollar results in an unrealised loss in
other comprehensive income of approximately A$3.2 million relating to the financial instruments held by the subsidiaries
(10% decrease: unrealised gain of A$2.9 million).

28. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Strategic infrastructure development

On 31 January 2022 the Calima Group entered into a long-term financing arrangement with a strategic infrastructure and
midstream company to construct a pipeline connecting the Company’s 02-29 battery in the northern portion of its Brooks,
Alberta asset base to its wells, lands, and  gathering system in the southern portion of the asset base. The pipeline was
completed and brought on stream during the first quarter of 2022.

Construction of the pipeline is being financed by Pivotal and the estimated cost of the project is C$4.3 million. Blackspur
shall be the sole owner of the pipeline and will repay the capital costs to construct the pipeline over a term of seven years
at a 12% cost of financing with monthly payments of approximately C$76,000, to be finalised based on total installed costs
of the pipeline as determined once the pipeline is commissioned and in service. Blackspur retains the right to payout the
financing on 180 days written notice starting on the third anniversary of the agreement, subject to an early termination
penalty provision.

Equity fundraising

On 17 February 2022, the Calima Group completed a private-placement equity financing arrangement with investors for
gross proceeds of A$20.0 million. The Company expects to have incurred approximately $1.3 million in share issuance costs
in respect of the equity fundraising and will be capitalised to share capital in accordance with the Company’s accounting
policy. The Company plans to utilise a portion of the proceeds to reduce the amounts drawn under the Credit Facility and
complete the H1 2022 capital investment program.

Independent auditor’s report 
To the members of Calima Energy Limited 

Report on the audit of the financial report 

Our opinion 

In our opinion: 

The accompanying financial report of Calima Energy Limited (the Company) and its controlled entities 
(together the Group) is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

(a)  giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 31 December 2021 and of its 

financial performance for the year then ended  

(b)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001. 

What we have audited 
The Group financial report comprises: 

• 
• 
• 
• 

• 

• 

the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021 

the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended

the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year then 
ended

Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under 
those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial 
report section of our report. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for 
our opinion. 

Independence 
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the 
Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional & Ethical 
Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence 
Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also 
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

Our audit approach 

An audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from 
material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if 
individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of 
users taken on the basis of the financial report. 

We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an 
opinion on the financial report as a whole, taking into account the geographic and management 
structure of the Group, its accounting processes and controls and the industry in which it operates. 

Materiality 

• 

For the purpose of our audit, we used overall Group materiality of A$1,530,000, which represents 
approximately 1% of the Group’s total assets. 

•  We applied this threshold, together with qualitative considerations, to determine the scope of our audit 
and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements on 
the financial report as a whole. 

•  We chose Group total assets because, in our view, it is the benchmark against which the performance of the 
Group is most commonly measured and reflects the continued internal and external focus on growth and 
development of the Group’s oil and natural gas assets. 

•  We utilised a 1% threshold based on our professional judgement, noting it is within the range of commonly 

acceptable thresholds.  

Audit Scope 

•  Our audit focused on where the Group made subjective judgements; for example, significant accounting 

estimates involving assumptions and inherently uncertain future events. 

Key audit matters 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the financial report for the current period. The key audit matters were addressed in the 
context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do 
not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Further, any commentary on the outcomes of a 
particular audit procedure is made in that context. We communicated the key audit matters to the 
Board of Directors. 

 
  
 
Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Availability of funding for further 
exploration and development activities 
Refer to Note 4, 10 

We considered the appropriateness of the going concern 
assumption used in preparing the financial report by 
performing the following procedures, amongst others: 

As described in Note 4 to the financial report, the 
financial statements have been prepared by the 
Group on a going concern basis, which contemplates 
that the Group will continue to meet its 
commitments, realise its assets and settle its 
liabilities in the normal course of business. 

As at 31 December 2021, Blackspur has drawn 
C$20.0 million (A$21.7 million) of a C$27.0 million 
demand revolving credit facility with a Canadian 
chartered bank (the “Credit Facility”). As a demand 
facility, the Credit Facility does not have a specific 
maturity date which means that the lender could 
demand repayment of all outstanding indebtedness 
or a portion thereof at any time. If such an event 
were to occur, the Group would be required to 
source alternative sources of capital or sell assets to 
repay the indebtedness. 

As described in Note 4, the Group expects that the 
Credit Facility will remain available for the 
foreseeable future and the lender will not demand 
repayment of the amount drawn under the Credit 
Facility. 

Assessing the appropriateness of the Group’s basis 
of preparation for the financial report was a key 
audit matter due to its importance to the financial 
report and the level of judgement involved in 
forecasting future cash flows for a period of at least 
12 months from the audit report date (cash flow 
forecasts). 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

evaluated the Group’s assessment of its ability 
to continue as a going concern, including 
whether the period covered is at least 12 
months from the date of the audit report and 
that relevant information of which we are 
aware from the audit was included, 

inquired of management and the directors 
whether they were aware of any events or 
conditions, including beyond the period of the 
assessment that may cast significant doubt on 
the Group’s ability to continue as a going 
concern, 

agreed the cash receipts from the capital 
placements undertaken during the year to the 
relevant bank statements, 

compared the key underlying data and 
assumptions in the Group’s cash flow forecast 
to internal reporting and historical cash 
outflows, 

developed an understanding of the key forecast 
expenditure items, including the amounts that 
are contractually committed and required to 
be paid to maintain the good standing of the 
Group’s oil and natural gas assets as well other 
material future capital expenditures, and 

evaluated whether, in view of the requirements 
of Australian Accounting Standards, the 
financial report provides adequate disclosures 
about these events or conditions. 

 
  
 
 
 
Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

Acquisition of Blackspur Oil Corp 
Refer to Note 5, 8 

We performed the following procedures, amongst 
others:  

On 30 April 2021, Calima Energy Limited completed 
the acquisition of Blackspur Oil Corp (Blackspur) for 
consideration of A$22.4 million paid to Blackspur 
shareholders and a A$28.0 million requisite 
reduction of Blackspur’s Credit Facility. 

The acquisition was a key audit matter because it 
was a significant transaction for the year given the 
financial and operating impact on the Group. In 
addition, the Group made complex judgements 
when accounting for the acquisition including 
identifying all assets and liabilities of the newly 
acquired subsidiaries and estimating the fair value 
of each item for initial recognition by the Group, 
particularly the oil and natural gas assets. 

• 

• 

obtained the board approved purchase 
contract to develop an understanding of the 
nature of the acquisition and the consideration 
payable. 

considered how the Group estimated the fair 
value of the assets and liabilities in the 
acquisition. In particular, we focused on 
significant judgements made by the Group in 
assessing the identification and fair value of oil 
and gas natural assets acquired, over which we 
performed the following procedures: 

• 

• 

• 

considered the competence and 
capabilities of the Group’s experts and 
together with PwC valuation experts 
evaluated the methods, significant 
assumptions and data used to estimate 
the reserves acquired. 

evaluated the appropriateness of the 
method used in determining the fair 
value of oil and natural gas assets 
acquired by reference to Australian 
Accounting Standards. 

evaluated the appropriateness of 
significant assumptions used in 
determining the fair value of oil and 
natural gas assets. This included: 

• 

• 

comparing forecast benchmark 
commodity prices with third 
party industry forecasts. 

together with PwC valuation 
experts, comparing the discount 
rates applied in the model used 
to estimate the fair value of oil 
and natural gas assets to other 
third-party transactions. 

 
  
Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

• 

• 

compared the underlying data used by 
the Group in the determination of the 
fair value of oil and natural gas assets 
to the internally and externally 
prepared reserve reports. 

tested the mathematical accuracy of the 
model used to estimate the fair value of 
oil and natural gas assets. 

• 

evaluated the reasonableness of the disclosures 
made in Note 5 to the financial statements in 
light of the requirements of Australian 
Accounting Standards. 

Carrying value of exploration and 
evaluation 
assets 
Refer to Note 8 

We evaluated the Group’s consideration of internal and 
external sources of information in assessing whether 
indicators of impairment or reversal of impairment 
existed. 

Australian Accounting Standards require an entity 
to assess throughout the reporting period whether 
there is any indication that an asset may be 
impaired. If any such indication exists, an entity 
shall estimate the recoverable amount of the asset. 

At 31 December 2021, the Group concluded that 
there were impairment indicators for the Tommy 
Lakes Montney cash generating unit (CGU). 
Impairment testing was undertaken as outlined in 
Note 8, resulting in land expiry losses of A$10.9 
million, primarily in respect of acreages for which 
there were no drilling plans in the near term, and an 
impairment to the CGU of A$37.6 million, 
calculated utilising after-tax discounted future cash 
flows derived from the CGU’s contingent resources 
to estimate the recoverable amount of the Tommy 
Lakes Montney CGU. 

We performed the following procedures, amongst 
others: 

• 

• 

• 

examined lease expiries in the Tommy Lakes 
Montney CGU and recalculated the land expiry 
loss recognised by the Group. 

considered the competence and capabilities of 
the Group’s experts and together with PwC 
valuation experts evaluated the methods, 
significant assumptions and data underlying 
the contingent resource report used by the 
Group to determine the recoverable amount of 
the CGU. 

tested how the Group determined the 
recoverable amount of the Tommy Lakes 
Montney CGU, which included the following: 

Key assumptions, judgements and estimates, used 
in the formulation of the Group’s impairment 
testing of the oil and gas properties are disclosed in 
Note 8. 

•  Evaluated the appropriateness of the 

methods used by the Group in making 
these estimates by reference to 
Australian Accounting Standards. 

 
  
Key audit matter 

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

The assessment of indicators of impairment and the 
impairment testing process are complex and highly 
judgemental and are based on assumptions which 
are impacted by expected future performance and 
market conditions. 

Accordingly, this matter was considered to be a key 
audit matter. 

•  Compared the underlying data used by 
the Group in the determination of the 
recoverable amount of the CGU to the 
externally prepared contingent 
resource reports. 

•  Evaluated the appropriateness 
significant assumptions used in 
developing the underlying estimates, 
including: 

• 

• 

comparing forecast benchmark 
commodity prices with third 
party industry forecasts. 

together with PwC valuation 
experts, comparing the discount 
rates applied in the impairment 
testing model to other third-
party transactions. 

• 

• 

assessed whether the impairment charge 
recorded in the financial statements agreed to 
the Group’s underlying impairment testing 
model. 

evaluated the reasonableness of the disclosures 
made in Note 8, including those regarding the 
significant assumptions and sensitivities to 
changes in such assumptions, in light of the 
requirements of Australian Accounting 
Standards. 

Other information 

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the 
information included in the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2021 but does not include 
the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

 
  
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information 
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial 
report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. 

If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of 
this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we 
are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report 

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a 
true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 
and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the 
financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to 
fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease 
operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free 
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that 
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an 
audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material 
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material 
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic 
decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the 
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: 
https://www.auasb.gov.au/admin/file/content102/c3/ar1_2020.pdf. This description forms part of 
our auditor's report.

Meaning
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest and financing expenses, income taxes, depletion,
depreciation and amortisation, and adjusted to exclude certain non-cash, extraordinary and non-recurring items
primarily relating to gains on acquisition, gains and losses on financial instruments, transaction and advisory costs,
exploration expenses and impairment losses. Calima utilises adjusted EBITDA as a measure of operational
performance and cash flow generating capability. Adjusted EBITDA impacts the level and extent of funding for
capital projects investments or returning capital to shareholders.
Adjusted working capital is comprised of current assets less current liabilities on the Company's statement of
financial position and excludes the current portions of risk management contracts and credit facility draws.
Adjusted working capital is utilised by Management and others as a measure of liquidity because a surplus of
adjusted working capital will result in a future net cash inflow to the business which can be used for future funding,
and a deficiency of adjusted working capital will result in a future net cash outflow which will require a future draw
from Calima’s existing funding capacity.
the process of permanently closing and relinquishing a well by using cement to create plugs at specific intervals
within a well bore
Available funding is comprised of adjusted working capital and the undrawn component of Blackspur’s credit
facility. The available funding measure allows Management and other users to evaluate the Company’s liquidity.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility incur interest at a market-based interest rate plus an applicable margin which
varies depending on Blackspur’s net debt to cash flow ratio. Interest charges are between 150 bps to 350 bps on
Canadian bank prime borrowings and between 275 bps and 475 bps on Canadian dollar bankers’ acceptances. Any
undrawn portion of the demand facility is subject to a standby fee in the range of 20 bps to 45 bps. Security for the
credit facility is provided by a C$150 million demand debenture
carbon dioxide equivalent
a well that produces gas or oil from a conventional underground reservoir or formation, typically without the need
for horizontal drilling or modern completion techniques
a device or facility located along a natural gas pipeline that raises the pressure of the natural gas flowing in the
pipeline, which in turn compresses the natural gas, thereby both increasing the effective capacity of the pipeline
and allowing the natural gas to travel longer distances
consolidated, average rate decline for net production from the Company’s assets
Exit production is defined as the average daily volume on the last week of the period
Oil and gas sales net of royalties, transportation and operating expenses
a financial arrangement which allows the Company to protect against adverse commodity price movements, the
gains or losses of which flow through the Company’s derivative settlements on its financial statements
represents Hedged Adjusted EBITDA less recurring capital expenditures, asset retirement costs and cash interest
expense
represents free cash flow as a percentage of the Company’s total market capitalisation at a certain point in time
Funds flow is comprised of cash provided by operating activities, excluding the impact of changes in non-cash
working capital. Calima utilises funds flow as a measure of operational performance and cash flow generating
capability. Funds flow also impacts the level and extent of funding for investment in capital projects, returning
capital to shareholders and repaying debt. By excluding changes in non-cash working capital from cash provided by
operating activities, the funds flow measure provides a meaningful metric for Management and others by
establishing a clear link between the Company's cash flows, income statement and operating netbacks from the
business by isolating the impact of changes in the timing between accrual and cash settlement dates.
owned midstream expenses; the costs incurred to transport hydrocarbons across owned midstream assets

third-party gathering and transportation expense; the cost incurred to transport hydrocarbons across third-party
midstream assets
general and administrative expenses; may be represented by recurring expenses or non-recurring expense
non-exponential with subtle multiple decline rates; hyperbolic curves decline faster early in the life of the well and
slower as time increases
The LMR (Liability Management Ratio) is determined by the Alberta Energy Regulator (“AER”) and is calculated by
dividing Blackspur’s deemed assets by its deemed liabilities, both values of which are determined by the AER.
lease operating expense, including base LOE, production taxes and gathering & transportation expense
a segment of the oil and gas industry that focuses on the processing, storing, transporting and marketing of oil,
natural gas, and natural gas liquids
Net debt/working capital surplus is calculated as the current and long-term portions of Calima’s credit facility
draws, lease liabilities and other borrowings net of adjusted working capital. The credit facility draws are calculated
as the principal amount outstanding converted to Australian dollars at the closing exchange rate for the period.
Net debt is an important measure used by Management and others to assess the Company's liquidity by
aggregating long-term debt, lease liabilities and working capital.
hydrocarbon components of natural gas that can be separated from the gas state in the form of liquids

a measure of financial liquidity and flexibility calculated as Net Debt divided by Hedged Adjusted EBITDA

a  share  of  production  after  all  burdens,  such  as  royalty  and  overriding  royalty,  have  been  deducted  from  the
working interest. It is the percentage of production that each party actually receives
total lease operating expense (LOE) plus gathering & compression expense
Operating netback is calculated on a per boe basis and is determined by deducting royalties, operating and
transportation from oil and natural gas sales, after adjusting for realised hedging gains or losses. Operating netback

is utilised by Calima and others to assess the profitability of the Company’s oil and natural gas assets on a

of the estimated future oil and gas revenues, reduced by direct expenses, and discounted at an annual rate of 10%
a revolving credit facility available to a borrower based on (secured by) the value of the borrower’s oil and gas
reserves
Interest in a leasehold area providing the holder with the right to receive a share of production associated with the

Tonnes of Carbon Dioxide
a  well  that  produces  gas  or  oil  from  an  unconventional  underground reservoir  formation,  such  as  shale,  which
typically requires hydraulic fracturing to allow the gas or oil to flow out of the reservoir
a segment of the oil and gas industry that focuses on the exploration and production of oil and natural gas
The  working  capital  ratio as the  ratio of  (i)  current assets plus  any  undrawn  availability  under  the  facility  to (ii)
current liabilities less any amount drawn under the facilities. For the purposes of the covenant calculation, risk
management contract assets and liabilities are excluded.
a type of interest in an oil and gas property that obligates the holder thereof to bear and pay a portion of all the
property's maintenance, development, and operational costs and expenses, without giving effect to any burdens
