Gary Guidry: Optimistic Outlook for 2026 Free Cash Flow
Gary Guidry, CEO, commented: "Our performance for the Quarter reflects a strong start to 2026, with production meeting expectations and capital spending below plan, demonstrating disciplined execution across the business. With the completed disposition of our Simonette assets and the successful bond exchange, we are in a stronger financial position, well-equipped to support ongoing operations and the continued deleveraging of the balance sheet. We signed an Exploration, Development and Production Sharing Agreement with the State Oil Company of the Republic of Azerbaijan and entered into a strategic partnership with Ecopetrol that is expected to unlock operational synergies and further enhance long-term value creation. Supported by these strategic developments and the evolving market environment, our revised 2026 guidance reflects a stronger outlook for free cash flow while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation. Looking forward, we remain focused on financial strength, generating free cash flow and reducing debt as we continue to deliver long-term value to shareholders."
