Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels:
Overweight
Clearwater Symposium
(NBF Economics & Strategy Group)
We recently hosted a symposium of Clearwater players (BTE, HWX, Spur, TPZ & TVE), who account
for approximately 80% of production across the project, and which continued to distill & frame
the relative opportunity within the highest return project in the Basin (as discussed in our previous
Clearwater thematic) and their resulting relative value potential (off a now discounted base of
valuation, with the Clearwater arguably ON SALE trading at 2.6x 2023e EV/DACF).

Key Takeaways

• Project Scalability Remains – A question which has increasingly been topical is; how much
can the Clearwater be scaled by (it already being Canada’s largest conventional oil play ~100
mbbl/d)? Perspectives offered by operators indicate that runway remains ample, with identified
scalable potential to 150 – 200 mbbl/d within long-term growth projections.

• Key Initiatives Evolving – That growth will come on the back of (and augmented by) key
initiatives including;
○ Continued exploration success; each operator spoke towards new & evolving opportunity-
set in multi-zonal prospects across a massive expanse of the fairway.

○ On-going deployment of waterflood; selectively suggested across the fairway with


positive and evolving success.

○ Complementary & evolving infrastructure picture; where significant infrastructure in-


place in addition to new initiatives should continue to support that growth.

○ Opportunity for M&A; On the back of the TVE/Deltastream transaction, consolidation


remains topical, while the project remains fragmented and opportunity remains.

○ Managing access to services & inflation; The project remains a low intensity
development, and as such, inflationary pressures have been modest.

• Something for Everyone – Given that potential opportunity within an expanding & high-
return project like the Clearwater, we believe ALL investors should have exposure here, and
optimistically, there is literally something for everyone (with relevant notes for each company
published within this note);
○ BTE – Rate of change story, where although taking a cautious approach, the strength of

Key Themes
 Project Scalability Remains – A question which has increasingly been topical is; how much can the
Clearwater be scaled by (it already being Canada’s largest conventional oil play ~100 mbbl/d; from
a standing-start and within cash flow under a constrained price deck over the past 4-5 years)?
Perspectives offered by operators indicate that runway remains ample, with identified scalable
potential to 150 – 200 mbbl/d within long-term growth projections (logically a diminishing rate of
change of ~15% project CAGR over 3-5 years). As we have repeatedly noted, the high-velocity of
returns in the Clearwater will support growth on a very well-funded basis (i.e. maintenance under a
15% payout ratio and 30% growth noted under a 30-40% payout), which magnifies its potential
volumetric “scalability” by a factor of 3x on a FCF per barrel basis (see below Exhibit 3) – uniquely,
capital is not the question for this asset but inventory & pace of development are;

o Direct Quotes – As evidence of the economic potential and value opportunity;

o “you can pay down debt by drilling wells”,

o “the more rigs you add the more cash you generate”,

o “break-even <$40/bbl WTI shows its resilience”, and

o “pay a base dividend and grow production at 25% per year at $50/bbl WTI”.

 Key Initiatives Evolving – That growth will come on the back of (and augmented by) key initiatives
including;

o Continued exploration success; each operator spoke towards new & evolving opportunity-set
in multi-zonal prospects across a massive expanse of the fairway (i.e. over 400 km from NW
to SE and at least 50,000 sq km with exploration likely to expand this; see below Exhibit 5),
which remains de-risked by historical development of underlying formations.

o On-going deployment of waterflood; selectively suggested across the fairway with positive
and evolving success (see below Exhibits 18 & 19) in support of the resilience, duration &
significance of long-term free cash (suggested to be analogous to SAGD).

o Complementary & evolving infrastructure picture; where significant infrastructure in-place


in addition to new initiatives should continue to support that growth, while also providing
opportunity for augmented realizations & returns (as if it needs the help…).

o Opportunity for M&A; On the back of the TVE/Deltastream transaction, consolidation


remains topical, and while the project remains fragmented and opportunity remains, one
operator appropriately framed the potential for M&A as being moderated when considered
on the basis of risked-assets and probability of success (stuff to be done, but potentially
more modest in size).

 That said, we continue to believe that a) the high-efficiency of the assets can
backfill any perceived price risk to drive ample accretion (over any time scale), and
b) the free cash generation potential inherent to these assets at maturity should
find increasing appetite from return-oriented majors over the long-term (i.e.
FCF/bbl 3x greater than competing conventional assets).
o Managing access to services & inflation; The project remains a low intensity development
(i.e. shallow & unfraced), and as such, access to services and inflationary pressures have
been modest (15-20% Y/Y noted) and abating.

 Something for Everyone – Given that potential opportunity within an expanding & high-return
project like the Clearwater, we believe ALL investors should have exposure here (BECOMING
IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE), and optimistically, there is literally something for everyone (with relevant
notes for each from our symposium published within this note);

o BTE – Rate of change story, where although taking a cautious approach, the strength of its
results should see it easily eclipse targets and support accelerating de-leveraging & return
of capital.

o HWX – Pure play public organic growth across a scalable asset with a view to establishing
significant free cash capabilities.

o Spur – Pure play private organic growth, and the outright leader in the play will continue to
advance massive value potential across multiple initiatives.

o TVE - Portfolio approach, with outperformance of return of capital likely to come through
increased proportional exposure to the Clearwater.

o TPZ – Best in class income-growth & value through high-visibility in a high-quality portfolio
(Clearwater being only the tip of an enormous iceberg).

Company Summaries
Baytex Energy Corp. (OP & $9 TP based on an unchanged 4.0x 2023e EV/DACF multiple; see our note on
BTE’s Q2/22, including Clearwater results) – The benefactor of the absolute strongest wells in the entire
Clearwater project (high rates a function of superior reservoir characteristic; more akin to the Bluesky than
conventional Clearwater), the company is well positioned to capitalize on a large value proposition across
125 sections of highly prospective land (increasingly confident that could be closer to 200 sections of its
hundreds of sections of regional lands; 50 sections currently de-risked with a decade of inventory). Current
production sits in the range of 9 mboe/d from <30 wells (on its way to 10 mboe/d at YE; take the over),
significantly outperforming its risked type-curve (by a factor of 2x; consistent contribution noted from ERH
development) and delivering growth achieved well within cash flow (60% payout; notable support from
significant regional infrastructure in-place, provides flexibility & augmented netback) - while pace of
development is important (given social considerations across the Peavine Metis Settlement; will cautiously
advance under a 1-2 rig program), we would suggest that it will continue to decimate long-term growth
forecasts (i.e. 15 mboe/d currently stated “bluesky” target…), which again, as a function of its high-return
nature should serve to accelerate de-leveraging and accelerated return of capital ($800 mln near-term debt
target likely in Q1/23; ~20% 2023e FCF yield implied at strip) in support of value.

Headwater Exploration Inc. (OP & $9.50 TP based on an unchanged 6.0x 2023e EV/DACF multiple; see
our note discussing HWX's Q2/22 results) – The pure-play public Clearwater operator maintains a tangible
opportunity to establish a massive value proposition organically, through the exploration, delineation &
development of its extensive suite of assets (400 sections of land with multi-zonal potential, only ~10%
developed to date), as evidenced by de-risking of its West Marten Hills project (from exploration to now
development & potential for +8 mboe/d), and with multiple incremental projects to pad its low-risk base
forecasts (i.e. 22.5 mboe/d could look more like 50 mboe/d on an unrisked basis; Peavine, Shadow/Seal,
Utikuma to be tested), and all of which could be complemented by further M&A (albeit, potentially more
modest on a risked basis). Regardless, and potentially underappreciated (a first! See Exhibit 10 historical
multiple chart), is the value prospect offered by the high-return asset base (as noted above), where its base
program could support a ~20% free cash yield and its long-term risked/unrisked potential (on a similar basis)
could support a yield of between +30-40% - we are not short on confidence in long-term upside here (as
always, we can’t help but draw the organic analogy to Spur, for which HWX is probably only a year or so
behind).

Spur Petroleum Ltd. (Private) – Perhaps no longer the largest operator (for now…), but still the absolute
leader in the play, the company continues to thoughtfully expand its value proposition with concurrent
exploration, delineation, development & waterflood across its massive land spread (1,500 sections). With
that, high-return growth remains the emphasis, with a 6 rig program (up from 4) to deliver 25-30% growth
through 2025 towards critical mass at 60 mboe/d (6-8 yr. duration), all within a ~30% payout ratio in support
of an implied 25% FCF yield (oh, while build or returning about 60% of its market cap in cash)… unreal (“the
more rigs you add the more cash you generate…”). Key initiatives within this outlook (and upside to it) ,
include;

a) continued deployment of waterflood across Marten Hills (analogy to low capital efficiency SAGD
ops.),

b) success across three exploration targets (“exploring for viscosity” across multiple sands and
deploying new techniques) to continue to be tested this winter (more exists elsewhere across the
portfolio) and

c) evolving infrastructure picture in support of augmented realizations & netbacks.

Tamarack Valley Energy Ltd. (OP & $8 TP based on an unchanged 4.5x 2023e EV/DACF multiple; see our
note discussing TVE's recent acquisition) – The significance of its aggressive pivot to the Clearwater cannot
be understated (now its largest operator; 1/3rd of total project volumes), where again, as a function of its
high-return nature, its proportional FCF generation (see above) will significantly drive the long-term de-
leveraging & return of capital of the business (“you can pay down debt by drilling wells”). Disciplined
development of a risked portfolio of assets (752 net sections of land; multi-zonal, and some entirely risked),
emphasis on its core competency of waterflood, and benefits of the aggregate infrastructure footprint (incl.
Rangeland exposure; benefits of blending/marketing/economies etc.), will almost certainly augment &
optimize its value potential. Bottom line, expect its return of capital and value potential to outperform
expectations (21% 2023e FCF yield forecast at strip) as a function of the increased exposure & emphasis in
the Clearwater (and elsewhere in top tier plays like the Charlie Lake, and all with underlying support of the
broader waterflood portfolio).

Topaz Energy Corp. (OP & $30 TP based on an unchanged 7% aggregate FCF yield; TPZ's recent
Clearwater royalty acquisition analyzed in this note) – The epitome of a purposeful portfolio, and we
continue to highlight the unique orientation of its business, which results from high-visibility (+$1.5 bln in
committed capital across its lands) through high-quality operators (AAV, HWX, TOU, TVE etc.) across high-
value assets (Clearwater, Charlie Lake, Montney etc.), and which should drive tangible value through further
transactions or dividend growth. Notably, and as noted through the presenting operators, its exposures in
the Clearwater should continue to realize outsized growth (with complements of exploration & waterflood)
in support of high-margin EBITDA growth (again, one of the most resilient projects in the Basin). To that end,
we continue to note an improving duration of opportunity within its portfolio, where growth & exploration
focused operators should continue to press forward and expand the opportunity-set (outside the Clearwater,
we note potential long-term LNG exposure through TOU). Again, that expanding duration of high-margin
returns will continue to give visibility to long-term value growth (based on visible prospective growth of 10-
20% per annum, normalized 60-90% payout ratio and prevailing yield, its equity could be indicated towards
+$50/sh by 2024).

RISKS:

BTE

Commodity Prices: Fluctuations in global and local commodity prices, in addition to foreign exchange rates, can have material, adverse impacts on operations, financial condition and reserves
value. A decline in commodity prices presents the greatest single direct risk to a company’s revenue, cash flow and earnings.

Operational/Regulatory: Oil and natural gas development involves a high degree of risk, which is managed through a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation. There is no
assurance that expenditures made on exploration and development will result in new discoveries or commercial quantities of oil and gas. As well, existing production and processing activities can be
impacted by unforeseeable events that can negatively impact production and cash flow. Additionally, controls and regulations may be imposed and amended from all levels of government, presenting
immediate material impacts to companies in some cases.

Non-Operated Assets: The company is not the operator of its drilling locations in the Eagle Ford, and therefore, not able to control the timing of development, associated costs or the rate of
production on the subject properties.

HWX

Major Shareholder Risk: Additionally, major shareholders that may hold a substantial proportion of the company’s outstanding shares can also present a risk to liquidity, cost of capital and
capitalization of the company. In HWX's case, CVE is a 26% (31% fully diluted) shareholder, and while its interests are aligned, could present an overhang to the stock through its own strategic
interests (orientation of the company or need to crystalize its interests).

Clearwater Risks: While the project holds substantially positive attributes, as with all elements of the exploration and production business, this play holds inherent risk, which we primarily highlight
through WCS differentials, sulphur content, infrastructure support, solution gas drive, land access and structure & geology (in-depth understanding of the aforementioned can be found within our
initiation report).

Operational Risk: Oil and natural gas exploration involves a high degree of risk, which is managed through a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation. There is no assurance
that expenditures made on exploration will result in new discoveries or commercial quantities of oil and gas. As well, existing production and processing activities can be impacted by unforeseeable
events that can negatively impact production and cash flow levels. HWX has a meaningful orientation towards exploration investment, which in addition to ongoing validation of EOR response, will
comprise the key sources of risk to our outlook.

Commodity Prices: Fluctuations in global and local commodity prices, in addition to foreign exchange rates, can have material, adverse impacts on operations, financial condition and reserves
value. A decline in commodity prices presents the greatest single direct risk to a company’s revenue, cash flow and earnings.

Operational/Regulatory: Oil and natural gas development involves a high degree of risk, which is managed through a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation. There is no
assurance that expenditures made on exploration and development will result in new discoveries or commercial quantities of oil and gas. As well, existing production and processing activities can be
impacted by unforeseeable events that can negatively impact production and cash flow. Additionally, controls and regulations may be imposed and amended from all levels of government, presenting
immediate material impacts to companies in some cases.

Surface Conditions: Oil and gas industry operations are affected by road bans imposed from time to time during the winter break-up and thaw period in the spring. Road bans are also imposed due
to snow, mud and rock slides and periods of high water or wildfires which can restrict access to well sites and production facilities.

TPZ

Execution of the Strategy: The value of its assets and strategy will be predicated on its ability to execute continued growth, principally targeting diversification (jurisdiction, counterparty, commodity)
and quality (counterparty and take-or-pay). Deal flow may not be readily accessible in a timely fashion and could cause a drag on sentiment and value.

Concentration Risk: As it sits, TOU is the major underlying counterparty and will predicate the majority of its embedded growth strategy, but could in specific situations prove an impediment to its
outlook (as growth, optionality and transactions will largely be dictated by TOU; i.e., take-or-pays and activity distribution).

Tourmaline Share Overhang: Given the significance of TOU’s holdings and the competing opportunities to expand its interest (future dropdowns) relative to its ultimate goal to reduce its interest,
there could be material blocks of stock available at various intervals of time, which may or may not be affiliated with an accretive transaction, subject to the needs of the parent company, and could
present overhang to the stock and risk to its cost of capital.

NBF makes no representation as to the proper characterization of the investments for legal, regulatory or tax purposes, or as to the ability of a particular investor to invest or transact in the
investments under applicable legal restrictions.

If securities are offered by an issuer in a foreign jurisdiction, or the security is structured through a foreign special-purpose-vehicle, or you purchase securities that are issued by foreign issuers, your
investment and continued holding of securities may be subject to the laws and regulations of more than one jurisdiction. There may be differences in legal and regulatory regimes across different
jurisdictions which may significantly impact the legal and regulatory risks affecting the investment sector and / or investment.

NBF and/or its parent and/or any companies within or affiliates of the National Bank of Canada group and/or any of their directors, officers and employees may have or may have had interests or
long or short positions in, and may at any time make purchases and/or sales as principal or agent, or may act or may have acted as market maker in the relevant investments or related investments
discussed in this Report, or may act or have acted as investment and/or commercial banker with respect hereto. The value of investments, and the income derived from them, can go down as well
as up and you may not get back the amount invested. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. If an investment is denominated in a foreign currency, rates of exchange may have an
adverse effect on the value of the investment. Investments which are illiquid may be difficult to sell or realise; it may also be difficult to obtain reliable information about their value or the extent of the
risks to which they are exposed. Certain transactions, including those involving futures, swaps, and other derivatives, give rise to substantial risk and are not suitable for all investors. The investments
