Arrow Announces Q3 2025 Interim Results
Calgary, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – November 27, 2025) – Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL) (TSXV: AXL) (“Arrow” or the “Company“), the high-growth operator with a portfolio of assets across key Colombian hydrocarbon basins, is pleased to announce the filing of its Interim Condensed (unaudited) Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, which are available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and will also be available shortly on Arrow’s website at www.arrowexploration.ca.

- Average corporate production of 4,214 boe/d (Q3 2024: 4,124 boe/d).
- Recorded $18.5 million of total oil and natural gas revenue, net of royalties.
- Realized corporate oil operating netbacks(1) of $38.21/bbl.
- Cash position of $6.3 million at the end of Q3 2025.
- YTD generated operating cashflows of $25 million.
- Drilled two additional development wells in the Carrizales Norte (CN) field in the Tapir block, and an exploration well in Mateguafa Oeste (MO).
- Net YTD income of $4.8 million.
(1)Non-IFRS measures – see “Non-IFRS Measures” section within the MD&A
Post Period End Highlights:
- Drilled the Mateguafa Attic wells: Mateguafa-5 (M-5) and Mateguafa-6 (M-6), and spud the Mateguafa-7 Horizontal well (M-HZ7)
Cash Balance:
On November 1, 2025, the Company’s cash balance was US$8.2 million. This reflects an intensive period of capital outlay as the Company contracted a second rig during Q2 and Q3 and built access roads and drill pads at Carrizales Norte, Mataguafa Oeste, Mataguafa Attic and preliminary works at the highly prospective Icaco project. The Company has now reverted to operating one rig, and the site preparation and seismic costs are largely met, this provides a foundation for future development and exploration activities., Both production and net backs remain robust at current market prices.
Tapir Extension and COR-39 Block
The Company is engaged in continuing discussions with authorities on the Tapir block extension. Arrow considers that all requirements for the extension have been met. Furthermore, the Company is in discussions with regulatory bodies on the termination of COR-39 Block license obligations (where activity has been suspended since November 2017). Discussions with authorities are going well and Arrow will keep the market updated in future releases.
Upcoming Drilling
The Company has spud the M-HZ7 well, which is expected to be put on production in mid-December 2025. Thereafter, the Company expects to drill another well at its Mateguafa Attic field and initiate civil works in preparation to drill its first exploration well in the Icaco prospect in Q1 2026.
Marshall Abbott, CEO of Arrow Exploration Corp., commented:
“The third quarter of 2025 has been very busy for Arrow. We completed two development wells in Carrizales Norte and drilled the Mateguafa Oeste exploration well as well as setting up infrastructure for the discovery at Mateguafa Attic and the upcoming exploration well at Icaco. The Mateguafa Attic discovery could become a major production platform and have a material impact on the Company, and the Icaco prospect is another near term catalyst that we expect will be drilled in the first quarter of 2026.”
“The Company continues to work with regulatory authorities on the extension of the Tapir block. The Company considers it has met all of the requirements for an extension and discussions with regulatory officials continue to progress.”
“Arrow has invested heavily into roads, pads and water infrastructure in both Q2 and Q3 and the results can be seen with a significant decrease in the Company’s operating cost in Q3 when compared to Q2 2025. This investment will continue to payback over the life of the Tapir pads.”
“The focus for the remainder of 2025 will be to drill low risk wells at the Mateguafa Attic pad in the Tapir block and to get all preliminary works in place to drill our first exploratory well at the Icaco prospect.”

DISCUSSION OF OPERATING RESULTS
During Q3 2025, the Company’s production has increased, compared to the previous two quarters, due to wells drilled in the Alberta Llanos and Rio Cravo Este fields coming on production. Production growth is expected to continue as the Company executes on the 2025 budget. During the quarter, the Company maintained good operating results and healthy EBITDA.

(1)Non-IFRS measure
The operating netbacks of the Company have been affected in 2025 due to increased water production from its Colombian assets and decreased crude oil and natural gas prices. During Q3 2025, the Company incurred $9 million of capital expenditure, primarily in connection with the drilling of additional development wells in the Tapir block. This tempo is expected to continue during the remainder of 2025, funded by cash on hand and cashflow.

Non‐IFRS Measures
The Company uses non-IFRS measures to evaluate its performance which are measures not defined in IFRS. Working capital, funds flow from operations, realized prices, operating netback, adjusted EBITDA, and net debt as presented do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities. The Company considers these measures as key measures to demonstrate its ability to generate the cash flow necessary to fund future growth through capital investment, and to repay its debt, as the case may be. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than net income (loss) or cash provided by operating activities or net loss and comprehensive loss as determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the Company’s performance. The Company’s determination of these measures may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.
