NON-GAAP MEASURES: This presentation may contain certain non-GAAP measures, including the term “cash flow” which is a non-GAAP measure defined as cash from operating activities excluding net change in other assets and liabilities, net change in non-cash working capital and cash tax on sale of assets. This
and any other non-GAAP measures used in this presentation are intended to provide shareholders and potential investors with additional information regarding Bellatrix’s liquidity and its ability to generate funds to finance its operations.
FD&A COSTS: This presentation includes calculations of FD&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2015. The calculations of FD&A in this presentation include the reserves additions associated with acquisitions and the costs of acquisitions as Bellatrix believes that including the effect of acquisitions provides
useful information to investors.
BOE PRESENTATION: The term barrels of oil equivalent (“boe”) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent (6 mcf/ 1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner
tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value. All boe
conversions in this presentation are derived from converting gas to oil in the ratio of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil.
INITIAL PRODUCTION RATES: Initial production rates disclosed herein may not be indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery. Such rates are not determinative of the future production rates of such wells and do not reflect how the production from such wells will decline thereafter. While
encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for Bellatrix. A pressure transient analysis or well test interpretation has not been carried out in respect of all wells. Accordingly, Bellatrix cautions that the test results should be considered to be
preliminary.
ESTIMATED ULTIMATE RECOVERY (EUR): In this presentation, estimated ultimate recovery represents the estimated ultimate recovery associated with the type curves presented which are based on the assumptions used by Sproule Associates Limited to estimate Bellatrix's proved plus probable reserves per well
as evaluated effective December 31, 2015 based on forecast prices and costs. There is no certainty that such Bellatrix will ultimately recover such volumes from the wells it drills.
ANALOGOUS INFORMATION: Certain information in this presentation may constitute "analogous information" as defined in National Instrument 51-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities (“NI 51-101”), including, but not limited to, the reservoir data, production rates of industry wells, cumulative
production information, and economics information relating to the areas in which Bellatrix has an interest. Such information has been obtained from government sources, regulatory agencies or other industry participants. Management of Bellatrix believes the information is relevant as it helps to define the
reservoir characteristics and the reserves and production potential in which Bellatrix holds an interest. Such information has not been prepared in accordance with NI 51-101. Bellatrix is also unable to confirm that the analogous information was prepared by a qualified reserves evaluator or auditor. Such
information is not an estimate of the resources attributable to lands held or to be held by Bellatrix and there is no certainty that the reservoir data, resource estimates, production and decline rates and economics information for the lands held by Bellatrix will be similar to the information presented herein. The
reader is cautioned that the data relied upon by Bellatrix may be in error and/or may prove not be analogous to the lands be held by Bellatrix.
CURRENCY: All dollar amounts in this presentation are Canadian dollars unless otherwise identified.
DRILLING LOCATIONS: This presentation discloses drilling locations in three categories: (i) proved locations; (ii) probable locations; and (iii) unbooked locations. Proved locations and probable locations are sometimes collectively referred to as “booked locations”, are derived from Bellatrix’s most recent
independent reserves evaluation and account for drilling locations that have associated proved + probable reserves or probable-only reserves, as applicable. Unbooked locations as disclosed herein have been identified by management as an estimation of the Company's multi-year drilling activities using
information including evaluation of applicable geologic, seismic, engineering, production, pricing assumptions and reserves information. There is no certainty that Bellatrix will drill all unbooked drilling locations and if drilled there is no certainty that such locations will result in additional oil and gas reserves,
resources or production. The drilling locations on which Bellatrix actually drill wells will ultimately depend upon the availability of capital, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, additional reservoir information that is obtained and other factors. While the
majority of Bellatrix's unbooked locations are extensions or infills of the drilling patterns already recognized by the Company's independent qualified reserves evaluator, other unbooked drilling locations are farther away from existing wells where management may have less information about the characteristics
of the reservoir and therefore there may be more uncertainty whether wells will be drilled in such locations and if drilled there may be more uncertainty that such wells will result in additional oil and gas reserves, resources or production.
RESERVES INFORMATION: Unless indicated otherwise, reserve estimates and related future net revenue and other reserves information is derived from Bellatrix’s independent reserve report prepared by Sproule Associates Limited as at December 31, 2015 using forecast prices and costs. Land acreage
information is as available at December 31, 2015.
TYPE CURVE AND CAPITAL EFFICIENCY: In this presentation information relating to the type curve, half cycle economics and capital efficiency for Bellatrix's Spirit River wells have been presented. The type curve set forth herein is based on all Bellatrix operated, Notikewin and Falher B wells drilled between
October 2012 and September 2015, and represents the mean (P50) performance curve. Half cycle economics are based on Bellatrix's current expectations of drill, complete, equip and tie-in costs per well (and excluding land, seismic and related costs). Capital efficiency is a measure of expected capital
expenditures per well based on half cycle economics divided by average first year production results (IP365) based on the type curve presented. The type curve and capital efficiency numbers have been presented to provide readers with information on the assumptions used for management's budgeting process
and future planning. The half cycle economics and capital efficiencies may not be achieved on future wells as a result of a number of factors including the risks identified above under "Forward Looking Statements" and as such are not reliable indicators of future performance. In addition, there is no certainty that
future wells will generate results to match historic type curves presented herein. Half cycle economics and capital efficiencies are not terms that have standardized meanings and therefore such calculations may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION: Unless otherwise stated, financial information is based upon Bellatrix’s 2015 audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
