CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cavvy Energy Ltd. ("Cavvy” or the "Company”) (TSX:CVVY) is pleased to announce the release of its second quarter 2025 financial and operating results. The Company produced 26,064 boe/d and generated Net Operating Income1 ("NOI”) of $26.5 million during the second quarter of 2025. Management’s discussion and analysis ("MD&A”) and unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 are available at www.cavvyenergy.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Darcy Reding, President and CEO stated, "Growing shareholder value remains the top priority for our team. Compared to the second quarter of 2024, and aligned with our strategic objectives, we grew third party processing volumes and revenue by over 120% and continued to optimize our business, including by keeping certain dry gas producing areas shut-in because they are uneconomic at current natural gas prices. Our continuing focus on lowering our debt resulted in net debt reduction of $18.6 million, to $166.9 million. As we head towards the end of 2025 our team remains focused on debt reduction, continuous improvement to our cost structure, filling our gas processing facilities, preparing for the expiration of a long-term fixed price sulphur marketing agreement on December 31, 2025, and evaluating opportunities for growth.”

- Produced 26,064 boe/d (81% natural gas), down 16% from Q2 2024 mainly due to the voluntary shut-in of approximately 9,000 boe/d of uneconomic dry gas production from Q3 2024 through Q2 2025.

OUTLOOK
Management’s near-term priority remains strengthening our balance sheet while safely and responsibly operating our assets. Delivering on this priority requires continued focus on attracting incremental third-party volumes, implementing cost reduction initiatives, optimizing infrastructure, and executing non-core asset dispositions to maintain profitability during all periods of the commodity cycle. Our long-term strategy requires continuous improvement in the business while identifying opportunities to generate growth for our shareholders.
While guidance remains unchanged at this time, management expects 2025 NOI at or above the high end of the guidance range.
2025 guidance remains unchanged as follows:
