NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(Tabular amounts are stated in thousands of Canadian dollars except share numbers and per share amounts)

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Precision Drilling Corporation (Precision or the Corporation) is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta, Canada and is a provider of contract drilling and completion and production services primarily to oil and natural gas and geothermal exploration and production companies in Canada, the United States and certain international locations.

 

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

(a) Statement of Compliance

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting, using accounting policies consistent with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

 

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated annual financial statements of the Corporation as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared using accounting policies and methods of their application are consistent with those used in the preparation of the Corporation’s consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on October 22, 2025.

 

(b) Use of Estimates and Judgements

 

The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgements that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingencies. These estimates and judgements are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimation of anticipated future events involves uncertainty and, consequently, the estimates used in preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements may change as future events unfold, more experience is acquired, or the Corporation’s operating environment changes.

 

Significant estimates and judgements used in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements remained unchanged from those disclosed in the Corporation’s consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

The impacts of geopolitical events, such as the imposed tariffs between Canada and the U.S., regional conflicts, especially in oil producing areas, can materially impact energy markets, interest and inflation rates, and supply chains, resulting in higher levels of volatility and uncertainty. Management has, to the extent reasonable, incorporated known facts and circumstances into the estimates made, however, actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material.

(b)Seasonality

 

Precision has operations that are carried on in Canada which represent approximately 60% (2024 – 58%) of consolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 43% (2024 – 41%) of consolidated total assets as at September 30, 2025. The ability to move heavy equipment in Canadian oil and natural gas fields is dependent on weather conditions. As warm weather returns in the spring, the winter's frost comes out of the ground rendering many secondary roads incapable of supporting the weight of heavy equipment until they have thoroughly dried out. The duration of this “spring break-up” has a direct impact on Precision’s activity levels. In addition, many exploration and production areas in northern Canada are accessible only in winter months when the ground is frozen hard enough to support equipment. The timing of freeze up and spring break-up affects the ability to move equipment in and out of these areas. As a result, late March through May is traditionally Precision’s slowest time in this region.

(a)       Normal Course Issuer Bid

 

During the third quarter of 2025, the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) approved the renewal of Precision's Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB). Pursuant to the NCIB, the Corporation has been authorized by the TSX to repurchase and cancel up to a maximum of 1,251,850 common shares. The NCIB will terminate no later than September 18, 2026. For the period ended September 30, 2025, Precision repurchased and cancelled a total of 767,422 (2024 – 543,778) common shares for $54 million (2024 – $50 million) and recorded $1 million (2024 – $1 million) of Canadian share buy back tax.

(b)       Automated Share Purchase Plan

 

Prior to September 30, 2025, Precision entered into an Automated Share Purchase Plan (ASPP) with an independent broker to permit the repurchase of common shares during its internal blackout period. The volume of purchases is determined by the broker in its sole discretion based on purchase price and maximum volume parameters established by the Corporation under the ASPP. The Corporation recorded a liability for purchases estimated to occur during the blackout period based on the parameters of the NCIB and the ASPP. As at September 30, 2025, Precision recorded a liability in accounts payable with a corresponding decrease to share capital of $5 million.

NOTE 10. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of the instruments. At the end of each reporting period, investments and other assets are measured at their estimated fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. Amounts drawn on the Senior Credit Facility, measured at amortized cost, approximate fair value as this indebtedness is subject to floating rates of interest and the interest rate swap is classified as a derivative fair valued through profit or loss. The fair value of the unsecured senior note at September 30, 2025 was approximately $559 million (December 31, 2024 – $801 million).

 

Financial assets and liabilities recorded or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position are categorized based upon the level of judgement associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels are based on the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs in the fair value determination and are as follows:

 

Level I—Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

 

Level II—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.

 

Level III—Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

 

14

 

 

The estimated fair value of unsecured senior notes and interest rate swap is based on level II inputs. The fair value is estimated considering the risk-free interest rates on government debt instruments of similar maturities, adjusted for estimated credit risk, industry risk and market risk premiums.

 

NOTE 11. INCOME TAXES

 

During the quarter, the Corporation recognized a deferred income tax expense of $33 million, primarily attributable to the waiving of certain U.S. tax deductions. These deductions were waived to mitigate minimum taxes that the Corporation became subject to as a result of stronger operating results. Consequently, Precision expects to not be subject to U.S. income tax for several years. The waiving of these U.S. tax deductions has been accounted for as a change in tax estimate and adjusted prospectively, resulting in an increase to deferred tax expense and corresponding increase to the deferred tax liability. Precision continues to not recognize deferred income tax assets for certain international locations.
