KOLIBRI GLOBAL ENERGY ANNOUNCES NET INCOME OF $7 MILLION AND A 94% PRODUCTION INCREASE FOR SECOND QUARTER OF 2022

NEWBURY PARK, CALIFORNIA, August 9, 2022 -

All amounts are in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise indicated:

SECOND QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

| ● | Average production for the second quarter of 2022 was 1,928 BOEPD, an increase of 94% compared to the second quarter of 2021 average production of 994 BOEPD due to production from the Barnes 7-3H well which started production in March 2022 and the Barnes 8-4H well which started production at the end of April 2022
| ● | Adjusted funds flow(1) was $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 473%. The increase was due to a 94% increase in production and an 84% increase in average prices
| ● | Revenue, net of royalties was $12.4 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $3.5 million for second quarter of 2021, an increase of 251%, as production increased by 94% and prices increased by 84%
| ● | Net income in the second quarter of 2022 was $7.0 million, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase was due to higher production and taxes partially offset by higher realized losses on commodity contracts
| ● | Average netback from operations(2) for the second quarter of 2022 was $63.06/boe, an increase of 108% from the prior year second quarter due to higher prices in 2022. Netback including commodity contracts(2) for the second quarter of 2022 was $53.66/boe which was 128% higher than the prior year second quarter
| ● | Interest expense decreased by 6% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year due to principal payments on the credit facility during the second half of 2021 and 2022 which reduced the outstanding loan balance
| ● | Production and operating expenses per barrel averaged $7.77 per BOE in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $8.81 per BOE in the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of 12%. The decrease was due to increased production which reduced the per barrel fixed costs partially offset by higher production taxes due to an increase in prices
| ● | In May 2022, the Company completed a share consolidation on the basis of one post-consolidation common share for every ten pre-consolidation common shares. The consolidation reduced the number of common shares issued and outstanding from 356,159,098 common shares to 35,615,921 common shares. All information related to earnings per share, issued and outstanding common shares, stock options and per share amounts in the press release have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the share consolidation
| ● | In May 2022, the Company amended its credit facility with BOK Financial with an initial borrowing base of $20 million. The credit facility expires in June 2026 and the Company currently has $3.8 million of available borrowing capacity

Kolibri’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Wolf Regener commented:

“We are extremely pleased with the performance of our first two wells in the 2022 drilling program. Both the Barnes 7-3H and the Barnes 8-4H have exceeded our expected type curve. We generated over $8.6 million of adjusted funds flow(1) in the second quarter and over $7.0 million of net income from the outstanding performance of these two wells along with higher prices. After less than five months, the Barnes 7-3H well has already achieved payoff. We are excited that the drilling rig is scheduled to begin rigging up next week to continue our 2012 five well drilling program. We are planning to drill the next three wells back-to-back with completion activities scheduled to start in September. In order to prevent drilling delays due to potential supply chain issues, the Company had already purchased approximately $3.0 million of tubulars which is enough to supply all three of these wells.

With the continued support of BOK Financial, our credit facility now has an extended maturity of June 2026 with an initial commitment amount of $20 million giving us an available borrowing capacity of $3.8 million which will, along with cash flow from operations, allow us to continue our drilling program.

Average production for the second quarter of 2022 was 1,928 BOEPD, an increase of 94% compared to the second quarter of 2021 average production of 994 BOEPD due to production from the Barnes 7-3H well which started production in March 2022 and the Barnes 8-4H well which started production at the end of April 2022.

Adjusted funds flow(1) was $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of 473%. The increase was due to a 94% increase in production and an 84% increase in average prices.

Net revenue increased by 251% to $12.4 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $3.5 million for second quarter of 2021 due to the production and price increases.

Net income in the second quarter of 2022 was $7.0 million, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase was due to higher production and taxes partially offset by higher realized losses on commodity contracts

Netback from operations(2) for the second quarter of 2022 was $63.06/boe, an increase of 108% from the prior year second quarter due to higher prices in 2022. Netback including commodity contracts(2) for the second quarter of 2022 was $53.66/boe which was 128% higher than the prior year second quarter amount of $24.14/boe.

Operating expenses per barrel averaged $7.77 per BOE in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $8.81 per BOE in the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of 12%. The decrease was due to increased production which reduced the per barrel fixed costs partially offset by higher production taxes due to an increase in prices.

3

Interest expense decreased by 6% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year due to principal payments on the credit facility during the second half of 2021 and 2022 which reduced the outstanding loan balance.

The Company’s G&A expenses increased by 27% due to increases in payroll costs and director fees in 2022 and additional non-recurring professional costs related to the share consolidation process.”

4

Average production for the second quarter of 2022 was 1,928 BOEPD, an increase of 94% compared to the second quarter of 2021 average production of 994 BOEPD due to production from the Barnes 7-3H well which started production in March 2022 and the Barnes 8-4H well which started production at the end of April 2022.

Operating expenses averaged $7.77 per BOE for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $8.81 per BOE for the same period in 2021. The decrease was due to increased production which reduced the per barrel fixed costs partially offset by higher production taxes due to an increase in prices.

Depletion and depreciation expense increased $1,191,000 or 133% due to increased production and a higher PP&E balance after the reversal of previous impairment in the fourth quarter of 2021.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Netback from operations, netback including commodity contracts and adjusted funds flow (collectively, the “Company’s Non-GAAP Measures”) are not measures or ratios recognized under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and do not have any standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Management of the Company believes that such measures and ratios are relevant for evaluating returns on each of the Company’s projects as well as the performance of the enterprise as a whole. The Company’s Non-GAAP Measures may differ from similar computations as reported by other similar organizations and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures and ratios as reported by such organizations. The Company’s Non-GAAP Measures should not be construed as alternatives to net income, cash flows related to operating activities, working capital or other financial measures and ratios determined in accordance with IFRS, as an indicator of the Company’s performance.

An explanation of how the Company’s Non-GAAP Measures provide useful information to an investor and the purposes for which the Company’s management uses the Non-GAAP Measures is set out in the management’s discussion and analysis under the heading “Non-GAAP Measures” which is available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com and is incorporated by reference into this earnings release.

Netback from operations per barrel and its components are calculated by dividing revenue, less royalties and operating expenses by the Company’s sales volume during the period. Netback including commodity contracts is calculated by adjusting netback from operations by the realized gains or losses received from commodity contracts during the period. Netback is a non-GAAP ratio but it is commonly used by oil and gas companies to illustrate the unit contribution of each barrel produced. The Company believes that the netback is a useful supplemental measure of the cash flow generated on each barrel of oil equivalent that is produced in its operations. However, non-GAAP measures and non-GAAP ratios do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures or ratios used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons.

The following is the reconciliation of the non-GAAP ratio netback from operations to net income (loss) from continuing operations, which the Company considers to be the most directly comparable financial measure that is disclosed in the Company’s financial statements:

Adjusted funds flow is calculated as cash from operating activities excluding changes in non-cash operating working capital and interest expense. The Company considers this a key measure as it demonstrates its ability to generate funds from operations necessary for future growth excluding the impact from short-term fluctuations in the collection of accounts receivable and the payment of accounts payable and financing costs. The following is the reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure adjusted funds flow to the comparable financial measures disclosed in the Company’s financial statements:

(US $000) |  | Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |
|  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Cash flow from continuing operations |  |  | 8,314 |  |  |  | 1,649 |  |  |  | 9,557 |  |  |  | 3,013 |

Cautionary Statements

In this news release and the Company’s other public disclosure:

| (a) | The Company’s natural gas production is reported in thousands of cubic feet (“Mcfs”). The Company also uses references to barrels (“Bbls”) and barrels of oil equivalent (“Boes”) to reflect natural gas liquids and oil production and sales. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A Boe conversion ratio of 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.
| (b) | Discounted and undiscounted net present value of future net revenues attributable to reserves do not represent fair market value.
| (c) | Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves.
| (d) | The Company discloses peak and 30-day initial production rates and other short-term production rates. Readers are cautioned that such production rates are preliminary in nature and are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery.
