CALGARY, Alberta, May 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prairie Provident Resources Inc. ("Prairie Provident" or the "Company") (TSX:PPR) announces its financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2026.

Q1 2026 REVIEW AND UPDATE

Production averaged 2,202 boe/d (61% liquids)1 for Q1 2026 as Prairie Provident has continued to focus disciplined capital spending on well and facility optimization, and liability management. Year to date, the capital efficient optimization work has flattened corporate decline at approximately 2,200 boe/d (57% oil and natural gas liquids)2;

Operating expenses were $29.86/boe for Q1 2026, a nominal increase relative to the $29.64/boe in Q1 2025, and a 16% decrease relative to the $35.75/boe in Q4 2025;

Operating netback3 for Q1 2026 was $3.5 million ($17.48/boe), a $0.2 million decrease from Q1 2025 and a $3.0 million increase from Q4 2025. The increase relative to Q4 2025 was as a result of higher realized commodity prices as well as lower operating expenses on a per boe basis;

Net loss of $3.0 million for Q1 2026, a $3.1 million reduction compared to Q1 2025. This decrease was driven by a non-cash warrant liability revaluation in the current quarter; and
