Granite Oil Corp432, 222 - 3rd Ave SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Granite Oil Corp. is a dividend-paying, junior oil producer based in Calgary, Alberta that owns and operates a large, recently discovered Alberta Bakken oil pool in southern Alberta. Granite was founded in May 2015 through a Plan of Arrangement that divided DeeThree Exploration Ltd. into two pure-play companies, Granite Oil Corp. and Boulder Energy Ltd. The plan was approved by a vote of shareholders on May 14, 2015, and each new company began trading on the TSX on May 21, 2015.

The nature of Granite’s producing asset has resulted in a business model that emphasizes:

• Low technical and financial risks;
• Low annual production decline;
• Moderate capital investment aimed at maintaining overall production plus generating prudent growth appropriate to prevailing commodity prices; and
• Generating sufficient funds flow from operations at current commodity prices to pay a sustainable dividend.

Granite’s 100-percent working interest Alberta Bakken pool at Ferguson has been substantially de-risked. The property includes complete company-operated infrastructure to produce and market oil and reinject gas for enhanced oil recovery. Granite’s asset base offers potential for future growth through control of 350,000 acres of Bakken lands, 96 horizontal wells in inventory in the main pool area, plus 66 wells in a large new exploration area in the western lands.

Granite was founded with a solid balance sheet – including debt of only $45 million on a credit facility of $115 million – as well as a hedge portfolio covering approximately 50 percent of 2015 production. Granite benefits from experienced, technically able and proven leadership. This includes the same Board of Directors and many of the same senior managers who discovered, delineated and grew the Alberta Bakken play at Ferguson.

Granite’s management team has one driving motivation: to create value for shareholders by operating the Company efficiently, minimizing its production declines and maximizing its long-term cash flow and dividend-paying sustainability at the Ferguson asset. We are a team of production and engineering specialists, explorationists, technical innovators and disciplined financial managers.

We are largely the same group that discovered, explored, proved up, operated and grew the Alberta Bakken oil play at Ferguson, and initiated the EOR scheme at the property, for four years before Granite’s founding.  As Granite’s management team, we intend to continue managing the Alberta Bakken reservoir efficiently and responsibly with the goal of maximizing long-term resource recovery. As Granite moves forward and grows, what drives us will remain the same: deriving the greatest long-term value and generating investment returns for our shareholders.
