Ovintiv Inc. (NYSE:OVV) (TSX:OVV) ("Ovintiv" or the "Company") and Logan Energy Corp. ("Logan") (TSXV:LGN) today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement whereby Ovintiv will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Logan in an all-cash transaction that values Logan at approximately $890 million (C$1.26 billion) including expected Net Debt at closing. The acquisition is expected to add approximately 420 total net 10,000-foot equivalent oil well locations, and approximately 266,000 net acres (approximately 200,000 core acres, 80% undeveloped) in the Montney oil window.

Significant Synergies – The transaction is expected to generate cost synergies of approximately $60 million annually, comprised primarily of capital savings, production cost savings and overhead cost reductions. Capital cost savings are estimated at more than $2 million per well across the acquired assets, consistent with Ovintiv's current Montney well costs.
Infrastructure Ownership – Logan has 100% ownership in two new oil batteries in Simonette with combined capacity of 24 Mbbls/d, the first of which came online during the third quarter of 2026, and the second is expected to come online by the end of the first quarter of 2027. Logan also has 50% ownership at a natural gas processing facility in Simonette with total capacity of 90 MMcf/d and 65% ownership in a natural gas processing facility in Pouce Coupe with total capacity of 57 MMcf/d. Ownership in these facilities is expected to enhance Ovintiv's Montney margins and provide future growth optionality.

The Company's targeted shareholder returns remain unchanged with at least 60% of 2026 Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow expected to be returned to shareholders via share buybacks and regular dividend payments.
