Ovintiv™ Cautionary Statements For convenience, references in this presentation to "Ovintiv", the "Company", "we”, “us” and “our” may, where applicable, refer only to or include any relevant direct and indirect subsidiary entities and partnerships ("Subsidiaries") of Ovintiv Inc., and the assets, activities and initiatives of such Subsidiaries. The terms "include", "includes", "including" and "included" are to be construed as if they were immediately followed by the words "without limitation", except where explicitly stated otherwise. The term "liquids" is used to represent oil, NGLs and condensate. The term "condensate" refers to plant condensate. The conversion of natural gas volumes to barrels of oil equivalent ("BOE") is on the basis of six thousand cubic feet to one barrel. BOE is based on a generic energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent economic value equivalency at the wellhead. Readers are cautioned that BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. There is no certainty that Ovintiv will drill all gross premium well inventory locations and if drilled there is no certainty that such locations will result in additional oil and gas reserves or production. The locations on which Ovintiv will actually drill wells, including the number and timing thereof, is ultimately dependent upon the availability of capital, regulatory and partner approvals, seasonal restrictions, equipment and personnel, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, transportation constraints and other factors. Reserves are the estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations, from a given date forward, based on an analysis of drilling, geological, geophysical and engineering data; the use of established technology; and specified economic conditions, which are generally accepted as being reasonable. Proved reserves are those reserves which can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. All reserves estimates referenced in this presentation are effective as of December 31, 2021 and prepared by qualified reserves evaluators in accordance with United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regulations. Detailed U.S. protocol disclosure, as well as additional information relating to risks associated with the estimates of reserves, is contained in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain measures in this presentation do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by U.S. GAAP and, therefore, are considered non-GAAP measures. These measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These measures have been provided for meaningful comparisons between current results and other periods and should not be viewed as a substitute for measures reported under U.S. GAAP. For additional information regarding non-GAAP measures, including reconciliations, see the Company's website and Ovintiv's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed on SEDAR and EDGAR. This presentation contains references to non-GAAP measures as follows: • • • • Non-GAAP Cash Flow, Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow and Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow Yield - Non-GAAP Cash Flow (or Cash Flow) is defined as cash from (used in) operating activities excluding net change in other assets and liabilities, net change in non-cash working capital and current tax on sale of assets. Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow (or Free Cash Flow) is Non-GAAP Cash Flow in excess of capital expenditures, excluding net acquisitions and divestitures. Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow Yield is annualized Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow compared to current market capitalization. Management believes these measures are useful to the company and its investors as a measure of operating and financial performance across periods and against other companies in the industry, and are an indication of the company's ability to generate cash to finance capital programs, to service debt and to meet other financial obligations. These measures may be used, along with other measures, in the calculation of certain performance targets for the company's management and employees. Due to the forward-looking nature of projected free cash flow used herein, management cannot reliably predict certain of the necessary components of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, such as changes in operating assets and liabilities. Accordingly, Ovintiv is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures. Amounts excluded from this non-GAAP measure in future periods could be significant. Reinvestment Ratio is a non-GAAP measure which is calculated as the percentage of Non-GAAP Cash Flow allocated to capital expenditures. Upstream Operating Cash Flow, excluding Risk Management and Upstream Operating Free Cash Flow - Upstream Operating Cash Flow, excluding Risk Management is a measure that adjusts the USA and Canadian Operations revenues for production, mineral and other taxes, transportation and processing expense, operating expense and the impacts of realized risk management activities. It is calculated as total upstream operating income excluding upstream depreciation, depletion and amortization, and the impact of risk management activities. Upstream Operating Free Cash Flow is defined as Upstream Operating Cash Flow, excluding Risk Management, in excess of upstream capital investment, excluding net acquisitions and divestitures. Management monitors these measures as it reflects operating performance and measures the amount of cash generated from the Company's upstream operations. Total Costs is a non-GAAP measure which includes the summation of production, mineral and other taxes, upstream transportation and processing expense, upstream operating expense and administrative expense, excluding the impact of long-term incentive, restructuring and legal costs, and current expected credit losses. It is calculated as total operating expenses excluding non-upstream operating costs and non-cash items, which include operating expenses from the Market Optimization and Corporate and Other segments, depreciation, depletion and amortization, impairments, accretion of asset retirement obligation, long-term incentive, restructuring and legal costs, and current expected credit losses. When presented on a per BOE basis, Total Costs is divided by production volumes. Management believes this measure is useful to the company and its investors as a measure of operational efficiency across periods. Net Debt, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA - Net Debt is defined as long-term debt, including the current portion, less cash and cash equivalents. Management uses this measure as a substitute for total long-term debt in certain internal debt metrics as a measure of the company's ability to service debt obligations and as an indicator of the company's overall financial strength. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as trailing 12-month net earnings (loss) before income taxes, DD&A, impairments, accretion of asset retirement obligation, interest, unrealized gains/losses on risk management, foreign exchange gains/losses, gains/losses on divestitures and other gains/losses. Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is monitored by management as an indicator of the company's overall financial strength. 12
