Fourth Quarter Highlights

“Suncor’s fourth quarter was about finishing an exceptional year strong and building momentum for 2025,” said Rich Kruger, Suncor’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Performance records were set across the company in both the quarter and for the full year, including records in upstream production, refining throughput, refined product sales and asset utilization. In addition, personnel safety and operational integrity were at or near best-ever annual performance levels. Suncor’s people, company-wide, delivered by working in a team-based, results-oriented manner. Looking ahead in 2025, we remain committed to continuing to deliver high performance results with safe, reliable and cost-effective operations to achieve our free cash flow targets and create superior shareholder value.”

Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB)

Suncor’s current NCIB will terminate on February 25, 2025. The company intends to make an application to renew the NCIB program subsequent to the expiration of its current NCIB.

Between February 26, 2024, and February 3, 2025, pursuant to Suncor’s NCIB, Suncor repurchased 56,891,592 common shares on the open market, representing the equivalent of 4.4% of its common shares as at February 12, 2024, for $3.021 billion, at a weighted average price of $53.10 per share.

The actual number of common shares that may be purchased under the NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by Suncor. The company believes that, depending on the trading price of its common shares and other relevant factors, repurchasing its own shares represents an attractive investment opportunity and is in the best interests of the company and its shareholders. The company does not expect the decision to allocate cash to repurchase shares will affect its long-term strategy.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain financial measures in this news release – namely adjusted funds from operations, adjusted operating earnings, free funds flow and net debt, and related per share or per barrel amounts – are not prescribed by GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are included because management uses the information to analyze business performance, leverage and liquidity, as applicable, and it may be useful to investors on the same basis. These non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Therefore, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise indicated, these non-GAAP financial measures are calculated and disclosed on a consistent basis from period to period. Specific adjusting items may only be relevant in certain periods.

Adjusted Operating Earnings

Adjusted operating earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts net earnings for significant items that are not indicative of operating performance. Management uses adjusted operating earnings to evaluate operating performance because management believes it provides better comparability between periods. Adjusted operating earnings are reconciled to net earnings in the news release above.

Adjusted Funds From (Used In) Operations

Adjusted funds from (used in) operations is a non-GAAP financial measure that adjusts a GAAP measure – cash flow provided by operating activities – for changes in non-cash working capital, which management uses to analyze operating performance and liquidity. Changes to non-cash working capital can be impacted by, among other factors, commodity price volatility, the timing of offshore feedstock purchases and payments for commodity and income taxes, the timing of cash flows related to accounts receivable and accounts payable, and changes in inventory, which management believe reduces comparability between periods.

Free Funds Flow

Free funds flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by taking adjusted funds from operations and subtracting capital expenditures, including capitalized interest. Free funds flow reflects cash available for increasing distributions to shareholders and reducing debt. Management uses free funds flow to measure the capacity of the company to increase returns to shareholders and to grow Suncor’s business.

Normalized Free Funds Flow

Normalized free funds flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated by taking free funds flow and normalizing it for a US$75 WTI price environment, as indicated in the table below. Management uses normalized free funds flow as a more comparable historical measure of free funds flow that holds the business environment constant to measure the company’s progress against its free funds flow growth expectations.

Net Debt and Total Debt

Net debt and total debt are non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to analyze the financial condition of the company. Total debt includes short-term debt, current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt (all of which are GAAP measures). Net debt is equal to total debt less cash and cash equivalents (a GAAP measure).
