Journey Energy Inc. Announces Closing of Bought Deal Public Offering of Flow-Through Common Shares

Canada NewsWire

CALGARY, AB, March 18, 2022 /CNW/ - Journey Energy Inc. (TSX: JOY) (OTCQX: JRNGF ) ("Journey" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has closed the bought deal flow-through share financing that was previously announced on February 28, 2022. The full 15% over-allotment was exercised bringing the total equity issuance to 2,852,000 flow-through common shares at a price of $4.25 per share for total gross proceeds of $12,121,000. Acumen Capital Finance Partners Limited acted as the sole underwriter for the offering.

Journey will use proceeds from the Offering to incur eligible Canadian Development Expenditures ("CDE") within the meaning of the Income Tax Act in an aggregate amount of not less than the gross proceeds raised from the Offering and will renounce qualifying expenditures to purchasers of the Flow-Through Shares on or before December 31, 2022.  The Corporation's current capital expenditure plan for the year ending December 31, 2022 is to spend approximately $43 million, including the drilling of 15 (14.7 net) wells, which are comprised of: 11 (10.7 net) wells targeting light oil; three (3.0 net) wells targeting heavy oil; and one (1.0 net) well targeting conventional natural gas.  The net proceeds of the equity issuance, plus additional cash flow from operations will be used to fund drilling of the 15 wells.

The Flow-Through Shares have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS:
This press release contains forward-looking statements. The use of any of the words "anticipate", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "may", "will", "project", "should", "believe" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements.  More particularly, this press release contains statements with respect to closing of the Offering, the use of proceeds of the Offering, the tax treatment of the Flow-Through Shares and the timing of the renunciation of the development expenses.

The forward-looking statements are based on certain key expectations and assumptions made by Journey. Although Journey believes that the expectations and assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because Journey can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks. These include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the condition of the global economy, including trade, public health (including the impact of COVID-19) and other geopolitical risks; risks associated with the oil and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses, and health, safety and environmental risks); commodity price and exchange rate fluctuations and constraint in the availability of services, adverse weather or break-up conditions; uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures. Certain of these risks are set out in more detail in Journey's AIF dated March 23, 2021 and in Journey's MD&A for the period ended September 30, 2021, both of which have been filed on SEDAR and can be accessed at www.sedar.com .

The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date hereof and Journey undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable securities laws.
