1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SEGMENTED DISCLOSURES |
Cenovus Energy Inc. (“Cenovus” or the “Company”) is an integrated energy company with crude oil and natural gas production operations in Canada and the Asia Pacific region, and upgrading, refining and marketing operations in Canada and the United States (“U.S.”).
Cenovus is incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act and its common shares and common share purchase warrants are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the New York Stock Exchange. Cenovus’s cumulative redeemable preferred shares series 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 are listed on the TSX. The executive and registered office is located at 4100, 225 6 Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 1N2. Information on the Company’s basis of preparation for these interim Consolidated Financial Statements is found in Note 2.
Management has determined the operating segments based on information regularly reviewed for the purposes of decision making, allocating resources and assessing operational performance by Cenovus’s chief operating decision maker. The Company’s operating segments are aggregated based on their geographic locations, the nature of the businesses or a combination of these factors. The Company evaluates the financial performance of its operating segments primarily based on operating margin.
The Company operates through the following reportable segments:
Upstream Segments
•Oil Sands, includes the development and production of bitumen and heavy oil in northern Alberta and Saskatchewan. Cenovus’s oil sands assets include Foster Creek, Christina Lake, Sunrise, Lloydminster thermal and Lloydminster conventional heavy oil assets. Cenovus jointly owns and operates pipeline gathering systems and terminals through the equity-accounted investment in Husky Midstream Limited Partnership (“HMLP”). The sale and transportation of Cenovus’s production and third-party commodity trading volumes are managed and marketed through access to capacity on third-party pipelines and storage facilities in both Canada and the U.S. to optimize product mix, delivery points, transportation commitments and customer diversification.
•Conventional, includes assets rich in natural gas liquids (“NGLs”) and natural gas within the Elmworth-Wapiti, Kaybob‑Edson, Clearwater and Rainbow Lake operating areas in Alberta and British Columbia and interests in numerous natural gas processing facilities. Cenovus’s NGLs and natural gas production is marketed and transported, with additional third-party commodity trading volumes, through access to capacity on third-party pipelines, export terminals and storage facilities. These provide flexibility for market access to optimize product mix, delivery points, transportation commitments and customer diversification.
•Offshore, includes offshore operations, exploration and development activities in China and the east coast of Canada, as well as the equity-accounted investment in Husky-CNOOC Madura Ltd. (“HCML”), which is engaged in the exploration for and production of NGLs and natural gas in offshore Indonesia.
Downstream Segments
•Canadian Refining, includes the owned and operated Lloydminster upgrading and asphalt refining complex, which converts heavy oil and bitumen into synthetic crude oil, diesel, asphalt and other ancillary products. Cenovus also owns and operates the Bruderheim crude-by-rail terminal and two ethanol plants. The Company’s commercial fuels business across Canada is included in this segment. Cenovus markets its production and third-party commodity trading volumes in an effort to use its integrated network of assets to maximize value.
•U.S. Refining, includes the refining of crude oil to produce gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, asphalt and other products at the wholly-owned Lima, Superior and Toledo refineries, and the jointly-owned Wood River and Borger refineries, held through WRB Refining LP (“WRB”), a jointly owned entity with operator Phillips 66. Cenovus markets some of its own and third-party refined products including gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and asphalt.
Corporate and Eliminations
Corporate and Eliminations, includes Cenovus-wide costs for general and administrative, financing activities, gains and losses on risk management for corporate related derivative instruments and foreign exchange. Eliminations include adjustments for feedstock and internal usage of crude oil, natural gas, condensate, other NGLs and refined products between segments; transloading services provided to the Oil Sands segment by the Company’s crude-by-rail terminal; the sale of condensate extracted from blended crude oil production in the Canadian Refining segment and sold to the Oil Sands segment; and unrealized profits in inventory. Eliminations are recorded based on market prices.

B) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” (“IFRS 18”), which will replace International Accounting Standard 1, “Presentation of Financial Statements”. IFRS 18 will establish a revised structure for the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and improve comparability across entities and reporting periods.
IFRS 18 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. The standard is to be applied retrospectively, with certain transition provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting IFRS 18 on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
On May 30, 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9, “Financial Instruments”, and IFRS 7, “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”. The amendments include clarifications on the derecognition of financial liabilities and the classification of certain financial assets.

On June 26, 2024, Cenovus renewed its existing committed credit facility to extend the maturity dates by more than one year. The committed credit facility consists of a $2.2 billion tranche maturing on June 26, 2027, and a $3.3 billion tranche maturing on June 26, 2028. As at June 30, 2024, no amount was drawn on the credit facility (December 31, 2023 – $nil).
As at June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all of the terms of its debt agreements. Under the terms of Cenovus’s committed credit facility, the Company is required to maintain a total debt to capitalization ratio, as defined in the agreement, not to exceed 65 percent. The Company is below this limit.
C) Capital Structure
Cenovus’s capital structure consists of shareholders’ equity plus Net Debt. Net Debt includes the Company’s short-term borrowings, and the current and long-term portions of long-term debt, net of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Net Debt is used in managing the Company’s capital structure. The Company’s objectives when managing its capital structure are to maintain financial flexibility, preserve access to capital markets, ensure its ability to finance internally generated growth and to fund potential acquisitions, while maintaining the ability to meet the Company’s financial obligations as they come due. To ensure financial resilience, Cenovus may, among other actions, adjust capital and operating spending, draw down on its credit facilities or repay existing debt, adjust dividends paid to shareholders, purchase the Company’s common shares or preferred shares for cancellation, issue new debt, or issue new shares.
Cenovus monitors its capital structure and financing requirements using, among other things, Total Debt, Net Debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation, depletion and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), Net Debt to Adjusted Funds Flow and Net Debt to Capitalization. These measures are used to steward Cenovus’s overall debt position as measures of Cenovus’s overall financial strength.
Cenovus targets a Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio and a Net Debt to Adjusted Funds Flow ratio of approximately 1.0 times and Net Debt at or below $4.0 billion over the long-term at a West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) price of US$45.00 per barrel. These measures may fluctuate periodically outside this range due to factors such as persistently high or low commodity prices.

For the periods ended June 30, 2024
In connection with the transaction with BP Canada Energy Group ULC (“bp Canada”) to purchase the remaining 50 percent interest in Sunrise Oil Sands Partnership (“SOSP”), Cenovus agreed to make quarterly variable payments totaling up to $600 million, from SOSP to bp Canada for up to eight quarters subsequent to August 31, 2022, when the average Western Canadian Select (“WCS”) price in a quarter exceeds $52.00 per barrel. The quarterly payment is calculated as $2.8 million plus the difference between the average WCS price less $53.00 multiplied by $2.8 million, for any of the eight quarters the average WCS price is equal to or greater than $52.00 per barrel. If the average WCS price is less than $52.00 per barrel, no payment will be made for that quarter. The maximum payment over the remaining term of the contract is $40 million.
The variable payment will be re-measured to fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded to re-measurement of contingent payments.
Payments made during the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $157 million for the quarterly payment periods ending November 30, 2023, and February 29, 2024.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
Cenovus’s financial assets and financial liabilities consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accrued revenues, restricted cash, risk management assets and liabilities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, short-term borrowings, lease liabilities, contingent payments, long-term debt, certain portions of other assets and certain portions of other liabilities. Risk management assets and liabilities arise from the use of derivative financial instruments.
A) Fair Value of Non-Derivative Financial Instruments
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accrued revenues, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and short-term borrowings approximate their carrying amount due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
The fair values of restricted cash, certain portions of other assets and certain portions of other liabilities approximate their carrying amount due to the specific non-tradeable nature of these instruments.
Long-term debt is carried at amortized cost. The estimated fair value of long-term debt was determined based on period-end trading prices of long-term debt on the secondary market (Level 2). As at June 30, 2024, the carrying value of Cenovus’s long-term debt was $7.3 billion and the fair value was $6.7 billion (December 31, 2023, carrying value – $7.1 billion; fair value – $6.6 billion).
The Company classifies certain private equity investments as FVOCI as they are not held for trading and fair value changes are not reflective of the Company’s operations. These assets are carried at fair value in other assets. Fair value is determined based on recent market activity, which may include equity transactions of the entity when available (Level 3).
The following table provides a reconciliation of changes in the fair value of private equity investments classified as FVOCI:

Acquisitions | 2 | | |
Changes in Fair Value | 140 | | |
As at June 30, 2024 | 273 | | |
B) Fair Value of Risk Management Assets and Liabilities
Risk management assets and liabilities are carried at fair value in accounts receivable and accrued revenues, accounts payable and accrued liabilities (for short-term positions), other assets and other liabilities (for long-term positions). Changes in fair value are recorded in (gain) loss on risk management.
The Company’s risk management assets and liabilities consist of crude oil, condensate, natural gas, and refined product futures, as well as renewable power, power and foreign exchange contracts. The Company may also enter into swaps, forwards, and options to manage commodity, foreign exchange and interest rate exposures.
Crude oil, natural gas, condensate, refined product and power contracts are recorded at their estimated fair value based on the difference between the contracted price and the period-end forward price for the same commodity, using quoted market prices or the period-end forward price for the same commodity, extrapolated to the end of the term of the contract (Level 2). The fair value of foreign exchange rate contracts is calculated using external valuation models that incorporate observable market data and foreign exchange forward curves (Level 2).

Realized and unrealized gains and losses on risk management are recorded in the reportable segment to which the derivative instrument relates.
D) Fair Value of Contingent Payments
The variable payment (Level 3) is carried at fair value. Fair value is estimated by calculating the present value of the expected future cash flows using an option pricing model, which assumes the probability distribution for WCS is based on the volatility of WTI options, volatility of Canadian-U.S. foreign exchange rate options and both WTI and WCS futures pricing that was discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate. Fair value of the variable payment was calculated by Cenovus’s internal valuation team, which consists of individuals who are knowledgeable and have experience in fair value techniques. As at June 30, 2024, the fair value of the variable payment was estimated to be $40 million, applying a credit-adjusted risk-free rate of 5.3 percent.
As at June 30, 2024, average WCS forward pricing for the remaining term of the variable payment is $91.87 per barrel. The average volatility of WTI options and the Canadian-U.S. foreign exchange rates was 35.7 percent and 4.9 percent, respectively. A sensitivity analysis for the following inputs to the option pricing model was performed, with fluctuations in all other variables held constant, and found to have no impact on earnings before income tax:
•A $10.00 per barrel increase or decrease in WCS forward prices.
•A 10 percent increase or decrease in WTI option volatility.
•A five percent increase or decrease in Canadian to U.S. dollar foreign exchange rate option volatility.

B) Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the potential that the Company may incur a financial loss if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its financial or performance obligations in accordance with agreed terms. Cenovus assesses the credit risk of new counterparties and continues risk-based monitoring of all counterparties on an ongoing basis. A substantial portion of Cenovus’s accounts receivable are with customers in the oil and gas industry and are subject to normal industry credit risks.
As at June 30, 2024, approximately 77 percent (December 31, 2023 – 83 percent) of the Company’s accounts receivable and accrued revenues were with investment grade counterparties, and 98 percent of the Company’s accounts receivable were outstanding for less than 60 days.

B) Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
Cenovus is involved in a limited number of legal claims associated with the normal course of operations. Cenovus believes that any liabilities that might arise from such matters, to the extent not provided for, are not likely to have a material effect on its interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
Income Tax Matters
The tax regulations and legislation and interpretations thereof in the various jurisdictions in which Cenovus operates are continually changing. As a result, there are usually a number of tax matters under review. Management believes that the provision for taxes is adequate.

24. PRIOR PERIOD REVISIONS |
Certain comparative information presented in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and segment disclosures was revised for classification changes.
In September 2023, the Company made adjustments to ensure the consistent treatment of sales between segments and to correct the elimination of these transactions on consolidation. The following adjustments were made:
•Report Conventional segment sales between segments on a gross basis, which resulted in a reclassification between gross sales and transportation and blending expense.
•Report sales of feedstock between the Oil Sands, Conventional and U.S. Refining segments on a net basis, which resulted in a reclassification between gross sales and purchased product.
Offsetting adjustments were made to the Corporate and Eliminations segment. The above items had no impact to net earnings (loss), operating margin, segment income (loss), cash flows or financial position.
It was also identified that the elimination of sales of diluent, natural gas and associated transportation costs between segments were recorded to the incorrect line item in the Corporate and Eliminations segment. The adjustment resulted in an understatement of operating expense, overstatement of purchased product and an overstatement of transportation and blending expense on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). There was no impact to net earnings (loss), operating margin, segment income (loss), cash flows or financial position.
