Alvopetro Announces Approval of Normal Course Issuer Bid and Automatic Share Purchase Plan

Alvopetro Announces Approval of Normal Course Issuer Bid and Automatic Share Purchase Plan

Alvopetro Energy Ltd. (TSXV: ALV) (OTCQX: ALVOF) ("Alvopetro" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") has now approved the Company's proposed normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB") and an automatic share purchase plan ("ASPP").

Pursuant to the NCIB, Alvopetro is authorized to repurchase up to 2,953,044 common shares, representing 8.1% of the common shares outstanding as of August 12, 2024 and 10% of Alvopetro's "public float", over the period commencing on August 13, 2024 and ending on the earlier of: August 12, 2025 or such earlier date as the NCIB is completed or is terminated at the Company's election. Purchases under the NCIB may be made through open market transactions on the TSXV, the OTCQX and any alternate trading systems in Canada on which the common shares are traded, based on the prevailing market price, at such times and in such quantities as the Company may determine, subject to applicable regulatory restrictions. A maximum of 5% of Alvopetro's common shares outstanding may be purchased on the OTCQX during the twelve-month term of the NCIB. Any common shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.  During the Company's previous normal course issuer bid, which ran from January 6, 2023 until January 5, 2024 (the "Prior NCIB"), the Company purchased 4,600 of its common shares. The weighted average price paid per common share in the Prior NCIB was C$6.76 .

Alvopetro has appointed Research Capital Corporation as our designated broker to conduct the NCIB purchases. In connection with the NCIB, Alvopetro has entered into the ASPP with our designated broker. The TSXV has approved the ASPP. The ASPP allows our designated broker to purchase common shares under the NCIB. The ASPP allows for the purchase of common shares under the NCIB at times when the Company may not ordinarily be permitted to purchase common shares due to regulatory restrictions and customary self-imposed blackout periods. Any purchases under the ASPP are determined by the broker at its sole discretion based on purchasing parameters set out by the Company in accordance with rules of the TSXV, applicable securities laws and the terms of the ASPP. The ASPP will terminate on the earlier of the date on which: (i) the NCIB expires; (ii) the maximum number of common shares have been purchased under the ASPP; and (iii) the Company terminates the ASPP in accordance with its terms.

Outside of the ASPP and outside of pre-determined blackout periods, common shares may continue to be purchased under the NCIB based on management's discretion, in compliance with the rules of the TSXV and applicable securities laws. All purchases made under the ASPP will be included in the number of common shares available for purchase under the NCIB.

Alvopetro has an established strategy to balance reinvestment in our business with stakeholder returns. In combination with our quarterly dividends, the NCIB provides us with further flexibility with respect to stakeholder returns. Where Alvopetro has excess cash and working capital on hand, the NCIB provides Alvopetro with discretion to repurchase our common shares for cancellation at times where our board of directors and senior management believe the market price of the common shares may not fully reflect the reflect the underlying value of the common shares and Alvopetro's business and future prospects. In such circumstances, the repurchase of common shares under the NCIB should increase the underlying value of the common shares to the remaining shareholders. In addition, purchases under the NCIB may increase liquidity to shareholders wishing to sell their common shares. As announced on August 7, 2024 , where Alvopetro's funds flow from operations (1) to be allocated to stakeholders exceeds our current base dividend ( $0.09 per common share), Alvopetro's intention is to allocate such surplus funds to common share repurchases. An initial budget of $0.5 million has been allocated based on results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and Alvopetro expects to augment this in future quarters based on results.

Alvopetro retains discretion whether to make purchases under the NCIB, and to determine the timing, amount and acceptable price of any such purchases, subject at all times to applicable regulatory requirements.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures. This news release contains a reference to funds flow from operations which is a non-GAAP capital management measure as such term is defined in National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure. It is not a recognized measure under GAAP and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. It should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than measures prescribed by IFRS and is not meant to enhance the Company's reported financial performance or position. Funds flow from operations is a non-GAAP capital management measure that includes all cash generated from operating activities and is calculated before changes in non-cash working capital. The most comparable GAAP measure to funds flow from operations is cash flows from operating activities. Management considers funds flow from operations important as it helps evaluate financial performance and demonstrates the Company's ability to generate sufficient cash to fund future growth opportunities. Funds flow from operations should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash flows from operating activities. For more information including a reconciliation to the closest comparable GAAP measure, see the "Non-GAAP Measures and Other Financial Measures" section of the Company's MD&A which may be accessed through the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca .

Saudi Aramco's Q2 Profits Dip on Lower Oil Sales and Refining Margins

Saudi Aramco (TADAWUL:2222), the world's largest oil company, attributes a 3.4 percent decline in its second quarter net income to lower crude oil sales volumes and softer refining margins.

In a Monday (August 5) press release, Aramco reported net income of US$29.07 billion, marking a slight reduction from the previous year due to the ongoing volatility in global oil markets.

Despite this dip, the company achieved a base divided of US$20.3 billion for Q2, plus a performance-linked dividend distribution of US$10.8 billion. That puts it on track for an "industry-leading" total dividend of US$124.2 billion this year.
