Brazil’s expanding natural gas market, supported by an attractive and stable regulatory framework and fiscal regime, presents a unique opportunity for Alvopetro Energy to leverage its high-potential upstream and midstream assets. In early 2025, Alvopetro also announced a strategic entry into Western Canada focused on the prolific Mannville stack play fairway in Saskatchewan. With capital investment opportunities in Canada and Brazil, Alvopetro is on the pathway for long-term growth.
Alvopetro Energy (TSXV:ALV;OTCQX:ALVOF) is an independent energy company focused on unlocking onshore natural gas in Brazil while expanding its footprint into Canada. The company is recognized as Brazil’s first integrated onshore natural gas producer, having established a unique model that combines upstream production, midstream infrastructure and long-term sales agreements with stable pricing linked to Brent and Henry Hub benchmarks.
Since commencing production in 2020, Alvopetro has delivered strong operating results, sector-leading netbacks and consistent dividends. With a disciplined capital allocation strategy, approximately half of the cash flow from operations has been reinvested in organic growth, while the remainder has been returned to shareholders through dividends, debt reduction and share repurchases. This balance has underpinned exceptional shareholder returns, including a cumulative 1,495 percent total shareholder return since 2018.
Alvopetro’s growth is anchored by two pillars: its high-margin natural gas business in the Recôncavo Basin of Bahia, Brazil, and its newly established Western Canadian heavy oil platform. Together, these assets provide a diversified base of production and reserves, supporting near-term growth and long-term value creation.
Headquartered in Calgary, Canada, and operating in Salvador, Brazil, Alvopetro is led by a proven management team with extensive international oil and gas experience. The company is committed not only to profitable growth but also to sustainable development, investing in local communities through education, entrepreneurship, cultural programs and biodiversity initiatives.
The company’s flagship Caburé asset has historically delivered the majority of the company’s production. The project is a joint development of a conventional natural gas discovery across four blocks, two held by Alvopetro and two by its partner.
Following the first redetermination in 2024, Alvopetro’s working interest in Cabure increased to 56.2 percent, entitling the company to a larger share of production. The unitized area includes eight producing wells and all necessary production facilities. Gross unit production capacity has increased by 33 percent to 21.2 million cubic feet per day (MMcfpd), and an ongoing development program includes five additional wells, four of which have already been drilled.
Immediately north of Caburé, Murucututu is a 100 percent owned Alvopetro asset with significant growth potential. Independent reserves evaluators have assigned 2P reserves of 4.6 MMboe, with an additional 4.5 MMboe of risked best estimate contingent resources and 10.2 MMboe of risked best estimate prospective resources.
The company successfully completed the 183-A3 well in 2024 and drilled the 183-D4 well updip of the 183-A3 well in 2025, bringing the 183-D4 well online in August 2025, which achieved initial production of 953 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd). With field production facilities already in place, Alvopetro plans a multi-year development program targeting both the Gomo and Caruaçu formations, including at least six more development wells.
Alvopetro owns and operates all of the key infrastructure needed to process and deliver its natural gas. Production from Caburé and Murucututu is transported via Alvopetro’s 11-kilometre transfer pipeline to its UPGN gas processing facility, which has a capacity of more than 18 MMcfpd.
At the UPGN, condensate and water are removed, with condensate sold at a premium to Brent. Processed natural gas is delivered to the Bahiagás city gate, with onward transportation through a 15-kilometre distribution pipeline into Bahia’s Camacari industrial complex. Under the long-term gas sales agreement with Bahiagás, pricing is set quarterly based on Brent and Henry Hub benchmarks. An updated agreement, effective January 1, 2025, increased firm sales volumes by 33 percent, further securing Alvopetro’s cash flow stability.
Beyond Brazil, Alvopetro has expanded its global footprint into North America with the establishment of a new heavy oil growth platform in Western Canada. The company holds a 50 percent working interest in 27.5 sections (8,890 net acres) of Mannville conventional heavy oil lands in Alberta and Saskatchewan, in partnership with an experienced operator, where we are deploying leading edge open hole multilateral drilling technology:
The diagram above depicts the evolution of drilling technology to develop a ¼ section of land. On the far left, traditional development would have required 32 vertical wells. Technology then advanced to horizontal wells, as depicted in the middle of the diagram with 4 separate wells. Today, multilateral drilling technology (as depicted on the far right) allows for just a single well with 6+ open-hole lateral legs developing the ¼ section of land. Alvopetro’s first 2 wells drilled in Saskatchewan each included 6 lateral legs. A total of 15 km of open-hole horizontal legs were drilled.
The Mannville stack is a multi-zone fairway with shallow depths, lower geological risk and attractive drilling economics. The first two earning wells were drilled with more than 15 km of open hole and brought into production in April 2025. Two additional wells were drilled in Big Gully in July 2025, with more than 19 km of open hole, with oil sales from the new wells are expected to commence in September 2025.
With the potential for more than 100 drilling locations, the Canadian platform provides Alvopetro with a complementary source of long-term production growth.

Leading independent upstream and midstream gas developer in Brazil
Alvopetro Energy Ltd. (TSXV: ALV,OTC:ALVOF) (OTCQX: ALVOF) announces August sales volumes of 2,375 boepd, based on field estimates. In Brazil August sales volumes averaged 2,257 boepd, including natural gas sales of 12.7 MMcfpd, associated natural gas liquids sales from condensate of 132 bopd and oil sales of 9 bopd. The large relative contribution of production from our 100% Murucututu field in August relates to the start of production from our 183-D4 well which commenced production later in August. From August 20 through September 3 the 183-D4 well produced at an average rate of 162 e 3 m 3 d (5.7 MMcfpd, 954 boepd) and we recovered 5,482 barrels of completions fluid and 1,033 barrels of natural gas liquids from condensate. Over the past 24 hours the well is producing through a constant 3664"choke at an average rate of 179 e 3 m 3 d (6.3 MMcfpd, 1,052 boepd) with a 1,015 psi flowing wellhead pressure and recovered 151 barrels of condensate (total well production 1,203 boepd) and 117 barrels of completions fluid. There are 10,322 barrels of 15,806 barrels of completions fluid left to recover. Given these extremely strong production results we are currently producing the Murucututu field from this single well as we are limited by our current facility capacity at Murucututu. As we continue to monitor these initial flow results, we will be evaluating options to improve production capacity of the system to allow for more production from the Murucututu field.
In Canada , August sales volumes averaged 118 bopd from our two initial wells. We have recently added production from our most recently drilled two multi-lateral wells (1.0 net) at Big Gully that were drilled with an aggregate of over 19 kilometers of open hole reservoir contact and expect oil sales from these wells to commence in September.

Alvopetro Energy Ltd. (TSXV: ALV,OTC:ALVOF) (OTCQX: ALVOF) announces initial production results from our recently completed 183-D4 Murucututu well (100% working interest) and an operational update.
President & CEO, Corey C. Ruttan commented:
"The initial results from our 183-D4 well are extremely encouraging and have allowed us to post record daily natural gas production levels from our 100% owned Murucututu asset. This result reinforces our vision for Murucututu and our long-term growth objectives."
Operational Update
Brazil
On our 100% owned Murucututu field, the 183-D4 well was drilled in the second quarter to a total measured depth of 3,072 metres. The well encountered the Caruaçu Member of the Maracangalha Formation 106 metres structurally updip of our 183-A3 well which has been on production since the fourth quarter of 2024. Based on cased-hole gamma ray logs and normalized gas while drilling, the well encountered potential natural gas pay in the Caruaçu Member of the Maracangalha Formation, with an aggregate 61 metres total vertical depth ("TVD") of potential natural gas pay between 2,439 and 2,838 metres TVD. We completed the well in seven intervals. The well went through an initial 116-hour cleanup period, recovering 2,620 barrels of completion fluid and 132 barrels of natural gas liquids. After this initial cleanup period, we flowed the well for 70 hours at a constant 32/64"choke at an average rate of 162 e 3 m 3 /d (5.7 MMcfpd, 953 boepd) with a 1,401psi flowing wellhead pressure. During this period, we also recovered a total of 995 barrels of completions fluid and 174 barrels of natural gas liquids. Average natural gas liquids (condensate) production during the flow period was 60 boepd. The flow rate over the last hour was 161 e 3 m 3 /d (5.7 MMcfpd, 947 boepd) with 1,384 psi flowing wellhead pressure. There are 12,190 barrels of 15,806 barrels of completions fluid left to recover. Given these extremely strong production results we are currently producing the Murucututu field from this single well as we are limited by our current facility capacity at Murucututu. As we continue to monitor these initial flow results, we will be evaluating options to improve production capacity of the system to allow for more production from the Murucututu field.
Our joint development on the unitized area ("the Unit") which includes our Caburé field commenced in the second quarter and four wells (2.2 net) have now been drilled. We have just commenced the completion program and expect to have the additional production online by the end of the third quarter. These development wells were primarily drilled to extend and enhance the productive plateau of the Unit and the results will also be incorporated into future Unit working interest redeterminations. The timing of drilling the fifth development well (0.6 net) is subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals.
Development Activities – Western Canada
In June, we further expanded our joint Mannville focused land based to 17,780 gross acres (8,890 net acres) and in July, two additional multi-lateral wells (1.0 net) were drilled with an aggregate of over 19 kilometers of open hole reservoir contact. Both wells have been completed and equipped and have just commenced production. Following a clean-up flow period, we will commence oil sales from these two new wells.

July sales volumes averaged 2,418 boepd, including 2,284 boepd from Brazil (with natural gas sales of 12.9 MMcfpd, associated natural gas liquids sales from condensate of 130 bopd, and oil sales of 9 bopd) and 134 bopd from oil sales in Canada , based on field estimates.
Quarterly Natural Gas Pricing Update
Effective August 1, 2025 , our natural gas price under our long-term gas sales agreement was adjusted to BRL1.90 /m 3 and will apply to all natural gas sales from August 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025 . Based on our average heat content to date and the July 31, 2025 BRL/USD exchange rate of 5.60, our expected realized price at the new contracted price is $10.27 /Mcf, net of applicable sales taxes, a decrease of 3% from the Q2 2025 realized price of $10.62 /Mcf due mainly to reduced Henry Hub and Brent prices in the second quarter. Amounts ultimately received in equivalent USD will be impacted by exchange rates in effect during the period August 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025 .
Development Activities - Brazil
On our 100% owned Murucututu field, the 183-D4 well was drilled in the second quarter to a total measured depth of 3,072 metres. The well encountered the Caruaçu Member of the Maracangalha Formation 106 metres structurally updip of our 183-A3 well which has been on production since the fourth quarter of 2024. Based on cased-hole gamma ray logs and normalized gas while drilling, the well encountered potential natural gas pay in the Caruaçu Member of the Maracangalha Formation, with an aggregate 61 metres total vertical depth ("TVD") of potential natural gas pay between 2,439 and 2,838 meters TVD. We've now completed the well in seven intervals and expect to have the well on production later in the third quarter. A total of $3.3 million of capital expenditures are estimated on the field in the second half of 2025, including costs for the 183-D4 completion.
Our joint development on the unitized area ("the Unit") which includes our Caburé field commenced in the second quarter and three wells (1.7 net) have now been drilled. The fourth well (0.6 net) is expected to be drilled later in the third quarter. Alvopetro's share of these planned unit development costs in the second half of 2025 is anticipated to be $5.5 million . The timing of drilling the fifth development well (0.6 net) is subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals.
Development Activities – Western Canada
In June, we further expanded our joint Mannville focused land based to 17,780 gross acres (8,890 net acres) and in July, two additional multi-lateral wells (1.0 net) were drilled with an aggregate of over 19 kilometers of open hole reservoir contact. Both wells will now be completed and equipped and are expected to be on production later in the third quarter. We expect to drill our next two multi-lateral wells (1.0 net) starting later this year.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
This news release contains references to various non-GAAP financial measures, non-GAAP ratios, capital management measures and supplementary financial measures as such terms are defined in National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure . Such measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. While these measures may be common in the oil and gas industry, the Company's use of these terms may not be comparable to similarly defined measures presented by other companies. The non-GAAP and other financial measures referred to in this report should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than measures prescribed by IFRS and they are not meant to enhance the Company's reported financial performance or position. These are complementary measures that are used by management in assessing the Company's financial performance, efficiency and liquidity and they may be used by investors or other users of this document for the same purpose. Below is a description of the non-GAAP financial measures, non-GAAP ratios, capital management measures and supplementary financial measures used in this news release. For more information with respect to financial measures which have not been defined by GAAP, including reconciliations 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 .
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Operating Netback
Operating netback is calculated as natural gas, oil and condensate revenues less royalties, production expenses, and transportation expenses. This calculation is provided in the " Operating Netback " section of the Company's MD&A using our IFRS measures. The Company's MD&A may be accessed through the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca . Operating netback is a common metric used in the oil and gas industry used to demonstrate profitability from operations.
Non-GAAP Financial Ratios
Operating Netback per boe
Operating netback is calculated on a per unit basis, which is per barrel of oil equivalent ("boe"). It is a common non-GAAP measure used in the oil and gas industry and management believes this measurement assists in evaluating the operating performance of the Company. It is a measure of the economic quality of the Company's producing assets and is useful for evaluating variable costs as it provides a reliable measure regardless of fluctuations in production. Alvopetro calculated operating netback per boe as operating netback divided by total sales volumes (boe). This calculation is provided in note 3 of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and in the " Operating Netback " section of the Company's MD&A using our IFRS measures. The Company's MD&A may be accessed through the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca . Operating netback is a common metric used in the oil and gas industry used to demonstrate profitability from operations on a per boe basis.
Operating netback margin
Operating netback margin is calculated as operating netback per boe divided by the realized sales price per boe. Operating netback margin is a measure of the profitability per boe relative to natural gas, oil and condensate sales revenues per boe and is calculated as follows:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 |
Operating netback - $ per boe | 54.72 | 64.30 | 52.74 | 65.25 |
Average realized price - $ per boe | 63.20 | 71.97 | 63.43 | 74.00 |
Operating netback margin | 87 % | 89 % | 83 % | 88 % |
Funds Flow from Operations Per Share
Funds flow from operations per share is a non-GAAP ratio that includes all cash generated from operating activities and is calculated before changes in non-cash working capital, divided by the weighted average shares outstanding for the respective period. For the periods reported in this news release the cash flows from operating activities per share and funds flow from operations per share is as follows:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||
$ per share | 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 |
Per basic share: | | | | |
Cash flows from operating activities | 0.28 | 0.24 | 0.52 | 0.46 |
Funds flow from operations | 0.28 | 0.21 | 0.53 | 0.44 |
| | | | |
Per diluted share: | | | | |
Cash flows from operating activities | 0.28 | 0.24 | 0.51 | 0.45 |
Funds flow from operations | 0.27 | 0.21 | 0.52 | 0.44 |
Capital Management Measures
Funds Flow from Operations
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 however management finds that the impact of working capital items on the cash flows reduces the comparability of the metric from period to period. A reconciliation of funds flow from operations to cash flows from operating activities is as follows:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 |
Cash flows from operating activities | 10,473 | 8,860 | 19,290 | 17,073 |
Changes in non-cash working capital | (107) | (950) | 298 | (650) |
Funds flow from operations | 10,366 | 7,910 | 19,588 | 16,423 |
Net Working Capital
Net working capital is computed as current assets less current liabilities. Net working capital is a measure of liquidity, is used to evaluate financial resources, and is calculated as follows:
| | As at June 30, | |
| | 2025 | 2024 |
Total current assets | | 22,915 | 25,300 |
Total current liabilities | | (16,077) | (10,608) |
Net working capital | | 6,838 | 14,692 |
Supplementary Financial Measures
" Average realized natural gas price - $/Mcf " is comprised of natural gas sales as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the Company's natural gas sales volumes.
" Average realized NGL – condensate price - $/bbl " is comprised of condensate sales as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the Company's NGL sales volumes from condensate.
" Average realized oil price - $/bbl " is comprised of oil sales as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the Company's oil sales volumes.
" Average realized price - $/boe " is comprised of natural gas, condensate and oil sales as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the Company's total natural gas, NGL and oil sales volumes (barrels of oil equivalent).
" Dividends per share " is comprised of dividends declared, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the number of shares outstanding at the dividend record date.
" Royalties per boe " is comprised of royalties, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total natural gas, NGL and oil sales volumes (barrels of oil equivalent).
" Production expenses per boe " is comprised of production expenses, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total natural gas, NGL and oil sales volumes (barrels of oil equivalent).
" Transportation expenses per boe " is comprised of transportation expenses, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total natural gas, NGL and oil sales volumes (barrels of oil equivalent).
BOE Disclosure
The term barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet per barrel (6 Mcf/bbl) of natural gas to barrels of oil equivalence is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. All boe conversions in this news release are derived from converting gas to oil in the ratio mix of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil.
Contracted Natural Gas Volumes
The 2025 contracted daily firm volumes under Alvopetro's long-term gas sales agreement of 400 e 3 m 3 /d (before any provisions for take or pay allowances) represents contracted volumes based on contract referenced natural gas heating value. Alvopetro's reported natural gas sales volumes are prior to any adjustments for heating value of Alvopetro natural gas. Alvopetro's natural gas is approximately 7.8% higher than the contract reference heating value. Therefore, to satisfy the contractual firm deliveries Alvopetro would be required to deliver approximately 371e 3 m 3 /d (13.1MMcfpd).
Well Results
Data obtained from the 183-D4 well identified in this press release, including hydrocarbon shows, cased-hole logging data, and potential net pay should be considered preliminary until testing, detailed analysis and interpretation has been completed. Hydrocarbon shows can be seen during the drilling of a well in numerous circumstances and do not necessarily indicate a commercial discovery or the presence of commercial hydrocarbons in a well. There is no representation by Alvopetro that the data relating to the 183-D4 well contained in this press release is necessarily indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery. The reader is cautioned not to unduly rely on such data as such data may not be indicative of future performance of the well or of expected production or operational results for Alvopetro in the future.

A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet per barrel (6 Mcf/bbl) of natural gas to barrels of oil equivalence is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. All boe conversions in this news release are derived from converting gas to oil in the ratio mix of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil.

Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Language
This news release contains forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The use of any of the words "will", "expect", "intend", "plan", "may", "believe", "estimate", "forecast", "anticipate", "should" and other similar words or expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information. Forward–looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, should not be read as guarantees of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of whether or not such results will be achieved. A number of factors could cause actual results to vary significantly from the expectations discussed in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect current assumptions and expectations regarding future events. Accordingly, when relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions, Alvopetro cautions readers not to place undue reliance on these statements, as forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties. More particularly and without limitation, this news release contains forward-looking information concerning the Company's dividends, plans for dividends in the future, the timing and amount of such dividends and the expected tax treatment thereof. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon assumptions and judgments with respect to the future including, but not limited to the success of future drilling, completion, testing, recompletion and development activities and the timing of such activities, the performance of producing wells and reservoirs, well development and operating performance, expectations and assumptions concerning the timing of regulatory licenses and approvals, equipment availability, environmental regulation, including regulations relating to hydraulic fracturing and stimulation, the ability to monetize hydrocarbons discovered, the outlook for commodity markets and ability to access capital markets, foreign exchange rates, the outcome of any disputes, the outcome of redeterminations, general economic and business conditions, forecasted demand for oil and natural gas, the impact of global pandemics, weather and access to drilling locations, the availability and cost of labour and services, and the regulatory and legal environment and other risks associated with oil and gas operations. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect. Actual results achieved during the forecast period will vary from the information provided herein as a result of numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors. Current and forecasted natural gas nominations are subject to change on a daily basis and such changes may be material. In addition, the declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Although we believe 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 we 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 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, reliance on industry partners, availability of equipment and personnel, uncertainty surrounding timing for drilling and completion activities resulting from weather and other factors, changes in applicable regulatory regimes and health, safety and environmental risks), commodity price and foreign exchange rate fluctuations, market uncertainty associated with trade or tariff disputes, and general economic conditions. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect. Although Alvopetro believes that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking information is based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking information because Alvopetro can give no assurance that it will prove to be correct. Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.

Brossard (Québec) TheNewswire - le 5 septembre 2025 - CORPORATION CHARBONE HYDROGÈNE (TSXV: CH,OTC:CHHYF OTCQB: CHHYF, FSE: K47 ) (« Charbone » ou la « Société »), une compagnie spécialisée dans la production et la distribution d'hydrogène vert, est heureuse d'annoncer la signature, le 4 septembre 2025, d'une convention d'achat d'actifs visant l'acquisition d'équipements opérationnels de production et de ravitaillement en hydrogène au Québec. Cette acquisition stratégique permettra à Charbone d'accélérer la mise en service de la phase 1 de son usine phare de Sorel-Tracy et de produire et livrer ses premières ventes d'hydrogène industriel de haute pureté (UHP) au cours du prochain trimestre.
Les équipements, seront démantelés, convertis et relocalisés à Sorel-Tracy.
Cette transaction fait suite à la signature par Charbone d' une facilité de capital de construction non dilutive de 50 millions USD annoncée le 1er mai et 4 juin 2025. Bien que cette facilité soit destinée à un financement de projet plus large plutôt qu'à cet achat d'équipements, elle démontre la position de capital renforcée de Charbone et sa capacité à étendre son plan de développement global.
Points saillants pour les investisseurs clés
Échéancier accéléré : La réutilisation des équipements en opération réduit les coûts d'installation des nouveaux équipements — permettant une production d'ici le début du T4 2025
Processus de sélection : Charbone a été sélectionné comme acheteur de l'équipement en échange de 1 M$ en actions de Charbone dans le cadre d'une partie du prix d'achat à un prix d'émission égal au cours du marché des actions de Charbone à la Bourse de croissance TSX à la date effective, plus la balance en espèces payable en 3 tranches, avec un tiers du paiement à la date effective et le reste payé sur deux ans — préservant la trésorerie pour la croissance.
Progrès opérationnels : Le raccordement au réseau est complété; Hydro-Québec a installé le compteur d'énergie le 22 juillet et complété l'interconnexion le 13 août, tandis que la Ville de Sorel-Tracy a complété le raccordement d'eau à son réseau principal, fournissant ainsi au site les deux éléments nécessaires à la production d'hydrogène.
Détails du placement privé
Par ailleurs, Charbone est heureuse d'annoncer la clôture séquentielle de son placement privé sans intermédiaire de 1 M$ (le « placement d'actions »). La Société a déjà obtenu 0,5 M$ pour accélérer l'achèvement de son usine phare de production d'hydrogène vert à Sorel-Tracy, au Québec.
La première tranche comprenait l'émission de 7 699 666 unités. Une deuxième tranche, portant sur les 0,5 M$ restants, devrait être clôturée d'ici le 15 octobre 2025.
Le produit de l'émission d'actions sera principalement affecté à l'achat par la Société des équipements d'hydrogène, à la réinstallation sur le site de Sorel-Tracy, au développement des infrastructures et aux besoins généraux en fonds de roulement.
Chacune des unités offertes (chacune une « unit »), au prix de 0,06 $ l'unité, était composée d'une action ordinaire de la Société (chacune une « action unitaire ») et d'un bon de souscription d'action ordinaire (chacun un « bon de souscription »). Chaque bon de souscription donne droit à son porteur d'acheter une action ordinaire supplémentaire de la Société au prix d'exercice de 0,08 $ pendant une période de 24 mois suivant la date de clôture du placement (la « date de clôture »). À la date de clôture, la Société a payé des commissions d'intermédiaires de 17 222 $ et a émis 287 040 bons de souscription à des intermédiaires inscrits dans le cadre de la vente de certaines unités à des souscripteurs qualifiés qu'ils ont présentés à la Société. Les Unités sont offertes aux termes des dispenses d'« investisseur qualifié » et d'« investissement d'une somme minimale » prévues au èglement 45-106 sur les dispenses de prospectus . Toutefois, la Société se réserve le droit de ne pas accepter des montants de souscription inférieurs à 5 000 $ (83 333 unités) afin d'éviter des frais administratifs disproportionnés
La clôture de l'offre d'actions demeure soumise à l'approbation de la Bourse de croissance TSX et à d'autres conditions de clôture habituelles. La Société pourrait clôturer une deuxième tranche dans les prochains jours, mais au plus tard le 15 octobre 2025. Tous les titres émis dans le cadre de l'offre sont assujettis à une période de détention légale de quatre mois et un jour au Canada après la date de clôture

(TheNewswire)
Brossard, Quebec TheNewswire - September 5, 2025 Charbone Hydrogen Corporation (TSXV: CH,OTC:CHHYF; OTCQB: CHHYF; FSE: K47) (the "Company" or "CHARBONE "), a company focused on green hydrogen production and distribution, is pleased to announce it has signed, on September 4, 2025, an Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire operational hydrogen production and refuelling equipment in Quebec. The strategic acquisition will enable CHARBONE to fast-track the commissioning of CHARBONE's flagship Sorel-Tracy facility phase 1 and empower CHARBONE to produce and deliver first industrial high purity hydrogen (UHP) sales in the upcoming quarter.
The equipment, currently in use will be dismantled, repurposed and relocated to Sorel-Tracy .
This transaction follows CHARBONE's signing of a non-dilutive USD 50 million construction capital facility announced on May 1 and June 4, 2025. While this facility is earmarked for broader project financing rather than this equipment purchase, it demonstrates CHARBONE's strengthened capital position and ability to scale up its overall development plan.
Key Investor Highlights
Accelerated Timeline : Repurposing proven operating equipment reduces installation costs of new equipment — enabling production by early Q4 2025
Selection Process : CHARBONE has been selected as the buyer of the equipment as the seller has accepted $1M in CHARBONE stock as part of a portion of the purchase price at an issue price equal to the market price of CHARBONE's shares on the TSX Venture Exchange on the effective date plus a cash balance payable in 3 tranches payment , with one-third payment on the effective date and the remaining paid over two years — preserving cash for growth.
Operational Progress : Grid connection is completed; Hydro-Québec installed the energy meter on July 22, and completed the interconnection on August 13, while the Town of Sorel-Tracy completed the water connection to its main system, providing the site with the two elements needed for hydrogen production.
Private Placement Details
Additionally, CHARBONE is pleased to announce the sequential closings of its $1M non-brokered private placement (the "Equity Offering"). The Company has already secured $0.5 million to accelerate the completion of its flagship green hydrogen production facility in Sorel-Tracy, Quebec.
The initial tranche involved the issuance of 7,699,666 units. A second tranche for the remaining $0.5M is expected to close by October 15, 2025.
The proceeds from the Equity Offering will be primarily allocated to the Company's purchase of the operating hydrogen equipment, re-installation at the Sorel-Tracy site, and infrastructure development, and general working capital requirements.
Each of the units offered (each a Unit "), priced at $0.06 per Unit, included one common share of the Company (each, a " Unit Share ") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a " Warrant "). Each Warrant gives the holder the right to buy one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $ 0.08 for 24 months after the closing date of the Offering (the Closing Date "). At the Closing Date, the Company paid a finder's fee of $17,222 and issued 287,040 finder's warrants to registered dealers related to the sale of certain Units to qualified subscribers introduced by such dealers. The Units were offered under the "accredited investor" exemptions of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (in Québec, Regulation 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions ). However, the Company reserves the right to decline subscription amounts below $5,000 (83,333 Units) to avoid excessive administrative costs.
The closing of the Equity Offering remains subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and other customary closing conditions. The Company may close a second tranche in the coming days, but no later than October 15, 2025. All securities issued under the Offering are subject to a statutory four-month and one-day hold period in Canada following the Closing Date
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction where such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful, including in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act ") or any applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) unless registered under the 1933 Act and relevant state laws, or if an exemption from registration is available
CEO Comment
"Investors have waited for Sorel-Tracy to move from development to revenue," said Dave Gagnon, President and CEO of CHARBONE. "By repurposing proven equipment — at a lower cost of a new build — and structuring the deal to preserve cash, we're entering execution mode with strong capital backing and minimal dilution. He continues; This acquisition positions us to deliver green and high purity hydrogen (UHP) to our industrial customers quicker, and with best-in-class operating equipment. "
Why This Matters
This acquisition signals a turning point for CHARBONE: after years of development, the company is positioned to deliver its first hydrogen revenues, leverage non-dilutive capital to scale, and capture early-mover advantages in the North American green hydrogen market.

(TheNewswire)
Brossard, Quebec, September 4, 2025 TheNewswire - Charbone Hydrogen Corporation (TSXV: CH,OTC:CHHYF; OTCQB: CHHYF; FSE: K47) (the "Company" or "CHARBONE "), a company focused on green hydrogen production and distribution, is pleased to announce it has signed, on September 4, 2025, an Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire operational hydrogen production and refuelling equipment in Quebec. The strategic acquisition will enable CHARBONE to fast-track the commissioning of CHARBONE's flagship Sorel-Tracy facility phase 1 and empower CHARBONE to produce and deliver first industrial high purity hydrogen (UHP) sales in the upcoming quarter.
The equipment, currently in use will be dismantled, repurposed and relocated to Sorel-Tracy .
This transaction follows CHARBONE's signing of a non-dilutive USD 50 million construction capital facility announced on May 1 and June 4, 2025. While this facility is earmarked for broader project financing rather than this equipment purchase, it demonstrates CHARBONE's strengthened capital position and ability to scale up its overall development plan.
Key Investor Highlights
Accelerated Timeline : Repurposing Harnois' proven operating equipment reduces installation costs of new equipment — enabling production by early Q4 2025
Selection Process : CHARBONE has been selected as the buyer of the equipment by accepting $1M in CHARBONE stock as part of a portion of the purchase price at an issue price equal to the market price of CHARBONE's shares on the TSX Venture Exchange on the effective date plus a cash balance payable in 3 tranches payment , with one-third payment on the effective date and the remaining paid over two years — preserving cash for growth.
Operational Progress : Grid connection is completed; Hydro-Québec installed the energy meter on July 22, and completed the interconnection on August 13, while the Town of Sorel-Tracy completed the water connection to its main system, providing the site with the two elements needed for hydrogen production.
Private Placement Details
Additionally, CHARBONE is pleased to announce the sequential closings of its $1M non-brokered private placement (the "Equity Offering"). The Company has already secured $0.5 million to accelerate the completion of its flagship green hydrogen production facility in Sorel-Tracy, Quebec.
The initial tranche involved the issuance of 7,699,666 units. A second tranche for the remaining $0.5M is expected to close by October 15, 2025.
The proceeds from the Equity Offering will be primarily allocated to the Company's purchase of the operating hydrogen equipment from Harnois, re-installation at the Sorel-Tracy site, and infrastructure development, and general working capital requirements.
Each of the units offered (each a Unit "), priced at $0.06 per Unit, included one common share of the Company (each, a " Unit Share ") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a " Warrant "). Each Warrant gives the holder the right to buy one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $ 0.08 for 24 months after the closing date of the Offering (the Closing Date "). At the Closing Date, the Company paid a finder's fee of $17,222 and issued 287,040 finder's warrants to registered dealers related to the sale of certain Units to qualified subscribers introduced by such dealers. The Units were offered under the "accredited investor" exemptions of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (in Québec, Regulation 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions ). However, the Company reserves the right to decline subscription amounts below $5,000 (83,333 Units) to avoid excessive administrative costs.
The closing of the Equity Offering remains subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and other customary closing conditions. The Company may close a second tranche in the coming days, but no later than October 15, 2025. All securities issued under the Offering are subject to a statutory four-month and one-day hold period in Canada following the Closing Date
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction where such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful, including in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act ") or any applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act) unless registered under the 1933 Act and relevant state laws, or if an exemption from registration is available
CEO Comment
"Investors have waited for Sorel-Tracy to move from development to revenue," said Dave Gagnon, President and CEO of CHARBONE. "By repurposing proven equipment — at a lower cost of a new build — and structuring the deal to preserve cash, we're entering execution mode with strong capital backing and minimal dilution. He continues; This acquisition positions us to deliver green and high purity hydrogen (UHP) to our industrial customers quicker, and with best-in-class operating equipment. "
Why This Matters
This acquisition signals a turning point for CHARBONE: after years of development, the company is positioned to deliver its first hydrogen revenues, leverage non-dilutive capital to scale, and capture early-mover advantages in the North American green hydrogen market.

About Locksley Resources Limited:
Locksley Resources Limited (ASX:LKY) (OTCMKTS:LKYRF) is an ASX-listed explorer focused on critical minerals in the United States of America. The Company is actively advancing exploration across the Mojave Project in California, targeting rare earth elements (REEs) and antimony. Locksley Resources aims to generate shareholder value through strategic exploration, discovery and development of critical minerals for U.S.
Mojave Project
Located in the Mojave Desert, California, the Mojave Project comprises over 240 claims across two contiguous prospect areas, namely, the North Block-Northeast Block and the El Campo Prospect. The North Block directly abuts claims held by MP Materials, while El Campo lies along strike of the Mountain Pass Mine and is enveloped by MP Materials' claims, highlighting the strong geological continuity and exploration potential of the project area.
In addition to rare earths, the Mojave Project hosts the historic "Desert Antimony Mine", which last operated in 1937. Despite the United States currently having no domestic antimony production, demand for the metal remains high due to its essential role in defense systems, semiconductors, and metal alloys. With surface samples grading up to 46% Sb as well as silver up to 1,022 g/t Ag, the Desert Mine prospect represents one of the highest-grade known antimony occurrences in the U.S.
Locksley's North American position is further strengthened by rising geopolitical urgency to diversify supply chains away from China, the global leader in both REE & antimony production. With its maiden drilling program planned, the Mojave Project is uniquely positioned to align with U.S. strategic objectives around critical mineral independence and economic security.
