**DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

**A. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Vermilion Energy Inc. (the "Registrant") maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Registrant's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Registrant's Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, after having evaluated the effectiveness of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report have concluded that, as of such date, the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

It should be noted that while the Registrant's Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer believe that the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance that they are effective, they do not expect that the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

**B. Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

See page 1 of the 2025 Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included as Exhibit 99.3 to this report.

**C. Auditor Attestation**

**D. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

There was no change in the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

**NOTICES REQUIRED BY RULE 104 OF REGULATION BTR**

None

**AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT**

The Registrant's Board of Directors has determined that it has at least one audit committee financial expert (as such term is defined in the rules and regulations of the Commission) serving on its Audit Committee. Manjit Sharma has been determined to be such audit committee financial expert and is independent (as such term is defined by the New York Stock Exchange's corporate governance standards).

The Commission has indicated that the designation of Manjit Sharma as an audit committee financial expert does not make him an "expert" for any purpose, impose on his any duties, obligations or liability that are greater than the duties, obligations or liability imposed on him as a member of the

Audit Committee and the Board of Directors in absence of such designation, or affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Audit Committee or Board of Directors.

**CODE OF ETHICS**

The Registrant has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which constitutes a written "code of ethics" (as that term is defined in Form 40-F), that applies to its directors, officers and employees, including its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available upon request or on the Registrant's website at *https://www.vermilionenergy.com/about-us/governance/*. In 2025, there were no amendments to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or waivers, including implicit waivers, from any provisions thereof.

**PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES**

Information about aggregate fees billed to us by our principal accountant, Deloitte LLP (PCAOB ID No. 1208) are presented under the caption "Audit Committee Matters - External audit service fees" of the Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2025 included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit-related fees. The auditors present the estimate for the annual audit related services to the Audit Committee for approval prior to undertaking the annual audit of the financial statements.

All non-audit fees were pre-approved by the Audit Committee and none were approved on the basis of the de minimis exemption set forth in Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

**RECOVERY OF ERRONEOUSLY AWARDED COMPENSATION**

The Registrant has adopted a compensation recovery policy (referred to as the "Executive Compensation Clawback Policy") as required by NYSE listing standards and pursuant to Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act. The Executive Compensation Clawback Policy is filed as Exhibit 97 to this Form 40-F. At no time during or after the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (as of the date of this Annual Report), was the Registrant required to prepare an accounting restatement that required recovery of erroneously awarded compensation pursuant to the Executive Compensation Clawback Policy and, as of December 31, 2025, there was no outstanding balance of erroneously awarded compensation to be recovered from the application of the Executive Compensation Clawback Policy to a prior restatement.

**OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS**

The Registrant does not have any commitments or obligations, including contingent obligations, arising from arrangements with unconsolidated entities or persons (which are not otherwise discussed in the Registrant's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this annual report on Form 40-F), that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, cash requirements or capital resources.

**DISCLOSURE OF CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS**

The required disclosure is included under the heading "Contractual Obligations and Commitments" in the Registrant's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this annual report on Form 40-F.

**IDENTIFICATION OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE**

The Registrant's Board of Directors has a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act which satisfies the requirements of Exchange Act Rule 10A-3. The Registrant's Audit Committee is comprised of Manjit Sharma (Chair), Corey Bieber, Stephen Larke, and Judy Steele, all of whom, in the opinion of the Registrant's Board of Directors are independent (as determined under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and the corporate governance standards of the NYSE) and are financially literate. Please refer to "Audit Committee Matters – Composition of the Audit Committee" in the Registrant's Annual Information Form attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this annual report on Form 40-F for details in connection with each of these members and their qualifications.

The members of the Audit Committee do not have fixed terms and are appointed from time to time by resolution of the directors.

The Audit Committee meets with the Registrant's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Registrant's independent auditors to review and inquire into matters affecting financial reporting, the system of internal accounting and financial controls, as well as audit procedures and audit plans. The Audit Committee also recommends to the Board of Directors which independent registered public auditing firm should be appointed by the

Registrant, and reviews and recommends to the Board of Directors for approval the Registrant's audited annual financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis.

The full text of the Audit Committee Mandate is included as Appendix C to the Registrant's Annual Information Form, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated by reference in this annual report on Form 40-F.

**NYSE STATEMENT OF GOVERNANCE DIFFERENCES**

As a Canadian corporation with securities listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), the Registrant is required to comply with all applicable Canadian requirements adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators and the TSX, and applicable rules for foreign private issuers adopted by the Commission which give effect to the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Sarbanes-Oxley").

The Registrant's corporate governance practices meet or exceed all applicable Canadian and Sarbanes-Oxley requirements and also incorporate many "best practices" derived from those required to be followed by U.S. domestic companies under the NYSE listing standards. In accordance with Section 303A.11 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the Registrant has prepared a summary of the significant ways in which its corporate governance practices differ from those required to be followed by U.S. domestic companies under the NYSE's corporate governance standards, which is accessible on the Registrant's website at *https://www.vermilionenergy.com/about-us/governance/* under the caption "Summary of Significant Corporate Governance Differences".

Presentation of Oil and Gas Information

**Oil and gas reserves and production**

------

All oil and natural gas reserve information contained in this AIF is derived from the McDaniel & Associates Report and has been prepared and presented in accordance with the *Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook* and *National Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities* ("NI 51-101"). In this AIF: (A) the net present value of future net revenues attributable to reserves do not represent the fair market value of reserves; (B) the recovery and reserve estimates of crude oil, NGL and natural gas reserves provided in this AIF are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual crude oil, natural gas and NGL reserves may be greater than or less than the estimates provided in this AIF; and (C) the estimates of reserves and future net revenue for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation.

Under NI 51-101, disclosure of production volumes should include segmentation by product type as defined in the instrument. In this AIF, references to "crude oil" and "light and medium crude oil" mean "light crude oil and medium crude oil" , "tight oil" or "heavy oil" and references to "natural gas" mean "conventional natural gas", "shale gas" or "coal bed methane".

Natural gas volumes have been converted on the basis of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent. Barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

**Initial production rates and short-term test rates**

------

This AIF discloses test rates of production for certain wells over short periods of time (i.e., five, eight or 24 hours, IP30, IP60, IP90, etc.), which are preliminary and not determinative of the rates at which those or any other wells will commence production and thereafter decline. Short-term test rates are not necessarily indicative of long-term well or reservoir performance or of ultimate recovery. Although such rates are useful in confirming the presence of hydrocarbons, they are preliminary in nature, are subject to a high degree of predictive uncertainty as a result of limited data availability and may not be representative of stabilized on-stream production rates. A pressure transient analysis or well-test interpretation has not been carried out in respect of all wells. Production over a longer period will also experience natural decline rates, which can be high in certain plays in which the Company operates, and may not be consistent over the longer term with the decline experienced over an initial production period. Initial production or test rates may also include recovered "load" fluids used in well completion stimulation operations. Actual results will differ from those realized during an initial production period or short-term test period, and the difference may be material.

Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures

This AIF includes references to certain financial and performance measures which do not have standardized meanings prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS (R)" or "IFRS Accounting Standards") and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers. These measures include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **Operating netback:** Operating netback is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated as sales less royalties, operating expense, transportation expense, PRRT expense, and realized hedging (gain) loss, and when presented on a per unit basis is a non-GAAP ratio. Management assesses operating netback as a measure of the profitability and efficiency of our field operations. More information and a reconciliation to net (loss) earnings, the most directly comparable primary financial statement measures can be found within the "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures" section of the Annual MD&A available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the website of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") at www.sec.gov.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **Capital expenditures:** Capital expenditures is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated as the sum of drilling and development costs and exploration and evaluation costs from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Management considers capital expenditures to be a useful measure of our investment in our existing asset base. More information and a reconciliation to cash flows used in investing activities, the most directly comparable primary financial statement measure can be found within the "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures" section of the Annual MD&A available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

In addition, this AIF includes references to certain financial measures which are not specified, defined, or determined under IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore considered non-GAAP and other specified financial measures. These financial measures are unlikely to be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other issuers.

**Canada Business Unit**

------

Vermilion's Canadian operations are primarily focused on the Deep Basin trend in the West Pembina region of West Central Alberta and in the Mica property straddling the Alberta and British Columbia borders. In the Deep Basin, the Company targets condensate-rich natural gas and light oil across numerous stacked formations, while at Mica, the Company targets tight oil and shale gas in the Montney formation.

Vermilion has access to ample facilities and processing capacity across the major plays in its Canadian portfolio. In the Deep Basin, Vermilion's operations are concentrated in core areas where the Company owns and operates the large majority of associated key infrastructure including pipelines, compressor stations, oil batteries and gas plants, many of which have surplus capacity for future production. Furthermore, the Company is interconnected in several locations with third party midstream infrastructure that provides significant capacity for growth. At Mica, the Company has infrastructure in place for current operations, with short-term growth plans currently underway and a long-term development plan in place targeting production of 28,000 boe/d. The Company's high degree of operating control and access to key infrastructure across our Canadian properties allows Vermilion to drive operating efficiencies in the field while supporting future growth opportunities.

As at December 31, 2025, Vermilion held an average 75% working interest in 872,859 (657,092 net) acres of developed land, and an average 84% working interest in 803,574 (672,762 net) acres of undeveloped land in Canada. Vermilion had 1,218 (900.6 net) producing conventional natural gas and shale gas wells and 525 (375.1 net) producing light and medium crude oil wells in Canada as at December 31, 2025.

During 2025, the Company closed the acquisition of Westbrick Energy Ltd. ("Westbrick"), a privately held oil and gas company operating in the Deep Basin, that was announced in December 2024. The Westbrick acquisition added approximately 1.1 million (770,000 net) acres of land and four operated gas plants with total capacity of 102 mmcf/d to Vermilion's Deep Basin asset base. The Company also divested of our Saskatchewan assets in July 2025, with net proceeds directed towards debt repayment to accelerate deleveraging efforts and strengthen Vermilion's balance sheet.

In 2025, Vermilion drilled or participated in 50 (47.9 net) crude oil and natural gas wells across our Canadian assets. In 2026, the Company plans to drill a total of 49 (44.8 net) wells in Canada, including 43 (38.8 net) wells across our Deep Basin asset and six (6.0 net) Montney wells.

**France Business Unit**

------

Vermilion entered France in 1997 and completed three additional acquisitions in subsequent years. Vermilion is the largest oil producer in the country with approximately two-thirds of the domestic market share. Vermilion's oil production in France is priced with reference to Dated Brent.

Vermilion's main producing areas in France are located in the Aquitaine Basin which is located southwest of Bordeaux, France and in the Paris Basin, located just east of Paris. The two major fields in the Paris Basin area are Champotran and Chaunoy and the two major fields in the Aquitaine Basin are Parentis and Cazaux. Vermilion operates several oil batteries in the country and, given the legacy nature of these assets, the throughput capability of these batteries exceeds any projected future requirements. Vermilion holds an average 96% working interest in 257,200 (247,955 net) acres of developed land. Vermilion had 276 (270.0 net) producing light and medium crude oil wells in France as at December 31, 2025.

In 2026, we intend to continue our ongoing program of workovers and well optimizations to maintain production by mitigating declines.

**Netherlands Business Unit**

------

Vermilion entered the Netherlands in 2004 and is the second largest onshore operator in the country. Vermilion's natural gas production in the Netherlands is priced off of the TTF index.

Vermilion's Netherlands assets consist of 24 onshore concessions (100% operated) and 15 offshore concessions (non-operated). Production consists primarily of natural gas with a small amount of associated NGLs. Vermilion's total land position in the Netherlands covers 1,312,968 (687,070 net) acres at an average 52% working interest, of which 88% is undeveloped. Vermilion had 81 (28.9 net) producing conventional natural gas wells as at December 31, 2025.

In 2025, Vermilion drilled two (1.2 net) conventional natural gas wells in the Netherlands and completed a key infrastructure optimization project which is expected to drive operating cost savings while reducing production downtime and extending production capacity in the region. Vermilion expects that its inventory of potentially high-impact exploration and development opportunities in the Netherlands will maintain or moderately grow the Company's production base in the country. In 2026, we plan to drill one (0.5 net) well in the Netherlands.

**Germany Business Unit**

------

Vermilion entered Germany in 2014 through the acquisition of a 25% non-operated interest in natural gas producing assets. In December 2016, Vermilion completed an acquisition of crude oil and natural gas producing properties that provided Vermilion with its first operated position in the country. Vermilion holds a significant undeveloped land base in Germany as a result of an extensive farm-in agreement the Company entered into in 2015. In 2021, Vermilion completed two minor acquisitions, increasing the Company's non-operated working interest in certain assets to 50%. Vermilion's natural gas production in Germany is priced off the Trading Hub Europe (THE) index, which is highly correlated to the TTF benchmark, and Vermilion's light and medium crude oil in Germany production is priced with reference to Dated Brent.

Vermilion's producing assets in Germany consist of operated and non-operated interests in 11 natural gas fields and nine light and medium crude oil fields with extensive infrastructure in place. Vermilion had 59 (49.2 net) producing light and medium crude oil wells and 25 (14.4 net) producing conventional natural gas wells as at December 31, 2025.

Vermilion's land position in northwest Germany is comprised of 106,027 (54,122 net) developed acres and 1,228,372 (650,978 net) undeveloped acres. In addition, the Company holds a 50% equity interest in Hannoversche Erdölleitung GmbH, a joint venture company established in 1959 that collects and transports crude oil through a 185 km network of infrastructure from the Hannover region to rail loading facilities in Hannover.

During 2025, Vermilion drilled one (1.0 net) conventional natural gas well as part of the Company's deep gas exploration and development program. The well encountered gas-charged, porous sand, however, the well did not achieve expected flow rates during testing and was subsequently suspended while we evaluate options to improve deliverability. In 2026, Vermilion plans to build out key infrastructure and prepare for two (1.3 net) follow-up wells at the Wisselshorst discovery in early 2027, while bringing on production from the first Wisselshorst discovery in mid-2026.

**Ireland Business Unit**

------

Vermilion has a 56.5% operated interest in the offshore Corrib natural gas field and related processing facilities located off the northwest coast of Ireland. Vermilion initially acquired an 18.5% non-operated interest in 2009. In 2018, Vermilion entered into a strategic partnership with the Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board ("CPPIB"), as a result of which Vermilion acquired an additional 1.5% working interest and assumed operatorship of Corrib. In 2023, Vermilion purchased all of the outstanding shares of Equinor Energy Ireland Limited ("EEIL") from Equinor ASA, adding an incremental 36.5% interest in the Corrib Natural Gas Project.

Corrib first began natural gas production in late December 2015. Production volumes reached full plant capacity of approximately 350 mmcf/d (gross) at the end of 2016. Production plateaued at this level until decline started at the beginning of 2018. The Corrib field constitutes 100% of Ireland's domestic natural gas production.

In 2025, the Corrib facility achieved strong run time with minimal maintenance capital requirements. In 2026, the Company will execute a more extensive maintenance program, including a planned 32-day turnaround which occurs on a five-year cycle.

**Central and Eastern Europe ("CEE") Business Unit**

------

Vermilion established its CEE business unit in 2014 with a head office in Budapest, Hungary. The CEE business unit is responsible for business development in CEE, including managing the exploration and development opportunities associated with the Company's land holdings in Hungary, Slovakia and Croatia.

Vermilion's land position in CEE consists of 387,747 (237,115 net) acres in Croatia, 12,081 (11,688 net) acres in Hungary and 97,960 (48,980 net) acres in Slovakia. Currently, 99% of Vermilion's land position in the CEE is undeveloped.

During 2025, Vermilion drilled one (1.0 net) well on the SA-10 block in Croatia to maximize utilization of the gas plant. The Company does not expect to drill additional wells in CEE in 2026.

**Australia Business Unit**

------

Vermilion holds a 100% operated working interest in the Wandoo offshore crude oil field and related production facilities, located on Western Australia's northwest shelf. Vermilion acquired its interest over two acquisitions completed in 2005 and 2007. Production is sourced from 23 producing wellbores including five dual laterals that are tied into two platforms, Wandoo 'A' and Wandoo 'B'. Wandoo 'B' is permanently manned, houses the required production facilities and incorporates 400,000 bbls of crude oil storage within the platform's concrete gravity structure. The Wandoo 'B' facilities are capable of processing 208,000 bbl/d of total fluid to separate crude oil from produced water. Vermilion's land position in the Wandoo field is comprised of 59,552 acres (gross and net).

In 2025, Vermilion did not drill any wells, and the Company does not expect to drill additional wells in Australia in 2026. The Company intends to manage its Australian production and related capital investment programs to achieve corporate targets while meeting long-term supply requirements of our customers.

General Development of the Business

**Three Year History**

------

The following describes the development of Vermilion's business over the last three completed financial years.

*2023*

Vermilion achieved annual production of 83,994 boe/d on total E&D capital expenditures of $590 million. On March 31, 2023, Vermilion completed the purchase of all of the outstanding shares of EEIL from Equinor ASA for $192 million, net of cash and working capital deficit acquired. The acquisition added an incremental 36.5% interest in the Corrib Natural Gas Project, increasing Vermilion's operated interest to 56.5%, and making Vermilion the largest provider of domestic natural gas in Ireland.

In January 2023, Vermilion increased the quarterly dividend to $0.10 per common share, effective with the Q1 2023 dividend payable in April 2023. In July 2023, Vermilion received TSX approval for renewal of the Company's NCIB, allowing the Company to purchase up to 16,308,587 common shares, representing approximately 10% of its public float as at June 28, 2023, over a twelve month period commencing on July 12, 2023. In total in 2023, Vermilion declared $65 million in dividends and repurchased 5.4 million common shares pursuant to the NCIB for a total of $96 million.

In March 2023, Vermilion closed the sale of non-core assets in southeast Saskatchewan for net proceeds of $182 million. The assets were comprised of approximately 5,500 boe/d of non - core light oil production spread across the greater Arcola and Queensdale areas of southeast Saskatchewan. The divestment was part of our strategy to re-position Vermilion for long term success by high-grading our North American inventory, reducing unit cost and accelerating the timeline of achieving our debt reduction targets.

In May 2023, the Company's operations in West Central Alberta were impacted by forest fires. In response, the Company temporarily shut-in approximately 30,000 boe/d of production while we assessed the risk to our operations. Once the immediate risk from the forest fires had eased, we inspected all of our key assets and confirmed that there was no major damage to our facilities or well sites, which allowed remaining production to be brought back online as soon as it was safe to do so.

In September 2023, the Company successfully completed the remaining inspection and repair work on our Wandoo facility and restarted production on the Wandoo platform in Australia following extended maintenance downtime.

*2024*

Vermilion achieved annual production of 84,543 boe/d on total E&D capital expenditures of $623 million. Included in E&D capital expenditures were several early stage investments that will contribute to future production growth, including successful exploration programs in Germany and Croatia.

In December 2023, Vermilion increased the quarterly dividend to $0.12 per common share, effective with the Q1 2024 dividend payable in April 2024. In March 2024, the Company announced an increase to its return of capital target to 50% of excess free cash flow on a full-year basis for 2024, from 30% of excess free cash flow previously, with a corresponding increase in share buybacks commencing immediately.

In July 2024, Vermilion received TSX approval for renewal of the NCIB, allowing the Company to purchase up to 15,689,839 common shares, representing approximately 10% of its public float as at June 28, 2024, over a twelve month period commencing on July 12, 2024. In total in 2024, Vermilion declared $75 million in dividends and repurchased 9.3 million shares pursuant to the NCIB for a total of $140 million.

In December 2024, the Company announced the strategic acquisition of Westbrick for total consideration of $1.075 billion. The Westbrick acquisition added 50,000 boe/d of stable production, and enhanced depth and quality of Vermilion's Deep Basin inventory, adding approximately 1.1 million (770,000 net) acres of land and over 700 drilling locations. The Westbrick acquisition also included four operated gas plants with total capacity of 102 mmcf/d, and provides significant operational and financial synergies given the contiguous and complementary asset base. In conjunction with the Westbrick acquisition, Vermilion announced a revised return of capital target of 40% of excess free cash flow until net debt reaches an appropriate level, at which time the payout will be increased back to 50%. The absolute amount of capital returned to Shareholders at the revised target is expected to be equivalent to our base business with a 50% return of capital target. Over the long-term, the Westbrick acquisition is expected to increase the amount of capital available for Shareholder returns. In connection with the acquisition, Vermilion entered into a new fully underwritten $250 million term loan (the "Term Loan") maturing May 2028 through a debt commitment letter with TD Securities Inc. (acting as underwriter) and a new fully underwritten US$300 million bridge facility (the "Bridge Facility") through a debt commitment letter with Royal Bank of Canada and TD Securities Inc. Availability of the Term Loan was contingent on closing of the Westbrick acquisition.

In July 2024, Vermilion released its 2024 Sustainability Report. Vermilion's reporting aligned with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure ("TCFD") relating to Governance (located in our management proxy circular for our annual meeting of Shareholders), and relating to Vermilion's Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics and Targets (located in the Annual MD&A). This information is also located in the TCFD Report section of our 2024 Sustainability Report, available online at www.vermilionenergy.com/sustainability.

*2025*

Vermilion achieved record annual production of 119,919 boe/d on total E&D capital expenditures of $635 million. The Company continues to invest in infrastructure projects that will contribute to future production growth, including expanding compression and liquids handling capacity in the Montney and building surface and pipeline infrastructure to support production from the Wisselshorst well in Germany.

In December 2024, Vermilion increased the quarterly dividend to $0.13 per common share, effective with the Q1 2025 dividend payable in April 2025.

In February 2025, Vermilion announced the closing of a private offering of US$400 million aggregate principal amount of eight-year senior unsecured notes (the "2033 Notes"). The 2033 Notes mature on February 15, 2033 and have a fixed coupon of 7.250% per annum. In connection with the closing of the 2033 Notes, the Bridge Facility was expired undrawn.

The Westbrick acquisition closed in February 2025 and was funded through cash on hand, Vermilion's new $450 million Term Loan, and Vermilion's undrawn $1.35 billion revolving credit facility. The acquisition added approximately 50,000 boe/d of stable production and approximately 1.1 million (770,000 net) acres of land with over 700 drilling locations, enhancing the depth and quality of Vermilion's Deep Basin inventory.

In May 2025, Vermilion announced an agreement for the sale of its Saskatchewan and Manitoba assets for gross proceeds of $415 million. In June 2025, Vermilion announced an agreement for the sale of its United States assets for gross proceeds of $120 million. Both sales closed in July 2025, with net cash proceeds directed towards debt repayment to accelerate deleveraging efforts and strengthen Vermilion's balance sheet, which included the full repayment of the $450 million Term Loan.

In July 2025, Vermilion received TSX approval for renewal of the NCIB, allowing the Company to purchase up to 15,259,187 common shares, representing approximately 10% of its public float as at June 30, 2025, over a twelve month period commencing on July 12, 2025. In total in 2025, Vermilion declared $80 million in dividends and repurchased 3.1 million shares pursuant to the NCIB for a total of $36 million.

In December 2025, Vermilion sold 56 million shares of Coelacanth Energy Inc. for gross proceeds of $43 million. The Coelacanth shares were sold in continuance of Vermilion's stated priority of reducing its debt to further enhance the resiliency of its business. Since the closing of the Westbrick acquisition in Q1 2025, net debt has been reduced by approximately $720 million through the end of Q4 2025, including the application of proceeds from the sale of the Coelacanth shares.

**Outlook**

------

In November 2025, Vermilion announced an E&D capital expenditure budget for 2026 of $600 to $630 million, with corresponding production guidance of 118,000 to 122,000 boe/d. In conjunction with the 2026 budget release, the Company also announced its plan to increase the quarterly dividend by 4% to $0.135 per common share in Q1 2026.

Vermilion will continue to target a return of capital payout of 40% of excess free cash flow ("EFCF"), however the Company will look to optimize EFCF allocation between debt reduction, production growth, both organically and through acquisitions, and return of capital to shareholders through share buybacks and dividends.

Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information

**Reserves and future net revenue**

------

The following is a summary of the crude oil and natural gas reserves and the value of future net revenue of Vermilion as evaluated by McDaniel & Associates in the McDaniel & Associates Report dated March 3, 2026 with an effective date of December 31, 2025. Pricing used in the forecast price evaluations is set forth in the notes to the tables.

Reserves and other oil and gas information contained in this section is effective December 31, 2025 unless otherwise stated.

All evaluations of future net revenue set forth in the tables below are stated after overriding and lessor royalties, Crown royalties, freehold royalties, mineral taxes, direct lifting costs, normal allocated overhead and future capital investments, including abandonment and reclamation obligations. **Future net revenues estimated by the McDaniel & Associates Report do not represent the fair market value of the reserves. Other assumptions relating to the costs, prices for future production and other matters are included in the McDaniel & Associates Report. There is no assurance that the future price and cost assumptions used in the McDaniel & Associates Report will prove accurate and variances could be material.**

Reserves are established using deterministic methodology. Total proved reserves target at least a 90 percent probability (P90) level. There is a 90 percent probability that the actual reserves recovered will be equal to or greater than the P90 reserves. Total proved plus probable reserves target at least a 50 percent probability (P50) level. There is a 50 percent probability that the actual reserves recovered will be equal to or greater than the P50 reserves.

The Report on Reserves Data by Independent Qualified Reserves Evaluator or Auditor in Form 51-101F2 and the Report of Management and Directors on Oil and Gas Disclosure in Form 51-101F3 are contained in Appendices "A" and "B", respectively.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The pricing assumptions used in the McDaniel & Associates Report with respect to net present value of future net revenue (forecast) as well as the inflation rates used for operating and capital costs are set forth in "Forecast Prices used in Estimates". McDaniel & Associates is an independent qualified reserves evaluator appointed pursuant to NI 51-101.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) "Gross Reserves" are Vermilion's working interest (operating or non-operating) share before deduction of royalty obligations and without including any royalty interests of Vermilion. "Net Reserves" are Vermilion's working interest (operating or non-operating) share after deduction of royalty obligations, plus Vermilion's royalty interests in reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) "Proved" reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) "Probable" reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) "Developed" reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from existing wells and installed facilities or, if facilities have not been installed, that would involve a low expenditure (e.g. when compared to the cost of drilling a well) to put the reserves on production.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) "Developed Producing" reserves are those reserves that are expected to be recovered from completion intervals open at the time of the estimate. These reserves may be currently producing or, if shut-in, they must have previously been on production, and the date of resumption of production must be known with reasonable certainty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) "Developed Non-Producing" reserves are those reserves that either have not been on production, or have previously been on production, but are shut in, and the date of resumption of production is unknown.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) "Undeveloped" reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (such as the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves classification (proved, probable) to which they are assigned.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) "Undeveloped" reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (such as the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves classification (proved, probable) to which they are assigned.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The pricing assumptions used in the McDaniel & Associates Report with respect to net present value of future net revenue (forecast) as well as the inflation rates used for operating and capital costs are set forth in "Forecast Prices used in Estimates". McDaniel & Associates is an independent qualified reserves evaluator appointed pursuant to NI 51-101.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) "Proved" reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) "Probable" reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) "Future Income Taxes" are calculated using future net revenue before income taxes as shown, after incorporating Vermilion's existing tax pools, corporate charge-outs, and related expenditures. This calculation applies the year-end statutory rate, taking into account future tax rates already legislated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) "Capital Development Costs" include the costs for the drilling, completion, and tie-in of wells, the construction of production and processing facilities, major facilities projects, well workovers and some well and facility maintenance capital. For the purposes of determining Future Net Revenue, the majority of the costs related to the replacement of certain downhole and facilities equipment as well as facility turnarounds are included in Operating Costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) "Abandonment and Reclamation Costs" include all entities with associated reserves included in the McDaniel & Associates Report. Further information on Abandonment and Reclamation costs can be found in the Annual MD&A on our website at www.vermilionenergy.com, www.sedarplus.ca , or www.sec.gov.

**Reconciliations of changes in reserves**

------

The following tables set forth a reconciliation of the changes by product type (light crude oil and medium crude oil, heavy crude oil, tight oil, conventional natural gas, coal bed methane, shale gas and NGLs) in Vermilion's gross reserves as at December 31, 2025 compared to such reserves as at December 31, 2024 based on the forecast price and costs.

Key highlights within the reconciliation include: Extensions & Improved Recovery in Canada reflecting the addition of further undeveloped booking years in both Mica and the Deep Basin, supported by strong drilling performance and confidence in our developable resource. Europe also contributed meaningfully to Extensions and Improved Recovery, with Germany booking the Dethlingen zone in the Wisselshorst (WSSH Z1a) well and the Netherlands adding volumes from the Oppenheizen wells (OPH-02 and OPH-03) which produced from both the Rotliegend and the Zechstein zones. Negative technical revisions largely stem from location removals to high-grade our development plan. In Canada, acquisition volumes are primarily associated with the Westbrick acquisition in the Deep Basin, with the disposition volumes mainly reflecting the sale of the Saskatchewan assets. Vermilion also divested its United States assets as part of its broader portfolio rationalization.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) "Proved" reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) "Probable" reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The pricing assumptions used in the McDaniel & Associates Report with respect to net present value of future net revenue (forecast) as well as the inflation rates used for operating and capital costs are set forth in "Forecast Prices used in Estimates". McDaniel & Associates is an independent qualified reserves evaluator appointed pursuant to NI 51-101.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) For reporting purposes, "Total Oil" is the sum of Light Crude Oil and Medium Crude Oil, Heavy Crude Oil and Tight Oil and "Total Gas" is the sum of Conventional Natural Gas, Coal Bed Methane and Shale Gas.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) "Extensions & Improved Recovery" are additions to booked volumes resulting from a capital expenditure in previously discovered reservoirs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) "Technical Revisions" are positive or negative revisions to an estimate resulting from new technical data or revised interpretations on previously assigned volumes, performance, development schedule and operating costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) "Acquisitions" are positive additions to volume estimates due to purchasing interests in oil and gas properties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) "Economic factors" are positive or negative revisions resulting from changes in market price outlook, inflation, or regulatory changes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) "Dispositions" are negative changes to volume estimates due to divesting of interests in oil and gas properties.

**Undeveloped reserves**

------

Undeveloped reserves are those reserves expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (such as the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of production. Proved undeveloped reserves have a 90% probability of being recovered. Vermilion's current plan is to develop these reserves in the following five years. The pace of development of these reserves is influenced by many factors, including but not limited to, the outcomes of yearly drilling and reservoir evaluations, changes in commodity pricing, changes in capital allocations, changing technical conditions, regulatory changes and impact of future acquisitions and dispositions. As new information becomes available these reserves are reviewed and development plans are revised accordingly.

With Vermilion's extensive portfolio of opportunities, which also include resource plays and longer term projects, it would be impracticable to fully develop the entire portfolio of booked opportunities within two years. The development of these reserves has been based on planned and prioritized capital activity levels. The majority of the proved reserves are planned to be on stream within a three-year time frame, which represents approximately 65% of the net undeveloped location count, as well as 62% of the net total future development capital. All development is estimated to be completed within five years.

Probable undeveloped reserves have a 50% probability of being recovered. Vermilion's current plan is to develop these reserves over the next eight years. In general, development of these reserves requires additional evaluation data to increase the probability of success to a level that favorably ranks the project against other projects in Vermilion's inventory. This increases the timeline for the development of these reserves. This timetable may be altered depending on outside market forces, changes in capital allocations and impact of future acquisitions and dispositions.

The majority of the Proved Plus Probable development is scheduled to be on stream within five years, representing 82% of the net Probable locations, and 78% of the net future development capital spend.

**Significant factors or uncertainties affecting reserves data**

------

In addition to the "Reserve estimates" risks included under the "Risk Factors" section of this AIF, abandonment and reclamation costs are incurred to restore shut-in and producing wells, facilities, and pipelines to the standards required by applicable regulatory authorities. These costs, including expected future expenditures, are evaluated annually and incorporated into the Company's budgeting process. A provision for abandonment and reclamation obligations is recognized at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditures required to settle the obligation as at the balance sheet date. These obligations are expected to be funded through cash flows generated from operating activities. The provision is reduced as costs are incurred, and facilities are decommissioned once all associated wells have been suspended or abandoned.

Estimated abandonment and reclamation costs are determined using a combination of industry peer data, third-party liability management information, regulatory data, and internal operational data. Revisions to estimated costs or the timing of expenditures are applied prospectively.

The provision reflects current legal and constructive obligations, available technology, expected remediation plans, and prevailing cost assumptions. Actual costs and timing may differ from estimates due to changes in laws and regulations, market conditions, site-specific factors, and technological developments.

For further information regarding abandonment and reclamation obligations, refer to *"The Carrying Amount of Asset Retirement Obligations"* in the Critical Accounting Estimates section of the Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis dated March 4, 2026, and Note 10 of the Audited Annual Financial Statements. These documents are available on Vermilion's website at www.vermilionenergy.com, on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

**Future development costs**

------

The table below sets out the future development costs required to bring reserves on production and deducted in the estimation of future net revenue attributable to total proved reserves and total proved plus probable reserves (using forecast prices and costs), noting that future development costs for Canada, Germany, and Ireland also include costs associated with well and facility maintenance. The future development cost estimates disclosed below are associated with reserves as evaluated by McDaniel & Associates. The future development cost estimates will differ from the costs ultimately incurred by Vermilion due to a number of factors, including costs incurred for properties that do not have associated reserves as evaluated by McDaniel & Associates and economic factors that may alter development pace and project selection.

Vermilion expects to source its capital expenditure requirements from internally generated cash flow and, as appropriate, from the Revolving Credit Facility or equity or debt financing. It is anticipated that costs of funding the future development costs will not impact development of its properties or Vermilion's reserves or future net revenue.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) "Developed" means the acreage assigned to productive wells based on applicable regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) "Gross" means the total acreage in which Vermilion has a working interest, directly or indirectly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) "Net" means the total acreage in which Vermilion has a working interest, directly or indirectly, multiplied by the percentage working interest of Vermilion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) When determining gross and net acreage for two or more leases covering the same lands but different rights, the acreage is reported for each lease. Where there are multiple discontinuous rights in a single lease, the acreage is reported only once.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) "Gross" refers to the total wells in which Vermilion has an interest, directly or indirectly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) "Net" refers to the total wells in which Vermilion has an interest, directly or indirectly, multiplied by the percentage working interest owned by Vermilion, directly or indirectly therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The Weissenmoor Sud Z1 well was drilled to depth at 5200mMD, logged, and tested. Drilling parameters and logs indicated multiple hydrocarbon bearing zones, and two zones flowed gas to surface with the best flowrate being 25,960m3/day at a 41.6bar FWHP when all zones were commingled These flowing parameters were not commercial and the well was suspended with no further potential identified, however, a sidetrack target does exist offsetting this wellbore.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) "Gross" refers to the total acres in which Vermilion has an interest, directly or indirectly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) "Net" refers to the total acres in which Vermilion has an interest, directly or indirectly, multiplied by the percentage working interest owned by Vermilion, directly or indirectly therein.

Vermilion has rights to explore, develop, and exploit approximately 103,840 (73,637 net) unproved acres in Canada and 453,799 (272,279 net) unproved acres in the Netherlands that may expire in one year. This acreage is continuously evaluated and attempts to retain the acreage may be made through capital activity such as seismic acquisition, geophysical studies, or drilling. No such rights are expected to expire within one year for Australia, Croatia, Germany, Hungary, and Slovakia. Vermilion has other work commitments with respect to lands held in Croatia and Slovakia that are estimated to be $31.9 million in the next year.

All properties with no attributed reserves do not have high expected development or operating costs or contractual sales obligations to produce and sell at substantially lower prices than could be realized. For further information on Vermilion's asset retirement obligations, refer to the "Significant factors or uncertainties affecting reserves data" section of this document.

**Marketing**

------

The nature of Vermilion's operations results in exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, interest rates, and foreign currency exchange rates. Vermilion monitors and, when appropriate, uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to these fluctuations. All transactions of this nature entered into by Vermilion are related to an underlying financial position or to future crude oil and natural gas production. Vermilion does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Vermilion has not obtained collateral or other security to support its financial derivatives as management reviews the creditworthiness of its counterparties prior to entering into derivative contracts.

During the normal course of business, Vermilion may also enter into fixed price arrangements to sell a portion of its production or purchase commodities for operational use.

Vermilion's outstanding risk management positions as at December 31, 2025 are summarized in Supplemental Table 2: Hedges, included in the Annual MD&A, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Description of Capital Structure

**Credit ratings**

------

Credit ratings affect the Company's ability to obtain short-term and long-term financing and the cost of such financing. A reduction in the credit rating of the Company or the Company's debt or a negative change in the Company's ratings outlook could adversely affect the Company's cost of financing and its access to sources of liquidity and capital. In addition, changes in credit ratings may affect the Company's ability to enter into ordinary course hedging arrangements or contracts with customers and suppliers.

Credit ratings are intended to provide investors with an independent measure of the credit quality of an issuer of securities. The credit ratings accorded to the Senior Unsecured Notes and the Company are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell such securities and are not a comment upon the market price of the Company's securities or their suitability for a particular investor. There is no assurance that any rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. A revision or withdrawal of a credit rating could have a material adverse effect on the pricing or liquidity of the Senior Unsecured Notes or the common shares in any secondary markets. Vermilion does not undertake any obligation to maintain the ratings or to advise holders of the Senior Unsecured Notes or the common shares of any change in ratings. Each agency's rating should be evaluated independently of any other agency's rating.

Vermilion provides an annual fee to S&P Global Ratings ("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"), and Fitch Ratings ("Fitch") for credit rating services. Vermilion has paid each of S&P, Moody's, and Fitch its respective fees in connection with the provision of the below ratings. Over the past two years, in addition to the aforementioned fees, Vermilion has made payments in respect of certain other services provided to the Company by S&P, Moody's, and Fitch.

As at March 4, 2026, Vermilion had the following credit ratings from S&P, Moody's, and Fitch:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Rating Agency** | **Outlook** |
| S&P <sup>(1)</sup><br> B+ <sup>(1)</sup> | Stable<br> BB- <sup>(4)</sup> |
| Moody's <sup>(2)</sup><br> B1 <sup>(2)</sup> | Positive<br> B3 <sup>(5)</sup> |
| Fitch <sup>(3)</sup><br> BB- <sup>(3)</sup> | Negative<br> BB- <sup>(6)</sup> |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> S&P rates long-term corporate credit ratings by rating categories ranging from a high of "AAA" to a low of "D". Ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. In addition, S&P may add a rating outlook of "positive", "negative" or "stable" which assesses the potential direction of a long-term credit rating over the intermediate term (typically six months to two years). An obligor rated "B+" is within the sixth highest of the ten categories, and is characterized by S&P as more vulnerable in the near term than obligors rated "BB", but has the capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties and exposure to adverse business, financial or economic conditions, which could lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitments.

<sup>(2)</sup> Moody's corporate family ratings are on a rating scale that ranges from Aaa to C, which represents the highest to lowest opinions of creditworthiness. Moody's appends numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa, with 3 indicating a ranking in the lower end of the generic rating category. A rating of B1 by Moody's is within the sixth highest of nine categories. An obliger rated B1 is considered non-investment grade speculative and is subject to high credit risk.

<sup>(3)</sup> Fitch's corporate credit rating categories range from "investment grade" for those with ratings of "AAA" to "BBB", and "speculative grade" for those with "BB" to "D" ratings. Modifiers may be used by Fitch within these rating categories, either (+) or (-), appended to a rating to indicate relative status within the major rating categories. Rating outlooks may be provided to direct where a rating may potentially move within the next year or two, and fall under four outlooks: "positive", "stable", "negative", or "evolving". A "BB-" rating for an obliger denotes an increased vulnerability to default risk, especially if experiencing adverse changes in economic or business conditions over time; conversely, there remains a financial or business flexibility that sustains the servicing of financial obligations.

<sup>(4)</sup> S&P rates long-term debt instruments by rating categories ranging from a high of "AAA" to a low of "D". The ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. An obligation rated "BB-" is characterized as less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues. However, an obligation rated "BB-" faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, which could lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. The "BB" category is the fifth highest of the ten available categories.

<sup>(5)</sup> Moody's long-term obligations ratings are on a rating scale that ranges from Aaa to C, which represents the highest to lowest opinions of creditworthiness. Moody's appends numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa, with 3 indicating a ranking in the lower end of the generic rating category. A rating of B3 by Moody's is within the sixth highest of nine categories. Obligations rated B3 are considered non-investment grade speculative and are subject to high credit risk.

<sup>(6)</sup> Fitch's long-term debt instrument ratings are categorized from "investment grade" for those with ratings of "AAA" to "BBB", and "speculative grade" for those with "BB" to "D" ratings. Modifiers may be used by Fitch within these rating categories, either (+) or (-), appended to a rating to indicate relative status within the major rating categories. A "BB-" rating for an obliger denotes an increased vulnerability to default risk, especially if experiencing adverse changes in economic or business conditions over time; conversely, there remains a financial or business flexibility that sustains the servicing of financial obligations.

**Common shares**

------

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares. Each common share entitles the holder to receive notice of and to attend all meetings of Shareholders and to one vote at any such meeting. The holders of common shares are, at the discretion of the Board of Directors and subject to applicable legal restrictions, entitled to receive any dividends declared by the Board of Directors on the common shares. The holders of common shares are entitled to share equally in any distribution of the assets of the Company upon the liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy or winding-up of the Company or other distribution of its assets among the Shareholders for the purpose of winding-up the Company's affairs.

Awards pursuant to which a holder may receive Common Shares have been issued under certain Vermilion compensation arrangements. See Note 17 of Vermilion's audited annual financial statements (the "Audited Annual Financial Statements") as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025 (a copy of which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov under Vermilion's profile) for further details regarding the amount and value of such awards.

**Dividend history**

------

The Company paid a monthly dividend from January 2003 through March 2020. The dividend was suspended in April 2020 in response to the deterioration in near-term commodity prices and worsening outlook for global oil demand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and OPEC+ oil price war. Vermilion has a long history of paying dividends and we remain strong proponents of returning capital to Shareholders and as a result of our focus on financial strength we reinstated the dividend in the first quarter of 2022 and subsequently increased the per common share amounts in the second quarter of 2022, the first quarter of 2023, the first quarter of 2024, the first quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.

Solvency tests imposed by the ABCA on corporations for the declaration and payment of dividends must be satisfied prior to the declaration of a dividend. In addition, decisions with respect to the declaration of dividends on the common shares are made by the Board of Directors on the basis of the Company's net earnings, financial requirements, and other conditions.

The following table sets forth the history of Vermilion's dividend declared per unit or common share:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Date** | **Frequency** | **Dividend per unit or common share** |
| January 2003 to December 2007 | Monthly | $0.170 |
| January 2008 to December 2012 | Monthly | $0.190 |
| January 2013 to December 2013 | Monthly | $0.200 |
| January 2014 to March 2018 | Monthly | $0.215 |
| April 2018 to February 2020 | Monthly | $0.230 |
| March 2020 | Monthly | $0.115 |
| March 2022 to June 2022 | Quarterly | $0.060 |
| September 2022 to December 2022 | Quarterly | $0.080 |
| March 2023 to December 2023  | Quarterly | $0.100 |
| March 2024 to December 2024 | Quarterly | $0.120 |
| March 2025 to December 2025 | Quarterly | $0.130 |
| March 2026 onwards | Quarterly | $0.135 |

---

The following table outlines dividends declared per common share for each of the three most recently completed financial years:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Date** | **Dividends per common share** |
| 2023 | $0.40 |
| 2024 | $0.48 |
| 2025 | $0.52 |

---

In conjunction with the release of our 2026 budget in November 2025, we increased the quarterly dividend by 4% to $0.135 per common share, effective with the Q1 2026 dividend payable March 31, 2026. Vermilion intends to generate strong compounded returns for investors through a combination of ratable dividend increases, continued share repurchases, and modest production growth. The dividend of $0.135 per common share for Q1 2026 was declared on March 4, 2026.

*The Revolving Credit Facility*

As at December 31, 2025, Vermilion had in place a bank revolving credit facility maturing May 25, 2029 which can be extended from time to time at the option of the lenders and upon notice from Vermilion.

The facility is secured by various fixed and floating charges against the subsidiaries of Vermilion.

On June 9, 2025, the maturity date of the revolving facility was extended to May 25, 2029 (previously May 26, 2028). The total facility amount of $1.35 billion and accordion feature to increase the aggregate amount available under the facility to $1.6 billion remain unchanged.

Risk Factors

The following is a summary of certain risk factors relating to the business of the Company. The following information is a summary only of certain risk factors and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and must be read in conjunction with, the detailed information appearing elsewhere in this AIF. Climate - related risk disclosure previously found in the MD&A has been consolidated into this summary, using the Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standard (CSDS) 2 guidance on horizon and risk category, including transition and physical risks. Transition risks are risks that relate to the transition to a lower - carbon economy. Physical risks relate to the physical impact of climate change, which can be event driven (acute) or longer - term shifts (chronic) in climate patterns. Further information on climate - related risks is available in the Sustainability Report at www.vermilionenergy.com/our - sustainability/sustainability - report/. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to Vermilion that it currently views as immaterial may also materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and/or results of operations. Shareholders and potential investors should carefully consider the information contained herein and, in particular, the following risk factors.

**Market risks**

------

*Volatility of oil and gas prices*

The Company's reserves, financial performance, financial position, and cash flows are dependent on the prices received for oil and natural gas production. Oil and natural gas prices have fluctuated materially during recent years and are determined by supply and demand factors. Supply factors can include availability (or lack thereof) of transportation capacity and production curtailments by independent producers or by OPEC members. Demand factors can be impacted by general economic conditions, supply chain requirements, environmental and other factors. Environmental and other factors include changes in weather, weather patterns, fuel conservation measures, alternative fuel requirements, increasing consumer demand for alternatives to oil and gas, and technology advances in fuel economy and energy generation devices. Shifts in supply and demand for certain commodities, products, and services may occur as climate-related risks are increasingly taken into account.

*Constraints at processing facilities and/or on transportation*

The Company delivers its products via gathering and processing facilities, pipeline systems, trucks, rail, and tanker. The amount of crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs that the Company can produce and sell is subject to the availability, proximity, and capacity of these systems and related infrastructure. Unexpected shutdowns or curtailment of capacity of gathering and processing facilities, and pipeline systems, or an inability to secure trucks, rail, or tankers could affect the Company's production, operations, and financial results. The Company's production may flow through third party facilities which the Company does not control and these facilities may discontinue or decrease operations as result of normal course service requirements, unexpected events or otherwise. A discontinuation or decrease of operation of these third party facilities could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to process its production and deliver to market. Midstream and pipeline companies may take actions to maximize their return on investment, which may in turn adversely affect producers and shippers.

*Volatility of foreign exchange rates*

The Company's reserves, financial performance, financial position, and cash flows are affected by prevailing foreign exchange rates. An increase in the exchange rate for the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar and Euro would reduce the Canadian equivalent cash receipts for Vermilion's production. Conversely, a decrease in the exchange rate for the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar and Euro would increase the Canadian equivalent cash outflows for Vermilion's operating and capital expenditures.

*Volatility of market price of common shares*

The market price of the common shares may be volatile and this volatility may affect the ability of Shareholders to sell common shares at an advantageous price. Market price fluctuations in the common shares may be due to: the Company's operating results or financial performance failing to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors in any quarter; downward revision in securities analysts' estimates; governmental regulatory action; adverse change in general market conditions or economic trends; acquisitions, dispositions or other material public announcements by the Company or its competitors. In addition, the market price for securities in stock markets including Common Shares may experience significant price and trading fluctuations. These fluctuations may result in volatility in the market prices of securities that may be unrelated or disproportionate to changes in the Company's operating and financial performance.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 59 ■ 2025 Annual Information Form

------

*Hedging arrangements*

Vermilion may enter into agreements to fix commodity prices, interest rates, and foreign exchange rates to offset the risks affecting the business. To the extent that Vermilion engages in price risk management activities to protect the Company from unfavourable fluctuations in prices and rates, the Company may also be prevented from realizing the full benefits of favourable fluctuations in prices and rates.

To the extent that risk management activities and hedging strategies are employed to address these risks, the Company would also be exposed to risks associated with such activities and strategies, including: counterparty risk, settlement risk, basis risk, liquidity risk and market risk. These risks could impact or negate any benefits of risk management activities and hedging strategies.

In addition, commodity hedging arrangements could expose the Company to the risk of financial loss if: production falls short of the hedged volumes; there is a widening of price-basis differentials between delivery points for production and the delivery point assumed in the hedge arrangements; or a sudden unexpected event materially impacts oil and natural gas prices.

*Inflationary pressures*

The Company's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows are impacted by global inflation. An increase in inflation could impact the costs of to operate our business, including future capital expenditures, recurring costs to operate, and commodity prices.

**Operational risks**

------

*Increase in operating costs or a decline in production level*

The Company's financial performance, financial position, and cash flows are affected by the Company's operating costs and production levels. Operating costs may increase and production levels may decline at rates greater than anticipated due to unforeseen circumstances, many of which are beyond Vermilion's control.

Production levels may decline due to an inability for Vermilion to market oil and natural gas production. This could result from the availability, proximity and capacity of gathering systems, pipelines and processing facilities that Vermilion depends on in the jurisdictions in which it operates.

Operating costs could increase as a result of blowouts, environmental damage, unforeseen circumstances related to climate-change, and other unexpected and/or dangerous conditions which could result from a number of operating and natural hazards associated with Vermilion's operations. In addition to higher costs, Vermilion may have a potential liability to regulators and third parties as a result. Vermilion maintains liability insurance, where available, in amounts consistent with industry standards. Business interruption insurance may also be purchased for selected operations, to the extent that such insurance is commercially viable. Vermilion may become liable for damages arising from such events against which it cannot insure or against which it may elect not to insure because of high premium costs or other reasons.

*Operator performance and payment delays*

Continuing production from a property are dependent upon the ability of the operator of the property, and the operator may fail to perform these functions properly. Payments from production generally flow through the operator and there is a risk of delay and additional expense in receiving such revenues if the operator becomes insolvent. Although satisfactory title reviews are generally conducted in accordance with industry standards, such reviews do not guarantee or certify that a defect in the chain of title may not arise to defeat the claim of Vermilion or its subsidiaries to certain properties.

In addition to the usual delays in payment by purchasers of oil and natural gas to the operators of the properties, and by the operator to Vermilion, payments between any of such parties may also be delayed by restrictions imposed by lenders, delays in the sale or delivery of products, delays in the connection of wells to a gathering system, blowouts or other accidents, recovery by the operator of expenses incurred in the operation of the properties or the establishment by the operator of reserves for such expenses.

*Weather conditions*

Vermilion's operations may be impacted by climate-related changing weather conditions, which may include:

● **Medium-term (3-6 years) acute physical climate risks: increased severity of extreme weather events such as cyclones and floods**. In Australia a severe cyclonic event could cause damage to the Company's Wandoo platform. In North America, wildfires and floods may restrict access to or interfere with the Company's operations, increasing its costs and otherwise negatively impacting its operations.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 60 ■ 2025 Annual Information Form

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

● **Long-term (6-50 years) chronic physical climate risks: rising sea levels.** In the Netherlands, rising water levels could impact facilities below sea level, due to flooding, transportation difficulties, supply chain disruption and salinization of groundwater.

● **Long-term (6-50 years) chronic physical climate risks: changes in temperature extremes, precipitation patterns and weather pattern variability.** Based on RCP4.5, a scenario which limits global warming to 3C, our locations may be impacted by overall warming temperatures, and greater precipitation or drier conditions, which may increase capital cost for drilling, completions and workover operations due to increased timelines, equipment breakdown, availability of surface and/or groundwater, and restricted access (fewer frost days in North America).

In general, these events can impact Vermilion's operations, causing shutdowns and increased costs, and Vermilion's infrastructure, causing losses beyond insurance availability and coverage.

*Cost and performance of new technology*

The oil and natural gas industry is characterized by rapid and significant technological advancements and introductions of new products and services utilizing new technologies. Other oil and natural gas companies may have greater financial, technical and personnel resources that provide them with technological advantages and may in the future allow them to implement new technologies before Vermilion does. There can be no assurance that Vermilion will be able to respond to such competitive pressures and implement such technologies on a timely basis or at an acceptable cost. One or more of the technologies currently utilized by the Company or implemented in the future may become obsolete.

● **Medium-term Climate Transition Risks (3–6 Years): technology.** Our emission reduction projects and climate strategy rely on technologies that are rapidly evolving, but in many cases unproven at larger scales and uneconomic for dispersed assets that are not, for example, near an electrical grid or pipeline gathering system. Assumptions by those outside the industry that broad generalizations on methane reduction are economical for all assets may be proven false. Some technology projects will fail; others will prove uneconomic.

● **Long-term Climate Transition Risks (6-50 years): technology, including substitution of existing products with lower emission options, and market, including changes in customer sentiment.** Although progression of the energy transition appears increasingly uncertain, longer than anticipated, and focused on energy addition rather than replacement of traditional fuels, it is possible that demand for oil and, to a lesser degree, natural gas will eventually fall as various alternatives for renewable energy options become technologically and economically available, including consumer adoption of electric vehicles. This could impact the need for our products in the longer term, although it will be critical to maintain adequate supplies of both oil and natural gas to provide both accessibility and affordability. We have identified alternative energies and technologies that are synergistic fits for our business, such as geothermal from produced water, biogas production, and the conversion of traditional oil and gas assets to geothermal or hydrogen production, or carbon storage. These technologies rely on robust partnerships with other entities, government regulatory and permitting processes, and the advancement of the technologies themselves, all of which are beyond the Company's control, may or may not perform as predicted, and may prove cost-prohibitive.

**Regulatory and political risks**

------

*Tax, royalty, and other government legislation*

Income tax laws, royalty and other government legislation relating to the oil and gas industry in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates may change in a manner that adversely affects Vermilion.

Vermilion is exposed to increased taxation and royalties due to windfall taxes on profits. Windfall taxes were substantively enacted within the European Union for oil and gas companies for 2022 and/or 2023 at a minimum rate of 33% calculated on taxable profits above a 20% increase in the average yearly taxable profits as compared to 2018 to 2021. The windfall tax did not apply to 2024 or later years. There is risk that windfall taxes or similar mechanisms will be re-enacted or similar legislation could be enacted in other jurisdictions that Vermilion operates in periods of extraordinary commodity prices.

*Government regulations*

Vermilion's operations are governed by many levels of governments in which jurisdiction the Company operates. Vermilion is subject to laws and regulations regarding environment, health and safety issues, lease interests, taxes and royalties, among others. Failure to comply with the applicable laws can result in significant increases in costs, penalties and even losses of operating licenses. The regulatory process involved in each of the countries in which Vermilion operates is not uniform and regulatory regimes vary as to complexity, timeliness of access to, and response from, regulatory bodies and other matters specific to each jurisdiction. If regulatory approvals or permits are delayed, not obtained, or revoked, there can also be delays or abandonment of projects, decreases in production and increases in costs, and Vermilion may not be able to fully execute its strategy. Governments may also amend or create new legislation and regulatory bodies may also amend regulations or impose additional requirements which could result in reduced production and increased capital, operating and compliance costs.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 61 ■ 2025 Annual Information Form

------

*Policy and legal risks*

● **Short-term Climate Transition Risks (0–3 Years): Reputation; Policy and Legal.** Government and community relationships are strongly linked to both social and regulatory license to operate. Communities where we operate bear potential impacts, while opposition to fossil fuels is evident in some regions via public interest organizations and local sentiment. This climate-related opposition may increase legal challenges to operations by property owners and municipalities, impacting permitting timelines, Vermilion may also be exposed to increased litigation risk relating to overall climate change, similar to other oil and gas companies where claims being brought before the courts by public interest organizations. Some of these include the failure of organizations to mitigate the impacts of climate change, failure to adapt to climate change, the insufficiency of disclosure around material financial risks and the potential for greenwashing. As the value of loss and damage arising from climate change increases, litigation risk will also grow.

● **Medium-term (3-6 years) Climate Transition Risks: Policy and Legal:** Policy actions that attempt to constrain actions that contribute to the adverse effects of climate change or policy actions that seek to promote adaptation to climate change continue to evolve. Policy changes could include implementing carbon-pricing mechanisms to reduce GHG emissions, shifting energy-efficient solutions, promoting more sustainable land-use practices, and requirements for carbon storage (e.g. Europe's Net Zero Industry Act). The risks and financial impact of policy changes depend on the nature and timing of the policy change.

*Political events and terrorist attacks*

Political events throughout the world that cause disruptions in the supply of oil affect the marketability and price of oil and natural gas acquired or discovered by Vermilion. Political developments arising in the countries in which Vermilion operates have a significant impact on the price of oil and natural gas.

Vermilion's oil and natural gas properties, wells and facilities could be subject to a terrorist attack. If any of Vermilion's properties, wells or facilities or any infrastructure on which the Company relies are the subject of a terrorist attack, such attack may have a material adverse effect on Vermilion's financial performance, financial position, and cash flows.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 62 ■ 2025 Annual Information Form

------

**Financing risks**

------

*Discretionary nature of dividends and share buybacks*

The declaration and payment (including the amount thereof) of future cash dividends and the amount of share buybacks under the NCIB, if any, is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and may vary depending on a variety of factors and conditions, including the satisfaction of the liquidity and solvency tests under the ABCA for the declaration and payment of dividends and the amount of the Company's cash flows. The Company's cash flows may be impacted by risks affecting the Company's business including: fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign exchange and interest rates; production and sales volume levels; production costs; capital expenditure requirements; royalty and tax burdens; external financing availability, and debt service requirements.

Depending on these and other factors considered relevant to the declaration and payment of dividends and the authorization of share buybacks by the Board of Directors and management of the Company, the Company may change its dividend policy and (or) approach to the share buybacks from time to time. Any reduction of dividends and/or share buybacks may adversely affect the market price or value of Common Shares.

*Additional financing*

The Revolving Credit Facility and any replacement credit facility may not provide sufficient liquidity. The amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility may not be sufficient for future operations, or Vermilion may not be able to obtain additional financing on attractive economic terms, if at all.

To the extent that external sources of capital, including the issuance of additional Common Shares, become limited or unavailable, Vermilion's ability to make the necessary capital investments to maintain or expand its oil and natural gas reserves may be impaired. To the extent the Company is required to use cash flow to finance capital expenditures or property acquisitions, the level of cash available that may be declared payable as dividends will be reduced.

*Debt service*

Vermilion may finance a significant portion of its operations through debt. Amounts paid in respect of interest and principal on debt incurred by Vermilion may impair Vermilion's ability to satisfy its other obligations. Variations in interest rates and scheduled principal repayments could result in significant changes in the amount required to be applied to debt service before payment by Vermilion of its debt obligations.

Lenders may be provided with security over substantially all of the assets of Vermilion and its subsidiaries. If Vermilion becomes unable to pay its debt service charges or otherwise commits an event of default such as bankruptcy, a lender may be able to foreclose on or sell the assets of Vermilion and/or its Subsidiaries.

*Variations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates*

An increase in interest rates could result in a significant increase in the amount the Company pays to service debt. A decrease in the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar would result in higher interest and ultimate principal payment on the Senior Unsecured Notes.

**Environmental risks**

------

*Environmental legislation*

The oil and natural gas industry is subject to environmental regulation pursuant to local, provincial, state and federal legislation. A breach of such legislation may result in the imposition of fines, the issuance of clean up orders in respect of Vermilion or its assets, or the loss or suspension of regulatory approvals. Such legislation may be changed to impose higher standards and potentially more costly obligations on Vermilion. In addition, such legislation may inhibit Vermilion's ability to operate the Company's assets and may make it more difficult for Vermilion to compete in the acquisition of new property rights. Presently, the Company does not believe the financial impact of these regulations on capital expenditures and earnings will be material. However, the Company actively monitors and assesses its exposure to this legislation.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 63 ■ 2025 Annual Information Form

------

Vermilion expects to incur abandonment and reclamation costs in the ordinary course of business as existing oil and gas properties are abandoned and reclaimed. These costs may materially differ from the Company's estimates due to changes in environmental regulations.

● **Short-term (0-3 years) Climate Transition Risks: Policy and Legal:** Environmental legislation may include carbon taxes, enhanced emissions reporting obligations, mandates on the equipment specifications and emissions regulations. Vermilion's exploration and production facilities and other operations and activities emit some amount of greenhouse gases, which may be subject to emission regulating legislation. This may result in a current or future requirement to reduce emissions or emissions intensity from Vermilion's operations and facilities.

● **Short-term (0-3 years) Climate Transition Risks: Reputation:** Practices and disclosures relating to environmental matters, including climate change, are attracting increasing scrutiny by stakeholders. Vermilion's response to addressing environmental matters can impact the Company's reputation and affect the Company's ability to hire and retain employees; to compete for reserve acquisitions, exploration leases, licenses and concessions; and to receive regulatory approvals required to execute operating programs.

*Hydraulic fracturing regulations*

Hydraulic fracturing involves the injection of water, sand and small amounts of additives under pressure into rock formations to stimulate oil and natural gas production. Hydraulic fracturing is used to produce commercial quantities of oil and natural gas from reservoirs that were previously unproductive. Hydraulic fracturing has featured prominently in recent political, media and activist commentary on the subject of water usage and environmental damage. Any new laws, regulations or permitting requirements regarding hydraulic fracturing could lead to operational delays, increased operating costs, third party or governmental claims, and could increase Vermilion's costs of compliance and doing business as well as delay the development of oil and natural gas resources from shale formations, which are not commercial without the use of hydraulic fracturing. Restrictions on hydraulic fracturing could also reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that the Company is ultimately able to produce from its reserves, as well as increase costs.

With activist groups expressing concern about the impact of hydraulic fracturing on the environment and water supplies, Vermilion's corporate reputation may be negatively affected by the negative public perception and public protests against hydraulic fracturing. In addition, concerns regarding hydraulic fracturing may result in changes in regulations that delay the development of oil and natural gas resources and adversely affect Vermilion's costs of compliance and reputation. Changes in government may result in new or enhanced regulatory burdens in respect of hydraulic fracturing which could affect Vermilion's business.

**Acquisition and expansion risks**

------

*Competition*

Vermilion actively competes for reserve acquisitions, exploration leases, licenses, concessions and skilled industry personnel with a substantial number of other oil and gas companies, some of which have significantly greater financial resources than Vermilion. Vermilion's competitors include major integrated oil and natural gas companies and numerous other independent oil and natural gas companies and individual producers and operators.

Vermilion's ability to successfully bid on and acquire additional property rights, to discover reserves, to participate in drilling opportunities and to identify and enter into commercial arrangements with customers will be dependent upon developing and maintaining close working relationships with its future industry partners and joint operators and its ability to select and evaluate suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 64 ■ 2025 Annual Information Form

------

*International operations and future geographical/industry expansion*

The operations and expertise of Vermilion's management are currently focused primarily on oil and natural gas production, exploration and development in three geographical regions, North America, Europe and Australia. In the future Vermilion may acquire or move into new industry related activities, enter into new geographical areas, or acquire different energy related assets. These actions may result in unexpected risks or alternatively, significantly increase the Company's exposure to one or more existing risk factors.

*Acquisition assumptions*

When making acquisitions, Vermilion estimates the future performance of the assets to be acquired. These estimates are subject to inherent risks associated with predicting the future performance of those assets. These estimates may not be realized over time. As such, assets acquired may not possess the value Vermilion attributed to them.

*Failure to realize anticipated benefits of prior acquisitions*

Vermilion may complete one or more acquisitions for various strategic reasons including to strengthen its position in the oil and natural gas industry and to create the opportunity to realize certain benefits. In order to achieve the benefits of any future acquisitions, Vermilion will be dependent upon its ability to successfully consolidate functions and integrate operations, procedures and personnel in a timely and efficient manner and to realize the anticipated growth opportunities and synergies from combining the acquired assets and operations with those of the Company. The integration of acquired assets and operations requires the dedication of management effort, time and resources, which may divert management's focus and resources from other strategic opportunities and from operational matters during the process. The integration process may result in the disruption of ongoing business and customer relationships that may adversely affect Vermilion's ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of such prior acquisitions.

**Reserve estimates**

------

Reserves and estimated future net revenue to be derived from reserves are estimates and have been independently evaluated by McDaniel & Associates. The estimation of reserves is a complex process and requires significant judgment. Actual production and ultimate reserves will vary from those estimates and these variations may be material.

Assumptions incorporated into the estimation of reserves are based on information available when the estimate was prepared. These assumptions are subject to change and many are beyond the Company's control. These assumptions include: initial production rates; production decline rates; ultimate recovery of reserves; timing and amount of capital expenditures; marketability of production; future prices of crude oil and natural gas; operating costs; well abandonment costs; royalties, taxes, and other government levies that may be imposed over the producing life of the reserves.

In addition, estimates of reserves that may be developed and produced in the future are often based on methods other than actual production history, including: volumetric calculations, probabilistic methods, and upon analogy to similar types of reserves. Estimates based on these methods are generally less reliable than those based on actual production history. Subsequent evaluation of the same reserves based upon production history will result in variations, which may be material, in the estimated reserves. As such, reserve estimates may require revision based on actual production experience.

The present value of estimated future net revenue referred to in this annual information form should not be construed as the fair market value of estimated crude oil and natural gas reserves attributable to the Company's properties. The estimated discounted future revenue from reserves are based upon price and cost estimates which may vary from actual prices and costs and such variance could be material. Actual future net revenue will also be affected by factors such as the amount and timing of actual production, supply and demand for crude oil and natural gas, curtailments or increases in consumption by purchasers and changes in governmental regulations and taxation.

**Other risks**

------

*Cyber security*

Vermilion manages cyber security risk by ensuring appropriate technologies, processes and practices are effectively designed and implemented to help prevent, detect and respond to threats as they emerge and evolve. The primary risks to Vermilion include, loss of data, destruction or corruption of data, compromising of confidential customer or employee information, leaked information, disruption of business, theft or extortion of funds, regulatory infractions, loss of competitive advantage and damage to the Company's reputation. Vermilion relies upon a variety of advanced controls as protection from such attacks including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) Enterprise class firewall infrastructure, secure network architecture and anti-malware defense systems to protect against network intrusion, malware infection and data loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) Regularly conducted comprehensive third party reviews and vulnerability assessments to ensure that information technology systems are up-to-date and properly configured, to reduce security risks arising from outdated or misconfigured systems and software.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) Disaster recovery planning, ongoing monitoring of network traffic patterns to identify potential malicious activities or attacks.

Incident response processes are in place to isolate and control potential attacks. Data backup and recovery processes are in place to minimize risk of data loss and resulting disruption of business. Through ongoing vigilance and regular employee awareness, Vermilion has not experienced a cyber security event of a material nature in the last three years. As it is difficult to quantify the significance of such events, cyber attacks such as, security breaches of company, customer, employee, and vendor information, as well as hardware or software corruption, failure or error, telecommunications system failure, service provider error, intentional or unintentional personnel actions, malicious software, attempts to gain unauthorized access to data and other electronic security breaches that could lead to disruptions in systems, unauthorized release of confidential or otherwise protected information and the corruption of data, may in certain circumstances be material and could have an adverse effect on Vermilion's business, financial condition and results of operations. As result of the unpredictability of the timing, nature and scope of disruptions from such attacks, Vermilion could potentially be subject to production downtimes, operational delays, the compromising of confidential or otherwise protected information, destruction or corruption of data, security breaches, other manipulation or improper use of its systems and networks or financial losses, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Vermilion's competitive position, financial condition or results of operations.

*Accounting adjustments*

The presentation of financial information in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards requires that management apply certain accounting policies and make certain estimates and assumptions which affect reported amounts in Vermilion's consolidated financial statements. The accounting policies may result in non-cash charges to net income and write-downs of net assets in the consolidated financial statements and such adjustments may be viewed unfavourably by the market and may result in an inability to borrow funds or a decline in price of Common Shares.

*Ineffective internal controls*

Effective internal controls are necessary for Vermilion to provide reliable financial reports and to help prevent fraud. Although the Company has undertaken and will undertake a number of procedures in order to help ensure the reliability of its financial reports, including those that may be imposed on Vermilion under Canadian securities laws and applicable US federal and state securities laws, Vermilion cannot be certain that such measures will ensure that the Company will maintain adequate control over financial processes and reporting. Failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm Vermilion's results of operations or cause the Company to fail to meet its reporting obligations. Additionally, implementing and monitoring effective internal controls can be costly. If Vermilion or its independent auditors discover a material weakness, the disclosure of that fact, even if quickly remedied, could reduce the market's confidence in Vermilion's consolidated financial statements and may result in a decline in the price of Common Shares.

*Reliance on key personnel, management, and labour*

Vermilion's success depends in large measure on certain key personnel. The loss of the services of such key personnel may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Vermilion does not have any key person insurance in effect. The contributions of Vermilion's existing management team to immediate and near term operations are likely to be of central importance. In addition, the labour force in certain areas in which the Company operates is limited and the competition for qualified personnel in the oil and natural gas industry is intense. Vermilion expects that similar projects or expansions will proceed in the same area during the same time frame as the Company's projects. Vermilion's projects require experienced employees, and such competition may result in increases in compensation paid to such personnel or in a lack of qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to attract and retain all personnel necessary for the development and operation of the business.

------

*Potential conflicts of interest*

Circumstances may arise where members of the Board of Directors or officers of Vermilion are directors or officers of companies which compete with Vermilion. No assurances can be given that opportunities identified by such persons will be provided to Vermilion.

*Geopolitical tensions and trade policy*

As a global gas producer, Vermilion's profitability is impacted by economic factors, including geopolitical tensions and trade policy decisions in the countries in which it operates, as well as countries that impact global gas supply and demand.

Ongoing global geopolitical tensions, including the war in Ukraine and conflicts in the Middle East, may have significant economic implications. Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 has disrupted regional oil and gas supplies, leading to widespread sanctions against Russia, which in turn have caused macroeconomic instability, meanwhile instability in the Middle East may continue to further threaten the global economies.

The global geopolitical landscape is also being significantly shaped by the current policies of the United States, particularly in relation to trade and tariffs. The potential imposition of tariffs, especially on Canadian goods, including crude oil, may create economic challenges for the oil and gas sector. These trade barriers if fully enacted may disrupt supply chains, raise costs, and impact the competitiveness of Canadian exports.

The other risks disclosed in this Risk Factors section may be exacerbated as a result of these geopolitical tensions and trade policy decisions, which may impact market risks including volatility of current and expected oil and gas prices, foreign exchange rates, market prices of common shares; regulatory and political risks including tax, royalty, and other government legislation; financing risks including additional financing, debt service, variations in interest rates; acquisition and expansion risks including international operations and future geographical/industry expansion, acquisition assumptions, failure to realize anticipated benefits of prior acquisitions.

**Exhibit 99.2**

Disclaimer

Certain statements included or incorporated by reference in this document may constitute "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, respectively (collectively referred to herein as "forward-looking statements or information"). Such forward-looking statements or information typically contain statements with words such as "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "plan", "intend", "estimate", "propose", "continue", "on track", "target", "focus", "grow", "will", "may", "could", or similar expressions or words suggesting future outcomes or statements regarding future events, performance, objectives, strategies or outlook. Forward-looking statements or information in this document may include, but are not limited to statements and information with respect to: capital expenditures and Vermilion's ability to fund such expenditures; future fund flows from operations and free cash flows; shareholder returns; Vermilion's anticipated future debt capacity and levels; Vermilion's budget; statements regarding the return of capital, the flexibility of Vermilion's capital program and operations; business strategies, objectives and priorities; operational and financial performance; estimated volumes of reserves and the discounted present value of future net cash flows from such reserves; petroleum and natural gas sales; future production levels and the timing thereof, including Vermilion's 2026 guidance, and rates of average annual production growth; the effect of changes in crude oil and natural gas prices, changes in exchange and interest rates and inflation rates; significant declines in production or sales volumes due to unforeseen circumstances; the effect of possible changes in critical accounting estimates; statements regarding the growth, number and production of Vermilion's future wells expected to be drilled; exploration and development plans and the timing thereof; Vermilion's aim and ability to reduce its debt; statements regarding Vermilion's hedging program, its plans to add to its hedging positions, and the anticipated impact of Vermilion's hedging program on project economics and free cash flows; the potential financial impact of climate-related risks; acquisition and disposition plans and the timing thereof; operating and other expenses, including the payment and amount of future dividends; royalty and income tax rates and Vermilion's expectations regarding future taxes and taxability; ongoing contractual commitments; asset retirement obligations; emissions targets, including reductions; sustainability and environmental, social and governance (ESG) and sustainability plans; and the timing of regulatory proceedings and the receipt of regulatory and third - party approvals.

Such forward-looking statements or information are based on a number of assumptions of which all or any may prove to be incorrect. In addition to any other assumptions identified in this document, assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: the ability of Vermilion to obtain equipment, services and supplies in a timely manner to carry out its activities in Canada and internationally; the ability of Vermilion to market crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas successfully to current and new customers; the timing and costs of pipeline and storage facility construction and expansion and the ability to secure adequate product transportation; the timely receipt of required regulatory, government and third - party approvals; the ability of Vermilion to obtain financing on acceptable terms; foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates and inflation rates; the accuracy of the McDaniel Reserves Report (defined below); the ability of the Company to identify, execute on and realize the anticipated benefits of attractive mergers and acquisitions opportunities; the ability of the Company to conduct operations in a safe manner; political stability of the areas in which the Company operates; the effects of changes to international trade policies; the accuracy of the Company's 2026 budget; the ability of the Company to retain key employees; production and decline rates; the absence of significant adverse changes to the legislative and regulatory frameworks, including regarding royalties, taxes and environmental matters; the political, economic and social states of the capital markets; global economic conditions; the ability of the Company to execute plans, including exploration and development plans; the success of present and future wells; future crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas prices; and management's expectations relating to the timing and results of exploration and development activities.

Although Vermilion believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements or information are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements or information because Vermilion can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Financial outlooks are provided for the purpose of understanding Vermilion's financial position and business objectives, and the information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements or information are based on current expectations, estimates, and projections that involve a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by Vermilion and described in the forward-looking statements or information. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: commodity prices; exchange rates; production and sales volumes; interest rates; geopolitical tensions; global tariffs; volatility of oil and gas prices; constraints at processing facilities and/or on transportation; volatility of foreign exchange rates; volatility of market price of Common Shares (defined below); hedging arrangements; inflationary pressures; increase in operating costs or a decline in production level; operator performance and payment delays; weather conditions; cost of new technology; tax, royalty, and other government legislation; government regulations; policy and legal risks; political events and terrorist attacks; discretionary nature of dividends and share buybacks; additional financing; debt service; variations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; environmental legislation; hydraulic fracturing regulations; climate change; competition; international operations and future geographical/industry expansion; acquisition assumptions; failure to realize anticipated benefits of prior acquisitions; reserves estimates; cyber security; accounting adjustments; ineffective internal controls; the potential for new and increased U.S. tariffs and protectionist trade measures on Canadian oil and gas imports; and other risks and uncertainties described elsewhere in this document or in Vermilion's other filings with Canadian securities regulatory authorities.

Many factors could cause Vermilion's or any particular business unit's actual results, performance, or achievements to vary from those described in this document, including, without limitation, those listed above and the assumptions upon which they are based proving incorrect. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in this document as intended, planned, anticipated, believed, sought, proposed, estimated, forecasted, expected, projected, or targeted and such forward-looking statements included in this document should not be unduly relied upon. The impact of any one assumption, risk, uncertainty, or other factor on a particular forward-looking statement cannot be determined with certainty because they are interdependent and Vermilion's future decisions and actions will depend on management's assessment of all information at the relevant time. Such statements speak only as of the date of this document. The forward-looking statements or information contained in this document are made as of the date hereof and the Company 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 required by applicable securities laws. The forward-looking statements contained in this document are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

This document contains references to sustainability/ESG data and performance that reflect metrics and concepts that are commonly used in such frameworks as the Global Reporting Initiative, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, International Sustainability Standards Board and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board. Vermilion has used best efforts to align with the most commonly accepted methodologies for ESG reporting, including with respect to climate data and information on potential future risks and opportunities, in order to provide a fuller context for our current and future operations. However, these methodologies are not yet standardized, are frequently based on calculation factors that change over time, and continue to evolve rapidly. Readers are particularly cautioned to evaluate the underlying definitions and measures used by other companies, as these may not be comparable to Vermilion's. While Vermilion will continue to monitor and adapt its reporting accordingly, the Company is not under any duty to update or revise the related sustainability/ESG data or statements except as required by applicable securities laws.

All oil and natural gas reserve information contained in this document is derived from the McDaniel Reserves Report (as defined below) and has been prepared and presented in accordance with the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook and National Instrument 51-101, *Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities* ("NI 51-101"). In this document: (A) the net present value of future net revenues attributable to reserves do not represent the fair market value of reserves; (B) the recovery and reserve estimates of crude oil, NGL and natural gas reserves provided in this document are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. Actual crude oil, natural gas and NGL reserves may be greater than or less than the estimates provided in this document; and (C) the estimates of reserves and future net revenue for individual properties may not reflect the same confidence level as estimates of reserves and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation.

Under NI 51-101, disclosure of production volumes should include segmentation by product type as defined in the instrument. In this document, references to "crude oil" and "light and medium crude oil" mean "light crude oil and medium crude oil" , "tight oil" or "heavy oil" and references to "natural gas" mean "conventional natural gas", "shale gas" or "coal bed methane".

Natural gas volumes have been converted on the basis of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent. Barrels of oil equivalent (boe) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet to one barrel of oil is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.

This document discloses certain oil and gas metrics, including reserve life index, finding, development and acquisition ("FD&A") costs, future development capital ("FDC") costs, which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons. Such metrics have been included in this document to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company's performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of the Company's future performance and future performance may not compare to the Company's performance in previous periods and therefore such metrics should not be unduly relied upon.

Estimates of Drilling Locations: Unbooked drilling locations are the internal estimates of Vermilion based on Vermilion's prospective acreage and an assumption as to the number of wells that can be drilled per section based on industry practice and internal review. Unbooked locations do not have attributed reserves or resources (including contingent and prospective). Unbooked locations have been identified by Vermilion's management as an estimation of Vermilion's multi-year drilling activities based on evaluation of applicable geologic, seismic, engineering, production and reserves information. There is no certainty that Vermilion will drill all unbooked drilling locations and if drilled there is no certainty that such locations will result in additional oil and natural gas reserves, resources or production. The drilling locations on which Vermilion will actually drill wells, including the number and timing thereof is ultimately dependent upon the availability of funding, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, additional reservoir information that is obtained and other factors. While a certain number of the unbooked drilling locations have been de-risked by Vermilion drilling existing wells in relative close proximity to such unbooked drilling locations, the majority of other unbooked drilling locations are farther away from existing wells where management of Vermilion has less information about the characteristics of the reservoir and therefore there is more uncertainty whether wells will be drilled in such locations and if drilled there is more uncertainty that such wells will result in additional oil and gas reserves, resources or production.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

The following is Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A"), dated March 4, 2026, of Vermilion Energy Inc.'s ("Vermilion", "we", "our", "us" or the "Company") operating and financial results as at and for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared with the corresponding periods in the prior year.

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, together with the accompanying notes (the "Consolidated Financial Statements"). Additional information relating to Vermilion, including its Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2025 ("Annual Information Form"), is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca or on Vermilion's website at www.vermilionenergy.com.

The Consolidated Financial Statements and comparative information have been prepared in Canadian dollars and in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards").

The operating results attributable to the Company's Saskatchewan and United States operations have been classified and presented as discontinued operations, with all other operating results presented as continuing operations. The prior period results have been presented to conform with current period presentation. See Note 6 – "Discontinued Operations" of the consolidated interim financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, for additional information.

This MD&A includes references to certain financial measures which are not specified, defined, or determined under IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore considered non-GAAP and other specified financial measures. These financial measures are unlikely to be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other issuers. For a full description of these non-GAAP and other specified financial measures and a reconciliation of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, please refer to "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures".

Product Type Disclosure

Under National Instrument 51-101 "Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities", disclosure of production volumes should include segmentation by product type as defined in the instrument. In this report, references to "crude oil" and "light and medium crude oil" mean "light crude oil and medium crude oil" , "tight oil" or "heavy oil" and references to "natural gas" mean "conventional natural gas", "shale gas" or "coal bed methane".

In addition, in Supplemental Table 4 "Production", Vermilion provides a reconciliation from total production volumes to product type and also a reconciliation of "crude oil and condensate" and "NGLs" to the product types "light crude oil and medium crude oil" and "natural gas liquids".

Production volumes reported are based on quantities as measured at the first point of sale.

<sup>(2)</sup> Fund flows from operations (FFO) and FFO per share are a total of segments measure and supplementary financial measure most directly comparable to net loss and net loss per share, respectively. The measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. FFO is comprised of sales less royalties, transportation, operating, general and administrative (G&A), corporate income tax, PRRT, interest expense, equity based compensation settled in cash, realized gain (loss) on derivatives, plus realized gain (loss) on foreign exchange and realized other income (expense). The measure is used to assess the contribution of each business unit to Vermilion's ability to generate income necessary to pay dividends, repay debt, fund asset retirement obligations and make capital investments. A reconciliation to the primary financial statement measures can be found within the "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures" section of this MD&A. Fund flows from continuing operations and fund flows from discontinued operations are calculated in the same manner as FFO and are most directly comparable to net earnings (loss) from continuing operations and net earnings (loss) discontinued operations, respectively.

<sup>(3)</sup> Free cash flow (FCF) is a non-GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to cash flows from operating activities; it does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. FCF is comprised of fund flows from operations less drilling and development costs and exploration and evaluation costs. FCF is used to determine the funding available for investing and financing activities including payment of dividends, repayment of long-term debt, reallocation into existing business units and deployment into new ventures. A reconciliation to primary financial statement measures can be found within the "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures" section of this MD&A.

<sup>(4)</sup> Net debt is a capital management measure in accordance with IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements" and is most directly comparable to long-term debt. Net debt is comprised of long-term debt (excluding unrealized foreign exchange on swapped USD borrowings) plus adjusted working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities, excluding current derivatives, current asset retirement obligations and current lease liabilities), and represents Vermilion's net financing obligations after adjusting for the timing of working capital fluctuations. Net debt excludes lease obligations which are secured by a corresponding right-of-use asset. A reconciliation to the primary financial statement measures can be found within the "Financial Position Review" section of this MD&A.

<sup>(5)</sup> Capital expenditures is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The measure is calculated as the sum of drilling and development costs and exploration and evaluation costs from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We consider capital expenditures to be a useful measure of our investment in our existing asset base. Capital expenditures are also referred to as E&D capital. A reconciliation to the primary financial statement measures can be found within the "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures" section of this MD&A.

------

<sup>(6)</sup> Acquisitions is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The measure is calculated as the sum of acquisitions, net of cash and acquisitions of securities from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, Vermilion common shares issued as consideration, the estimated value of contingent consideration, the amount of acquiree's outstanding long-term debt assumed, and net acquired working capital deficit or surplus. We believe that including these components provides a useful measure of the economic investment associated with our acquisition activity. A reconciliation to the acquisitions line item in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows can be found in "Supplemental Table 3: Capital Expenditures and Acquisitions" section of this MD&A.

<sup>(7)</sup> Dispositions is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not a standardized financial measure under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers. Dispositions is calculated as the sum of dispositions, and disposition of securities. Management believes that including these components provides a useful measure of the proceeds associated with our disposition activities and is most directly comparable to cash flows used in investing activities. More information and a reconciliation to dispositions and disposition of securities, the most directly comparable primary financial statement measures, can be found in the "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures" section of this document.

**Financial performance review**

*Q4 2025 vs. Q4 2024*

![Graphic](vet-20251231xex99d2001.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● We recorded a net loss of $437.7 million ($2.86/basic share) for Q4 2025 compared to $18.3 million ($0.12/basic share) in Q4 2024. The increase in net loss was primarily due to a non-cash impairment charge of $572.2 million, higher deferred tax expense and higher depletion on increased production. The increase was partially offset by favourable changes in our mark-to-market derivative position driven by European gas contracts, foreign exchange gains on our US denominated senior notes and Euro denominated intercompany loans, higher fund flows from operations attributable to the newly acquired production from the Westbrick assets and a gain on the disposition of investments, recorded in other, above.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 8 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

![Graphic](vet-20251231xex99d2002.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Cash flows from operating activities decreased to $133.4 million in Q4 2025 compared to $212.6 million in Q4 2024, while fund flows from operations declined to $240.7 million from $262.7 million over the same period. The decrease in FFO was primarily due to lower realized pricing, net of derivatives, partially offset by higher sales volumes, net of operating costs, driven by higher production in the Deep Basin and Montney. Variances between cash flows from operating activities and fund flows from operations are primarily driven by working capital timing differences.

*2025 vs. 2024*

![Graphic](vet-20251231xex99d2003.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● For the year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded a net loss of $653.6 million compared to $46.7 million for the 2024 comparable period. The increase in net loss was primarily attributable to impairment charges in the Australia, France and Ireland cash generating units, a net loss from discontinued operations driven by impairment charges, increased depletion and depreciation on higher production volumes and decreased fund flows from operations on lower realized derivative gains on European gas contracts. The decrease was partially offset by favourable changes in our mark-to-market derivative position, primarily on our European natural gas contracts.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 9 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

![Graphic](vet-20251231xex99d2004.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Compared to 2024, cash flows from operating activities in 2025 decreased by $24.1 million to $943.7 million and FFO decreased by $195.5 million to $1,010.3 million. The decrease in FFO was primarily driven by a reduction in realized gains on derivative contracts of $203.7 million, primarily on European natural gas contracts, lower crude oil pricing and higher interest expense on Q1 refinancing activities. The decrease was partially offset by stronger operational performance driven by the net impact of acquisition and disposition activity and lower taxes, partially offset by higher general and administrative expense on restructuring costs. Variances between cash flows from operating activities and fund flows from operations are primarily driven by working capital timing differences.

**Production review**

*Q4 2025 vs. Q4 2024*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Consolidated average production increased 45% to 121,308 boe/d in Q4 2025 compared to Q4 2024 production of 83,536 boe/d. Production increased as a result of the Westbrick acquisition which closed at the end of February 2025, combined with increased production in Germany. The increases were partially offset by the United States and Saskatchewan dispositions and natural well decline in Ireland and Australia.

*2025 vs. 2024*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Consolidated average production increased 42% to 119,919 boe/d in the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 84,543 boe/d in 2024. Production increased primarily as a result of the Westbrick acquisition, partially offset by the United States and Saskatchewan dispositions. Organic growth was driven by the Deep Basin and Montney, partially offset by natural well decline in Ireland and in the Netherlands.

**Activity review**

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, capital expenditures were $191.8 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● In our North America core region, we invested capital expenditures of $134.0 million in our liquids-rich gas assets in Canada:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In the Deep Basin, we drilled sixteen (16.0 net), completed fourteen (14.0 net), and brought on production seventeen (17.0 net) liquids-rich conventional natural gas wells.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In the Montney, we drilled four (4.0 net) liquids-rich shale gas wells that are expected to be completed and brought online in 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● In our International core region, capital expenditures of $57.8 million were invested:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In Germany, we invested $17.1 million, primarily in facilities to continue to advance our deep gas exploration program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In the Netherlands, we invested $13.9 million, primarily on completion and facilities activities to bring two (1.2 net) conventional natural gas wells online.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In France, we invested $14.5 million, primarily on subsurface maintenance and facilities activities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In Australia, $8.9 million was invested primarily on facilities activities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In Central and Eastern Europe, we invested $2.5 million, primarily on asset enhancement and maintenance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o In Ireland, $0.8 million was invested on facilities activities.

**Financial sustainability review**

*Free cash flow*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Free cash flow decreased by $207.5 million to $375.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily due to lower fund flows from operations on higher realized gains on derivative contracts realized in 2024 and lower FFO on discontinued operations, partially offset by strong operational performance from the Westbrick assets.

*Long-term debt and net debt*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● As at December 31, 2025, long-term debt increased to $1.2 billion (December 31, 2024 - $1.0 billion) primarily due to financing activities related to the $1.1 billion Westbrick acquisition, partially offset by proceeds received from the disposition of the United States and Saskatchewan assets and repurchases of our senior notes. Long-term debt also decreased on the foreign exchange impact of the US dollar weakening against the Canadian dollar on our US denominated senior unsecured notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● As at December 31, 2025, net debt totaled $1.3 billion, or an increase of $0.3 billion from December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the financing of the Westbrick acquisition in Q1 2025, partially offset by proceeds from dispositions of our U.S. and Saskatchewan assets and investments and strong excess free cash flow generation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The ratio of net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations <sup>(1)</sup> increased to 1.4 as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 - 0.8) primarily due to higher net debt on the 2025 acquisition and disposition activity, partially offset by higher four quarter trailing fund flows from continuing operations from the acquisition and disposition activity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations is a supplementary financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. It is calculated as net debt (capital measure) over the FFO from the preceding four quarters (total of segments measure). The measure is used to assess our ability to repay debt. Subsequent to February 26, 2025, net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations is calculated inclusive of Westbrick Energy's pre-acquisition four quarter trailing fund flows from operations, as if the acquisition of Westbrick Energy occurred at the beginning of the four quarter trailing period, and exclusive of the four quarter trailing fund flows from discontinued operations to reflect the Company's ability to repay debt on a pro forma basis.

<sup>(1)</sup> Natural gas in the Netherlands and Germany is benchmarked to the TTF and THE and production is generally equally split between day ahead ("DA") and month ahead ("MA") contracts. Natural gas in Ireland is benchmarked to the NBP and is sold on DA contracts.

As an internationally diversified producer, we are exposed to a range of commodity prices. In our North America core region, our crude oil is sold at benchmarks linked to WTI (including the Edmonton Sweet index and the Canadian C5+ index) and our natural gas is sold at benchmarks linked to the AECO index (in Canada) or the Henry Hub ("HH") index (in the United States). In our International core region, our crude oil is sold with reference to Dated Brent and our natural gas is sold with reference to NBP, TTF, or indices highly correlated to TTF.

![Graphic](vet-20251231xex99d2005.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Crude oil prices decreased in Q4 2025 relative to Q4 2024 due to views of global stockpiles growing in Q4 2025 and 2026. Canadian dollar WTI decreased by 16% and Dated Brent decreased by 15% in Q4 2025 relative to Q4 2024

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 12 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● In Canadian dollar terms, year-over-year, the Edmonton Sweet differential tightened by $1.19/bbl to a discount of $4.99/bbl against WTI. This is due to decreased supply as a result of additional TMX flows off the Canadian West coast. In addition, seasonally low crude inventory in Western Canada and low levels of apportionment on pipelines into the United States have contributed to stronger Canadian differentials.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Approximately 47% of Vermilion's Q4 2025 crude oil and condensate production was priced at the Dated Brent index, which averaged a premium to WTI of US$4.55/bbl; in Australia sales were executed at a $10.42/bbl premium to Dated Brent index. The remainder of our crude oil and condensate production was priced at the Canadian C5+, Edmonton Sweet, and WTI indices.

![Graphic](vet-20251231xex99d2006.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● In Canadian dollar terms, year-over-year, prices for European natural gas at NBP and TTF increased by 18% and 19% respectively on a month ahead basis. Prices increased in response to lower stockpiles across the EU due to the colder winter months, additional geopolitical risk and additional demand entering the global LNG market.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Year-over-year natural gas prices in Canadian dollar terms at NYMEX HH increased by 54% and AECO 7A increased by 29%. AECO prices increased in Q1 2025 due to strong winter storage withdrawals and outlooks of the startup of LNG Canada and remained relatively steady for the year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● For Q4 2025, average European natural gas prices represented a $12.63/mcf premium to AECO 7A. Approximately 22% of our natural gas production in Q4 2025 benefited from this premium European pricing (Q4 2024 - 40%). The decrease in our realized natural gas price from the prior period is primarily due to increased North American natural gas pricing exposure on Westbrick assets acquired in Q1 2025.

North America

During the second quarter of 2025, Vermilion entered into agreements to dispose of the Company's non-core assets in Saskatchewan and the United States, which were subsequently sold in the third quarter of 2025. As a result, the operating results for these assets have been presented as discontinued operations throughout this MD&A in accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations". Please refer to Note 6 "Discontinued operations" of the consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 for additional information. As a result, the continuing operations in North America consist of our Deep Basin and Mica Montney Canadian assets.

<sup>(1)</sup> General and administration and corporate income tax include amounts from our Corporate segment. General and administration expenses previously presented within the Corporate segment have been reclassified to our Canadian segment and the prior period results have been presented to conform with current period presentation. The increase in general and administration was primarily due to non-recurring acquisition and restructuring costs in 2025 and lower corporate costs allocated to International segments. Corporate income tax expense primarily relates to income taxes on Corporate segment activities.

Production from Vermilion's North American operations averaged 91,171 boe/d in Q4 2025, representing a 3% increase from Q3 2025. Production from Canadian continuing operations averaged 91,053 boe/d, representing a 6% increase from the prior quarter. The increase was primarily due to strong performance from recent Deep Basin wells and production from previously shut-in wells being brought back online.

In Q4 2025, the Company maintained a three-rig drilling program in the Deep Basin, drilling sixteen (16.0 net), completing fourteen (14.0 net), and bringing on production seventeen (17.0 net) liquids-rich gas wells. In the Montney, Vermilion drilled four (4.0 net) liquids-rich shale gas wells that are expected to be completed and brought online in 2026.

Sales in North America increased for three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily due to increased production in Alberta from the Westbrick acquisition and thirty six (33.3 net) new wells brought online subsequent to the acquisition and thirteen (13.0 net) new wells brought online in British Columbia in 2025. The increase was partially offset by decreased production in Saskatchewan and the United States due to disposition activity. Sales decreased on a per boe basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior period primarily due to change in product mix on the acquisition and disposition activity.

Royalties in North America decreased on a dollar basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily due to decreased crude production in Saskatchewan and the United States following the dispositions that closed in early Q3 2025 and lower realized liquids pricing. The decrease was partially offset by royalties on higher production from the Westbrick acquisition in Q1 2025 and new wells on production in British Columbia, and higher realized gas pricing. Royalties decreased on a per unit basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 primarily due to lower realized crude prices and the higher gas weighting in our production mix on the acquisition and disposition activity, which are subject to lower royalty rates relative to liquids. The decrease was partially offset by higher realized gas pricing.

Transportation expense in North America increased on a dollar basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year comparable periods primarily due to transportation costs on acquired Westbrick assets in Q1 2025, partially offset by lower transportation costs in Saskatchewan and the United States on disposal in early Q3 2025. On a per boe basis, transportation expense decreased for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to lower pipeline fees on Montney production.

Operating expenses in North America decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2025, mainly due to lower expenses in Saskatchewan and the U.S. from the asset dispositions completed in the third quarter of 2025 and reduced costs in the Montney for trucking and gas processing fees in the fourth quarter of 2025. The decrease was partially offset by the increased expenses in Alberta following the Westbrick acquisition in the first quarter of 2025.

Operating expenses in North America increased for the year ended December 31, 2025, mainly due to higher volumes associated with the Westbrick acquisition in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by lower expenses in Saskatchewan and the U.S. from the asset dispositions recently completed and reduced costs in the Montney for trucking, downhole maintenance and gas processing. Operating expense decreased on a per boe basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to lower per unit operating costs on increased production impacted by the Westbrick acquisition and new wells coming on production in British Columbia.

Production from Vermilion's International operations averaged 30,137 boe/d in Q4 2025, a decrease of 1% from Q3 2025 with new production in the Netherlands and increasing gas production in Germany largely offsetting natural declines in Ireland, Australia and Croatia.

In the Netherlands, Vermilion completed and brought on production two (1.2 net) conventional natural gas wells in Q4 2025. The Company also progressed preliminary work to facilitate drilling one (0.5 net) well in Netherlands in 2026, including receiving certain required permits. In Germany, the Company progressed infrastructure build-out on the Wisselshorst well during Q4 2025 and expects first production from this well in the first half of 2026. In addition, the Osterheide well (1.0 net) that was brought on production earlier in the year increased production in Q4 2025, with average production of 10 mmcf/d in the quarter.

Sales decreased on a dollar and per boe basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily due to lower realized commodity prices and inventory levels. Sales on a per boe basis for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased compared to the prior year primarily due to lower realized oil pricing partially offset by higher realized European gas pricing.

Royalties in our International core region are primarily incurred in France, Germany, the Netherlands and Croatia, where royalties, depending on jurisdiction, include charges based on a percentage of sales and fixed per boe charges. Our production in Australia and Ireland is not subject to royalties.

Royalties on a per boe basis decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily due to lower commodity pricing in France and lower sales volumes and royalty rates in Croatia, partially offset by higher royalties on the Osterheide startup volumes in Germany. On a dollar basis, royalties for the three months ended December 31, 2025 remained relatively flat compared to the prior year period. Royalties on a dollar and per boe basis increased for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to prior year primarily due to higher royalties on the Osterheide startup volumes in Germany and higher production volumes from the SA-10 block in Croatia, which carried higher associated royalty rates.

Transportation expense increased for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 on a dollar basis compared to the prior year primarily due to a credit received in Q4 2024 in Ireland, the timing of vessels in France and gas transportation costs on the Osterheide startup volumes in Germany. On a per boe basis, transportation expense increased for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily due to a credit received in Q4 2024 in Ireland and higher vessel costs in France.

Our production in Australia, Netherlands and Central and Eastern Europe is not subject to transportation expense.

Operating expenses increased on a dollar basis for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to prior period gas compression tariff adjustments in Germany and the timing of inventory in Australia. For the three months ended December 31, 2025, operating expenses increased on a per boe basis primarily due to costs spread across lower production volumes during a planned turnaround in Australia, fixed costs spread across lower production volumes in Ireland and prior period adjustments in Germany. During the year ended December 31, 2025, operating expenses decreased on a dollar basis primarily due to lower sales volumes in Australia and lower fuel and electricity fees in the Netherlands, partially offset by prior period adjustments in Germany. On a per boe basis, operating expenses remained relatively flat for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year primarily due to increases from fixed costs spread across lower production volumes in Ireland and higher fuel and electricity costs in France, partially offset by costs spread across higher production volumes in Germany.

**Consolidated Financial Performance Review**

Fluctuations in fund flows from operations, including fund flows from continuing operations and fund flows from discontinued operations may occur as a result of changes in production levels, commodity prices, and costs to produce petroleum and natural gas. In addition, fund flows from operations may be affected by the timing of crude oil shipments in Australia and France. When crude oil inventory is built up, the related operating expense, royalties, and depletion expense are deferred and carried as inventory on the consolidated balance sheet. When the crude oil inventory is subsequently drawn down, the related expenses are recognized within profit or loss.

*General and administration*

● For the three months ended December 31, 2025, total general and administration expense decreased compared to the same period in the prior year due to the timing of expenditures. General and administration expense increased for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024 primarily due to transaction costs related to the Westbrick acquisition and restructuring costs in Canada.

*Equity based compensation*

● Equity based compensation included within funds flow from operations primarily relates to the settlement of withholding taxes on long-term incentives granted to directors, officers, and employees under security-based arrangements via cash, which were previously settled through the issuance and sale of shares from treasury. Equity based compensation settled in cash decreased for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily due to the higher value of LTIP in the prior year.

*PRRT and corporate income taxes*

● PRRT recoveries were higher for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024 due to lower sales and higher capital expenditures in Australia.

● Corporate income taxes for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 decreased compared to the prior year comparable periods mainly due to lower sales in France and in the Netherlands, accelerated asset retirement deductions in Germany and accelerated tax depletion deductions related to capital programs in Germany and in the Netherlands.

*Interest expense*

● Interest expense for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 increased due to higher debt levels driven by the issuance of the 2033 senior notes for US $400.0 million, draws on the revolving credit facility and $450.0 million term loan, which was drawn in Q1 2025 and subsequently repaid. The increases were partially offset by the repayment of the US $300.0 million 2025 senior notes.

*Realized gain or loss on derivatives*

● For the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, we recorded realized gains on our natural gas and crude oil hedges due to lower commodity pricing compared to the strike prices.

● A listing of derivative positions as at December 31, 2025 is included in "Supplemental Table 2" of this MD&A.

*Realized other income or expense*

● Realized other expense for the three months ended December 31, 2025 remained relatively flat compared to the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2025, realized other expense increased primarily related to an estimated provision recognized to satisfy work commitments.

**Net earnings (loss)**

Fluctuations in net loss from period-to-period are caused by changes in both cash and non-cash based income and charges. Cash based items are reflected in fund flows from operations. Non-cash items include: equity based compensation expense, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments, unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, accretion, depletion and depreciation expense, and deferred taxes. In addition, non-cash items may also include gains or losses resulting from acquisition or disposition activity or charges resulting from impairment or impairment reversals.

*Equity based compensation*

Equity based compensation expense relates included within net loss and excluded from funds flow from operations relates to non-cash compensation expense attributable to long-term incentives granted to directors, officers, and employees under security-based arrangements. Equity based compensation expense decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2025 versus the prior year primarily due to lower value of LTIP awards outstanding in the current year. Equity based compensation increased for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the cash settlement of previously share-based settled expenses at a higher value of LTIP in the prior year.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 20 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

*Unrealized gain or loss on derivative instruments*

Unrealized gain or loss on derivative instruments arises as a result of changes in forecasts for future prices and rates. As Vermilion uses derivative instruments to manage the commodity price exposure of our future crude oil and natural gas production, we will normally recognize unrealized gains on derivative instruments when future commodity price forecasts decline and vice-versa. As derivative instruments are settled, the unrealized gain or loss previously recognized is reversed, and the settlement results in a realized gain or loss on derivative instruments.

Cross currency interest rate swaps and foreign exchange swaps may be entered into to manage foreign exchange and interest rate exposures on USD denominated debt. Unrealized gains and losses on these instruments are partially offset by the unrealized foreign exchange losses and gains on the underlying debt.

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recognized a net unrealized gain on derivative instruments of $53.9 million. This consists of unrealized gains of $25.1 million on our European natural gas commodity derivative instruments, $17.7 million on our crude oil and liquids commodity derivative instruments, $11.6 million on our North America gas commodity derivative instruments and $1.9 million on our equity swaps, partially offset by unrealized losses of $5.9 million on our USD-to-CAD foreign exchange swaps.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we recognized a net unrealized gain on derivative instruments of $116.3 million. This consists of unrealized gains of $111.4 million on our European natural gas commodity derivative instruments, $24.8 million on our crude oil and liquids commodity derivative instruments and $4.8 million on our USD-to-CAD foreign exchange swaps, partially offset by unrealized losses of $12.1 million on our cross currency interest rate swaps, $8.1 million on our equity swaps and $8.0 million on our North American gas commodity derivative instruments.

*Unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses*

As a result of Vermilion's international operations, Vermilion has monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar. These monetary assets and liabilities include cash, receivables, payables, long-term debt, derivative instruments and intercompany loans. Unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses result from translating these monetary assets and liabilities from their underlying currency to the Canadian dollar.

In 2025, unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses primarily resulted from:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The translation of Euro and US dollar denominated intercompany loans to and from our international subsidiaries to Vermilion Energy Inc. An appreciation in the Euro and/or the US dollar against the Canadian dollar will result in an unrealized foreign exchange loss (and vice-versa). Under IFRS Accounting Standards, the offsetting foreign exchange loss or gain is recorded as a currency translation adjustment within other comprehensive income. As a result, consolidated comprehensive income reflects the offsetting of these translation adjustments while net loss reflects only the parent company's side of the translation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The translation of our USD denominated 2030 senior unsecured notes and USD denominated 2033 senior unsecured notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● The translation of USD borrowings on our revolving credit facility. The unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses on these borrowings are offset by unrealized derivative gains or losses on associated USD-to-CAD cross currency interest rate swaps.

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, we recognized a net unrealized foreign exchange gain of $30.2 million, primarily driven by the effects of the US dollar weakening 1.5% against the Canadian dollar on our US denominated debt combined with the effects of the Euro weakening 1.5% against the Canadian dollar on our Euro denominated intercompany loans. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we recognized a net unrealized foreign exchange loss of $41.1 million, primarily driven by the effects of the Euro strengthening 7.6% against the Canadian dollar on our Euro denominated intercompany loans, partially offset by the impact of the US dollar weakening 4.7% against the Canadian dollar on our US denominated debt.

*Unrealized other income (expense)*

Unrealized other income for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily comprised of the $12.0 million gain on disposition of securities in Q4 2025, partially offset by a net $4.0 million unrealized loss on the dispositions of the United States and Saskatchewan assets.

*Accretion*

Accretion expense is recognized to update the present value of asset retirement obligations. For the three months and year ended December 31, 2025, accretion expense increased primarily due to the impact of the Euro strengthening against the Canadian dollar partially offset by lower asset retirement obligation driven by dispositions in Canada and the United States and changes in estimates in Germany.

*Depletion and depreciation*

Depletion and depreciation expense is recognized to allocate the cost of capital assets over the useful life of the respective assets. Depletion and depreciation expense per unit of production is determined for each depletion unit (which are groups of assets within a specific production area that have similar economic lives) by dividing the sum of the net book value of capital assets and future development costs by total proved plus probable reserves.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 21 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

Fluctuations in depletion and depreciation expense are primarily the result of changes in produced crude oil and natural gas volumes, and changes in depletion and depreciation per unit. Fluctuations in depletion and depreciation per unit are the result of changes in reserves, depletable base (net book value of capital assets and future development costs), and relative production mix.

Depletion and depreciation on a per boe basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025 of $18.63 and $16.99 decreased from $21.56 and $21.92 in the same periods of the prior year primarily due to decreases in the depletable base on asset retirement obligation assets in Europe, in addition to the reserves and future development costs added as part of the Westbrick acquisition and increased reserves at Mica. The decrease was partially offset by the strengthening of the Euro against the Canadian dollar.

*Deferred tax*

Deferred tax assets arise when the tax basis of an asset exceeds its accounting basis (known as a deductible temporary difference). Conversely, deferred tax liabilities arise when the tax basis of an asset is less than its accounting basis (known as a taxable temporary difference). Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the enacted or substantively enacted tax rate that is expected to apply when the asset is realized, or the liability is settled.

As such, fluctuations in deferred tax expenses and recoveries primarily arise as a result of: changes in the accounting basis of an asset or liability without a corresponding tax basis change (e.g. when derivative assets and liabilities are marked-to-market or when accounting depletion differs from tax depletion), changes in available tax losses (e.g. if they are utilized to offset taxable income), changes in estimated future taxable profits resulting in a derecognition or recognition of deferred tax assets, and changes in enacted or substantively enacted tax rates.

The Company recorded a deferred tax recovery of $31.8 million on continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to a deferred tax recovery of $81.0 million for the same period in the prior year. The deferred tax recovery for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was primarily driven by impairment charges in Australia, France and Ireland, partially offset by the derecognition of deferred tax assets in Ireland and Canada. In 2025, the Company recorded deferred tax expense $16.9 million on continuing operations compared to a deferred tax recovery of $51.9 million for the same period in the prior year. The deferred tax expense in 2025 mainly related to changes in our derivatives mark-to-market position, changes in temporary differences in Canada and Ireland, partially offset by the deferred tax recovery on impairment charges in Australia, France and Ireland.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a deferred tax recovery of $54.5 million on discontinued operations compared to deferred tax expense of $13.9 million for the same period in the prior year. The deferred tax recovery for the year ended December 31, 2025 was driven by the impairment recorded for the Saskatchewan and U.S. assets disposed.

*Impairment*

In the fourth quarter of 2025, indicators of impairment were present in our Australia, France and Ireland CGUs due to changes in forecasted cost assumptions. As a result of the indicators of impairment, the Company performed impairment calculations on the identified CGUs and the recoverable amounts were determined using fair value less costs to sell, which considered future after - tax cash flows from proved plus probable reserves and an after - tax discount rate of 15.0%. Based on the results of the impairment tests completed, the Company recognized non - cash impairment charges of $572.2 million. Inputs used in the measurement of capital assets are not based on observable market data and fall within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Taxes

**Current income tax rates**

Vermilion typically pays corporate income taxes in France, Netherlands, Australia, Germany and Croatia. In addition, Vermilion pays PRRT in Australia which is a profit based tax applied at a rate of 40% on sales less operating expenses, capital expenditures, and other eligible expenditures. PRRT is deductible in the calculation of taxable income in Australia.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 22 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

---

<sup>(1)</sup> In the Netherlands, an additional 10% uplift deduction is allowed against taxable income that is applied to operating expenses, eligible general and administration expenses, and tax deductions for depletion and abandonment retirement obligations.

**Tax legislation changes**

In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") issued model rules for a new global minimum tax framework ("Pillar Two"). The objective of Pillar Two is to ensure that large multinational enterprises are subjected to a minimum 15% effective tax rate in each jurisdiction in which they operate.

All of the countries where Vermilion operates have enacted tax legislation to comply with Pillar Two with effect from January 1, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $6.5 million of income tax expense relating to Pillar Two.

In May 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12, "Income Taxes" ("IAS 12") to address the impacts and additional disclosure requirements related to Pillar Two. Vermilion has applied the mandatory exception required by IAS 12 and accordingly has not accounted for any related deferred income tax assets or liabilities.

**Tax pools**

As at December 31, 2025, we had the following tax pools:

Financial Position Review

**Balance sheet strategy**

We regularly review whether our forecast of fund flows from operations is sufficient to finance planned capital expenditures, dividends, share buy-backs, and abandonment and reclamation expenditures. To the extent that fund flows from operations forecasts are not expected to be sufficient to fulfill such expenditures, we will evaluate our ability to finance any shortfall by reducing some or all categories of expenditures, with issuances of equity, and/or with debt (including borrowing using the unutilized capacity of our existing revolving credit facility). We have a long-term goal of maintaining a ratio of net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations of approximately 1.0.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 23 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

As at December 31, 2025, we have a ratio of net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations of 1.4.

**Net debt**

Net debt is reconciled to long-term debt, as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **As at** | **As at** |
| **($M)** | **Dec 31, 2025** | **Dec 31, 2024** |
| Long-term debt | **1243397** | 963456 |
| Adjusted working capital <sup>(1)</sup> | **96091** | 3426 |
| Unrealized FX on swapped USD borrowings <sup>(2)</sup> | **2902** |  |
| **Net debt** | **1342390** | 966882 |
| **Ratio of net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations** <sup>(3)</sup> | **1.4** | 0.8 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Adjusted working capital is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not standardized under IFRS Accounting Standards and may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers. It is defined as current assets less current liabilities, excluding current derivatives, current asset retirement obligations and current lease liabilities. The measure is used to calculate net debt, a capital measure disclosed above. Reconciliation to the primary financial statement measures can be found in the "Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures" section of this document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Vermilion may enter into cross currency interest rate swaps to hedge the foreign exchange movements on USD borrowings on our revolving credit facility. Unrealized FX on swapped USD borrowings relates to the unrealized gains and losses on our cross currency interest swaps. At December 31, 2025, there was $196.7 million of USD borrowings on our revolving credit facility. (December 31, 2024 - $nil).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Subsequent to February 26, 2025, net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations is calculated inclusive of Westbrick Energy's pre-acquisition four quarter trailing fund flows from operations, as if the acquisition of Westbrick Energy occurred at the beginning of the four quarter trailing period, and exclusive of the four quarter trailing fund flows from discontinued operations to reflect the Company's ability to repay debt on a pro forma basis.

As at December 31, 2025, net debt increased to $1.3 billion (December 31, 2024 - $1.0 billion) primarily due to the financing of the Westbrick acquisition in Q1 2025. The increase was partially offset by the proceeds received from the disposition of the Saskatchewan and United States assets and strong free cash flow generation primarily driven by stronger operational performance from the Westbrick assets acquired.

The ratio of net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations<sup>(1)</sup> increased to 1.4 as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 - 0.8) primarily due to higher net debt on acquisition and disposition activity.

**Long-term debt**

Our financial covenants include financial measures defined within our revolving credit facility agreement that are not defined under IFRS Accounting Standards. These financial measures are defined by our revolving credit facility agreement as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Consolidated total debt: Includes all amounts classified as "Long-term debt", "Current portion of long-term debt", and "Lease obligations" (including the current portion included within "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" but excluding operating leases as defined under IAS 17) on our consolidated balance sheet.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Consolidated total senior debt: Consolidated total debt excluding unsecured and subordinated debt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Consolidated EBITDA: Consolidated net loss before interest, income taxes, depreciation, accretion and certain other non-cash items, adjusted for the impact of the acquisition of a material subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Total interest expense: Includes all amounts classified as "Interest expense", but excludes interest on operating leases as defined under IAS 17.

As at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Vermilion was in compliance with the above covenants.

*Term loan*

Concurrent with the completion of the Westbrick acquisition on February 26, 2025, Vermilion's credit facility agreement was amended to incorporate a new $450.0 million term loan (the "Term Loan") which was immediately drawn. The Term Loan balance was repaid in full in 2025.

*2025 senior unsecured notes*

On March 13, 2017, Vermilion issued US $300.0 million of senior unsecured notes at par. The notes bore interest at a rate of 5.625% per annum and were paid semi-annually on March 15 and September 15. During the year ended December 31, 2024, Vermilion purchased $31.6 million of senior unsecured notes on the open market which were subsequently cancelled. The notes matured on March 15, 2025 and the balance was repaid in full.

*2030 senior unsecured notes*

On April 26, 2022, Vermilion closed a private offering of US $400.0 million of senior unsecured notes, priced at 99.241% of par.

<sup>(3)</sup> Commitments denominated in foreign currencies have been translated using the related spot rates on December 31, 2025.

Asset Retirement Obligations

As at December 31, 2025, asset retirement obligations were $1.0 billion compared to $1.2 billion as at December 31, 2024. The decrease in asset retirement obligations is primarily attributable to changes in rates combined with the United States and Saskatchewan dispositions, partially offset by the foreign exchange impact of the Euro strengthening against the Canadian dollar and the acquisition of Westbrick asset retirement obligations. The credit spread increased to 4.4% at December 31, 2025 compared to 2.6% at December 31, 2024 primarily due to a higher expected cost of borrowing.

The present value of the obligation is calculated using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate, calculated using a credit spread added to risk-free rates based on long-term, risk-free government bonds. Vermilion's credit spread is determined using the Company's expected cost of borrowing at the end of the reporting period.

The risk-free rates and credit spread used as inputs to discount the obligations were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Dec 31, 2025** | **Dec 31, 2024** | **Change** |
| Credit spread added to below noted risk-free rates | **4.4%** | 2.6% | 1.8% |
| **Country specific risk-free rate** |  |  |  |

Risks and Uncertainties

Crude oil and natural gas exploration, production, acquisition and marketing operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties that have affected the financial statements and are reasonably likely to affect them in the future. Some of these risks and uncertainties are discussed further below. Many additional risks and uncertainties are outline in the Annual Information Form, which is available on our website at www.vermilionenergy.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Additional risks and uncertainties, not discussed or that management may be unaware of, may become important factors which affect Vermilion.

*Commodity prices*

Crude oil and natural gas prices have fluctuated significantly in recent years due to supply and demand factors. Changes in crude oil and natural gas prices affect the level of revenue we generate, the amount of proceeds we receive and payments we make on our commodity derivative instruments, and the level of taxes that we pay. In addition, lower crude oil and natural gas prices would reduce the recoverable amount of our capital assets and could result in impairments or impairment reversals.

*Exchange rates*

Exchange rate changes impact the Canadian dollar equivalent revenue and costs that we recognize. The majority of our crude oil and condensate revenue stream is priced in US dollars and as such an increase in the strength of the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar would result in the receipt of fewer Canadian dollars for our revenue. We also incur expenses and capital costs in US dollars, Euros and Australian dollars and thus a decrease in strength of the Canadian dollar relative to those currencies may result in the payment of more Canadian dollars for our expenditures.

In addition, exchange rate changes impact the Canadian equivalent carrying balances for our assets and liabilities. For foreign currency denominated monetary assets (such as cash and cash equivalents, long-term debt, and intercompany loans), the impact of changes in exchange rates is recorded in net loss as a foreign exchange gain or loss.

*Production and sales volumes*

Our production and sales volumes affect the level of revenue we generate and correspondingly the royalties and taxes that we pay. In addition, significant declines in production or sales volumes due to unforeseen circumstances may also result in an indicator of impairment and potential impairment charges.

*Interest rates*

Changes in interest rates impact the amount of interest expense we pay on our variable rate debt and also our ability to obtain fixed rate financing in the future.

*Tax and royalty rates*

Changes in tax and royalty rates in the jurisdictions that we operate in would impact the amount of current taxes and royalties that we pay. In addition, changes to substantively enacted tax rates would impact the carrying balance of deferred tax assets and liabilities, potentially resulting in a deferred tax recovery or incremental deferred tax expense.

Vermilion was exposed to increased taxation and royalties due to windfall taxes on profits in 2022 and 2023. Windfall taxes were enacted within the European Union for oil and gas companies at a minimum rate of 33% calculated on taxable profits above a 20% increase in the average yearly taxable profits as compared to 2018 to 2021. There is risk that windfall taxes or similar mechanisms will be re-enacted or similar legislation could be enacted in other jurisdictions that Vermilion operates in periods of extraordinary commodity prices.

*Geopolitical tensions*

Ongoing global geopolitical tensions, including the war in Ukraine, conflicts in the Middle East and heightened uncertainty related to developments in Venezuela, continue to contribute to uncertainty in global economic conditions and energy markets. These factors have continued to influence global oil and gas supply dynamics, trade flows, and sanctions regimes, contributing to ongoing volatility in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and capital markets. In addition, heightened geopolitical uncertainty has increased the risk of disruptions to energy infrastructure, transportation routes, and global economic activity.

The risks disclosed in our Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2025 may be exacerbated as a result of these tensions, including: market risks including volatility of oil and gas prices, volatility of foreign exchange rates, volatility of market price of common shares, hedging arrangements; regulatory and political risks including tax, royalty, and other government legislation; financing risks including additional financing, debt service, variations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; acquisition and expansion risks including international operations and future geographical/industry expansion, acquisition assumptions, failure to realize anticipated benefits of prior acquisitions.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 28 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

*Global tariffs*

The global geopolitical landscape continues to be influenced by the current policies of the United States, particularly in relation to trade and tariffs. The potential imposition of tariffs, especially on Canadian goods, including crude oil, may create economic challenges for the oil and gas sector. These trade barriers if fully enacted may disrupt supply chains, raise costs, and impact the competitiveness of Canadian exports. The risks disclosed in our Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2025 may be exacerbated as a result of these tensions, including: market risks including volatility of oil and gas prices, volatility of foreign exchange rates, volatility of market price of common shares, hedging arrangements; regulatory and political risks including tax, royalty, and other government legislation; financing risks including additional financing, debt service, variations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; acquisition and expansion risks including international operations and future geographical/industry expansion, acquisition assumptions, failure to realize anticipated benefits of prior acquisitions.

In addition to the above, we are exposed to risk factors that impact our company and business. For further information on these risk factors, please refer to our Annual Information Form, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca or on our website at www.vermilionenergy.com.

Financial Risk Management

To mitigate the risks affecting our business whenever possible, we seek to hire personnel with experience in specific areas. In addition, we provide continued training and development to staff to further develop their skills. When appropriate, we use third party consultants with relevant experience to augment our internal capabilities with respect to certain risks.

We consider our commodity price risk management program as a form of insurance that protects our cash flow and rate of return. The primary objective of the risk management program is to support our return of capital and internal capital development programs. The level of commodity price risk management that occurs is dependent on the amount of debt that is carried. When debt levels are higher, we will be more active in protecting our cash flow stream through our commodity price risk management strategy.

When executing our commodity price risk management programs, we use derivative financial instruments encompassing over-the-counter financial structures, as well as fixed and collar structures to economically hedge a part of our physical crude oil and natural gas production. We have strict controls and guidelines in relation to these activities and contract principally with counterparties that have investment grade credit ratings.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards requires us to make estimates. Critical accounting estimates are those accounting estimates that require us to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made and a different estimate could have been made in the current period or the estimate could change period-to-period.

*The carrying amount of asset retirement obligations*

The carrying amount of asset retirement obligations ($959.7 million as at December 31, 2025) is the present value of estimated future costs, discounted from the estimated abandonment date using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate. Estimated future costs are based on our assessment of regulatory requirements and the present condition of our assets. The estimated abandonment date is based on the reserve life of the associated assets. The credit-adjusted risk-free rate is based on prevailing interest rates for the appropriate term, risk-free government bonds adjusted for our estimated credit spread (determined by reference to the trading prices for debt issued by similarly rated independent oil and gas producers, including our own senior unsecured notes). Changes in these estimates would result in a change in the carrying amount of asset retirement obligations and capital assets and, to a significantly lesser degree, future accretion and depletion expense.

The estimated abandonment date may change from period to period as the estimated abandonment date changes in response to new information, such as changes in reserve life assumptions or regulations. A one year increase or decrease in the estimated abandonment date would decrease or increase asset retirement obligations (with an offsetting increase to capital assets) by approximately $57.5 million.

The estimated credit-adjusted risk-free rate may change from period to period in response to market conditions in Canada and the international jurisdictions that we operate in. A 0.5% increase or decrease in the credit-adjusted risk-free rate would decrease or increase asset retirement obligations by approximately $53.1 million.

*The fair value of capital assets acquired in business combinations*

In preparing the purchase price allocation for business combinations, we estimate the fair value of assets acquired. Assets acquired in an acquisition primarily relate to the crude oil and natural gas reserves. The estimated fair value of the crude oil and natural gas reserves acquired is based on the present value of proved plus probable reserves and forecast commodity prices. Changes in these assumptions, including the discount rate used, would

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 29 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

change the amount of capital assets recognized and as a result may cause rise to goodwill or gains recognized on the acquisition and future depletion and depreciation expense.

*The recognition of deferred tax assets*

The extent to which deferred tax assets are recognized are based on estimates of future profitability. These estimates are based on estimated future commodity prices and estimates of reserves. As at December 31, 2025, the deferred tax asset balance of $19.0 million mainly relates to Ireland (December 31, 2024 - Canada for $162.1 million and Ireland for $33.8 million).

In Ireland, we have $758.8 million of non-expiring tax loss pools where $189.7 million of deferred tax assets has not been recognized as there is uncertainty on our ability to fully use these losses based on estimated future taxable profits. Estimated future taxable profits are calculated using proved and probable reserves and forecast pricing.

In Canada, we have $144.2 million of non-expiring oil and gas tax pools where $33.8 million of deferred tax assets has not been recognized as there is uncertainty on our ability to fully use these pools based on estimated future taxable profits. Estimated future taxable profits are calculated using proved and probable reserves and forecast pricing.

*Depletion and depreciation*

Capital assets are grouped into depletion units, which are groups of assets within a specific production area that have similar economic lives. Depletion units represent the lowest level of disaggregation for which costs are accumulated for the purposes of calculating depletion and depreciation.

The net carrying value of each depletion unit is depleted using the unit of production method by reference to the ratio of production in the period to the total proved and probable reserves, taking into account the future development costs necessary to bring the applicable reserves into production. Key judgments that are made to reserve estimates such as revisions in reserves, changes in forecast commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, capital or operating costs would impact the amount of depletion and depreciation recorded in a period.

*The estimated recoverable amount of cash generating units*

Each reporting period, we assess our CGUs for indicators of impairment or impairment reversal. If an indicator of impairment or impairment reversal is identified, we estimate the recoverable amount of the CGU. Judgment is required when determining whether indicators of impairment or impairment reversal exist, as well as judgments made when determining the recoverable amount of a CGU. Changes in any of the key judgments, such as a revision in reserves, changes in forecast commodity prices, foreign exchange rates, capital or operating costs would impact the estimated recoverable amount.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, indicators of impairment were present in our France, Australia and Ireland CGUs due to changes in forecasted pricing. As a result of the indicators of impairment, the Company performed impairment calculations on the identified CGUs and the recoverable amounts were determined using fair value less costs to sell, which considered future after-tax cash flows from proved plus probable reserves and an after-tax discount rate of 15.0%. Based on the results of the impairment tests completed, the Company recognized non-cash impairment charges of $572.2 million. Inputs used in the measurement of capital assets are not based on observable market data and fall within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. A 1% increase in the assumed after-tax discount rate would reduce the estimated recoverable amount of assets tested and result in a higher impairment of $28.1 million while a 5% decrease in revenues (due to a decrease in commodity price forecasts or reserve estimates) would reduce the estimated recoverable amount of assets tested and result in higher impairment of $101.2 million.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any guarantee or off balance sheet arrangements that would materially impact our financial position or results of operations.

Cybersecurity

Vermilion has an information security training and compliance program that is completed at least annually. We have not experienced a cybersecurity breach in the last three years.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

*Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates*

On January 1, 2025, Vermilion adopted the amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") that contains guidance as to when a currency is exchangeable and how to determine the

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 30 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

------

exchange rate when it is not. The amendment also includes additional disclosure when a currency is not exchangeable. There was no impact to Vermilion's financial statements.

Vermilion did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements as at December 31, 2025 that would have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Regulatory Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

*Issuance of IFRS Sustainability Standards - IFRS S1 "General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information" and IFRS S2 "Climate-related Disclosures" and European Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)*

In June 2023, the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) issued its inaugural standards – IFRS S1 and IFRS S2.

The Canadian Sustainability Standards Board has issued Canada-specific version of IFRS S1 and S2 as Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards 1 and 2. While Canadian securities regulators have not mandated these standards, they have referenced them as a useful voluntary disclosure framework for sustainability and climate-related disclosure, and noted that securities legislation already requires issuers to disclose material climate-related risks. Australia has mandated the Australian version of IFRS S2 as Australian Accounting Standards Board S2 with mandatory disclosure for Vermilion in 2025, reporting in 2026. While the EU implemented the CSRD and its related European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) in 2024, the April 2025 "Stop-the Clock" directive delayed the CSRD reporting date for non-EU parent companies and the February 2026 Omnibus legislation simplified reporting requirements. These changes have delayed Vermilion's parent-level reporting date from 2025 to 2028 (reporting in 2029); however, the parent company reporting details are still under discussion and may further adjust scope and timing. Vermilion is continuing to review the impact of the standards on its financial reporting.

*IFRS 18 "Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements issued"*

In April 2024, the IASB issued the new accounting standard, IFRS 18 'Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements'. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 'Presentation of Financial Statements' and provides a defined structure to the statement of net earnings (loss) and comprehensive income and related disclosure requirements. Key changes include a new operating profit subtotal and requires income and expenses to be classified into operating, investing, and financing categories, based on the entity's main business activities. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and is required to be adopted retrospectively. Vermilion is currently reviewing income and expense classifications, management-defined performance measures, and contractual arrangements to assess the impact the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

*Amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosure*

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' and IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures' relating to settling financial liabilities using an electronic payment system and assessing contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets. The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2026, but are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD)

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)

Vermilion's purpose is to responsibly produce essential energy while delivering long-term value to our stakeholders. We believe that applying sustainability principles strengthens shareholder returns, expands opportunities, reduces risks, and supports the communities in which we operate.

Vermilion has reported on sustainability since 2014, originally aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). Our report now incorporates guidance from the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD), the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) (including Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, SASB) and the Canadian Sustainability Standards Board (CSSB).

We use the TCFD framework to manage climate and broader sustainability risks and opportunities, acknowledging how climate issues connect with environmental impacts, social factors such as safety and community engagement, and governance issues. Index:

Sustainability and Climate-Related Strategy

Vermilion recognizes stakeholder expectations that we deliver strong financial performance responsibly and ethically. We prioritize:

● the safety and health of everyone involved in our operations;

● protecting the environment by applying the UN Precautionary Principle: assessing environmental risks in decision-making, and seeking to continually improve performance; and

● achieving economic success through operational excellence, including efficiency, technical strength, strong stakeholder relations, and fair treatment of staff, contractors, partners and suppliers.

**Description of Sustainability- and Climate-related Risks and Opportunities, and Impacts**

We identify climate-related risks and opportunities across short-term (0–3 years), medium-term (3–6 years) and long-term (6–50 years) horizons, using scenario analysis, cost projections and our internally-developed Emissions Long-Range Planning tool to estimate potential impacts and inform management responses. Risk descriptions can be found in our Annual Information Form and in our Sustainability Report, both available at vermilionenergy.com.

**Resilience of the Company's Strategy**

The Board of Directors and Executive Committee have responded to our risk and opportunity identification using a scenario analysis that references models from the World Economic Forum, IEA, Equinor, BP, Exxon, OPEC, and EIA. Note that these analyses are neither predictions nor forecasts; while they rely on the work of credible third-party organizations, they are constructions based on circumstances and assumptions that are highly vulnerable to macroeconomic and geopolitical changes. While there are significant inherent uncertainties in how the energy transition will evolve, we have identified key influencing factors: government policy, technology adoption, energy demand/supply, consumer behavior, capital availability, and reputation. Physical climate risks have been modeled using IPCC RCP 4.5, identifying impacts such as rising temperatures, aridity, and sea levels.

These factors have informed our discussions on business strategy, resilience, and risk identification and management. Our resulting business model involves responsible production of essential oil and natural gas for as long as these forms of energy are needed, while exploring lower-carbon energy sources that are an economic and synergistic fit. Sustainability strategy is integrated into this model using three pillars: Climate (discussed below), Conservation and Community (see our Sustainability Report).

*Climate Strategy*

Due to uncertainties in policy, regulations, carbon taxation, technology development, geopolitics, methane reduction alternatives and costs, and carbon accounting changes, this strategy is dynamic, with annual data updates and comprehensive reviews every three to five years to adapt to evolving economic, technological, legal and regulatory landscapes. We are focused first on emission intensity reduction, integrating emissions considerations into acquisitions and divestments, and fostering research and development partnerships to support energy alternatives. This includes validating capital and carbon abatement costs in key business units, monitoring government and regulatory requirements and support for energy alternatives bearing higher economic risks, such as carbon capture and storage and hydrogen production, and implementing centralized emissions quantification for improved tracking and forecasting.

Our climate strategy includes four pillars:

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Pillar** | **Focus** | **Estimated<br>Contribution** | **2024-2030 Approach** |
| **Reduce** | Reduce emissions<sup>(1)</sup> with methane a priority, by<br>● Reducing flaring, venting and fugitive emissions<br>● Driving operational and energy efficiencies<br>● Electrifying operations if economical where grids are low-intensity<br>● Assessing new technologies as they become feasible<br>| 35-40% by 2040 | Achieve our emission-related targets compared to our baseline of 2019:<br>● 2025: Scope 1 emissions intensity reduction by 15-20%<br>● 2030: Scope 1+2 emissions intensity reduction by 25-30%<br>|
| **Calibrate** | Calibrate our portfolio by considering emission intensity impact in acquisition and divestment decisions, including planning for field end-of-life | 10-20% by 2040 | Use acquisitions and divestments to impact achieving our targets, not our 2019 baseline. If we divest higher emitting assets or acquire lower emitting assets, this will reduce our intensity. If we divest lower emitting assets or acquire higher emitting assets, this will increase our intensity, and we will need to consider projected costs of emissions reductions in our financial decisions. |
| **Adapt** | Adapt our portfolio to new energy, considering carbon capture and storage, renewable energy associated with our core operations such as biogas, hydrogen and geothermal production, and other new technologies, often via partnerships | 35-45% by 2050 | Evaluate early-stage alternative projects through partnerships, including:<br>● Four existing geothermal energy from produced water projects in France<br>● Biogas production at our Harlingen Treatment Centre site in Netherlands<br>● Evaluating hydrogen production potential in France and Ireland, with potential for associated carbon capture and storage in France<br>|
| **Offset**  | Offset as a solution for the emissions that cannot be eliminated | 10-15% by 2050 | Consider in 2030-2050, when carbon markets are less volatile |

**Sustainability and Climate-Related Risk Management**

**Process for Identifying, Assessing and Managing Sustainability- and Climate-related Risks, and Integration into the Company's Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) System**

Sustainability and climate-related risks and opportunities are integrated into multi-disciplinary Company-wide risk identification, assessment, and management processes as part of our ERM system. This is based on the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) framework, covering Operational, Market & Financial, Credit, Organizational, Political, Regulatory Compliance, Strategic and Reputational, and Sustainability categories. Risk management follows a Top-Down, Bottom-Up approach: the Board and its committees set clear terms of reference, including oversight for specific allocations of risk type. Our Executive Committee reviews and manages the ERM process by implementing associated policies and procedures; the Vice President International and HSE and the Vice President North America have operational risk management responsibility, while the Chief Financial Officer is responsible for overseeing risk management performance. Bottom-Up is how staff implement, maintain and improve risk management processes, applying the hazard-risk-mitigation process in every part of our business.

Key staff from various departments identify risks using diverse inputs, including operational and facility assessments, technical and research reports, external stakeholder organizations, government policy and regulation changes, industry initiatives, communities and landowners, and non-governmental entities. They are recorded using our Corporate Risk Register, where risks are prioritized by severity, likelihood, speed of onset, and vulnerability considering human, environment, financial, social license and cybersecurity impacts. In addition, risks such as commodity pricing, production and carbon taxes are stress-tested to identify the impact of changes over time. Every risk case includes whether climate-related risk is a contributing factor.

Risk assessments are reviewed annually by the responsible teams and escalated to the Executive Committee and the Board for evaluation including interdependencies and alignment with risk tolerance. The approach focuses on reducing risks to as low as reasonably practicable, and/or accepting or controlling risks (e.g., insurance). Adaption measures are used when direct mitigation is not feasible, such as changing work hours to avoid extreme mid-day heat or implementing flood controls.

To support climate risk management, we use our internally developed Emissions Long-Range Planning Tool, which forecasts emissions, carbon taxes and the impact of emission reduction projects, aiding decisions on production, capital allocation, budgeting, and strategic transactions.

**Sustainability and Climate-Related Metrics and Targets**

**Metrics Used to Assess Sustainability- and Climate-Related Risks and Opportunities**

Our sustainability reporting describes significant economic, environmental, social and governance measures, which are reported with reference to TCFD, SASB and GRI. These include but are not limited to:

● Climate: energy consumption and intensity; investment in and generation of renewable energy; greenhouse gas emission and intensity, including flaring and venting, and avoided emissions; and water withdrawal, including from areas of high baseline water stress, and discharge.

● Environment: Waste generation and management; Asset integrity and spills; and Environmental investment

● Social: Health and Safety; People; and Community investment

● Governance: Ethics

These metrics contribute to the 10% sustainability contribution to the Corporate Performance Scorecard for our Long-term Incentive Plan via ESG rating scores, along with emission intensity reduction and ARO liability reduction; as of 2025, the rating agency scores have been eliminated, relying instead on progress on emissions intensity and ARO liability.

We also track carbon pricing, identifying actual and likely pricing scenarios based on current and projected government policies.

**Scope 1 and 2 GHG Emissions Disclosure**

We report Scope 1 and 2 emissions, calculated in general accordance with the GHG Protocol and IPCC guidance and externally verified (limited assurance) in accordance with ISO 14064-3; reported intensities are based on operated throughput. We have adopted the definitions of Scope 1 and 2 emissions as developed by the GHG Protocol, an international standard for corporate accounting and reporting emissions from the World Resources Institute and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development:

● Scope 1 refers to direct GHG emissions from sources that are owned or controlled by a company

● Scope 2 refers to indirect GHG emissions from the generation of purchased electricity consumed by a company

Historical, corporate and business unit data can be found in the Energy and Emissions Performance Metric document available at www.vermilionenergy.com/our-sustainability. A summary is included below. Note that 2025 data will be available in Q2 2026.

**Related Targets and Performance**

Vermilion has one active emission intensity reduction target:

● In 2021, we set a target to reduce Scope 1 emissions intensity by 15 to 20% by 2025, using a baseline year of 2019.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Retired: approximately 16% reduction achieved at end 2024; given the changes to our operational structure in 2025, we are focusing on evaluating the emission profile of our new assets and looking ahead to 2030

● In 2024, we set a target to reduce Scope 1+2 emissions intensity by 25 to 30% by 2030, using a baseline year of 2019.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o On track: approximately 27% reduction achieved at end 2024

Our targets were developed, and Board-approved, following our climate scenario analysis and extensive internal assessment. To set targets, we assessed opportunities for economic emission reduction based on cost/tonne CO2e, and the approach from peers and majors. Overall, we are focusing on business units with higher emissions intensities, prioritizing capital efficiency: process changes, venting reductions, instrumentation upgrades from gas to air, converting pneumatic devices from high- to low-bleed, power efficiency options, infrastructure consolidation, solar-powered chemical injection pumps, micro-turbine installation, along with improved metering and field measurements. Additional decreases have been achieved through improved measurement and emission calculation methodologies, and the purchase of renewable energy certificates for electricity use in Netherlands, Germany and Ireland.

Corporate Governance

We are committed to a high standard of corporate governance practices, a dedication that begins at the Board level and extends throughout the Company. We believe good corporate governance is in the best interest of our shareholders, and that successful companies are those that deliver growth and a competitive return along with a commitment to the environment, to the communities where they operate, and to their employees.

We comply with the objectives and guidelines relating to corporate governance adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators and the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX"). In addition, the Board monitors and considers the implementation of corporate governance standards proposed by various regulatory and non-regulatory authorities in Canada. A discussion of corporate governance policies is included each year in our proxy materials for our annual general meeting of shareholders, copies of which are available on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca).

Vermilion Energy Inc. ■ Page 35 ■ 2025 Management's Discussion and Analysis

As a Canadian reporting issuer with securities listed on the TSX and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), Vermilion is required to comply with all applicable Canadian requirements adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators and the TSX, and applicable rules for foreign private issuers adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that give effect to the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Our corporate governance practices also incorporate many "best practices" derived from those required to be followed by US domestic companies under the NYSE listing standards. We are required by Section 303A.11 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual to identify any significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those required to be followed by US domestic companies under NYSE listing standards. We believe that there are no such significant differences in our corporate governance practices, except as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● *Shareholder Approval of Equity Compensation Plans.* Section 303A.8 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual requires shareholder approval of all "equity compensation plans" and material revisions to those plans. The definition of "equity compensation plans" covers plans that provide for the delivery of newly issued securities, and also plans which rely on securities reacquired on the market by the issuing company for the purpose of redistribution to employees and directors. The TSX rules provide that equity compensation plans and material amendments thereto require shareholder approval only if they involve newly issued securities and the amendments are not otherwise addressed in the plan's amendment procedures. In addition, the TSX rules require that every three years after institution, all unallocated options, rights or other entitlements under equity compensation plans which do not have a fixed maximum aggregate of securities issuable must be approved by shareholders. Vermilion follows the TSX rules with respect to equity compensation plan shareholder approval requirements.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our officers have established and maintained disclosure controls and procedures and evaluated the effectiveness of these controls in conjunction with our filings. As of December 31, 2025, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded and certified that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of Vermilion have assessed the effectiveness of Vermilion's internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and as defined in Canada by National Instrument 52-109, *Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings* ("NI 52 - 109"). The assessment was based on the framework in *Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of Vermilion have concluded that Vermilion's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025. The effectiveness of Vermilion's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 has been audited by Deloitte LLP, as reflected in their report included in the 2025 audited annual financial statements filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. No changes were made to Vermilion's internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal controls over financial reporting.

Vermilion has limited the scope of design controls and procedures ("DC&P") and internal controls over financial reporting to exclude controls, policies

and procedures of Westbrick Energy Ltd., which was acquired on February 26, 2025. The scope limitation is in accordance with section 3.3(1)(b) of NI 52-109, which allows an issuer to limit the design of DC&P and ICFR to exclude controls, policies, and procedures of a business that the issuer acquired not more than 365 days before the end of the fiscal period.

The table below presents the summary financial information of Westbrick Energy Ltd. included in Vermilion's financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025:

Non-GAAP and Other Specified Financial Measures

This MD&A includes references to certain financial measures which do not have standardized meanings and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These financial measures include fund flows from operations, a total of segments measure of profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 8 "Operating Segments" (please see Segmented Information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements) and net debt, a capital management measure in accordance with IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements" (please see Capital Disclosures in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

In addition, this MD&A includes financial measures which are not specified, defined, or determined under IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore considered non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These non-GAAP financial measures include:

**Total of Segments Measure**

**Fund flows from operations (FFO):** Most directly comparable to net loss, FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and total of segments measure comprised of sales less royalties, transportation, operating, G&A, corporate income tax, PRRT, interest expense, equity based compensation settled in cash, realized gain (loss) on derivatives, realized foreign exchange gain (loss), and realized other income (expense). The measure is used by management to assess the contribution of each business unit to Vermilion's ability to generate income necessary to pay dividends, repay debt, fund asset retirement obligations and make capital investments. Reconciliation to the most directly comparable primary financial statement measures can be found below. Fund flows from continuing operations and fund flows from discontinued operations are calculated in the same manner as FFO and are most directly comparable to net loss from continuing operations and net loss discontinued operations, respectively.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Non-GAAP Ratios**

**Fund flows from operations per basic and diluted share:** FFO per share and diluted share are non-GAAP ratios. Management assesses fund flows from operations on a per share basis as we believe this provides a measure of our operating performance after taking into account the issuance and potential future issuance of Vermilion common shares. Fund flows from operations per basic share is calculated by dividing fund flows from operations (total of segments measure) by the basic weighted average shares outstanding as defined under IFRS Accounting Standards. Fund flows from operations per diluted share is calculated by dividing fund flows from operations by the sum of basic weighted average shares outstanding and incremental shares issuable under the equity based compensation plans as determined using the treasury stock method. Fund flows from continuing operations per basic and diluted share and fund flows from discontinued operations per basic and diluted share are calculated in the same manner as FFO per basic and diluted share.

**Fund flows from operations per boe:** Management uses fund flows from operations per boe to assess the profitability of our business units and Vermilion as a whole. Fund flows from operations per boe is calculated by dividing fund flows from operations (total of segments measure) by boe production. Fund flows from continuing operations per boe and fund flows from discontinued operations per boe are calculated in the same manner as FFO per boe.

**Free cash flow (FCF):** Most directly comparable to cash flows from operating activities, FCF is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as fund flows from operations less drilling and development costs and exploration and evaluation costs. FCF is used by management to determine the funding available for investing and financing activities including payment of dividends, repayment of long-term debt, reallocation into existing business units and deployment into new ventures. Reconciliation to the primary financial statement measures can be found in the following table.

**Capital expenditures:** Most directly comparable to cash flows used in investing activities, capital expenditures is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as the sum of drilling and development costs and exploration and evaluation costs as derived from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We consider capital expenditures to be a useful measure of our investment in our existing asset base. Capital expenditures are also referred to as E&D capital. Reconciliation to the primary financial statement measures can be found below.

**Payout and payout % of FFO:** Payout and payout % of FFO are, respectively, a non-GAAP financial measure and non-GAAP ratio. Payout is most directly comparable to dividends declared. Payout is comprised of dividends declared plus drilling and development costs, exploration and evaluation costs, and asset retirement obligations settled, and payout % of FFO is calculated as payout divided by FFO. The measure is used by management to assess the amount of cash distributed back to shareholders and reinvested in the business for maintaining production and organic growth. Payout as a percentage of FFO is also referred to as the payout ratio or sustainability ratio. The reconciliation of the measure to the primary financial statement measure can be found below.

**Return on capital employed (ROCE):** A non-GAAP ratio, ROCE is a measure that management uses to analyze our profitability and the efficiency of our capital allocation process; the comparable primary financial statement measure is earnings before income taxes. ROCE is calculated by dividing net loss before interest and taxes ("EBIT") by average capital employed over the preceding twelve months. Capital employed is calculated as total assets less current liabilities while average capital employed is calculated using the balance sheets at the beginning and end of the twelve-month period.

**Operating netback:** Operating netback is non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated as sales less royalties, operating expense, transportation costs, PRRT, and realized hedging gains and losses, and when presented on a per unit basis, is a non-GAAP ratio. Operating netback is most directly comparable to net loss. Management assesses operating netback as a measure of the profitability and efficiency of our field operations.

**Net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations:** Management uses net debt (a capital management measure, as defined below) to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations to assess the Company's ability to repay debt. Net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations is a non-GAAP ratio and is calculated as net debt (capital management measure) divided by fund flows from operations (total of segments measure) from the preceding four quarters.

**Capital Management Measure**

**Net debt:** Net debt is a capital management measure in accordance with IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements" that is most directly comparable to long-term debt. Net debt is comprised of long-term debt (excluding unrealized foreign exchange on swapped USD borrowings) plus adjusted working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities, excluding current derivatives, current asset retirement obligations and current lease liabilities), and represents Vermilion's net financing obligations after adjusting for the timing of working capital fluctuations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Adjusted working capital is defined as current assets (excluding current derivatives), less current liabilities (excluding current derivatives, current asset retirement obligations and current lease liabilities).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Vermilion may enter into cross currency interest rate swaps to hedge the foreign exchange movements on USD borrowings on our revolving credit facility. Unrealized FX on swapped USD borrowings relates to the unrealized gains and losses on our cross currency interest swaps. At December 31, 2025, there was $196.7 million of USD borrowings on our revolving credit facility. (December 31, 2024 - $nil).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Subsequent to February 26, 2025, net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations is calculated inclusive of Westbrick Energy's pre-acquisition four quarter trailing fund flows from operations, as if the acquisition of Westbrick Energy occurred at the beginning of the four quarter trailing period, and exclusive of the four quarter trailing fund flows from discontinued operations to reflect the Company's ability to repay debt on a pro forma basis.

**Exhibit 99.3**

Management's Report to Shareholders

**Management's Responsibility for Financial Statements**

------

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Vermilion Energy Inc. are the responsibility of management and have been approved by the Board of Directors of Vermilion Energy Inc. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies detailed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements and are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Where necessary, management has made informed judgments and estimates of transactions that were not yet completed at the balance sheet date. Financial information throughout the Annual Report is consistent with the consolidated financial statements.

Management ensures the integrity of the consolidated financial statements by maintaining high-quality systems of internal control. Procedures and policies are designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and transactions are properly recorded, and that the financial records are reliable for preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Deloitte LLP, Vermilion's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, have conducted an audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and have provided their report.

The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibility for financial reporting and internal control. The Board of Directors carries out this responsibility principally through the Audit Committee, which is appointed by the Board of Directors and is comprised entirely of independent Directors. The Committee meets periodically with management and Deloitte LLP to satisfy itself that each party is properly discharging its responsibilities and to review the consolidated financial statements, Management's Discussion and Analysis and the Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm before they are presented to the Board of Directors.

**Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

------

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting. Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principle financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the system of internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in *"Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)"* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management has assessed the effectiveness of Vermilion's internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and as defined in Canada by National Instrument 52-109 *Certification of Disclosure in Issuers' Annual and Interim Filings* ("NI 52 – 109"). Management concluded that Vermilion's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025. Vermilion has limited the scope of design controls and procedures ("DC&P") and internal controls over financial reporting to exclude controls, policies and procedures of Westbrick Energy Ltd., which was acquired on February 29, 2025. The scope limitation is in accordance with section 3.3(1)(b) of NI 52-109, which allows an issuer to limit the design of DC&P and ICFR to exclude controls, policies, and procedures of a business that the issuer acquired not more than 365 days before the end of the fiscal period. Total assets and revenues excluded from management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting represents 18% and 5%, respectively, of the related Consolidated Financial Statement amounts as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements and even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the financial statement preparation and presentation.

The effectiveness of Vermilion's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 has been audited by Deloitte LLP, the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, who also audited the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Vermilion Energy Inc.

**Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting** 

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Vermilion Energy Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, of the Company and our report dated March 4, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

As described in Management's Report to Shareholders, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Westbrick Energy Ltd., which was acquired on February 26, 2025, and whose financial statements constitute a portion to the entity's consolidated financial statements of the entity whose internal controls have not been evaluated on 18% of total assets and 5% of total revenues of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Westbrick Energy Ltd.

**Basis for Opinion** 

The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report to Shareholders. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting** 

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matters** 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

**Valuation of Capital Assets Acquired from Westbrick Energy Ltd. – Refer to Notes 2 and 5 to the financial statements**

*Critical Audit Matter Description*

The Company acquired Westbrick Energy Ltd. ("Westbrick") consisting of producing oil and gas properties and exploration and evaluation properties. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method whereby the acquired assets, including oil and gas properties and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. Management used a discounted future cash flow model to determine the fair value of the oil and gas properties acquired, which required management to determine the future net cash flows of the underlying proved and probable oil and gas reserves. The Company engaged an independent reserve evaluator to estimate these reserves using estimates, assumptions, and engineering data. The development of the reserves and their future net cash flows required management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to future commodity prices, reserves, discount rate, future operating and development costs.

While there are several estimates and assumptions that are required to determine the fair value of the oil and gas properties, those with the highest degree of subjectivity are future commodity prices, reserves, discount rate and future operating and development costs. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of fair value specialists.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 3 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

*How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit*

Our audit procedures related to future commodity prices, reserves, discount rate and future operating and development costs used to determine the fair value of the oil and gas properties acquired included the following, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the effectiveness of the relevant controls, including those over the determination of the future commodity prices, reserves, discount rate, and future operating and development costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• With the assistance of fair value specialists:

º Evaluated the future commodity prices by independently developing a reasonable range of forecasts based on reputable third-party forecasts and market data and comparing those to the future prices selected by management;

º Evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate by testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount rate and developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to discount rate determined by management.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the Company's independent reserve evaluator by examining reports and assessing their scope of work and findings and assessing the competence, capability and objectivity by evaluating their relevant professional qualifications and experience.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the reasonableness of reserves by testing the source financial information underlying the reserves and comparing the reserve volumes to actual production volumes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the reasonableness of future operating and development costs by testing the source financial information underlying the estimate, comparing future operating and development costs to actual results, and evaluating whether they are consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

**Capital Assets and Impairment Expense – Refer to Notes 2 and 8 to the financial statements**

*Critical Audit Matter Description* 

The Company's capital assets include oil and gas properties. Oil and gas properties are depleted using the unit-of-production method ("depletion") over their proved plus probable reserves. The Company engages an independent reserve evaluator to estimate reserves using estimates, assumptions and engineering data. The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indicator of impairment or impairment reversal. If an indicator exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit ("CGU"), which is the higher of fair value less costs to sell or value-in-use.

The determination of (1) the Company's proved plus probable reserves used to determine depletion and (2) the recoverable amount of a CGU requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to future commodity prices, reserves, discount rates, and future operating and development costs. The Company identified indicators of impairment related to the Australia, France and Ireland CGUs ("identified CGUs") and recorded an impairment.

Given the significant judgments made by management related to future commodity prices, reserves, discount rates, and future operating and development costs used to determine depletion of all oil and gas properties and the recoverable amount of the identified CGUs, these estimates and assumptions are subject to a high degree of estimation uncertainty. Auditing these estimates and assumptions required auditor judgment in applying audit procedures and in evaluating the results of those procedures. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of fair value specialists.

*How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit*

Our audit procedures related to future commodity prices, reserves, discount rates, and future operating and development costs used to determine the depletion of all oil and gas properties and the recoverable amount of the identified CGUs included the following, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the effectiveness of the relevant controls, including those over the determination of the future commodity prices, reserves, discount rates, and future operating and development costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• With the assistance of fair value specialists:

º Evaluated the future commodity prices by independently developing a reasonable range of forecasts based on reputable third-party forecasts and market data and comparing those to the future prices selected by management;

º Evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rates by testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount rates and developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to discount rates determined by management.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the Company's independent reserve evaluator by examining reports and assessing their scope of work and findings and assessing the competence, capability and objectivity by evaluating their relevant professional qualifications and experience.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the reasonableness of reserves by testing the source financial information underlying the reserves and comparing the reserve volumes to historical production volumes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the reasonableness of future operating and development costs by testing the source financial information underlying the estimate, comparing future operating and development costs to historical results, and evaluating whether they are consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

**Valuation of Deferred Tax Assets - Refer to Notes 2 and 13 to the financial statements**

*Critical Audit Matter Description* 

The Company recognizes deferred income taxes for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities at substantively enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax assets are reduced to the amounts expected to be realized based on forecasts of future taxable income, specifically forecasts of future revenue (commodity price forecasts and forecasted reserves). The Company recorded deferred income tax assets for Canada and Ireland primarily arising from past taxable losses in these jurisdictions.

To determine whether it is probable that the deferred income tax assets in these jurisdictions will be realized, management makes assumptions related to the forecasts of future taxable income, specifically forecasts of future revenue (commodity price forecasts and forecasted reserves). Auditing the probability of the deferred income tax assets being realized and management's commodity price forecasts and forecasted reserves involved a high degree of auditor judgment as the estimations made by management contain significant measurement uncertainty. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of income tax specialists.

*How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit*

Our audit procedures related to assessing the probability of the deferred income tax assets being realized and management's forecasts of taxable income, specifically forecasts of future revenue (commodity price forecasts and forecasted reserves) to evaluate the deferred income tax assets in Canada and Ireland included the following, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the effectiveness of relevant controls, including those over the determination of the forecasts of future revenue, specifically commodity price forecasts and forecasted reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated management's ability to accurately forecast future taxable income by comparing management's assumptions to historical data and available market trends.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluated the reasonableness of management's forecasts of future revenue by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Comparing the forecasts prepared by management's expert to third party forecasts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Evaluating whether management's estimates of commodity price forecasts and estimated reserves were consistent with the requirements of IAS 12 – Income taxes relating to the probability of forecasted future revenue and the length of the forecast period.

#### Description of equity reserves
*Shareholders' capital*

Represents the recognized amount for common shares issued (net of equity issuance costs and deferred taxes) less the weighted-average carrying value of shares repurchased. The price paid to repurchase common shares is compared to the carrying value of the shares and the difference is recorded against deficit.

*Contributed surplus*

Represents the recognized value of unvested equity based awards that will be settled in shares. Once vested, the value of the awards are transferred to shareholders' capital.

*Accumulated other comprehensive income*

Represents currency translation adjustments, hedge accounting reserve and fair value adjustments on investments.

Currency translation adjustments result from translating the balance sheets of subsidiaries with a foreign functional currency to Canadian dollars at period-end rates. These amounts may be reclassified to net loss if there is a disposal or partial disposal of a subsidiary.

The hedge accounting reserve represents the effective portion of the change in fair value related to cash flow and net investment hedges recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax and reclassified to the consolidated statement of net loss in the same period in which the transaction associated with the hedged item occurs.

Fair value adjustment on investment in securities, net of tax, are a result of changes in the fair value of investments that have been elected to be subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

*Deficit*

Represents the cumulative net loss less distributed earnings and surplus of the price paid to repurchase common shares of Vermilion Energy Inc. over the weighted-average carrying value of the shares repurchased.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

tabular amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** **Basis of presentation** 

Vermilion Energy Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company" or "Vermilion") are engaged in the business of petroleum and natural gas exploration, development, acquisition, and production.

Vermilion was incorporated in Canada and the Company's registered office and principal place of business is located at 3500, 520, 3rd Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

The operating results attributable to the Company's Saskatchewan and United States operations have been classified and presented as discontinued operations, with all other operating results presented as continuing operations. The prior period results have been presented to conform with current period presentation. See Note 6 – "Discontinued Operations" for additional information.

These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by Vermilion's Board of Directors on March 4, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** **Material accounting policies** 

*Accounting framework*

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards").

*Principles of consolidation*

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vermilion Energy Inc. and its subsidiaries. Vermilion's subsidiaries include entities in each of the jurisdictions that Vermilion operates as described in Note 4 (Segmented information) including: Canada, France, Netherlands, Germany, Ireland, Australia, the United States, and Central and Eastern Europe (Hungary, Slovakia, and Croatia). Vermilion Energy Inc. directly or indirectly through holding companies owns all of the voting securities of each material subsidiary. Transactions between Vermilion Energy Inc. and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

Vermilion accounts for joint operations by recognizing the Company's share of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses.

*Investment in associate*

Associates are entities for which the company has significant influence, but not control or joint control over the financial and operational decisions. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter for the change in the company's share of the associate's net income and comprehensive income less distributions received until the date that significant influence ceases, within other expense on the statement of net earnings. When the associate's financial information has not yet been made publicly available, management estimates the associate's financial information based on most recent and publicly available information, adjusted for market factors, including but not limited to market pricing.

Investments are tested for impairment when objective evidence of impairment is identified. Investments are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at each reporting date. If a potential impairment exists, the investment's carrying value is compared to its recoverable amount. An investment's recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value-in-use. If the carrying amount of an investment exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the investment to its recoverable amount.

If an impairment loss has been recognized in a prior period, an assessment is performed at each reporting date to determine if there are indicators that the circumstances which led to the impairment loss have reversed. If the change in circumstances results in the recoverable amount being higher than the carrying value after the impairment loss, then the impairment loss is reversed.

*Exploration and evaluation assets*

Vermilion classifies costs as exploration and evaluation ("E&E") assets when they relate to exploring and evaluating an area for which the Company has the license or right to explore and extract resources. E&E costs may include: geological and geophysical costs; land and license acquisition costs; and costs for the drilling, completion, and testing of exploration wells.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 11 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

E&E costs are reclassified to capital assets if the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the area can be determined. E&E assets are assessed for impairment prior to any reclassification. The technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the reserves is considered to be determinable when proved and probable reserves are identified.

Costs incurred prior to the acquisition of the legal rights to explore an area are expensed as incurred. If reserves are not found within the license area or the area is abandoned, the related E&E costs are depreciated over a period not greater than five years. If an exploration license expires prior to the commencement of exploration activities, the cost of the exploration license is written off through depreciation in the year of expiration.

*Capital assets*

Vermilion recognizes capital assets at cost less accumulated depletion, depreciation, and impairment losses. Costs include directly attributable costs incurred for the drilling, completion, and tie-in of wells and the construction of production and processing facilities.

When components of capital assets are replaced, disposed of, or no longer in use, they are derecognized. Gains and losses on disposal of capital assets are determined by comparing the proceeds of disposal compared to the carrying amount.

*Depletion and depreciation*

Capital assets are grouped into depletion units, which are groups of assets within a specific production area that have similar economic lives. Depletion units represent the lowest level of disaggregation for which costs are accumulated for the purposes of calculating depletion and depreciation.

The net carrying value of each depletion unit is depleted using the unit of production method by reference to the ratio of production in the period to the total proved and probable reserves, taking into account the future development costs necessary to bring the applicable reserves into production. For the purposes of the depletion calculations, oil and gas reserves are converted to a common unit of measure on the basis of their relative energy content based on a conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of oil equivalent.

*Impairment of capital assets and exploration and evaluation assets*

Depletion units are aggregated into cash generating units ("CGUs") for impairment testing. CGUs are the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of cash inflows of other groups of assets. CGUs are reviewed for indicators of potential impairment at each reporting date.

E&E assets are tested for impairment when reclassified to capital assets or when indicators of potential impairment are identified. E&E assets are reviewed for indicators of potential impairment at each reporting date. If indicators of potential impairment are identified, E&E assets are tested for impairment as part of the CGU attributable to the jurisdiction in which the exploration area resides.

If an indicator of potential impairment exists, the CGU's carrying value is compared to its recoverable amount. A CGU's recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value-in-use. If the carrying amount of a CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the CGU to its recoverable amount.

If an impairment loss has been recognized in a prior period, an assessment is performed at each reporting date to determine if there are indicators that the circumstances which led to the impairment loss have reversed. If the change in circumstances results in the recoverable amount being higher than the carrying value after the impairment loss, then the impairment loss (net of depletion that would otherwise have been recorded) is reversed.

*Lease obligations and right-of-use assets*

A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. At the lease commencement date, a lease obligation is recognized at the present value of future lease payments, typically using the applicable incremental borrowing rate. A corresponding right-of-use asset is recognized at the amount of the lease obligation, adjusted for lease incentives received and initial direct costs. Vermilion does not recognize leases for short-term leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, or leases for low-value assets.

Payments are applied against the lease obligation and interest expense is recognized on the lease obligations using the effective interest rate method. Depreciation is recognized on the right-of-use asset over the lease term.

*Cash and cash equivalents*

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on deposit with financial institutions and guaranteed investment certificates.

*Crude oil inventory*

Crude oil inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of crude oil inventory produced includes related operating expense, royalties, and depletion determined on a weighted-average basis.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 12 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

*Assets held for sale and discontinued operations*

The Company classifies capital assets and exploration and evaluation assets as held for sale if it is highly probable their carrying amounts will be recovered through a disposition rather than through future operating cash flows. This condition is met when the sale is highly probable, the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and the sale is expected to be completed within one year from the date of classification. Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of the carrying amount and recoverable amount, with impairments or impairment reversals recognized in the consolidated statements of net earnings and comprehensive income.

Assets held for sale are classified as current assets and are not subject to depletion and depreciation. Decommissioning, lease and derivative liabilities associated with assets held for sale are classified as current liabilities.

Upon classification, the Company assesses whether the assets held for sale represent a major component of the business. If this criteria is met, the operating results attributable to the assets held for sale are presented as discontinued operations, with prior periods reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

*Asset retirement obligations*

Vermilion recognizes a provision for asset retirement obligations when an event occurs giving rise to an obligation of uncertain timing or amount. Asset retirement obligations are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet as a liability with a corresponding increase to E&E or capital assets. The portion expected to be settled within 12 months is classified as current, with the remaining balance classified as long-term.

Asset retirement obligations reflect the present value of estimated future settlement costs. The discount rate used to calculate the present value is specific to the jurisdiction the obligation relates to and is reflective of current market assessment of the time value of money and risks specific to the liabilities that have not been reflected in the cash flow estimates.

Asset retirement obligations are remeasured at each reporting period to reflect changes in market rates and estimated future settlement costs. Asset retirement obligations are increased each reporting period to reflect the passage of time with a corresponding charge to accretion expense.

*Revenue recognition*

Revenue associated with the sale of crude oil and condensate, natural gas, and natural gas liquids is measured based on the consideration specified in contracts with customers.

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when or as Vermilion satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of crude oil and condensate, natural gas, or natural gas liquids to a customer at contractually specified transfer points. This transfer coincides with title passing to the customer and the customer taking physical possession of the commodity. Vermilion principally satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time and the amounts of revenue recognized relating to performance obligations satisfied over time are not significant.

Vermilion invoices customers for delivered products monthly and payment occurs shortly thereafter. Vermilion does not have any contracts where the period between the transfer of control of the commodity to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a result, Vermilion does not adjust its revenue transactions to reflect significant financing components.

*Financial instruments*

On initial recognition, financial instruments are measured at fair value. Measurement in subsequent periods depends on the classification of the financial instrument as described below:

● Fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"): Financial instruments under this classification include cash and cash equivalents and derivative assets and liabilities. Transaction costs under this classification are expensed as incurred.

● Fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"): Financial instruments under this classification include derivative assets, investment in securities, and liabilities where hedge accounting was applied. Transaction costs under this classification are expensed as incurred.

● Amortized cost: Financial instruments under this classification include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, dividends payable, lease obligations, and long-term debt. Transaction costs under this classification are included in the measurement of the financial instrument.

Accounts receivable are measured net of a loss allowance equal to the lifetime expected credit loss.

*Equity based compensation*

Equity based compensation expense results from equity-settled awards issued under Vermilion's long-term share-based compensation plans as well as the grant date fair value of Vermilion common shares issued under the Company's bonus and employee share savings plans.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 13 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

Vermilion's long-term share-based compensation plans consist of the Long-term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") and the Deferred Share Unit Plan ("DSU"). Equity-settled awards issued under the LTIP vest over a period of one to three years and awards issued under the DSU vest immediately upon granting.

Equity based compensation expense for equity-settled plans is recognized over the vesting period with a corresponding adjustment to contributed surplus. The expense recognized is based on the grant date fair value of the awards, an estimate of the performance factor that will be achieved (if applicable), and an estimate of forfeiture rates based on historical vesting data. Dividends notionally accrue to the LTIP and are excluded in the determination of grant date fair values. When the awards are converted to Vermilion common shares, the amount recognized in contributed surplus is reclassified to shareholders' capital.

The grant date fair value of awards or Vermilion common shares issued is determined as the closing price of Vermilion's common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the grant date.

*Per share amounts*

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the diluted weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted-average number of shares outstanding is the sum of the basic weighted-average number of shares outstanding and (to the extent inclusion reduces diluted net loss per share) the number of shares issuable for equity-settled awards determined using the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes that the unrecognized equity based compensation expense are deemed proceeds used to repurchase Vermilion common shares at the average market price during the period.

*Foreign currency translation*

Vermilion Energy Inc.'s functional and presentation currency is the Canadian dollar. Vermilion has subsidiaries that transact and operate in countries other than Canada and have functional currencies other than the Canadian dollar.

Foreign currency translation includes the translation of foreign currency transactions and the translation of foreign operations.

Foreign currency transaction translation occurs when translating transactions and balances in foreign currencies to the applicable functional currency of Vermilion Energy Inc. and its subsidiaries. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are recorded as foreign exchange gains or losses in the statement of net earnings (loss). Foreign currency transaction translation occurs as follows:

● Income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rates on the date of the transaction.

● Non-monetary assets or liabilities are carried at the prevailing rates on the date of the transaction.

● Monetary items, including intercompany loans that are not deemed to represent net investments in a foreign subsidiary, are translated at the prevailing rates at the balance sheet date.

Foreign operation translation occurs when translating the financial statements of non-Canadian functional currency subsidiaries to the Canadian dollar and when translating intercompany loans that are deemed to represent net investments in a foreign subsidiary. Gains and losses from foreign operation translations are recorded as currency translation adjustments in the statement of comprehensive income. Foreign operation translation occurs as follows:

● Income and expenses are translated at the daily exchange rate.

● Assets and liabilities are translated at the prevailing rates on the balance sheet date.

*Income taxes*

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using the balance sheet method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated effect of any temporary differences between the amounts recognized on Vermilion's consolidated balance sheet and the respective tax basis. This calculation uses enacted or substantively enacted tax rates that are expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred taxes is recognized in the period the related legislation is substantively enacted.

Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be used. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 14 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

*Business combinations*

Acquisitions of corporations or groups of assets are accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method if the acquired assets constitute a business. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination (with the exception of deferred tax assets and liabilities) are measured at their fair values. Deferred tax assets or liabilities arising from the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured in accordance with the policies described in "Income taxes" above.

If applicable, the excess or deficiency of the fair value of net assets acquired compared to consideration paid is recognized as a gain on business combination or as goodwill on the consolidated balance sheet. Acquisition-related costs incurred to effect a business combination are expensed in the period incurred.

As part of the assessment to determine if the acquisition constitutes a business, Vermilion may elect to apply the concentration test on a transaction by transaction basis. The test is met if substantially all of the fair value related to the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset (or group of similar assets) resulting in the acquisition not being deemed a business and recorded as an asset acquisition.

*Segmented information*

Vermilion has a decentralized business unit structure designed to manage assets in each country the Company operates. Each of Vermilion's operating segments derives its revenues solely from the production and sale of petroleum and natural gas.

Vermilion's chief operating decision maker regularly reviews fund flows from operations generated by each of Vermilion's operating segments. Fund flows from operations is a measure of profit or loss that provides the chief operating decision maker with the ability to assess the profitability of each operating segment and, correspondingly, the ability of each operating segment to fund its share of dividends, asset retirement obligations, and capital investments.

*Management judgments and estimation uncertainty*

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Key areas where management has made judgments, estimates, and assumptions are described below.

The determination of whether indicators of impairment or impairment reversals:

● Determining whether there are indicators of impairment or impairment reversals are based on management's assessments of the changes in estimates for future commodity prices, costs, discount rates, or reserves. Changes in these estimates and assumptions can directly impact the calculated fair value of capital assets and therefore could be indicators of impairment or impairment reversals. In addition, change in the Vermilion's market capitalization relative to its book value could be an indicator of impairment.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 15 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

The measurement of the fair value of capital assets acquired in a business combination and the determination of the recoverable amount of cash generating units ("CGU"):

● Calculating the fair value of capital assets acquired in a business combination and the recoverable amount of CGUs (in the assessment of impairments or reversals of previous impairments if indicators of impairment or impairment reversal are identified) are based on estimated future commodity prices, discount rates and estimated reserves. Reserve estimates are based on: engineering data, estimated future commodity prices, expected future rates of production, and assumptions regarding the timing and amount of future expenditures. Changes in these estimates and assumptions can directly impact the calculated fair value of capital assets acquired (and thus the resulting goodwill or gain on business combination) and the recoverable amount of a CGU (and thus the resulting impairment loss or recovery).

● In addition, the recoverable amount of a CGU is impacted by the composition of CGUs, which are subject to management's judgment of the lowest level at which there are identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other groups of assets. The factors used by Vermilion to determine CGUs vary by jurisdiction due to their unique operating and geographic conditions. In general, Vermilion will assess the following factors: geographic proximity of the assets within a group to one another, geographic proximity of the group of assets to other groups of assets, homogeneity of the production from the group of assets and the sharing of infrastructure used to process and/or transport production. Changes in these judgments can directly impact the calculated recoverable amount of a CGU (and thus the resulting impairment loss or recovery).

The measurement of the carrying value of asset retirement obligations on the balance sheet, including the fair value and subsequent carrying value of asset retirement obligations assumed in a business combination:

● Asset retirement obligations are based on judgments regarding regulatory requirements, estimates of future costs, assumptions on the expected timing of expenditures, and estimates of the underlying risk inherent to the obligation. The carrying balance of asset retirement obligations and accretion expense may differ due to changes in: laws and environmental regulations, technological advancements, further discoveries, site conditions, the expected timing of expenditures, and market conditions affecting the discount rate applied. These factors may be influenced by the pace of the global transition to a lower-carbon energy economy.

The recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities:

● Tax interpretations, regulations, and legislation in the various jurisdictions in which Vermilion and its subsidiaries operate are subject to change and interpretation. Changes in laws and interpretations can affect the timing of the reversal of temporary tax differences, the tax rates in effect when such differences reverse and Vermilion's ability to use tax losses and other tax pools in the future. The Company's income tax filings are subject to audit by taxation authorities in numerous jurisdictions and the results of such audits may increase or decrease the tax liability. The determination of tax amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are based on management's assessment of the tax positions, which includes consideration of their technical merits, communications with tax authorities and management's view of the most likely outcome.

● The extent to which deferred tax assets are recognized are based on estimates of future profitability. These estimates are based on estimated future commodity prices and estimates of reserves. Judgments, estimates, and assumptions inherent in reserve estimates are described above.

The measurement of lease obligations and corresponding right-of-use assets:

● The measurement of lease obligations are subject to management's judgments of the applicable incremental borrowing rate and the expected lease term. The carrying balance of the right-of-use assets, lease obligations, and the resulting interest and depletion and depreciation expense, may differ due to changes in the market conditions and expected lease terms. Applicable incremental borrowing rates are based on judgments of the economic environment, term, currency, and the underlying risk inherent to the asset. Lease terms are based on assumptions regarding cancellation and extension terms that allow for operational flexibility based on future market conditions.

3. Changes in accounting pronouncements

*Issuance of IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements*

In April 2024, the IASB issued the new accounting standard, IFRS 18 'Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements'. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 'Presentation of Financial Statements' and provides a defined structure to the statement of net earnings (loss) and comprehensive income and related disclosure requirements. Key changes include a new operating profit subtotal and requires income and expenses to be classified into operating, investing, and financing categories, based on the entity's main business activities. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and is required to be adopted retrospectively. Vermilion is currently reviewing income and expense classifications, management-defined performance measures, and contractual arrangements to assess the impact the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

*Amendments to IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosure* 

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments' and IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures' relating to settling financial liabilities using an electronic payment system and assessing contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets. The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2026, and are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

5. Business combination

*Westbrick Energy Ltd.*

On February 26, 2025, Vermilion purchased 100% of the shares outstanding of Westbrick Energy Ltd. ("Westbrick" or "Westbrick Energy") a private company with assets located adjacent to Vermilion's existing Alberta assets for total consideration of $1.1 billion, including 1,104,357 shares of Vermilion valued at $12.10 per share for an aggregate $13.4 million in fair value share consideration upon closing, with the balance paid in cash. Total transaction costs included in Vermilion's general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 related to the acquisition are approximately $8.3 million ($0.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2024).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Acquired working capital deficit includes $13.4 million of derivative assets acquired.

The results of operations from the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been included in Vermilion's consolidated financial statements beginning February 26, 2025 and have contributed revenues net of royalties of $299.5 million and net earnings of $26.7 million. Had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2025, consolidated petroleum and natural gas revenue net of royalties and net earnings would have increased by $58.9 million and $15.6 million, respectively.

Vermilion acquired contractual obligations and commitments as part of the Westbrick acquisition completed on February 26, 2025. Please refer to Note 21 "Supplemental Information" for a summary of the Company's contractual obligations and commitments as at December 31, 2025.

6. Discontinued operations

------

*Saskatchewan*

On May 23, 2025 Vermilion announced it had entered into an agreement for the sale of the Saskatchewan and Manitoba assets. On July 10, 2025, Vermilion closed the sale for net proceeds of $392.6 million. Following the announcement, the sale was considered to be highly probable and therefore the assets and liabilities associated with the disposal group were reclassified to held for sale and measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell with resulting impairment of $230.9 million. The closing of the sale resulted in the derecognition of the net assets held for sale and $11.0 million of derivative liabilities, and a gain on disposition of $2.5 million, recognized in other expense within net (loss) earnings from discontinued operations. The book value of the net assets disposed was $379.0 million.

*United States*

On June 5, 2025, Vermilion announced it had entered into an agreement for the sale of the United States assets. On July 31, 2025, Vermilion closed the sale for net proceeds of $90.9 million, before an additional US $7.0 million of contingent payments. Following the announcement, the sale was considered to be highly probable and therefore the assets and liabilities associated with the disposal group were reclassified to held for sale and measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell with resulting impairment of $141.5 million. The closing of the sale resulted in derecognition of the net assets held for sale and a loss on disposition of $6.5 million, recognized in other expense within net (loss) earnings from discontinued operations. The book value of the net assets disposed was $97.5 million.

**7. Investments**

------

Investments are comprised of Vermilion's ownership interest in Coelacanth Energy Inc. ("CEI"), an oil and natural gas company, actively engaged in the acquisition, development, exploration, and production of oil and natural gas reserves in northeastern British Columbia, Canada.

In February 2024, Vermilion acquired additional securities, increasing its ownership to approximately 21% of the issued and outstanding common shares of CEI. As such, Vermilion concluded it had acquired significant influence over the entity and should prospectively be accounted for using the equity method of accounting subsequently, recording Vermilion's share of CEI's profit or loss. Prior to acquiring significant influence, this investment was accounted for under IFRS 9 as an investment in securities using the fair value method of accounting, classified as a FVTOCI financial instrument. The transaction was treated as a disposal of the original investment at fair value and an acquisition of an investment in associate, with no resulting gain or loss recognized within other expense in the consolidated statement of net earnings.

In December 2025, Vermilion reduced its ownership to approximately 10.2% of the issued and outstanding common shares of CEI by selling securities. Accordingly, Vermilion concluded it no longer had significant influence over the entity and returned to accounting for the investment under IFRS 9 using the fair value method of accounting, classified as a FVTOCI financial instrument. The disposition resulted in a gain of $11.7 million recognized within other expense in the consolidated statements of net earnings.

*Impairment*

In the fourth quarter of 2025, indicators of impairment were present in our France, Australia and Ireland CGUs due to changes in forecasted pricing. As a result of the indicators of impairment, the Company performed impairment calculations on the identified CGUs and the recoverable amounts were determined using fair value less costs to sell, which considered future after-tax cash flows from proved plus probable reserves and an after-tax discount rate of 15.0% for France, Australia and Ireland. Based on the results of the impairment tests completed, the Company recognized non-cash impairment charges of $572.2 million. Inputs used in the measurement of capital assets are not based on observable market data and fall within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following benchmark price forecasts were used to calculate the recoverable amounts:

---

| | | | | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2026** | **2027** | **2028** | **2029** | **2030** | **2031** | **2032** | **2033** | **2034** | **2035** <sup>(2)</sup> |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> The forecast benchmark prices listed are adjusted for quality differentials, heat content, transportation and marketing costs and other factors specific to the Company's operations when determining recoverable amounts.

<sup>(2)</sup> In 2035 and beyond, commodity price forecasts are inflated at a rate of 2.0% per annum.

The following are the results of tests completed, recoverable amounts, and sensitivity impacts which would increase the impairments taken:

---

| | | | | | |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Asset retirement obligations previously presented as a combined balance have been reclassified into current and long-term portion of asset retirement obligations. The prior period results have been presented to conform with current period presentation.

Vermilion calculated the present value of the obligations using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate, calculated using a credit spread of 4.4% as at December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024 – 2.6%) added to risk-free rates based on long-term, risk-free government bonds. Vermilion's credit spread is determined using the Company's expected cost of borrowing at the end of the reporting period.

The country-specific risk-free rates used as inputs to discount the obligations were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Dec 31, 2025** | **Dec 31, 2024** |
| Canada | **3.9%**  | 3.2% |
| United States <sup>(1)</sup> | **5.0%**  | 4.8% |
| France | **4.5%**  | 3.7% |
| Netherlands | **3.2%**  | 2.7% |
| Germany | **3.4%**  | 2.6% |
| Ireland | **3.2%**  | 2.8% |
| Australia | **4.9%**  | 4.6% |
| Central and Eastern Europe | **4.8%**  | 4.7% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Reflects the risk-free rate at time of disposition.

Vermilion has estimated the asset retirement obligations based on current cost estimates of $2.2 billion (2024 - $2.3 billion). Current cost estimates are inflated to the estimated time of abandonment using inflation rates of between 1.4% and 3.5% (2024 - between 1.5% and 3.6%), resulting in inflated cost estimates of $3.2 billion (2024 - $3.5 billion). These payments are expected to be made over the next 55 years, with the majority of the costs incurred in the first 35 years.

A 0.5% increase/decrease in the discount rate applied to asset retirement obligations would decrease/increase asset retirement obligations by approximately $53.1 million. A one-year increase/decrease in the expected timing of abandonment spend would decrease/increase asset retirement obligations by approximately $57.5 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) In Australia, current taxes include both corporate income tax rates and PRRT. For both 2025 and 2024, corporate income tax rates were applied at a rate of 30% and PRRT was applied at a rate of 40% .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The applicable tax rates for 2025 were: 25.8% in France, 50.0% in the Netherlands, 31.2% in Germany, 25.0% in Ireland, 18.0% in Croatia and 21.0% in the United States (2024: 25.8% in France, 50.0% in the Netherlands, 31.1% in Germany, 25.0% in Ireland, 18.0% in Croatia and 21.0% in the United States).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) On October 6, 2022 the Council of the European Union adopted a regulation that implemented a temporary windfall tax on the profits of oil and gas producers resident in the European Union. This windfall tax was referred to as a temporary solidarity contribution and was calculated on the amount by which the taxable profits for the elected years exceeded the greater of zero and 120% of the average taxable profits for the 2018 to 2021 period. The regulation required Member States to implement the temporary solidarity contribution at a minimum rate of 33% while providing Member States with the option to apply the temporary solidarity contribution to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2022, January 1, 2023, or both. The temporary solidarity contribution does not apply to 2024 or later years and is considered a tax pursuant to IAS 12 "Income Taxes".

At December 31, 2025, Vermilion had $2.4 billion (December 31, 2024 - $2.9 billion) of unused tax losses of which $1.1 billion (December 31, 2024 - $1.3 billion) relates to Vermilion's Canada segment and expire between 2035 and 2046. The majority of the remaining unused tax losses relate to Vermilion's Ireland segment and do not expire.

At December 31, 2025, Vermilion derecognized $172.3 million (December 31, 2024 - derecognized $29.4 million) of deferred income tax assets relating to the Canada, USA, Ireland, France and Australia segments as there is uncertainty as to the Company's ability to fully utilize such losses based on the forecasted commodity prices in effect as at December 31, 2025.

The aggregate amount of temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries for which deferred tax liabilities have not been recognized as at December 31, 2025 is approximately $1.1 billion (December 31, 2024 – approximately $1.3 billion).

In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") issued model rules for a new global minimum tax framework ("Pillar Two"). The objective of Pillar Two is to ensure that large multinational enterprises are subjected to a minimum 15% effective tax rate in each jurisdiction in which they operate.

All of the countries where Vermilion operates have enacted tax legislation to comply with Pillar Two with effect from January 1, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company recorded $6.5 million of income tax expense relating to Pillar Two.

In May 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12, "Income Taxes" ("IAS 12") to address the impacts and additional disclosure requirements related to Pillar Two. Vermilion has applied the mandatory exception required by IAS 12 and accordingly has not accounted for any related deferred income tax assets or liabilities.

Vermilion is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares with no par value.

Dividends declared to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $79.9 million or $0.52 per common share (2024 - $75.3 million or $0.48 per share).

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 28 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

On July 9, 2025, the Toronto Stock Exchange approved the Company's notice of intention to renew its normal course issuer bid ("the NCIB"). The NCIB renewal allows Vermilion to purchase up to 15,259,187 common shares (representing approximately 10% of outstanding common shares) beginning July 12, 2025 and ending July 11, 2026. Common shares purchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.

In 2025, Vermilion purchased and cancelled 3.1 million common shares under the NCIB for total consideration of $35.7 million (2024 - 9.3 million common shares for total consideration of $140.7 million). The surplus between the total consideration and the carrying value of the shares repurchased was recorded as a decrease to deficit.

Subsequent to December 31, 2025, Vermilion purchased and cancelled 0.3 million common shares under the NCIB for total consideration of $4.3 million.

16. Capital disclosures

Vermilion defines capital as net debt (long-term debt (excluding unrealized foreign exchange on swapped USD borrowings) plus adjusted working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities, excluding current derivatives, current asset retirement obligations and current lease liabilities)) and shareholders' capital. In managing capital, Vermilion reviews whether fund flows from operations is sufficient to fund capital expenditures, dividends, and asset retirement obligations.

Vermilion monitors the ratio of net debt to fund flows from operations. As at December 31, 2025, our ratio of net debt to trailing fund flows from operations is 1.4 (December 31, 2024 - 0.8). Vermilion manages the ratio of net debt to fund flows from operations (refer to Note 4 - Segmented information) by monitoring capital expenditures, dividends, and asset retirement obligations with expected fund flows from operations. Vermilion intends for the ratio of net debt to fund flows from operations to trend towards 1.0 over time.

The following table calculates Vermilion's ratio of net debt to fund flows from operations:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Year Ended** | **Year Ended** |
|  | **Dec 31, 2025** | **Dec 31, 2024** |
| Long-term debt | **1243397** | 963456 |
| Adjusted working capital <sup>(1)</sup> | **96091** | 3426 |
| Unrealized FX on swapped USD borrowings <sup>(2)</sup> | **2902** |  |
| **Net debt** | **1342390** | 966882 |
| **Ratio of net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations** <sup>(3)</sup> | **1.4** | 0.8 |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Adjusted working capital is defined as current assets (excluding current derivatives), less current liabilities (excluding current derivatives, current asset retirement obligations and current lease liabilities).

<sup>(2)</sup> Vermilion may enter into cross currency interest rate swaps to hedge the foreign exchange movements on USD borrowings on our revolving credit facility. Unrealized FX on swapped USD borrowings relates to the unrealized gains and losses on our cross currency interest swaps. At December 31, 2025, there was $196.7 million of USD borrowings on our revolving credit facility. (December 31, 2024 - $nil).

<sup>(3)</sup> Subsequent to February 26, 2025, net debt to four quarter trailing fund flows from operations is calculated inclusive of Westbrick Energy's pre-acquisition four quarter trailing fund flows from operations, as if the acquisition of Westbrick Energy occurred at the beginning of the four quarter trailing period, and exclusive of the four quarter trailing fund flows from discontinued operations to reflect the Company's ability to repay debt on a pro forma basis.

17. Equity based compensation

The following table summarizes the number of awards outstanding under the LTIP:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Number of LTIP Awards ('000s)** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Opening balance | **3926** | 4478 |
| Granted | **3061** | 1917 |
| Vested | **(975)** | (2061) |
| Forfeited | **(1115)** | (408) |
| **Closing balance** | **4897** | 3926 |

---

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the awards had a weighted average grant date fair value of $11.30 (2024 - $16.62). Equity based compensation expense for the awards is calculated based on the number of awards outstanding multiplied by the estimated performance factor that will be realized upon vesting (2025 - 1.0; 2024 - 1.0) adjusted by an estimated annual forfeiture rate (2025 – 8.0%; 2024 – 7.2%). Equity based compensation expense of $24.0 million was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2025 (2024 - $27.5 million) relating to the awards.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 29 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

As at December 31, 2025, there were 616,226 DSUs outstanding with a weighted average grant date fair value of $13.87. In 2025, there were 108,335 DSUs granted with a weighted average grant date fair value of $11.03. Equity based compensation expense of $1.2 million was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2025 (2024 - $1.4 million) relating to the DSUs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The investment in securities was classified as a level 1 instrument on the fair value hierarchy and used observable inputs when making fair value adjustments and was recorded until significant influence was acquired, on February 29, 2024. The investment was accounted for under IAS 28 until Vermilion no longer had significant influence, on December 8th, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The carrying value of the above equals fair value except for long-term debt. The fair value of long-term debt was $1,220.2 million (2024 - $969.1 million).

The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and dividends payable are a reasonable approximation of their fair value due to the short maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying value of long-term debt outstanding on the revolving credit facility approximates its fair value due to the use of short-term borrowing instruments at market rates of interest.

Fair value measurements are categorized into a fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

● Level 1 inputs are determined by reference to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Inputs used in fair value measurement of cash and cash equivalents, investment in securities, the revolving credit facility, and the senior unsecured notes are categorized as Level 1.

● Level 2 inputs are determined based on inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. The fair value of Vermilion's derivative assets and liabilities are determined using pricing models that incorporate future price forecasts (supported by prices from observable market transactions) and credit risk adjustments.

● Level 3 inputs are not based on observable market data. Vermilion does not have any financial instruments classified as Level 3.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 30 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

There were no transfers between levels in the hierarchy in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

*Nature and extent of risks associated with financial instruments*

Vermilion is exposed to financial risks from its financial instruments. These financial risks include: market risk (includes commodity price risk, interest rate risk, and currency risk), credit risk, and liquidity risk.

*Commodity price risk*

Vermilion is exposed to commodity price risk on its derivative assets and liabilities which are used as part of the Company's risk management program to mitigate the effects of changes in commodity prices on future cash flows. While transactions of this nature relate to future petroleum and natural gas production, Vermilion does not designate these derivative assets and liabilities as accounting hedges. As such, changes in commodity prices impact the fair value of derivative instruments and the corresponding gains or losses recognized on derivative instruments.

*Currency risk*

Vermilion is exposed to currency risk on its financial instruments denominated in foreign currencies. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payables, lease obligations, long-term debt, derivative assets and derivative liabilities. These financial instruments are primarily denominated in the US dollar and the Euro. Vermilion monitors its exposure to currency risk and reviews whether the use of derivative financial instruments is appropriate to manage potential fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

*Interest rate risk*

Vermilion is exposed to interest rate risk on its revolving credit facility, which consists of short-term borrowing instruments that bear interest at market rates. Thus, changes in interest rates could result in an increase or decrease in the amount paid by Vermilion to service this debt.

The following table summarizes the increase (positive values) or decrease (negative values) to net loss before tax due to a change in the value of Vermilion's financial instruments as a result of a change in the relevant market risk variable. This analysis does not attempt to reflect any interdependencies between the relevant risk variables.

*Credit risk*

Vermilion is exposed to credit risk on accounts receivable and derivative assets in the event that customers, joint operation partners, or counterparties fail to discharge their contractual obligations. As at December 31, 2025, Vermilion's maximum exposure to receivable credit risk was $365.5 million (December 31, 2024 - $352.7 million) which is the value of accounts receivable and derivative assets on the balance sheet.

Vermilion Energy Inc. ∎ Page 31 ∎ 2025 Financial Statements

Vermilion's accounts receivable primarily relates to customers and joint operations partners in the petroleum and natural gas industry. These amounts are subject to normal industry payment terms and credit risks. Vermilion manages these risks by monitoring the creditworthiness of customers and joint operations partners and, where appropriate, obtaining assurances such as parental guarantees and letters of credit. Vermilion determines the lifetime expected credit losses recognized on accounts receivable using a provision matrix. In preparing the provision matrix, the Company takes into account historical credit loss experience based on the aging of accounts receivable, adjusted as necessary for current and future petroleum and natural gas prices to the extent that changes in pricing may negatively impact the Company's customers and joint operations partners. The lifetime expected credit losses on accounts receivable as at December 31, 2025 and 2024 is not material. As at the balance sheet date, approximately 1.7% (2024 –1.1%) of the accounts receivable balance was outstanding for more than 90 days. Vermilion considers the balance of accounts receivable to be collectible.

Vermilion's derivative assets primarily relate to the fair value of financial instruments used as part of the Company's risk management program to mitigate the effects of changes in commodity prices on future cash flows. Vermilion manages this risk by monitoring the creditworthiness of counterparties, transacting primarily with counterparties that have investment grade third party credit ratings, and by limiting the concentration of financial exposure to individual counterparties. As a result, Vermilion has not obtained collateral or other security to support its financial derivatives.

Vermilion's cash deposited in financial institutions and guaranteed investment certificates are also subject to counterparty credit risk. Vermilion mitigates this risk by transacting with financial institutions with high third party credit ratings.

*Liquidity risk*

Liquidity risk is the risk that Vermilion will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities. Vermilion does not consider this to be a significant risk as its financial position and available committed borrowing facility provide significant financial flexibility and allow Vermilion to meet its obligations as they come due.

The following table summarizes Vermilion's undiscounted non-derivative financial liabilities and their contractual maturities:
