Ovintiv Inc. (NYSE, TSX: OVV) reported second quarter 2026 results on July 23, 2026, per Exhibit 99.1 (news release) and Exhibit 99.2 (selected and supplemental financial information).

The company reported net earnings of $456 milliona, or $1.62 per diluted share, which included a $337 million pre-tax loss on the divestiture of its Anadarko assets. Cash from operating activities was $1.6 billion, Non-GAAP Cash Flow was $1.256 billion and Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow was $682 million after capital expenditures of $574 million. The Anadarko sale closed for total cash proceeds of approximately $2.82 billion after preliminary closing adjustments and transaction costs.

Average production was 615 MBOE/d, including 206 Mbbls/d of oil and condensate, above the high end of company guidance. The company returned approximately 63% of second quarter Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow to shareholders through share repurchases of about $345 millionb (6.1 million shares) and dividend payments of $84 million. Year-to-date shareholder returns were about 45% of Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow, and management expects full-year 2026 returns to exceed 60%.

Net Debt was $2.995 billionc as of June 30, 2026, and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 0.6x, versus 1.2x at December 31, 2025. The Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share, payable September 29, 2026 to holders of record on September 15, 2026. Full-year 2026 production guidance was raised to 630 to 645 MBOE/d, while full-year capital investment guidance is unchanged at $2.25 billion to $2.35 billion.

The release describes the revision as reflecting higher expected oil and condensate production for the same capital investment, which it characterizes as 4% production per share growth. Third-quarter 2026 guidance calls for 615 to 640 MBOE/d of total production and $550 to $600 milliond of capital investment.
