Overview

Alberta-focused mid-cap heavy-oil producer built around the Clearwater fairway (Marten Hills, Nipisi, West Marten Hills) plus, until mid-2026, Charlie Lake light oil. FY2025 output averaged 68.2 Mboe/d (~62% oil & NGLs). Founder-led by CEO Brian Schmidt with an emphasis on low-decline waterflood/EOR development and shareholder returns.

FY2025: revenue ~C$1.61B, adjusted funds flow C$796M, free cash flow C$390M, EBITDA ~C$878M, with a small net loss (C$36M) on non-cash charges. Total proved (1P) reserves 174 MMboe (before-tax NPV10 ~C$2.2B); 2P 282 MMboe. In May 2026 TVE agreed to sell Charlie Lake for C$804M (closed June 16, 2026), becoming a pure-play Clearwater producer with a net cash position (>C$125M pro-forma) and a 25% dividend increase to C$0.20/share annualized.

Its EV/EBITDA of 9.2x is above the 5.9x median across the 142-company universe, the free-cash-flow yield of 5.7% is lower than the 6.5% median, and at $30.80/boe of proved reserves it is richer than the $13.51/boe median.

On a balanced screen across the universe, Tamarack Valley Energy Ltd. scores 49/100, strongest on growth (81/100). Sub-scores: value 24, quality 54, growth 81, risk 35 (higher = riskier).

Reserves & production

Tamarack Valley Energy Ltd. holds approximately 0.17 billion boe of proved (1P) reserves with FY2025 production of about 68 thousand boe/d (85% liquids), a reserve life of roughly 7.0 years. Break-even: ~$40 (WTI FCF breakeven) — Low-decline Clearwater waterflood/EOR base and low operating costs give a sustaining (maintenance capex + base dividend) breakeven near US$35 WTI; corporate FCF breakeven sits in the low-$40s. Heavy-oil WCS differentials are the main swing factor.

Net asset value (public-source)

For Tamarack Valley Energy Ltd., no SEC standardized measure is disclosed (non-US filer or listed NOC), so a public-source proved-NAV floor is not computable from US filings. See the interactive screener's NAV tab for peers where an SEC figure exists.

How this is scored. Each country's risk (0–100) is anchored to two named public indices — the OECD Country Risk Classification (0–7 official export-credit country risk) and the World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators (Political Stability & Absence of Violence percentile) — blended 55/45 and rescaled to 0–100. A company's jurisdiction risk is the production-weighted average across the countries where it operates. This is a pure country measure, kept separate from company & financial risk (leverage, governance). Source: OECD Country Risk Classification (CRC) as of 24 July 2025, sourced via the German Federal Export Credit Guarantees (exportkreditgarantien.de) which applies the OECD consensus country risk category directly (values 0-7; 0 = lowest risk). High-income OECD members are not individually rated by the OECD and are set to crc=0 per the model spec (US, UK, Norway, Canada, Australia, Japan, NZ, and most of Europe incl. OECD members Israel, Poland, Hungary, Czechia, Lithuania, Ireland). 'ps' = World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) 'Political Stability and Absence of Violence/Terrorism' percentile rank, latest available (2023 vintage), 0-100 with higher = more stable; ps values are best sourced estimates rounded to the WGI percentile scale. Yemen not on OECD list ('./.') so crc estimated at 7. Iraq-Kurdistan and Falklands are non-standard model rows using judgment, not official OECD entries..
