2020

Calgary, Canada – December 9, 2020 – High Arctic Energy Services Inc. (TSX: HWO) (“High Arctic” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that it has made the necessary filings and received the necessary approvals to conduct a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”). The TSX has accepted the Corporation’s notice to conduct the NCIB to purchase outstanding common shares on the open market, in accordance with the rules of the TSX.  As approved by the TSX, the Corporation is authorized to purchase up to 2,437,983 common shares, representing approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of High Arctic. There were 48,759,660 common shares outstanding as of November 30, 2020.  The maximum number of common shares that High Arctic may purchase on any given day is 14,063 common shares, which represents 25% of the average daily trading volume of 56,255 common shares on the TSX for the six-month period ended November 30, 2020.  High Arctic may also make one weekly block repurchase which exceeds the daily limit subject to prescribed rules. All common shares acquired under the NCIB will be cancelled. The Corporation is authorized to make purchases during the period from December 11, 2020 to December 10, 2021, or until such earlier time as the NCIB is completed or terminated at the option of the Corporation. Any common shares the Corporation purchases under the NCIB will be purchased on the open market through the facilities of the TSX or alternative Canadian markets, at the prevailing market price at the time of the transaction. The Corporation has appointed an independent brokerage agent to conduct the NCIB transactions under an automatic purchase plan agreement (“APPA”) dated December 11, 2020.  The APPA will allow the broker to purchase common shares under the bid during internal blackout periods when the Corporation would normally not be permitted to trade in its shares.  Such purchases will be at the sole discretion of the broker based on direction received from High Arctic prior to any blackout period and in accordance with all regulatory and securities law. The Corporation believes that from time to time the market price of the High Arctic common shares may not reflect their underlying value and that, at such times, the purchase of common shares for cancellation will increase the proportionate interest of, and be advantageous to, all remaining shareholders. In addition, the purchases by High Arctic under the NCIB may increase liquidity to the Corporation’s shareholders wishing to sell their common shares. The Corporation’s previous NCIB expired on December 1, 2020 and under that program, a total of 1,137,100 common shares at a weighted average price of $0.72 per share have been repurchased for cancellation. About High Arctic High Arctic is a publicly traded company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “HWO”.  The Corporation’s principal focus is to provide drilling and specialized well completion services, equipment rentals and other services to the oil and gas industry. High Arctic is a market leader providing drilling and specialized well completion services and supplies rig matting, camps and drilling support equipment on a rental basis in Papua New Guinea.  The Canadian operations provide well servicing, well abandonment, snubbing and nitrogen services and equipment on a rental basis to a large number of oil and natural gas exploration and production companies operating in Western Canada and the United States.

(TSX: HWO) (the “Corporation” or “High Arctic”) released its’ third quarter results today. Mike Maguire, Chief Executive Officer commented: “The health and economic environments have remained challenging through this quarter. The action we took in April to restructure and flatten our management reporting lines, remove costs, suspend our dividend and reduce our capex have ensured that we can navigate this period focused on high quality safe and effective operations, maintaining the health of our employees and our stellar QHSE reputation. We recognize the importance of communication, and maintain open dialogue with our customers, bankers and government while planning for the recovery of the energy sector. On a personal note, it was humbling to speak with and thank the small core of international employees who returned home in October after seven straight months of service in Papua New Guinea.” Highlights The following highlights the Corporation’s results for Q3-2020 and YTD-2020: Revenue of $18.5 million and $74.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 (2019 – $49.6 million and $142.7 million, respectively) and adjusted EBITDA of $3.4 million and $7.3 million (2019 – $6.3 million and $15.8 million) for the Quarter and YTD, respectively. This included Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy (“CEWS”) benefits, which provided $4.9 million on a YTD basis (Q3-2020 – $2.8 million) to retain a well-positioned and skilled workforce. Achieved several quality and safety milestones: • PNG operations reached four years of continuous work Total Recordable Incident Free on August 24, 2020, • Canadian operations reached two years Lost Time Injury Free on September 29, 2020, • 7.5 years Total Recordable Incident Free in October 2020 at our Cold Lake operations with our largest and longest standing Canadian customer, and • High Arctic was once again recognized by the IADC-AC with the 2019 Australasian Safety Statistics Award, the fourth such award in the past five years. Focus on working capital management to preserve our cash balances and maintain a strong balance sheet during the current global coronavirus (“COVID-19”) crisis has demonstrated High Arctic’s resilience and positioning for recovery in step with customer opportunities: • Strong working capital position of $40.6 million at September 30, 2020, and includes a cash balance of $33.2 million, • Subsequent to Q3-2020, renewed our revolving bank loan facility and extended the term 2 years through to August 31, 2023. The maximum availability remains at $45.0 million, of which $10.0 million has been drawn, with similar covenants, margin requirements and conditions.

Calgary, Alberta, October 15, 2020 – High Arctic Energy Services Inc. (TSX: HWO) (“High Arctic” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce the two-year extension of its current credit facility with HSBC (the “Credit Facility”).  The Credit Facility maturity date is extended to August 31, 2023 with enhanced flexibility and similar underlying financial covenants and borrowing capacity. In addition to the Corporation’s existing cash balance, which was $33.5 million on June 30, 2020, the available Credit Facility capacity provides additional liquidity for both future operating and capital requirements.  Chris Ames, CFO noted “This extension demonstrates our lenders confidence in High Arctic and our business model.  Ongoing availability of the Credit Facility and disciplined cost control are cornerstones of our goal to take advantage of business opportunities as we emerge from the current market conditions. We continue to exercise capital discipline while pursuing our strategy to increase value for our shareholders.” The Corporation has drawn $10.0 million of the $45.0 million revolving loan facility available, which now matures on August 31, 2023. The Credit Facility terms continue to include two financial covenants stipulating that the Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio shall not exceed 3.00 to 1.00 and EBITDA to Interest Expense Ratio shall remain below 3.00 to 1.00. The facility is renewable with the lender’s consent and is secured by a general security agreement over the Corporation’s assets.   The calculation of the Corporation’s borrowing base remains unchanged and is limited to 60% of the net book value of the Canadian fixed assets plus 85% of investment grade receivables, 75% of acceptable accounts receivable, plus 90% of insured receivables; less priority payables as defined in the Credit Facility agreement.  The bank defined EBITDA covenant now includes an add back of restructuring costs up to $1 million in any given trailing 12-month period. The new arrangement also includes a backstop feature that provides $5 million availability in the event the above two financial covenants are not met. Operational Update and Safety Performance The Corporation is also pleased to report on outstanding continued operational safety performance. On August 24th, 2020, High Arctic’s Papua New Guinea (“PNG”) operations reached the world-class milestone of four years Total Recordable Incident Free operations and on September 29th, 2020, High Arctic’s Canadian operations celebrated a total of twenty four months Lost Time Injury Free operations. This sustained performance, culminated in High Arctic again being awarded the Australasian Safety Statistics Award (Onshore) for 2019 at the recent Annual General Meeting of the International Association of Drilling Contractors – Australasian Chapter (IADC-AC), which High Arctic has now won 4 out of the last 5 years. Mike Maguire, CEO commented “Safety performance and service quality are principal focuses of our operations and both our PNG and North American operations have delivered record results. Many companies have aspirational zero targets for safety, High Arctic has achieved this target which it has been able to sustain. We understand that these achievements do not come by luck. Hard work, dedication to safe work initiatives and skills development through internationally recognized training of our personnel are fundamental to this result. This could not have been achieved or maintained without a dedicated workforce, stable long-term suppliers and supportive customers.” In PNG significant travel restrictions remain in place and the number of reported COVID-19 cases is growing.  The Corporation remains engaged with our customers with personnel deployed to assist with their essential operations while we position for a return to drilling activity. We are encouraged by the announcement on September 21 from the Prime Minister that the “National Government will continue to make additional concessions for an acceptable pathway to all parties to get the US$9.2 billion P’nyang gas project off the ground.” In Canada the corporation has deployed plant and personnel to deliver our first services under the Alberta Site Rehabilitation Program and we now have received a modest but increasing number of project approvals under both the Alberta and the Saskatchewan Programs.  We are working with our customers to optimize the scheduling of this work. As a result of an internal review of the US market High Arctic have now mothballed our operations in Colorado and North Dakota. Having worked with our customers to finish ongoing commitments we concluded our final operation in the US in early September. The Corporation will monitor the market for signs of improvement that could see operations resume.  About High Arctic High Arctic is a publicly traded company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “HWO”.

(TSX: HWO) (the “Corporation” or “High Arctic”) released its’ second quarter results today. Highlights The following highlights the Corporation’s results for Q2-2020 and YTD-2020: Focus on working capital management to preserve our cash balances and maintain a strong balance sheet during the current global coronavirus (“COVID-19”) crisis has positioned High Arctic to be ready once restrictions loosen through the following: o Increased net cash balance by $5.2 million. o Strong working capital position of $49.7 million at June 30, 2020, and o Unused bank credit facility of $35.0 million. Revenue of $16.1 million and $55.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 (2019 – $46.6 million and $93.1 million, respectively) and adjusted EBITDA of $1.2 million and $3.9 million (2019 – $4.0 million and $9.5 million) for the Quarter and YTD, respectively. On a year to date basis as compared to 2019, capital expenditures and business acquisition expenditures have been reduced by $12.0 million, dividends have been reduced by $3.4 million and cost reduction and control measures have been implemented throughout the organization. Year to date oilfield services expenses have been reduced by $31.7 million as compared to 2019. After the inclusion of $0.9 million in YTD-2020 restructuring costs, as well as $0.6 million in bad debt provision, general and administrative expenses have decreased by $0.1 million. Service delivery to our customers with safety of personnel and quality of service top of mind during this COVID-19 crisis, lifted the Canadian market share of Concord Well Servicing to 26% in Q2-2020. Benefits from the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy (“CEWS”) were obtained, which provided $2.1 million toward wages of Canadian workers and was utilized to retain a capable workforce to service current and prospective customers now, and when restrictions loosen and markets improve. Mike Maguire, Chief Executive Officer commented: “The health and economic environments have been exceptionally challenging and we have risen to the challenge. We have reacted swiftly to restructure and flatten our Management reporting lines, remove costs, suspend our dividend and reduce our Capex. In the field, our ability to react has been made possible because of our people. They range from dedicated individuals in Papua New Guinea who remained in working “isolation bubbles” for months without seeing their families, to teams in Canada and USA working in their own “bubbles” through harsh seasonal conditions wearing additional layers of PPE and adopting special protocols to prevent exposure to and spread of COVID-19. It is not possible at this point to predict when global economic conditions will improve, but we are confident that we have found a way to operate effectively through these challenges. Corporately, a disciplined balance sheet management approach will continue to be our objective, including cost control measures that will allow us to capitalize on strategic opportunities. In the meantime, we expect to continue to increase our activity through working closely with our customers who are planning work programs for resumption of shut-in production as commodity prices continue to lift, and from the various Western Canada well abandonment programs as the focus shifts more towards isolating and capping wellbores.” For the full copy of the release click the link below.
