Western Energy Services Corp. Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) (tabular amounts are in thousands of Canadian dollars, except common share and per common share amounts) 6 1. Reporting entity: Western Energy Services Corp. (“Western”) is a company domiciled in Canada. The address of the head office is 1700, 215 - 9th Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta. Western is a publicly traded company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol “WRG”. These condensed consolidated financial statements as at September 30, 2025 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (the “Financial Statements”) are compris --- ed of Western, its divisions and its wholly owned subsidiary (together referred to as the “Company”). The Company is an energy service company providing contract drilling services through its division, Horizon Drilling (“Horizon”) in Canada, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Stoneham Drilling Corporation (“Stoneham”) in the United States. Western provides production services in Canada through its division Eagle Well Servicing (“Eagle”) which provides well servicing and its division Aero Rental Services (“Aero”) which provides rental equipment services. Financial and operating results for Horizon and Stoneham are included in the contract drilling segment, while financial and operating results for Eagle and Aero are included in the production services segment. 2. Basis of preparation and material accounting policies: Statement of compliance: These Financial Statements have been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS®”) and in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. These Financial Statements have been prepared using accounting policies and estimates which are consistent with Note 3 and 4 of the consolidated financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 as filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. These Financial Statements were approved for issuance by Western’s Board of Directors on October 21, 2025. Functional and presentation currency: These Financial Statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is Western’s functional currency. Critical accounting estimates and recent developments: The preparation of these Financial Statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The current economic environment and volatility of global demand for commodities results in uncertainty for the Company, as well as estimates and assumptions used by management to prepare these Financial Statements. Estimates and judgments made by management are subject to a higher degree of volatility in this uncertain time. A full list of critical accounting estimates is included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. 3. Seasonality: The Company’s operations are often weather dependent, which has a seasonal effect. During the first quarter, the working conditions in the field are conducive to oilfield activities including frozen conditions allowing crude oil and natural gas exploration and production companies to move heavy equipment to otherwise inaccessible areas and the resulting demand for services, such as those provided by the Company, is typically high. The second quarter is normally a slower period in Canada, as the spring thaw and wet conditions create weight restrictions on roads, reducing the mobility of heavy equipment, which slows activity levels in the industry. The third and fourth quarters are usually representative of average activity levels. T --- herefore, interim periods may not be representative of the results expected for the full year of operation due to seasonality. Western Energy Services Corp. Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) (tabular amounts are in thousands of Canadian dollars, except common share and per common share amounts) 7 4. Operating segments: The Company provides energy services primarily to oil and natural gas exploration companies through its contract drilling and production services segments in both Canada and the United States. Contract drilling includes drilling rigs along with related ancillary equipment. Production services includes well servicing rigs and related equipment, as well as rental equipment. The Company’s executive officers review internal management reports for these operating segments on at least a monthly basis. Information regarding the results of the operating segments is included below. Performance is measured based on operating earnings (loss), as included in internal management reports. Operating earnings (loss) is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain operating segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. Operating earnings (loss) is calculated as revenue less operating expenses, administrative expenses, and depreciation. The following is a summary of the Company’s results by operating segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024: Total Revenue 37,840 $ 12,206 $ - $ (11) $ 50,035 $ Expenses Operating (25,428) (8,263) - 11 (33,680) Administrative (1,611) (1,280) (402) - (3,293) Depreciation (8,305) (1,906) (313) - (10,524) Operating earnings (loss) 2,496 757 (715) - 2,538 Add (deduct) Stock based compensation (24) (165) (49) - (238) Finance costs - - (2,162) - (2,162) Other items (3,198) 17 131 - (3,050) Income (loss) before income taxes (726) $ 609 $ (2,795) $ - $ (2,912) $ Inter-segment Elimination Three months ended September 30, 2025 Contract Drilling Production Services Corporate Total Revenue 43,590 $ 14,813 $ - $ (60) $ 58,343 $ Expenses Operating (32,369) (10,108) - 60 (42,417) Administrative (2,334) (1,270) (889) - (4,493) Depreciation (7,669) (2,033) (365) - (10,067) Operating earnings (loss) 1,218 1,402 (1,254) - 1,366 Add (deduct) Stock based compensation 3 (36) (124) - (157) Finance costs - - (2,476) - (2,476) Other items - - (316) - (316) Income (loss) before income taxes 1,221 $ 1,366 $ (4,170) $ - $ (1,583) $ Inter-segment Elimination Three months ended September 30, 2024 Contract Drilling Production Services Corporate Western Energy Services Corp.

On January 27, 2025, the Company extended the maturity date of its second lien term loan facility (the “Second Lien Facility”) with Alberta Investment Management Corporation (“AIMCo”) to May 18, 2027, which resulted in an automatic one year extension of the Credit Facilities maturity date from November 18, 2025, to the earlier of (i) six months prior to the maturity date of the Second Lien Facility, which is now November 18, 2026 or (ii) March 22, 2027. Western Energy Services Corp. Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) (tabular amounts are in thousands of Canadian dollars, except common share and per common share amounts) 11 7. Long term debt (continued): Amounts borrowed under the Credit Facilities bear interest at the bank’s Canadian prime rate, or the Canadian overnight repo rate average rate plus an applicable margin depending, in each case, on the ratio of Consolidated Debt to Consolidated EBITDA as defined by the Credit Facilities agreement. The Credit Facilities are secured by the assets of the Company. As at September 30, 2025, the Company’s Credit Facilities are subject to the following financial covenants: Covenant September 30, 2025 Maximum Consolidated Senior Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio (1)(2) 3.0:1.0 or less 0.1:1.0 Maximum Consolidated Debt to Consolidated Capitalization Ratio (3)(4) 0.5:1.0 or less 0.2:1.0 Minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio(5) 1.15:1.0 or greater Not applicable (5) The Debt Service Coverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to the total of all regularly scheduled debt payments, including interest, paid on a trailing twelve month basis. It is only applicable ifthe Company has more than $25.0 million drawn on its Credit Facili --- ties, or if the net book value of property and equipment is less than $250.0 million. As at September 30, 2025, the Company had $5.5 million drawn on its Credit Facilities and the net book value of its property and equipment was greater than $250.0 million, therefore the covenant was not applicable. (1) Consolidated Senior Debt in the Credit Facilities is defined as indebtedness under the Credit Facilities and vehicle lease obligations, reduced by unrestricted cash. (2) Consolidated EBITDA in the Credit Facilities is defined on a trailing twelve month basis as consolidated net income (loss), plus interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and any other non-cash items or extraordinary or non-recurring losses, less gains on sale of property and equipment and any other non-cash items or extraordinary or non-recurring gains that are included in the calculation of consolidated net income (loss). (3) Consolidated Debt in the Credit Facilities is defined as Consolidated Senior Debt plus the HSBC Facility, and Second Lien Facility less unrestricted cash.

Financial risk management: Interest rate risk: The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on certain debt instruments, such as the Credit Facilities and the HSBC Facility, to the extent the prime interest rate changes and/or the Company’s interest rate margin changes. Other long term debt, such as the Second Lien Facility and the Company’s lease obligations, have fixed interest rates, however they are subject to interest rate fluctuations relating to refinancing. Inflation risk: The general rate of inflation impacts the economies and business environments in which Western operates. Increased inflation and any econ --- omic conditions resulting from governmental attempts to reduce inflation, such as the imposition of higher interest rates, could negatively impact Western’s borrowing costs, which could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on Western’s cash flow and ability to service obligations under the Credit Facilities, HSBC Facility and the Second Lien Facility. Foreign exchange risk: The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations in relation to its US dollar capital expenditures and operations. At September 30, 2025, portions of the Company’s cash balances, trade and other receivables, trade payables and other current liabilities were denominated in US dollars and subject to foreign exchange fluctuations which are recorded within net income. In addition, Stoneham, Western’s US subsidiary, is subject to foreign currency translation adjustments upon consolidation, which is recorded separately within other comprehensive income. Credit risk: Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents held with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposure to customers in the form of outstanding trade and other receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying amount of the financial assets which reflects management’s assessment of the credit risk. The Company’s trade receivables are with customers in the energy industry and are subject to industry credit risk. Western Energy Services Corp. Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) (tabular amounts are in thousands of Canadian dollars, except common share and per common share amounts) 15 17. Financial risk management (continued): In accordance with IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, the Company evaluates the collectability of its trade and other receivables and its allowance for doubtful accounts at each reporting date. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts if an account is determined to be uncollectable. The allowance for doubtful accounts could materially change due to fluctuations in the financial position of the Company’s customers. The Company reviews its historical credit losses as part of its impairment assessment. The Company has had low historical impairment losses on its trade receivables, due in part to its credit management processes. As such, the Company assesses impairment losses on an individual customer account basis, rather than recognizing an impairment loss on all outstanding trade and other receivables. The following table provides an analysis of the Company’s trade and other receivables as at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024: September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Trade receivables $ 29,741 $ 30,473 Accrued trade receivables 7,688 8,392 Other receivables 165 678 Allowance for doubtful accounts (1,887) (1,985) Total $ 35,707 $ 37,558 For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had one customer comprising 11.5% of the Company’s total revenue. This customer was also a significant customer for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, comprising 10.1% of the Company’s total revenue. There was a second significant customer for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 comprising 12.1% of the Company’s total revenue. The total trade receivable balance outstanding related to the two significant customers for 2025 represented 10.0% and 5.4% respectively, of the Company’s total trade and other receivables as at September 30, 2025. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the --- Company had no customers comprising 10.0% or more of the Company’s total revenue. There were no significant customers for the year ending December 31, 2024. Liquidity risk: Liquidity risk is the exposure of the Company to the risk of not being able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages liquidity risk through management of its capital structure, monitoring and reviewing actual and forecasted cash flows and the effect on bank covenants and maintaining unused credit facilities where possible to ensure there are available cash resources to meet the Company’s liquidity needs. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operating activities, the Credit Facilities, the HSBC Facility, and the Second Lien Facility are expected to be greater than anticipated capital expenditures and the contractual maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities. This expectation could be adversely affected by a material negative change in the energy service industry, which in turn could lead to covenant breaches on the Company’s Credit Facilities, which if not amended or waived, could limit, in part, or in whole, the Company’s access to the Credit Facilities and Second Lien Facility.
