Event Summary

Saba Energy Ltd. (TSXV: BGE) has been under a Management Cease Trade Order (MCTO) since May 4, 2026 due to delayed filing of its audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Canada — Alberta Securities Commission granted the MCTO initially until June 30, 2026, and later extended it to July 31, 2026. The delay is attributed to the inability to obtain financial information from its operating partner in British Columbia, which is undergoing a Notice of Intention to Make a Proposal under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act. Saba Energy has been issuing bi-weekly default status reports and has progressed with the receiver of its operating partner to obtain the required information. The company anticipates completing the filings by July 31, 2026.
