Vermilion Energy Inc. (VET) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

Market Penetration for Vermilion Energy Inc. (VET) centers on deepening its presence and efficiency within its existing core asset base, primarily the liquids-rich gas plays in the Canadian Deep Basin and its European gas operations. This strategy is heavily focused on operational execution and financial discipline to maximize returns from current market positions.

Key operational targets for 2025 reflect this focus on maximizing current asset value:

• Maximize production from core assets, targeting 119,500 boe/d for 2025.
• Execute the three-rig drilling program in the Deep Basin during the second half of 2025.
• Realize the C$100 million (NPV10) in synergies from the Westbrick acquisition.
• Prioritize free cash flow to reduce net debt to about C$1.3 billion by year-end 2025.
• Increase shareholder returns, allocating 40% of excess free cash flow to buybacks and dividends.

The execution of the drilling program is a direct lever for market penetration, building on recent activity. During the third quarter of 2025, Vermilion Energy Inc. ran a one-rig program in the Deep Basin, where it drilled thirteen (12.4 net) wells. The plan to ramp up to a three-rig program in the latter half of 2025 is designed to accelerate development on this established acreage. This operational push supports the full-year production goal, with Q4 2025 production expected to average between 119,000 to 121,000 boe/d.

Integration success from the Westbrick acquisition is quantified by the identified synergies. Vermilion Energy Inc. has identified operational and development synergies of approximately C$100 million on an NPV10 basis, which helps drive down unit costs and improve overall asset performance within the Deep Basin. This focus on efficiency is part of the broader financial discipline aimed at deleveraging.

The financial targets show a clear path toward balance sheet strengthening, which underpins future flexibility. The goal is to exit 2025 with net debt around C$1.3 billion. This is supported by strong cash flow generation, as seen in the Q3 2025 Fund Flows from Operations (FFO) of $254 million, which resulted in Free Cash Flow (FCF) of $108 million for that quarter.

Here's a look at some key 2025 figures related to this strategy:

Metric	Value/Target	Context/Period
Full-Year Production Target	119,500 boe/d	2025 Estimate
Q3 2025 Production Actual	119,062 boe/d	Q3 2025
Deep Basin Rigs Planned (H2 2025)	Three-rig program	Second Half of 2025
Westbrick Synergies (NPV10)	C$100 million	Identified Post-Acquisition
Year-End 2025 Net Debt Target	C$1.3 billion	Year-End 2025 Estimate
Excess FCF Allocation to Shareholders	40%	2025 Policy
Q3 2025 Free Cash Flow (FCF)	C$108 million	Q3 2025
Q3 2025 Quarterly Dividend Declared	$0.13 per common share	Payable December 31, 2025

Shareholder returns are explicitly tied to the success of the FCF generation. The policy dictates allocating 40% of Excess Free Cash Flow (EFCF) to returns, which includes the base dividend and share buybacks. The base dividend for Q3 2025 was $0.13 per common share, and Vermilion Energy Inc. has announced a planned increase to $0.135 CAD per share effective with the Q1 2026 dividend.

The variable portion of shareholder returns is directed to buybacks, which helps manage the share count. For instance, in Q1 2025, $17 million was used for share buybacks, resulting in the repurchase and cancellation of 1.3 million shares.

The focus on core gas assets is evident in the 2026 capital plan, where 85% of the E&D capital budget is prioritized for global gas assets, including the Deep Basin and Montney plays.

Vermilion Energy Inc. (VET) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

Market development for Vermilion Energy Inc. centers on expanding the reach and scale of its high-netback gas assets, particularly in established European markets and key North American plays.

You're looking at how Vermilion Energy Inc. is pushing its existing gas production into new development phases within its current geographic footprint. The focus here is on scaling up production where the realized price is strongest.

The premium pricing in Europe is a major driver for this strategy. For the third quarter of 2025, Vermilion Energy Inc. reported a realized average natural gas price of $4.36/mcf before hedging, which jumped to $5.62/mcf after hedging. This post-hedging price was approximately seven and nine times the AECO 5A benchmark, respectively, at that time.

Capital deployment strongly reflects this gas-weighted market development strategy:

• For the full year 2025, Vermilion Energy Inc. has an Exploration and Development (E&D) capital expenditure guidance of $630 to $640 million.
• Looking ahead to the 2026 budget, the commitment to global gas assets is clear, with approximately 85% of the $600 to $630 million E&D capital allocated to this segment. This allocation is consistent with the stated goal of over 80% allocation to global gas assets.
• The International segment, emphasizing European natural gas exploration and development, is slated to receive approximately $200 million of E&D capital in 2026.

In Germany, a key European market, development is progressing from exploration success to infrastructure build-out. The Osterheide well, brought on production late in the first quarter of 2025, maintained a rate of approximately 1,100 boe/d in the third quarter of 2025. The success of earlier exploration is significant; two (1.6 net) deep gas exploration wells in Germany proved up 85 Bcf (60 Bcf net) and are forecasted to reach approximately 4,500 boe/d net by 2028. The company expects its Germany production base to more than double in the coming years, with a target production rate of over 10,000 boe/d.

Simultaneously, Vermilion Energy Inc. is increasing infrastructure capacity in the BC Montney to support future production scale. The company has a target production rate of 28,000 boe/d for this asset. Third-party infrastructure is expected to increase total Montney throughput capacity to this 28,000 boe/d level within the next few years. The Q3 2025 activity included bringing on production one (1.0 net) liquids-rich gas well in the Montney.

Here's a quick look at the production context supporting this market development:

Metric	Value	Period/Context
Full Year 2025 Production Guidance	Approximately 119,500 boe/d	Full Year 2025
Q3 2025 Production Average	119,062 boe/d	Q3 2025
International Production (Q3 2025)	30,299 boe/d	Q3 2025
Target Montney Throughput Capacity	28,000 boe/d	Within the next few years

The strategy involves drilling and infrastructure investment in the Montney to reach that 28,000 boe/d goal, while also drilling six (6.0 net) wells and completing ten (10.0 net) wells in the Montney in 2026 as part of the capital plan.

Invest in operational efficiencies to achieve the 15-20% Scope 1 emissions intensity reduction target by end of 2025

Vermilion Energy Inc. had a target to reduce Scope 1 emissions intensity by 15-20% by the end of 2025, relative to the 2019 baseline. At the end of 2024, the company achieved an approximately 16% reduction in Scope 1 emissions intensity. The Scope 1 emission intensity at the end of 2024 was approximately 0.016 tCO2e/operated boe, down from 0.019 tCO2e/boe in 2019. In 2023, the reduction was 12% from the 2019 baseline, with an intensity just below 0.017 tCO2e/operated boe. Due to structural changes, Vermilion Energy Inc. retired the 2025 target and is now focusing on a 2030 goal of a 25 to 30% Scope 1 plus Scope 2 emissions intensity reduction versus 2019.

Key operational efficiency metrics and targets include:

• Scope 1 emissions intensity reduction target (2025): 15-20% vs 2019 baseline.
• Scope 1 emissions intensity achieved (End 2024): 16% reduction vs 2019 baseline.
• Scope 1 emission intensity (End 2024): 0.016 tCO2e/operated boe.
• Scope 1+2 emissions intensity target (2030): 25-30% reduction vs 2019 baseline.

Develop new infrastructure in the Netherlands to optimize production and reduce operating costs

Vermilion Energy Inc.'s 2025 capital expenditure budget was set between $600 - $625 million. This budget includes drilling and infrastructure capital for European gas exploration and development in Germany and the Netherlands. In the Netherlands for 2025, capital is allocated to a high-return infrastructure optimization project designed to lower operating costs and extend production capacity. The 2026 budget reflects a 30% improvement in capital efficiencies and unit operating costs compared to 2024. The 2026 operating cost guidance is forecasted at $12.25 - $13.25 /boe, a 4% decrease from the 2025 guidance of $13.00 - $13.50 /boe.

Comparative Unit Cost Guidance:

Cost Category	2025 Guidance ($/boe)	2026 Guidance ($/boe)
Operating	$13.00 - 13.50	$12.25 - 13.25
General and administration (exclusive of equity)	$2.25 - 2.75	$1.65 - 2.15
Transportation	$3.00 - 3.50	$3.00 - 3.50

Vermilion Energy Inc. (VET) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at how Vermilion Energy Inc. is moving beyond its core oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) business, which is the definition of diversification in the Ansoff Matrix. This isn't just talk; the numbers show concrete shifts in capital and focus.

Evaluate early-stage hydrogen production potential, a completely new energy product.

Vermilion Energy Inc. is actively evaluating the potential for completely new energy products, specifically looking at hydrogen production. This exploration is focused geographically, with Vermilion Energy Inc. currently evaluating hydrogen production potential in France and Ireland. This move is paired with the potential for carbon storage in France, suggesting an integrated approach to lower-carbon energy solutions. This represents a move into a market segment that is definitively a new product offering for Vermilion Energy Inc.

Seek partnerships for carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects, adapting to the energy transition.

Adapting the existing portfolio to the energy transition involves seeking out partnerships for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects. Vermilion Energy Inc. explicitly lists CCS as a consideration when adapting its portfolio to new energy. The company's overall strategy includes adapting its portfolio to new energy, considering CCS, biogas, geothermal, and other new technologies, with a long-term goal related to this adaptation set for 35-45% by 2050. This adaptation is a key part of managing climate-related risks and opportunities.

Explore new, non-E&P revenue streams in Europe, like the biogas project, for a defintely different business model.

The move into non-E&P revenue streams is already taking shape in Europe. Vermilion Energy Inc. is involved in a biogas production partnership at the former Harlingen Treatment Centre site in the Netherlands. The anticipated execution date for this specific project is the end of 2026. This type of venture moves Vermilion Energy Inc. into a different business model centered on renewable natural gas or related energy services, rather than solely upstream hydrocarbon extraction and sales.

Here are some key operational and financial metrics reflecting the portfolio shift as of mid-to-late 2025:

Metric	Value/Status (2025)	Context
Portfolio Gas Weighting Goal	90% gas-weighted assets	Post-restructuring and divestitures.
Q3 2025 Production	119,062 boe/d (67% gas)	Reflecting asset divestments.
Full-Year 2025 Production Guidance	Approximately 119,500 boe/d (65% natural gas)	Post-divestment guidance.
Net Debt (Sept 30, 2025)	$1.38 billion	Reduced by over $650 million since Q1 2025.
Target Net Debt-to-FFO Ratio (Exit 2025)	1.0x or less	Goal reinforcing financial discipline.

Reallocate capital from divested oil assets (like the C$120 million US sale) into new energy ventures.

Capital reallocation is being funded by exiting oil-focused assets. Vermilion Energy Inc. completed the sale of its United States assets for cash proceeds of $120 million. This transaction, which closed in July 2025, was part of a broader restructuring that also included divesting assets in Saskatchewan. The US Assets sold were approximately 5,500 boe/d, with 81% oil and liquids weighting. The net proceeds from this transaction were directed towards debt repayment to accelerate deleveraging. The 2025 E&D capital budget was adjusted down to a range of $630 to $660 million following the removal of capital associated with the divested US and Saskatchewan assets. While the immediate use of the $120 million proceeds was debt repayment, this deleveraging strengthens the balance sheet, creating the financial flexibility to fund the exploration and evaluation of new energy ventures like hydrogen and biogas projects mentioned above. The company expects to exit 2025 with net debt of $1.3 billion. It's a clear trade: selling oil production to pay down debt and focus capital on gas and new energy evaluation.

The shift in focus is clear:

• Evaluating hydrogen potential in France and Ireland.
• Partnership for biogas in the Netherlands, targeted for end of 2026 execution.
• Divested US assets for $120 million in cash proceeds.
• Net debt reduced by over $650 million between Q1 and Q3 2025.
