New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 22% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 24% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (73% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks High level of debt (48% net debt to equity).

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of German stocks, typically moving 6.1% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 7.8% per year for the foreseeable future.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 6.9% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits.

In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 6.9% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (107% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risk High level of debt (66% net debt to equity). Reported Earnings • Aug 11

Wilks Brothers Files Appeal to U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit Calfrac Well Services Ltd. announces that Wilks Brothers, LLC and its affiliated funds ("Wilks Brothers") filed an appeal on June 1, 2021 to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Wilks Brothers is appealing the decision by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas affirming an order by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. That order granted recognition and enforcement in the United States of Calfrac's Plan of Arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act, which was consummated in December of 2020. The time frame for the appeal hearing remains to be determined. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit will, as a preliminary matter, issue a notice setting out the briefing schedule for the parties' written arguments. Calfrac will provide a further update upon any material developments. As recently announced, the application of Wilks Brothers for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada was dismissed. Similarly, Calfrac believes that it is well-positioned to oppose this new appeal and looks forward to the opportunity to dispense with the appeal on the merits. Calfrac's common shares and warrants are publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbols "CFW" and "CFW.WT", respectively. Calfrac provides specialized oilfield services to exploration and production companies designed to increase the production of hydrocarbons from wells drilled throughout western Canada, the United States, Argentina and Russia.

Calfrac Well Services Ltd. Announces Supreme Court of Canada Dismisses Wilks Brothers' Leave to Appeal Application with Costs Calfrac Well Services Ltd. announced that the Supreme Court of Canada has dismissed the leave to appeal application by Wilks Brothers, LLC with costs. Wilks Brothers' proposed appeal related to the decision of the Court of Appeal of Alberta upholding the order of the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta, which approved Calfrac's Plan of Arrangement pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act ("CBCA Final Order"). The Supreme Court of Canada's dismissal of the leave to appeal application means that the CBCA Final Order, pursuant to which Calfrac implemented its Recapitalization Transaction, is no longer subject to any further Canadian appeal rights, and remains in full force and effect. As previously disclosed, Wilks Brothers' has applied to the Ontario Securities Commission (the "OSC") requesting a hearing and review by the OSC of the decision of the Toronto Stock Exchange granting relief in respect of the rescission of the purchase of 1.5 Lien Notes of Calfrac acquired by an institutional shareholder.

Calfrac has similarly opposed other litigation by Wilks Brothers, and has prevailed in each case. Calfrac will provide a further update upon any material developments. Reported Earnings • May 01

Appeal of U.S. Enforcement Order for Calfrac's Recapitalization Transaction to Be Heard in U.S. District Court Calfrac Well Services Ltd. had applied to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas to dismiss, on an expedited basis, a further appeal filed by Wilks Brothers, LLC. This appeal relates to the order of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas which granted enforcement in the United States of Calfrac's Plan of Arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "U.S. Enforcement Order"). Calfrac's motion to dispose of this matter was, however, denied. The full Appeal will therefore be heard by the District Court at a future date. Calfrac is well-positioned to oppose the Appeal by Wilks Brothers and looks forward to the opportunity to dispense with the Appeal on the merits. Wilks Brothers has objected to essentially every application that Calfrac has made in both Canada and the United States. Accordingly, on December 11, 2020, Wilks Brothers filed an appeal of the U.S. Enforcement Order before the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. On December 18, 2020, the Amended Recapitalization Transaction that had been approved at all levels, was consummated. On January 8, 2021, Calfrac filed a motion to dismiss the Appeal on the basis of equitable mootness, because the Recapitalization Transaction has already been completed pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement. At a hearing held earlier today the U.S. District Court denied Calfrac's motion to dismiss. Calfrac will provide further information as the Appeal proceedings move forward. As indicated, Calfrac will be vigorously opposing the Appeal. Announcement • Jan 27
