Report to Shareholders for the period ended June 30, 2020 (All financial figures are expressed in Canadian dollars ($ or C$) unless otherwise noted) MEG Energy Corp. reported second quarter 2020 operational and financial results on July 27, 2020. MEG continues to proactively respond to the safety and financial challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and remains committed to ensuring the health and safety of all its personnel and the safe and reliable operation of the Christina Lake facility. “The second quarter was characterized by extreme negative movements in commodity prices coupled with unprecedented uncertainty regarding near-term crude oil supply and demand balances due to COVID-19” said Derek Evans, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our team continued to react quickly during the quarter to protect MEG’s financial liquidity by voluntarily curtailing production, making additional cuts to our capital budget and further reducing G&A and non-energy operating expenses, all of which when supplemented by our strong hedge position allowed MEG to exit the quarter with an undrawn revolver and $120 million of cash on hand.” MEG remains well positioned from a financial liquidity perspective, benefiting not only from its significant 2020 hedge book and the term and structure of its outstanding indebtedness and credit facility, but also from the low decline and low cost structure of its high-quality Christina Lake asset. Second quarter financial and operating highlights include: Free cash flow of $69 million driven by adjusted funds flow of $89 million ($0.29 per share) and disciplined capital spending of $20 million; $120 million of cash on hand at quarter end benefiting from a $215 million realized commodity risk management gain in the quarter. MEG’s $800 million modified covenant-lite revolver remains undrawn; Bitumen production volumes of 75,687 barrels per day (bbls/d) at a steam-oil ratio (SOR) of 2.3, while undertaking planned turnaround activities; Net operating costs of $6.14 per barrel, including non-energy operating costs of $4.09 per barrel and strong power sales which had the impact of offsetting 32% of per barrel energy operating costs, resulting in a net energy operating cost of $2.05 per barrel; On May 4, 2020, as a result of the negative and uncertain commodity price environment at that time, MEG reduced full year 2020 capital investment by an additional $50 million to $150 million, or 40% below original guidance of $250 million. Approximately 75% of the aggregate $100 million capital reduction in the year was associated with future bitumen production. MEG also reduced non-energy operating cost and general and administrative (“G&A”) expense guidance by $20 million and $10 million, respectively; and During the quarter, a decision was made to roll back salaries across the company, with an emphasis on Board, executive and senior leader compensation. Effective June 1, 2020, base cash compensation for Board members was reduced by 25%. The President and Chief Executive Officer had his annual base salary reduced by 25%, the Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer each took a 15% annual base salary reduction, vice presidents received a 12% annual base salary rollback and all other employees received a 7.5% annual base salary rollback. In addition, the value of target 2020 long-term incentive awards issued to employees and directors on April 1, 2020 was reduced by 20%. 1

Bitumen production averaged 75,687 bbls/d in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 91,557 bbls/d in the firstquarter of 2020.

Bitumenproductionaveraged75,687bbls/dduringthesecondquarterof2020comparedto97,288bbls/dinthesecond quarter of 2019.

Steam-OilRatio

The Corporation uses SAGD technology to recover bitumen. In SAGD operations, steam is injected into the oilreservoirtomobilizebitumen,whichisthenpumpedtothesurface.AnimportantmetricforthermaloilprojectsisSteam-Oil Ratio ("SOR"), which is an efficiency indicator that measures the average amount of steam that isinjectedintothereservoirforeachbarrelofbitumenproduced.TheCorporationcontinuestofocusonimprovingefficiencyofproductionthroughalowerSOR,whichgenerallyindicatesthatsteamisbeingmoreefficientlyused,but isalso influencedby the introductionofnewwells intocirculation.TheSOR increased for the threeandsixmonthsendedJune30,2020,comparedtothesameperiodsof2019,duetothetimingofnewwellpairsandwellsbeingbrought intosteamcirculationandproduction,aswellas reducedproduction levelsduetoCOVID-19andplantturnaroundactivities.

AdjustedFundsFlow

During the three and sixmonths ended June 30, 2020, adjusted funds flow decreased compared to the sameperiods of 2019, primarily driven by the Corporation's reduced cash operating netback which was significantlyimpacted by a sharp decline in global crude oil prices, partially offset by realized gains on commodity riskmanagement contracts. The decrease in adjusted funds flow was also partially mitigated by ongoing costreductionstogeneralandadministrativeexpenseandcashinterestcosts.

OnMay4,2020,theCorporationsuspendedfullyear2020productionguidanceduetotheglobalcrudeoilpriceenvironment at that time which was experiencing multi-decade lows coupled with extreme levels of volatilitydrivenbytheunprecedenteddemandshockduetoCOVID-19.

Since that time, crudeoil price levels and volatility have stabilized to a level that allows theCorporation to re-instatefullyearproductionguidancewhichisnowtargetedat78,000–80,000bbls/d.Comparedtotheoriginalguidanceof94,000–97,000bbls/dannouncedNovember21,2019,approximatelyhalfofthedifferenceisduetotheimpactofthescheduled70-daymajorturnaroundattheChristinaLakePhase1and2facilitiesannouncedMay4, 2020. The remainder of the difference results from a combination of previously disclosed weather-relatedproduction impacts in the first quarter of 2020, voluntary price-related production curtailments in the secondquarter of 2020 and the impact of reduced well capital in 2020, which made up approximately 75% of thecombined$100millionreductionincapitalspendingannouncedonMarch10andMay4of2020.
