MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Management's discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) is dated May 11, 2021 and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2021 and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a full understanding of the financial position and results of operations of Crescent Point Energy Corp. (the “Company” or “Crescent Point”).
The unaudited consolidated financial statements and comparative information for the period ended March 31, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), specifically International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
STRUCTURE OF THE BUSINESS
The principal undertaking of Crescent Point is to carry on the business of acquiring, developing and holding interests in petroleum and natural gas properties and assets related thereto through a general partnership and wholly owned subsidiaries. Amounts in this report are in Canadian dollars unless noted otherwise. References to “US$” are to United States (“U.S.”) dollars.
Overview
The Company’s first quarter results were positively impacted by the continued recovery in benchmark oil prices and narrower differentials. The Company reported first quarter net income of $21.7 million and adjusted net earnings of $95.1 million, compared to a net loss of $2.32 billion and adjusted net earnings of $48.7 million in the first quarter of 2020. Net debt was also reduced by $135.8 million through excess cash flow generated during the quarter, resulting in net debt of $2.01 billion at March 31, 2021.
Production volumes totaled 119,384 boe/d during the quarter, down 16 percent from 141,330 boe/d during the first quarter of 2020. With the collapse in commodity prices in 2020, the Company significantly reduced its capital development program which has resulted in lower production volumes. In the first quarter of 2021, development capital spending totaled $119.2 million with the drilling of 65 (64.6 net) wells, targeted towards the Company’s major operating areas.
The Company remained active with its hedging portfolio during the quarter, protecting against commodity price volatility. As of the date of this report, the Company has over 40 percent of its oil and liquids production, net of royalty interest, hedged through the remainder of 2021.
Subsequent to the quarter, the Company successfully closed the acquisition of Kaybob Duvernay assets in Alberta from Shell Canada Energy on April 1, 2021, as previously announced. The acquisition includes production of approximately 30,000 boe/d, weighted 65 percent towards condensate and liquids, and approximately 500 net sections of land in the Kaybob area. The transaction is in line with the Company’s core principles and is also expected to enhance the Company’s free cash flow profile. Crescent Point remains committed to strengthening its balance sheet and sustainability in 2021 and will also continue to evaluate opportunities to further enhance its asset portfolio through strategic acquisitions and dispositions.

Total production averaged 119,384 boe/d during the first quarter of 2021 compared to 141,330 boe/d in the first quarter of 2020. The 16 percent decrease was primarily due to a significantly reduced development capital program in response to the global pandemic and the collapse in crude oil prices in 2020.

Crude oil prices continued to rebound in the first quarter with improving fundamentals, market optimism generated by COVID-19 vaccinations and the continuation of coordinated supply cuts by OPEC. The US$ WTI benchmark price increased 25 percent on average during the first quarter of 2021, compared to the same period in 2020.
Natural gas prices were stronger due to increased heating demand from colder winter temperatures, higher industrial demand and lower inventory levels from cuts to producer capital budgets in 2020. The growth in oil sands activity, which requires natural gas, also increased demand in Alberta to record highs in the first quarter of 2021. The AECO daily benchmark price was 53 percent higher in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.
U.S. natural gas prices were also higher on average in the first quarter of 2021 due to increased heating demand and the recovery of LNG demand which was significantly impacted in the prior year by demand losses from the COVID-19 pandemic and high global inventory levels. The NYMEX benchmark gas price was 38 higher in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

Canadian crude oil differentials narrowed in the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to increased demand from downstream refiners, and lower inventory levels in the U.S. and Canada due to industry wide production shut-ins and reduced capital activity throughout 2020.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company's average selling price for crude oil increased 32 percent from the same period in 2020, primarily due to the 25 percent increase in the US$ WTI benchmark price and a narrower corporate oil price differential. Crescent Point's corporate oil differential relative to Cdn$ WTI for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $7.99 per bbl compared to $12.73 per bbl in the first quarter of 2020.
In the first quarter of 2021, the Company's average selling price for NGLs more than doubled, from $17.28 per bbl in the first quarter of 2020 to $37.70 per bbl. The increase in average selling prices for NGLs was primarily due to the increase in US$ WTI, an increase in propane benchmark prices and stronger differentials on condensate.
The Company's average selling price for natural gas for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased 49 percent from $3.03 per mcf in the first quarter of 2020 to $4.50 per mcf, primarily as a result of the 53 percent increase in the AECO daily benchmark price.

Commodity Derivatives
Management of cash flow variability is an integral component of Crescent Point's business strategy. Crescent Point regularly monitors changing business and market conditions while executing its strategic risk management program. Crescent Point proactively manages the risk exposure inherent in movements in the price of crude oil, natural gas, interest rates, the Company's share price and the US/Cdn dollar exchange rate through the use of derivatives with investment-grade counterparties.
The Company's crude oil and natural gas derivatives are referenced to WTI and the AECO monthly index, respectively, unless otherwise noted. Crescent Point utilizes a variety of derivatives, including swaps, collars, and put options to protect against downward commodity price movements while also providing the opportunity for some upside participation during periods of rising prices. This reduces the volatility of the selling price of crude oil and natural gas production and provides a measure of stability to the Company's cash flow. See Note 17 - "Financial Instruments and Derivatives" in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2021 for additional information on the Company's derivatives.

The average crude oil volumes hedged and average barrels of oil equivalent hedged do not include the hedged volumes related to financial price differential contracts.
(2)GJ/d is defined as gigajoules per day.
The Company recorded a $58.8 million realized derivative loss for crude oil for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a realized derivative gain of $56.3 million in the first quarter of 2020. The realized derivative loss in the first quarter of 2021 was largely attributable to the increase in the Cdn$ WTI benchmark price and the decrease in the Company's average derivative crude oil price. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company's average derivative crude oil price decreased by $10.47 per bbl, from $72.17 per bbl in the first quarter of 2020 to $61.70 per bbl in the first quarter of 2021.
Crescent Point's realized derivative loss for gas was $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 due to the higher average AECO monthly index price compared to the Company's average derivative gas price of $2.38 per GJ.

The decrease was primarily attributable to lower employee costs and lower professional fees from cost reduction initiatives, partially offset by lower overhead recoveries resulting from lower production and capital spending levels.
On a per boe basis, G&A expenses decreased 8 percent in the first quarter of 2021 due to the reduction in total G&A discussed above, partially offset by a decrease in production volumes.

Interest expense on long-term debt decreased 12 percent in the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to lower debt balances with the Company's ongoing focus on balance sheet strength.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized a $0.1 million unrealized gain on interest rate derivatives compared to $17.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. The unrealized gain in the first quarter of 2021 was primarily due to a higher floating interest rate on the Company's interest derivative contracts at March 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020, partially offset by the impact of the stronger Canadian dollar at March 31, 2021 as compared to December 31, 2020 on the interest payments related to the Company's cross currency swaps ("CCS").
Crescent Point manages its interest rate exposure through a combination of interest rate swaps and a debt portfolio including short-term floating rate bank debt and long-term fixed rate senior guaranteed notes. At March 31, 2021, approximately 100 percent of the Company's long-term debt, including the impact of related derivatives, had fixed interest rates.

Crescent Point has US dollar denominated debt, including short-term London Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") loans under its bank credit facilities and US dollar senior guaranteed notes. The Company hedges its foreign exchange exposure using a combination of CCS and foreign exchange swaps. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company realized a $13.6 million loss on CCS related to LIBOR loan maturities.
The Company records foreign exchange gains or losses on the period end translation of US dollar long-term debt and related accrued interest. Crescent Point recorded a foreign exchange gain of $25.5 million on the translation of US dollar long-term debt and accrued interest in the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a foreign exchange loss of $197.9 million in the first quarter of 2020. The foreign exchange gain from the translation of US dollar long-term debt and accrued interest in the first quarter of 2021 was attributable to a stronger Canadian dollar at March 31, 2021 as compared to December 31, 2020.
The Company recognized an unrealized loss on foreign exchange derivatives of $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to an unrealized gain of $142.1 million in the same period of 2020. The unrealized loss in the first quarter of 2021 reflects the impact of the stronger forward Canadian dollar at March 31, 2021 as compared to December 31, 2020 on the Company's CCS.

The Company recorded share-based compensation ("SBC") costs of $31.1 million in the first quarter of 2021 compared to a recovery of $8.4 million in the first quarter of 2020. The higher SBC costs in the first quarter of 2021 primarily relates to an increase in the fair value of cash-settled plans as a result of the increase in the Company's share price.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized an unrealized gain of $10.5 million on equity derivative contracts, primarily due to the increase in the Company's share price at March 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020. The Company also recognized a realized gain of $9.7 million on an equity derivative contract which matured during the quarter.

The 30 percent decrease in the DD&A rate per boe in the first quarter of 2021 was primarily due to the impairment expense booked in the first quarter of 2020, which reduced the value of the Company's property, plant and equipment ("PP&E").
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded impairment expense of $3.56 billion on its development and production assets primarily due to the significant decrease in forecast benchmark commodity prices.

The deferred tax recovery in 2020 primarily relates to the pre-tax loss resulting from the impairment expense recognized, partially offset by the change in estimate for future usable tax pools.

Cash flow from operating activities decreased from $329.3 million in the first quarter of 2020 to $303.7 million in the first quarter of 2021. Changes in cash flow from operating activities were due to fluctuations in adjusted funds flow from operations ("FFO"), working capital, decommissioning expenditures and transaction costs.

The Company's adjusted FFO decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2021 to $262.7 million, compared to $309.5 million in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease is primarily a result of the realized commodity derivative loss and the lower production volumes, partially offset by a higher operating netback.
Exhibit 16

In the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company reported net income of $21.7 million compared to a net loss of $2.32 billion in the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of the decrease in impairment expense and the unrealized foreign exchange gain on long-term debt, partially offset by fluctuations in deferred taxes, the unrealized derivative loss, other loss and lower adjusted FFO. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company recorded net income per share - diluted of $0.04 compared to a net loss per share - diluted of $4.40 in the first quarter of 2020.

The Company's adjusted net earnings from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $95.1 million compared to $48.7 million in the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to the decrease in depletion, partially offset by the decrease in adjusted FFO and fluctuations in deferred taxes. Adjusted net earnings from operations per share - diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased to $0.18 from $0.09 in the first quarter of 2020.

Over the past eight quarters, the Company's oil and gas sales have fluctuated due to volatility in the Cdn$ WTI benchmark price, changes in production and fluctuations in corporate oil price differentials. The Company's production has fluctuated due to changes in its development capital spending levels, dispositions, voluntary shut-ins and natural declines.
Net income (loss) has fluctuated primarily due to changes in adjusted funds flow from operations, unrealized derivative gains and losses, which fluctuate with the changes in forward market prices and foreign exchange rates, PP&E impairments recorded in the first quarter of 2020 and fourth quarter of 2019, gains and losses on capital dispositions, and fluctuations in deferred tax expense (recovery).
Adjusted net earnings (loss) from operations has fluctuated over the past eight quarters primarily due to changes in adjusted funds flow from operations, depletion and share-based compensation expense along with associated fluctuations in deferred tax expense (recovery).
Capital expenditures have also fluctuated throughout this period due to the timing of acquisitions, dispositions and the Company's development capital program.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Throughout this MD&A, the Company uses the terms “operating netback”, “netback”, “adjusted funds flow from operations”, "excess cash flow", “adjusted net earnings from operations”, “adjusted net earnings from operations per share”, “adjusted net earnings from operations per share - diluted”, “net debt”, “net debt to adjusted funds flow from operations”, “market capitalization” and “enterprise value”. These terms do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures presented by other issuers.
Operating netback is calculated on a per boe basis as oil and gas sales, less royalties, operating and transportation expenses. Netback is calculated on a per boe basis as operating netback plus realized commodity derivative gains and losses. Operating netback and netback are common metrics used in the oil and gas industry and are used by management to measure operating results on a per boe basis to better analyze performance against prior periods on a comparable basis. The calculations of operating netback and netback are shown in the Results of Operations section in this MD&A.
Adjusted funds flow from operations is calculated based on cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital, transaction costs and decommissioning expenditures funded by the Company. Transaction costs are excluded as they vary based on the Company's acquisition and disposition activity and to ensure that this metric is more comparable between periods. Decommissioning expenditures are discretionary and are excluded as they may vary based on the stage of the Company's assets and operating areas. Management utilizes adjusted funds flow from operations as a key measure to assess the ability of the Company to finance dividends, operating activities, capital expenditures and debt repayments. Adjusted funds flow from operations as presented is not intended to represent cash flow from operating activities, net earnings or other measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS. Excess cash flow is defined as adjusted funds flow from operations less capital expenditures, payments on lease liability, asset retirement obligations, dividends and other cash items (excluding net acquisitions and dispositions). Management utilizes excess cash flow as key measures to assess the ability of the Company to finance dividends, potential share repurchases, debt repayments and returns-based growth.
The following table reconciles cash flow from operating activities to adjusted funds flow from operations:

Adjusted net earnings from operations is calculated based on net income before amortization of exploration and evaluation ("E&E") undeveloped land, impairment or impairment recoveries, unrealized derivative gains or losses, unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss on translation of hedged US dollar long-term debt, unrealized gains or losses on long-term investments, gains or losses on the sale of long-term investments and gains or losses on capital acquisitions and dispositions. Adjusted net earnings from operations per share and adjusted net earnings from operations per share - diluted are calculated as adjusted net earnings from operations divided by the number of weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding, respectively. Management utilizes adjusted net earnings from operations to present a measure of financial performance that is more comparable between periods. Adjusted net earnings from operations as presented is not intended to represent net earnings or other measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Net debt to adjusted funds flow from operations is calculated as the period end net debt divided by the sum of adjusted funds flow from operations for the trailing four quarters. The ratio of net debt to adjusted funds flow from operations is used by management to measure the Company's overall debt position and to measure the strength of the Company's balance sheet. Crescent Point monitors this ratio and uses this as a key measure in making decisions regarding financing, capital spending and dividend levels.
Market capitalization is calculated by applying the period end closing share trading price to the number of shares outstanding. Market capitalization is an indication of equity valuation. Refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section in this MD&A for further information.
Enterprise value is calculated as market capitalization plus net debt. Management uses enterprise value to assess the valuation of the Company. Refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section in this MD&A for further information.
Management believes the presentation of the Non-GAAP measures above provide useful information to investors and shareholders as the measures provide increased transparency and the ability to better analyze performance against prior periods on a comparable basis.

Therefore, Crescent Point's actual results, performance or achievement could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking estimates and if such actual results, performance or achievements transpire or occur, or if any of them do so, there can be no certainty as to what benefits or detriments Crescent Point will derive therefrom.
Crude oil and natural gas information is provided in accordance with the United States Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Topic 932 - "Extractive Activities - Oil and Gas" and where applicable, financial information is prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").
For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016 the Company filed its reserves information under National Instrument 51-101 - "Standards of Disclosure of Oil and Gas Activities" (NI 51-101), which prescribes the standards for the preparation and disclosure of reserves and related information for companies listed in Canada.
There are significant differences to the type of volumes disclosed and the basis from which the volumes are economically determined under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements and NI 51-101. The SEC requires disclosure of net reserves, after royalties, using trailing 12-month average prices and current costs; whereas NI 51-101 requires Company gross reserves, before royalties, using forecast pricing and costs. Therefore the difference between the reported numbers under the two disclosure standards can be material.
Barrels of oil equivalent (“boe”) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf : 1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of oil, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value. Oil and gas metrics such as operating netback and netback do not have standardized meaning and as such may not be reliable, and should not be used to make comparisons.
The Company retained McDaniel & Associates Consultants Ltd. ("McDaniel") to evaluate the reserves associated with the Kaybob Duvernay assets and prepare the related independent evaluators report (the "McDaniel Report").
The statement of reserves data and other oil and gas information, associated with the Kaybob Duvernay assets, set forth in this MD&A is dated February 11, 2021. The effective date of the reserves information provided for the Kaybob Duvernay assets herein is December 31, 2020, unless otherwise indicated, and the preparation date is February 11, 2021. McDaniel prepared the McDaniel Report in accordance with the standards contained in NI 51-101 and the COGE Handbook that were in effect at the relevant time. Production of approximately 30,000 boe/d associated with the Kaybob Duvernay assets consists of 57% condensate, 8% NGL and 35% shale gas. NI 51-101 includes condensate within the product type of natural gas liquids. The Company has disclosed condensate separately from other natural gas liquids in this MD&A since the price of condensate as compared to other natural gas liquids is currently significantly higher and the Company believes that presenting the two commodities separately provides a more accurate description of its operations and results therefrom.
The Company’s aggregate average production for the past eight quarters and the references to “natural gas” and “crude oil”, reported in this MD&A consist of the following product types, as defined in NI 51-101 and using a conversion ratio of 6 Mcf : 1 Bbl where applicable:
