Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - February 25, 2026) - Baytex Energy Corp. (TSX: BTE) (NYSE: BTE) will release its fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial and operating results after the close of markets on Wednesday March 4, 2026. A conference call and webcast will be held on Thursday March 5, 2026 to discuss the results: Date: Thursday March 5, 2026 Time: 9:00 a.m.

Baytex Energy sold its Eagle Ford acreage at a loss. The transaction, along with deleveraging, has been well received by the market. Advances in heavy oil technology have made BTE's Clearwater basin operations notably profitable even (possibly) during downturns.

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - February 2, 2026) - Baytex Energy Corp. (TSX: BTE) (NYSE: BTE) ("Baytex") is pleased to announce its year-end 2025 reserves and provide an operations update (all amounts in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted). Our 2025 performance was highlighted by the strategic divestiture of our U.S. assets, resulting in a significantly strengthened financial position and sharpened focus on our high-return Canadian energy platform.

Baytex (BTE) has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), reflecting growing optimism about the company's earnings prospects. This might drive the stock higher in the near term.

BTE, BHP, IOT, GTLB and CMI have been added to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) List on December 31st, 2025.

MMS, VIRT and BTE made it to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) value stocks list on December 31, 2025.

Baytex Energy Corp. is divesting its U.S. operations to become a wholly Canadian company. BTE's post-divestiture budget assumes a C$52/bbl breakeven. Profitability hinges on heavy oil price discounts to WTI.

Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.

BTE's streamlined strategy, rising cash flows, and earnings momentum make it stand out against steady CNQ heading into 2026.
