Peyto Exploration & Development Corp. (TSX:PEY) ("Peyto" or the "Company") is
pleased to report operating and financial results for the fourth quarter and the
2013 fiscal year which culminate 15 years of success in the Canadian Energy
Industry. Peyto set new production and reserves per share records in 2013 while
delivering a 76% operating margin1 and a 25% profit margin2. A 10% return on
capital and a 12% return on equity were achieved in 2013 along with the
following Q4 and annual highlights:




--  Production per share up 26%. Fourth quarter production was up 35%, also
    35% per share, from 299 MMcfe/d (49,754 boe/d) in Q4 2012 to 404 MMcfe/d
    (67,296 boe/d) in Q4 2013. Annual production increased 33%, or 26% per
    share, from 267 MMcfe/d in 2012 to 356 MMcfe/d in 2013. 
    
--  Reserves per share up 19%. Proved Producing ("PP"), Total Proved ("TP")
    and Proved plus Probable Additional ("P+P") reserves increased 12%, 10%,
    and 19% (the same per share) to 1.1, 1.8, and 2.8 TCFe, respectively. 
    
--  Maintained industry leading total cash costs. Royalties, operating
    costs, transportation, G&A and interest expense totaled $1.06/MCFe
    ($6.36/boe) in both Q4 and on average in 2013, consistent with
    $1.05/MCFe on average in 2012. 
    
--  Funds from operations per share up 34%. Generated $438 million in Funds
    from Operations ("FFO") in 2013, or $2.94/share, up 34% from $2.19/share
    in 2012. Q4 FFO per share was up 35% from $0.62 to $0.84. 
    
--  Organic capital investment up 28%. Invested a record $578 million to
    build 38,400 boe/d at a cost of $15,100/boe/d in 2013, up 28% from the
    $452 million of organic capital spent in 2012. 
    
--  P+P FD&A was half the field netback. All in FD&A cost for PP, TP and P+P
    reserves was $2.35/MCFe, $2.23/MCFe and $1.86/MCFe ($11.16/boe),
    respectively, including changes in Future Development Capital ("FDC"),
    while the average field netback was $3.65/MCFe ($21.89/boe). 
    
--  NAV per share of $38. Net Asset Value ("NAV") or the Net Present Value
    per share, debt adjusted (discounted at 5%) of the P+P reserves was
    $23/share of developed reserves and $15/share of undeveloped reserves. 
    
--  Earnings per share up 43% and dividends per share up 22%. A total of
    $143 million in earnings were generated in 2013 ($0.96/share), and $131
    million in dividends were paid to shareholders ($0.88/share). Cumulative
    dividend/distribution payments made by Peyto to date total $1.47 Billion
    ($13.19/share). 



2013 in Review

The year 2013 marked Peyto's 15th year in the business of profitably finding,
developing, and producing natural gas in Alberta's Deep Basin. Peyto invested a
record $578 million into drilling and completing 99 new gas wells, building two
new gas plants at Oldman North and Brazeau River, expanding a third plant at
Swanson, acquiring 49 sections of new multi-zone mineral rights and purchasing
over 170 square miles of 3D seismic. For every well drilled, two new drilling
locations were recognized in Peyto's reserve report further expanding the
Company's NAV. A 42% increase in annual funds from operations was primarily the
result of the 33% growth in production, as realized commodity prices were only
up 5%. A 52% increase in earnings was commensurate with the increase in FFO,
which allowed for a 33% increase in the monthly dividend mid-way through the
year. The solid returns generated with the annual capital program drove a 10%
return on capital and 12% return on equity. Including dividends, investors
realized a 45% return3 from year end 2012 to year end 2013.




1.  Operating Margin is defined as Funds from Operations divided by Revenue
    before Royalties but including realized hedging gains (losses). 
2.  Profit Margin is defined as Net Earnings for the year divided by Revenue
    before Royalties but including realized hedging gains (losses). 
3.  Total return is calculated using the December 31, 2012 share price of
    $22.99 and December 31, 2013 share price of $32.51, along with
    $0.88/share of dividend. 



Natural gas volumes recorded in thousand cubic feet (mcf) are converted to
barrels of oil equivalent (boe) using the ratio of six (6) thousand cubic feet
to one (1) barrel of oil (bbl). Natural gas liquids and oil volumes in barrel of
oil (bbl) are converted to thousand cubic feet equivalent (mcfe) using a ratio
of one (1) barrel of oil to six (6) thousand cubic feet. This could be
misleading if used in isolation as it is based on an energy equivalency
conversion method primarily applied at the burner tip and does not represent a
value equivalency at the wellhead.

(1) Funds from operations - Management uses funds from operations to analyze the
operating performance of its energy assets. In order to facilitate comparative
analysis, funds from operations is defined throughout this report as earnings
before performance based compensation, non-cash and non-recurring expenses.
Management believes that funds from operations is an important parameter to
measure the value of an asset when combined with reserve life. Funds from
operations is not a measure recognized by Canadian generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP") and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP.
Therefore, funds from operations, as defined by Peyto, may not be comparable to
similar measures presented by other issuers, and investors are cautioned that
funds from operations should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings,
cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial performance
calculated in accordance with GAAP. Funds from operations cannot be assured and
future distributions may vary.


Historical Milestones

Peyto Exploration & Development Corp. was founded in October 1998 with the sole
purpose of investing shareholder capital into oil and gas development for
maximum possible return. Now, 15 years later, that goal remains exactly the
same. Only now, there are 15 years of results against which that objective can
be measured. In aggregate, approximately $3.5 billion has been invested, mostly
in the drilling of nearly 1,000 natural gas wells in Alberta's Deep Basin, and
in the construction of over 1,100 km of pipelines and 7 gas processing
facilities. These investments have generated $4.4 billion in revenue, paid $675
million in royalties to Albertans, delivered $3.1 billion in funds from
operations and funded $1.5 billion in distributions and dividend payments to
shareholders. On top of that, shareholders today own assets independently valued
at $6.6 billion1, 60% of which are already developed. The value of a share of
Peyto, including dividends and distributions, has compounded at 53% annually
over its history. It is fair to say that the Peyto strategy has been successful
in achieving its objective. 


In simple terms, Peyto is a profitable business - finding, developing and
producing for less than what it receives in sales. The profitability of the
business model is illustrated in the following table:

The predictability and repeatability of annual performance is a testament to the
success of the Peyto's strategy and the execution of its business plan. After 15
years, there appears to be no reason to change.


Capital Expenditures

Peyto executed its largest ever drilling program in 2013, investing $254 million
to drill 99 gross (93.4 net) horizontal gas wells, $152 million on their
multi-stage fracture completions, and $48.3 million in wellsite equipment and
pipelines to connect them to Company owned gathering systems. Drilling and
completion costs per meter of wellbore have been decreasing, despite a 3% per
year annual inflation in service costs, as execution has continued to improve.
The table below outlines the past four years of horizontal drilling and
completion costs.

The Company invested $112 million in 2013 to build new gas plants at Oldman
North (30 MMcf/d) and Brazeau River (20 MMcf/d), as well as expand the existing
Swanson gas plant (+30 MMcf/d), to accommodate increased production volumes. A
total of $6.4 million was invested in 49.25 sections of new crown lands
($202/acre) and $2.5 million on tuck-in acquisitions. In addition, 173 km of 2D
and 448 km2 of 3D seismic was acquired for $3 million, for total capital
expenditures of $578 million.


The following table summarizes the capital investments for the fourth quarter
and 2013 year.

Reserves

Peyto was successful growing reserves and values in all categories in 2013,
despite the year over year reduction in commodity price forecasts. The following
table illustrates the change in reserve volumes and Net Present Value ("NPV") of
future cash flows, discounted at 5%, before income tax and using forecast

+Per share reserves are adjusted for changes in net debt by converting debt 
 to equity using the Dec 31 share price of $22.99 for 2012 and share price  
 of $32.51 for 2013. Net Present Values are adjusted for debt by subtracting
 net debt from the value prior to calculating per share amounts.            
                                                                            
Note: based on the InSite Petroleum Consultants ("InSite") report effective 
 December 31, 2013.The InSite price forecast is available at                
 www.insitepc.com. For more information on Peyto's reserves, refer to the   
 Press Releases dated February 12, 2014 and February 14, 2013 announcing the
 Year End Reserve Report which is available on the website at               
 http://www.peyto.com. The complete statement of reserves data and required 
 reporting in compliance with NI 51-101 will be included in Peyto's Annual  
 Information Form to be released in March 2014.                             



Value Creation/Reconciliation

In order to measure the success of all of the capital invested in 2013, it is
necessary to quantify the total amount of value added during the year and
compare that to the total amount of capital invested. The independent engineers
have run last year's reserve evaluation with this year's price forecast to
remove the change in value attributable to both commodity prices and changing
royalties. This approach isolates the value created by the Peyto team from the
value created (or lost) by those changes outside of their control (ie. commodity
prices). Since the capital investments in 2013 were funded from a combination of
cash flow, debt and equity, it is necessary to know the change in debt and the
change in shares outstanding to see if the change in value is truly accretive to
shareholders.


At year end 2013, Peyto's estimated net debt had increased by $284.1 million to
$946.5 million while the number of shares outstanding had increased by 0.276
million shares to 148.949 million shares. The change in debt includes all of the
capital expenditures, as well as any acquisitions, and the total fixed and
performance based compensation paid out for the year. 


Based on this reconciliation of changes in BT NPV, the Peyto team was able to
create $867 million of Proved Producing, $1.129 billion of Total Proven, and
$2.307 billion of Proved plus Probable Additional undiscounted reserve value,
with $578 million of capital investment. The ratio of capital expenditures to
value creation is what Peyto refers to as the NPV recycle ratio, which is simply
the undiscounted value addition, resulting from the capital program, divided by
the capital investment. For 2013, the Proved Producing NPV recycle ratio is 1.5.
This means for each dollar invested, the Peyto team was able to create 1.5 new
dollars of Proved Producing reserve value. The average Proved Producing NPV
Recycle Ratio over the last 5 years is 2.9 times for undiscounted future values
or 2.0 times for future values discounted at 10%. 


The historic NPV recycle ratios are presented in the following table.

(i)NPV0 (net present value) recycle ratio is calculated by dividing the
undiscounted NPV of reserves added in the year by the total capital cost for the
period (eg. Proved Producing ($867/$578) = 1.5).


Performance Measures

There are a number of performance measures that are used in the oil and gas
industry in an attempt to evaluate how profitably capital has been invested.
Peyto believes that the value analysis and reconciliation presented above is the
best determination of profitability as it compares the value of what was created
relative to what was invested. This is because the NPV of an oil and gas asset
takes into consideration the reserves, the production forecast, the future
royalties and operating costs, future capital and the current commodity price
outlook.


The following table highlights additional annual performance ratios both before
and after the implementation of horizontal wells in late 2009. These can be used
for comparative purposes, but it is cautioned that on their own they do not
measure investment success.

--  FD&A (finding, development and acquisition) costs are used as a measure
    of capital efficiency and are calculated by dividing the capital costs
    for the period, including the change in undiscounted future development
    capital ("FDC"), by the change in the reserves, incorporating revisions
    and production, for the same period (eg. Total Proved
    ($578.0+$87.9)/(304.494-276.419+21.649) = $2.23/mcfe or $13.39/boe). 
    
--  The reserve life index (RLI) is calculated by dividing the reserves (in
    boes) in each category by the annualized average production rate in
    boe/year (eg. Proved Producing 176,882/(67.296x365) = 7.2). Peyto
    believes that the most accurate way to evaluate the current reserve life
    is by dividing the proved developed producing reserves by the actual
    fourth quarter average production. In Peyto's opinion, for comparative
    purposes, the proved developed producing reserve life provides the best
    measure of sustainability. 
    
--  The Recycle Ratio is calculated by dividing the field netback per MCFe,
    before hedging, by the FD&A costs for the period (eg. Proved Producing
    (($21.23)/$14.08=1.5). The recycle ratio is comparing the netback from
    existing reserves to the cost of finding new reserves and may not
    accurately indicate investment success unless the replacement reserves
    are of equivalent quality as the produced reserves. 
    
--  The reserve replacement ratio is determined by dividing the yearly
    change in reserves before production by the actual annual production for
    the year (eg. Total Proved ((176.882-157.491+21.649)/21.649) = 190%). 



Quarterly Review

Peyto was very active in the fourth quarter of 2013, drilling and connecting new
natural gas wells and commissioning new processing facilities, just as natural
gas prices improved. A total of 21 gross (20.1 net) wells were drilled, 31 gross
(28.3 net) wells completed and 32 gross (29.5 net) wells equipped and brought on
production. In total, $154.2 million of capital was invested in the quarter, or
27% of the annual capital program, with $59.8 million spent on drilling, $46.8
million on completions, $12.4 million on pipelines, $33.4 million on facilities
and $1.8 million on lands and seismic. 


Production grew over 25%, from 59,000 boe/d at the start of the fourth quarter,
to 75,000 boe/d by the end of the quarter, averaging 67,296 boe/d, up 35% over
Q4 2012. Alberta daily natural gas prices climbed 45% from $2.31/GJ in the
previous quarter to $3.35/GJ in Q4 2013, just as production rose. Fourth quarter
2013 prices were 4% higher than the same period in 2012. Peyto's realized price
for natural gas in Q4 2013 was $3.43/mcf, prior to a $0.16/mcf hedging gain,
while it's realized liquids price was $71.98/bbl, prior to a $2.14/bbl hedging
loss, yielding a combined revenue stream of $4.43/mcfe. This net sales price was
1% higher than same period a year ago.


Total cash costs for Q4 2013 of $1.06/mcfe included royalties of $0.28/mcfe,
operating costs of $0.35/mcfe, transportation of $0.13/mcfe, G&A of $0.06/mcfe
and interest of $0.24/mcfe. Quarterly cash costs were down slightly from
$1.10/mcfe in Q4 2012 but in line with the previous year's average of
$1.05/mcfe.


Peyto generated total funds from operations of $125 million in the quarter, or
$3.37/mcfe, equating to a 76% operating margin. DD&A charges of $1.77/mcfe, as
well as a provision for current and future performance based compensation and
tax, reduced FFO to earnings of $1.02/mcfe, or a 23% profit margin, which funded
the $0.96/mcfe dividend to shareholders.


Marketing

The current natural gas price outlook is for much improved prices over the next
12 months as cold winter weather has reduced storage volumes to below seasonal
levels. The AECO Monthly strip for the next 12 months is currently trading at
close to $4.70/GJ, almost 50% higher than the previous 12 months. Beyond that,
prices are expected to return to previous levels as low cost supplies, reversal
of coal-to-gas switching and more seasonal weather patterns return storage to
normal levels. The AECO Monthly strip for the second year out is currently
priced at approximately $3.80/GJ.


Peyto uses a hedging strategy that is designed to smooth out the short term
fluctuations in the price of natural gas and NGLs through future sales in order
to provide security of price for capital planning purposes. This is done by
selling approximately 35% of the total natural gas production (inclusive of
Crown Royalty volumes) on the daily and monthly spot markets while the balance
(approximately 65%) is pre-sold or hedged. These hedges are meant to be
methodical and consistent and to avoid speculation. In general, this approach
will show hedging losses when short term prices climb and hedging gains when
short term prices fall. Peyto generally sells its contracts in either the 7
month summer or the 5 month winter season. In order to minimize counterparty
risk, these marketing contracts are all with financial institutions that are
also members of Peyto's banking syndicate. Peyto has deployed this strategy for
over a decade now, which has resulted in $260 million in cumulative gains. Over
the long run, however, Peyto expects to break even on forward sales, having
achieved price security for little to no cost.


For 2013, Peyto realized a natural gas price of $3.10/GJ or $3.54/Mcf, for its
natural gas sales. This was a combination of 47% being sold in the daily or
monthly spot market, which averaged $2.98/GJ, and 53% having been pre-sold at an
average hedged price of $3.20/GJ. The following table summarizes the remaining
hedged volumes for the upcoming years effective March 5, 2014:

As illustrated in the following table, Peyto's unhedged annual realized NGL
prices(1) were approximately 3% lower on a year over year basis, and represented
77% of the $93.13/bbl average Edmonton par oil price in 2013, down from 86% the
previous year. Lower relative Pentane and Butane prices and increased
transportation charges contributed to the increased offset to light oil prices.

Peyto's hedging practice with respect to propane is similar to that for natural
gas. Effective March 5, 2014, Peyto had a total of 212,000 bbls of Propane
forward sold for the remainder of 2014 at $USD 40.74/bbl.


Activity Update

Drilling activity for the first quarter of 2014 continues to be robust. Peyto is
currently running a 9 rig drilling program extending across the Greater Sundance
area, through Ansell and down to Brazeau River. The program is targeting ongoing
development of the Bluesky, Wilrich, Falher, Notikewin, and Cardium formations.
In addition to the drilling, a 27 km pipeline was recently completed connecting
a new growth area to Peyto's existing Wildhay Gas Plant. The new pipeline
corridor will provide the necessary infrastructure for approximately 7 to 10
wells that will be drilled in that area over the balance of 2014.


Production is currently between 73,000 and 75,000 boe/d with the exception of a
four day period in mid-January during which a powerful windstorm unexpectedly
knocked out power in the Greater Sundance area for 40 hours and caused the shut
in of approximately 60,000 boe/d (655 boe/d on average for the quarter).


Thus far in the quarter, 19 gross (18.1 net) new wells have been spud with 13
gross (13 net) wells having been completed and brought onstream. The Company is
planning for a continuation of drilling and completion activity over the
traditional April to mid-June breakup period this year. The level and progress
of this planned activity will be weather and access dependent.


Facility preparations are well underway for continued expansion at key gas
plants. The new Oldman North Gas Plant was expanded in late February from 30 to
50 MMcf/d with the addition of a third compressor. This facility will be further
expanded to 80 MMcf/d by the fall. The installation of a refrigeration module
and third compressor at the Brazeau Plant is in the final stages which will take
that facility to 30 MMcf/d of capacity. One additional compressor is expected
after breakup for total Brazeau capacity of 40 MMcf/d. Beyond that, additional
compressors and refrigeration modules are in the fabrication stage for a late
summer to early fall installation at the Oldman North, Wildhay and Swanson
facilities which will bring total capacity additions for the year to above 100
MMcf/d.


2014 Outlook

The year 2014 looks to be another record breaking year for Peyto with continued
profitable growth. As always, the primary focus is on maximizing returns, with
profitable growth being the by-product of that success. Peyto's counter-cyclical
investment strategy over the past four years, that has resulted in more than a
tripling of production, should pay off in 2014 as natural gas prices are
forecast to be 50% higher than 2013. These higher prices, however, will require
even greater vigilance with respect to cost control as it is in these
environments when inflation of service costs can begin to erode future returns.
This focus on costs has been at the heart of Peyto's strategy over the past 15
years and will continue to be a foundation of the Company's success in the
future.


With a firm belief in the future of natural gas and strengthened with a decade
and a half of experience, Peyto remains well positioned to lead the industry as
one of the lowest cost, most efficient and most profitable energy companies.

As at December 31, 2013 and 2012                                            
(Amounts in $thousands, except as otherwise noted)                          



1. Nature of operations 

Peyto Exploration & Development Corp. ("Peyto" or the "Company") is a Calgary
based oil and natural gas company. Peyto conducts exploration, development and
production activities in Canada. Peyto is incorporated and domiciled in the
Province of Alberta, Canada. The address of its registered office is 1500, 250 -
2nd Street SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2P 0C1.


Effective December 31, 2012, Peyto completed an amalgamation with its
wholly-owned subsidiary Open Range Energy Corp. ("Open Range") pursuant to
section 184(1) of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta). Following the
amalgamation, Peyto does not have any subsidiaries.


These financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the
Board of Directors of Peyto on March 4, 2014.


2. Basis of presentation 

These financial statements ("financial statements") as at and for the years
ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 represent the Company's results
and financial position in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards ("IFRS"). 


a. Summary of significant accounting policies 

The precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon
future events and the preparation of periodic financial statements necessarily
involves the use of estimates and approximations. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates. The financial statements have, in
management's opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of
materiality and within the framework of the Company's basis of presentation as
disclosed. 


b. Significant accounting estimates and judgements 

The timely preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS
requires that management make estimates and assumptions and use judgment
regarding the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Such estimates
primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the
financial statements. Accordingly, actual results may differ from estimated
amounts as future confirming events occur.


Amounts recorded for depreciation, depletion and amortization, decommissioning
costs, reserve based bonus and obligations and amounts used for impairment
calculations are based on estimates of gross proved plus probable reserves and
future costs required to develop those reserves. By their nature, these
estimates of reserves, including the estimates of future prices and costs, and
the related future cash flows are subject to measurement uncertainty, and the
impact in the financial statements of future periods could be material.


The determination of CGUs requires judgment in defining a group of assets that
generate cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from
other assets or groups of assets. CGUs are determined by, shared infrastructure,
commodity type, similar exposure to market risks and materiality. 


The amount of compensation expense accrued for future performance based
compensation arrangements are subject to management's best estimate of whether
or not the performance criteria will be met and what the ultimate payout amount
to be paid out.


Tax interpretations, regulations and legislation in the various jurisdictions in
which the Company operates are subject to change. As such, income taxes are
subject to measurement uncertainty.


c. Recent Accounting Pronouncement 

Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing
standards were issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) or
International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) that are
mandatory for fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013 or later periods. The
affected standards are consistent with those disclosed in Peyto's financial
statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. 


Peyto adopted the following standards on January 1, 2013:

IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements; supersedes IAS 27 "Consolidation
and Separate Financial Statements" and SIC-12 "Consolidation - Special Purpose
Entities". This standard provides a single model to be applied in control
analysis for all investees including special purpose entities. This standard
became applicable on January 1, 2013. Peyto adopted the standard on January 1,
2013, with no impact on Peyto's financial position or results of operations.


IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements; requires a venturer to classify its interest in a
joint arrangement as a joint venture or joint operation. Joint ventures will be
accounted for using the equity method of accounting, whereas joint operations
will require the venturer to recognize its share of the assets, liabilities,
revenue and expenses. This standard became applicable on January 1, 2013. Peyto
adopted the standard on January 1, 2013, with no impact on Peyto's financial
position or results of operations.


IFRS 12 - Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities; establishes disclosure
requirements for interests in other entities, such as joint arrangements,
associates, special purpose vehicles and off-balance-sheet vehicles. The
standard carries forward existing disclosure and also introduces significant
additional disclosure requirements that address the nature of, and risks
associated with, an entity's interests in other entities. This standard became
effective for Peyto on January 1, 2013. Peyto adopted the standard on January 1,
2013, with no impact on Peyto's financial position or results of operations.


IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement; defines fair value, sets out a single IFRS
framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosure about fair value
measurements. IFRS 13 applies to accounting standards that require or permit
fair value measurements or disclosure about fair value measurements (and
measurements, such as fair value less costs to sell, based on fair value or
disclosure about those measurements), except in specified circumstances. IFRS 13
became applicable on January 1, 2013. Peyto adopted the standard on January 1,
2013, with no impact on Peyto's financial position or results of operations.


d. Standards issued but not yet effective 

As of January 1, 2018, Peyto will be required to adopt IFRS 9 "Financial
Instruments", which is the result of the first phase of the IASB project to
replace IAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". The new
standard replaces the current multiple classification and measurement models for
financial assets and liabilities with a single model that has only two
classification categories: amortized cost and fair value. Portions of the
standard remain in development and the full impact of the standard on Peyto's
Financial Statements will not be known until the project is complete. 


In May 2013, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 36 "Impairment of Assets" which
reduce the circumstances in which the recoverable amount of CGUs is required to
be disclosed and clarify the disclosures required when an impairment loss has
been recognized or reversed in the period. The amendments are required to be
adopted retrospectively for fiscal years beginning January 1, 2014, with earlier
adoption permitted. These amendments will be applied by Peyto on January 1, 2014
and the adoption will only impact disclosures in the notes to the financial
statements in periods when an impairment loss or impairment reversal is
recognized.


In May 2013, the IASB issued IFRIC 21 "Levies," which was developed by the IFRS
Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). IFRIC 21 clarifies that an entity
recognizes a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as
identified by the relevant legislation, occurs. The interpretation also
clarifies that no liability should be recognized before the specified minimum
threshold to trigger that levy is reached. IFRIC 21 is required to be adopted
retrospectively for fiscal years beginning January 1, 2014, with earlier
adoption permitted. IFRIC 21 will be applied by Peyto on January 1, 2014 and the
adoption may have an impact on Peyto's accounting for production and similar
taxes, which do not meet the definition of an income tax in IAS 12 "Income
Taxes". Peyto is currently assessing and quantifying the effect on its financial
statements.


e. Presentation currency 

All amounts in these financial statements are expressed in Canadian dollars, as
this is the functional and presentation currency of the Company.


f. Cash Equivalents 

Cash equivalents include term deposits or a similar type of instrument, with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased.


g. Jointly controlled assets 

A jointly controlled asset involves joint control and offers joint ownership by
the Company and other partners of assets contributed to or acquired for the
purpose of the jointly controlled assets, without the formation of a
corporation, partnership or other entity.


The Company accounts for its share of the jointly controlled assets, any
liabilities it has incurred, its share of any liabilities jointly incurred with
its partners, income from the sale or use of its share of the joint asset's
output, together with its share of the expenses incurred by the jointly
controlled asset and any expenses it incurs in relation to its interest in the
jointly controlled asset.


h. Exploration and evaluation assets 

Pre-license costs

Costs incurred prior to obtaining the legal right to explore for hydrocarbon
resources are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. The Company has
no pre-license costs.


Exploration and evaluation costs

Once the legal right to explore has been acquired, costs directly associated
with an exploration well are capitalized as exploration and evaluation
intangible assets until the drilling of the well is complete and the results
have been evaluated. All such costs are subject to technical feasibility,
commercial viability and management review as well as review for impairment at
least once a year to confirm the continued intent to develop or otherwise
extract value from the discovery. The Company has no exploration or evaluation
assets.


i. Property, plant and equipment 

Oil and gas properties and other property, plant and equipment are stated at
cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.


The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price or construction cost,
any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset into operation, the
initial estimate of the decommissioning provision and borrowing costs for
qualifying assets. The purchase price or construction cost is the aggregate
amount paid and the fair value of any other consideration given to acquire the
asset. Costs include expenditures on the construction, installation or
completion of infrastructure such as well sites, pipelines and facilities
including activities such as drilling, completion and tie-in costs, equipment
and installation costs, associated geological and human resource costs,
including unsuccessful development or delineation wells.


Oil and natural gas asset swaps

For exchanges or parts of exchanges that involve assets, the exchange is
accounted for at fair value. Assets are then de-recognized at their current
carrying amount. 


Depletion and depreciation

Oil and natural gas properties are depleted on a unit-of-production basis over
the proved plus probable reserves. All costs related to oil and natural gas
properties (net of salvage value) and estimated costs of future development of
proved plus probable undeveloped reserves are depleted and depreciated using the
unit-of-production method based on estimated gross proved plus probable reserves
as determined by independent reservoir engineers. For purposes of the depletion
and depreciation calculation, relative volumes of petroleum and natural gas
production and reserves are converted at the energy equivalent conversion rate
of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil.


Other property, plant and equipment are depreciated using a declining balance
method over useful life of 20 years.


j. Corporate assets 

Corporate assets not related to oil and natural gas exploration and development
activities are recorded at historical costs and depreciated over their useful
life. These assets are not significant or material in nature.


k. Impairment of non-financial assets 

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that
an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment
testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset's recoverable
amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to
sell or value-in-use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset
does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other
assets or groups of assets, in which case the recoverable amount is assessed as
part of a cash generating unit ("CGU"). If the carrying amount of an asset or
CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or CGU is considered impaired and
is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value-in-use, the
estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a
pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value
of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less
costs to sell, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available.
If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is
used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share
prices for publicly traded securities or other available fair value indicators.


Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognized in the income statement.

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any
indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or
may have decreased. If such indication exists, the Company estimates the asset's
or cash-generating unit's recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment
loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to
determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was
recognized. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset
does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that
would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been
recognized for the asset in prior years.


l. Leases 

Leases or other arrangements entered into for the use of an asset are classified
as either finance or operating leases. Finance leases transfer to the Company
substantially all of the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the
leased asset. Assets under finance lease are amortized over the shorter of the
estimated useful life of the assets and the lease term. All other leases are
classified as operating leases and the payments are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.


m. Financial instruments 

Financial instruments within the scope of IAS 39 Financial Instruments:
Recognition and Measurement ("IAS 39") are initially recognized at fair value on
the balance sheet. The Company has classified each financial instrument into the
following categories: "fair value through profit or loss"; "loans &
receivables"; and "other liabilities". Subsequent measurement of the financial
instruments is based on their classification. Unrealized gains and losses on
fair value through profit or loss financial instruments are recognized in
earnings. The other categories of financial instruments are recognized at
amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company has made the
following classifications:




----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Financial Assets & Liabilities             Category                         
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash                                       Fair value through profit or loss
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounts Receivable                        Loans & receivables              
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due from Private Placement                 Loans & receivables              
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities   Other liabilities                
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Provision for Future Performance Based                                      
 Compensation                              Other liabilities                
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividends Payable                          Other liabilities                
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Long Term Debt                             Other liabilities                
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Derivative Financial Instruments           Fair value through profit or loss
----------------------------------------------------------------------------



Derivative instruments and risk management

Derivative instruments are utilized by the Company to manage market risk against
volatility in commodity prices. The Company's policy is not to utilize
derivative instruments for speculative purposes. The Company has chosen to
designate its existing derivative instruments as cash flow hedges. The Company
assesses, on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used as cash
flow hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged
items. All derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at their
fair value. The effective portion of the gains and losses is recorded in other
comprehensive income until the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings.
When the earnings impact of the underlying hedged transaction is recognized in
the income statement, the fair value of the associated cash flow hedge is
reclassified from other comprehensive income into earnings. Any hedge
ineffectiveness is immediately recognized in earnings. The fair values of
forward contracts are based on forward market prices. 


Embedded derivatives

An embedded derivative is a component of a contract that causes some of the cash
flows of the combined instrument to vary in a way similar to a stand-alone
derivative. This causes some or all of the cash flows that otherwise would be
required by the contract to be modified according to a specified variable, such
as interest rate, financial instrument price, commodity price, foreign exchange
rate, a credit rating or credit index, or other variables to be treated as a
financial derivative. The Company has no contracts containing embedded
derivatives. 


Normal purchase or sale exemption 

Contracts that were entered into and continue to be held for the purpose of the
receipt or delivery of a non-financial item in accordance with the Company's
expected purchase, sale or usage requirements fall within the exemption from IAS
32 Financial Instruments: Presentation ("IAS 32") and IAS 39, which is known as
the 'normal purchase or sale exemption'. The Company recognizes such contracts
in its balance sheet only when one of the parties meets its obligation under the
contract to deliver either cash or a non-financial asset.


n. Hedging 

The Company uses derivative financial instruments from time to time to hedge its
exposure to commodity price fluctuations. All derivative financial instruments
are initiated within the guidelines of the Company's risk management policy.
This includes linking all derivatives to specific assets and liabilities on the
balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The
Company enters into hedges of its exposure to petroleum and natural gas
commodity prices by entering into propane and natural gas fixed price contracts,
when it is deemed appropriate. These derivative contracts, accounted for as
hedges, are recognized on the balance sheet. Realized gains and losses on these
contracts are recognized in revenue and cash flows in the same period in which
the revenues associated with the hedged transaction are recognized. For
derivative financial contracts settling in future periods, a financial asset or
liability is recognized in the balance sheet and measured at fair value, with
changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income.


o. Inventories 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost of
producing oil and natural gas is accounted on a weighted average basis. This
cost includes all costs incurred in the normal course of business in bringing
each product to its present location and condition. 


p. Provisions 

General

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or
constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation
and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the
Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement
is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually
certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in the income
statement net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is
material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects,
where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability


Decommissioning provision

Decommissioning provision is recognized when the Company has a present legal or
constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an
outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable
estimate of the amount of obligation can be made. A corresponding amount
equivalent to the provision is also recognized as part of the cost of the
related property, plant and equipment. The amount recognized is the estimated
cost of decommissioning, discounted to its present value using a risk-free rate.
Changes in the estimated timing of decommissioning or decommissioning cost
estimates are dealt with prospectively by recording an adjustment to the
provision, and a corresponding adjustment to property, plant and equipment. 


q. Taxes 

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are
measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation
authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those
that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date, in Canada.


Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized
in equity and not in the income statement. Management periodically evaluates
positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which
applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes
provisions where appropriate.


Deferred income tax

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
this method, income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated
tax consequences attributable to differences between the amounts reported in the
financial statements and their respective tax bases, using enacted or
substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or
the liability settled. Deferred income tax assets are only recognized to the
extent it is probable that sufficient future taxable income will be available to
allow the deferred income tax asset to be realized. Accumulated deferred income
tax balances are adjusted to reflect changes in income tax rates that are
enacted or substantively enacted with the adjustment being recognized in
earnings in the period that the change occurs, except for items recognized in
equity.


r. Revenue recognition 

Revenue from the sale of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids is recognized
when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred, which
is when title passes to the purchaser. This generally occurs when product is
physically transferred into a pipe or other delivery system. 


Gains and losses on disposition

For all dispositions, either through sale or exchange, gains and losses are
calculated as the difference between the sale or exchange value in the
transaction and the carrying amount of the assets disposed. Gains and losses on
disposition are recognized in earnings in the same period as the transaction
date. 


s. Borrowing costs 

Borrowing costs directly relating to the acquisition, construction or production
of a qualifying capital project under construction are capitalized and added to
the project cost during construction until such time the assets are
substantially ready for their intended use, which is when they are capable of
commercial production. Where the funds used to finance a project form part of
general borrowings, the amount capitalized is calculated using a weighted
average of rates applicable to relevant general borrowings of the Company during
the period. All other borrowing costs are recognized in the income statement in
the period in which they are incurred.


t. Share-based payments 

Cash-settled share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of
the liability award at the grant date. A liability equal to fair value of the
payments is accrued over the vesting period measured at fair value using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model.


The fair value determined at the grant date of the cash-settled share-based
payments is expensed on a graded basis over the vesting period, based on the
Company's estimate of liability instruments that will eventually vest. At the
end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimate of the number of
liability instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the
original estimates, if any, is recognized in the income statement such that the
cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding
adjustment to the related liability on the balance sheet.


u. Earnings per share 

Basic and diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net earnings
available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the reporting period. The Company has no dilutive instruments
outstanding which would cause a difference between the basic and diluted
earnings per share. 


v. Share capital 

Common shares are classified within equity. Incremental costs directly
attributable to the issuance of shares are recognized as a deduction from Share
capital. 


3. Corporate Acquisition 

On August 14, 2012, Peyto completed the acquisition, by plan of arrangement, of
all issued and outstanding common shares of Open Range. The total consideration
of approximately $187.2 million was paid for by the issuance of 5.4 million
common shares of Peyto and the assumption of Open Range's long-term debt and
working capital deficiency ($190.4 million was allocated to Property, plant &
equipment). Transaction costs of approximately $0.7 million were included in
general and administrative expenses in the Income Statement.

If Peyto had acquired Open Range on January 1, 2012, the pro-forma results of

    non-cash items not to exceed 3.0 times trailing twelve month net income
    before non-cash items, interest and income taxes;  
--  Long-term debt and subordinated debt plus the average working capital
    deficiency (surplus) at the end of the two most recently completed
    fiscal quarters adjusted for non-cash items not to exceed 4.0 times
    trailing twelve month net income before non-cash items, interest and
    income taxes;  
--  Trailing twelve months net income before non-cash items, interest and
    income taxes to exceed 3.0 times trailing twelve months interest
    expense;  
--  Long-term debt and subordinated debt plus the average working capital
    deficiency (surplus) at the end of the two most recently completed
    fiscal quarters adjusted for non-cash items not to exceed 55 per cent of
    the book value of shareholders' equity and long-term debt and
    subordinated debt.

average borrowing rate for 2013 was 4.2% (2012 - 4.7%). 


6. Decommissioning provision 

The Company makes provision for the future cost of decommissioning wells,
pipelines and facilities on a discounted basis based on the decommissioning of
these assets.


The decommissioning provision represents the present value of the
decommissioning costs related to the above infrastructure, which are expected to
be incurred over the economic life of the assets. The provisions have been based
on the Company's internal estimates on the cost of decommissioning, the discount
rate, the inflation rate and the economic life of the infrastructure.
Assumptions, based on the current economic environment, have been made which
management believes are a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the future
liability. These estimates are reviewed regularly to take into account any
material changes to the assumptions. However, actual decommissioning costs will
ultimately depend upon the future market prices for the necessary
decommissioning work required which will reflect market conditions at the
relevant time. Furthermore, the timing of the decommissioning is likely to
depend on when production activities ceases to be economically viable. This in
turn will depend and be directly related to the current and future commodity
prices, which are inherently uncertain.


The following table reconciles the change in decommissioning provision:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Company has estimated the net present value of its total decommissioning
provision to be $61.2 million as at December 31, 2013 ($58.2 million at December
31, 2012) based on a total future undiscounted liability of $177.8 million
($127.9 million at December 31, 2012). At December 31, 2013 management estimates
that these payments are expected to be made over the next 50 years with the
majority of payments being made in years 2040 to 2064. The Bank of Canada's long
term bond rate of 3.24 per cent (2.36 per cent at December 31, 2012) and an
inflation rate of 2.0 per cent (2.0 per cent at December 31, 2012) were used to
calculate the present value of the decommissioning provision.

11. Future performance based compensation 

The Company awards performance based compensation to employees annually. The
performance based compensation is comprised of reserve and market value based
components.


Reserve based component

The reserves value based component is 4% of the incremental increase in value,
if any, as adjusted to reflect changes in debt, equity, dividends, general and
administrative costs and interest, of proved producing reserves calculated using
a constant price at December 31 of the current year and a discount rate of 8%. 


Market based component

Under the market based component, rights with a three year vesting period are
allocated to employees and key consultants. The number of rights outstanding at
any time is not to exceed 6% of the total number of common shares outstanding.
At December 31 of each year, all vested rights are automatically cancelled and,
if applicable, paid out in cash. Compensation is calculated as the number of
vested rights multiplied by the total of the market appreciation (over the price
at the date of grant) and associated dividends of a common share for that
period. The 2013 market based component was based on i) 0.6 million vested
rights at an average grant price of $19.12, average cumulative distributions of
$0.72 and a ten day weighted average price of $24.75; ii) 0.07 million vested
rights at an average grant price of $20.63, average cumulative dividends of
$0.48 and a ten day weighted average price of $22.58 and iii) 1.0 million vested
rights at an average grant price of $22.83, average cumulative distributions of
$0.88 and a ten day weighted average price of $32.27. The 2012 market based
component was based on i) 0.5 million vested rights at an average grant price of
$13.50, average cumulative distributions of $1.44 and a ten day weighted average
closing price of $18.83, ii) 0.6 million vested rights at an average grant price
of $19.13, average cumulative distributions of $0.72 and a ten day weighted
average price of $24.75 and iii) 0.07 million vested rights at an average grant
price of $20.63, average cumulative dividends of $0.48 and a ten day weighted
average price of $22.58. 


The total amount expensed under these plans was as follows:

Total market and reserves based compensation          16,297          12,587
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------



For the future market based component, compensation costs as at December 31,
2013 were $5.56 million (2012 - $2.82 million recovery) related to 0.1 million
non-vested rights with an average grant price of $20.63, average cumulative
dividends of $0.48 and 2.0 million non-vested rights with an average grant price
of $22.83 and average cumulative dividends of $0.88. (2012 - 0.6 million
non-vested rights with an average grant price of $19.13 and 0.1 million
non-vested rights with an average grant price of $20.63 were a recovery of $2.8
million). The cumulative provision for future performance based compensation as
at December 31, 2013 was $8.3 million (2012 - $2.7 million). 


The fair values were calculated using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The
principal inputs to the option valuation model were:

At December 31, 2013 the Company has tax pools of approximately $1,467.1 million
(2012 - $1,288.0 million) available for deduction against future income. The
Company has approximately $19.7 million in loss carry-forwards (2012 - $42.1
million) available to reduce future taxable income.


Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") conducted an audit of restructuring costs incurred
in the 2003 trust conversion. On September 25, 2008, the CRA reassessed on the
basis that $41 million of these costs were not deductible and treated them as an
eligible capital amount. The Company filed a notice of objection and the CRA
confirmed the reassessment. Examinations for discovery have been completed. The
Tax Court of Canada had agreed to both parties' request to hold the Company's
appeal in abeyance pending a decision of the Supreme Court of Canada to hear
another taxpayer's appeal. The other appeal raised issues that are similar in
principle to those raised in the Company's appeal. As the other taxpayer's
appeal was unsuccessful with the Federal Court of Appeal, in 2011, the Company
expensed the income tax of $4.9 million and interest charges of $2.2 million
assessed and paid in 2008. Subsequently, the Alberta Government reassessed the
same time period resulting in income taxes payable of $1.8 million and interest
charges of $1.4 million paid in 2013.


13. Financial instruments 

Financial instrument classification and measurement

Financial instruments of the Company carried on the balance sheet are carried at
amortized cost with the exception of cash derivative financial instruments,
specifically fixed price contracts, which are carried at fair value. There are
no significant differences between the carrying amount of financial instruments
and their estimated fair values as at December 31, 2013.


The fair value of the Company's cash and derivative financial instruments, are
quoted in active markets. The Company classifies the fair value of these
transactions according to the following hierarchy.




--  Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical financial
    instruments. 
--  Level 2 - quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets;
    quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are
    not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs
    and significant and significant value drivers are observable in active
    markets. 
--  Level 3 - valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or
    more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. 



The Company's cash and financial derivative instruments have been assessed on
the fair value hierarchy described above and classified as Level 1. 


Fair values of financial assets and liabilities

The Company's financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable,
derivative financial instruments, due from private placement, current
liabilities, provision for future performance based compensation and long term
debt. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, cash and derivative financial instruments,
are carried at fair value. Accounts receivable, due from private placement,
current liabilities and provision for future performance based compensation
approximate their fair value due to their short term nature. The carrying value
of the long term debt approximates its fair value due to the floating rate of
interest charged under the credit facility.


Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices will affect the Company's
earnings or the value of its financial instruments. Market risk is comprised of
commodity price risk and interest rate risk. The objective of market risk
management is to manage and control exposures within acceptable limits, while
maximizing returns. The Company's objectives, processes and policies for
managing market risks have not changed from the previous year. 


Commodity price risk management 

The Company is a party to certain derivative financial instruments, including
fixed price contracts. The Company enters into these contracts with
well-established counterparties for the purpose of protecting a portion of its
future earnings and cash flows from operations from the volatility of petroleum
and natural gas prices. The Company believes the derivative financial
instruments are effective as hedges, both at inception and over the term of the
instrument, as the term and notional amount do not exceed the Company's firm
commitment or forecasted transactions and the underlying basis of the
instruments correlate highly with the Company's exposure. 


Following is a summary of all risk management contracts in place as at December
31, 2013:

As at December 31, 2013, Peyto had committed to the future sale of 252,000
barrels of natural gas liquids at an average price of $42.67 CAD ($40.12 USD)
per barrel and 96,070,000 gigajoules (GJ) of natural gas at an average price of
$3.40 per GJ or $3.91 per mcf. Had these contracts been closed on December 31,
2013, Peyto would have realized a loss in the amount of $31.7 million. If the
AECO gas price on December 31, 2013 were to increase by $1/GJ, the unrealized
loss would increase by approximately $96.1 million. An opposite change in
commodity prices rates would result in an opposite impact on other comprehensive
income. 


Subsequent to December 31, 2013 Peyto entered into the following contracts:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------



Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk in relation to interest expense on
its revolving credit facility. Currently, the Company has not entered into any
agreements to manage this risk. If interest rates applicable to floating rate
debt were to have increased by 100 bps (1%) it is estimated that the Company's
earnings before income tax for the year ended December 31, 2013 would decrease
by $5.8 million. An opposite change in interest rates would result in an
opposite impact on earnings before income tax. 


Credit risk

A substantial portion of the Company's accounts receivable is with petroleum and
natural gas marketing entities. Industry standard dictates that commodity sales
are settled on the 25th day of the month following the month of production. The
Company generally extends unsecured credit to purchasers, and therefore, the
collection of accounts receivable may be affected by changes in economic or
other conditions and may accordingly impact the Company's overall credit risk.
Management believes the risk is mitigated by the size, reputation and
diversified nature of the companies to which they extend credit. Credit limits
exceeding $2,000,000 per month are not granted to non-investment grade
counterparties unless the Company receives either i) a parental guarantee from
an investment grade parent; or ii) an irrevocable letter of credit for two
months revenue. The Company has not previously experienced any material credit
losses on the collection of accounts receivable. Of the Company's revenue for
the year ended December 31, 2013, approximately 62% was received from five
companies (15%, 13%, 13%, 11%, and 10%) (December 31, 2012 - 14%, one company).
Of the Company's accounts receivable at December 31, 2013, approximately 61% was
receivable from five companies (14%, 14%, 11%, 11%, and 11%) (December 31, 2012
- 14%, one company). The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the
carrying amount on the balance sheet. There are no material financial assets
that the Company considers past due and no accounts have been written off.


The Company may be exposed to certain losses in the event of non-performance by
counterparties to commodity price contracts. The Company mitigates this risk by
entering into transactions with counterparties that have investment grade credit
ratings.


Counterparties to financial instruments expose the Company to credit losses in
the event of non-performance. Counterparties for derivative instrument
transactions are limited to high credit-quality financial institutions, which
are all members of our syndicated credit facility.


The Company assesses quarterly if there should be any impairment of financial
assets. At December 31, 2013, there was no impairment of any of the financial
assets of the Company.


Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk includes the risk that, as a result of operational liquidity
requirements:




--  The Company will not have sufficient funds to settle a transaction on
    the due date; 
--  The Company will be forced to sell financial assets at a value which is
   less than what they are worth; or 
--  The Company may be unable to settle or recover a financial asset at all.



The Company's operating cash requirements, including amounts projected to
complete our existing capital expenditure program, are continuously monitored
and adjusted as input variables change. These variables include, but are not
limited to, available bank lines, oil and natural gas production from existing
wells, results from new wells drilled, commodity prices, cost overruns on
capital projects and changes to government regulations relating to prices,
taxes, royalties, land tenure, allowable production and availability of markets.
As these variables change, liquidity risks may necessitate the need for the
Company to conduct equity issues or obtain debt financing. The Company also
mitigates liquidity risk by maintaining an insurance program to minimize
exposure to certain losses.


The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at
December 31, 2013:




                                           less

Capital disclosures

The Company's objectives when managing capital are: (i) to maintain a flexible
capital structure, which optimizes the cost of capital at acceptable risk; and
(ii) to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence to sustain the future
development of the business.


The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light
of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its underlying
assets. The Company considers its capital structure to include equity, debt and
working capital. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may
from time to time, issue common shares, raise debt, adjust its capital spending
or change dividends paid to manage its current and projected debt levels. The
Company monitors capital based on the following measures: current and projected
debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and
amortization ("EBITDA") ratios, payout ratios and net debt levels. To facilitate
the management of these ratios, the Company prepares annual budgets, which are
updated depending on varying factors such as general market conditions and
successful capital deployment. Currently, all ratios are within acceptable
parameters. The annual budget is approved by the Board of Directors. 


There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management from the
previous year.

16. Contingencies 

On October 31, 2013, Peyto was named as a party to a statement of claim received
with respect to transactions between Poseidon Concepts Corp. and Open Range
Energy Corp. The allegations contained in the claim are based on factual matters
that pre-existed Peyto's involvement with New Open Range which makes them
difficult to assess at this time. However, Peyto intends to aggressively protect
its interests and the interests of its shareholders and will seek all available
legal remedies in defending the action. Management continues to assess the
nature of this claim, in conjunction with their legal advisors.
