OPERATING RESULTS
Article content
During the second quarter of 2026, MAXIM recorded net loss and Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $3.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively, as compared to net income and Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $0.4 million and $6.2 million, respectively, in the same period of 2025. Net income and Adjusted EBITDA(1) decreased in 2026 primarily due to lower generation volumes and lower average realized power prices in the second quarter of 2026. Partially offsetting the unfavourable variance to net income were higher unrealized gains on commodity swaps in the second quarter of 2026.
Article content
As a result of lower average Alberta market power pricing in the second quarter of 2026, M2 spent more time offline, or at lower output levels, to avoid uneconomic dispatch hours. M2, through its efficient combined cycle gas turbine configuration, demonstrated significant operational efficiency and flexibility throughout the quarter, the result of which helped minimize negative financial impact from prolonged uneconomic periods.

GROUND LEASE
Article content
On April 29, 2025, MAXIM, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Milner Power Inc. (“Milner”), entered into a ground lease at the Milner site with Mine 14 Operations Inc (“Mine 14 Ops”) to allow for construction and operation of a coal processing facility. On July 14, 2026, Mine 14 Ops issued a notice of termination under the ground lease providing for fourteen months notice of its termination of the ground lease in accordance with the terms of the ground lease. As such the ground lease will terminate on September 14, 2027. Mine 14 Ops continues to be obligated to pay rent of $0.3 million per month up to September 2027. As a result of the termination, there is no longer a potential benefit to MAXIM from the variable throughput payment which would have been payable under the ground lease if a coal processing facility was constructed and operational on the leased lands.
