Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Ratios Throughout this news release, Superior has identified specific terms, including ratios, that it uses that are not standardize d measures under International Financial Reporting Standards (“Non -GAAP Financial Measures”) and therefore may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Information to reconcile these Non -GAAP Financial Measures to the most directly comparable financial measures in Superior’s conden sed consolidated financial statements as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (“Q2 2026 Financial Statements”) is provided below. Certain additional disclosures for these Non -GAAP Financial Measures, including an explanation of the composition of these financial measures, how they provide helpful information to an investor, and any additional purposes management uses for them, are incorporated by reference from the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations” section in Superior’s 2026 Second Quarter MD&A dated August 6, 2026, available on www.sedarplus.com. Adjusted EBITDA is consistent with the Segment profit (loss) disclosed in Note 18 Reportable Segment Information of the Financial Statements. Adjusted EBITDA from operations is the sum of U.S. Propane, Canadian Propane, and CNG Segment profit (loss). Adjusted EBITDA per share is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by the weighted av erage outstanding shares assuming the exchange of the issued and outstanding preferred shares into common shares. Adjusted EBTDA is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA less interest on borrowings and interest on lease liability. Adjusted EBTDA per share is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBTDA by the weighted average outstanding shares assuming the exchange of the issued and outstanding preferred shares into common shares. Corporate Operating Costs are defined as Corporate Segment profit (loss) disclosed in Note 18 Reportable Segment Information of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Capital Expenditures are inclusive of purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets and lease additions. Leverage Ratio is determined by dividing Superior’s Net Debt ($1,638.0 million) by its Adjusted EBITDA ($452.2 million), both components are Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Free Cash Flow per share for Q2 2026 is calculated as Segment Profit (Loss) ($36.8 million) less interest expense ($19.8 million), taxes paid ($14.6 million), capital expenditures ($32.5 million), transaction, restructuring and other costs ($0.2 million) and the preferred share dividend paid in the period ($4. 7 million). Free Cash Flow per share is calculated by dividing Free Cash Flow by the weighted average common outstanding shares. This calculation excludes changes in non -cash operating working capital and other, which can fluctuate meaningfully and from quarter to quarter and can therefore detract from the purpose of the metric which is to demonstrate the performance from the underlying operations.

Superior Plus Corp. 6 2026 Second Quarter Results Adjusted Net Earnings for Q2 2026 is calculated as segment profit for the period ($36.8 million) and adjusting for depreciation and amortization ($6 3.5 million), current taxes ($3.3 million), gain (loss) on disposal ($ 2.6 million), finance expense ($2 1.0 million) and the preferred share dividend paid in the period ($4. 7 million). Adjusted Net Earnings per share is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Earnings by the weighted average common shares outstanding.
