MCF Energy Update of Operations on Lech the Kinsau-1A Well, Lech East, Reudnitz Gas Field and Erlenwiese Licence in Germany

Vancouver, British Columbia – August 7, 2026 – MCF Energy Ltd. (TSX.V: MCF; FRA: DC6; OTC: MCFNF) (“MCF” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce an operational update for the Kinsau-1A (Kn-1A) well in Lech, Germany, and licence extension information for the Reudnitz gas field and Erlenwiese licence.

Kinsau 1-A Drilling Update, Lech, Germany

The Kinsau-1A well has drilled to a total depth of 3310 meters Measured Depth (MD) and bottomed in the Jurassic Malm Reef Carbonate interval. The bottom hole of the new well is within 65 meters of the original Mobil gas discovery well. On September 10th the first target zone, the Lower Cretaceous/Jurassic Purbeck carbonate interval was penetrated. This is the zone that tested gas at high rates in Mobil’s original Kinsau-1(Kn-1) well in 1983. The Purbeck interval was found at a depth of 3181 meters MD (2485,5 m TVDSS), 3m higher than the original Kn-1. Porosity logs indicate the reservoir facies in Kn-1A have better porosities than seen in Kn-1 with zones of up to 12% porosity and streaks as high as 17% porosity. Preliminary results indicate more than 18m of reservoir with an average porosity of 8.6% in the Purbeck and a potential Hydrocarbon Water Contact at 3244 meters MD. Pipe was run and cemented and the well has stood idle as permits to test and various options to monetize this gas discovery are explored. Several options are available to begin production and the operator is analyzing the economics of each.

Genexco GmbH, a 100% subsidiary of MCF Energy Ltd., has a 20% interest in Energieprojekt Kinsau 1 GmbH, the licensee and operator of the Kinsau-1A well.

Lech East

Lech East is a very large concession which covers about 100 square kilometres in Bavaria directly offsetting the Lech discovery block. MCF has reprocessed the 160 square kilometres of 3D shot by Mobil with the new AI and Machine Learning Paradise software package and has outlined the best prospective target areas with the same seismic signatures as the Kinsau 1A discovery. The Company has allowed the original concession to expire on July 31st and will now apply for a smaller concession area which covers these prospective targets. This smaller concession will greatly reduce the impact on the local communities and watershed and be more environmentally compatible with the area.

Reudnitz, Germany

MCF/Genexco received a 27-month extension of the Reudnitz exploration licence from the Landesamt fur Bergbau Geologie und Rohstoffe (LBGR) to December 31, 2027. The Company is currently in talks with a gas processing company to design and build a processing facility for the gas produced from the Reudnitz Z2a horizontal well drilled in the field. A test will be run on the gas to determine the economics of this plant and final design parameters.

Erlenwiese, Germany

The Company has received the 3D data covering the prospect and is currently analyzing the data using the Paradise Machine Learning software. Results are expected very soon which will trigger a drill or drop decision. On September 12, 2025 Genexco received the extension notice from the Regierungspräsidium Darmstadt, the relevant Mining Authority of the Federal State of Hesse (MA) for the company’s Erlenwiese licence. The MA granted a one year extension to September 13, 2026. MCF is in the process of filing for an extension of this concession.
