(1) Management uses funds generated by operations to analyze operating
performance and leverage. Funds generated by operations as
presented do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by
Canadian GAAP and therefore it may not be comparable with the
calculation of similar measures for other entities. The
reconciliation between funds flow from operations and cash flow
from operating activities can be found in the MD & A.
(2) Boe conversion ratio for natural gas of 1 Boe: 6 Mcf has been
used, which is based on an energy equivalency conversion method
primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not necessarily
represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
(3) Corporate netbacks are calculated as the operating netback less
general and administrative expenses, financial charges asset
retirement obligations and in 2009, the reorganization costs.
(4) Excludes unrealized risk management contracts and related future
income taxes.

Reserves and Capital Efficiencies
The Company's reserves were evaluated as at December 31, 2010 by the independent
engineering firm of Sproule Associates Limited ("Sproule") in accordance with
the rules provided by National Instrument 51-101 ("NI 51-101"). The following
tables provide summary information presented in the Sproule report effective
December 31, 2010 and based on their January 1, 2011 price forecast.
The December 31, 2010 reserve reports were prepared by Sproule utilizing the
methodology and definitions as set out under NI 51-101. The year end working
interest reserves for 2010 include Wild Stream's working interests excluding
royalty interests received before royalties payable. Where amounts and volumes
are expressed on a barrel of oil equivalent basis ("boe"), gas volumes have been
converted to barrels of oil at 6,000 cubic feet per barrel (6 mcf/bbl).

Net Asset Value
At December 31, 2010, Wild Stream had a before tax net asset value of $8.87 per
diluted share at a 10 percent discount using total proved plus probable reserves
as evaluated by Sproule under the standards of NI 51-101 and an internal
assessment of undeveloped land value. The net asset value is a point in time
calculation and is based on various assumptions, including commodity prices and
foreign exchange rates that vary over time. It should not be assumed that the
net asset value represents the fair market value. Forecast prices used in this
assessment were the Sproule price forecast as of January 1, 2011. No value was
assigned for the Company's proprietary seismic.

Outlook
South West Saskatchewan experienced record snow pack over the first quarter
which will result in a prolonged breakup. As a result we are not anticipating
the re-start of our drilling activities in Shaunavon and Dodsland until early
June. Although second quarter production volumes may be nominally impacted we do
not expect any impact to our average 2011 guidance of 4,100 boepd.
Currently the company has $95 million of undrawn bank lines and positive working
capital which positions us well for executing an aggressive capital program this
year.
Wild Stream's multiyear inventory, proven execution abilities and commitment to
prudent fiscal management should allow your company to see meaningful per share
growth for the foreseeable future. We remain committed to increasing shareholder
value through a combination of exploration, strategic acquisitions and
subsequent exploitation while maintaining a conservative approach to balance
sheet management.
Additional corporate information can be found in our April corporate
presentation on our website at www.wildsr.com.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS: This press release contains forward-looking
statements. More particularly, this press release contains statements concerning
Wild Stream's drilling plans, future growth plans, reserves and values
attributable thereto, per share growth and Wild Stream's growth strategy. In
addition, the use of any of the words "guidance", "initial, "scheduled", "will",
"prior to", "estimate", "anticipate", "believe", "potential", "should",
"unaudited", "forecast", "future", "continue", "may", "expect", "project", and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The
forward-looking statements contained herein are based on certain key
expectations and assumptions made by the Company, including expectations and
assumptions concerning the success of optimization and efficiency improvement
projects, the availability of capital, current legislation, the success of
future drilling and development activities, the performance of existing wells,
the performance of new wells, Wild Stream's growth strategy, general economic
conditions, availability of required equipment and services and prevailing
commodity prices. Although the Company believes that the expectations and
assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable,
undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements because
the Company can give no assurance that they will prove to be correct. Since
forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very
nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could
differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors
and risks. These include, but are not limited to, risks associated with the oil
and gas industry in general (e.g., operational risks in development, exploration
and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration or
development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve
estimates; the uncertainty of estimates and projections relating to production,
costs and expenses, and health, safety and environmental risks), commodity price
and exchange rate fluctuations, changes in legislation affecting the oil and gas
industry and uncertainties resulting from potential delays or changes in plans
with respect to exploration or development projects or capital expenditures.
Certain of these risks are set out in more detail in the Company's Annual
Information Form which has been filed on SEDAR and can be accessed at
www.sedar.com or Wild Stream's website www.wildsr.com.
The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of
the date hereof and the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or
revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, unless so required by applicable
securities laws.
Meaning of Boe: When used in this press release, Boe means a barrel of oil
equivalent on the basis of 1 Boe to 6 thousand cubic feet of natural gas. Boe
per day means a barrel of oil equivalent per day. Boe's may be misleading,
particularly if used in isolation. A Boe conversion ratio of 1 Boe for 6
thousand cubic feet of natural gas is based on an energy equivalency conversion
method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value
equivalency at the wellhead.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, nor the solicitation
of an offer to buy, any securities in the United States, nor shall there be any
sale of securities mentioned in this press release in any state in the United
States in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to
registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
