Is a Canadian work permit extension considered a job offer for an express entry program?

I landed on Canada on Jan 21st, 2018 on a two year closed work permit and the permit is expiring on Jan 2nd, 2020. I have submitted my application for extending my work permit through my company for another year and am expected to receive the extension by Jan 2020. So my current state is
• I have 1 Year of Canadian Work Experience.
• By Jan 21st, 2020, I will able to claim 2 Years of Canadian Work Experience.

So, once I get my 1 Year extension of work permit, can I update my express entry profile in a way that,
• 1 Year Canadian Experience and a Valid Job offer.
OR
• 2 Year Canadian Experience and no Job Offer.
