Executive summary
Strategic focus on geographic diversification and asset acquisition, highlighted by the proposed all-cash acquisition of Capricorn Energy, which will expand operations into Egypt and diversify cash generation; shareholder vote scheduled for August 18.
H1 2026 performance was significantly impacted by a near four-month production suspension in Kurdistan due to regional hostilities, with production resuming late in the period and investment drilling restarted.
Maintains a resilient, cash-generative platform with disciplined capital allocation and significant unvalued potential.
Continued progress in Oman (Block 54) and Somaliland (SL10B13), with drilling and exploration advancing and targeted for 2027.
Announced all-cash offer for Capricorn Energy, with irrevocable undertakings from 39% of Capricorn's share capital.
Financial highlights
H1 2026 working interest production averaged 6,600 bopd (gross 26,400 bopd), all sold domestically at an average price of $31/bbl, due to the suspension.
Revenue for H1 2026 was $13.4 million, down from $35.8 million in H1 2025; EBITDAX was negative $4.2 million, and operating loss was $15.3 million.

Basic loss per share from continuing operations was (6.3) cents.
Outlook and guidance
Completion of the Capricorn acquisition is expected to double production and reserves, delivering a step change in production and cash generation.
Focus remains on resuming international exports from Kurdistan, contingent on payment terms consistent with PSCs and regional stability.
Drilling of two wells in Block 54 (Oman) and Toosan-1 (Somaliland) targeted for 2027, with up to $15 million to be invested in pre-production assets in 2026.
Multiple catalysts ahead in 2026/2027, including export restart at Tawke and strategic investments in Oman and Somaliland.
