Wolf Regener, President and CEO, commented: “We are very pleased that our proved developed producing reserves increased by 30 percent due to our successful 2025 drilling program. Proved developed producing reserves valuation (NPV discounted at 10%) increased by 10% to $189 million, despite the much lower oil prices used in this reserve report. The 2026 oil price used in the reserve report is $58 a barrel which is 24% below the previous year’s report of $76 a barrel. This is in stark contrast to current oil prices, which are in excess of $90 per barrel.

“Total proved reserves increased 1% in 2025, even though we drilled almost all of our wells in Proved locations and produced approximately 1.5 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) of proved reserves. And, with our percentage of PDP versus Total Proved reserves at 29%, we still have a significant amount of proved undeveloped reserves to be able to convert into future production.
