Introduction

General information

These interim financial statements for Pandion Energy AS ("Pandion Energy" or "the company") have been prepared to comply with:

  • The amended and restated reserve-based lending facility ("RBL") agreement dated 2 June 2022
  • Bond terms for senior unsecured bond dated 2 June 2022

These interim financial statements have not been subject to review or audit by independent auditors.

Accounting principles

These interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of simplified IFRS pursuant to the Norwegian Accounting Act §3-9 and regulations regarding simplified application of IFRS issued by the Norwegian Ministry of Finance on 3 November 2014, thus the interim financial statements do not include all information required by simplified IFRS and should be read in conjunction with financial statements of the company for the period ending 31 December 2022.

The accounting policies adopted are in all aspects consistent with those followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the company for the year ending 31 December 2022.

For further detailed information on accounting principles, please refer to the financial statements for 2022.

The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and interim periods presented. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for an

annual period. In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Financial review

Revenues

In Q4 2023, the company generated revenues from sale of liquids and natural gas of USD 63.2 million, compared to USD 76.7 million in the same period last year. The lower revenues were mainly driven by decreased oil and gas prices. The volume of oil sold was 682 kboe in Q4 2023 compared to 686 kboe in Q4 2022.

During Q4 2023, average realised oil price before hedging was USD 85.0 per boe, a decrease from the USD 92.4 per boe achieved in Q4 2022. The average realised gas price in Q4 2023 was USD 76.6 per boe, down from USD 169.5 per boe in the same period last year. The combined average realised price for oil, gas and NGL during the quarter was USD 83.6 per boe, compared to USD 98.1 per boe achieved in Q4 2022.

Operating expenses and financial results

In Q4 2023, the company's EBITDAX amounted to USD 57.0 million, a decrease from USD 66.6 million achieved in the same period last year. The lower EBITDAX is mainly explained by lower operating revenues during the quarter.

Operating expenses for the oil and gas sold were recorded at USD 5.1 million in Q4 2023, compared to USD 13.0 million incurred during Q4 2022. Change in over-/underlift inventories and change in value of deferral settlements was the main reason for the decrease in operating expenses compared to the same period last year.

Profit from operating activities was USD 35.6 million (USD 48.2 million in Q4 2022). In addition to decreased EBITDAX the reduced profit was driven by higher depreciation partly offset by lower exploration expenses.

Higher depreciation is primarily linked to revision of reserve estimate and higher production from Nova. The main reason for decrease in exploration expenses is lower costs related to impairment and relinquishment of exploration licenses.

Financial review

Capital expenditures

Investments in exploration & evaluation assets amounted to USD 14.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 largely explained by appraisal activities on PL 929 Ofelia.

The company's investments in fixed assets in Q4 2023 amounted to USD 18.6 million, of which USD 16.8 million was invested in the Valhall and Hod fields. Most of this investment was allocated to drilling and workovers on Valhall Flank North, the Sulphate Removal Unit project, and the Valhall PWP project. An additional USD 1.8 million was invested in the Nova field.

Financial position

The company's interest-bearing debt was USD 108.0 million at the end of the fourth quarter, down from USD 166.5 million at the end of the third quarter of 2023. The debt is comprised of a bond debt of USD 75 million and an RBL drawdown of USD 33 million. The net debt was reduced by USD 70.6 million during the quarter down to USD 77.6 million. The reduction in debt was facilitated by the tax refund for historical losses received during the quarter. Overall, the company maintains its strong financial position with a leverage ratio of 0.4x net debt/ EBITDAX.

Financial risk management

In order to reduce the risk related to oil price fluctuations, the company has established an oil price hedging programme.

At the end of December, 39% of the after-tax (11% of pre-tax) crude oil production volumes up to the end of 2024 had been hedged at an average floor price of 54 USD/bbl (USD 51.7/bbl net of costs). Additional positions may be added to the program going forward, however, the structure, amounts and levels of any further hedging will depend on how the market for commodity derivatives develops.

The company has recognised a realised loss from hedging in Q4 2023 presented as other income. The loss amounted to USD 0.3 million.

Operational review

Valhall and Hod fields

During the fourth quarter, production from the Valhall area averaged 5.4 thousand barrels of oil equivalents per day, net to Pandion Energy, an increase from third quarter as the field continued to ramp up production following the unplanned shutdown in the third quarter, and production efficiency improved to 84 per cent.

The Noble Invincible rig finalised drilling of a new infill well on Valhall Flank North in the quarter. Additionally, it completed workovers of two other wells in the area. The rig has now moved to Hod A to begin the second phase of the Hod A plugging and abandonment campaign. The objective is to permanently plug and abandon eight wells at the old Hod A platform.

The Valhall PWP project progressed according to plan in the fourth quarter. The joint development project with Fenris comprises a new centrally located production and wellhead Platform (PWP) bridge-linked to the Valhall central complex. The Fenris gas field will be tied back to the PWP installation. Engineering and procurement activities are on schedule, and fabrication has started at several locations both in Norway and abroad. The PWP bridge is one of the key components currently being manufactured.

The total estimated recoverable resources for Valhall PWP amount to 70 mmboe gross, with production scheduled to begin in 2027. The project also includes a modernisation of Valhall, ensuring continued operations when parts of the current infrastructure are phased out in 2028. The development will leverage Valhall's existing power-from-shore system, resulting in minimal emissions estimated at less than 1 kilogram of CO2 per boe.

Operational review

During Q4 2023, production from the Nova field averaged 3.3 thousand barrels of oil equivalents per day, net to Pandion Energy (including compensation volume). Production availability was 99%.

The Nova field licence group is obligated to compensate the Gjøa licence group for deferred production due to the tie-in operations. The compensation shall be paid in kind by the Nova group's own production. The compensation volume in Q4 2023 was 0.7 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day net from Pandion Energy.

A side-track drilling operation to improve the effect of one of the injector wells was successfully completed in the previous quarter, leading to improved water injection and increased production. Production at Nova remains somewhat limited by reduced effectiveness of the water injectors. A rig has been secured to drill a fourth water injector well in the second half of 2024 which will enable the operator to target the best location for Nova's fourth water injector and further improve the water injection at the field. Development of a new well for production is currently being evaluated by the licence.

These efforts demonstrate the company's commitment optimising the field's production and maximising it`s long-term value.

Nova field Exploration and evaluation activities

On 12 December, Pandion Energy announced the results from the Ofelia appraisal well in PL 929 confirming volumes within the expected range of recoverable reserves. In addition, a new gas discovery was made in the Kyrre formation. PL 929 is located close to the Gjøa field in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea. Pandion Energy holds a 20 per cent participating interest in the licence.

Other activities

Pandion Energy will continue to be an active and responsible partner in driving value in high quality assets on the Norwegian continental shelf. As part of this, the company actively searches for and evaluates opportunities to make value-accretive investments (e.g. through acquisitions, farm-ins, licencing rounds, swaps or other) and to divest assets to realise value created in its existing portfolio (e.g. through sale, farm-downs, swaps or other), and/or to seek business combinations that may cater for further, profitable growth.

Note 5 Impairments

Impairment tests of individual cash-generating units are performed when impairment triggers are identified and for goodwill impairment is tested annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

In Q4 2023, two categories of impairment tests have been performed:

  • Impairment test of oil and gas assets and related intangible assets
  • Impairment test of technical goodwill

In the assessment of whether an impairment is required at 31 December 2023, Pandion Energy has used a combination of Brent forward curve from the beginning of 2024 to the end of 2025, a mean of market participant view from 2026 to 2029, and 70 USD per boe in real terms from 2030, An inflation rate of 2 per cent per annum and a discount rate of 9% have been applied to calculate the future post-tax cash flows.

No impairments of oil and gas assets and related intangible assets or technical goodwill were recognised in Q4 2023.

Note 7 Taxes

Income tax for the full year 2023 is estimated at USD 88 million, an increase from USD 82.6 million for the full year 2022. The effective tax rate in 2023 was 102% compared to 91% in 2022. The difference from the statutory tax rate of 78% in 2023 is mainly related to financial items only deductible in corporate tax, exchange rate effects and depreciation of asset acquisition value with no deferred tax.

The tax calculation is based on the new tax petroleum system enacted in June 2022 with effect from 1 January 2022. According to the new rules, the special petroleum tax (56%) is converted into a cash-based tax with an immediate deductions for expenses incurred. The tax value of new losses (both exploration losses and other losses) in the special tax base is refunded. As part of the transition to the new tax regime, tax value of historical losses and utilised uplift was settled as part of tax assessment for 2022 during Q4 2023.

The calculations assume an inflation rate of 2.0 per cent and a nominal discount rate before tax of 5.0 per cent. The nominal discount rate is composed of a risk-free rate and a credit margin.

The increase in estimated ARO is mainly due to change of estimated rig days and expenses related to P&A activities.
