P/F ATLANTIC PETROLEUM
REPORT FOR THE 3 MONTHS ENDED 31st MARCH 2025
Faroese Company Registration No/VAT No: 2695/475653
P/F Atlantic Petroleum Condensed Consolidated Interim Report 1Q 2025 Issued 30th May 2025 [email protected] www.petroleum.fo 1
Following a lengthy process Atlantic Petroleum reached an agreement on the 4th April 2025 with its main creditors to reduce the Company's debt. The total debt will be reduced by at least DKK 90MM after finalization of the debt restructuring.
The expectation is that the Orlando field will continue to produce at stable rates in 2025. The Company expects to be cash generating in 2025. This is based on the forecasted Orlando production, oil prices and exchange rates at year-end. Therefore, the actual outcome may differ materially from the forecast.
The activity level in Atlantic Petroleum has been kept to a minimum these past years to limit costs as much as possible. The G&A cost for the year 2024 was DKK 2.4MM. The cashflow situation in the Group will still be tight in 2025, and the activity level will be kept at a minimum in the near future.
The Board sees the debt restructuring as a pre-requisite for the company to continue. Having a potential avenue to repay debt, could make it possible for the Group to raise capital, should the right opportunity arise and should the market conditions be favourable.
The Orlando field, being a subsea tie-back to Ninian, is becoming a mature asset reaching the end of its life. The Group is not party to any discussions on decommissioning and has assumed, in preparing its forecasts and valuing the royalty, that production continues to the end of 2026.
Given the relative short lifespan remaining on the Orlando field, it is necessary for Atlantic Petroleum to replace it to grow in the future. Therefore, the Board will prioritise reviewing new possible opportunities in the market in 2025.
Given the pending agreement on the debt restructuring, the projections prepared by the Directors and review of future opportunities once the debt restructuring is completed, the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is dependent on the finalization of the debt restructuring, and the cash flows generated from the interest in the Orlando field. In the event, that the Group is unable to continue to trade, significant downward adjustments would be required to the fair value of the Group's economic interest in the Orlando asset to present the value of these assets on a break-up basis.
Highlights for Q1 2025 were:
Operating loss was DKK 2.5MM
Net loss was DKK 2.3MM
Net assets/share-holders equity was DKK -115.1MM
Bank debt was DKK 59.4MM
The Board will prioritize finalization of the debt restructuring. Pending finalization of debt solution, the Group will be actively pursuing growth through participation in production or near production assets in low political risk countries in the Northern Hemisphere.
