North Sea

On 16 March 2026, DNO announced a non-cash swap of Norwegian Continental Shelf

assets with Equinor Energy AS covering DNO's stakes in four non-core discoveries

in exchange for interests in the Kvitebjørn area in the Northern North Sea. The

swap accelerates production from discoveries in DNO's portfolio.

Post quarter end, DNO announced start-up of the Symra field offshore Norway nine

months ahead of schedule. The field is expected to deliver 4,000-5,000 boepd net

to DNO at plateau.

DNO did not participate in any exploration wells in the quarter, but plans to

drill seven exploration or appraisal wells on the Norwegian Continental Shelf

later this year.

Kurdistan

Two wells drilled in December 2025 and January 2026 were brought on production

in the Tawke field early in the first quarter. But immediately following the

start of the U.S.-Israeli air campaign against Iran on 28 February 2026, DNO

ceased production and drilling in Kurdistan as a temporary safety measure. On 9

April 2026, the Company restarted field operations, including workovers of

existing wells, and relaunched its previously announced eight-well drilling

campaign in preparation for resumption of production from the Tawke and

Peshkabir at stepped up rates.

Selected cash flow items

DNO's net entitlement production of oil from the Tawke license during the

quarter was sold to a local buyer. All payments continued to be received by the

Company in advance of oil deliveries.

In the first quarter, DNO paid a dividend of NOK 0.375 per share (totaling USD

38.5 million), which represents NOK 1.50 per share on an annualized basis. DNO

also paid taxes totaling USD 64 million in Norway related to installments for

taxable profit for 2025.
