The board of directors has decided to initiate a share repurchase programme
Tethys Oil is a Swedish energy company focused on exploration and production of oil and natural gas. Tethys Oil's core area is Oman, where the company is one of the largest onshore oil and gas concession holders. Tethys Oil also has exploration and production assets onshore Lithuania and France. The shares are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm (TETY).
We are proud to present another record quarter for Tethys Oil. In the third quarter 2014, we produced more oil than ever before which resulted in quarterly net sales of MSEK 296. Our EBITDA for the quarter amounted to MSEK 232 and our net result for the quarter amounted to MSEK 167. From the second to the third quarter, we have increased our oil production with 16 per cent, and we have been producing above 8,000 bopd every month in the third quarter. The crude production in September marks a new record of 8,404 bopd.
The drill bit also continues its work, both in the Lower Buah areas and within the Farha trend. The long awaited LE-1 exploration well has finished drilling and is currently being evaluated. And to complement the drill bit, a major seismic study in the central part of Block 4 is ongoing.
So from a company perspective, the third quarter was almost uninteresting steady she goes - more of the same and a new record sales and production. But the world around us did not stay the same. For the first time in years we have seen a significant movement in the oil price. This has not affected us yet, but our sales from December 2014 will be at a lower oil price. Is this a problem? For us no. Of course we will receive less cash with the lower oil price, but even at current oil prices, the company's focus on conventional and onshore activity yield ample cash flows. Our plans for the development of Block 3 and 4 do not change at these prices.
Our record financial position is not only sufficient to continue our work programmes, but also provides room to implement a buyback program. In effect, with almost MSEK 200 cash on hand at the end of the third quarter and an untapped credit line of MUSD 100 - a lower oil price may very well be more of an opportunity than a problem. I will not go as far as to say that we welcome a lower oil price, even temporarily, but it will create opportunities that were not around when prices were higher.
So stay with us - the future continues to be promising!
Stockholm in November 2014
Magnus Nordin Managing Director
Production
Tethys Oil's primary production comes from the Sultanate of Oman where the company has a 30 per cent interest in an onshore producing licence, Blocks 3 and 4. Through an indirect interest of 25 per cent of the Gargzdai licence in Lithuania, Tethys Oil has supplemental production.
Production from Blocks 3 and 4 onshore Oman derives from two fields - the Farha South and Saiwan East oil fields - and from the Lower Buah structures within Block 4 exploration areas. The production development has mainly been driven by continued implementation of the water injection programme on Farha South and even more importantly from the successful exploration and appraisal results from the Lower Buah structures. Production from Oman accounts for 99 per cent of total production.
During the first nine months of 2014, the Blocks 3 and 4 Joint Venture's share of production has continued to be 52 per cent of total production, which is the highest possible share of production according to the terms of the EPSA. Tethys Oil's share of the Joint Venture is 30 per cent. For further information regarding Tethys Oil's share of production, please refer to the Annual Report 2013. The high share of production will remain as long as there are remaining recoverable costs, which are created through further investments in the blocks. The estimated recoverable costs as per 30 September 2014, net to Tethys Oil, amounts to MUSD 43.
Production from the Gargzdai licence in western Lithuania is in line with the previous quarter mainly due to infill wells, which have stabilized production. Tethys Oil's interest in Gargzdai is held indirectly through Odin Energi A/S, an associated Danish company.

Average daily and cumulative monthly production net to Tethys Oil during 2013 and 2014
During the third quarter 2014, Tethys Oil sold 399,352 barrels of oil after government take from Block 3 and 4 in Oman compared to 350,059 during second quarter 2014. This resulted in net sales during the third quarter 2014 of MSEK 296 compared to MSEK 245 during the second quarter 2014. The average selling price per barrel amounted to USD 107.57 per barrel during the third quarter 2014 compared to USD 105.89 per barrel during the second quarter 2014.
The growth in net sales between third and second quarter 2014 amounts to 21 per cent. This growth is explained by:
The table below presents the over/underlift development during the year. The movement during the third quarter has been significantly lower compared to first and second quarter movement.
| 30 September | 30 June | 31 March | 31 December | |

| Over-/(underlift) | (27,188) | (30,105) | (43,428) | (13,261) |
The selling price received by Tethys Oil is determined for each calendar month based on the monthly average price of the two month future contract of Omani blend (see chart below) as traded on Dubai Mercantile Exchange. During the third quarter 2014, prices have been trading between high levels of USD 111.18 per barrel and low levels of USD 103.87 per barrel. Third quarter 2014 prices are in line with the previous quarters.

Tethys Oil reports a net result after tax for the third quarter 2014 of MSEK 167, representing earnings per share of SEK 4.71. The result for the third quarter 2014 is up 56 per cent compared to the second quarter 2014 mainly due to strong sales development, lower depletion, depreciation and amortisation ("DD&A") per barrel and significantly lower financial expenditures following the refinancing of the previous bond loan to a loan facility and the transition from a net debt position to a net cash position. The result for the first nine months 2014 is 155 per cent higher than the same period 2013, adjusted for the one-off bonus received from Mitsui during 2013, following the approval of the Field Development Plan.
Tethys Oil holds indirect interest in the three Lithuanian licences; Gargzdai, Rietavas and Raiseiniai. Tethys Oil holds a share in these licences through the interests in associated companies Jylland Olie and Odin Energi. Total result from Tethys Oils shares in associated companies Odin Energi and Jylland Olie during the third quarter 2014 amounted to MSEK 0.1 compared to MSEK 1 during the second quarter 2014.
The result for the first nine months 2014 has been impacted by net foreign exchange losses and interest on long term debt. The currency exchange effect of the group amounts to MSEK 13 and most of the effect relates to the stronger US dollar in relation to the Swedish krona. Currency translation differences between the parent company and subsidiaries are non-cash related items. Interest on long term debt amounted to MSEK 30 and other financial expenditures amounted to MSEK 15. The currency exchange effect and interest on long term debt is part of net financial result amounting to MSEK 57 for the third quarter. The financial result of the first nine months 2014 is affected by the bond redemption conducted during the second quarter 2014. The total expenditures related to the bond loan amounted during the first nine months 2014 to MSEK 34, where the extraordinary effect of the early redemption, including extra interest payment and expensing all associated costs with the bond financing, amounted to MSEK 23.
DD&A for the third quarter 2014 amounted to MSEK 58 compared to MSEK 57 for the second quarter 2014 and is referable to depletion of oil and gas properties on Blocks 3&4. Despite higher production between the second and third quarter 2014, the DD&A amount is basically the same, due to the increase in reserves following the DeGolyer and MacNaughton reserves audit as per 30 June 2014. The result of this is a lower DD&A per barrel between the quarters.
Operating expenses (OPEX) amounted during the third quarter 2014 to MSEK 57 compared to MSEK 46 during the second quarter 2014. Operating expenses are related to oil and gas production on Block 3 and 4 in Oman, for example expenses for trucking, tariffs, supervision and administration etc. Furthermore, over and underlift adjustments are made within the Operating expenses category, in accordance with Tethys Oil's accounting principles. Due to an underlift position as per 30 September 2014 amounting to 27,188 barrels, the Operating expenses during the third quarter 2014 have been reduced by MSEK 1. On a produced barrel level, the Operating expenditures development is presented below in USD per barrel.
| Total OPEX, USD/barrel |
Third quarter 2014 | Second quarter 2014 | First quarter 2014 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10.8 | 10.6 | 15.2 |
The increase in OPEX during the third quarter compared to the second quarter 2014 is in line with the production development and the OPEX per barrel level is in line between the second and third quarter. OPEX during the first quarter 2014 was affected by late incoming expenses from 2013, which amounted to MSEK 14.
Administrative expenses amounted to MSEK 8 for the third quarter 2014 compared to MSEK 8 during second quarter 2014. Administrative expenses are mainly salaries, rents, listing costs and external services.
During the third quarter 2014, total investments amounted to MSEK 44 of which MSEK 43 relate to Blocks 3and4. A total of 8 wells were completed on the blocks during the third quarter. Two production wells were drilled on producing fault blocks in the Farha South field. Three wells were drilled in previously undrilled fault blocks along the Farha trend, of which one well discovered oil and has been put into production. The appraisal of the Lower Buah areas on Block 4 has continued with one new well. The well encountered oil and has been put into production. In addition, two water source wells for water injection system were completed during the quarter.
On the far field exploration front, LE-1 in the eastern part of Block 4 has finished drilling and the well is being evaluated. A major seismic study in central part of Block 4 is ongoing.
Discussions concerning the future of Block 15 are ongoing.

The book value of oil and gas properties includes currency exchange effects of MSEK 95, which are not cash related items and therefore not included in investments. For more information please see above under Result – Net financial result.
Tethys Oil's interests in three Lithuanian licences are held through two private Danish companies. For more information regarding the ownership structure, please refer to note 8. As per 30 September 2014 the shareholding in the two associated Danish companies, Odin Energi and Jylland Olie, amounted to MSEK 167. The book value has been affected by a depletion of MSEK 8. The depletion is made by applying the unit of production method (for more information please see Annual report 2013 page 60), where the depletion rate is determined by the production to reserves rate. Starting in the second quarter 2014 the above mentioned method is applied to the producing Lithuanian assets.
Tethys Oil's share of net profit during the third quarter 2014 from Odin Energi and Jylland Olie, which indirectly hold the Lithuanian licences, amounted to MSEK 0.1 compared to MSEK 1 during second quarter 2014. The third quarter 2014 result was mainly generated from selling 10,665 barrels (Tethys Oil's indirect share) at an average price of USD 107 per barrel, compared to 13,761 barrels at an average price of USD 111 per barrel during the second quarter 2014. Tethys Oil expects part of the cash flow from the indirectly held Lithuanian interests to be distributed to Tethys Oil in form of a dividend. During the second quarter 2014, Tethys Oil received a dividend from the Lithuanian assets of MSEK 11.
The drilling of infill wells has continued on the Gargzdai licence during the third quarter. Two work-over rigs are used to change and reinstall pumps. Potential enhanced recovery methods are being evaluated.
On the Rietavas licence, the work programme continues. Focus has been on 2D seismic while analysis and interpretation of cores continues. A new 40 square kilometres seismic 3D study is being planned in the Silale area in the western part of the licence.
The reefal prospects on the Raiseiniai licence mapped by last year's 3D seismic study have been further investigated through inversion analysis and six reefal prospects have been identified. Three wells are planned to be drilled back to back later this year or early next year.
Cash and bank as per 30 September 2014 amounted to MSEK 194 compared to MSEK 295 as per 31 December 2013. Net debt as per 30 September 2014 amounted to MSEK -161 (i.e. net cash position) compared to MSEK 127 as per 31 December 2013.
The decrease in liquidity is explained by the repayment of a bond loan with nominal value MSEK 400 which was conducted during the second quarter. The bond was replaced by a four-year, up to MUSD 100, senior revolving reserve based lending facility with BNP Paribas as facility agent. During the second quarter, Tethys exercised its option for early redemption of the bonds and redeemed all outstanding bonds. The early redemption price was 104.50 per cent of the nominal amount of the bonds plus accrued unpaid interest. The payment and redemption occurred 7 April 2014. The interest rate of the new credit facility is floating between LIBOR + 3.75 per cent to LIBOR + 4.00 per cent per annum, depending on the level of utilization of the facility. As per 30 September 2014, there was no outstanding debt, i.e. nothing was borrowed from the new credit facility.
The reduction of net debt during the first nine months 2014 is explained by the strong sales development on Blocks 3&4, which has been significantly higher than the oil and gas investments during the same period.
The development of Blocks 3&4continues, with a main focus on exploration, appraisal and a water injection programme to enhance production. Lead times to bring discoveries to production remain very short. Tethys Oil's share of the of the original total Joint Venture investment budget for 2014 on Blocks 3&4, amounted to around MSEK 400. Given the low investments in relation to budget so far during the nine months 2014, it seems unlikely that the full budget amount will be invested during 2014. Up until 30 September 2014 MSEK 164 has been invested in Blocks 3&4. Main reasons for investments being lower than budget are - some infrastructure investments have been pushed forward as the successful Lower Buah appraisal programme has impacted infrastructure planning
Tethys Oil's operations in Lithuania is expected to continue to be self-financed from oil production on the Gargzdai licence and financed by available cash in the associated Lithuanian companies.
A large part of cash and cash equivalents are kept in USD which has appreciated against SEK during the third quarter. The currency exchange effect on cash and cash equivalents amounted during the third quarter 2014 to MSEK 15.
As per 30 September 2014, Tethys Oil holds oil price put options (Brent) amounting to MSEK 0.9. The total number of outstanding put options are 195,000, equalling 65,000 options per month from October to December 2014. The options will expire each month and all have strike price USD 90 per barrel, where one option equals the right to sell one barrel. The put options were acquired to secure oil price at USD 90 per barrel without limiting upside potential should oil prices be higher at each monthly lifting. The acquisition of put options was made to match expected expenditures 2014. The average premium paid was USD 1.37 per barrel. The value of the put options as per 30 June 2014 amounted to MSEK 0.2 and during the third quarter 2014, 195,000 options have expired.
The Parent company reports a net result after tax for the third quarter 2014 amounting to MSEK -11 compared to MSEK -31 for the second quarter 2014. Administrative expenses amounted to MSEK 5 for the third quarter 2014 compared to MSEK 6 for the second quarter 2014. Net financial loss amounted to MSEK 4 during the third quarter 2014 compared to MSEK 23 for the second quarter 2014. The significant reduction of financial loss relate to the refinancing of the previous bond loan to a loan facility. The bond loan was held by the parent company and the new loan facility is held by the subsidiary Tethys Oil Blocks 3&4 Ltd.
As per 30 September 2014, the number of outstanding shares in Tethys Oil amount to 35,543,750, with a quota value of SEK 0.17. All shares represent one vote each. Tethys Oil does not have any incentive program for employees. There has been no change in the number of shares since 31 December 2013.

The Group's activities expose it to a number of risks and uncertainties which are continuously monitored and reviewed. The main risks and uncertainties are operational and financial risks described below.
At its current stage of development Tethys Oil is partly commercially producing oil and partly exploring for and appraising undeveloped known oil and/or natural gas accumulations. The operational risk is different in these different parts of Tethys Oil's operations. The main operational risk in exploration and appraisal activities is that the activities and investments made by Tethys Oil and its partners will not evolve into commercial reserves of oil and gas. The oil price is of significant importance to Tethys Oil in all parts of operations as income and profitability is and will be dependent on prices prevailing from time to time. Significantly lower oil prices will reduce current and expected profitability in projects and can make projects sub economic. Lower oil prices could also decrease the industry interest in Tethys Oil's projects regarding farmout or sale of assets. As per 30 September 2014, Tethys Oil owns 195,000 put options, equalling 65,000 options per month from October to December 2014. These put options have a strike price of USD 90 per barrel to secure oil price during 2014 without limiting any upside potential should market oil prices be higher. These put options therefore reduce the oil price risk during 2014 significantly.
Another operational risk factor is access to equipment in Tethys Oil's project. Especially in the drilling/development phase of a project the group is dependent on advanced equipment such as rigs, casing, pipes etc. A shortage of theses supplies can present difficulties for Tethys Oil to fulfil projects. Through its operations Tethys Oil is furthermore subject to political risk, environmental risk and the risk of not being able to retain key personnel.
By operating in several countries, Tethys Oil is exposed to fluctuations in a number of currencies. Income is and will also most likely be denominated in foreign currencies, US dollars in particular. Currently, Tethys Oil's investments are financed by cash flow from operations. The company has historically needed equity finance, debt finance and finance by asset divestments. It cannot be ruled out that additional capital could be needed to finance Tethys Oil's future operations and/or for acquisition of additional licences. The main risk is that this need may occur during less favourable market conditions.
A more detailed analysis of the Group's risks and uncertainties and how the Group addresses these risks, are given in the Annual report for 2013.

In accordance with the farmout agreement with Mitsui from 2010, Tethys Oil received from Mitsui a bonus amounting to MSEK 65 (MUSD 10) as commercial production exceeded 10,000 bopd for 30 consecutive days and following the approval of the Field Development Plan ("FDP") December 2012. The bonus was received during the first quarter 2013.
Parts of the administrative expenses in Tethys Oil are charged to oil and gas projects where the expenditures are capitalised. In case of Tethys Oil being the operator, these administrative expenditures are, through the above, also funded by the
partners. The chargeout to the projects where Tethys Oil is operator is presented in the consolidated income statement as Other income. All other internal chargeouts are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
As per 30 September 2014, Tethys Oil holds oil price put options (Brent) amounting to MSEK 0.9 compared to MSEK 0.2 as per 30 June 2014 and MSEK 4.8 as per 31 December 2013. The total numbers of put options are 195,000, equalling 65,000 options per month from October to December 2014. The options will expire for each month and all have strike price USD 90 per barrel. The put options were acquired to secure oil price at USD 90 per barrel without limiting upside potential should oil prices be higher.
The value of the put options are based on a fair market value at the end of a reporting period and any change to the previous valuation will be accounted for as a financial income or financial expenditure. The put options are acquired to secure oil price and thereby sales and hedge accounting in accordance with IAS 39 will not be applicable.

We have reviewed the condensed interim financial information (interim report) of Tethys Oil AB as of 30 September 2014 and the nine-month period then ended. The board of directors and the managing director are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, Review of Interim Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, ISA, and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Group, and with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, regarding the Parent Company.
