condensate.
· Gas sales of 4.98 million therms were achieved in the Quarter from
the Saltfleetby Field.
· Estimated revenues of £4.12m for the Quarter.

management, and optimisation of Booster Compressor operations at lower

Production and Operations Update
Saltfleetby
Gas sales from the Saltfleetby Field were 4.98 million therms in aggregate
during October, November and December 2025, compared to 4.16 million therms
sold in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of circa 19%. Fourth quarter
2025 production equates to an average of 1.66 million therms per month (up
from 1.39 million therms per month in the third quarter of 2025). Gas
condensate (liquid) production averaged 84bbl/day, up circa 20.9% against an
average of 69.5 bbl/day in the third quarter 2025. Saltfleetby operational
efficiency was 94% for the Quarter, up from 87% in the third quarter 2025.
Higher production at Saltfleetby during the Quarter reflects increased
equipment uptime, improved well performance, enhanced well management, and
optimisation of Booster Compressor operations at lower wellhead pressures.
Focus during the quarter was given to preparation for the well workovers on
two of the three producing wells with detailed reviews of site readiness and
workover procedures to minimise the production impact of the well
interventions whilst ensuring the workovers deliver improvements in well
performance.
Successful Phase 1 of Saltfleetby Well Workovers
Coil tubing operations have been successfully completed on Saltfleetby-B2
where the Company cleaned and stimulated the well with an acid and mutual
solvent treatment. We are now in a flowback phase of the operation with gas,
condensate and water flowing back to the production facility. Initial results
are positive; however, as referenced in the initial RNS, the well requires
time for production to stabilise post-workover before the full quantum of
production uplift can be assessed. The workover spread has been mobilised to
Saltfleetby-B7, with Phase 2 of the workover operations having commenced on 15
January 2026. As previously advised, the Company expects to be in a position
to assess the results of the workovers in March following the post workover
clean up phase.
Brockham
Oil volumes produced from the Brockham Field equalled 4,577 barrels in
aggregate for the months of October, November and December 2025, with an
average of 50 bbl/day. This is an increase of circa 26.0% compared to 3,632
barrels for the third quarter of 2025 averaging 39 bbl/day. Brockham
operational efficiency was 99% for the Quarter, down from 100% in the third
quarter. Improvements in production rates have been made through operational
optimisation and a reducing water cut.
Finance Update
Estimated revenues during the quarter were £4.12m (Quarter 3: £3.21m), a
circa 28% increase on the third quarter due principally to higher production
volumes.
As previously advised, low priced legacy hedging volumes rolled off in June
2025. Hedged volume for the quarter was 3.22 million therms at an average
price of £0.91 per therm, resulting in a hedging profit of £0.539m during
the quarter.
Further to previous announcements (most recently 20 November 2025), Angus
Energy confirms that positive discussions with its creditors regarding
restructuring of its debt remain ongoing. While the Board is encouraged in
respect of the continued progress in these discussions, the Company cautions
that if a suitable agreement is not reached, it would create a material
uncertainty around the Company's ability to continue to operate as a going
concern. The Company will inform the market once an agreement has been reached
and the terms of such agreement, and in the meantime continues to carefully
manage its working capital position in conjunction with its lenders.
The Company's shares are expected to remain suspended from trading on AIM
pending the conclusion of its financial restructuring.
