INTERIM REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
STRATEGIC REVIEW
The continuing focus of the Directors is to secure suitable oil and gas assets
in Southeast Asia, that will deliver value and represent an appropriate basis
to build on the Company's objective to become a full-cycle E&P company.
Southeast Asia is home to over 680 million people, accounting for roughly 8.5%
of the world's population and making it one of the most populous regions in
the world. With a growing middle class, expanding cities, and improving living
standards, the region's population is expected to increase steadily over the
coming decades. This demographic growth is closely tied to rising energy
needs, as more people gain access to electricity, transportation, and modern
infrastructure.
Economically, Southeast Asia is a powerhouse of growth, driven by
manufacturing, trade, and a booming services sector. The region is
experiencing robust GDP growth, while regional integration through initiatives
such as the ASEAN Economic Community is strengthening cross-border cooperation
and investment. This economic expansion is a major driver of rising energy
consumption, particularly in industrial and urban areas.
As a result, primary energy demand in Southeast Asia is projected to rise
sharply through 2050, with the region becoming one of the largest contributors
to global energy demand growth. The need for reliable, affordable, and cleaner
energy sources is more pressing than ever, particularly as countries aim to
balance economic development with environmental sustainability and energy
security.
Natural gas is expected to play a critical role. According to Wood Mackenzie,
natural gas could account for up to 30% of the region's primary energy mix by
2050. With demand set to outpace both oil and coal, gas is increasingly seen
as a transitional fuel that can support industrial activity, power generation,
and emissions reduction. Countries such as Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and
the Philippines are investing in gas infrastructure, including pipelines, LNG
terminals, and gas-fired power plants, to secure long-term supply and reduce
reliance on more carbon-intensive fuels.
In this context, Seascape is well-positioned to help meet regional energy
demands. The Company has successfully built a portfolio of high-quality,
gas-weighted development assets offshore Malaysia-highlighting its ability to
generate significant value by leveraging its core technical strengths and
regional relationships. As these projects advance toward production, Seascape
will also seek to capitalize on its competitive advantages to further expand
our portfolio both in Malaysia and across the region.
OPERATIONS AND ACTIVITY
Contingent and Prospective Resources
In August, the Company published details of its Contingent and Prospective
Resources from a Competent Person's Report ("CPR") commissioned from Sproule
ERCE covering the Temaris Cluster ("Temaris", 100% operated) and the priority
fields in the DEWA Complex Cluster ("DEWA", 28%).
The CPR is seen as an important independent third-party verification of
Seascape's resources figures. The report confirms (and in the case of Temaris,
upgrades) management's technical view of resources at the time of license
application. Importantly, the CPR highlights new prospective potential in the
recently awarded Temaris block.
The highlights of the CPR are as follows:
· Total net 2C Contingent Resources of 63 mmboe (97% gas), up from nil
in past 12 months
· Total unrisked net mean Prospective Resources of 281 mmboe (95% gas),
an increase of 69% since completion of the Block 2A farm-down in Q1 2025
· Temaris PSC net 2C Contingent Resources of 276 bcf vs 250 bcf
estimated at award
· Additional Temaris PSC mean Prospective Resources of 683 bcf (114
mmboe) located in amplitude-supported prospects analogous to the existing
discoveries

Temaris Cluster (100% operated) In June Seascape was awarded a 100% operated
interest in Temaris in the Malaysia Bid Round 2025. The acreage includes two
gas discoveries in shallow water (~70 metres) offshore Peninsular Malaysia on
the western flank of the Malay basin and covers an area of around 1,200 km2.
The main discovery, Tembakau, was originally made in 2012 and appraised in
2014 and benefits from an extensive dataset including full 3D seismic
coverage, well logs, DSTs and extensive well core. Tembakau is located near
to infrastructure with the closest producing gas field ~50 km away from the
field.
The Tembakau field comprises Early-Mid Miocene channel sandstone reservoirs
which are clearly imaged on 3D seismic and exhibit a strong amplitude
response. The field has excellent reservoir properties with porosities of 20%
to 35% and permeabilities of over one Darcy and contains dry gas with very low
levels of impurities. The Tembakau-2 well was tested and produced from the
I-10 and I-20 reservoirs, with both reservoirs flowing at gas rates of 16
mmscfd, constrained by the well test equipment used.
The smaller Mengkuang discovery is located 30 kms to the northeast of Tembakau
in high-quality mid-Miocene sandstones and also demonstrates strong seismic
amplitude response. The field is split into several lobes and benefits from a
good dataset though a DST was not performed at the time of discovery.
In addition to the existing Tembakau and Mengkuang discoveries, significant
exploration upside exists in the stacked channel sandstone reservoirs which
continue across the Temaris PSC. As part of the CPR, Sproule ERCE has also
provided Prospective Resources estimates of the four main prospects on the
block which are located close to the Tembakau discovery.
All prospects exhibit the seismic amplitude characteristics seen at Tembakau
and Mengkuang, with Seascape interpreting the largest prospect, Allamanda, to
exhibit a particularly robust and extensive amplitude anomaly.
Seascape anticipates the Temaris PSC prospects to be further derisked
following the 3D seismic reprocessing currently underway on the Temaris block.
DEWA Cluster (28%): Seascape was awarded the DEWA Complex Cluster under the
Malaysia Bid Round Plus in October 2024 and is comprised of 12 gas discoveries
in shallow water (40-50 metres) located off the coast of Sarawak, Malaysia.
Six fields (D30, Danau, D41, D41W, Dafnah West, Dana) have been prioritised
for the initial phases of development ("DEWA Priority") and are broadly
characterised as having stacked, clastic reservoirs with gas columns up to 110
metres and good hydrocarbon mobilities. The fields benefit from a significant
dataset including 35 well penetrations, well logs, multiple DSTs and MDTs and
extensive 3D seismic coverage.
The Sproule-ERCE review also identified additional upside in-and-around the
DEWA Complex for future pursuit. This includes an additional 7 bcf of unrisked
net mean Prospective Resources (25 bcf gross) in an undrilled fault block on
Dafnah West.
Block 2A, offshore Sarawak, Malaysia (10%): Block 2A is located in the North
Luconia hydrocarbon province covering approximately 12,000 km(2) in water
depths between 100 -1,400 metres. Block 2A contains the world-class Kertang
prospect, located across four Oligo-Miocene reservoirs, which is a
well-defined, large, four-way dip structural high with over 220 km2 of closure
and exhibits direct hydrocarbon indicators (DHIs) including an overlying gas
cloud feature and amplitude bright.
In March this year, Seascape completed the farm-out of Block 2A to INPEX
CORPORATION. In return for cash consideration of US$10 million with the
reimbursement of certain historic costs of ~US$1.0 million, the Company
assigned a 42.5% interest in Block 2A and retained a fully carried 10%
interest through the remaining exploration phase which includes one firm
wildcat well and one contingent appraisal well (subject to a commercial
discovery). Since the year end, this transaction completed with the Company
receiving cash consideration of US$10 million. In the event of commercial
discovery, the Company will receive further contingent cash consideration of
US$10 million.
A firm well commitment is expected to be made imminently with the drilling of
the Kertang prospect being an important part of INPEX CORPORATION's
multi-well, deepwater drilling campaign in Sarawak during 2026/2027.
Seascape still retains a material exposure to the Kertang prospect with net
unrisked mean prospective resources of ~908 bcf and ~15 mmbbl of NGL (~166
mmboe).
Financial Results
At 30 June 2025 the Group had net cash reserves totalling £8.6 million (1H
2024: £1.3 million) of which £2.0 million is restricted and relates to
cash-backed collateralised guarantees provided as security for future work
programmes in Malaysia.
Exploration and evaluation assets of £500k (1H 2024: £700k) represent
capitalised expenditures incurred within Malaysia and are deemed fully
recoverable at the balance sheet date.
Administrative costs for the period totalled £2.8 million (1H 2024: £3.5
million), of which £0.9 million are considered non-recurring. These
non-recurring costs include costs associated with farming down the Malaysian
2A PSC to INPEX, the application of and securing the Temaris PSC, other new
venture appraisal costs, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and
unrealised foreign exchange losses. When adjusting for these items of
non-recurring expenditure, the administrative expenses for the periods are
£1.9 million (1H 2024: £2.5 million).
The total profit for the period was £5.7 million (1H 2024: loss of £12.5
million) and comprised a loss of £2.5 million (2024: £2.7 million) from
continuing operations and a profit of £8.2 million (1H 2024: loss of £9.7
million) from discontinuing operations.
The total comprehensive profit for the period included currency translation
differences that were taken directly to reserves of £73k (1H 2024: £800k)
and totalled £5.8 million (1H 2024: loss of £13.4 million).
Statement of going concern
The Directors have completed the going concern assessment, taking into account
cash flow forecasts up to the end of 2026, sensitivities to those forecasts
and stress tests to assess whether the Company and its subsidiaries (together
the Group) are a going concern. Having undertaken careful enquiry, the
directors are of the view that the Group will not need to access additional
funds during the period to meet its current work programme and budget.
In the event that the business is presented with opportunities to materially
grow its portfolio then it is anticipated that the associated funds will be
sourced through asset disposals / farm downs, issuing new equity or a
combination of these actions. To the extent that growth opportunities will
support debt, this will be considered where appropriate, for example, to
support production acquisitions.

statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of
the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December
2024. The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or
amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.
Several amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2025, but
do not have an impact on the interim financial statements of the Group.
1.3 Going concern
The Directors have completed the going concern assessment, taking into account
cash flow forecasts up to the end of 2026, sensitivities to those forecasts
and stress tests to assess whether the Company and its subsidiaries (together
the Group) is a going concern. Having undertaken careful enquiry, the
directors are of the view that the Group will not need to access additional
funds during the period to meet its current work programme and budget.
In the event that the business is presented with opportunities to materially
grow its portfolio then it is anticipated that the associated funds will be
sourced through asset disposals / farm downs, issuing new equity or a
combination of these actions. To the extent that growth opportunities will
support debt, this will be considered where appropriate for example to support
production acquisition.
1.4 Discontinued operations
In accordance with IFRS 5 "Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued
operations" the net results relating to the disposal group are presented
within discontinued operations in the Income Statement. Please refer to note
10 for further details.
2. Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Group's accounting policies, the directors are
required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying
amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical
experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual
results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the
estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the
period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current
and future periods.
The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a
material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are
outlined below.
Share-based payments
The fair value of share-based compensation expense arising from the Long-Term
Incentive Plan, the Co-investment Plan and the NED Long Term Incentive Plan
were estimated using the Black Scholes model and, where appropriate, the
average Monte Carlo fair values and is recognised in the statement of
comprehensive income from the date of grant over the vesting period with a
corresponding increase directly in equity. The Monte Carlo model projects and
averages the results for a range of potential outcomes for the vesting
conditions, the principal assumptions for which the Group using in the
estimation of the fair value are the historical 3 years share price volatility
and dividend yields. The Black Scholes model is similar to the Monte Carlo
model, but is more appropriate for estimating results with a single unknown
variable. The Company currently values its share-based payment awards using
the Black Scholes model.
Fair value of contingent consideration payable
Estimate and judgment was applied in fair valuing the contingent consideration
payable for the acquisition of SE 2A (previously Topaz Number One Limited) in
2023. Management applied judgement in determining the likelihood of all
possible scenarios and this was modelled into a weighted fair value
calculation, which was discounted, using an estimated discount rate, to
establish the current value of the contingent consideration payable to be
recognised. As disclosed in note 20, the contingent consideration was made up
of 3 tranches. Tranche 1 was settled in 2023 and tranche 2 was settled in 2025
upon the completion of the farmout of 2A PSC to INPEX. Only tranche 3 remains
as contingent on a successful hydrocarbon discovery over a certain volume
threshold and therefore subject to ongoing estimation and judgement.
3. Operating segment
During the period, the Group had two reportable operating segments: Malaysia
and Head Office (30 June 2024 and 31 December 2024: Malaysia, Norway and Head
Office). Non-current assets and operating liabilities are located in Malaysia,
whilst the majority of current assets are carried at Head Office. The Group
has not yet commenced production and therefore has no revenue. Each reportable
segment adopts the same accounting policies. The operating segment's operating
results are reviewed regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"),
who is the Group's CEO, to make decisions about resources to be allocated to
the segment and assess its performance, for which discrete financial
information is available.
In compliance with IFRS 8 'Operating Segments' the following table reconciles
the operational loss and the assets and liabilities of each reportable segment
with the consolidated figures presented in these Financial Statements.

shares of Seascape Energy Asia plc upon the farm out of the Company's interest
in the 2A PSC which occurred on 30 November 2024. Accordingly an issue of
278,870 new ordinary shares in the Company, was made on completion on 17 March
2025. This tranche has been fully settled and nothing further is payable with
respect to it.
Tranche 3 (part 1) is contingent on an exploration well announcement in excess
of 600bcf (well must commence drilling before 12 September 2028). The payment
will be equivalent of $1.0 million and will be settled in cash or allotment of
shares in the Company, at the discretion of the Company.
Tranche 3 (part 2) is contingent on the growth in the Company's share price.
The payment will be equivalent of up to $2.0 million, based on the table shown
below, and will be settled in cash or an allotment of shares in the Company at
its discretion.
Growth in Seascape Consideration
Shares Average Price % USD
0-9.9% 0% -
10-24.9% 33% 666,667
25-49.9% 67% 1,133,333
>=50% 100% 2,000,000
If a liquidity event occurs, involving the sale of SE 2A's share in the 2A PSC
then Tranche 3 will be calculated instead upon the proceeds of the liquidity
event, but capped at the total of $3.0 million, as above.
To calculate the fair value of the consideration at the time of the
acquisition of SE 2A, a base case, low case and liquidity case scenario were
risked, weighting and discounted, taking into account the expected chance of a
farm down, expected chance of >600bcf discovery and the expected impact on
the share price. Also included was the liquidity scenario where the chance
of a sale of the interest in the 2A PSC was estimated.
At the acquisition date the fair value of the contingent consideration was
calculated to be $300k (£200k). A change of probability of success by 5
percentage points would lead to a 33% change in the fair value consideration
of SE 2A, equivalent to USD $100k (£80k). As the plans for the drilling of
the exploration well on Block 2A firm up, the Company expects to increase the
probability of success and associated contingent liability.
