Q1 2026 earnings summary5 May, 2026

Executive summary

  • Achieved record quarterly net production of ~75,000 boepd in Q1 2026, up 25% year-over-year, driven by GTA ramp-up and new Jubilee wells.

  • Revenues reached $371 million, or $55.81/boe, despite lower realized prices due to a higher gas mix.

  • Net loss widened to $225.6M, mainly due to a $252M derivatives loss and higher exploration expenses.

  • Operating costs fell 22% year-over-year to $131 million ($19.66/boe), with further reductions targeted.

  • Net debt reduced by ~7% versus year-end 2025; full-year debt reduction target raised to 20%.

Financial highlights

  • Q1 2026 production reached ~75,000 boepd, a record, with realized price at $55.81/boe, down from $65.27/boe in Q1 2025.

  • Operating costs per boe dropped to $19.66, nearly halved year-over-year.

  • Net cash from operating activities was $107 million; liquidity at quarter-end was ~$500 million.

Outlook and guidance

  • FY 2026 production guidance: 70,000–78,000 boepd; Q2 expected slightly lower due to GTA seasonality.

  • FY 2026 capex guidance unchanged at $350 million, focused on infill drilling and development.

  • Opex guidance: $15.50–$22.00/boe; DD&A: $15.50–$20.00/boe.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
