Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd.: Full Year Results
DUBLIN, IRELAND--(Marketwired - April 29, 2016) - Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:FO)(AIM:FOG)(ESM:FAC) is
pleased to announce its financial results for the year ended 31 December 2015.
The following should be read in conjunction with the complete audited Financial Statements and the accompanying
Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the three and twelve months ended 31 December 2015.
2015 Highlights:
Operational
=- Commencement of the Australian nine well exploration and appraisal
programme, with the drilling of Kalala S-1, Amungee NW-1 and Amungee NW-
1H with our joint venture partners Origin Resources Limited ("Origin")
(35%) and Sasol Petroleum Australia Limited ("Sasol") (35%).
=- Acceleration of Australian drilling programme with first horizontal well
(Amungee NW-1H) brought forward to 2015.
=- Encouraging results from the drilling of the first three Australian
wells indicating favourable shale properties with excellent gas shows
indicating the likelihood of high levels of gas saturations.
=- Preparation for 2016 Beetaloo Basin Australia, drilling programme at an
advance stage.
=- Processing of Falcon's exploration license application in South Africa's
Karoo Basin continues to progress and the South African Department of
Mineral Resources ("DMR") is expected to issue licences in 2016.
=- Conclusion of the termination agreement with Naftna Industrija Srbije
jsc ("NIS"). NIS paid Falcon US$3.7 million in December 2015 in
fulfilment of its contractual obligations.
Financial
=- Strong financial position, debt free with cash of US$12.7 million at 31
December 2015.
=- Continued focus on strict cost management and efficient operation of the
portfolio.
=- General & administrative expenses decreased 38% year on year to US$2.5
million (31 December 2014: US$4 million).
Philip O'Quigley, CEO of Falcon Oil & Gas commented:
"Operationally it has been a busy twelve months for Falcon, with the drilling of the joint venture's first
three wells in the Beetaloo Basin. Results have been encouraging with excellent gas shows encountered
signalling the likelihood of high level of gas saturation which is a strong indication of the potential
prospectively.
As announced yesterday, planning and preparation is underway for our 2016 Beetaloo basin programme. We look
forward to updating the market as this progresses.
We continue to make solid progress in South Africa and were encouraged with the recent confirmation by the
Petroleum Agency of South Africa that it expects to finalise a recommendation to the Minister of Mineral
Resources on Falcon's application for a shale gas exploration licence in South Africa's Karoo Basin, by May
2016. We remain optimistic on securing a shale gas exploration licence in South Africa's Karoo Basin in 2016.
Falcon is uniquely placed in this challenging oil price environment with its strong cash position, fully funded
drilling programme and high quality assets.
With our fully funded 2016 Australian drilling campaign on track to commence next month and a decision expected
from the South African DMR later this year, Falcon's shareholders can look forward to another exciting year of
exploration activity which has the potential to transform the value of your company."
