Northsun Italia 2016 Results

Saffron Energy plc, the AIM listed natural gas producer and explorer with interest in northern Italy (AIM: SRON), announces the financial results for Northsun Italia Spa ("NSI") for the financial year to 31 December 2016. Saffron acquired 100% of NSI in January 2017 and subsequently completed an IPO of Saffron Energy on AIM on 24 February 2017.

Investors should note that a number of restructuring transactions mentioned in the document were completed in the period from December 2016 to February 2017 and these are set out in detail in the Company's AIM Admission Document.

During the period:

   -    In September 2016, NSI entered into a construction contract for the Bezzecca gas field 

- Production from the Sillaro gas field for 2016 was 4.4m cubic meters (gross) and, in December 2016, NSI acquired the remaining 35% of the Sillaro gas field it did not already own.

Subsequent to 31 December 2016, NSI has:

   -    Been acquired by Saffron, which then completed a GBP2.5m capital raising on 24 February 2017 
   -    Completed construction of the Bezzecca gas field 
   -    Extended its offtake agreement with Shell Italia to 1 October 2018 

- Repaid approximately EUR470k of short term shareholders' loans used to advance construction of Bezzecca and Sant'Alberto

Chief Executive Officer of Saffron Energy, Michael Masterman commented: "The results for NSI in 2016 reflect the now historic fully completed restructuring and associated asset value alignments that had to be undertaken in preparation for the successful IPO of Saffron Energy which was completed in February. Revenues and cash flows are expected to increase substantially with Bezzecca commencing production in April 2017 and Sant'Alberto at the end of 2017. Saffron is now in excellent shape going forward."

A full copy of the Northsun Italia Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 is available on the Company's website at www.saffronenergy.co.uk and an extract of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 is presented below.
