THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF REGULATION 11 OF THE MARKET ABUSE (AMMENT) (EU EXIT) REGULATIONS 2019/310
Baron Oil Plc
("Baron", or the "Company")
Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2023
Baron Oil Plc (AIM: BOIL), the AIM-quoted oil and gas exploration and appraisal company focused on assets in SE Asia and the UK, is pleased to announce its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2023.
Chief Executive's Statement
Timor-Leste TL-SO-19-16 PSC ("Chuditch PSC" or "PSC") (Baron 75% interest)
The Company's strategic and operational priority this year continues to be to prepare for the drilling and testing of an appraisal well on the Chuditch-1 gas discovery. Success here will prove up the commerciality of the 1,165 Bcf of gas (194MMboe) gross Pmean Contingent Resources in the field and de-risk an additional 1,651 Bcf (275MMboe) of gross Pmean Prospective Resources. The granting of a further six-month PSC extension in June 2023 demonstrates the strength of our relationships in Dili.
Our ongoing discussions with potential funding partners provide additional affirmation that the technical case is robust and there is alignment on the requirement for drilling an appraisal well on Chuditch, followed by additional exploration activities to delineate the total on block gas resources for this LNG scale project.
Technical activities during 2023 have been focused on further detailed interrogation of our data, to identify optimal candidate locations for Chuditch appraisal drilling, including additional geophysical work and environmental impact studies. Based on these studies, we have selected a preferred appraisal drilling location, which is approximately 4.8km from the Chuditch-1 discovery well. This represents a substantial step-out, illustrating the size of the field and our confidence in the reprocessed seismic datasets. This location is now being input into the detailed well planning programme. In anticipation of the proposed drilling of an appraisal well, the Company is in discussions with various contractors and is actively assessing the availability of suitable rigs, equipment and personnel.
Dunrobin (UKCS P2478) - Reabold (Admin.) 36%; Baron 32%; Upland Resources 32%
The publication of the CPR by RPS Group in February 2023 provided independent confirmation of the Company's belief that the western part of the Dunrobin complex had matured into a drillable prospect where a relatively low-cost exploration well can target more than 100 MMbbl of gross Pmean Prospective Resources with modest geological risk.
In July 2023, post period end, the joint venture announced that it had been granted a two-year extension to Phase A of the licence by the UK North Sea Transition Authority ("NSTA"). The additional commitment is to acquire a minimum of 30 square kilometres of 3D seismic data which will complete the 3D coverage over the Dunrobin West prospect.
Plans for execution of this new seismic programme during the first half of next year are underway with contractors, stakeholders and the NSTA. On completion of this work, aimed primarily at further reducing pre-drill risks and volumetric uncertainty, the partners intend to re-engage with potentially interested third parties in respect of the drilling of an exploration well. A 'Drill or Drop' decision on P2478 is now required on or before 14 July 2025.
New Ventures
Baron continues to pursue additional new venture opportunities, to enhance and complement the existing portfolio. In particular, we await the outcome of the UK 33rd Round of Licensing where we participated in a licence application as a non-operating partner. The NSTA has recently indicated that any offer would be made before the end of 2023.
Corporate
The net loss after finance costs and tax of GBP847,000 (30 June 2022: net loss of GBP419,000; year to 31 December 2022: net loss of GBP1,387,000), represented a loss of 0.004p per share (30 June 2022: 0.003p; year to 31 December 2022: 0.010p).
We continue to build out our operations, either in support of existing projects or in the pursuit of new opportunities. We are able to do this as the Company has a well-funded balance sheet which more than covers our current activities and commitments. Available cash (excluding monies held as security for the bank guarantee in Timor-Leste) as at 30 June 2023 was GBP4,619,000 (30 June 2022: GBP2,365,000; 31 December 2022: GBP5,807,000).
On 1 July 2023, Dr. Andy Butler joined the Board as Director, Asia Pacific. He has been closely associated with Baron and Chuditch from the outset through our initial new venture partnership to the capture and de-risking of the TL-SO-19-16 PSC in Timor-Leste. He adds technical and commercial capacity to the Board as well as providing access and expertise in Asia. Andy continues to manage the Timor-Leste project.
During August 2023, we completed the switch over of the US$1m Bank Guarantee ("BG") for the Chuditch PSC from United Overseas Bank Limited of Singapore to ANZ Banking Group Limited in Timor-Leste. In line with its full ownership of both SundaGas (Timor-Leste Sahul) Pte. Ltd. and SundaGas Banda Unipessoal Lda., Baron has provided 100% of the funds required for the BG.
John Wakefield, Non-Executive Chairman, commented:
"All of our efforts are currently focused on the Chuditch PSC drilling decision to be made late in 2023 for a Chuditch-1 appraisal well. We are making good progress and are in advanced discussions with a number of potential funding partners. We look forward to updating shareholders as soon as we are able."

Glossary
Bcf Billion standard cubic feet of gas. Contingent Resources Those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations by application of development projects, but which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable owing to one or more contingencies. LNG Liquefied natural gas Mean or Pmean Reflects a mid-case volume estimate of resource derived using probabilistic methodology. This is the mean of the probability distribution for the resource estimates and may be skewed by resource numbers with relatively low probabilities. MMbbl Million barrels of oil MMboe Million barrels of oil equivalent. Volume derived by dividing the estimate of the volume of natural gas in billion cubic feet by six in order to convert it to an equivalent in million barrels of oil and, where relevant, adding this to an estimate of the volume of oil in millions of barrels. Prospective Resources Quantities of petroleum that are estimated to exist originally in naturally occurring reservoirs, as of a given date. Crude oil in-place, natural gas in-place, and natural bitumen in-place are defined in the same manner. SPE PRMS The Society of Petroleum Engineers' ("SPE") Petroleum Resources Management System ("PRMS"): a system developed for consistent and reliable definition, classification, and estimation of hydrocarbon resources prepared by the Oil and Gas Reserves Committee of SPE and approved by the SPE Board in June 2018 following input from six sponsoring societies: the World Petroleum Council, the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers, the Society of Exploration Geophysicists, the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, and the Society of Petrophysicists and Well Log Analysts.

Notes to the Interim Financial Information
1. General Information
Baron Oil Plc is a company incorporated in England and Wales and quoted on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange. The registered office address is Finsgate, 5-7 Cranwood Street, London EC1V 9EE.
The principal activity of the Group is that of oil and gas exploration and appraisal.
This financial information is a condensed set of financial statements and is prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 and does not include all the information and disclosures required in annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. The financial information for the six months to 30 June 2023 is unaudited and does not comprise statutory financial statements within the meaning of Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006.
Statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, prepared under UK-adopted IFRS, were approved by the Board of Directors on 22 May 2023 and delivered to the Registrar of Companies.
2. Basis of Preparation
This consolidated interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and IFRIC interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and on the historical cost basis, using the accounting policies which are consistent with those set out in the Company's Annual Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. This interim financial information for the six months to 30 June 2023, which complies with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting', was approved by the Board on 22 September 2023.
3. Accounting Policies
The accounting policies applied for the six months to 30 June 2023 are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022, as described in those annual financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the period. The nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are continually reviewed and revised as necessary. Whilst every effort is made to ensure that such estimates and assumptions are reasonable, by their nature they are uncertain, and as such, changes in estimates and assumptions may have a material impact in the financial information.

Performance bond guarantee deposit The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, SundaGas Banda Unipessoal, Lda ("Banda"), has provided a performance guarantee to Autoridade Nacional do Petróleo ("ANP"), formerly known as Autoridade Nacional do Petróleo e Minerais ("ANPM"), in respect of the offshore Timor-Leste TL-SO-19-16 Production Sharing Contract ("PSC"). This performance guarantee was secured by a bank guarantee given by United Overseas Bank Limited of Singapore ("UOB") backed by a cash deposit of US$1 million. This arrangement was originally put in place in November 2019 at the outset of the PSC, was extended in November 2022, and expired on 1 August 2023. Banda replaced this guarantee on expiry with a new guarantee secured by a bank deposit of the same amount given by The Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited ("ANZ"), which expires on 1 February 2024. It is anticipated that the bank guarantee will be released following the conclusion of the current phase of the PSC which is currently 18 December 2023 as the Directors consider that all work commitments to the end of the current phase will have been met. The original guarantee was set up by SundaGas Pte. Ltd ("SGPL"), the former owners of Banda, and remained in their name beyond the acquisition of Banda by the Company, so as not to disrupt the contractual position of the PSC. As a result, on expiry the bond was initially released to SGPL which in turn released funds to Banda on 1 August 2023. 10. Called up Share Capital On 23 February 2023, the Company issued 62,500,000 Ordinary Shares of 0.025p each at an issue price of 0.1p per share following the exercise of options, yielding net proceeds after costs of GBP50,000. 11.

Ltd, a company in which Dr. Andrew Butler, a director of TLS, held a significant interest The directors' aggregate remuneration, associated benefits and share-based payments in respect of qualifying services during the period amounted to GBP308,000 (30 June 2022: GBP161,000, 31 December 2022: GBP390,000). During the period, key management personnel did not subscribe to any shares in the Company, nor were any options to subscribe to new shares granted. During 2022, key management personnel subscribed for new ordinary shares of GBP0.00025 each in the Company as part of placings and subscriptions of new ordinary shares as follows.

On 25 November 2022, the Company assumed 100% of the collateral for a US$1 million amount (the "Deposit") in relation to the performance bank guarantee arrangements connected to the Chuditch PSC (the "Guarantee"), by providing approximately US$667,000 to SundaGas Pte. Ltd ("SGPL") to replace the two thirds contribution (approximately US$667,000) previously made by SGPL, which was the other indirect shareholder in SundaGas Banda Unipessoal Lda. until 18 June 2021. The relationship agreement between SGPL, its principals and Baron as originally announced on 18 June 2021 (the "Relationship Agreement") was also varied so that Baron is entitled to all the bene t of and rights to the return of the Deposit should it be released or when the Guarantee expires in due course on 1 August 2023. The changes to the provision of the funds for the Deposit and the variations to the Relationship Agreement were deemed to be related party transactions pursuant to the AIM Rules for Companies. The Guarantee was released on expiry and the deposit was returned to Baron in full on 1 August 2023. See also note 9 above. 13. Events after the reporting period Following the extension to the second contract year of the TL-SO-19-16 Production Sharing Contract offshore Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, announced by the Company on 2 June 2023, the Company entered into a replacement performance guarantee secured by a bank guarantee given by The Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited ("ANZ") backed by a cash deposit of US$1 million. See note 9 for further details. On 12 July 2023, the Company announced that a two year extension to Phase A of Licence P2478, in which the Company holds a 32% interest, was granted by the North Sea Transition Authority. As a result, a "drill or drop" decision is now required on or before 14 July 2025. 14. Financial Information The unaudited interim financial information for period ended 30 June 2023 does not constitute statutory financial statements within the meaning of Section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. The comparative figures for the year ended 31 December 2022 are extracted from the statutory financial statements which have been filed with the Registrar of Companies and which contain an unqualified audit report and did not contain statements under Section 498 to 502 of the Companies Act 2006.
