Interim Results

 

San Leon Energy, the AIM listed company focused on oil and gas development and appraisal in Africa and Europe, today announces its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2017, and provides an update on its indirect interest in OML 18, a world-class oil and gas block onshore Nigeria, and other assets.

 

Highlights

 

Corporate

 

·     US$20.6 million has been received to date in relation to the US$174.5 million Loan Notes. The Company is scheduled to be repaid approximately US$19 million per quarter from Q4 2017

·     The Company previously reached agreement with Avobone in November 2016, which was subsequently revised in June 2017, regarding payment for Avobone's exit from the Siekierki project in Poland. The remaining amount to be paid is approximately €14.7 million during October and November 2017

·     In December 2016, the Company announced the receipt of an approach from a possible offeror. In April 2017, we announced that we had signed confidentiality agreements and were in discussions with a further three entities, and in June 2017 we announced an offer, conditional on completing final due diligence, from China Great United Petroleum (Holding) Limited ("China Great"). China Great has remained in a dialogue with the Company and has advised that the delay in its due diligence has been due to it now being in discussions to bring in a large EPC partner to add value in midstream projects on OML 18. China Great will update the Company regarding progress in due course. There can be no certainty that any of these discussions will lead to a firm intention to make an offer

·     Nick Butler resigned as a Non-Executive Director from the Board effective on 6 September 2017. An executive search has been launched to appoint two new Non-Executive Directors

 

Operational

 

·     Contract is in place for San Leon's senior operational appointee into Eroton, with his arrival in Nigeria imminent

·     Eroton is the Operator of OML 18 while San Leon has a defined partner role under the Master Services Agreement. Plans from the 2016 Competent Persons Report (by Petrovision Energy Services Limited) (the "CPR") are being executed to optimise production using coiled tubing, electric line, and slickline. Challenges regarding pipeline loss allocation, downtime and slower-than-anticipated well work mean that current production is below the production and sales forecasts set out in the CPR, and those challenges are being addressed as they arise. 

·     The Orubiri Field came online in late 2016, and the Krakama Field was brought onto production in early 2017. The Buguma Field is expected to follow in Q4 2017 and will now be brought on by direct tie-back to the Krakama Field

·     Commencement of heavy workover and new well drilling on various OML 18 fields to boost production expected in Q4 2017

·     Eroton is near to completing an updated reserves report on OML 18

 

Financial

 

·     Loss for the period ended 30 June 2017 was €5.24m (2016: loss of €6.23m), of which €11.3m relates to a foreign exchange loss on the loan notes

·     Cash and cash equivalents as at 30 June 2017 of €0.3m (30 June 2016: €0.7m)

·     As at 27 September 2017:

US$20.6m has been received in relation to payments due to San Leon under the US$174.5m Loan Notes

€4.3m received from loans provided to San Leon

€8.175m has been paid to Avobone during 2017

€1.7m cash and cash equivalents

·     Under an agreement with Yorkville, as announced on the 22 June 2017, San Leon issued 6,254,905 new ordinary shares at a price per share of 32 pence with a value of US$2.6m

·     As announced on 19 September 2017, agreements were entered into for the sale of a majority of the Company's Polish assets, subject to certain conditions

·     Decision made to relinquish Sidi Moussa, offshore Morocco

 

 

Chief Executive Officer, Oisin Fanning, commented:

"The Company has three targeted cash flow streams from Nigeria: Loan Note repayments, dividends from production via the indirect equity interest in OML 18, and from the provision of drilling and workover rig services to Eroton under the Master Services Agreement. While well activity and dividends from production have been delayed for the reasons set out in the final results for the year ended 31 December 2016, the security package held by San Leon over Loan Note repayments have resulted in $20.6 million being received by the Company to date, and approximately $19 million expected on a quarterly basis as a minimum from Q4 2017 onwards, until the Loan Notes are repaid in full.

 

San Leon continues to work with Eroton to target the commencement of dividend payments, and I look forward to updating shareholders on progress in that regard in due course."

Chairman's Statement

 

It has been one year since the completion of the OML 18 transaction and the Company's entry into Nigeria. Work has been performed on wells, additional fields have come on stream after being renovated, and significant field data has been gathered. However, certain challenges have been faced by Eroton, the operator, in terms of operations and permissions, and those are being tackled. Those issue include:

- higher than expected pipeline loss allocation (with fiscal metering being installed during Q4 2017 to help resolve)

- higher than expected downtime (with valves to allow isolation of the upstream part of the NCTL pipelines being installed to reduce downtime)

- slower than anticipated well work, due to a combination of downhole challenges, delays in permissions being granted, and capex availability. Downhole challenges are being addressed with the appropriate technical resources.

 

As a result current production is below the sales and production expectations set out in the CPR. In Q4 2017, the Company expects to see the commencement of heavy workover operations to boost production levels and new well drilling, the results of which we look forward to announcing in due course.

 

I am also pleased to highlight that San Leon has received $20.6 million in Loan Notes repayments to date. Further information on the loan notes is detailed below.

 

In addition to the 2017 events reported in the final results for the year ended 31 December 2016, the Company has continued to reduce its footprint in areas outside Nigeria. With agreements signed to dispose of interests in Poland, the deals, if completed will result in the Company only holding interests in two Baltic Basin shale gas assets in the country. To ensure management time and company funds are focused on Nigeria the Company will continue to dispose of non-core assets.

 

I am pleased to welcome Constantine Ogunbiyi as an advisor to the Board, bringing with him a wealth of Nigerian corporate and financial experience and contacts. Amongst other roles, he established and was CEO of First Hydrocarbon Nigeria ("FHN"), which with Seplat, acquired certain Nigerian assets from Shell in 2010. He raised more than $320 million in debt and equity for FHN, mostly from major Nigerian institutions.

 

 

Midwestern Leon Petroleum Limited Loan Notes Summary

 

In September 2016, SLE acquired approximately $174.5 million principal amount of 17% fixed rate secured loan notes 2020 (the "Loan Notes") constituted under an instrument dated 22 March 2016 (as amended and restated) (the "Instrument") executed by Midwestern Leon Petroleum Limited ("MLPL").

 

If over a fiscal quarter no Dedicated Proceeds are received by MLPL no interest is payable on the relevant interest payment date and MLPL is not in default under the Instrument. However, regardless of whether MLPL has actually received Dedicated Proceeds, the Instrument contains a 'long stop date' for each scheduled quarterly payment.

 

If over a fiscal quarter payments by MLPL to San Leon in respect of the Loan Notes are less than the scheduled quarterly payment, the shortfall is a "Noteholder Underpayment" and must be paid within a 'cure period' to avoid default under the Instrument. The cure period in the Instrument allows MLPL nine months from the occurrence of a Noteholder Underpayment to pay such amounts to SLE. If any Noteholder Underpayment is not paid in full on (or before) the expiration of this nine month cure period, an event of default arises.

 

In the case of an event of default, SLE may demand immediate payment of the full outstanding principal amount of the Loan Notes, all unpaid accrued interest and any other sum then payable from MLPL.  As disclosed in SLE's admission document, SLE has the benefit of a security package including guarantees and a share pledge. Midwestern Oil & Gas Company Limited, the 60% shareholder in MLPL, and Mart Resources Limited (together, the "Guarantors") have agreed to guarantee the obligations of MLPL under the Instrument.

 

 

 

Financial Review

 

Revenue for the six months to 30 June 2017 was €0.1m compared with €0.2m for the 6 months to 30 June 2016. Cost of sales for the 6 months to 30 June 2017 was €0.03m compared with €Nil for the 6 months to 30 June 2016.

 

Loss on equity investments for the 6 months to 30 June 2017 was €3.5m (30 June 2016: €0.002m). This loss relates to the equity investment by San Leon in MLPL and in turn MLPL's investment in Martwestern Energy and in turn the investment in Eroton and its OML 18 asset in Nigeria. During the 6 month period to 30 June 2017 profit generated from the investment in Eroton and Martwestern Energy is more than offset by the financing cost of arrangements entered into by MLPL.

 

Administrative costs decreased to €3.9m for the 6 months to 30 June 2017 (30 June 2016: €5.7m). The main reason for the decrease is the higher spend on legal and consultancy fees during the first half of 2016, and a swing in foreign exchange rates.

 

Avobone costs of €1.0m relate to fees and interest incurred during the 6 months to 30 June 2017 (30 June 2016:  €Nil).

 

Finance expense of €13.9m for the 6 months to 30 June 2017 (30 June 2016: €0.8m) relates to a foreign exchange loss on the Loan Notes of €11.3m and other loan and finance costs of €2.6m.

 

Finance income of €16.5m (30 June 2016: €Nil) is interest income on the US$174.5m Loan Notes.

 

Tax income for the 6 months to 30 June 2017 is €0.5m (30 June 2016: €Nil).

 

San Leon generated a loss after tax of €5.24m for the 6 months to 30 June 2017 compared with a loss after tax of €6.23m in the 6 months to 30 June 2016.

 

Adjusting for the foreign exchange loss of €11.3m on the US$174.5m Loan Notes, underlying profit for the 6 months to 30 June 2017 was €6.1m.

 

San Leon has requested payment of approximately US$77.7 million of loan principal and interest payments to date. To date, San Leon has received US$20.6 million which has been applied in satisfaction of principal and accrued interest on the Loan Notes. The outstanding balance is therefore US$57.1 million, increasing by approximately $19 million on the 1 October 2017. The Loan Notes are explained in more detail in the section above entitled "Midwestern Leon Petroleum Limited Loan Notes Summary".

 

The Company has well established loan relationships usually lasting less than a year with various terms and conditions and parties. During 2017 additional funds of approximately €6.3 million have been provided to the Company with a current outstanding principal of approximately €4.3 million (£4.0 million).

 

During 2017, €8,175,000 was paid to Avobone. Under the arbitration award, the Group has to pay Avobone a further €8,000,000 during October 2017 and €6,694,840 during November 2017.

 

Under an agreement with Yorkville, as announced on 22 June 2017, San Leon issued 6,254,905 ordinary shares at a price of 32 pence per share with a value of US$2.6m in part settlement of US$5.4mm owed under a promissory note backed by a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement announced on 1 November 2010. The remaining balance of $2.8m is to be repaid to Yorkville on or before 31 October 2017.

 

On 17 January 2017, San Leon issued and allotted 3,000,000 ordinary shares to two service providers, Robin Management Services and 4,000,000 ordinary shares to DSA Investments Inc. in respect of options granted and then exercised at a price of 30 pence per share.

 

The Company's Irish counsel is progressing a capital reorganisation which is required to allow dividends to be paid to San Leon shareholders. This is happening later than originally planned.

 

 

Outlook

 

The Company is very active in terms of assets - concentrating on its Nigerian interests, recently appointing its senior operations advisor to Eroton - as well as on a corporate front with the discussions regarding a potential takeover offer for the Company. While offer talks have been protracted, discussions continue with China Great and, while there can be no certainty that any of these discussions will lead to a firm intention to make an offer, we look forward to updating shareholders with progress on both operations and offer discussions in due course.

In November 2016, the Company sold its 35% interest in the Rawicz gas field held through TSH Energy Joint Venture B.V. for a cash consideration of €8.5 million (US$9.0 million), and the release of certain San Leon liabilities.

 

These liabilities included loans which were advanced by Palomar to the Company as a temporary carry of the drilling and testing costs of the Rawicz-12 and Rawicz-15 wells, and amount each to approximately €2.8 million (US$3.0 million).

 

The Company also sold its 35% interest in the Poznan assets held through Poznan Energy B.V (largely the Siekierki field) for a consideration of €1 plus a 10% Net Profit Interest ("NPI") in the Poznan assets. The NPI removes any further cost exposure to San Leon, while providing an interest in any future profits made by Palomar on the Poznan assets. A nil value has been placed on the NPI at this stage, since no agreed work programmes are in place for the asset. The first €2.1 million (US$2.2 million) was received on closing, the next €2.1 million (US$2.3 million) was received on 30 November 2016 and the remaining €4.3 million (US$4.5 million) is due to be paid to San Leon on or before 1 October 2017. An interest charge of LIBOR plus 5% is being applied to any sum not paid by 1 February 2017.

The Directors have considered the licence, exploration and appraisal costs capitalised in respect of exploration and evaluation assets, which are carried at historical cost. Those assets have been assessed for impairment and in particular with regard to remaining licence terms, likelihood of licence renewal, likelihood of further expenditures and on-going appraisals for each year. The directors are satisfied that there are no current indications of impairment, but recognise that the future realisation of these exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on future successful exploration and appraisal activities and the subsequent economic production of oil and gas reserves.

The fair value of loan notes attributable to the equity investment is calculated using a discount factor of management's estimate of a market rate of interest of 8% above the coupon rate of 17% over the term of the loan notes.

 

The Company undertook a number of steps to effect the purchase of its interest in the OML 18 Production Arrangement in 2016. Midwestern Leon Petroleum Limited (MLPL), a company incorporated in Mauritius of which San Leon Nigeria B.V. has a 40% shareholding, was established as a special purpose vehicle to complete the transaction by purchasing all of the shares in Martwestern Energy Limited (Martwestern), a company incorporated in Nigeria. Martwestern holds a 50% shareholding in Eroton Exploration and Production Company Limited (Eroton), a company incorporated in Nigeria and the Operator of OML 18.

 

To partly fund the purchase of 100% of the shares of Martwestern, MLPL borrowed €156.6 million (US$174.5 million) in incremental amounts by issuing Loan Notes under a Loan Note Instrument which attracts a coupon of 17 per cent. Midwestern Oil and Gas Company Limited is the 60% shareholder of MLPL and transferred its shares in Martwestern to MLPL as part of the full transaction. Following its Placing in September 2016, San Leon Energy PLC purchased all of the outstanding Loan Notes issued of €103.7 million (US$115.5 million) and subscribed for further €52.9 million (US$58.9 million) of newly issued loan notes and is therefore the beneficiary and holder of all Loan Notes issued by MLPL. SLE will be repaid the full €156.6 million (US$174.5 million) plus the 17% coupon once certain conditions have been met and using an agreed distribution mechanism. SLE is also a beneficiary of any dividends that will be paid by MLPL as a 40% shareholder in MLPL, but the Loan Note repayments must take priority over any dividend payments made to the MLPL shareholders.

 

Through its 50% shareholding in Eroton and other agreements, Martwestern holds an initial indirect 24.3% economic interest in the OML 18 Production Arrangement. Through the ownership of MLPL and other commercial agreements, SLE is an indirect shareholder of Eroton, and the Company holds a 9.72% initial economic interest in OML 18.

 

The key information relevant to the fair value of the Loan Notes is as follows:

- MLPL profitability i.e. ability to generate cash flows for repayment

- Loan Notes are repayable in full by 31 March 2020.

The estimated fair value would increase / (decrease) if:

-   US Dollar exchange rate increased / (decreased)

 

The recoverability of the group and company's equity and loan note investments in the MLPL (OML 18 Production) arrangement is dependent on the ability of the OML 18 operator, Eroton, to make distributions. Eroton needs to meet certain conditions before its lenders will allow Eroton to make distributions to its shareholders. These distributions need to be made to enable MLPL repay interest and principal to San Leon. At the balance sheet date and at the date of approval of their financial statements these conditions have not been met by Eroton. The directors of San Leon have considered the carrying amounts of the loan notes and equity interest at 31 December 2016 and are satisfied that these are appropriate.

 

(ii) Barryroe - 4.5% Net Profit Interest (NPI)

 

The Directors have estimated the fair value of the NPI by reference to a third party evaluation report of contingent resources and cash flows prepared by Netherland Sewell & Associates Inc. (NSAI) in July 2013 for Providence Resources Plc ("Providence").

 

NSAI reported that the Basal Wealden oil reservoir has an estimated 2C in-place gross on-block volume of 761 MMBO with recoverable resources of 266 MMBO and 187 BCF of associated gas, based on a 35% oil recovery factor. In July 2013, NSAI also provided an estimate of the cash flows attributable to Providence's net interest from the Basal Wealden oil reservoir only. It estimated Providence's net present value at US$2.63 billion in the 2C case (estimated recoverable resources of 266 MMBO and 187 BCF of associated gas) at a 10% discount rate. Further details are available on the Providence website.

 

Further information has also been made available regarding the revised development plan or development costs which are key inputs into the valuation model.

 

As San Leon is not the operator of this licence, the Group does not have the ability to commission an independent technical evaluation of the licence area. Therefore, the Directors believe that the NSAI report, when coupled with other information released by Providence and adopted for certain changes in the market, gives the basis for the best estimate of fair value at year end.

 

With the increase in the oil price since the lows of early 2016 and an increase in farm-out activity, San Leon is confident of the asset value ascribed to Barryroe.

 

iii) Amedeo Resources plc

 

During 2017, the Company sold 100,000< ordinary shares in Amedeo Resources plc for cash consideration of €30,998. At 30 June 2017, the Company hold 213,512< ordinary shares with a market value of €28,548 (2016:€139,219).

 

During 2016, the Company sold 398,738< ordinary shares in Amedeo Resources plc for cash consideration of €139,219.

 

Adjusted for share consolidation of 1 for 100 in Amedeo Resources plc.

 

(iv) Ardilaun Energy Limited

 

As part of the consideration for the sale of Island Oil & Gas Limited to Ardilaun Energy Limited ("Ardilaun") in 2014.

 

Ardilaun agreed to issue shares equivalent to 15% of the issued share capital of Ardilaun. The original fair value of the 15% interest in Ardilaun was based on a market transaction in Ardilaun shares. The Directors have considered the carrying value of this interest at 31 December 2016 and are satisfied that the carrying value continues to be appropriate in the absence of further market data.

Restricted cash at bank at 30 June 2017 is a deposit account held in support of bank guarantees required under the Moroccan exploration licence, Zag, held by the Group.

 

After the reporting period, in April 2017, the Company announced that the Office National des Hydrocarbures et des Mines ("ONHYM") has written to the Company regarding the non-performance of the work programme on its Zag Licence, onshore Morocco. ONHYM has assumed control of the existing bank guarantee (listed above as restricted cash), and has requested a penalty of the same amount again to be paid. The Zag licence is in a geographical area which the Company believes justifies a declaration of force majeure due to the regional security situation. The Directors are confident, given their belief in the force majeure status of the licence, with the recoverability of the bank guarantee and that the penalty cannot be enforced. The company is in negotiations with ONHYM regarding the future of the licence including the week programme, and the force majeure status.

Decommissioning

 

The provision for decommissioning costs is recorded at the value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the Group's future obligations on decommissioning of previously drilled wells. As part of the sale of TSH and Poznan to Palomar, €1.8 million of the decommissioning provision was transferred with the sale.

 

Arbitration

 

On 7 November 2016, Avobone N.V. and Avobone Poland B.V. ("Avobone") (together, "Avobone") and the Company settled a number of ongoing disputes between them and between Avobone and certain of San Leon's subsidiaries, including Aurelian Oil & Gas Limited, Aurelian Oil & Gas Poland Sp. z.o.o, Energia Zachod Holdings Sp. z.o.o and AOG Finance Limited, in Poland, Netherlands, Ireland, England & Wales in respect of various matters including a final award in an ICC arbitration dated 21 May 2015. The total settlement amounts to €23.3 million plus interest to be paid to Avobone. Interest will accrue at a rate of 5% per annum on instalments until paid.

 

As announced by San Leon on 5 June 2017 an Extension Agreement was entered into with Avobone along with a revised payment schedule in respect of sums owed to Avobone.

 

A payment of €8,175,000 (inclusive of an extension fee) has been made during 2017 so far.

Further payments are due as follows:

·     During October 2017, San Leon shall pay to Avobone, a further sum of €8,000,000

·     During November 2017, San Leon shall pay to Avobone, a further sum of €6,694,840

 

Payments totalling €22,869,840 are expected during 2017 (inclusive of extension fees and interest since the 31 December 2016) approximately adding an additional €0.9 million to the provision.

 

Other

 

Certain Realm Energy International Corporation shareholders exercised rights of dissent under Canadian law not to accept the terms of acquisition in 2011. Under Canadian law, these dissenting shareholders are eligible to receive a cash payment equal to the fair value of their shareholding at acquisition. The provision represents the Directors' estimate of the cash consideration to be paid to those shareholders taking account of the market price of the Realm shares at acquisition.

 

In Q1 2017 the amount provided at 31 December 2016 was fully paid in cash to the shareholders.
