## Summary of Jadestone Energy PLCs 2025 Full-Year Results
**Key Highlights**
* **Strong Operational Performance** Jadestone achieved record annual production of 19,829 boe/d, a 6% increase year-on-year, driven by the full year contribution from the Akatara field in Indonesia.
* **Improved Cash Flow** Operating cash flow before working capital increased by 75% to $123.6 million, reflecting higher revenues and lower production costs.
* **Financial Results Impacted by Impairment:** A post-tax impairment charge of $88.2 million, primarily related to the Stag and Montara fields, resulted in a net loss after tax of $110.7 million.
* **Debt Refinancing** Jadestone successfully issued a $200 million Nordic bond, reducing near-term debt repayments and providing flexibility for growth opportunities.
* **Vietnam Progress** The Nam Du/U Minh project in Vietnam received government approval for its field development plan, paving the way for initial 2P reserves booking and farm-out discussions.
* **Operational Headwinds** The second quarter of 2026 faced challenges due to Cyclone Narelle, impacting production at the Stag field.
**Financial Performance**
* **Revenue** Increased by 3% to $408.1 million, driven by higher Akatara revenues and a favorable hedging impact, partially offset by lower realized oil prices and sales volumes from other assets.
* **Production Costs** Decreased by 19% to $232.7 million, primarily due to lower field operating costs, workovers, and maintenance activities.
* **Adjusted EBITDAX** Increased by 20% to $153.0 million, reflecting higher revenues and lower production costs.
