Gil Holzman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eco Atlantic, commented:

"During the period Eco has continued to advance our strategy of building value through focused portfolio management in key hydrocarbon frontiers. In South Africa, we have now completed the acquisition of a 75% interest and operatorship in Block 1 in the Orange Basin. This, alongside our existing interest in the highly prospective Block 3B/4B, further consolidates our presence in a world-class hydrocarbon province.

"In Namibia, our focus has been on portfolio optimisation, aimed at maximising the value of our assets and unlocking their potential for the benefit of our stakeholders. We secured one-year extensions across all four of our PELs and agreed a farm-out of PEL 98 to Lamda Energy, reinforcing the potential of our portfolio and deepening our support for local ownership and operational leadership in Namibia.

"We remain fully engaged in the farm-out process for the Orinduik Block in Guyana and continue to evaluate the heavy oil potential of the Jethro-1 and Joe-1 discoveries, both of which present exciting development opportunities.

"As our stakeholders will be aware, it was with great sadness that we recently announced the passing of Eco's co-founder and Chief Operating Officer, Colin Kinley. A bastion of the oil and gas sector and a close friend to all of us at Eco, Colin will be missed dearly. With Alice Carroll and myself assuming his responsibilities, we will endeavour to continue his legacy of operational excellence and diligence.

"As we move through the remainder of 2025 and into 2026, Eco is well-positioned with an international footprint across three of the best hydrocarbon jurisdictions in the world, and a clear path toward multiple near-term catalysts that we believe will create long-term value for our shareholders."
