" We are delighted to have successfully repaid our first listed bond. This important milestone reinforces our credibility as a debt issuer and will enable the Company to further improve its credit rating, which was recently upgraded on November 1, 2021.

 

The pursuit of non-dilutive, large-scale debt financing will be one of our key strategic priorities in terms of funding for Zenith during 2022. 

 

During recent months the Company has been able to make significant payments, including settlement of the consideration payable for the acquisition of CNPC's interest in the Tunisian SLK, which are clear evidence of our strong cash position made possible by our energy production operations and their associated profitability.

 

We look forward with great enthusiasm to commencing our fully-funded field development in Tunisia shortly, as well as delivering on further potential near-term acquisitions in the Republic of the Congo, Tunisia and Nigeria ."
