Result of General Meeting
Total Voting Rights
Sunda Energy Plc (AIM: SNDA), the AIM-quoted oil and gas company focused on hydrocarbon assets in the Asia-Pacific region, announces that, at the Company’s General Meeting (“GM”), held today at 11.00 a.m., all the Resolutions were duly passed.
Accordingly, following the passing of the Resolutions at the General Meeting, the Conditional Placing, the Conditional Subscription and the Retail Offer can now proceed to completion. It is expected that the 258,345,719 Conditional Placing Shares, 11,465,990 Conditional Subscription Shares and 35,000,000 Retail Offer Shares will be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and dealings will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 12 October 2026.
Sunda Energy plc Chief Executive Officer, Dr Andy Butler, said:
“The passing of the Resolutions today is an important milestone for Sunda that concludes the recent oversubscribed Fundraising. I thank existing shareholders for their continued support and welcome new institutional and private investors in the Company. We now look forward to completion of the New Zealand acquisition and the resulting transformation of Sunda into a full cycle E&P company with both revenues and significant growth prospects. With a comprehensive transition plan in place, completion of the acquisition can quickly follow receipt of government consents for the change of control of the assets, which the Company currently anticipates being received during October 2026. The Fundraising also means that, following certain contractual formalities, Sunda can proceed with the intended cancellation of all undrawn convertible loan notes.”

Admission & Total Voting Rights
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 304,811,709 new Ordinary Shares (comprising the 258,345,719 Conditional Placing Shares, the 11,465,990 Conditional Subscription Shares and the 35,000,000 Retail Offer Shares) to be admitted to trading on AIM. Admission is expected to take place and dealings in the Conditional Placing Shares, Conditional Subscription Shares and the Retail Offer Shares are expected to commence at 8.00 a.m. on 12 October 2026.
The Conditional Placing Shares, Conditional Subscription Shares and Retail Offer Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Ordinary Shares of the Company, including the right to receive all dividends or other distributions made, paid or declared in respect of such shares after the date of Admission.
Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company in issue will be 841,535,105 with each Ordinary Share carrying the right to one vote. There are no Ordinary Shares held in treasury and therefore the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 841,535,105. The above figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure, Guidance and Transparency Rules.
