CHAIRMAN’S REVIEW
Dear Shareholder,
During the last 12 months, the Company has been forced to adapt to significant commercial and political challenges.
As previously reported, Synergia and its Indian JV partner, Antelopus Selan Energy Limited (“Selan”) spent 9 months negotiating a sale of Synergia’s 50% Cambay PSC working interest to Selan. Ultimately, Selan elected not to complete the transaction. In a fundamental change of strategy, the Company has decided to retain its interest in the Cambay PSC and pursue a strategy of holding Selan accountable for the timely execution of the agreed work program for which Synergia is carried by Selan and specifically the drilling of wells into the Eocene reservoir to exploit the oil resources and 206 BCF of certified gas reserves.
Cambay Operator, Selan drilled the first of three new wells in October 2025 into the shallower Oligocene OSII formation. This well failed to produce at commercial rates. At the time of writing, Selan have agreed to drill one vertical Eocene well in Q4 2026 to target the Eocene section in an area of the PSC where oil is expected and are obligated to drill a further two new Eocene wells as part of the agreed work programme. Successful new Eocene wells are crucial to the intrinsic value of the Cambay PSC.
Recently the Company’s finances have been helped by the positive production performance of several legacy wells which have been worked over coupled to high oil prices caused by the Middle East situation. The worked over wells now have the potential to produce between 150-175 BOPD coupled to improved gas production.
The Company has reluctantly abandoned its UK CCS project due to a combination of technical and commercial factors. The Camelot CCS project incorporates 13 legacy wells on the CS019 licence. Two of these legacy wells were abandoned circa 50 years ago in open hole for which no abandonment data can be found. The CCS regulator, the NSTA, indicated that the award of a storage permit for Camelot would be unlikely given this unresolved issue. Together with adverse commercial circumstances for merchant CCS projects in the UK, the Company has decided not to pursue the project further and to relinquish the CS019 Camelot licence.
Going forward, Synergia will focus on its Cambay PSC in India and investigate other opportunities in the oil and gas sector.
The Company has been fortunate to have the ongoing support of its largest shareholder, Republic Investment Management Pte Ltd (“RIM”) that has provided the financial support to execute the new strategy via a US$0.7 million loan facility that obviated the need for dilutive share placements and, as of 30 June 2026 US$0.225m has been drawn down. This loan facility, alongside positive operational cash flow from increased legacy well production in the second half of the financial year, means the Company is confident in delivering on its financial requirements and being able to generate increased value for shareholders as it progresses its revised strategy.
On behalf of the Board, I wish to acknowledge the significant contribution of the Company’s management and staff. We thank our contractors, local communities, shareholders and stakeholders for their ongoing support of the Company.
Mr J Salomon
Non-Executive Chairman
30 October 2026
Overview and Strategy
A disappointing end to 2025 resulted in Selan failing to complete the purchase of the Company’s 50% Cambay PSC working interest after 9 months of negotiations.
The Company adopted a new strategy for 2026 with a commitment to retain its 50% Cambay PSC working interest while applying constructive pressure on Operator Selan to enhance production and to execute the carried work program, as agreed with an emphasis on delivering the inherent value in the 206 BCF of certified P50 gas reserves as well as the known oil recovered on test in the Eocene reservoir.
The C-78 well drilled by Selan in November 2025 targeted at the shallower Oligocene OSII formation, failed to produce hydrocarbons. This result, however, has not detracted from the value of the deeper Eocene reserves. Consequently, the Company is actively encouraging Selan to drill the forthcoming Eocene (C-79) well in an optimised target location and press for an early execution of the C-80 horizontal Eocene well. At the time of writing, approximately US$12.5 million (US$6.3m net to Synergia) of Selan’s US$20 million agreed work program obligation remains extant.
A further change in strategy has been reluctantly adopted by the Company due to technical issues concerning the Company’s Camelot CCS project in the UK. Two legacy wells that were abandoned over 50 years ago in open hole do not meet the NSTA’s “no significant risk of leakage” criterion due to a lack of abandonment data. The NSTA expressed doubt that, at a consequence, the Camelot project would be un-able to qualify for a storage permit during a recent Legacy Well Integrity workshop. As a result, the Company has decided not to pursue the Camelot CCS project further and to relinquish the CS019 carbon storage licence forthwith.
The Company’s strategy will now focus on its Cambay PSC in India while evaluating new opportunities in the oil and gas sector that draw on the management team’s core oil and gas experience and expertise. The Company’s capital-allocation priorities are to protect and monetise the Cambay PSC, preserve liquidity, and assess new ventures against funded, staged investment criteria and value per share.
Cambay Field, Onshore Gujarat State, India
(Synergia Energy: Joint Operator and 50% Participating Interest)
The Company benefitted from both increased oil and gas production and high oil prices amid heightened Middle East tensions. In year ended 30 June 26, the highest monthly average price recorded was US$11.59 per MMTBU for Gas (FY25: US$8.24), and US$96.00 per BBL for Oil (FY25: US$78.23).
Selan, as Lead Operator of the Cambay JV, drilled a new well (C-78) during November 2025 that targeted the shallower Oligocene OSII formation. The well was tested after perforating the OSII zone without material production and the well is currently suspended. This well is part of the carried interest under the JV work program. Although the well did not target or penetrate the extensive gas reserves in the deeper Eocene, the failure of this well emphasised the need for more assiduous technical planning for future Eocene wells.
The workovers of 4 legacy wells were conducted during November 2025 after a 12-month hiatus of development activity. Three of the workovers (C-64 and C-74 and C-19z) established incremental new oil production, with a potential of circa 150 BOPD after pump optimisation. A workover on legacy well C-72 was unsuccessful. During May 2026, a workover on C-08 resulted in new incremental production at initially circa 30 BOPD, albeit production has subsequently reduced to less than 10 BOPD.
Synergia has been active in encouraging the cessation of flaring of associated gas and as a result, gas from the C-19z, C-64 and C-74 wells is now being piped to the C-73 export facility to augment gas production from C-77H. At the time of writing, gas production is in the region of 140,000 SCFD with an increase anticipated after all three wells are optimised.
The Company has been liaising with Selan’s technical personnel with detailed subsurface technical studies to culminate in the target location selection process for the upcoming C-79 vertical Eocene well scheduled for Q4 2026. The Company is reliant on Selan as Operator to secure the necessary approvals and contracts to execute the agreed work programme.
Cambay CCS Scheme
(Synergia Energy: Operator and 100% Participating Interest)
The Company continues to pursue its Cambay CCS Scheme and has established an agreement with India specialist company Carbon X to explore potential industry collaboration for CCS opportunities in India.
Medway Hub Camelot CCS Project
(Synergia Energy: Operator and 50% Participating Interest)
The Company’s comprehensive Legacy Well Integrity Risk Assessment report was discussed with the regulator during an NSTA-hosted legacy well workshop in June 2026. Although the report was well-received by the NSTA, two wells (53/01-4 and 53/01-6) that were abandoned by Mobil in open hole over 50 years ago cannot, according to the NSTA, meet the stringent “no significant risk of leakage” criterion. The detailed abandonment data for two wells (53/01-4 and 53/01-6) have not been able to be located and the NSTA is concerned that the Mobil composite logs produced in the 1970’s cannot be corroborated. The wells were abandoned with an open hole section in the Leman Sandstone and Zechstein formations and after circa 50 years, Synergia is confident these hole sections will have collapsed. Consequently, the wells cannot be re-abandoned.
In view of the uncertainty of being able to obtain a storage permit for the Leman Sandstone storage reservoir together with commercial uncertainties, the Company has decided not to pursue the project further and to apply to NSTA to relinquish its CS019 licence, together with its 50% joint venture partner in the licence, Harbour Energy. The Company anticipates there will be no further costs associated with the Medway Hub Camelot CCS Project.
Corporate and Treasury
Overview
The Company is listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange (“AIM”) and continues to focus on funding its development and operational activities through a combination of equity raisings, joint venture arrangements, and other financing strategies.
As at 30 June 2026, the Company had:
Executive and Board Changes
On 5 May 2026, Mr Mark Bolton resigned as Non-Executive Director. Ms Stacey Britza was appointed as Non-Executive Director on 12 May 2026. There were no other board changes during the year.
Treasury Policy
The Group’s funding requirements are regularly assessed by the Group’s Chief Financial Officer and reported to the Board, ensuring the Group can meet its financial obligations as and when they fall due. Internal cash flow models are used to evaluate and stress-test investment decisions. Until sufficient operating cash flows are generated from its operations, the Group remains reliant on equity or debt funding and joint venture contributions to fund its expenditure commitments. Where appropriate, the Group may also consider asset divestitures or farmouts as part of its broader funding strategy.
Formal control over the Group’s activities is maintained through a robust budget and cash flow monitoring process, with annual budgets reviewed in detail and monitored monthly by the Board. These form the basis of the Company’s financial management strategy.
Cash flows are tested under multiple scenarios to ensure that expenditure commitments can be met under all reasonably foreseeable conditions. Expenditures are also carefully monitored against the budget. The Company continues to actively develop funding options in order to meet its expenditure commitments and its planned future discretionary expenditure.
During the year, the following transactions occurred in relation to the Company’s debt and equity funding activities, and other capital movements:

FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026
Income Statement
During the year ended 30 June 2026, Synergia Energy Ltd recorded a consolidated loss after tax of A$10.83m, compared to a consolidated profit of A$4.99m in the prior year. After adjustments for Impairments, exclusivity fee receipt in 2026 and the one-off gain on disposal of assets in 2025, the Group made a loss after tax of A$3.2m (2025: A$2.78m loss).
Revenue from gas and oil sales increased to A$1.08m (2025: A$0.29m) from increased production as well as benefitting from increased oil and gas prices. As a result of the revenue increase, the Group recorded a gross profit of A$0.47m (2025: Gross loss of A$0.23m). Exploration, evaluation and appraisal expenditure increased to A$0.77m (2025: A$0.42m).
Administration expenses decreased to A$2.34m (2025: A$2.39m). Included within this, employee costs were reduced by 27% to A$0.97m (2025: A$1.33m) and office costs were also reduced by 27% to A$0.51m (2025: A$0.70m), however, compliance costs increased by 22% to A$0.92m (2025: A$0.76m) and there were limited cost recoveries during the year from the CCS joint venture (2026: A$0.06m, 2025: A$0.41m).
An impairment recorded against the carried interest receivable, based on the net recoverable amount of the Cambay cash-generating unit, was reduced by A$582,320, resulting in a credit to the income statement for the same amount. The impairment initially recognised in 2025 was A$610,680. Post this adjustment. due to the AASB 136 Impairment of Assets accounting standard conditions, an impairment provision for 100% of the carried interest receivable was provided for during the financial year ended 30 June 2026 (A$6.9m). The group does not feel that this is a true representation of the value of the asset at the end of the year.
Net finance costs of A$0.33m (2025: income A$0.72m) included the unwinding of discount on the restoration provisions and unrealised foreign exchange losses.
Cash Flow
During the year, net cash inflow from operating activities was A$0.86m, including A$0.70m cash received as a non-refundable exclusivity fee (2025: outflow A$3.91m), reflecting a 247% increase in receipts from customers during the year and a 61% reduction in payments to suppliers and employees.
The Directors have deferred payment of salaries and directors’ fees to support the Company’s cash flow and liquidity. At 30 June 2026, the total amount deferred and owing to Directors was A$626,274 (2025: A$167,912), as detailed in the Remuneration Report. These amounts remain payable.
Investing activities generated net cash outflows of A$1.24m (2025: inflow of A$2.46m), reflecting the gross proceeds of A$3.85m received in prior year from the Cambay Farm-Out (refer to Note 20 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Financing activities contributed A$0.33m (2025: A$1.65m), which represents the draw down on loans during the year.
Financial Position
As at 30 June 2026, the Group held cash and cash equivalents of A$1.12m (2025: A$1.21m), with borrowings of A$0.33m (2025: nil). Net assets decreased to A$7.45m (2025: A$18.95m) impacted by the full impairment of the carried interest receivable reflecting the uncertainty over future revenues for the Cambay work programme (refer to Note 15) and the full impairment of the Exploration, evaluation and appraisal asset due to the decision to withdraw from the UK CCS project, announced in June 2026.

In the financial year, the Company signed a Heads of Terms with Selan for the proposed sale of its remaining 50% participating interest in the Cambay PSC, however this did not go ahead. Selan paid an exclusivity fee of A$0.70m which is included in the Operating Profit within the year. Due to this decision, the Cambay asset that was held for sale in prior years annual report, has been reversed as at 30 June 2026 and has been reallocated to the assets and liabilities. Cash held by India Project Office is used to manage the working capital requirements of the group’s operations in India, surplus cash generated from operations in India is transferred back to the group.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026
Unless otherwise indicated, these financial statements are presented in Australian dollars (“A$”), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency (refer to Note 2(e)) and are rounded to the nearest Australian dollar.
Parent Entity Information
In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only.
Statement of Compliance
The consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards, interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (“AASB”) and the Corporations Act 2001. The Australian Accounting Standards include Australian equivalents to the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements comply with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
The principal accounting policies used in preparing this results announcement are those that the Company has adopted for its statutory accounts for the year ended 30 June 2026 and are unchanged from those previously disclosed in the Group’s Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2025.
Statutory accounts for 2025 have been delivered to Australian Securities and Investments Commission (“ASIC”) and those for 2026 will be delivered as soon as possible. The Company’s auditors have provided their audit report on the 30 June 2026 accounts, dated 30 October 2026; their report was unmodified, with an emphasis of matter paragraph, in relation to a material uncertainty relating to going concern as set out in the note below.
The consolidated financial statements were authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on 30 October 2026.
Going Concern Basis
The Directors believe it is appropriate to prepare the consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
In assessing going concern, the Directors have considered the Group’s business operations, financial performance and position, cash flows and liquidity, and the Group’s financial risk management objectives, including exposures to liquidity and other financial risks.
For the year ended 30 June 2026, the Group reported a net loss after tax of A$10,833,940 and net cash inflow from operating activities totalled A$863,860. At year end, the Group had net assets of A$7,446,662 including trade and other payables of A$2,765,638, of which A$606,520 was overdue at 30 June 2026. The trade and other payables balance also included deferred director fees totalling A$626,274, which were deferred as agreed by the Board to support short-term cash flow management and liquidity, reflecting the Board’s proactive cash flow stewardship.
Management is also actively exploring borrowing options, and the Group has a history of successfully raising capital, which supports the Directors’ confidence in the availability of additional funding if required. Management also continues to assess other funding alternatives to mitigate the risk of delays or non-completion of the proposed sale.
Based on the above, the Directors believe the Group will have sufficient resources to continue its operations for at least 12 months from the date of signing this report, and therefore, it remains appropriate to prepare the consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis. However, the above factors represent a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result if the going concern basis were inappropriate.
