Activa Resources AG publishes 2014 group financial statements and drills
three new wells
- 2014 oil production increases 18 %
- 2014 group revenues grow 3 % to EUR 5.45 million
- 2014 EBITDA stable at approx. EUR 2 million; net loss of EUR 203k
- 3 new wells drilled in May 2015
Bad Homburg, 28th May 2015. Activa Resources AG, an independent oil and
natural gas exploration and production company specialising in the
development and exploitation of oil and natural gas fields in North America
is pleased to announce details of its financial year 2014 and initial
reports of three new wells drilled in recent weeks.
As a result of its successful 2014 drilling programme, Activa's oil
production rose 18 % in 2014 and now accounts for 70% of total productionon
a BOE basis. Oil also accounts for approximately 70 % of Activa's Proven
Reserves. Production of natural gas declined 25% as planned.
2014 revenues rose 3 % to EUR 5.45 million despite significantly lower oil
prices in Q4. Group EBITDA was stable at approx. EUR 2 million. In line
with previous statements by management, Activa Resources AG generated a
small group net loss in 2014 of EUR 0.2 million (vs. a net profit of EUR
0.13 million in 2013). The result is particularly attributable to the
dramatic fall in oil prices in the final quarter of the year and also to
higher depletion charges.
The balance sheet total increased 54 % to reach EUR 23.11 million at Dec.
31, 2014 (vs. EUR 15.10 million in 2013) as a result of the further
capitalisation of drilling expenditures and currency effects (stronger
USD/EUR exchange rate). The equity ratio improved from 22 % to 26 %.
After a 6 month pause in drilling following the oil price collapse in the
final quarter of 2014, Activa has recently resumed its drilling activities.
The following three wells have recently been drilled to their respective
total depths:
- Pill Branch, Arkansas, working interest 100 %, 2nd oil well, total
depth 6,000 feet, first producion expected June 2015
- Adams Ranch, Texas, working interest 82 %, shallow oil well, total
depth 1,600 feet, first production expected late June 2015
- Halls Bayou, Texas, working interest 12 %, 2nd oil and natural gas
well, total depth 12,500 feet, first production expected late June
2015.
Preparations to resume drilling at OSR-Halliday are underway. Further
details will be published in the Q2 Newsletter at the end of June.
