Volumes (boepd)

Selected cash flow items

DNO’s share of oil from the Tawke license during the quarter was sold to local buyers as the Iraq-Türkiye Pipeline remained closed. All payments were made in advance of loadings and transferred directly into DNO’s international bank accounts.

In the second quarter, DNO paid a dividend of NOK 0.3125 per share (totaling USD 30.2 million), which represents NOK 1.25 per share on an annualized basis.

On 12 June, the transformative acquisition of Sval Energi Group AS was completed. Upon completion, DNO paid USD 440 million to the seller; this represents agreed consideration including interest between effective date and closing, less USD 22.5 million deposit paid in March. Sval Energi’s production is included in the table above as from June 1, and will be reported together with its financial results in the Company’s Q2 operating and interim financial results effective that date. A tax instalment of USD 114 million was made in June.

On the financing side during the quarter, DNO redeemed the remaining USD 350 million of outstanding DNO04 bonds on 10 April. In June, DNO completed a private placement of USD 400 million of new subordinated hybrid bonds and borrowed USD 300 million under a one-year bank bridge loan facility. At the end of the second quarter, there were USD 348 million outstanding under Sval Energi’s prepayment facilities and DNO Group’s cash deposits stood at USD 788 million. All outstanding debt under DNO’s North Sea subsidiaries’ reserve-based lending facilities was repaid and not renewed during the quarter.
