Serica Energy

Serica Energy generated operating cash flow after tax of USD 280m in the first half of 2026 and turned net debt of USD 200m at the start of the year into net cash of USD 26m. Revenue and production rose thanks to higher output and realized prices; average production was just over 45,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. For 2026 the company expects operating cash flow of USD 450–475m and maintained the interim dividend at GBP 0.06 per share. Management warns of maintenance-related weaker production in Q3 but expects marked strength in Q4, and cites planned acquisitions (Spirit Energy, Pharos) and a drilling programme as growth drivers. » Altro su de.investing.com

Serica Energy reported a net loss of $52m for 2025 but beat analyst expectations thanks to strong hedging gains and an EBITDAX of $210m. Net debt of $200m is expected to more than halve in Q1 after a $56m payment from TotalEnergies; the acquisition of the Greater Laggan Area increases net production by >5,000 boe/d. The company announces a final dividend of 10 pence (together with the interim payment of 6 pence giving a payout of around $84m or about 7% yield) and confirms the 2026 production guidance of well over 40,000 boe/d with potential for >65,000 boe/d by the end of 2026. Capex and opex forecasts remain unchanged; the move from AIM to the London Stock Exchange Main Market is planned for Q3 2026. » Altro su de.investing.com
