DNO ASA

DNO has withdrawn its firm takeover offer for Genel Energy after Genel’s board showed no willingness to engage in talks. DNO had proposed 69 pence per share in cash (alternatively cash/stock) and asked to extend the deadline to 4 September. The Norwegian company stresses the offer would have provided a premium and secured Capricorn Energy, but reserves the right under certain conditions to lift restrictions. » Więcej na de.investing.com

DNO reports for Q1 2026 a 60% increase in operating profit to $284 million and a 30% rise in revenue to $627 million, driven by record North Sea production (88,600 boepd). Net production in the quarter was 131,700 boepd, down due to a temporary production halt in Kurdistan. DNO targets 100,000 boepd North Sea production by 2030, is advancing development projects and keeps the quarterly dividend unchanged; the balance sheet strengthened with operating cash flow of $383 million and cash and equivalents of $531 million. » Więcej na de.investing.com
