San Leon Energy Plc
("San Leon" or "the Company")
Final Results
San Leon Energy Plc ("San Leon" or "the Company"), the AIM
listed oil and gas exploration and production company focused on
Africa and Europe, today announces its audited final results for
the year ended 31 December 2015.
Highlights:
Post Year End Transaction
* San Leon announced on 22 January 2016 its proposed
entry into Nigerian onshore oil and gas production
* The transformational transaction will result in the
Company securing an initial 9.72% indirect economic
interest in the world class OML 18 block, subject to
shareholder approval
* The acquisition constitutes a reverse takeover under
the AIM Rules. San Leon is required to publish an AIM
readmission document and to reapply for the Company's
ordinary shares to be readmitted to trading on AIM
* As a result of the proposed Nigerian transaction, San
Leon will implement a shareholder distribution policy,
returning 50 per cent. of free cash flow from the
Nigerian asset to shareholders over the five years
starting with first Nigerian cash flow. To allow this,
asset write-offs of EUR166.9m have been recorded at
31 December 2015, and an application to reduce share
capital/share premium will be made to the Irish
courts
Operational
* NovaSeis, the Company's 100%-owned subsidiary, signed
a Memorandum of Understanding with Northbridge Energy
Ltd setting out a Joint Venture to provide seismic
acquisition and interpretation services in Nigeria
* Rawicz-12 well declared as a gas discovery and is
expected to be the largest gas development in Poland
for 20 years
* Spud Rawicz-15 development well and post year end,
announced an average flow rate in excess of 3.6
mmscfd (million cubic feet per day)
* Competent Person Report by Ryder Scott Company for
Palomar Natural Resources, the operator, stated that
the Rawicz gas field contains over 50 Bcf of 2P
reserves
* Oil shale bench testing results at the Timahdit oil
shale licence proved the Enefit process to be
applicable and being used to assess the efficiency of
the Chevron Lummus upgrading technology on the shale
oil
* Laayoune-4 well on the Tarfaya conventional licence,
onshore Morocco, was drilled and suspended with gas
shows, pending further seismic work
* Initiated asset optimisation and cost reduction
strategy, resulting in relinquishing certain licences
Corporate
* Announced GBP29 million (gross) fundraising, through
a placing of new ordinary shares, together with a
share capital reorganisation in the middle of 2015
* With effect from 1 January 2015, Oisin Fanning,
Executive Chairman, has drawn only 20% of his salary
in cash with the balance accruing in San Leon shares
* Jeremy Boak, Non-Executive Director of the Company,
accepted a position at The University of Oklahoma,
and as a result resigned from the board of San Leon
* Piotr Rozwadowski, Non-Executive Director of the
Company, resigned from the board of San Leon on 5th
May, after the reporting period
Financial
* Total comprehensive loss for the year of EUR213.6m
(2014: loss of EUR34.4m)
* Total assets decreased to EUR132m at 31 December 2015
(2014: EUR281m)
* At year end the Group had cash and cash equivalents
of EUR0.9m (2014: EUR1.8m)
Outlook
* The onshore Nigerian production transaction is
expected to be transformational, repositioning San
Leon as a producing company with significant yet low
risk upside, and attractive hedges already in place
* Rawicz field development continues to progress, with
a full development plan to be submitted to the Polish
government for approval. It is envisaged that at
least three wells, including Rawicz-12 and Rawicz-15,
will be available for first production in early 2017

Chairman's statement
We took advantage of the crisis that brought down the price of
oil and gas assets to move aggressively. We put together a deal
with Eroton and Midwestern, two major Nigerian players, to acquire
a 9.72% indirect economic interest in the world-class onshore OML
18 block in Nigeria.
We structured and marketed a proposed equity raise to complete
the deal, which will be voted on by shareholders in the near
future.
Last year we promised shareholders that we would focus on
appraisal and production assets, and in particular production. The
proposed OML 18 deal is expected to achieve this in a highly
material fashion, subject to shareholder approval. Full details of
the announced deal structure will be provided in the AIM
re-admission document, and highlights are given below:
* Expected transformational cash flow impact on the
Company will enable 50% of free cash flow to be
returned to shareholders via dividend and/or share
buyback
* San Leon's investment is to be made through a $173
million loan instrument which will be repaid, with
17% per annum interest, over four years
* Three sources of cash flow to San Leon from the deal:
1. Loan repayments (principal plus interest)
2. Dividends from indirect economic interest
in OML 18
3. Right to provide workover and drilling rig
services to the operator
* Acquisition to be funded through a minimum $200
million equity placing
* OML 18 is producing 50,000 bopd, with a low risk
development plan to reach 100,000 bopd
* Hedge at $95 per barrel of oil with Shell for around
35% of expected 2P production until the end of 2017
* Significantly reduced theft or supply disruption
through engagement with local community and
indigenous operating partners
* Former Head of Shell Nigeria joining the San Leon
Board as Non-Executive Chairman, with other Board
changes appropriate to the post-deal Company.
Poland
Rawicz, expected to be the largest gas development in Poland for
20 years, continues to succeed. The second appraisal/development
well on the structure was drilled in 2015 and tested in 2016, and
first gas from an initial well stock of at least 3 wells is
expected in early 2017.
Other operational activity in Poland has been limited, in
response to low commodity prices and a difficult transaction
environment for exploration and appraisal assets. Various non-core
assets, particularly those which were early-stage exploration and
which therefore no longer fit with the Company's focus on cash
flow, have been fully or partly relinquished.
Morocco
The Laayoune-4 well on the onshore Tarfaya licence, targeting
the conventional Tertiary sandstone, was drilled in summer 2015 and
encountered gas shows. ONHYM and the Company now intend to apply
for a long licence, which may include 3D seismic over the broader
structure (including the existing well), and the well may also be
re-entered.
Elsewhere in Morocco activity has been limited to technical
analysis. Our interest in the offshore Sidi Moussa licence is
available for farm out, and the operator (Genel Energy) is
focussing its offshore efforts there. Spending on the Tarfaya oil
shale licence has been restricted, pending a recovery in the oil
price.
CORPORATE
Once again the Company recorded no Lost Time Incidents (LTIs)
for the year, reflecting the priority placed by all staff and
contractors on HSEQ.
The major step for your Company comes with the proposed Nigerian
deal announced after the reporting period in January 2016, and the
proposed placing at a significant premium to the price at
suspension. The expected fiscal strength of the Company as a result
of a completed Nigerian deal has encouraged the Company to put in
place a policy for returning 50% of Plc free cash flow to investors
for the next 5 years.
San Leon raised GBP29 million via a placing, in the middle of
2015. These funds enabled the drilling of the Tarfaya conventional
well, the retention of the Barryroe NPI, provided working capital,
and - as foreseen in the Placing documentation - positioned the
Company for the proposed Nigerian production deal. As part of that
move towards a production focus, and also reflecting the downturn
in the industry, the Company announced various licence exits
(particularly on early-stage exploration) to reduce overheads and
avoid distraction of effort, and that portfolio optimisation
continues. As a result, EUR166.9m of assets were impaired during
2015, resulting in a loss for the year after providing for
depreciation and taxation of EUR213.4m. As at 31 December 2015,
cash and cash equivalents was EUR0.9m, and the Company has access
to several sources of funding which satisfies the Directors that
the Company continues as a going concern.
Other items reflected in the accounts are firstly that
short-term financing was required during 2015, as detailed in
finance expenses. Secondly, various Company subsidiaries (the
"Subsidiaries") have been unsuccessful in their appeal against the
findings of the International Court of Arbitration of the
International Chamber of Commerce, in relation to the arbitration
between the Subsidiaries and Avobone N.V. and Avobone Poland
B.V..
The Subsidiaries appealed the ICC findings to the UK Commercial
Court in October 2015. The findings of the Court, received by the
Company on 4 February 2016 but not conclusive until 11 February,
were that the Subsidiaries' leave to appeal was dismissed.
Accordingly, the Company has provided for the award.
For several months around the end of 2015 the Company was in a
formal offer period, having received an approach. That approach was
subsequently withdrawn.
The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, NovaSeis, signed a
Memorandum of Understanding with Northbridge, an indigenous
Nigerian technical company, with the aim of developing a seismic
acquisition, processing and interpretation business in Nigeria.
NovaSeis performed a considerable amount of such European and North
African work since 2011 both internally to San Leon and to third
parties.
OUTLOOK
In the current industry climate, securing cash flow is key.
Subject to shareholder approval, the Nigeria deal is expected to
provide exactly that. The Directors believe your Company will
become one of the largest E&P companies on AIM, and one of very
few paying dividends and/or undertaking share buybacks.
"2015 was the year to plan to acquire assets, with the whole
energy industry depressed. The Nigerian OML 18 deal proposed in
2016 certainly was not easy to achieve, but it was worth it: a new
world opens up to San Leon and its shareholders."
Oisín Fanning
Executive Chairman
Chief Operating Officer's statement
"Our proposed OML 18 project has all the essential components of
success: a proven ability to increase production, quality of
operatorship, good community relationships, a supportive and
reliable partner and several material cash flow streams."
Joel Price
Chief Operating Officer
MOROCCO
Oil shale development
The 36 km(2) Timahdit oil shale block onshore Morocco is an
asset being kept for the future, when oil prices recover and an
update to the existing pre-feasibility study for developing the
asset is warranted.
FRANCE
Shale gas licences
In France, San Leon continues to apply for over 2.4 million
acres (c9,000 km(2) ) of licences - licence applications which have
been made at very low cost.
ALBANIA
Offshore
The Company is in discussions with the Ministry regarding the
next stages on its offshore Albania Durresi block. A large suite of
data, including modern 3D seismic, defines the large oil and gas
target (near to the A4-1X discovery well) in relatively deep water.
San Leon continues to seek a partner to drill the structure.
MOROCCO
Offshore
The Genel-operated Sidi Moussa block (San Leon net 10.0%
interest) is the subject of farm out activity by the operator, with
the prospect of further well activity.
Onshore (Zag)
Zag is a large licence on which technical works continues to
evaluate its potential.
POLAND
Baltic Basin
2014 saw testing on the Company's 100%-owned Lewino-1G2 shale
gas well, on the Gdansk W concession, providing the best single
frac on a vertical gas well in Europe. The concession requires a
follow-up horizontal well with multiple fractures (much of the
planning for which is complete), and a partner is being sought to
perform that work to enable a proper evaluation of the level of
commerciality of the 220,000 acres.
The Sczcawno concession, further to the south in a region with
dry gas, has a vertical well already drilled into its shale target,
and awaits fraccing and testing. Siekierki, in the Permian Basin,
is a tight gas field on which the Company has an agreement for
Palomar Natural Resources ("Palomar"; the operator, with 65%
equity) to perform workovers on three existing wells.
IRELAND
Offshore
San Leon's 4.5% Net Profit Interest (NPI) on the Barryroe oil
field provides access to future revenue streams with no additional
capital required. A CPR was produced by the operator in 2013, and
the operator continues efforts to farm out the asset to enable the
next wells to be drilled.
MOROCCO
Onshore
Laayoune-4 was drilled as a commitment well targeting Tertiary
channel sands on the onshore Tarfaya licence. It is in an excellent
location for gas marketing, and believed to be part of a larger
structure. The well encountered gas shows and has been suspended
pending possible re-entry. In the meantime, the Company intends to
apply in conjunction with ONHYM for a long licence extension on
Tarfaya, which may include a significant 3D seismic programme over
the broader structure, including the Laayoune-4 well.
POLAND
Rawicz-15, the second appraisal/development well on the onshore
Poland Rawicz gas field, was drilled during 2015 by the operator,
Palomar. It was subsequently tested in early 2016 and produced 3.6
mmscf/d, confirming the producibility of the reservoir on the
western side of the structure and providing further evidence of
volumes. Palomar is finalising a full development plan to be
submitted to the Polish Government for approval. The operator's
development plan envisages at least three wells available for first
production (including Rawicz-12 and Rawicz-15), now expected in
early 2017, which would bring onstream the largest gas development
in Poland for 20 years.

Notes
1. General
San Leon Energy plc ("the Company") is a company incorporated in
Ireland. The Group financial statements consolidate those of the
Company with those of its subsidiaries (together referred to as
"the Group").
The financial information presented in this report has been
prepared using accounting policies consistent with International
Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European
Union and as set out in the Group's annual financial statements in
respect of the year ended 31 December 2014. The financial
information herein does not include all the information and
disclosures required in the annual financial statements, however
the full financial statements are included within the Annual Report
which are being distributed to shareholders and which are available
on the Company's website www.sanleonenergy.com. It will also be
filed with the Company's Annual Return in the Companies
Registration Office. The financial information herein for the prior
year ended 31 December 2015 represents an abbreviated version of
the Group's statutory financial statements and the financial
statements for the year ended 31 December 2015 have been filed with
the Companies Registration Office.
2. Extract from KPMG's Independent Auditor's Report: Opinions
and conclusions, and emphasis of matter - going concern
Our opinion on the financial statements is unmodified.
In our opinion:
-- the Group financial statements give a true and fair view of
the assets, liabilities and financial position of the Group as at
31 December 2015 and of its loss for the year then ended;
-- the Company Statement of Financial Position gives a true and
fair view of the assets, liabilities and financial position of the
Company as at 31 December 2015;
-- the Group financial statements have been properly prepared in
accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union;
-- the Company financial statements have been properly prepared
in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union as applied
in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2014;
and
-- the Group financial statements and Company financial
statements have been properly prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Companies Act 2014.
In forming our opinion on the financial statements, which is not
modified, we have considered the adequacy of the disclosure made in
Note 1 to the financial statements concerning the Group and
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of
the Group and Company to continue as a going concern is dependent
on a number of key assumptions as set out in Note 1 including the
approval by the shareholders of the Company of a share placing and
of the acquisition by the Company of a 9.72% indirect economic
interest in the OML 18 block, onshore Nigeria, at an Extraordinary
General Meeting in July 2016. These assumptions, along with the
other matters explained in Note 1 to the financial statements,
indicate the existence of material uncertainties which may cast
significant doubt about the Group and Company's ability to continue
as a going concern. The financial statements do not include the
adjustments that would result if the Group and Company were unable
to continue as going concerns.
3. Earnings per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss
attributed to ordinary shareholders of EUR213,366,000 (2014:
EUR38,264,356 loss) by the weighted average number of shares of
42,134,338 (2014: 25,352,990) in issue during the year. The diluted
earnings per share calculation is identical to that used for basic
loss per share as warrants are "out of the money" and not
considered dilutive.
4. Annual Report and Accounts
Copies of the Annual Report and Accounts, together with a notice
of the annual general meeting, are being posted to shareholders on
30 June 2016 and are available within the Investor Relations
section of the Company's website www.sanleonenergy.com today.
