NG ENERGY ANNOUNCES FILING OF RECORD Q3 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Record sales accompanied a narrower quarterly loss, but operating cash flow remained negative.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
NG Energy International (GASXF) reported record third-quarter 2026 natural gas and liquids sales of US$18.3 million as volumes and realized prices increased. Sales rose 32% year over year. Net sales volumes reached 23,164 Mcf/d, or thousand cubic feet daily, while realized gas prices reached US$8.59/Mcf. The net loss narrowed to US$6.7 million from US$7.1 million a year earlier.
Operating netback, income per unit after operating costs and lease payments, turned positive at US$0.32/Mcf, versus US$(0.49) in Q2 but below US$0.92 a year earlier. Cash was US$41.7 million; adjusted net debt was US$25.7 million. After quarter-end, Aruchara-6 began production and Encantado-1X reached an instantaneous test rate of 15.0 MMcf/d gross, or million cubic feet daily. The company expects new two-year Maria Conchita contracts for up to 10.0 MMcf/d gross at above US$18.00/Mcf from December 1, 2026.

AI-generated analysis. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.
Record natural gas volumes and realized price; Operating Netback positive as unit costs fall; Aruchara-6 and Encantado-1X on production after quarter-end, with Encantado-1X producing up to 15.0 MMcf/d gross; Maria Conchita contracts expected to reprice above
Q3 2026 Highlights:
- Realized Price: Record quarterly realized natural gas price (excluding NGLs) of
US /Mcf, up$8.59 3% from Q2 2026 and15% from Q3 2025. Maria Conchita realizedUS /Mcf and Sinu-9 a record$9.10 US /Mcf.$7.95 - Maria Conchita Repricing: Pricing steps up at Maria Conchita on December 1, 2026: 5.0 MMcf/d gross of existing contracts expire on November 30, and the Company expects to enter into new two-year contracts for up to 10.0 MMcf/d gross at prices above
US /Mcf, approximately$18.00 98% above the Q3 2026 Maria Conchita realized price ofUS /Mcf, taking contracted volumes to up to 20.0 MMcf/d gross.$9.10 - Spot Price Upside: Realized prices are expected to rise as natural gas volumes grow. Production at both blocks was at or near contracted levels in Q3 2026, so little natural gas was sold at spot. Volumes above contracted levels are sold in the spot market, which realized approximately
US to$14.00 US /Mcf in October, with some sales above$16.00 US /Mcf. That compares with a Q3 2026 corporate realized natural gas price of$20.00 US /Mcf.$8.59 - Record Volumes: Record quarterly net sales volumes of 23,164 Mcf/d (3,861 boe/d), or approximately 42,500 Mcf/d gross, up
63% from Q2 2026 and15% from Q3 2025. Adjusting Q3 2025 Sinu-9 volumes to the Company's current39% working interest (from72% ), volumes rose73% on a like-for-like basis. Growth was driven by the new Aruchara-5 well and the Aruchara-1 workover at Maria Conchita, and by higher deliverability at Sinu-9. - Record Sales: Record quarterly natural gas and NGL sales of
US (revenue, net of royalties, of$18.3 million US ), up$14.2 million 70% from Q2 2026 and32% from Q3 2025. Year-to-date sales wereUS , up$38.7 million 28% year-over-year. - Operating Costs: Operating expenses per Mcf fell to
US /Mcf from$6.04 US /Mcf in Q2 2026 and$6.56 US /Mcf in Q1 2026. Approximately$6.81 US per month of operating costs are fixed in nature, including contracted take-or-pay plant capacity in each of Maria Conchita and Sinu-9. As such, operating expenses per Mcf will continue to fall as natural gas volumes rise to fill take-or-pay volume capacity. Q3 2026 operating expenses included non-recurring well servicing costs at Maria Conchita, which were incurred in July and August. Overall, operating expenses for September 2026 were$3.4 million US /Mcf, as expenses reflected regular recurring operating costs. Management expects operating expenses per Mcf to remain at or below September 2026 levels for Q4 2026.$4.60 - Operating Netback: Natural gas Operating Netback after lease payments turned positive for the first time in 2026, at
US /Mcf (operating income of$0.32 US ). That compares with$0.7 million US /Mcf in Q2 2026 and$(0.50) US /Mcf in Q1 2026. In September, it rose to$(2.68) US /Mcf on a normalized basis. Note that reported operating costs include unused capacity on take-or-pay contracts that the Company entered into as part of its growth strategy.$1.50 - Capital Expenditures:
US in Q3 2026 ($18.1 million US YTD), directed to Maria Conchita's Aruchara-5 & Aruchara-6 wells and the Aruchara-1 workover, and Sinu-9's Hechicero-1X, Magico-2X & Encantado-1X wells.$42.8 million - Balance Sheet: At September 30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents were
US . Adjusted Net Debt was$41.7 million US . This is down$25.7 million 57% fromUS at December 31, 2025, reflecting the positive impact of the previously disclosed Sinu-9 Transactions, including receipt of the full$60.5 million US from Etablissements Maurel & Prom S.A. ("Maurel & Prom"). Furthermore, July 2026 warrant exercises raised$150 million C . As of September 30, 2026, the undiscounted principal balance of the Macquarie facility was unchanged at$26.5 million US drawn, with NGE remaining in compliance with all covenants.$23.0 million
Subsequent to Quarter-End:
- Maria Conchita – Aruchara-6: Placed on production following initial flow testing at up to 8.7 MMcf/d gross (6.96 MMcf/d net), and the Company expects Maria Conchita field production to increase to above 20.0 MMcf/d gross (16.0 MMcf/d net), up from 15.8 MMcf/d gross, while an evaluation of the field is taking place to continue the maximization of production. Net figures for Maria Conchita are calculated based on the Company's
80% private economic interest, derived from private agreements, and not on the contractual interest registered with the Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos. - Sinú-9 – Increased Export Capacity: The Jobo pipeline loop was completed, raising Sinú-9 export capacity to 40 to 45 MMcf/d gross (15.6 to 17.6 MMcf/d net) from 30 MMcf/d gross.
- Sinú-9 – Encantado-1X: The Sinú-9 Consortium, through its Operator, Maurel & Prom Colombia Sociedad Limitada, completed the Encantado-1X well on November 9 and began production testing at 9.8 MMcf/d gross, followed by 15.0 MMcf/d gross on November 10 (instantaneous rates). The Operator also plans a workover at Hechicero-1X to open an additional zone and sustain production levels close to the field's transport capacity.
Jorge Fonseca, CEO of NG Energy, commented:
"Q3 was a record quarter for NG Energy, for both volumes and price, and the three things that drive our netback, volume, price and cost, are now all moving in our favor. Volumes are rising: since quarter-end, Aruchara-6 has come on production at Maria Conchita, and the Encantado-1X well, operated by Maurel & Prom for the Sinú-9 Consortium, reached an instantaneous rate of 15.0 MMcf/d gross in production testing. Prices are rising: new Maria Conchita contracts are expected to be entered into and take effect on December 1 at above

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures
This news release refers to certain financial measures that are not standardized under IFRS Accounting Standards and that may not be comparable with similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures are used by management to assess the Company's performance and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures are set out below and in the MD&A.
"Operating income (loss)" is revenue, net of royalties, less operating expenses and lease payments for operations. Operating Netback is operating income (loss) expressed per Mcf of net sales volumes. The Company presents Operating Netback both before and after lease payments for operations because, following the May 2026 amendment of the BOOMT Agreement, a portion of the Maria Conchita treatment-facility cost that was previously presented as lease payments is now presented as operating expenses.
"EBITDAX" is defined as consolidated net income adjusted for interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, exploration expenses and other non-recurring or non-cash charges. A reconciliation of EBITDAX for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, is as follows:

Boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf : 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of natural gas as compared to crude oil is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.
Information Regarding the Company's Working Interest Disclosure
The Company's contractual interest in the exploration and production contracts for both the Sinú-9 Block and the Maria Conchita Block is held through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Operadora NG Energy International, S.A., which operates in
In both this news release and the Company's previous news releases, the term "working interest" ultimately refers to the rights and obligations agreed to eventually materialize a contractual interest in an exploration and production contract before the ANH, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions. These conditions involve the assumption of financial risks and are generally linked to exploration pursuant to joint operating agreements. Once such conditions are fulfilled, the acquisition of a registered contractual interest, as a party of record, in the exploration and production contract may be formalized through a request for approval of an assignment before the ANH.
The assignment and allocation of "working interests" does not affect or undermine, in any way, the rights and obligations of the registered parties under the relevant exploration and production contracts. The registered parties, such as Operadora NGE, remain wholly and totally liable before the ANH, the Colombian authorities and third parties in connection with any and all obligations, risks and liabilities arising from the execution, performance or termination of the exploration and production contracts. Conversely, the rights and obligations that comprise "working interests" are enforceable only among the parties to the relevant private agreements, and have no legal effect before the ANH, the Colombian authorities or third parties. Accordingly, references to "working interests" in this news release do not constitute official information on the ownership of the exploration and production contracts, which corresponds solely to the contractual interests registered with the ANH, as set out below.
With regard to the Sinú-9 Block, the Sinú-9 Consortium, consisting of Maurel & Prom Colombia Sociedad Limitada (Operator –

FAQ
AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.
What were NG Energy’s Q3 2026 sales and net loss?
NG Energy reported US$18.3 million in natural gas and liquids sales and a net loss of US$6.667 million for Q3 2026. Sales increased 32% year over year, while the loss narrowed from US$7.117 million a year earlier.
When does NG Energy expect Maria Conchita gas contracts to reprice?
The company expects new two-year contracts to take effect on December 1, 2026, covering up to 10.0 MMcf/d gross at prices above US$18.00/Mcf. These would take contracted volumes to up to 20.0 MMcf/d gross, following the November 30 expiry of existing contracts covering 5.0 MMcf/d gross.
How did the Sinú-9 transaction affect NG Energy’s nine-month funds flow?
Nine-month funds used in operations included US$18.0 million of current income tax arising from the gain on the Sinú-9 transactions. Excluding that amount, funds used in operations were US$15.6 million, compared with US$33.6 million including it.
Why are NG Energy’s operating expenses and lease payments not directly comparable across May 2026?
A May 2026 agreement amendment moved certain Maria Conchita treatment-facility costs from lease payments to operating expenses. The after-lease operating netback measure is unaffected by that classification change, making it the measure used for comparison.
