2020 Annual Report STRATEGIC REPORT let 2020 Annual Report Energean plc www.energean.com Page | 1 STRATEGIC REPORT Key Metrics Highlights Pro 2020 2019 forma 20201,2 Net working interest 2P reserves (MMboe) 982 762 342 Average working interest production (Kboepd) 48.3 3.6 3.3 Sales revenue ($m) 336 28 76 Cost of production ($/boe) 11.3 21.4 22 Adjusted EBITDAX ($m)3 108 (8) 36 Profit after tax ($m) (416) (93) (84) Cash flow from operating activities ($m) 137 2 36 Net debt / (cash) ($m)4 1,240 1,240 562 Report Highlights A year of strong delivery; Karish project 87% complete at year-end The Karish project was approximately 87% complete at year end 2020 (90% at 31 March 2021), signaling a strong year of operational delivery, despite some COVID-19 related challenges during the year, and we expect to deliver first gas within 12-months, in 1Q 2022. Since the year-end, we have also taken Final Investment Decision (“FID”) on Karish North (Israel) and NEA/NI (Egypt), which will lead to the commercialisation of a combined 280 million barrels of oil equivalent (“MMboe”) of 2P reserves and delivering project IRRs of >40% and >30%, respectively. Post- period end, we have further enhanced our Israeli position through the acquisition of Kerogen Capital’s 30% holding in Energean Israel Limited (“EISL”) 5 , adding 219 MMboe for a total consideration of less than $2/boe. Transitioning reserves into cash flows In 2020, pro forma6 working interest production was 48.3 kboepd, around the mid-point of guidance of 44.5 - 51.5 kboepd, with the Abu Qir gas-condensate field, offshore Egypt, accounting for over 70% of total output. On the back of strong operational performance, as well as the maturation of key growth projects, a number of our medium-term targets were enhanced during the period, including our objective to deliver working interest production of more than 200 kboepd, which we expect to translate into annualised adjusted EBITDAX of more than $1.4 billion per year. The next 12 months are expected to be our year of transition, in which the delivery of Karish in 1Q 2022 will accelerate us towards our medium-term goal of paying a meaningful and sustainable dividend. A carbon neutral future We have further developed our decarbonisation strategy, in which we target carbon neutrality7 across all operated assets by 2050 and have delivered a 67% year-on-year reduction in carbon emissions intensity to 22.2 kgCO2/boe, when considering 2020 pro forma8 performance data 1 Pro forma Energean plus the assets acquired from Edison E&P.

Moreover, in our 2020 year-end reporting, we have aligned with the Task Force for Climate Disclosure (“TCFD”) recommendations across all of the TCFD pillars and run scenario analysis across our assets. We also engaged with the Carbon Disclosure Project (“CDP”), achieving a B- score in climate change, putting us among the top third of companies within our sector, and a B score in supplier engagement. Finally, we established a new climate change entity called Egypt Energy Services (EES) to manage energy efficiency projects and evaluate the use of low carbon solutions, including carbon capture and storage. Furthermore, we introduced carbon shadow prices as a key sensitivity tool for decision making. Internal carbon shadow prices have been set at 25 €/t in 2020 gradually increasing to 200 €/t in 2050.

US and certain European indices are currently trading at or around all-time highs, supported by more accommodative monetary policy and central bank adjustments in the face of economic data continuing to point to a deceleration in global economic growth. The FTSE 100 is 8.4% higher than at the start of this year and, while investors still await a final resolution of the UK’s exit from the EU, the more domestically focused FTSE 250 similarly has performed strongly in 2019.

The new UK Corporate Governance Code, to take effect for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, includes some far reaching changes, and the year ahead will be a period of review and change for many companies. Remuneration committees must look at how best to adapt to an expanded remit around workforce remuneration, as well as a greater focus on how judgment is used to ensure that pay outcomes are justified and supported by performance. Against this backdrop, 2018 has been a mixed year in the FTSE 250 executive pay environment. In terms of pay outcomes, the picture is relatively stable. Overall pay levels have fallen for FTSE 250 chief executives and we have seen continued momentum in companies adopting executive alignment features such as holding periods, as well as strengthening shareholding guidelines for executives.

  • The IPO Review EQ Boardroom, Equiniti the IPO REVIEW
    The IPO Review EQ Boardroom, Equiniti THE IPO REVIEW Introduction “I am delighted to present our IPO round-up for 2018. Decisions on whether or not to list had to be taken against a political as well as a financial context, especially by UK boards. With concerns about disruptions to trade, investors have been apprehensive, especially in the latter part of the year. However, we have also seen outstandingly successful listings which have captured investors’ imaginations and turned well-served customers into enthusiastic shareholders. Such successes demonstrate that sophisticated and liquid markets like London cannot be distracted from opportunities to invest in strong and forward-looking enterprises. Overseas companies looking to list are coming to London in ever greater numbers, attracted by our ready capital, transparency and regulatory standards. In this way London continues to help power the global economy and in turn we at Equiniti are proud to help power the London market. As the largest provider of shareholder services in the UK we count the majority of FTSE 100 companies as clients and with our record of helping companies to list, we look forward to swelling their ranks.” Paul Matthews CEO, EQ Boardroom 02 THE IPO REVIEW Contents 02 Introduction 04 Executive Summary 05 Sector Analysis Highlights of Main 06 Market Listings 07 Highlights of AIM Listings The Battle to Attract 08 International Tech IPOs 09 2018 vs 2017 10 Outlook 2019 03 THE IPO REVIEW Executive Summary With global free trade under Stout-hearted retailers also listed Overall the year was down on pressure and the meaning in the year; ignoring the script 2017 in both the number of of Brexit foggier than ever, and raising money to expand listings and the money raised.
