Commenting on the update, Neil Cousins, Non-Executive Chairman
of Dial Square said:
"We chose EnergyPathways as the RTO target on the basis of its
strong investment story and supportive market drivers.
EnergyPathways' story is highly topical and relevant to the UK
market, and the value upside potential is clear to see from the
Marram project economics. We were also attracted to their near-term
news flow pipeline which provides plenty of scope for new and
existing investors to benefit from progress towards FID and the
award of additional and complementary licences. We look forward to
communicating this investment proposition to the market in the
coming weeks as we seek to raise the funds to complete the RTO and
admission to AIM in mid-December. I'd like to thank our
shareholders for their patience through this process and we hope to
reward them with what we believe to be a highly compelling and
value-accretive transaction."
Commenting on the process, Ben Clube, CEO of EnergyPathways
said:
"We are very excited to bring our investment proposition to the
London market. We believe the market drivers for our story are
supportive in terms of the UK's focus on Energy Security and demand
for domestic natural gas to support the nation's transition to Net
Zero. Our activities have numerous positive impacts across the
various pillars of ESG in terms of displacing higher-emission and
higher-cost LNG imports and the CCS and Hydrogen storage
characteristics of our focus asset, the economic implications of
job creation and taxation as and when our assets move into
production, and further, the impact that new, cleaner domestic
supply will have in terms of UK's Energy Security and consumer
energy bills.
The economics of the Marram discovery are robust and compelling,
with an NPV10 that represents a large multiple of our current
valuation. Upon completion of the fundraise, we aim to reach FID in
2024 and production of first gas in 2025. With a substantial cash
flow profile in the first two years, we hope investors will be
enthused by the project's rapid rates of return. We are also seeing
an improving political climate for our operations as the Government
implements changes to encourage investment into the vital supply
required to achieve the objectives of the nation's energy
policy."
