Curzon Energy Plc

("Curzon" or the "Company")

Unaudited Half-Year Results for the Six Months Ended 30 June 2022

Curzon Energy plc (LON:CZN) the London Stock Exchange listed oil and gas development company, announces its unaudited interim results for the six months to 30 June 2022.

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

I am pleased to present the interim report for the Company covering its results for the six months ended 30 June 2022.

Financial review

The Company incurred a loss of US$ 180,131 in the period. A majority of this loss comprised expenditures in relation to the maintenance of the commercial potential of its Coos Bay CBM project as well as listing related corporate overheads in London. Additional expenditures were incurred conducting due diligence on a potential transaction with Poseidon Enhanced Technologies (" PET " ).

Net cash of US$ 109,796 as at 30 June 202 2 (US$ 182,200 as at 31 December 20 21 ). Basic loss per share of US$ 0.004 (period ended 30 June 20 21 : US$ 0.00 3).

Given the nature of the business and its development strategy, it is unlikely that the Board will recommend a dividend in the foreseeable future.

Outlook

The Company's near-term goal s remains focused on both exploring ongoing opportunities and license renewals associated with the Company's historic Coos Bay coal bed methane project, as well as exploring a potential reverse takeover transaction. While the Company believes the Coos Bay assets hold residual potential value, the failure of the Jordan Cove LNG terminal to be progressed, the distance from existing oil and gas infrastructure and services, as well as challenges in renewing the historic licenses at a reasonable cost have all proven to be obstacles to reengaging the project.

Due diligence efforts on the potential transaction with PET have taken longer than expected to date with both market turmoil in general and volatility in the plastics markets causing uncertainties on the timing of any transaction. We continue to assess the PET transaction, as well as other potential transactions as the most attractive way forward for the business, however, there remains no certainty that a transaction as currently envisioned will be consummated .

On behalf of the Board, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our staff and advisers for their hard work as well as our shareholders for their continued support.

We will update shareholders on our progress in due course.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REVIEW

While exploring RTO options, the Company remains focused on exploring development opportunities regarding its Coos Bay coal bed methane project, including active renewal discussions regarding license extensions with the two major lease owners.

In London the Company has kept the cost basis low over the course of the year, recognizing the need to maintain a minimum operating base in current market conditions. Meanwhile, discussions and data sharing continue with PET, with the Company looking to provide clarity on the transaction as soon as is feasible.

While the pacing of these developments have been somewhat delayed, we appreciate the patience of all stakeholders as we work through these various delays.

More information on the individual group companies and timing of their acquisition is presented in the Company's audited consolidated financial information and notes thereto for the year ended 31 December 2021.

2. Accounting policies

The Group Financial statements are presented in US Dollars.

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRIC interpretations as endorsed by the EU ("IFRS") and the requirements of the Companies Act applicable to companies reporting under IFRS.

The preparation of the Group financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires the Directors to exercise their judgment in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The Group's accounting policies as well as the areas involving a higher degree of judgment and complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Group financial statements are disclosed in the audited annual report for the year ended 31 December 2021 and are available on the Group's website.

In the opinion of the management, the interim unaudited consolidated financial information includes all adjustments considered necessary for fair and consistent presentation of this financial information. The interim unaudited consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes for the year ended 31 December 2021.

Going concern

The Group financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Directors have assessed the Group's ability to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The operations are currently being financed by third party loans and issuances of new equity. The Group is reliant on the continuing support from its shareholders and the expected support of future shareholders. The Group financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if the Group were not to continue as a going concern.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company, its subsidiaries. More information on the individual group companies, details and timing of their acquisition is presented in the Company's audited consolidated financial information and notes thereto for the year ended 31 December 2019.

At the time of its acquisition by the Company, Coos Bay Energy, LLC consisted of Coos Bay Energy, LLC and its wholly owned US Group. It is the Directors' opinion that the Company at the date of acquisition of Coos Bay Energy, LLC did not meet the definition of a business as defined by IFRS 3 and therefore the acquisition is outside on the IFRS 3 scope. Where a party to an acquisition fails to satisfy the definition of a business, as defined by IFRS 3, management have decided to adopt a "merger accounting" method of consolidation as the most relevant method to be used.

The Group consistently applies it to all similar transactions in the following way:

- the acquired assets and liabilities are recorded at their existing carrying values rather than at fair value;

- no goodwill is recorded;

- all intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains and losses on transactions are eliminated from the beginning of the first comparative period or inception, whichever is earlier;

- comparative periods are restated from the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented based on the assumption that the companies have always been together;

- all the pre-acquisition accumulated losses of the legal acquire are assumed by the Group as if the companies have always been together;

- all the share capital and membership capital contributions of all the companies included into the legal acquiree sub-group less the Company's cost of investment into these companies are included into the merger reserve; and

- the Company's called up share capital is restated at the preceding reporting date to reflect the value of the new shares that would have been issued to acquire the merged company had the merger taken place at the first day of the comparative period. Where new shares have been issued during the current period that increased net assets (other than as consideration for the merger), these are recorded from their actual date of issue and are not included in the comparative statement of financial position.

The results and cash flows of all the combining entities were brought into the financial statements of the combined entity from the beginning of the financial year in which the combination occurred, adjusted so as to achieve uniformity of accounting policies. The comparative information was restated by including the total comprehensive income for all the combining entities for the previous reporting period and their statement of financial position for the previous reporting date, adjusted as necessary to achieve uniformity of accounting policies.

At 30 June 2022, 30 June 2021 and 31 December 2021, the group results include the results of Curzon Energy Plc, Coos Bay Energy, LLC, Westport Energy Acquisitions, Inc. and Westport Energy, LLC.

   2.   Segmental analysis 

In the opinion of the directors, the Group is primarily organised into a single operating segment. This is consistent with the Group's internal reporting to the chief operating decision maker. Separate segmental disclosures have therefore not been included.

   3.   Loss per share 

The basic loss per share is derived by dividing the loss for the year attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares in issue. Diluted loss per share is derived by dividing the loss for the year attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares in issue plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.

The following reflects the loss and share data used in the basic and diluted loss per share computations:

At 30 June 2022, 31 December 2021 and 30 June 2021 the effect of all potentially dilutive instruments was anti-dilutive as it would lead to a further reduction of loss per share, therefore they were not included into the diluted loss per share calculation. Options and warrants, that could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future, but were not included in the calculation of diluted EPS for the periods presented:

*On 6 May 2020, the Company's shareholders approved the subdivision and re-designation of the 83,032,971 Existing Ordinary Shares ("Existing Ordinary Shares") of GBP0.01 each in the capital of the Company into (i) 83,032,971 New Ordinary Shares ("New Ordinary Shares") of GBP0.0001 each and (ii) 83,032,971 Deferred Shares ("Deferred Shares") of GBP0.0099 each in the capital of the Company, and to amend the Company's Articles of Association accordingly.

Each New Ordinary Share carries the same rights in all respects under the amended Articles of Association as each Existing Ordinary Share did under the existing Articles of Association, including the rights in respect of voting and the entitlement to receive dividends. Each Deferred Share carries no rights and is deemed effectively valueless.
