Notes to Editors
Reabold Resources plc is an investing company investing in the exploration and production ("E&P") sector and has
a diversified portfolio of assets in upstream oil & gas projects. Reabold aims to create value from each project by
investing in undervalued, low-risk, near-term projects and by identifying a clear exit plan prior to investment. The
Company's investing policy is to acquire direct and indirect interests in exploration and producing projects and
assets in the natural resources sector, and consideration is currently given to investment opportunities anywhere
in the world.
Reabold's long term strategy is to re-invest capital made through its investments into larger projects in order to
grow the Company. Reabold aims to gain exposure to assets with limited downside and high potential upside,
capitalising on the value created between the entry stage and exit point of its projects. The Company invests in
projects that have limited correlation to the oil price.
Reabold has a highly-experienced management team, who possess the necessary background, knowledge and
contacts to carry out the Company's strategy.
* Pmean is Swanson Mean calculated as P90x0.3 + P50x0.4 + P10x0.3.
All Pmean, geological chance of success and NPV figures are Reabold's in-house estimates.
