Key Highlights
During the financial year ended March 31, 2023, the Group:
• The Group generated revenues from oil and natural gas of CAD$13,159k (2022 – CAD$8,239k)
• As of March 31, 2023, inventory consists of CAD$6,448k (2022 – CAD$5,690k) related to 116,391 barrels of crude oil that has been produced but not yet sold in Tunisia.
• The Company sold 177,246 mcf of natural gas from its Italian assets, as compared to 131,556 mcf of natural gas in the 2022 similar period.
Andrea Cattaneo, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“The results for the 2023 FY represent the highest revenue generation recorded by the Company during its history. This is a significant achievement made possible, inter alia, by the exceptional energy pricing climate during the period, specifically in Italy where profitability margins have been unprecedented.
It is also important to underline that administrative expenses have been reduced materially, with a decrease of approximately 30 percent in comparison to the 2022 FY.
Zenith has newly embarked on an exciting acquisition campaign, with multiple potential acquisition opportunities currently under review across different geographies. It is the Board’s intention to build on the progress achieved during the 2023 FY to maximise revenue generation and profitability in the interests of the Company’s successful long-term development.”
