Echelon Resources Limited has agreed to sell a 19.99% stake in Cue Energy Resources Limited to Horizon Oil Limited via an off-market transaction priced at A$0.115 per share, subject to regulatory approvals in the Northern Territory. The sale is scheduled to complete shortly after the end of Horizon’s proposed takeover offer period, provided the bid becomes unconditional.

The move marks a potential reshaping of Echelon’s indirect holdings in Cue and could alter ownership dynamics across their shared oil and gas asset base, with further market updates promised as the transaction progresses.
