Genel Energy ( (GB:GENL) ) has issued an announcement.
Genel Energy reported 2025 working interest production of 17,520 barrels of oil per day from Tawke, all sold into the domestic Kurdistan market at an average $32 per barrel, generating $68.7m of revenue and a $43.3m EBITDAX despite lower Brent prices. The company ended the year with $224m of cash and $133.7m net cash, having refinanced its bond to 2030, improved netback to $10m and exited five loss-making licences in Kurdistan and Africa without residual liabilities.
Management stressed a more resilient, cash-generative platform, as free cash flow remained positive at $4.1m and overdue receivables from the Kurdistan Regional Government net of credits were reduced to about $48m, while a $26m arbitration-related charge is under appeal. Although regional hostilities and earlier drone attacks forced temporary production halts at Tawke and exports via the Iraq–Türkiye pipeline were not yet resumed by Genel, the company expects Tawke’s domestic sales and new drilling to cover group costs in 2026, while investing up to $20m in Omani and Somaliland exploration and targeting asset acquisitions, export restart and eventual shareholder distributions.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:GENL) stock is a Hold with a £66.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Genel Energy stock, see the GB:GENL Stock Forecast page.
