An announcement from Zephyr Energy ( (GB:ZPHR) ) is now available.

Zephyr Energy reported a sharp uplift in fourth-quarter 2025 non-operated output, with production rising 55% from the second quarter to 983 barrels of oil equivalent per day, helped by a US$7.3 million acquisition of mature producing assets. Around a third of forecast non-operated oil output over the next year is now hedged, leaving the balance exposed to strong commodity prices.

The company has recycled value from that acquisition by selling non-core, non-producing acreage and interests for about US$4.7 million in cash and assumed liabilities, while preserving producing volumes and shortening the deal’s payback period. Proceeds and cash flow are being directed toward the flagship Paradox project, where pipeline work by Enbridge and active farm-out and marketing talks are moving Zephyr closer to first commercial production, and the board has also extended broker warrants by one year to 2027.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:ZPHR) stock is a Sell with a £3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Zephyr Energy stock, see the GB:ZPHR Stock Forecast page.
