Strengthened Cash GenerationMaterially improved operating and free cash flow in 2025 provides a durable buffer to fund sustaining capital, exploration and near-term development without immediate external financing. Stronger cash conversion increases optionality for project financing and reduces refinancing stress across the cycle.
Improved Balance Sheet With Manageable LeverageLower leverage and a debt-to-equity near 0.30 materially improve financial flexibility versus prior years, lowering refinancing risk while enabling capacity to fund growth projects. Improved ROE (~16%) suggests capital is generating returns, strengthening medium-term resilience.

Successful FID and disciplined capex would diversify the asset base and materially raise sustainable free cash flow.
