Sharp Revenue DeclineA near 37% drop in revenue materially reduces internally generated funds for capex, maintenance, and distributions. If prolonged, it impairs the company’s ability to invest in development or replace reserves, increasing reliance on external financing and risking long-term production sustainability.
Severe Free Cash Flow DeteriorationA roughly 50% decline in free cash flow constrains liquidity for drilling, facility upkeep, and debt servicing. Persistent FCF weakness undermines strategic flexibility, may force cuts to maintenance or growth capex, and raises the probability of needing external funding under adverse market conditions.
Limited In-house Scale And Operational CapacityA very small employee base suggests heavy reliance on partner operators and limited internal capability to execute projects. This reduces control over operations and pace of development, increasing counterparty and execution risk when scaling production or reacting to operational challenges.
