Arrow Exploration Corp. (AIM: AXL): US$24 mm capex and up to 9 wells in 2026

• FY25 production averaged 4,012 boe/d; which is in line with expectations.
• Arrow plans to drill up to nine wells in 2026, four of which have already been completed.
• FY 26 Capex is set at US$24 mm, consistent with our forecasts.
• We forecast FY26 production of ~4.8 mboe/d.
• The FY27 drilling programme will depend on the Tapir licence extension, which will determine the scale and pace of activity.
• The M‑HZ12 well at Mateguafa Attic is currently cleaning up; we expect further details next week.
• The rig is now moving to the Icaco prospect, a key exploration well. Our unrisked NAV for Icaco is £0.13 per share, based on 3.7 mmbbl WI prospective resources.
• Arrow has identified multiple additional exploration prospects across the Tapir block.
• A new CPR is expected mid‑year, incorporating recent drilling results and performance at Mateguafa Attic.
• The company is also looking at acquisition opportunities.
• We reiterate our target price of £0.45 per share.

Valuation
• Our Core NAV stands at £0.35 per share, with a ReNAV of £0.47 per share, based on Brent assumptions of US$77.5/bbl for 2026, US$71.2/bbl for 2027, and US$70/bbl thereafter.
• We forecast net cash of US$37 mm at YE26 and US$50 mm at YE27. For now, we assume minimal capex from 2028 onward, resulting in net cash of US$78 mm at YE28.
• At US$80/bbl, we estimate net cash of US$57 mm at YE27 and US$90 mm at YE28.
• At US$90/bbl, net cash would increase to US$66 mm at YE27 and US$103 mm at YE28.
