New Zealand Energy Corp. (TSX-V: NZ): Unconsequential delays to drilling. Tariki-5 still due to spud in September

• Commencement of drilling operating at the high impact Tariki field is likely to be delayed by two weeks.
• This has no impact on our valuation. Our unrisked NAV for the Tariki-5 well is C$4.90 per share, including C$2.50 per share for the oil target and the balance for the low risk gas target (2P reserves).
• In addition, this will will open the future gas storage business (unrisked NAV C$0.80 per share).
• The current planning indicates well drilling operations may not commence at Tariki until 23 September 2024, with drilling, completion & tie-in of the well likely completed by 11 November 2024.
• Initial production is expected to be around 6-8 mmcf/d growing to 20 mmcf/d within 10 months once New Zealand Energy has upgraded its facilities to comply with current safety and production standards.
• We re-iterate our target price of C$5.00 per share that also includes the potential upside associated with oil opportunities in the Tikorangi reservoir.
