SDX Energy - Ibn Yunus-1 de-risking Abu Madi Baltim trend

SDX Energy has announced results from the Ibn Yunus-1 well at South Disouq, Egypt (SDX 55%). Ibn Yunus-1 is the second consecutive gas discovery at South Disouq (after SD-1X) and encountered 100.8 net meters of conventional pay in the Abu Madi horizon, with average porosity of 28.5%. The well came in on prognosis but with a reservoir thickness and quality above pre-drill expectations. We expect to de-risk Ibn Yunus on flow testing; however, indicatively moving to an 80% chance of success (equivalent to our risking for SD-1X) from 32% would add 4.4p/share to our RENAV in our 90bcf recoverable case. We recently published a detailed update on our view of the group valuation, which stands at a core NAV of 58.3p/share and RENAV of 65.6p/share.
