    On 31 Dec 2025, the Company through Aradel Energy Limited, its wholly owned subsidiary, acquired an additional 40% equity of ND Western Limited for a consideration of $300million, obtaining control and accounting for the transaction as a business combination under IFRS 3. The identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recognised on a provisional basis, pending completion of independent valuations. The Company expects to finalize the valuation to determine the final values within the measurement period, which will not exceed 12 months from the acquisition date as permitted by IFRS 3.

    Based on provisional estimates, the acquisition resulted in a provisional bargain purchase gain of 201billion ($133million), reflecting the difference between the consideration transferred and the fair value of net identifiable assets. Any adjustments arising from the completion of valuation work will be applied retrospectively and may affect the amount of the gain recognized.

    The additional 40% acquisition in ND Western was completed on 31st December 2025. It was deemed immaterial to consolidate the income statement however, the statement of financial position has been consolidated resulting to the elimination of the investment in associate balance. The share of profit from both ND Western Limited and Renaissance Africa Energy Holding Limited is reported in the income statement.
