Message from the CEO

I am very pleased with the strong operational execution during the third quarter. With Garn West South now on stream and the planned maintenance campaign at Draugen successfully completed, we are well positioned to deliver 2026 production towards the high end of our guidance range. We also expect Bestla to come on stream before year-end, ahead of schedule and at lower expected cost than previously estimated.

These achievements bring OKEA closer to an important inflection point. Investments made over the past years are translating into higher production, while our investment profile is reducing and becoming increasingly focused on flexible, shorter-cycle opportunities. As we enter 2027, this combination strengthens our cash flow outlook and increases our flexibility to balance shareholder distributions with value-accretive investments.

Reflecting this outlook and a strong current market, the company has decided to resume quarterly dividends with the first payment of NOK 2.00 per share already in December 2026. The intention is also to distribute at least NOK 1.00 per share quarterly in 2027, underlining our commitment to sustainable shareholder distributions.

At the same time, we are progressing the next phase of OKEA's growth. Springmus East at Draugen was sanctioned during the quarter and is expected on stream in the second half of 2027. Talisker West at Brage is also progressing towards drilling and production in 2027, while we continue to mature and high-grade our exploration portfolio, with an ambition to increase activity from up to four wells per year currently to up to six wells per year by 2030.

Our priorities remain clear: safe, reliable and cost efficient operations, disciplined capital allocation and a strong balance sheet, while delivering attractive shareholder returns and investing selectively in future growth. This remains at the core of OKEA's strategy.

Total operating income of USD 332 (334) million comprises:

  • Revenues from sales of petroleum products of USD 316 (313) million. The increase was due to higher realised gas and NGL prices, partly offset by lower volumes sold and lower realised crude prices. Sold volumes amounted to 33,449 (34,413) boepd. The realised liquids price was USD 94.6 (104.2) per boe, comprising USD 96.6 (116.9) per boe for crude and USD 58.4 (55.3) per boe for NGL. The average realised price for natural gas amounted to USD 121.3 (88.1) per boe.

  • Other operating income of USD 16 (21) million was mainly due to a gain of USD 28 million relating to the sale of Mistral. This was partly offset by a hedging loss of USD 20 (gain of 15) million following an increase (reduction) in forward prices. Tariff income at Gjøa and Statfjord amounted to USD 7 (6) million.

    Total operating expenses of USD 228 (267) million comprises:

  • Production expenses of USD 87 (89) million, corresponding to USD 29.5 (34.0) per boe. The decrease in cost per boe was due to less maintenance shutdowns compared to previous quarter. However, the cost remains higher than average due to the planned maintenance at Draugen.

  • Changes in over-/underlift positions and production inventory resulting in an expense of USD 20 (28) million as sold volumes exceeded produced volumes.

  • Depreciation of oil and gas properties amounting to USD 56 (47) million. The increase was mainly due to higher production.

  • Impairments of USD 33 (94) million relate to a fixed asset impairment on Statfjord as a result of reduced volume estimates and increased capex, partly offset by increased forward prices. The related post-tax expense amounted to USD 7 ( 27) million.

  • Exploration and evaluation expenses of USD 28 (5) million. The increase was due to expensing of previously capitalised cost on Alpehumle and Prince of USD 23 million.

  • General and administrative expenses of USD 4 (4) million.

    Net profit of USD 29 (14) million comprises:

  • Profit from operating activities of USD 103 (67) million.

  • Net financial income of USD 3 (loss of 2) million.

  • Tax expense of USD 77 (51) million, which translates into an effective tax rate of 73% (78%). The effective tax rate was below the marginal tax rate mainly due to the gain on the Mistral sale which is not taxable.

Earnings per share amounted to USD 0.28 (0.14).

Statement of financial position

Goodwill of USD 88 (85) million comprises USD 71 (68) million of technical goodwill and USD 17 (16) million of ordinary goodwill.

Oil and gas properties amounted to USD 838 (812) million. The increase was largely driven by investments of USD 80 (81) million relating to production drilling at Draugen and Statfjord as well as progress on the Bestla and Power from Shore development projects. This was partly offset by impairment of the Statfjord asset of USD 33 (86) million and depreciation of USD 55 (47) million.

Other non-current assets of USD 523 (485) million mainly comprise asset retirement reimbursement rights of USD 428 (450) million relating to the obligation of Equinor, Shell and Harbour Energy to cover future decommissioning costs for Statfjord, Draugen, Gjøa and Brage respectively. Capitalised exploration and evaluation assets amounted to USD 12 (17) million, and right-of-use assets amounted to USD 78 (13) million. The increase in right-of-use assets was due to a new vessel lease replacing an expired contract.

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to USD 414 (296) million.

Other current assets of USD 357 (287) million mainly comprise trade and other receivables of USD 192 (136) million, spare parts, equipment and inventory of USD 67 (61) million, placements in money-market funds of USD 62 (59) million, and current portion of asset retirement reimbursement rights of USD 36 (31) million.

Interest bearing bond loans of USD 296 (296) million comprise the OKEA05 and OKEA06 bonds.

Other long-term liabilities of USD 1,223 (1,172) million mainly comprise asset retirement obligations of USD 974 (977) million which are partly offset by the asset retirement reimbursement rights outlined above. In addition, deferred tax liabilities amounted to USD 177

(175) million.

Income tax payable amounted to USD 179 (138) million.

Other current liabilities of USD 383 (256) million comprise trade and other payables of USD 324

(216) million and current asset retirement obligations of USD 38 (31) million.

Asset classified as held for sale of USD 0 (19) million and liabilities directly associated with assets classified as held for sale of USD 0 (15) million relate to the Mistral transaction which closed in September. Reference is made to note 29 for further details.

Net cash flows from investment activities amounted to USD -67 (-77) million. The decrease was mainly due to USD 32 (0) million in proceeds received from sale of the Mistral licence. This was partly offset by increased investments in oil and gas properties of USD 81 (74) million mainly comprising of production drilling at Draugen and Statfjord as well as progress in the Bestla and Power from Shore development projects.

Net cash flows from financing activities amounted to USD -2 (-15) million. The decrease was due to semi-annual interest on both outstanding bonds paid in the previous quarter.

Cash and cash equivalents ended at USD 414 (296) million. Reference is made to note 18 for further details. In addition to the cash balance, USD 62 (59) million was placed in money-market funds classified as other current assets.

Financial risk management

The current hedging programme provides downside protection for future revenues while limiting exposure to prices above the ceiling levels.

Global energy markets have been highly volatile in recent months. At the balance sheet date, the company's collar based hedging portfolio resulted in a loss of USD -20 (gain of 15) million, which was recognised in other income in the statement of comprehensive income. The loss reflects an increase (reduction) in crude oil forward prices during the quarter. There are currently no hedging positions for crude in place beyond Q4 2026.

Production efficiency is calculated as actual production of main product divided by the total of actual production of main product, scheduled deferment and unscheduled deferment.

Deferment is the reduction in production caused by a reduction in available production capacity.

QHSSE and ESG

Preventing harm to people's health and the environment is a key priority, and work to ensure safe working conditions is a continuous focus in OKEA.

An oil leak on Draugen was detected and has been preliminary categorised as a serious incident due to uncertainty related to volume. The source was located and the leak stopped. Investigation of the incident is ongoing and will include a final assessment of classification.

With two serious incidents recorded in the quarter, SIF increased to 0.9 (0.4). One incident was a potential for personnel injury and the other was the oil leak described above. In addition, two incidents with medical treatment resulted in an increase in TRIF to 7.8 (7.7). The increase is taken seriously and work to implement preventive measures across operations is ongoing.

GHG emissions intensity was 31 (33) kg CO2e per boe produced.

The share of females recruited over the last 12 months was 25 (42)%.

Higher production volumes and production efficiency resulted from stable production and improved performance from the satellite fields.

Gas production remained stable in the quarter. To maintain liquids offtake, four new wells and two additional wells equipped with electric submersible pumps (ESPs) are planned for operation by end of 2027.

Based on recent production performance, it is expected that more water production is required to ensure gas release and to recover the reserves. Capex estimates have been increased to allow for drilling of additional water producers to recover the remaining reserves.

Higher production volumes were a result of high production efficiency and good well performance.

Drilling operations under the IOR26 campaign has commenced with the first well expected in production around year-end.

Development projects Draugen - Power from Shore (operator, 44.56%)

During the turnaround at Draugen in September, the planned project scope was successfully completed and offshore construction activities continue at full capacity. Fiber-optic communication from shore to Draugen through the power cable has been put into operation. Testing of the onshore power transmission facilities has started and is expected finalised by year-end.

The project will result in an average annual reduction of CO2 emissions of 200,000 tonnes from Draugen and 130,000 tonnes from Njord as well as an average annual reduction of NOx emissions of 1,250 tonnes from Draugen and 520 tonnes from Njord. The project will also result in reduced production expenses and extend the economic life of the Draugen field. Project completion is expected in 2028.

Bestla (operator, 39.2788%)

The Bestla project is progressing ahead of plan, and is only left with commissioning and start-up preparations. Expected production-start is before year-end 2026.

The activity level at Brage has been high during the quarter, with focus shifting from construction to commissioning and start-up preparations. Subsea installations were completed in September.

The Bestla field is developed as a two-well tie-back to the Brage field and contains estimated gross recoverable reserves of 24 mmboe. Plateau production is expected within the first year of production with approximately 10 kboepd net to OKEA.

Exploration Update on key exploration projects:

Drilling of the PL 1153 Alpehumle prospect (20% WI) has been completed. The well was classified as a non-commercial gas discovery. The license will continue to process new data and evaluate potential remaining prospectivity.

The PL 1014 Arkenstone well (20% WI) is a high-impact opportunity located in the Northern Norwegian Sea and is operated by Equinor. Drilling of the well is expected in the first quarter of 2027.

The PL 1214 Kyllinglår prospect (28% WI) is scheduled for drilling in the fourth quarter of 2026. The well is operated by Equinor and is planned drilled with a semi-submersible rig from existing infrastructure in the Statfjord Nord field.

The PL 1102/1102 B Tverrdal prospect (35% WI) is an infrastructure led exploration well located 13km north of the Brage platform in the North Sea. Tverrdal is operated by OKEA and is scheduled for drilling the second half of 2027.

The PL 153 Trust prospect (12% WI), has been sanctioned in the license. The well is operated by Vår Energi and is planned drilled from existing infrastructure in the Gjøa field in the first half of 2027.

Updates on other exploration related activities

The sale the Mistral South discovery in PL 1119 (20% WI) to Japex Norge AS, was closed in September. The fixed consideration was USD 30 million. In addition, a contingent consideration assures upside given a commercial Mistral Nord discovery.

OKEA continues to focus on maturing and high-grading the exploration portfolio, and the ambition is to increase the activity level from the current up to 4 wells per year to up to 6 wells per year by 2030.

Applications for APA2026 (Awards in Pre-defined Area) was submitted in the third quarter. Acreage awards are expected announced in January 2027.

‌Notes to the interim financial statement

  1. General and corporate information

    These financial statements are the unaudited interim condensed financial statements of OKEA ASA for the third quarter of 2026.

    OKEA ASA ("OKEA" or the "company") is a public limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Norway, with its main office located in Trondheim. The company's shares are listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange under the ticker "OKEA".

    OKEA is a leading mid- and late-life operator on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS).

  2. Basis of preparation

    The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for 2025. The annual financial statements for 2025 were prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (EU) and in accordance with the additional requirements following the Norwegian Accounting Act.

    All figures in the financial statements are presented in USD. OKEA's functional currency is NOK, however from Q1 2025 the company has presented its financial statements in USD.

    For presentation purposes, balance sheet items are translated from functional currency to presentation currency using spot rates at the balance sheet date. Items recognised in profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated from functional currency to presentation currency using average exchange rates for the periods presented, or exchange rates at transaction dates where these differ significantly. Historical exchange rates are used for share capital and share premium.

    The interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the company's board of directors on 2 November 2026.

  3. Accounting policies

    The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the annual financial statements for 2025. New standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards effective from 1 January 2026 did not have significant impact on the financial statements.

  4. Critical accounting estimates and judgements

    Preparation of the interim financial statements entails use of judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the amounts recognised as assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates, and associated assumptions, are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered as reasonable under the circumstances. The actual results may deviate from these estimates. The material assessments underlying the application of the company's accounting policies, and the main sources of uncertainty, are the same for the interim financial statements as for the annual accounts for 2025.

  5. Business segments

    The company's only business segment is development and production of oil and gas on the Norwegian continental shelf.

  6. Income Breakdown of petroleum revenues

  12. Impairment / reversal of impairment

    Tangible and intangible assets are tested for impairment / reversal of impairment whenever indicators are identified and at least on an annual basis. Impairment is recognised when the book value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds the estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset's fair value less costs to sell and value in use and is estimated based on discounted future cash flows. The discount rate applied represents the weighted average cost of capital (WACC).

    Technical goodwill arises as an offsetting account to the deferred tax recognised in business combinations and is allocated to each Cash Generating Unit (CGU). Technical goodwill will be impaired during the life-time of the CGU and is a non-cash expense. As reserves are produced, depreciation of the oil and gas properties (CGU) reduces deferred tax and exposes technical goodwill for impairment.

    Fair value assessments of the company's right-of-use (ROU) asset-portfolio are included in the impairment test.

    Valuation of oil and gas properties and goodwill are inherently uncertain due to the judgemental nature of the underlying estimates.

    Other assumptions

    For oil and gas reserves, future cash flows are calculated on the basis of expected production profiles and estimated proven and probable remaining reserves limited by economic cut-off.

    Future capex, opex and abandonment cost are calculated based on expected production profiles and the best estimate of related cost. The nominal discount rate applied for estimating fair values is 10% post tax. The long-term inflation rate is assumed to be 2%.

    Total cost for CO2 comprises Norwegian CO2 tax and cost of the EU Emission Trading System and is estimated to gradually increase from NOK 1,806 per tonne in 2025 towards a long term price of NOK 2,400 (real 2025) per tonne from 2030 and NOK 3,400 (real 2025) from 2035 in line with price estimates presented by the Norwegian authorities in 2025. NOx prices are estimated to increase from approximately NOK 18 per kg in 2025 to a level of approximately 27 NOK per kg from 2030.

    Impairment testing of technical goodwill, ordinary goodwill, fixed assets and ROU assets

    Impairments of oil and gas assets of USD 33 (86) million on Statfjord were recorded in the quarter mainly due to reduced reserve estimates and increased planned Capex.

    Asset retirement reimbursement right consists of a receivable from the seller A/S Norske Shell ("Shell") from OKEA's acquisition of Draugen and Gjøa assets in 2018, a receivable from the seller Harbour Energy Norge AS ("Harbour", previously Wintershall Dea Norge AS) from OKEA's acquisition of the Brage asset in 2022, and a receivable from the seller Equinor Energy AS ("Equinor") from OKEA's acquisition of the Statfjord asset in 2023.

    Receivable from the seller Shell from OKEA's acquisition of Draugen and Gjøa assets:

    The parties have agreed that the seller Shell will cover 80% of OKEA's share of total decommissioning costs for the Draugen and Gjøa fields up to a predefined post-tax cap amount of USD 89 million (2026 value) subject to Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustment. The present value of the expected payments is recognised as a pre-tax receivable from the seller.

    In addition, the seller has agreed to pay OKEA a fixed amount of USD 52 million (2026 value) subject to a CPI adjustment according to a schedule based on the percentage of completion of the decommissioning of the Draugen and Gjøa fields.

    The net present value of the receivable is calculated using a discount rate of 5.7% (year end 2025: 5.3%).

    Receivable from the seller Harbour Energy from OKEA's acquisition of the Brage asset:

    The parties have agreed that Harbour Energy will retain responsibility for 80% of OKEA's share of total decommissioning costs related to the Brage Unit, limited to an agreed pre-tax cap of USD 188 million (2026 value) subject to index regulation.

    The net present value of the receivable is calculated using a discount rate of 5.4% (year end 2025: 5.3%).

    Receivable from the seller Equinor from OKEA's acquisition of the Statfjord assets:

    The parties have agreed that Equinor will retain responsibility for 100% of OKEA's share of total decommissioning costs related to Statfjord A.

    The net present value of the receivable is calculated using a discount rate of 5.0% (year end 2025: 4.8%).

    Provisions for asset retirement obligations represent the future expected costs for close-down and removal of oil equipment and production facilities. The provision is based on the company's best estimate. The net present value of the estimated obligation is calculated using a discount rate of 4.4% (year end 2025: 4.2%). The assumptions are based on the economic environment at balance sheet date. Actual asset retirement costs will ultimately depend upon future market prices for the necessary works which will reflect market conditions at the relevant time. Furthermore, the timing of the close-down is likely to depend on when the field ceases to produce at economically viable rates. This in turn will depend upon future oil and gas prices, which are inherently uncertain.

    For recovery of costs of decommissioning related to assets acquired from Shell, Harbour Energy (previously Wintershall Dea) and Equinor, reference is made to note 15.

OKEA uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices related to future petroleum production. The commodity derivatives consists of option-based structures, including collars, where a sold call option is combined with a purchased put option to reduce the net hedging premium.

Commodity derivative contracts are recognised at fair value in the balance sheet. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss and presented as other operating income/loss. The valuation reflects prevailing market conditions at the reporting date.

As at 30 September 2026, the company's crude oil hedging programme covered approximately 67% of expected Q4 2026 production, net of petroleum tax, through collar contracts. The company had no crude oil hedging positions in place beyond 2026.

The company's gas hedging programme covered approximately 47% of expected Q4 2026 production, net of petroleum tax, gradually decreasing to approximately 20% by Q1 2028, primarily through collar contracts.

As at 30 September 2026, commodity derivatives had a net accumulated unrealised loss of USD 13 million (30 June 2026: unrealised loss of USD 3 million) which has been reflected in the financial statements.

  1. Other provisions

    Other provisions consisted of provisions for additional contingent consideration from OKEA's acquisition of the Statfjord asset in 2023. The provision for contingent consideration was measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in the income statement. The fair value was estimated using an option pricing methodology, where the expected option payoff was calculated at each future payment date and discounted back to the balance date.

    Under the agreement, OKEA was required to pay Equinor additional contingent consideration with payment terms linked to realised oil and gas prices for the period 2023-2025. The final settlement was completed in the second quarter of 2026.
