ReconAfrica is a Canadian-based oil and gas company working collaboratively with national governments to explore the potential for oil and gas resources in Northeast Namibia on Petroleum Exploration Licence 073 ("PEL 73") and Northwest Botswana on Petroleum Exploration Licence 001 ("PEL 001").
To date, ReconAfrica has been granted licences by Namibia and Botswana to explore and confirm the presence of their hydrocarbon resources. Subject to declaring commerciality, the company is entitled to a long-term production licence to develop conventional hydrocarbons in collaboration with governments, our partners, and other key stakeholders. ReconAfrica has not applied for, does not have the intention to, nor been granted or given, permits to allow 'fracing' - a point which ReconAfrica, and the governments of Namiba and Botswana have publicly confirmed.
This project aims to prove potential economic reserves and support local content including local and regional jobs, national and regional suppliers and other ESG projects such as safe access to potable water, educational and training opportunities and funding in environmental and wildlife conservation, amongst others.
Should oil and gas be discovered and commercialized, the traditional authorities and elected governments of Namibia and Botswana will determine how they will manage their resources.

Investing Highlights
ReconAfrica offers exposure to large exploration opportunities not found with other investment opportunities.
Recon operates in safe jurisdictions onshore Namibia and Angola and in the shallow waters offshore Gabon.
These assets provide shorter cycle times at more affordable exploration and development costs than alternative deep water investment vehicles.
Recon has already derisked its asset portfolio with discoveries in Namibia and Gabon that are moving toward production testing and selection of appraisal drilling locations later this year, which has already been funded.
Investors can have direct exposure to upcoming catalysts over the remainder of 2026.
