Maha Energy AB undertakes a private placement of 484,212 new shares

The board of directors of Maha Energy AB (the "Company" or "Maha") has resolved to issue 484,212 new shares of class A (the "New Shares") at the fixed subscription price of SEK 10.25 per new share of class A (i.e. in total SEK 4,963,172).

The board of directors adopted the issue resolution with support from an authorization granted at an extraordinary general meeting. The subscription price has been determined based on the market price for the Company's shares during a certain period of time prior to the issue resolution and the board of directors deems the subscription price to be on market terms.

All new shares have been subscribed for by Rothesay Ltd. who was part of the Guarantee Consortium in the Initial Public Offering ("IPO") of the Company carried out earlier this year.  According to this Guarantor, due to an administrative error, 484,212 shares subscribed for in the IPO were sold in the market contrary to certain transfer restrictions ("Lock-up Restrictions") which all Guarantors undertook to be bound by.

In resolution to the Lock Up Restriction irregularities identified above, this Guarantor has agreed to subscribe for a corresponding number of shares at today's market value which is both, considerably higher than the subscription price in the initial public offering and (based on the trading analysis by the Company) considerably higher than the price at which these shares were sold in the market earlier in the year. The New Shares issued will be bound by the same Lock Up Restrictions until 29 January 2017.

The registered share capital of the Company as of today is SEK 799,384 and the total number of shares is 72,671,309 (55,937,987 A-shares, 12,140,795 B-shares and 4,592,527 C-shares (1,844,527 C1 and 2,748,000 C2)). In addition, there are 6,204,963 outstanding warrants (the price for subscription of new A-shares through exercise of warrants is SEK 6.40 and subscription may take place up to and including 15 January 2018). The dilutive effects on the share capital as a result of the private placement will only be minor.

Maha Energy AB announces date of Annual Autumn Shareholder Event and Webcast and provide an Operational Update.

Maha Energy AB (the "Company" or "Maha") today announces the scheduling of an Annual Autumn Shareholders Presentation and Reception to take place in Stockholm, Sweden on 13th October 2016 and provide an operational update.

Annual Autumn Shareholders Event

The Company is pleased to invite its shareholders and members of the investing community to a hosted presentation and reception at 4 pm on 13th October 2016 at the "T-House", Engelbrektsplan 1, 114 34 Stockholm. Mr. Jonas Lindvall – CEO and Managing Director of Maha, will present a broadcasted corporate and operation update for Maha followed by a few words from Maha's Chairman, Mr. Wayne Thomson. Members of the Board of Directors and management will be available for a Q&A session thereafter followed by a reception at the same venue. Maha would be grateful if those attending would pre-register for the event by following the registration procedure on the Company's website www.mahaenergy.ca.

Operations Update

The Company provides an Operational Update as follows:

Canada  (Marwayne and Manitou Properties)

The new operator of the Marwayne and Manitou properties, Petrocapita Energy Inc. is completing its technical review of the properties it acquired from the Receiver-Manager of Palliser Oil and Gas Corp in July 2016. An initial meeting of the partners to review potential development plans for the properties was held in Calgary on September 14, 2016. The Company owns a 50% working interest in the Manitou property and a 30% working interest in the Marwayne property which were acquired from Palliser Oil and Gas Corp. in July 2014. Palliser Oil and Gas Corp was placed in receivership in February 2015.

Wyoming (LAK Ranch Property)

At the end of 2015, a series of combined field studies, core analysis and computer modelling demonstrated the positive viability of combined reservoir pressure maintenance and viscosity reduction using hot water.  Taking advantage of the bottoming out of the oil commodity market, the LAK field was shut in at the beginning of April 2016 to undergo an expansive retrofit to convert the field from steam injection to water reinjection.  During the shut-in period, the Company undertook a capital program to create capacity for produced water recycling which is critical for the re-injection of hot water and the pressure maintenance in Phase 3 of the overall field development. This capital work included:

  • Purchasing and commissioning of two completely refurbished heated and insulated 750 bbl each water tanks to provide hot purge water for the high pressure water injection pump.
  • Installation of a 3" hot water re-circulation line from the tank battery to the purge tanks.
  • Upgrading of the water treatment facilities to enable re-circulation of produced water.
  • Fabrication and installation of alkaline and de-oxygenation skids.
  • This project, which is substantially complete, will allow for the complete treating and re-cycling of all of the Company's produced water which in turn streamlines and significantly reduces the operating cost of heating and pressure maintenance of the reservoir.  Commencement of water reinjection is scheduled for the first of October 2016.  In anticipation of the hot water pressure maintenance program, 4 wells have been placed back on production and as the project is rolled out, more wells will be brought back on production.  Simultaneous to recharging the reservoir, Maha continues to plan to begin the Phase 3 development which will include the drilling of production wells with associated hot water injection wells.

    Maha's US technical team continues to put the finishing touches to the LAK Ranch Full Field Development Plan the finalization of which will be refined based on the results of the current hot water flood program.

    Brazil  (Tartaruga Field)

    The applications to the Agencia Nacional de Petroleo ("ANP") of the Brazilian Government, necessary to approve the change of parent of the Operator of the Tartaruga Field to Maha, were filed on 7th July 2016. Upon this approval, closing under the relevant agreements of Maha's acquisition of a 75% working interest in and operatorship of the Tartaruga Field will commence. Management continues to closely monitor this approval process through its legal counsel in Brazil who have advised it is proceeding normally.

    During the week of September 1st- 9th 2016, Maha's technical team travelled to Aracaju, Brazil for technical meetings with the operator and to commence planning of operations to be commenced immediately upon the above ANP approval and closing. These planned operations will include the workover and recompletion of an existing low production well.  All surface equipment and the proposed production string are on site, with no long lead items required for the proposed workover.  Maha will also commence planning and preparation for the drilling of a horizontal sidetrack whereby an existing production well will be re-entered.  All production wells drilled on Tartaruga hereto have been near vertical and a horizontal well is expected to substantially enhance production from the field.

    The team also attended successful meetings with Petrobras in Aracaju and ANP in Rio de Janeiro, where the future operations were discussed.

A full description of the class A and convertible class B and C shares can be found in note 10 to the second quarter and half year report ending June 30, 2016.

    Brazil Acquisitions

    On March 10, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive purchase and sale agreement with a private, Texas based company, which has a 37.5% working interest in the Tartaruga development block, located in the Sergipe Alagoas Basin of Brazil and is the designated operator of the block.  The acquisition is subject to the approval of the Brazilian Government and the Brazilian National Oil Agency ("ANP").  The Company has paid a refundable deposit in the amount of US$ 500,000.

    On January 18, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive purchase and sale agreement with Petro Vista Energy Corp whereby the Company will acquire an additional non-operated 37.5% working interest in the Tartaruga development block.  The acquisition price of CAD $2.5 million will be paid in equal installments with the first payment upon successful approval of the transaction by the Brazilian Government and ANP and the second payment by December 2016.  Maha has also entered into a loan agreement with Petro Vista Energy Corp whereby funds were provided for Petro Vista to resolve outstanding joint interest billings for up to $815,500.  $750,000 of the loan will form part of the acquisition purchase price in the event of closing while the remaining amount will be deducted from the first installment.

    Upon closing of the two acquisitions, the Company would be the operator and hold a 75% working interest in the Tartaruga Block.  Management has commenced the approval process and believes that the process could be completed during the second half of 2016.

    Results of operations Operations

    Canadian Assets

    For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company generated revenue of $103,085 on an average sales volume of 36 boepd compared with $413,685 of revenue during the six months ended June 2015 from an average of 65 boepd.  Lower production volumes were a result of lower field activity as the operator was in receivership.

    The crude oil produced from the Manitou and Marwayne areas is 12° API.  The Canadian Assets produced a total of 6,119 barrels net to Maha in the first six months of 2016. The average price received was CAD $26.15.

    Operating costs associated with the Canadian Assets were $65,435 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared with $202,188 for the comparable period ended June 30, 2015. Lower operating costs in 2016 were due to lower field activity and reduced workover costs.

    In July 2016, the operator of the Canadian Assets, which had been in receivership since February 2015, was purchased by a Canadian Company.  The new operator has indicated that field activity will increase during the second half of 2016 as they seek to increase production from existing wells by way of workovers.

    LAK Ranch

    As at June 30, 2016, the LAK Ranch asset is considered to be in the pre-production stage and is currently undergoing delineation and pre-development work.  As such, operating costs net of revenues since the commencement of operations have been capitalized as part of the exploration and evaluation costs.

    The LAK field was shut in starting April 2016 and remained shut in as of June 30, 2016, primarily due to low oil prices and the requirement for reservoir pressure maintenance. During the shut-in period, the Company commenced the capital investment to allow for produced water recycling, which is critical for handling of produced water and re-injection of water for pressure maintenance.  The project was completed in August and production from a limited number of wells was re-established by the end of August 2016.

    Technical work completed during 2015 has now laid the groundwork for the full field development plan. The full field development plan contemplates hot water injection, rather than steam playing a more significant role than originally anticipated. The extra cost of hot water injector wells are far offset by the elimination of steam requirements. The field development plan was evaluated by the Company's
    independent reserve auditors, and the Company reserves for LAK Field at the end of November 2015 were 12.9 million barrels of oil ((Proven and Probable (2P)).

    General and administrative

    During the six months ended June 30, 2016, general and administrative ("G&A") costs were $682,090 compared to $681,916 for the same period June 30, 2015.

    Transaction costs

    During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred $435,972 in transaction costs which primarily related to:

    • $350,673 marketing and non-direct costs associated with the Offering and the listing on Nasdaq First North Stockholm;
    • $86,298 in legal and transaction costs associated with the Brazil acquisitions

    Stock-based compensation

    Stock based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $87,384 similar to $65,120 for the comparable period June 30, 2015.

    Maha Energy AB announces the final subscription price and the allotment decision regarding its initial public offering together with an adjusted indicative timetable

    Maha Energy AB (the "Company" or "Maha") today announces the outcome of its initial public offering of units in the form of new shares of class A and warrants giving right to subscribe for new shares of class A (the "Offering") in connection with a planned listing on Nasdaq First North Stockholm.

    The Offering was carried out in order to broaden the shareholder base and provide working capital, mainly to finance development operations and acquisitions. The subscription price, determined based on a book-building procedure, has now been set to SEK 19 per unit (each unit consisting of four (4) new shares of class A and one (1) warrant giving right to subscribe for one (1) new share of class A). Nothing is to be paid for the warrants and the subscription price per share is thus SEK 4.75.

    The board of directors has decided on the following allotment of units in respect of the Offering:

    1. 651,172 units corresponding to approximately SEK 12.4 million were subscribed for by and allotted to the general public; 
    2. 2,168,311 units corresponding to approximately SEK 41.2 million were subscribed for by and allotted in accordance with subscription pre-commitments; 
    3. in the light of the prevailing uncertain market conditions the guarantee consortium has been offered the ability to reduce their respective undertakings in relation to the remaining 5,075,254 units by up to approximately 50%. In exchange for the ability to reduce their respective undertakings (the "Amendment"), the guarantors who choose to sign the Amendment will commit to transfer restrictions (lock-up) in respect of the shares acquired as a result of the guarantee commitments for a period of six (6) months following the first day of trading and the remuneration due to the guarantee consortium under the guarantee agreements will be settled  by the Company by issuing Units to the guarantors instead of making payments in cash; 
    4. if all of the Guarantors sign the Amendment, the Offering will result in gross proceeds to the Company of SEK 107,971,223.  The net proceeds of the Offering will be SEK 98,223,006; and  
    5. if all of the Guarantors sign the Amendment, the Company will issue 515,378 Units to the guarantee consortium in lieu of cash remuneration

    As a result of preliminary discussions the board of directors expects that most, if not all, of the Guarantors will accept the above Amendment. The board of directors, due to market conditions, has decided not to make use of its option to increase the Offering.

    Only subscribers who have been allotted units will receive contract notes and the expected settlement date of the Offering is 6th July 2016. The first day of trading in the Company's shares of class A and warrants giving right to subscribe for shares of class A at Nasdaq First North Stockholm is planned to occur on or about 15 July 2016. 

    The final gross and net proceeds as well as the final share capital increase and number of new shares as a result of the Offering depends on the extent to which the guarantors sign the Amendment described above. The Company will provide an update in this respect once the extent of the take up of the Amendment is ascertained.              

    The Company's CEO Jonas Lindvall comments as follows: "We are very pleased to welcome all our new shareholders and in particular Kvalitena AB, our new cornerstone investor.  This represents a significant milestone for Maha that results in a broadened shareholding base, the capital necessary for rapid growth and liquidity for our shareholders."

    As communicated through a press release on 30 May 2016, the board of directors of Maha Energy AB (publ) (the "Company" or "Maha"), has decided on an initial public offering of units in the form of new shares of class A and warrants giving right to subscribe for new shares of class A (the "Offering").

    A prospectus as well as a supplementary prospectus have been prepared by the board of directors in connection with the Offering and approved by and registered with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Sw. Finansinspektionen) on 31 May 2016 and 7 June 2016 respectively. The supplementary prospectus constitutes a part of, and shall be read together with, the prospectus. One of the reasons for preparing a supplementary prospectus was the board of directors' decision to direct the Offering not only to Sweden but also to the general public in Denmark and Norway and that application for acquisition of units may also be made through Nordnet Bank AB which was communicated through a press release on 7 June 2016.

    The application period started on 7 June 2016 and ends on 20 June 2016 (general public) and 21 June 2016 (institutional investors) respectively. Since the prospectus and the supplementary prospectus had not yet been passported to Norway or Denmark on 7 June 2016, the application period in these jurisdictions starts today.   

    The Offering in brief

    • The Offering is directed to the general public in Sweden, Denmark and Norway as well as to institutional investors in Sweden and internationally.
    • The Offering comprises units up to an amount of SEK 150 million with an option for the board of directors to increase the Offering with additional units up to an additional amount of SEK 25 million.
    • Each unit consists of four (4) new shares of class A and one (1) warrant giving right to subscribe for one (1) new share of class A. 
    • The subscription price per unit shall be not less than SEK 19 and not more than SEK 21, corresponding to a subscription price of not less than SEK 4.75 and not more than SEK 5.25 per share. Nothing is to be paid for the warrants.
    • The subscription price per share through exercise of warrants shall correspond to 135 percent of the final subscription price for one (1) new share in the Offering.
    • Subscription for shares through exercise of warrants will be possible for a period of 18 months from the date of registration of the warrants with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.   

    The Offering is conditional upon the Company meeting First North's ownership distribution requirements and that no circumstances arise in which the Offering would be considered inappropriate by the board of directors of the Company. The Offering may thus be cancelled under such circumstances.
