New Zealand Energy Corp Announces 2021 Quarter 2 Results

Wellington, New Zealand--(Newsfile Corp. - August 25, 2021) - New Zealand Energy Corp. (TSXV: NZ) ("NZEC" or the "Company") announced today it has filed with Canadian regulatory authorities its Q2 2021 consolidated financial results and management discussion and analysis report, which documents are available on the Company's website at www.newzealandenergy.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Commenting on the Company's second quarter 2021 results, Chairman James Willis said "The results saw a total comprehensive income of $117,125. (2020: loss of $391,152). There was a $734,764 decrease in cash held ($285,321 was held at the end of the quarter) with $1,525,000 expended during the quarter on the Tariki 3D seismic project. Cash provided in operating activities for the quarter was $1,142,557 (2020: used $989,081). The Company achieved average net daily production of ~101 boe/d (90% oil) through Q2."

On the subject of current business, Mr Willis stated: "The Company completed acquisition of the 71 sq km Tariki 3D Seismic project on time and on budget and expects the processed data to be ready for interpretation in Q4, 2021. The Convertible Loan transaction announced on 20 July 2021 enabled the funding and execution of this project."

The Company (with its Joint Venturer in the Tariki, Waihapa and Ngaere (TWN) properties) has concluded an agreement, effective from August 1st, 2021, cancelling all future obligations in respect of the Over-Riding Royalty held by Beach Energy Resources NZ (Tawn) Limited (formerly Origin etc etc). The Over Riding Royalty was granted to the former Grantee when the Company purchased the TWN licences in 2013. Mr Willis stated: "Cancellation of this Royalty has been a key objective and a necessary precursor to the Tariki work programme which lies ahead. It is great to have this one behind us."

Projects focussing on increasing oil and associated gas production are well underway. Subject to there being no on-going operations restrictions from New Zealand's latest COVID-19 lockdown, the company should be able to return to continuous oil and gas production at the Waihapa-Ngaere Field by year end."

The Company also advises that the Annual General and Special meeting of New Zealand Energy Corp. will be held at the offices of Straterra, 1st Floor 93 The Terrace, Wellington, New Zealand on 8 October 2021 at 10:00 a.m. (New Zealand Time). The close of business on 7 September 2021 is the record date for determining shareholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting.
