Operator

Good morning and welcome to Capricorn's full year results presentation. I will now hand the call over to CEO Wendy Neely. Please go ahead.

Randy Neely
Capricorn Energy PLC - Chief Executive Officer, Executive Director

Thank you. Good morning and thank you all for joining us for Capricorn's 2025 full year results presentation. I'm Randy Neely and I'm joined today by our CFO, Eddie Ok and our COO, Geoff Probert.

First, let me take a moment to address the evolving situation in the Middle East and particularly the conflict involving the US, Israel, and Iran. We are closely monitoring these developments, and our operations in Egypt remain stable and unaffected. It is very much business as usual for us on the ground in Egypt.

Now before we dive into the main presentation, I want to briefly address the recent media speculation regarding a potential offer for Capricorn. I understand there may be considerable interest, but due to takeover code.

I am unable to provide any specific information beyond what was in the statement earlier this
