About Sound Energy PLC:

Sound Energy is a transition energy investment opportunity, listed on the UK AIM market of the London Stock Exchange, with operations in Morocco centred around onshore exploration, development and production of gas and advancing renewable power generation initiatives. Gas is the focal transition fuel and critical to the country's energy policy to move to sustainable, local renewable energy, away from imported coal and hydrocarbon fuels. The company has a 25-year development concession with a micro- LNG development underway at Tendrara, the first major onshore gas resource in Morocco, and a larger Phase 2 piped gas project awaiting FID. Small scale LNG will supply the industrial market, whilst the piped gas development is for the power sector. Exploration wells are funded to support infrastructure led exploration potential. Together these give the company significant opportunities for scalable growth on its 28,000 square km of onshore permits. Sound Energy is therefore playing a pivotal role in responding to rising energy demand in Morocco and facilitating the energy transition. This is further enhanced by Sound's recent early-stage diversification into opportunities in renewable power generation and hydrogen exploration in Morocco. Sound has strong stakeholder engagement and partnerships with leading Moroccan companies, thereby leveraging in-country expertise in renewable energy projects and its gas developments. Financially, the company is focused on revenue targets from Phase 1 LNG production, judicious investment for the Phase 2 piped gas development and prudent cost management and balance sheet deleveraging to fund asset development opportunities.
