Not completely true highlander..
As previously announced, AAOG Congo is owed approximately US$5.3 million by Société Nationale des Pétroles du Congo ("SNPC") as a result of past work performed on the Licence.
Following Completion, the Company will assume responsibility of all ongoing costs and liabilities in relation to AAOG Congo. Zenith expects to implement a series of cost-cutting measures at AAOG Congo to improve profitability, especially in reaction to the significant recent decline in oil prices.
Andrea Cattaneo, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"Acquiring a 56 percent interest in the potentially transformational Tilapia oilfield, as well as 100% of the approximately US$5.3 million in receivables, for a consideration of £200,000 is a fantastic result made possible by the exceptional circumstances brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the current low oil price environment.
Do think the debtor will squirm and possibly there'll be an arrangement but with zens marketcap being so low anyway even a part payout would be useful imo.
As posted though will wait and see no point getting all excitable either way imo.
