You both continue to be negative on these accounts without actually understanding why the numbers are as they are. 2023 was not 2022. In 2023, oil was not at $100 a barrel, Wressle was not producing a high volume of oil and was shut in for three months producing no revenue, the dollar - pound exchange was not as good. All in all it was yet again an exceptional year for the company. Heid, you state a salary increase? There is NO salary increase, you obviously cannot understand plain English. It was a one off payment to compensate members of the board for not being in receipt of a pension or any other benefits normally afforded by a company to its employees. It is stated quite precisely that salaries will revert to previous levels.
Pboo, you continue, as you have done for many years, to try and turn any news negative.
For all the anti-fossil fuel attacks on oil companies by this government, by activists who are appealing the successful planning applications, the energy profit levy and other restrictions placed on drilling and exploration, it is a considerable achievement for any company to show a profit for last year.
Union Jack remains one of the few to not only present its shareholders with an excellent annual report, it has paid dividends, it has reduced the shares in issue and it has expanded its operations into the USA where it is already generating revenue from their Mineral Royalty portfolio and a successfully drilled, producing well. Know any other Aim listed onshore UK oiler company achieved so much? No, I doubt you do.
