Good afternoon. Thank you for joining Romgaz Group Conference Call on the Preliminary Results for 2025. Following a brief introduction of our speakers, Mr. Răzvan Popescu, Chief Executive Officer, will provide an overview of the preliminary results recorded by Romgaz Group in 2025, after which we will proceed to the Q&A session. Please be advised that this conference is being recorded for internal purposes. On behalf of the company, the following speakers attend this conference: Mr. Răzvan Popescu, Chief Executive Officer; Ms. Gabriela Trâmbițaș, Chief Financial Officer; Mr. Radu Moldovan, Energy Trade Director; and Mr. Ion Foidaș, Production Department Director. With that, I will now invite Mr. Răzvan Popescu for the opening presentation. Good afternoon to everyone, thank you for joining our conference call to discuss the preliminary results for 2025, which we published today, it comprises the key economic and unaudited financial results for the group in the selected period. An overall presentation will be available on our website in the Investor section. I would like to take this opportunity to address certain aspects regarding the market context last year with impact on our group's performance. Natural gas consumption in Romania rose by 1.1% last year, according to our estimates, with gas imports recording a significant advance to a 30% weight in the national gas consumption. The Romanian Commodities Exchange posted again weak trading liquidity as a result of the current regulation in force, we estimate that the average wholesale price increased by almost 30% year-over-year. On the Central European Gas Hub, the average monthly reference price also rose around 17% in 2025, according to the data provided by ANRE. In respect to the fiscal environment in the gas and energy sector, Romgaz activity were mainly impacted by GEO no. 27, which was effective from 1st April 2022, and subject to subsequent amendments, and GEO no. 6 that started in April 2025. We would like to remind the main provision that applied to gas producers last year. Regulated gas selling price of RON 120 per MWh for the gas sold to households and supplier of households, heat producers and their suppliers for the production of thermal energy for households, and to the transmission operator and gas distributions to a maximum of 75% of their technological consumption. This price level is applied starting from April 2024 and up to the end of March 2026. For the gas sold at regulated prices, payment of the windfall profit tax is exempt, and gas royalties are computed based on these regulated prices. Regarding the operational and financial performance recorded by Romgaz in 2025, we can highlight the following main activities. Natural gas consumption amounted to 4.95 BCM, marginally adjusted by 0.2% year-on-year, favorably within the strategic objective of the natural decline threshold of 2.5%. We achieved this important performance through continuous efforts aiming to consolidate the potential of our onshore production, which included completion of investment works to extend production infrastructure, allowing us to stream into production six new wells. Specific investment works in inactive or low-flow wells, resulting in reactivation of 175 wells that generated a total flow of over 300 million cubic meters. Continuous rehabilitation projects of our main and mature gas reservoirs in order to maximize production and increase the recovery factor. We completed drilling of one new production well, finalized seven surface facilities, while other 23 are in different preparatory stages. We can also highlight that all these measures led to a significant 47% increase of our condensate production to over 54,000 tons in 2025, due mostly to higher production in the Caragele field. Regarding the Caragele Deep, works are progressing with the 76 Rosetti well in production test, 54 Damianca well that is being prepared for production test, and 78 Rosetti well that is already in production, while other seven wells are in different stages of drilling preparation. For the last quarter alone, we can mention that gas production amounted to 1.28 BCM, adjusted only by 0.9% from the 1.29 BCM record output that was recorded in Q4 2024, and significantly up by 7.4% compared to the 1.19 BCM that was produced in Q3 2025. We reported total revenues from gas sold of over RON 6.9 billion, marginally adjusted by 0.3%. This was the combined result of a lower average selling price, while gas volume sold increased by 5.5% to 4.82 BCM in 2025, compared to 4.57 BCM in 2024. This is based on net volume extracted and sold from our underground storages and lower deliveries to the Iernut power plant. We hold a substantial position on the Romanian gas market. According to our assessments, Romgaz continued to rank as the leading gas supplier in Romania in the last year, with a significant contribution of 50% in total gas delivery. We are strongly positioning gas consumption covered from domestically produced gas, holding a substantial share of 71% last year, according to our internal estimates. Revenues from storage services advanced by 10% year-on-year to RON 562 million, with injection-related revenues higher by 56% and capacity reservation activities having the largest weight, 55%. We succeeded to increase our revenues from electricity by almost 2% to RON 382 million, while production of our old power plant has expectedly decreased to 7,750 GWh in the last year. The Iernut power plant is still contributing to the security of supply in the energy market in Romania. The group recorded total revenues amounting over RON 8 billion, higher by 1.2% compared to 2024, based mainly on the strong contribution of our upstream segment. Regarding the expenses, the windfall tax recorded a 36% decrease year-on-year to RON 767 million, mostly due to higher gas volume sold at the regulated prices. Gas and UGS royalties adjusted by 6% to RON 559 million. The three main taxes: windfall tax, royalties, and the duty to the Energy Transition Fund, decreased by 26% year-on-year, but still represented a significant expense of RON 1.34 billion in 2025, having thus a positive effect on our profitability. Bottom line, we reported a historical annual net profit of RON 3.35 billion, higher by more than 4% compared to the RON 3.21 billion recorded in 2024, and representing the highest annual value ever recorded by the group. All profitability rates were substantial last year, with net profit margin rose to the highest historical annual value of 41.7%, and both EBITDA and EBIT margin continued to be significant at 54.9% and 46.2%, respectively. For the last quarter alone, we can underline a net profit of RON 912 million, 70% higher compared to the quarterly average of the past three years, and a net profit margin of 46%. Regarding our CapEx, the Romgaz Group invested a consolidated amount of RON 3.86 billion in 2025. Investment in Romgaz Black Sea Limited, which basically is the Neptun Deep, represented RON 2.74 billion from Romgaz alone. With respect to our flagship offshore project, we can mention that it is currently in the execution phase, in line with our programs and budget and the execution calendar. During 2025, significant milestones of the projects included not only start of the construction works of the microtunnel in Tuzla, but also the achievement of all four reservoir targets in the Pelican South field by drilling all the four wells that were in the drilling program. It is important to mention that in December 2025, the Romanian government approved Addendum Number Seven to the concession agreement for the Neptun block, extending the exploration phase in Neptun Deep. And upon the o ne exploration well will be drilled in the deep water area with the aim to identify, evaluate, and exploit further the energy potential of the Black Sea. Another important objective is the combined cycle gas turbine power plant in Iernut, for which the completion rate is around 98% for the overall turnkey project and 90% that was remaining from the last EPC contract. Following the termination of works contract with Duro Felguera as executor of this project on 1 3th October, Romgaz became the general contractor. We are in process to assign the contracts for the essential subcontractors and directly purchase the services and products necessary for the testing and commissioning of the plant. The commissioning of this investment may not exceed 31st December 2026, according to the government decision that was taken at the end of 2025. Another important event was the approval of the company's decarbonization strategy for the 2050 target on 22nd October by the Romgaz board. This strategy was developed in the context of European and national policies aiming to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Our net zero trajectory shall be periodically reassessed based on technological progress, availability of funding, and the clarity of regulations. I would also like to mention that the second issue of the bonds under the EMTN program, which were oversubscribed eight times on October 28th, our new EUR 500 million issue of bonds has a maturity of six years and an annual coupon of 4.625%. The success of the second issuance of bonds confirms the confidence of the institutional investors in the company's development strategy. At the end of the presentation, I would like to emphasize the significant performance recorded by the Romgaz stock on the Bucharest Stock Exchange. SNG share price doubled over the last 12 months period, leading to a current market cap of around EUR 9 billion, Romgaz representing the third largest domestic stock and blue chip on the Bucharest Stock Exchange. With this, I would like to close our presentation, thank you all for your attention. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Popescu. We will now begin the Q&A session. You have two options for addressing your questions: either raise hand and unmute your microphone or submit your questions in writing in the chat window. We have a question from Ms. Daniela Mândru. Hi. Hello. Thank you for the presentation. What I've seen, just compared to my estimates, I've seen some large deviation in the income tax expense. I don't know, you recorded some deferred income tax or something in the last quarter? Yes, hello. For 2025, it's still valid, an ordinance issued a few years ago, which provides for certain discounts, let's call them, on taxation if equity increases. Considering the increase in equity from 2024 to 2025, the income tax benefited from a 14% decrease. Sorry, can you detail what equity increase? Equity in the balance sheet. Equity in the balance sheet. Yes. Yes, please. increased from RON 14 million December 2024, to RON 17 billion in December 2025. Sorry, I don't know what is this regulation. Not regulation, but this exemption referring to. If this equity increase, you can. Can you please detail this tax exemption or what it is? Yes. It's based on an emergency ordinance, number 153, issued a few years ago. I don't recall the exact year. Just a second. It was issued in 2020, and it has several discounts. One of them is if equity increases compared to 2020, it benefits from discount of 3%. Another discount is if equity has an annual increase between 20% and 25%, it benefits from a decrease of 9%, and there's another 2% decrease if. Okay, I understood. I understood the logic behind, but this discount of 3.9% is applied to what? To the full year? To the full year. Yes, to the full- year. Yeah, to the full- year, but applied to what? To the normal income tax, applied to what? Yes, the current income tax, yes. To the current income tax. Okay. I was not from the very beginning, but can you disclose the quantity sold at capped prices in Q4, please? What do you expect for 2026, if it's possible? 2026, unfortunately, we don't have the final ordinance, the ordinance has not been published. The ordinance not having been published, we do not have the current quantities right now. For the entire year of 2025, around 80% of our entire production was sold at regulated prices. Okay. For around the over 80% was sold at regulated prices. Okay. Now regarding the I didn't see the notes, but I believe you don't publish them. Regarding the financial cost and regarding the capitalized interest costs, can you disclose the total interest costs capitalized in the full year or? Yeah, just a second. Of a total income finance cost of RON 183 million, we capitalize RON 69 million for the full year. RON 69 million? Yes. Okay. Please help me a little bit here. I'm not quite familiar with these capitalizations, and so on. When the investment will be fully functional, this cost will be all these interest cost will be reflected in the financial result? No. No. It will be included in the value of the investment, and it will be depreciated based on the useful life of the investment. It will. Yeah, it will be as a depreciation. Yes. Yeah. I've seen at DG, they did the same, but they All the capitalized interest, they put in the financial results. I'm just wondering if you do the same. I don't know the reason why. Okay. For the first quarter of the year, of this year, do you know the volumes at regulated prices? Yes, of course. For the first quarter of 2026? Yes. Yeah, they are the same. It's around 80%-81% for the first quarter of 2026. They are basically the same. Basically the same compared with the last quarter, with the Q1 2025. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's a bit over 10 tera. Yeah. For the first quarter of 2026, it was a little over 10 tera as well for the last quarter of 2025. Okay. regarding the, like, execution of the guarantee, I don't know, because I didn't have time to go through all the notes, the report you published. have you registered them in. Yes. Yes? Yes. Gabi, it's on the register, no? Yes, we recorded the amount that was executed, around RON 60 million. We still have to recover around RON 20 million. The provider of the guarantee will not pay the amount that he owes us that amount was not recorded yet. We are taking action, legal action against him. This amount will be recorded. There are, you can record the remaining of RON 21 million in the first quarter of this year or later? What is your estimate? It depends when they are going to pay. We cannot estimate right now. Okay, thank you. This is all from my part. Thank you. Thank you. Miss Irina Răileanu, we are ready for your question. Good afternoon, thank you for the presentation and for taking my questions. I hope you hear me well. My first question is regarding these changes on the regulated gas market. I mean, expected the change from regulated gas prices to some kind of administrated gas prices. How does this impact Romgaz? I understand you don't have the volumes for this year, but in general, what is the difference for a producer, let's say? Here, related to your supply segment strategy, I mean, I see you plan to expand to the supply business. Will you enter also this administrated price scheme? If you could give us more details here. Yeah. Thank you for the questions. From our analysis, the impact for the producer is, of course, going to be the 10 lei difference assigned to the regulated price. This is going to be the impact, but of course, it depends right now on the quantities that are going to be allocated, because in the past years, we had fluctuation from 55% up to 100% of our quantities on this on this ordinance. We expect for it to be published, if it's going to be published, probably next month, and we'll have the allocation of quantities in order to have a correct calculation and impact on the profitability. Regarding our supply, for us, we've started works on on integrated and creating this line business. Last year, the team from commercial, economic, IT has been working around the clock. From a technical perspective, we will be ready to be able to cover the supply for the small household consumer and non-household, probably starting from first of April. Of course, this is relative compared to the quantities that are going to be allocated, because right now, Romgaz is not a supplier to this household, so we do not have a portfolio in order for quantities to be allocated to ourselves. Probably the bulk of our quantities will be again allocated to the thermal energy producers and to the suppliers of the household. There is another ordinance, again, the Trenuleț Ordinance that was published in November, that capped our current workforce number, and also the spending that we can make, and the hiring that we can have to the levels of the end of November. We have a memorandum that is currently we have pushed it to be approved by the government, but this has not happened as such. At this point in time, we have a couple of unknowns to the supply business. Basically, you don't know exactly the quantities, does this prevent you from further trying to develop the supply business? I mean, even though if you have to deliver some of your part of your production to these heating producers and suppliers of households, does this prevent you from like, developing further your own portfolio? We will develop our portfolio. It depends on how this ordinance will be published. For our strategy for the supply business, we'll see how we'll approach probably the commercial, the small non-household commercial that will be on the free market. We will not stop developing this supply business, but we need to see exactly how we'll draw up our strategy, given the quantities that are going to be allocated, because, of course, this will impact our pricing power, because we are basing the synergies that we have from the production to the supply business and the fact that we are the producer. Basically, the entire supply, our supply business was drawn up from our own internal production. Okay. A lower share in this case will be more favorable for Romgaz? Yeah. Because you'll have a remaining larger part to support your supply business. Correct. Okay. Okay, thank you. You said you don't have contracts for households, but what was the situation on the smaller commercial or industrial clients? Do you have any discussions there or potential clients for this supply business? We do have. Even without having this typical supply and an integrated supply business, we actually did offer gas to small non-household suppliers that asked for it. Romgaz somewhat is already in the non-household, let's say, business even now. We have the FUI, and we also have 2,000 people in the FUI that are registered to Romgaz already. Basically, we have a small foothold in the supply business, but in order to make it commercial on a larger scale, we do need available quantities in order to be able to be, let's say, favorable and get a market share in this respect. Okay, thank you. Regarding Azomureș, if you can provide us some updates, if you have in a favorable, let's say, situation, any estimated CapEx, besides acquisition that you will need to allocate if the transaction concludes? What are generally the scenarios that can materialize this year regarding this acquisition? We are currently in negotiation. We are in negotiation the asset purchase agreement, with Azomureș, we have made a non-binding offer, an interval of price to them, we are expecting for them to come back. We'll see if it will conclude or not. Until then, I cannot give any details regarding CapEx or other investments. Okay, thank you. Regarding this Azomureș, there were some discussions in the press, I'm not sure if you could provide more transparency here, that you provided, or t he price was mainly the issue here, as you view, the acquisition price lower than the partner. That's why I'm asking about the scenarios. What if you don't agree on the price? What if you o r what are the possible solutions or situations or outcomes here? Well, it's the possibilities are two: We either do the acquisition or not. Of course, yeah. Of course, it is a matter of price. As I stated on Monday, we view Azomureș as a distressed asset. We view the issues that the entire petrochemical industry is having in Europe because of the high gas prices, because of the NZIA regulation, because of the CO2 pricing. Our offer was in accordance with this scenario, with the maturity of the asset. Of course, with the modeling that we've done on the asset. Romgaz has to view this acquisition also as commitment to an investment for the foreseeable future. For us, we took everything into account when we made this offer. Okay, thank you. Welcome. We have a question from Laura Simion: What is your production estimate, and what volumes will be sold in 2026 at regulated price? Our production estimate for 2026 is keeping our 2.5% decline in production in check. As you've seen for the last two years, we've been doing this actively, and we've not lowered our production, so we are hoping to keep it around the 4.9 BCM for 2026, again, with the wells that we need to put into production with the workovers that we're gonna have on our mature fields. At regulated prices, we really don't know what the allocation, what the allocation is going to be. We have the entire quantity sold for Q1, and around 47% of our production is sold to the end of 2026. It has to be somewhere in the, in the vicinity of around half of our production, probably, at a regulated price. Another question from Ms. Laura Simion: What is your estimate for 2026 power production? This is a bit complicated because for our energy business, we are looking to restart the works in the Iernut Power Plant. Right now, our old power plant is shut down. We've been having some technical issues with it, so this is going to be very, very volatile, to say so. The moment that we'll start testing in the new Iernut Power Plant, the old Iernut Power Plant would not be put into production. We had, up until two weeks ago, the plant was working at full capacity. We'll probably be trying to have it work again for a couple of months. After that, given the progress in the Iernut site, it's going to be probably stopped. The next question from Laura Simion: When will you start retail business for gas? As I said, it depends a lot on the quantities that are going to be allocated on the ordinance in 2026. Technically, we want to be ready starting, for the 1st of October, so in terms of processes and if in terms of technical capability. Ms. Simion wants to know what will happen with Trident block after LUKOIL retired. Officially, LUKOIL has not retired yet. This is mostly a question for the ANRE. The concession agreement and the exploration phase for LUKOIL end for, at end of this year. It is interesting to see if LUKOIL will divest and who will be the new investor in LUKOIL. Of course, Romgaz will work closely with any company that is trying to develop that block. We have a 12.2% stake there, so, right now, what we can do is only wait to see how these things will work out. Another question from Ms. Simion: Do you estimate that quantities that sold at regulated prices in 2026 will be more or less than 2025? For us, it's probably gonna be less because we already have quantities sold in 2025. If you take into account the Q1 quantities, which is basically at over 80%, they could be in the same vicinity of 2025. Finally, the last question from Ms. Simion: For stored quantities, will it remain the obligation to be registered at regulated prices after the first of April, 2026? Does quantities be registered? So far, we have, we do not have gas at regulated prices in our storages, storage facilities. We do not know what happens with the remainder. We have a hand raised from user ending in 85. Okay, Mr. Tamas Pletser? Yes, can you hear me? Hello? Yes. Can you hear me now? Yes. Good afternoon. I got two questions. First of all, you mentioned the LUKOIL stake in Trident block. Would Romgaz be interested to acquire LUKOIL stake? I think you suggested on your answer that you may be not interested, but I'm just curious, what is the reason that you are not interested, if you are not interested? If you are interested, please explain us why would it be interesting for you? That would be my first question. My second question would be regarding the Iernut Power Plant. Last time you said that you would finish the project by yourself, is this the case right now? Will you make the last part of this investment by yourself? Thank you. Yeah, thank you for the question. Regarding the Trident Block, from the information that we have right now, LUKOIL is also selling this asset in a complete deal with its other assets. It's not for sale separately and has not been offered for sale for Romgaz, first of all. They are looking to have a complete sale of their entire asset, this included, I cannot talk on behalf of them. The Iernut Power Plant, indeed, Romgaz will act as an EPC. Yesterday, we went into auction for the site management, which is one of the most important contracts. We have companies that have extensive expertise in offering site management in such recovery projects. For us, this is one of the most important things that a site manager needs to know, is to know how to recover such project, to, let's say, cut some corners in order to put it into production. From the companies that have made the bid for this site management, some of them have seen the site, and they are confident that the plant can be put into production by the end of 2026. We will proceed now with Mr. Oleg Galbur. Yes, hello. I hope you can hear me well. I have several follow-ups. First of all, can you please disclose the exact volume of gas sold at regulated prices in Q4 2025, and what level of realized gas price has Romgaz recorded in the last quarter of last year? Also, since we don't have yet a full report with a full disclosure, it would be very helpful if you could disclose the profit before tax by segment, I mean by upstream storage and power for the full year or last quarter of 2025. Then I have two more general questions. The first one refers to the production outlook. It is my understanding that for this year, you would rather expect a flat level of gas production. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Yeah. Otherwise, it would be also interesting to know what is your expectations longer term, let's say, for the next three years, according to your strategy, do you see the possibility to keep the production stable? Would you rather see small production declines? Putting in the longer-term perspective would be very helpful for us to understand which way you see developing. Lastly, on the upstream production costs, and here I refer to all costs, excluding taxes, windfall taxes, and royalty expenses. If I look correctly at those expenses, production costs, sorry, then I calculate a level of 320 around there thousand cubic meters for the full year of 2025, and that would imply a 22% increase year-over-year, which would be in line with the cost inflation seen by other oil and gas producers in the region. First of all, if you could confirm whether I'm not too wrong with my calculation. Second of all, it would be helpful to hear your comments about the cost development, whether you see some high cost inflations coming from labor, coming from services, coming from other angles, and whether you have a strategy in mind or already an action plan, how to contain this growth or even maybe improve your cost base. That would be my, those would be my questions. Thank you. Okay. Regarding the sales, in the fourth quarter of 2025, we sold 10.23 tera at regulated prices, at an average selling price of RON 134 per MW. In the first quarter of 2026, we expect around 10.38 tera to be sold at regulated prices at a bit higher, price around RON 137 from our estimates. Regarding the cost inflation, we do not publish necessarily our production cost. Yes, it can be computed. You are not far from the truth. We have been seeing inflationary pressures especially on the services side. Given the fact that Romgaz's mature fields need heavy investment, heavy investment in compressors, heavy investment in the well workovers, it's quite hard to keep production at this level without sizable investments. That's why we are investing in the Caragele field as well. That's why we are drilling in the Caragele field as well. We've seen inflation also stemming to the, to our contracts for drilling the rigs. Yes, we have been seeing pressures, and one way that we are trying to mitigate this is through our SIRCOSS branch. Given the fact that we do most of our well workovers with internal sources, it helps us keep these costs in check. This is why I think we've not seen such a big inflationary pressures on our production cost. We are working in digitalizing these fields. This is one of the main pillars of strategy that we are trying to implement, and we are implementing right now. We are implementing the a well production type of analysis, and this will help us in all the well workovers and also to be able to have a more clear picture on the production and what we can do to keep it at this level. Looking forward, onshore production in Romania, except for the Caragele field and the Boteni project, there aren't that much prospects that we can work on. This is why we invested in the Neptun Deep. This is why we have gone offshore, in order to be able to have this production capacity, and in order to keep gas as a transition fuel up to 2050. Our onshore is getting difficult the year after year because of our mature fields and the fact that without having these investments, we are talking around EUR 200 million each year, only in keeping production at this level, we will have a much higher decline, somewhere in the 8% region in our mature fields under operation. Thank you very much. That's extremely helpful. In other words, just to check if I understood correctly, the strategy is to continue investing in to if not maintaining, at least lowering the production decline in the next years. I'm talking about the current portfolio, onshore portfolio, not including. Yeah, yeah. The new developments. Correct. Correct. This is being kept in check through well workovers around, let's say, 6% of the, of the, let's say, counter decline of production, and from new wells, around 3%. This is how we manage to keep the production in check. We are, of course, investing in new drying station, we are investing in new compressor station, and also the deep wells that we have been drilling at Caragele in 2025. We had the deepest well ever to be drilled in Romgaz history, 5,056 meters. We are trying to open the Caragele field deep gas reservoirs in order to counter this decline in production that we have from our mature field in the northwestern Romania. That' s all, thank you. You're welcome. Miss Ioana Andrei has sent us some questions. First, a follow-up question on supply business: Do you have a target beyond the next year? Beyond next year, of course, with putting into production the Neptun Deep, and starting the complete liberalization of the price in 2027, we will keep our strategic approach in order to be the supplier, the main supplier in the years to come for the Romanian household and non-household consumer. The second question from Miss Ioana Andrei: Regarding Neptun Deep, since drilling has begun on the second perimeter, can you confirm whether the drilling results from the first perimeter validate the anticipated volumes? Yes. Please also share whether there is any deviation from initially estimated volumes? I cannot share that as of yet. Is there a regional trading strategy? Could you please share? ding strategy for the Neptun will be devised after we know what we're going to do with Azomureș and how we will approach and our estimates for the supply business and Moldova. Right now, we are more focused on delivering the Neptun Deep with OMV Petrom, the operator. We are supporting the operator in finalizing the drilling and continuing the drilling on the Domino Field. It's going to be, let's say, a year, and not necessarily, but very intensive year in terms of investment, technical, exploration there, and we are trying to be more, more concentrated on that. The third question from Miss Ioana Andrei regarding power prices: What is the estimate impact of Vertical Corridor on gas transit, especially considering the influence of LNG? We see the Vertical Corridor as a complementary source of gas, as a possibility of diversification in Europe. When the Vertical Corridor will be operationalized, it will give, let's say, a connection with the TTF, with the Henry Hub prices. For us, in this region, it will have a beneficial impact from the perspective of possibility of gas supply diversification. Regarding Caragele, what is the current status of the project? Please share something on the volumes. The current status of the project is evolving. As I said, we have drilled three deep wells in Caragele. One is in already in production. Two of them are waiting to be finalized in order to be put into production. Basically, the drilling was finalized in Caragele. Around 8% of our entire production stems from this field, and 97% of the gas condensate production comes from this field. Yes, we can expect a continuing increase in the Caragele field production. The next question we will take from Miss Daniela Mândru. Yes. Regarding the CapEx, how much did you invest up to now in Neptun Deep? Yes, this is the question first. The other one is regarding an update on Iernut. I'm not sure if I know any more when this new power plant will be commissioned. I want some clarification, please, on the issue. For the Neptun, this year we've invested around EUR 2.74 billion. We've invested around a bit less than EUR 4 billion last year. For this year, we anticipate around EUR 3.5 billion, around 70% of our entire investment in Neptun is going to be the highest CapEx here in Romgaz's history. For the Iernut Power Plant, as I said, we went into auction and procurement for the site management. There, after the site management, we are working on 58 different contracts in order to negotiate with subcontractors that have already worked in the site. We are confident that we're gonna start works in the site, starting from late March to early April. When these works will start, we'll update the markets, and we'll continue to update the investors regarding how works are going to go forward and be finalized. Romgaz is going to act as an EPC, and we are the ones that are going to do all the contracting for this power plant, but of course, with the support of a well-renowned site manager and with the support of General Electric, that is the producer of the equipment in the site. Yes, here, some more clarification. I've read in the newspapers, so I don't know if it is true or not. Regarding the grant, for this Iernut plant, I read that if you don't commission, the plant by 26 June you will be forced to reimburse the grant. This is true? It's always been like that. It has been prolonged, but it's 31st of December, 2026. 36. now it's prolonged to the end of 2026? In December 2025, it has been prolonged up to the 31st of December, 2026. Okay. We have almost a full year in order to finalize and put it into production, but the parameters, it should work. Just to conclude, for now, if you don't know exactly when this plant will start producing power? We need to have everyone back in the site. We need to have General Electric and the subcontractors in the site, and we need to have the site manager to see if we can put it into production as soon as possible. For us, it's very important to start the tests as soon as possible, and to be able to put it into commercial production by the end of this year. Of course, it has a number of factors that it depends. Okay, thank you. The finally, questions from the user with the number ending in 85. Could you please unmute your microphone? Mr. Oleg Galbur? Yes, thank you for the opportunity to ask a follow-up question. I wanted to ask about dividends. I know what you've been communicating in the recent past, that before the start of production at Neptun, you don't see dividend levels coming to the historical of about 50%. Still, for last year, for 2025, a year with quite good results, how should we think about the dividend payout? Would you see it staying at the previous 2 years' levels, or do you still see room for some increases? Any comments on this matter would be very helpful. Thank you. Thank you. Given the fact that we've prioritized the Neptun Deep project, and given the fact that 2026 is the highest CapEx, intensive CapEx years from this company's history, we would like to have a balanced approach of the dividend payout. In our opinion, the dividend payout has to take into consideration the fact that we still have some long way to go until the Neptun Deep will be put into production. We keep our estimates that just after when Neptun Deep will be put into production, the dividend payout will somewhat so again, will be raised to, let's say, more historical standards. Understood. Thank you. Are there any further questions? If there are no further questions, we would like to conclude today's conference call. For any additional information, please contact our investor relations team, and on behalf of Romgaz, thank you for joining us today.
