Established company with strong financials
The emission proceeds are to be used primarily to refinance the existing bond. To the extent that the proceeds of the offer are not or not immediately needed for this purpose, they are to be used in the course of ongoing business operations in the USA. Deutsche Rohstoff has been active in the oil & gas business in the USA for more than ten years and produced 10,500 barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOEPD) in the first half of 2023. In the second half of the year, another significant increase in production is forecasted, so that an average daily production of 11,000 to 12,000 BOEPD is expected for the full year. With four subsidiaries in three states in the USA, Deutsche Rohstoff produces oil & gas from over 300 wells. This means that the company now has a very broad and diversified production base and a very profitable operating business.

Since the issue of the 2019/2024 bond, Deutsche Rohstoff AG has grown significantly. EBITDA increased to EUR 139.1 million in fiscal 2022, up about 500% since 2019, when EBITDA was EUR 22.7 million. Revenue also increased to EUR 165.4 million in 2022 compared to EUR 41.2 million in 2019.

This development trend continues in the first half of 2023, where record revenues of EUR 75.2 million and EBITDA of EUR 56.0 million have already been generated. Alongside this very positive development, all key figures on debt have improved massively since 2019. The net debt to EBITDA ratio was 0.4 in 2022 compared to 3.2 in the year of the last bond issue in 2019.


High reserves provide security
Deutsche Rohstoff Group publishes reserve reports from well-known reserve auditors on an annual basis. As of 31 December 2022, Deutsche Rohstoff Group's proved oil reserves amounted to 36.4 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE), resulting in further revenue potential of USD 1.79 billion (EUR 1.64 billion) and expected cash flow of USD 724 million (EUR 664 million).

For 2023, the company expects sales of EUR 150 million to EUR 170 million and EBITDA of EUR 115 million to EUR 130 million. In 2024, sales are expected to increase to EUR 170 to 190 million and EBITDA to EUR 130 to 145 million. This forecast is based on an oil price assumption of USD 75 per barrel of WTI, an exchange rate assumption of EUR 1.12/USD and a Henry Hub natural gas price assumption of USD 3/1,000 cubic feet.


Global oil demand continues to rise
Deutsche Rohstoff expects the demand for oil to continue growth in the coming years. Currently, nearly 102 million barrels of oil are consumed worldwide every day. According to estimates by the International Energy Agency, demand will continue to rise in the coming years, even though other energy sources such as renewables will gain significantly in importance. The reasons for the increase are rising demand in the emerging countries and the growing world population.


The new bond 2023/2028 of Deutsche Rohstoff AG is expected to be traded on the Open Market (Quotation Board) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange from 27 September 2023. The issue is being accompanied by ICF BANK AG Wertpapierhandelsbank, Frankfurt am Main as Sole Lead Manager and by Kepler Cheuvreux, Paris, Clarksons Securities, Oslo, Bankhaus Scheich, Frankfurt am Main as well as CapSolutions, Munich as Selling Agents. The securities prospectus has been approved by the CSSF today and is now available on the Company's website (www.rohstoff.de/anleihe).
