AleAnna and its partner Societa Padana Energia have recorded more than 6 weeks of continuous production history at the Longanesi Field, with steadily growing daily rates.
Results have been above expectations, with a stabilized natural gas production rate of approximately 28 MM cubic feet per day, which was achieved well ahead of the anticipated 3-month timeline for this milestone.
Strong natural gas prices in Italy, averaging about $13.50 / Mcf over the last 6 weeks, are providing AleAnna > $100,000 / day in revenues.
The European Union's (EU) stated goal of eliminating Russian natural gas imports by year-end 2027 should create a longer-term demand for domestic natural gas in Italy.

DALLAS and ROME, July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AleAnna, Inc. ("AleAnna" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:ANNA) is pleased to announce strong early performance from the Longanesi Field. All five wells in the Phase 1 development are contributing to current daily production averaging 28 million cubic feet per day, which was AleAnna's budgeted maximum rate for 2025. While striving to prevent damage to the reservoirs from early over-production, the impressive growth rate in daily production over the first 6 full weeks of production nonetheless signals potential for the Phase 1 development to outperform initial expectations.

Combined with average Italian natural gas prices over this 6-week period of about $13.50 per thousand cubic feet, current production is generating in excess of $100,000 in revenue per day net to AleAnna's account. In addition, the Company expects further expansions of reserves and additional increases in daily production, highlighting Longanesi's importance as a driver of mid-to-longer term growth for AleAnna.

Advantaged Natural Gas Environment in the EU

About 20% of the EU's natural gas supply continues to come from Russia. As part of a broader plan to improve energy security and independence, the EU has stated an overarching goal to completely eliminate Russian natural gas supply by year-end 2027. The need to replace this supply, combined with gas storage levels at 34% of capacity, has created an increased demand for new sources of domestic natural gas and a near-to-mid-term increase in the price of natural gas in the EU.

AleAnna is committed to strengthening Italy's long-term energy security while supporting the global transition to cleaner and more sustainable sources of energy. By advancing current and future investments at Longanesi, AleAnna aims to address the gap in natural gas supply left by the loss of Russian natural gas imports.

Management Commentary

Marco Brun, Chief Executive Officer of AleAnna, emphasized the importance of the positive early results from Longanesi, stating: "Strong early results from Longanesi are a signal of AleAnna's growth potential and profitability. With an advantaged environment for natural gas producers in the EU, and the opportunity to further grow our Longanesi production, we are excited about the future of the Company."
