Quarterly Cash Receipts and Production

CUE reported quarterly cash receipts of A$17.5 million, up 29%, with its cash balance rising by A$2.4 million to A$18.1 million. Total quarterly production was 121.5 thousand barrels of oil equivalent across its portfolio.

 

Oil Prices

The company said Brent averaged approximately US$96 per barrel during the September quarter, and about US$125 per barrel in the first three weeks of October. CUE said these prices support Revenue from its Brent-linked oil production.

 

Mahato Development

At the Mahato development, two oil development wells and three workovers have been completed. Well PB-42 delivered initial production of 520 barrels of oil per day on a 100% basis, which CUE said exceeded pre-drill expectations. Approvals for Phase 3 development are nearing completion.

 

Palm Valley Gas Drilling

Palm Valley well PV14 came online on 23 October and is producing 0.5 terajoules per day, while drilling of well PV15 began on 18 October. The company said the program supports long-term contracted gas Supply to the Northern Territory Government through to 2034.

 

Shareholder Returns

The sixth consecutive dividend was paid in October, bringing cumulative cash returns to shareholders to A$35 million since 2024, the company said.

 

Sector Context

Oil and gas producers are sensitive to the price of Brent crude, and their results can move quickly as oil prices change. Smaller producers with contracted gas supply and development programs are often assessed on production growth, cash generation and their ability to keep paying dividends.

 

Key Risks

CUE’s revenue depends heavily on oil prices, which have been volatile, and a fall in Brent could reduce cash receipts. Development timelines at Mahato and Palm Valley can shift, and the initial production from PB-42 is an early reading that may change. Gas supply contracts also carry delivery and regulatory obligations.

 

What to Watch Ahead

Investors will be watching the Phase 3 development approvals at Mahato, the ongoing drilling at Palm Valley and the next dividend decision. The company’s next quarterly report will show how production and cash receipts track.

 

Final Word

CUE Energy’s trading session on 11 November 2026 followed a quarter in which cash receipts, production and dividends all moved higher. The next quarter will show whether those trends continue with the Mahato and Palm Valley programs.
