Highlights in the period

Interoil's total operated production for the first nine months of 2024 was
551,140 barrels of oil equivalent (boe), a decrease from 698,659 boe in the same
period of 2023. Operations in 2024 were impacted by downhole equipment failure
at the Vikingo well and harsh winter conditions in Argentina. These challenges
resulted in revenues of USD 13.5 million, down from USD 16.4 million in the
prior year.

In July, at the Company's request, bondholders approved amendments to the bond
terms to settle the full July 2024 interest payment in kind by issuing and
delivering additional bonds.

In August Interoil Colombia Exploration and Production ("ICEP") reached an
agreement with the Colombian National Hydrocarbons Agency -Agencia Nacional de
Hidrocarburos- (the "ANH") for a partial termination of the Exploration and
Production contract between ICEP and the ANH over the LLA-47 block. As part of
the agreement, the provisions related to exploration activities will be
terminated with no penalties, and the exploration area shall be returned to the
ANH. However, ICEP will continue production from the Vikingo well, for the
remainder of its economic life.

In August, Interoil issued a correction to its Q2 and H1 financial reports due
to an unintentional error in the Q1 figures. As a result, Finanstilsynet and
Oslo Børs ("OSE") initiated formal investigations. The company has provided
responses to the inquiries received in connection with these proceedings, and a
final decision is still pending.

In September the Company appointed Mr. Pablo Creta as new Chief Financial
Officer (CFO). Mr. Creta served as both General Manager and CFO of the Company
from 2017 to 2020.
