Recent Company History
Over the past month, GLND moved from its Nasdaq debut and Arctic exploration messaging toward financing and execution. The company highlighted Jameson Land Basin prospects and 2026 drilling plans in multiple editorials on April 8, 9, and 13, yet shares sold off after each. A Halliburton services agreement on April 27 also preceded a decline. The $70M public offering priced at $4.00 triggered the steepest drop, framing today’s editorial within a pattern of equity issuance and exploration promotion.
This announcement reinforces Greenland Energy’s Arctic-focused strategy, emphasizing plans to drill two wells in Greenland’s Jameson Land Basin and the potential for up to 13 billion barrels of oil with a targeted 70% working interest. It follows recent regulatory filings detailing equity offerings to fund exploration. Investors may track progress toward the 2026 drilling campaign, execution of the Halliburton support agreement, deployment of the roughly $70M in proceeds, and how future updates alter perceptions of resource potential and capital needs.

financial
“the company anticipates earning up to a 70% working interest and its estimated”
The working interest is the percentage ownership one party holds in an oil or gas lease that gives them the right to a share of production and also the obligation to pay a proportional share of exploration, development and operating costs. Think of it like owning a slice of a cake but also agreeing to pay part of the bill to bake it: a larger working interest means bigger potential revenue when wells produce, but also larger exposure to costs and liabilities if things go wrong.

Global energy markets are once again confronting a familiar vulnerability. Rising instability in the Middle East and renewed concerns surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, a shipping corridor that handles roughly 20% of global petroleum liquids consumption, have intensified calls for the United States and Europe to strengthen long-term energy independence. As governments and industries reassess the risks tied to overseas supply disruptions, attention is increasingly turning toward politically aligned regions capable of delivering substantial new energy resources.
Against this backdrop, Greenland Energy Company is advancing an Arctic exploration strategy centered on Greenland’s Jameson Land Basin where, after drilling two targeted wells later this year, the company anticipates earning up to a 70% working interest and its estimated potential of up to 13 billion barrels of oil. The company recently strengthened that strategy through a newly announced agreement with Halliburton Company for integrated consulting, drilling and logistical support tied to its 2026 exploration campaign.

Forward-Looking Statements
This communication contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements contained herein other than statements of present or historical fact, including, without limitation, statements regarding Greenland Energy Company’s (the “Company”) future financial performance, business strategy, operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans, objectives of management, and expected benefits of the Company’s recent business combination, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are generally identified by the use of words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “potential,” “predict,” or the negative of these terms or similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words.
These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations, assumptions and beliefs regarding future events and are based on information currently available to the Company. These statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are beyond the Company’s control, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, among others: (i) Exploration and Geological Risks, including the Company’s status as a development-stage company with no operating history, revenues, or proved reserves; the inherent uncertainty in prospective resource estimates, including that the 13 billion barrel estimate is based on undiscovered accumulations with no certainty of discovery or commercial viability; geological complexity arising from limited seismic data coverage, pervasive igneous intrusions, faulting patterns, and significant Tertiary uplift creating thermal maturity uncertainty; the fact that the basin has never produced a commercial discovery despite decades of study dating back to the 1970s, and a 2008 USGS report stating less than a 10% chance of containing a technically recoverable hydrocarbon accumulation; and high-cost frontier exploration with estimated well costs of $40 million for the first well and $20 million for subsequent wells; (ii) Operational and Environmental Risks, including the challenges of operating in a remote Arctic location with extreme climate, harsh weather, limited daylight, no existing infrastructure, and seasonal access windows for equipment and personnel; drilling hazards such as blowouts, equipment failures, well control events, environmental releases, and accidents inherent in oil and gas operations; reliance on third-party contractors; and climate change scrutiny, as operations in Greenland face increasing opposition from environmental groups and institutional investors due to Arctic drilling concerns; (iii) Regulatory and Political Risks, including the 2021 Greenland drilling moratorium, and while licenses are grandfathered, future regulatory changes could jeopardize operations; geopolitical tensions, including U.S. interest in acquiring Greenland and Greenland’s internal independence movements that could affect operations; permit requirements, as drilling requires Environmental Impact Assessment approval and Field Activities Application approval from Greenlandic authorities; and forfeiture risk, as failure to meet drilling milestones could result in loss of the Company’s right to earn working interests; (iv) Financial and Capital Risks, including significant capital requirements and the need for substantial funding beyond current resources to complete the drilling program; commodity price volatility, as oil, gas, and NGL prices are highly volatile and will heavily influence project viability; a long development timeline during which market conditions may change significantly before potential production, unlike short-cycle shale projects; going concern uncertainty and substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern without additional financing; and energy transition risk, as global demand for oil may decline due to electric vehicle adoption, renewable energy policies, and changing consumer preferences; and other risks and uncertainties as set forth in the Company’s Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act on April 29, 2026, in the section titled “Risk Factors”.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
