AleAnna ANNA

AleAnna, Inc. is a natural gas resource company that focuses on delivering critical natural gas supplies to Europe through onshore conventional natural gas exploration and development and renewable natural gas development in Italy. The firm holds a 33.5 percent working interest in the Longanesi field located in the Po Valley of northern Italy and retains wholly owned concessions and permits for additional prospects such as Gradizza and Trava. Over the past fifteen years AleAnna has invested roughly two hundred fifty million dollars in the acquisition and early development of its properties building a portfolio that includes proved recoverable natural gas reserves of approximately twenty five point eight billion cubic feet as certified by DeGolyer & MacNaughton. In parallel the company has launched a renewable natural gas business that acquires anaerobic digester facilities and upgrades them to produce biomethane from animal and agricultural waste with the aim of supplying carbon negative gas to the European market.

AleAnna generates revenue primarily from the sale of natural gas produced from its Longanesi field and from the sale of electricity generated by its renewable gas assets. Under a gas sale agreement with Shell Energy Europe Limited the company receives proceeds for its share of Longanesi output net of transport treatment compression losses royalties and other contractual allocations. The agreement became effective on October 29 2024 and contemplates future sales contingent upon the commencement of gas production which began in March 2025. While its renewable anaerobic digester sites are being upgraded to biomethane production they continue to generate electricity that is sold to the local state owned utility Gestore dei Servizi Energetici SpA. As of December 31 2025 the company reported approximately twenty two point four million dollars of revenue from natural gas sales and two point seven million dollars of revenue from electricity sales reflecting the early stage of its renewable portfolio and the ramp up of conventional production.

The company operates through the following segments.

• Conventional Natural Gas Business This segment engages in the exploration development and production of onshore natural gas in Italy. AleAnna holds a 33.5 percent working interest in the Longanesi field which is one of Italy’s largest modern natural gas discoveries and works with partner Padana as operator. The segment also includes wholly owned concessions for the Gradizza and Trava fields and a portfolio of thirteen development prospects supported by proprietary 3D seismic surveys. Revenue is derived from sales of natural gas under a long term agreement with Shell Energy Europe Limited. The company began recognizing revenue from Longanesi production in the second quarter of 2025 after first production was achieved in March 2025. Current operations involve the use of a temporary processing facility while a permanent plant is under construction with completion expected in early 2027. The Longanesi field benefits from high quality reservoirs low combined federal and regional royalty rates of ten percent and proximity to the Snam pipeline network which provides access to industrial power generation and residential customers across Italy and the southern EU. The segment’s proved developed reserves totaled twenty three thousand four hundred sixty one million cubic feet at year end 2025 reflecting the startup of the first five wells.
• Renewable Natural Gas Business This segment focuses on acquiring anaerobic digester facilities and converting them to biomethane production facilities in Italy. AleAnna has completed strategic acquisitions of greenfield and brownfield plants in Tuscany and Lombardy with an aggregate investment of approximately nine point zero million euros or nine point eight million dollars. The acquired sites include a greenfield project in Campagnatico and two brownfield projects at Casalino and Campopiano which are currently permitted for electricity generation. While the assets await upgrading to biomethane they continue to generate electricity that is sold to the local state owned utility Gestore dei Servizi Energetici SpA. The company plans to install off the shelf biogas upgrading units at each site to convert raw biogas into pipeline quality biomethane. Once upgraded the renewable natural gas will be injected into the Snam transmission system for sale to utilities industrial users and other market participants. The segment benefits from Italy’s fifteen year guaranteed biomethane floor price of approximately thirty nine point three dollars per thousand cubic feet and from a capital expenditure reimbursement program that covers up to forty percent of eligible investment costs. AleAnna maintains a substantial backlog of additional anaerobic digester targets that it intends to acquire and develop over the coming years.

AleAnna occupies a niche position in the Italian upstream sector where the number of licensed exploration and production operators is relatively small. In the conventional natural gas arena the company competes with firms such as Energean PLC Società Padana Energia Po Valley Energy and Pengas Italiana Srl while major integrated players like Shell and Total focus on legacy fields rather than new exploration. AleAnna’s competitive advantages stem from its experienced management team whose combined experience exceeds one hundred years its use of proprietary 3D seismic and direct hydrocarbon indicators to improve drilling success its low cost onshore operations and its proximity to the extensive Snam pipeline network which reduces transportation expenses. In addition the company benefits from a favorable royalty regime that imposes a combined federal and regional rate of only ten percent on onshore gas production. In the renewable natural gas space the market remains fragmented with few full owner operators; Eni and Snam have previously pursued anaerobic digester acquisitions but have since scaled back their involvement while private equity groups and asset management firms are active participants. AleAnna benefits from its dual focus on conventional and renewable gas which creates regional overlap in the Po Valley its status as a licensed Italian exploration and production operator and its ability to secure feedstock agreements with local farms. Furthermore the Italian government’s long term biomethane price floor and capital subsidies provide a supportive regulatory backdrop that mitigates pricing risk and encourages project development. The company’s access to proprietary seismic data and its track record of successful well drilling further differentiate it from peers that rely on third party surveys.

The company’s primary customer for its conventional natural gas production is Shell Energy Europe Limited which purchases the net output from the Longanesi field under an exclusive gas sale agreement. In addition AleAnna expects to supply industrial power generation and residential customers throughout Italy and the southern European Union via the Snam transmission system once its gas is delivered to the pipeline. For its renewable natural gas assets the current electricity off taker is the state owned utility Gestore dei Servizi Energetici SpA which purchases the power generated by the anaerobic digesters while they are being upgraded to biomethane facilities. Future biomethane sales are anticipated to be made to utilities industrial users and other market participants that access the Snam network. The company also maintains relationships with other Italian energy traders and logistics providers that could facilitate the movement of its gas to end users across the continent. These commercial arrangements are designed to ensure that AleAnna’s production reaches a diversified base of consumers while preserving flexibility to adapt to evolving market conditions.
