Each one in plain English, with the numbers worked through for a shareholder.

Post-completion, work has begun on the Phase I development plan and Phase II subsurface analysis, with service contracts still to be awarded. Resource figures repeat known numbers (354 Bcf 2C total, 217 Bcf Phase I). No new results.
Ansila lodges its new constitution, adopted by shareholders at the 29 January 2021 AGM. Standard governance document; no new operational or financial information in the text seen.
ASX lifts the suspension from the start of trading on 3 February 2021, following Ansila's acquisition announcement. Ends the suspension in place since 7 September 2020.
Ansila completes the Hartshead acquisition after shareholder approval, issuing 1,000,000,000 shares to vendors (12-month escrow), and raises an oversubscribed A$8.0m placement at A$0.025 (A$1.0m above plan). The A$7.0m funds Phase I work through to the preliminary FDP. Trading resumes today.
Cleansing prospectus for up to 1,000 shares at $0.025, issued only so the acquisition consideration, placement and adviser shares can be traded freely. It raises no meaningful money; offer closes 3 February.
UK regulator confirms Seaward Licence P2607 over the five Southern North Sea blocks is executed and live. Ansila then held 21.6% of Hartshead; this finalises the provisional award of September 2020 that underpins the pending acquisition vote on 29 January.
December 2020 presentation repeats the 14 December Hartshead acquisition: 354 Bcf 2C contingent resources, 141 Bcf prospective resources, and Ansila's existing 21.6% stake. No new information.
Ansila agreed to buy the remaining 78.4% of Hartshead Resources in an all-share deal subject to shareholder approval, alongside a A$7.0m placement. The licence holds four discoveries totalling 354 Bcf of 2C contingent resources, and Lewis and Matharu are to become CEO and CFO.
Hartshead (21.6% Ansila) received the UK regulator's data verification letter for a single licence over the five blocks: 5-year initial term, 2-year second term, 18-year production term. Formal award follows, with provisional start 1 December 2020.
Corporate governance statement and Appendix 4G for FY2020, describing board practices against ASX principles. Administrative, with no new operational or financial information.
Annual report for the year to 30 June 2020. The visible text repeats the Siciny-2 result (0.001 mD permeability, water blocking gas flow) and the shift to conventional Rotliegendes gas at Gora; financial figures are not in the excerpt.
Ansila asks for a further extension of the voluntary suspension, now until the capital raising and material investment announcement is released, with no end date. Administrative.
Ansila asks to extend its voluntary suspension to 21 September, still pending an announcement on a potential capital raising and material investment, after ASX reviews its submissions. Administrative.
At Ansila's request, ASX suspended its shares from 7 September pending an announcement on a potential capital raising and material investment, following the 3 September pause. Requested to last until the announcement or 14 September.
The UK regulator provisionally awarded Hartshead Resources Ltd, in which Ansila holds 21.6%, five contiguous Southern North Sea blocks from the 32nd round. This resolves the pending application; the blocks hold undeveloped gas resources and drill-ready prospects.
Responding to an ASX query after the share price rose from $0.02 to an intraday $0.033, Ansila says it knows of no undisclosed information. It notes its UK private holding Hartshead Resources Ltd awaits a decision on seven North Sea blocks.
After a virtual OCM, the operator listed options for the Carboniferous gas but flagged material cost and high risk, and said its economics would need revisiting. Focus is conventional Rotliegendes: a Siciny-2 re-entry could start by end-2020, and four new prospects were identified. Licence conversion is delayed by COVID-19.
Responding to an ASX price query after the share price rose from $0.008 to $0.013, Ansila says it knows of no undisclosed information. It notes Hartshead Resources Ltd, the UK private entity it holds, applied for seven North Sea blocks and awaits a decision.
Operator analysis of Siciny-2 finds average permeability of 0.001 mD, well below the 0.026 mD from the 2013 mini-frac, and mobile water blocked natural gas flow. Further unconventional attempts would need a new or horizontal well. Focus shifts to conventional Rotliegendes gas; the 1.6 Tcf resource stays unproven.

Ansila withdraws from the Nowa Sol concession and the A$2.241m Jany-C1 programme, so its proposed 35% reverts to Gemini. The company cites COVID-19 turmoil, weaker oil and investor aversion to unconventional risk, and says it will preserve cash. Only Gora remains in Poland.
Half-year to 31 Dec 2019: net loss $8,021,506 (prior period $1,306,893). Cash fell to $2,697,981 from $5,794,861 at June 2019; net assets $2,875,378 versus $6,318,290. Operational content repeats earlier Siciny-2 and Gora updates.
The Siciny-2 long-term pressure build-up test is finished and gauges recovered, ending field operations. Data analysis now decides next steps at Gora. An OCM is planned for late Q1 or early Q2 2020; Jany-C1 is still said to be Q2 2020.
February 2020 presentation repeats known facts: Siciny-2 (1.6 Tcf 2C contingent) pressure test underway, 209 Bcf conventional Gora prospects, Jany-C1 appraisal in Q2 2020 and new ventures. Notes two UK 32nd Round applications via a private North Sea vehicle.
Corporate update: Siciny-2 pressure build-up test runs to February, with analysis to set next steps. Company turns attention to conventional Rotliegendes gas at Gora (210 Bcf prospective) and a new-ventures strategy; Jany-C1 stays Q2 2020, with a Nowa Sol production licence expected by end Q1.
Siciny-2 showed methane at surface, but formation water inflow stopped free gas flowing, so the planned flow tests were dropped for a long-term pressure build-up test ending in February. No gas rate was reported, so commerciality of the 1.6 Tcf resource remains unproven; the company says the work was on time and on budget.
Siciny-2 is still flowing fluid rather than gas: 373 m3 of the 850 m3 of frac fluid has come back, and nitrogen is being used to help. Flow tests slip from December into January-February 2020.
Frac fluid flowed back through casing with very little proppant returned, which the company says shows proppant stayed in the fracture. Production tubing is to be run after a 24-26 December shutdown, so the well test slips toward year-end or later.
