Reserve Highlights
The reserve report was prepared by Gustavson Associates in full accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 51-101, Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities of the Canadian Securities Administrators. The Company's 2014 Annual Information Form dated March 31, 2015 includes more detailed disclosure and reports relating to petroleum and natural gas activities for 2014. Both oil and gas reserves are based on availability of sufficient funding to allow development of the known accumulations. The estimated value (NPV10) of the reserves does not represent fair market value.
Executive Chairman's Message
John Bell, Executive Chairman said: "Since I became Executive Chairman at the end of November last year, we have made significant progress across all aspects of the business, to better manage the business in the challenging oil price environment. We have outlined a new strategy focused on delivering cash flows and value from our existing discovered reserves and material upside from within our portfolio, whilst exercising capital discipline. We have announced a halving of the Company's G&A, cost cuttings which are on track, and we have doubled gas production and increased prices for the quarter. Based on this we believe Tethys is well placed to respond and adapt to the changing market environment."
Filing Details
The full Annual Results together with Management's Discussion and Analysis and Annual Information Form have been filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities.

Cautionary Statements
This press release contains "forward-looking information" which may include, but is not limited to, statements with respect to our operations, completion of the sale of an interest to SinoHan and prospective resource estimates. Such forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including the risk that approvals for the sale to SinoHan will be delayed and the risk that any or all of the prospective will not become recoverable. See our Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2014 for a description of risks and uncertainties relevant to our business, including our exploration activities.
The resource estimates contained or referred to are estimates only and are not meant to provide a determination as to the volume or value of hydrocarbons attributable to the Klymene prospect. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of resources and cash flows that may be derived, including many factors that are beyond the control of the Company. The following is a non-exhaustive list of factors which may have a significant impact on the above estimates of prospective resources: despite the classification that they are as yet undiscovered but may be potentially recoverable the Company may be unable to carry out the development or their potential recovery; the activity may not be economically viable; the Company may not have sufficient capital or time to develop them; there may be no market or transportation routes for the potential production; legal, contractual, environmental and governmental concerns might not allow for the recovery being undertaken; reservoir characteristics might prevent recovery. The recovery of the resources is subject to the following risks and uncertainties: market fluctuations, the proximity and capacity of oil and gas pipelines and processing equipment, government regulation, political issues, export issues, competing suppliers, operational issues (exploration, production, pricing, marketing and transportation), extensive controls and regulations imposed by various levels of government, lack of capital or income, the ability to drill productive wells at acceptable costs, the uncertainty of drilling operations, factors such as delays, accidents, adverse weather conditions, and the availability of drilling rigs and the delivery of equipment. See our 2014 Annual Information Form dated March 31, 2015 of a description of significant positive and negative factors relevant to the resource estimates in the press release and of the contingencies which prevent the classification of the resources as reserves.
A barrel of oil equivalent ("boe") conversion ratio of 6,000 cubic feet (169.9 cubic metres) of natural gas = 1 barrel of oil has been used and is based on the standard energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead.
