NEWPORT RECEIVES AUD$635,069 (GROSS)/AUD$444,550 (NET) QUARTERLY ROYALTY PAYMENT

Newport Exploration Ltd has reported receipt of its quarterly royalty payment from Beach Energy Ltd for the February-April 2025 period, totaling AUD$635,069 in gross royalty income. The company received AUD$444,550 net after taxes, representing proceeds from its 2.5% Gross Overriding Royalty interest.

The payment structure indicates Newport maintains a passive income stream from energy production activities operated by Beach Energy, an established Australian energy producer. The quarterly payment cycle provides Newport with regular cash flow from its royalty portfolio without the operational risks and capital requirements associated with direct energy production.

For Newport shareholders, this royalty income represents a predictable revenue source that can fund ongoing exploration activities or corporate operations. The consistent quarterly payments from Beach Energy demonstrate the value of royalty interests in established energy production assets, particularly as energy commodity prices remain supportive of production economics.
