CFO Appointment
Eco's long-standing CFO Alan Rootenberg has announced his retirement, having worked with the Company since 2011. The Company would like to thank Alan for his efforts during his time at Eco and wishes him well in his retirement.
Eco is pleased to announce the appointment of Gadi Levin as CFO effective 2 September 2025. Gadi is a chartered accountant with over 20 years' of experience in both public and private equity markets. He has been a long-standing member of Eco's finance team, having previously held the role of Finance Director since 2016, working closely with Eco's executive team in support of the effective financial management of the Company.
Gil Holzman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eco Atlantic, commented:
'Eco has continued to make progress across its portfolio and operations in the three months to 30 June 2025. During the period, the Company received the Governmental Title Award and the Exploration Right and Operatorship for Block 1, offshore South Africa, where Eco now holds a 75% interest. The Orange Basin remains one of the most exciting offshore postcodes in the world with Eco's acreage strategically located at its heart. In Namibia, we continue to progress the license work programs and farm out discussions.
In Guyana, we have continued to hold positive discussions with a number of prospective partners where we are working hard to realise the potential of the Orinduik block.
I am also pleased to announce the appointment of Gadi Levin as our CFO following the retirement of Alan Rootenberg. Gadi has been a key member of Eco's finance team for many years and I look forward to continuing to work closely with him. I would also like to thank Alan for all his hard work at Eco over the years and wish him all the best in his well-deserved retirement.
As we look forward to the rest of 2025, Eco is in a strong position with a number of potential catalysts to create real value for the Company and its stakeholders. We look forward to being able to provide further updates as we advance our various assets, ongoing workstreams, and projects.'
