Exhibit 99.1
AleAnna, Inc. Announces Receipt of Production
Concession for its Gradizza Field Development,
and Upcoming Revisions to its Reserves and Prospective Resources Reports
This Milestone Represents the Final Approval
Required Prior to First Production at
Gradizza field, AleAnna’s First Fully-Owned and Operated Property
| ● | The Italian Ministry of Environment and Energy Security (MASE) has awarded AleAnna a formal Production Concession for the Gradizza Field. |
| ● | The Production Concession allows an initial 20-year production period and enables AleAnna to commence production shortly after submission and approval of a 12-month seismic and subsidence monitoring study, which AleAnna has already begun. |
| ● | AleAnna expects to shortly receive revisions of its Reserves and Prospect Resources reports from DeGolyer and MacNaughton (“D&M”), following completion of an extensive study identifying new reservoirs and previously unrecognized opportunities on its advantaged onshore Po Valley concessions, licenses and application. |
Dallas, TX and Milan, IT - January 20, 2026 - AleAnna, Inc. (“AleAnna” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ANNA) is pleased to announce the receipt of a Production Concession (the “Concession”) for the Gradizza Field, with the Italian Ministry of Environment and Energy Security (MASE) granting their approval for production from the Gradizza Field. Receipt of the Concession is the next step in the Company’s journey to becoming a leading provider of sustainable natural gas in Europe and is AleAnna’s first fully owned and operated development.
Gradizza Field, located in the Province of Ferrara near Tresignana and Copparo (AleAnna working interest 100%), is a core production asset. AleAnna plans to develop the field using a single well and compact processing facility with a short-distance pipeline tie-in to the SNAM gas transmission system. Initial production is targeted for the first quarter of 2027.

This milestone underscores AleAnna’s ability to work proactively and constructively with National, Regional, and Community authorities to achieve support for development of important new sources of domestic natural gas, and the Company believes that the shortened timeframe for approval of the Concession signals Italy’s renewed commitment for development of its domestic reserves.
Revisions to Reserves and Prospective Resources Reports
While evaluating early reservoir performance at Longanesi field AleAnna’s technical experts also completed significant updates to its reservoir and resource evaluation models across the Po Valley. Preliminary results indicate the presence of additional, previously unevaluated pays in the Longanesi, Trava, and Gradizza fields and suggest similar potential elsewhere in the Po Valley basin. In consequence, AleAnna engaged D&M to conduct an independent reservoir analysis using advanced log interpretation techniques, and to update its Reserves Report using Longanesi production data and the new reservoir analysis. Aleanna expects to publish this report in Q1 2026.
Evidence of new pays in the Po Valley Basin, combined with AleAnna’s success working with MASE and Regional authorities to advance Gradizza to the development phase, has encouraged management that both the magnitude and economic potential of the Company’s Exploration Resource portfolio can be expected to increase. On completion of the D&M independent analysis of its Prospective Resources in the Po Valley, and its Reserves Resource report, Aleanna will be renewing its Resource development plan and expects to then publish a relevant update once completed.
Management Commentary
Marco Brun, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “Receipt of the Gradizza Production concession is strong validation of AleAnna’s success in bringing new sources of natural gas to Italy. AleAnna has worked tirelessly to engage constructively with national, regional, and community stakeholders to advance projects that contribute to Italy’s energy independence and support Europe’s broader energy transition goals. Gradizza represents a major step forward for the company as our first fully owned and operated development”.
