Good News from Macys Blog16 Mar 2019 11:09
JSE must be one of the forgotten O&G gems-maybe not meteoric rises but steady as she goes based on great management, increasing positive cashflows, sound investment and aquisition strategy and low risk. I am now a convert having been to the LSE seminar this week-very impressed-so it seems is Macy as per his blogs

I ran out of time yesterday but wanted a very quick word on Jadestone after two recent announcements. Yesterday they announced that Montara production is likely to stabilise at around 10,000 b/d (2018 7,615 b/d) and with maintenance fully up to date ‘an increase in uptime and average production rates is expected in 2019’. With no further maintenance required before the end of 2020 things are set up nicely for JSE for the foreseeable future.
I have had a number of questions about the increasing holding of Tyrus Capital on the shareholder register at Jadestone which recently went above the 25% level. I am told on good authority that not only are Tyrus friendly and supportive but have held a large position in the company for many years, indeed the recent addition was an ‘opportunistic’ one as they cleared a line of stock up in the Toronto market. With a lock up in place since the admission over here I don’t see them bidding for Jadestone any time soon.

Jadestone has given the market some guidance this morning and expect 13,500-15,500 b/d this year with a longer term forecast of 30,000 b/d by 2023. Average unit production costs are $21-24 and the company expects capex this year to be in the range $116-131m. With operatorship of Montara expected in Q2 2019 the company is progressing faster than I had imagined although management is impressive and highly experienced.
They say that they are making ‘good progress’ in Vietnam and expect sanction of the project this year. So much has changed with this company in the last year it is hard to keep up but the acquisition was an absolute peach and already paying out in spades, this company is without doubt going places.
