Interview thoughts25 Jul 2022 09:37
Firstly, no point moaning as there is nothing we can do about this latest sh*tshow. If you are still holding (sadly I am), we have try to find positives.
As Tilburn said himself, it is looking like we have burnt through $21m since Dec raise. Sure, we have some unhedged oil to sell now but not enough to generate FCF. So, we need the finance to keep the lights on and to try and sort Art's plumbing out. This has needed sorting for months now and we still don't have the steel pipes that he mentioned in Q1. I can only assume we couldn't afford them.
A couple of other concerning items in the interview. Firstly, we are meant to feel positive that there will be no equity raise for 90 days. The big boys will be positioning themselves carefully to keep mcap as low as possible. Secondly, we have not signed rig contract, so highly unlikely we'll be spudding until after the 90 days. Coincidence? I'd have said yes 24 months ago but not anymore. I'm afraid I have zero trust in the BoD. I mean, who the hell thinks a fund manager is ever going to offer a beneficial finance package! lol
