My pleasure: Key things to watch to model cashflow
It's worth saying this. I think what many failed to realize in the Uk is that ITE isn't just an exploration company anymore but a production/ developer with a North Sea exploration arm, the bulk of the company is production. They are producing 10000/BOE/d at a blended realized price of $35-40 USD = Rev for 2021 $172 Million, very different evaluation models, price/FCF price/dividend yield price/PDP price/NPV-10 on P1-2. Cashflow means dividends, maybe buybacks and no more dilution that explorers in all resource areas are known for.
Things to watch to model cashflow:
1) Price of Edmonton Sweet Oil (priced wit - Edmonton Sweet differential currently about $2, meaning they get $63USD for each barrel) They bulk of their current oil production is this
2) Price of WCS oil (heavy oil. priced wti - WCS differential, currently $12 ) = $53 USD
3) exchange rate of Can $=USD. What's great is their fixed cost mostly are paid in cheaper $can and they sell in USD
4) Price of Alberta Natural Gas, C5, NG Liquids
5) With now over 80 Million BOE in reserves, watch for whatever remains of their old debt to be refinanced with a first lien credit facility at half the interest rate, their Net debt is about 20 million Can$ I think.
Pace of Clearwater development. 400% Irr's, at current price amazing
So it's not a high risk exploration co now, it's a low risk producer with a multi decade investor of drilling locations and the upside of discovery in the North Sea, gravy. It's. manufacturers process now. Drill, Complete, flow, tie-in, repeat... use goggle to find the current differentially. Best Doc
