Revolting shareholders.6 Nov 2025 08:03
Seems to me that much of the criticism levelled at Routh is borne of dissatisfaction with the SP rather than a reflection of operational realities. It is also a little hypocritical to simultaneously complain about lack of communication whilst using said communications as evidence of non-performance. I agree that it is frustrating to find deadlines repeatedly missed, and I have said that MR needs to discover the art of underpromising and overdelivering, however the fact is we are not the operators of our key assets and have zero control over much that he is being blamed for.
What we are hearing from Heyco and Po Valley is that we will be drilling new wells in the near term future and I see no reason to disbelieve that. What we don't need is fellow shareholders talking the SP down further. Its like a self harming society in here recently.
Its been a long time coming but a little patience should see revenues rocket as wells start coming non stream over the next 12 months. Everything else is noise and is counterproductive to what posters want to see, namely a steady increase in the SP towards a realistic valuation of the company.
