Scored people sell up all the time at "bizarre" junctures as they have their own investment strategies - these could all have been bought at 11 or 12p and now needed for another business - so they could have their good positive reasons for doing so - just as you do? Were you over at IOG and if remembered correctly are you still there?
All IMHO, DYOR.
Corpse - you're absolutely 100% correct - of course all the problems and issues over last couple of years have been to do with IR?
As I keep on saying - especially whilst the mad share price predictions - always 2 years away - lol - what happened to all the ones two years ago which I pooh poohed then - continue - and ultra positive work programmes - that are somehow magically erasing away all the issues that have arisen in last two years - because there will be more money available (?!) continue - I will continue to point out the slight errors in this logic - if of course that's alright with you - as I keep on and on saying - as you know - if you don't like what I say just filter me pal - really pretty simple.
Last time I looked we live in some form of democracy with a veneer of freedom?
As ever all IMHO, DYOR!!
..."An idiot can sell this company on its prospects. Sorry for rant."...
What's your problem corpse - you have exactly that with the current CEO in charge - so surely you've got what you want?
All IMHO of course!!
Damp squid ?!
Is that a reference to Krakken?
I think it is more like a damp squib meself?
There you go the twat (Coldspy - big man handle!)- who has been found to be constantly wrong - as ever being rude.
I have been very respectful as my mum taught me well, not to taunt people who were obviously not gifted as myself but, I have to call a twat a twat.
Were you the one likening this to Hur - and stating someone here should remind the BoD of this - f's sake you are so obtuse there are masses of differences here! IMHO.
Hurricane "saved" - I think a lot of smallie PI's would be most disappointed with that "save"?
HeresHopin - I know you're not going to converse with me - a bit like JH77 when the share price was in the teens - as he didn't have much of a clue either but.... Based upon your non response as to how long you've been a holder, how many you carry etc I'm going to assume (boring but I know I know...) you are a relative Johnny cum lately who thought they'd buy some say 40% higher than now - just because it can't get that much lower?! Now you're angwy and sensitive about that. At the end of the day everyone has to take responsibility for their decisions. To make myself very clear - I do not think this is the end of IOG - but there is some (possibly quite high) risk that
1. There will be some potential dilution to appease current bond-holders
2. It is very easy to feel calm when conversing with Bod etc about such things because we all have differing viewpoints and they will probably feel they have done a good job in "minimising" any possible dilution (coincidentally leaving them with more time in their over paid positions and re-balanced LTIPS (!)) whereas small PI's will feel hard done by and "let down".
3. I have always been very consistent with my messaging which was - if the current producing well failed then I felt IOG would follow quickly. Now it is producing (whether in line with previous forecasts or not) the journey will still be very arduous and difficult - even with higher gas prices this winter - especially in light of what look like lower guided production profiles for second part of year?
4. This is all IMHO and as ever DYOR and OWN your decisions.
Very best of luck all.
CS -define a "lot" higher please?!
The posts where I think you "wanted*"me to be your wife David S?
Nice to see you still have your sense of "humour"?
* Subconsciously
Nice one HH - had people listened to my concerns which let's face it have gone back years instead of being influenced by continual positive enforcemant agenda on these boards - maybe just maybe they would have been in a "better place"?
Let's be very clear I suffered relatively large losses here at or around 7-8p when I finally sold out?
Where on Earth did I quote I'd have stayed away if share price was 5-6p - please c&p that?!
I would be the absolutely first to congratulate anyone who made money - as I have said previously - they have far bigger balls than me now - and that is saying something!
What I don't like - is those same posters continually exchanging - opinions - NOT facts but dressing them up as such.
You don't sound that gifted in the brain department and I hope you can grasp the following - but I'm going to spin your argument around - I have been continually posting over the years about my mis-givings - go back and check - I have never "gloated" about the share price being low - I "gloated" about all the positive enforcement here - that used to shout me down and call me and a couple of others boring - I hope some people did take notice and then "may" have reflected on those observations at the time and could have potentially cut their losses but to be clear i offer absolutely no investment advice?
So I am assuming you are a holder - may I ask at what price you purchased and when?
I will endeavor to reply back tomorrow as have to go out now.
All IMHO and as ever most importantly everyone DYOR and only ever invest what you can afford to lose!
Ah 2phevs - me old mucker - what price were you recently "criticising*" me for - around 5-6p I think?
I thought you traded in and out though?
Very well done you.
* I say criticising but really there should be an intelligent logic attached to it - but that was the best way of description methinks? I've got to run now or else dogs are going to pooh everywhere and are running bloody amok!
Why's that HH?
Serious question buddy both David S and Coldspy have been incredibly rude to me in the past - but I'm sure you know that or you wouldn't have commented from such an uneducated viewpoint?
I will be off soon so don't take non reply as implicit acceptance or rude - but I keenly await your reply?
Coldspy how's it going buddy - you didnae reply to my last post to you when you were so rude as per...?
Were you around when Fiona et al (the cluster f*** Management team, lol) came up with this cluster f*** of a BS "reconstruction" as I had been here for many years actually.
I cannae remember.
What I did remember was when one of the best top quartile management teams in the business were looking to potentially purchase here and all the "experts" on here talked so derogatively about those "wide boys".
All I had was absolute admiration and was personally so angry the "muppet central" management team here didn't even reply to the RRE team and was derided for that opinion.
History can be a wicked mistress eh?
So you're talking 15p take out now - may I ask what you base that on?
I cannae come up with any higher than 5-6p based upon debts, assets and "possible" tax write offs - if anyone is interested that is and I may be being overly generous there? If they get a not particularly dilutive deal with the bond-holders - you "may" see more than that as a continued holder?
Now then where's Del talking about Rupert being one of the best in the business - here's hoping he can magic away the BS issues!?
As ever all IMHO and DYOR folks!
Very busy - so literally can only make a couple of posts a day so don't take non reply as rudeness or implicit agreement but, thought I'd share my "wisdom" just for you (CS) today!!
David S another respectful and admired poster - how's it going buddy - you still a holding and what share prices are you "forecasting"?
Jesus they need that RNS or else the "shorters" (I'm assuming in collaboration with the bond-holders?!) will be in control which is something at least one twat on here seems to think. Are these "naked" shorts as I cannae see any evidence at all of "material" shorting. I can see a lot of traders coming in and out though - which is always going to contribute to volatility - and be misinterpreted by people of a certain IQ. All IMHO.
I absolutely don't disagree which was why as I have also posted over on ADV I'm in a half way house between the ultra positives like Del etc and the ultra negs like Jak etc. A compromise arrangement of sorts will have to be reached to alleviate bond concerns in the short to medium term - but I personally don't think this will include wiping out IOG equity however they ain't a charity!
I absolutely agree - I think their drilling team is much improved - or more-so the management of the third parties they paid to conduct on their behalf!
However the issue there has also always been their G&G team, IMHO - and have they got that right yet?
Drilling is relatively "easy" and quantitive in nature - Geology more of an "art"?
That is not to say drilling in N Sea is ever easy of course!
Cjm83 coldspy just come angry little free bb warrior twat who wouldn't say boo to a sparrow in real life but, throws around like a big one behind a computer screen - lol.
I see you worked on H2 which could well have been a very successful well and help the current situation which has led you to buy but - as Mole alludes there is a lot more to IOG issues than the performance of H2 - if it had failed then game over for IOG but now it has been successful it's still going to be a tough arduous journey for share-holders, IMHO!!
I post on here (firstly because it's a free country last I looked?)just to redress some balance between the "it'll be in the high teens - twenties - thirties" posts and some cold hard facts, which is that this isn't being "shorted" (that much) but is a good excuse - just like "mm games" to rely upon for more fundamental reasons - again all IMHO! Best of luck all!
You also potentially need a deal with the bond-holdesr to placate them - this is the most important aspect of IOG's future at the moment. shorting is not high for this company but it's woes are - it's really that simple guys - stop looking for reasons / excuses that simply aren't there. IMHO.
Best of luck all.
Apologies Del and it is my last post today but - can you provide a reconciliation to that figure of 10 million per month revenue - what currency is that, does it take into account the net JV share of IOG and the initial amount repayable to CAL E - and I am assuming you are factoring in a substantial price rise for the gas toward the end of year - so is it an average amount per month to quote as "now" - or is this forecast toward the end of year? Thanks. IMHO, DYOR.
Stubluekpl - but absolutely respectfully - who has been right about the constant negativity and isn't it better to have someone remind of this rather than an area of confirmation bias?
The "management" team here is much much improved but this will still be a difficult and arduous journey back to previous company valuations mooted by many on here - why not just filter me - then no stress?
Right really got to go so best of luck all.
