The next focusIR Investor Webinar takes places on 14th May with guest speakers from Blue Whale Growth Fund, Taseko Mines, Kavango Resources and CQS Natural Resources fund. Please register here.
There is no scope of dividend or share buy backs in the near future. That was standard GL BS. Money has to be applied to pay down debt in accordance with agreements ANGS has entered into and strengthening the balance sheet. Thankfully the debt is not massive as some of it has already been paid off via GL confetti. Let the £££s do the talking and that is inevitable.
Producing some 104,000 therms a day plus 120 of condi per day via temp production lines currently. Hedge liabilities exceeded by a mile. Another increase in production will come through via the permanent facilities and additional clean up for the ST. Gas prices will rise come autumn and the cash cow will keep delivering £££s.
Accumulate while these are cheap.
7 million seems to be a BUY considering the prices at the time.
The fundamentals can be ignored temporarily due to day traders etc but they always rise eventually. Milking has begun and optimisation will follow. Market cap around £200 million is coming soon. Accumulate while you can IMHO. GLA.
There is no buyout/takeover so far on the horizon as far as BOD are concerned .When one emerges it will be dealt with at that time .
SFBY is now a project almost fully completed and operational and has turned into a CASH COW. The milking will be optimised in the coming weeks and certainly ,come autumn, there will be £££s flowing inwards. Debt is now very manageable. What is the worth of SFBY? The answer lies in the gas/condensate sales achievement over the coming months PLUS its value as a storage.
SFBY is worth £300 million any given day, with production firmly established. That does not take into account its value when it is converted into a storage facility. BOD plan to extract maximum gas as fast as possible is obvious and then move on to conversion.
It has also been made clear that the funds will be applied towards strengthening the balance sheet , mainly debt repayment and cash reserves. The balance sheet will go rough a huge transformation now as production goes up. Deferred tax asset will be recognised and the massive "hedge liability" will be eliminated. Both accounting adjustments are only possible with confirmed gas production., which is now a reality.
Its annual overheads are running at £3.5 million. See page 45 of company accounts. https://www.angusenergy.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Angus-Energy-Annual-Report-2021-2022-1.pdf
Its total liabilities including loans are standing at £27.125 million (page 46) and some of these loans have been paid off through placings subsequent to balance sheet date. Net debt is £18.97 million note 27 on page 75.
Note 32 talks about placings which raised about £9 million to settle these debts .
Net debts were 18.97 million less 9 million raised plus 3 million overspend =£12.397 million which will be paid off rapidly from increased cashflow .
in simplest terms 300 million therms @ average price of £1=300 million less debt of 12.3= £287.7 million enterprise value today. Deduct the tax liability and we are looking at around £200 million net of tax. This equates to 5 pence per share with full dilution form pending warrants. No account have been taken of legacy assets , condensate sales etc or uplift for storage.
The interview made it quite clear that there will be no RNS as both compressors coming online are imminent and visible daily via national grid data.
A very positive interview
Directors believe that share grossly undervalued and will buy once Nomad clears the purchase.
both compressors to start producing is imminent while they balance the wells. No RNS as data available daily from national grid.
Conserving capital and building balance sheet .
Plans to exploit SFBY fully. Seems going for increased production rapidly to extract maximum gas before turning to storage.
Most important no BS and straight forward humble answers .
We n only go upwards from here.
It should be today
This is the week when both compressors should be switched on. Lets those ££££s flow.
It is a matter of fact that the side track is producing and therefore a success. The company has clearly stated that it intends to deploy both compressors on the 10th May or very soon thereafter increasing flow 0f ££££s gradually.
I believe that this is not the time to be out of this share but accumulate on any weakness as all material risks are eliminated. A temporary glitch,such as more clean up or balancing the wells etc, should not be seen as some sort of failure but a routine exercise.
The rewards we have been waiting for are extremely close and those viewing it with shot terms lens may miss out.
I fear "squandering of success" on geothermal etc far more than any short term technical glitches. The company should focus on strengthening the balance sheet , rewarding shareholders, before embarking on their plans. Its by company's own admission that it can barely manage one asset at a time . Focus should be on developing legacy assets and make £££s flow IN and not outwards. Work on Balcombe, Brockham and Lidsey should not cost more £1.5 million a time and each job is not stretched over several months. Make these assets perform at optimal level and if these do not fit in the portfolio, sell them and use money wisely.
GLA
£££s will be flowing in the next few days. SP will be flying north.
they may be waiting to announce the exact date when the grid connection is made ,which is imminent .
The flow of £££s, which is about to commence, will do the talking. The flow of ££££s will increase steadily.
Push2- Enjoy the weekend and ignore the muppets
A full fledge update will come via investors IQ over the weekend,I hope. The doom and gloom mongers spread fear to suit their agenda. The sidetrack may be still going through the clean up phase . Its question of when the £££s flow and not if. My strategy is to stick around and not trade.
they are effectively just a connection away from getting it to market.
That is the issue which is obvious that the BD have messed up causing a loss of precious revenue/profits. Basic evidence of their incompetence and negligence. An admission and transparency would be better with a firm date. So far it appears that the BOD deliberately misled the market about its "connection dates" to facilitate the sale by PF, another director. The company must have known , repeatedly, that it would not meet the connection dates suggested. That was outright deceitful.
Since we are at the end of the month, the BOD, led by an ex BY heavyweight , must bring some decent corporate governance to the table and issue RNS immediately and unconditionally.
The chances of Tarot being right are as good as RNS from the BOD. tarot occasionally has been accurate in predictions!
Big news coming shortly and Sp will be around 4 pence this week!!!
Any interest in Angus will be for SFBY.
Its outrageous to witness the BOD silence on sidetrack connection. we are losing precious revenue due to gross negligence and incompetence of the BOD
