Some have commented on this BB how being listed on AIM negatively affects I3E share price. Interesting that The Works has just moved from the main market of the LSE to AIM. Not that I3E is big enough for the ftse 250 (yet!) but this does highlight the benefits of AIM.
The directors argued that an admission to AIM would be more appropriate for the retailer due to the cost and regulatory requirements of the main market becoming progressively higher in recent years and disproportionately burdensome.

I don’t know if it was commented on here yesterday but did you spot the first sentence in the “Return of Capital” section of the RNS? It stated:
“As part of its total return model, the Company remains committed to delivering a sustainable monthly dividend to complement its organic growth profile.”
Note the word “monthly”. Is this a copy and paste error from a previous RNS or a hint at the future, made possible by the new debt facility meaning the previous restrictions no longer apply?
A couple of interesting short articles on Trans Mountain pipeline:

The inventory build reported today by the American Petroleum Institute was predicted by Eric Nuttall a week or two ago due to refinery maintenance season. Oil demand isn’t dropping and what’s important, he said, are global inventory levels. He expected this period to be followed in November and December by significant inventory draws.
Some good news.

We shouldn't get too excited about Irishkea. O'Cathain puts chances of success here at 1 in 3, so by their own calculations they do not expect it to succeed. Remember - they put the chances of success of the drilling last year at Serenity at 50% which turned out to be a duster.
Please could someone explain how the exchange rate affects I3e’s NOI. The RNS on 28th June stated an assumption of USD / CAD Foreign Exchange of 1.33 and a change to NOI of USD1.27 for each CAD 0.01 change.
The exchange is currently 3 cents more at 1.36. So if this was maintained for a year would NOI increase or decrease by 1.27 x 3 = USD 3.81 million?
Cheers
If I3E were delisted from AIM and moved to a Canadian only listing, what would happen to our shares? I mean, are you forced to sell? When this happens how does the sell price typically relate to the current share price? And for those of us invested in platforms which don’t allow investing in Canadian stocks e.g. Fidelity, Halifax, would that be the end for us?
Morning All.
Regarding the new commodity price assumptions of $72 for WTI and CAD$2.60 for AECO, the update on 29 June 2023 stated "Commodity prices and foreign exchange reflect full year average realized prices or rates." In the presentation on 5th July they were described as reflecting "Next Twelve Month Net Operating Income Sensitivity". So are these commodity price assumptions for the whole of 2023 (to include the prior 6 months) or for July 2023 to June 2024?
Also, where do people get the current AECO prices? I use the following which has it at CAD$2.70

I used to look at gasalberta.com but that seems to be delayed by a day or two.
Many thanks
Tony (or anyone), any idea how much we would need to spend on drilling in 2024 in order to maintain the 2023 production rate to counter the natural decline? We'll end this year up 3%, but that includes the aggressive drilling in Q1 2023 before the CapEx cut. Presumably if the rate of drilling in 2023 H2 was maintained into 2024, we would decline.
The RNS on 29 June stated "Approved capital programme of USD 25 million plus USD 6 million, subject to board approval, for a revised drilling programme targeting the Company's Clearwater acreage". So is that a total of USD 31 million for the year to achieve this 3% increase?
Many thanks
