From that Mirabaud analyst report;
"On a DCF basis, we value the Developed Producing assets at US$76m (6.9p/shr), which, after adjusting for forecast net debt, results in a Core NAV of US$56m (5.1p/shr). This assumes a Brent price of US$45/bbl in FY21, ramping up in steps over FY22-24 to US$60/bbl long term. We attribute a further US$108m (9.8p/shr) of
upside to the 2P reserve base, risked at 75%, which takes our 2P NAV to US$164m, or 14.9p/shr. On top of this,we value the legacy North Sea assets at a further US$54m (4.9p/shr), risked at 30%, resulting in a Total NAV of US$219m, or 19.8p/shr.
Our target price of 10.0p/shr is set conservatively at the mid-point between Core and 2P NAV.
As i3E demonstrates success of its Canadian strategy, and/or succeeds in attracting industry investment in the North Sea assets, we will look to rebase our target price, attributing more value to the Canadian 2P reserve base and the North Sea. Still, given that the shares are currently trading around 5.5p/shr, our conservative target price offers over 80% upside to the current price, and therefore we initiate coverage with a BUY recommendation"
