This stock continues to amaze. Actually executing on their plan with Origin and actually now drilling this new and exciting Kyalla gas play and the stock is barely moving! . . . And schlemiel, hasn't Cenkos placed a value of 23p on the 2.2 tcf as part of their 41p target? I've raised the question of what is the true valuation formula or formulas that an actual buyer will use when that time comes to monetize, which is what this is now all about! There were some responses that appeared to have some merit. Then I went back to the May 2019 Cenkos Buy recommendation note, where the 23p is determined in relation to a share price target, and there they make sure to point out that this is for only 12% of the acreage obviously based on the Amungee NW-1H results. So wouldn't it be fair to say, just looking at the massive Velkerri dry gas zone and acreage, that a fair sp value is/will be some reasonable multiple of 23p (what is that, 4 -5x if not more?. . .) , at a minimum? Assuming Santos proves it up in their permit and we know the other vertical wells, Kalala S-1 and Beetaloo W-1 show the same Velkerri dry gas characteristics and further fracs there give us the same results as the Amungee NW-1H, this multiple on the 23p seems to make sense. Is there a further de-risking premium to add to this value - that I am not clear about?. . . So this should be our baseline. Now if one of these wet gas plays hits, then we are looking at that stacked play and layered cake POQ talked about, which should add no less and most likely more to much more than another 23p for each well/frac'd zone showing good/great results, and then the multiple on that for the remaining acreage, similar to the Velkerri dry. Additionally, remember after the 6.6tcf was announced, the stock (using FOLGF) shot up into the 30cent range for a time, only to come back down to its present ridiculous levels, especially in light of all the news concerning the renewed drilling program now fully underway. And the Cenkos note makes clear how undervalued Falcon is to reliable peers, so the comps favor a much higher valuation! The big question will be how much does/will a buyer's offer have to correlate to the actual share price, if at all, versus what is the true worth of the asset play in total, bc to date we all know how undervalued the stock price has been in relation to these fair valuation analyses? Again, I am not an O & G, M & A valuation expert, just going by what some of the "experts," which I believe Cenkos are, have indicated. One thing is absolutely true, we all are stuck in this massive waiting game now, on the edge of our chairs pending continued execution and results! You know you all have my very best regards, KMJ.
