Does look interesting romaron...
MO's had a quick scan as is always good to be Diversified (is same as DGOC name, lol) and good to look for potential...
Good divi yield (7%), but such high divi when taking on $1b debt to fund new acquisitions will mean having to pay interest on divi borrowing portion....
Is too soon after Carillion for MO, but could have lots of legs in near term and could turnout top winner (not wishing to tar all with same brush), just that borrowing to assist with divi payment is unattractive to MO... Keep an eye on shorts...
But is very good 2P reserves, more than ENQ...
Has lots of wells with June $0.5b acquisition... Would not envy decommissioning bill... ;-}
i.e from acquisition RNS in June...
"The company did not disclose the identity of the seller, but said the deal would be a reverse takeover.
The assets, which include about 11,350 wells with current net total gas production of 32,100 barrels of oil equivalent (boe) per day, would more than double its net daily production, the company said.
London-listed Diversified Gas, which has a market value of about $300 million (223.3 million pounds), said it would fund the deal through a new $1 billion (744.3 million pounds) debt facility and a share sale worth $225 million (167.5 million pounds).
The company said the deal is expected to immediately add to earnings and that it would more than double its proven developed producing reserves to 393 mmboe."
Good luck with choices...
