Prior the WS deal HBR was in the unique position for an O&G company of having net cash, the only reason we are in a net debt position is solely down to the Wintershall deal that cost $11.2bn, current MCap of $3.25bn combined with $4.2bn is way below what we paid for Wintershall. So is the market not only valuing the pre Wintershall HBR stock at ZERO it's also discounting the deal too, MADNESS imo.
All oil majors have significant debt, HBR are no different, don't forget we refinance part of the debt recently on much better terms plus going forward ;
"Harbour Energy plc is pleased to announce that following completion of the Wintershall Dea asset portfolio acquisition, S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings have UPGRADED the Company's Issuer credit rating to BBB- and the issue rating on Harbour's $500 million senior unsecured notes to BBB-. In addition, Moody's Investors Service has assigned a Baa2 credit rating to Harbour. All ratings have STABLE outlooks..."
