San Leon purchased our slice of OML 18 for around $220m, oil was priced @ $28bbl. Upon relisting with the transaction complete, San Leons MC was approx $250m.
As a comparative metric, had one had invested in 1 barrel of oil when it was $28bbl (the same time the deal was struck) and kept it up until today, one would be able to sell that same barrel of oil now for $56, therfore doubling ones money.
However, here at San Leon (the oil company that most "holders" like to bash) a rather strange phenomenon has occured, whilst oil has gone on to double, instead of San Leons MC rising along with that doubling of the oil price, it has actually halved, yes halved, as in lost 50% of its value, despite the price of oil increasing in the same window of time by some 100%!! Which is almost as absurd as being told that the very same barrel of oil you purchased @ $28bbl is now only worth $14bbl, instead of its true market value of $56, it couldnt happen could it....
San Leons current MC is just over $140m and oil is $56bbl, more than just a slight disconnect me thinks. Under normal circumstances MC should be at least $550m, I say at least as I am not including any other asetts than OML 18, call the rest such as Barryroe freebies.
The moral of this story is that 93p works out to be the equivalent of, yep you guessed it $550m!!!
