Price prediction August 2011 …. Really was exciting back then … !
“” Canaccord’s Linsay Wheeler was less restrained. The analyst repeated a ‘buy’ recommendation for Rockhopper and upped her price target from 593p to 871p a share.
“Rockhopper’s resource update is very encouraging and we expect the market to react positively to the materially increased scope of the Sea Lion project,” the Canaccord analyst told clients.
Wheeler added: “Using an oil price of US$87.50/barrel alongside a 12% discount rate, we estimate Rockhopper’s NAV to be 871p/share. Our valuation hinges on our estimate of the group’s current cash position plus our estimate of the value of the Sea Lion Main Complex, using the updated mid-case recoverable resources of 325 million barrels, risked at 75% ahead of a formal Competent Person’s audit.”
While repeating a ‘buy’ and putting his 510p target under review, Westhouse Securities analyst Andrew Matharu said: “The Sea Lion Main Complex (SLMC) is, in our view, now a viable stand-alone project with additional upside still remaining.”””
