RE: Recent SP Spike7 Aug 2021 11:29
DOPW,
How can you not know this? You really must do your research and understand the stock before investing. With 15 mins of basic research you can answer your question. You really need to look at the charts and compare the SP rise dates to the RNS’s.
But to offer a basic summary, I’ve copy and pasted a previous post of mine below, it breaks down the past 10 months:
Let’s look at this analytically and compare the RNS flow to the charts.
The news on 23rd February provided our 1st catalyst to break out from 6p. This was the news that production had exceeded the BOD’s expectations and the new Noel wells were expected to provide 500boepd. Other than that we had heard everything else before in the November 2nd RNS such as intention to pay a dividend and production of over 9000boepd. This helped drive the price to double to 10p+
Then it goes quiet until the next big news the 31st March when the Operational and financial update hit stating Noel was exceeding production at 650boepd.
The price rose and then faltered due to delays owing to the complex nature of the capital reduction to allow the dividend. If you all remember, once again we were frustrated at how slow the news was and we watched the price wobble… Remember i3 releasing news right on the deadline of when they said they would and then missing the deadline regarding the dividend (through no real fault of their own due to the tricky nature of the capital reduction exercise)
The next jump from 9.4p up to 12.3p and onwards towards our 52 week high in the upper 16’s , came with the 17th June dual RNS - a operational update and Canadian reserves post. This covered the wapiti plan and stated that final court confirmation would hopefully go through on 29th June.
On 29th June the courts approved the Dividend and soon after i3 announced the Simonette deal. This propelled us the last few percentage points to our peak.
As you can see, the 10 months from re admission to 52 week high (5p to 16.8p) wasn’t clear cut. The period from 28th august to 23rd February was very quiet with regards to hard news, it was a period of preparation and administration to pave the way for this period of growth we are now in. What drove us up in terms of the SP was a small period of intense activity from 31st March onwards
From the news that drove us to 16.8p, only the Noel wells & dividend have been confirmed and reported on as results rather than plans that are being worked on. We are still waiting to hear results of Clearwater, wapiti and Simonette.
In the coming weeks & months the same intensity of news and production upgrades is going to continue and our momentum will rapidly regain its aggressive rise. But this time we will have a more diversified and derisked company behind it.
The price dropped due to the Alberta acquisition dilution as the placing price was 11p. We are waiting on significant and extensive news in the coming weeks and there are also, I’m sure, new big plans for the
