Shrewd deal for huge growth7 Jul 2021 12:40
Hi there Tony et al,
As a long-term holder, when I saw the placing News this morning the bottom fell out of my bum.
I must admit that seeing the share price plummet after such amazing growth was utterly gutting.
However, I feel very positive about this deal and for an initial share price rout we could see some truly amazing gains in the short to mid term.
- In answer to your query Tony, they state that the propertion of Oil to gas is 51% which I think is pretty Damn good.
- 150% increase in reserves, plus a 70% increase in revenue marks this out as a cracking shrewd deal as we have come to expect from Graham and the team.
- also, there is the boost to infrastructure and therefore savings are to be had with regards to production.
- once all said and done there will be around $27 million in debt which is only 0.36 NOI
- 140 drilling locations as well as over 80 reactivation targets. Combine this with the rest of the Canadian portfolio and we have hundreds and hundreds of targets to increase production.
- The portfolio is now even more diversified and derisked.
- it would be interesting to see if our current huge tax pool of $177million is increased by this acquisition?
Combine all of this with the upcoming dividends, new drilling in Clearwater, Simonette and Wapiti and this is going to be huge. Not to mention Serenity! And eventually liberator!!!
So to summarise, what initially felt like a massive kick in the nuts turns out to be really rather incredible.
