Spartan Energy Corp

If you are bullish oil, you may want to look for others companies rather than waiting for the conversion to Vermilion. He would favour other names, like Baytex.

PAST TOP PICK
Spartan Energy Corp

(A Top Pick April 12/17 - Down 15%.) Really disappointed with it. They owned it since it went public. He overestimated management. Good example of why people don’t want to invest in the Canadian oil patch.

Spartan Energy Corp

He bought Spartan a few days ago, just before Vermillion made its offer for Spartan. He thought he was buying an undervalued company with meaningful leverage to the oil price and was surprised to see the takeout offer by Vermillion. He sold the company at a loss. A few points to consider: 1. The company has been shopped a few times over the past couple of years. The management team was looking for an exit. So the metrics for this deal should not be taken as reflecting the broader market of Canadian mid-cap light oil companies. There are other factors, such as performance warranties, motivating management to sell. These were all disclosed, but they are significant. There is such a lack of interest, in this market, in small and midcap energy stocks that it is understandable why a management team would just say “Screw it” and sell the company.

It is one of the better oil stocks. As a global investor he needs to know what is the best opportunities. Oil in Canada was a thing of the past. But they have oil that is nearer to where it is needed in Canada. They have some of the best light oil resource in Canada; have a strong management team and low debt. The end game for a mid-cap has to be acquisition. We used to sell everything we had to the US but now they have enough. Politicians should have had the foresight 10 years ago.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Spartan Energy Corp

The company has done very well. Balance sheet $180 million against $1.3 billion of debt. Book value is $7.53 so it is trading (at $5.68 on the day of the interview) at a significant discount to book. He expects this company to see $5, though. This company is 90% oil. He expects cash flow this year of about $1 per share. He thinks it will be a good buy when it gets close to $5. This is a good name to own for the cycle. Management is well liked in Calgary.

BUY
Spartan Energy Corp

Has owned it for a long time, but it has disappointed because of oil prices, not the company itself. Balance sheet is pristine. Will grow production per share at 10% this year. A disciplined, well-run company, but it's out of favour. Company has announced a share buyback. A wonderful investment.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Spartan Energy Corp

He holds this company and sees a target of $10 in the next 12 months. In Q4 production came in below his target of 23,000 boed, but the cash flow was very good. Debt is not a problem. Management has a good record. You may be able to buy it sub-$5. (Analysts’ price target is $9.68 )

DON'T BUY
Spartan Energy Corp

No surprises from their earnings announcement today. Trades at 4x cash flow and five years worth of production stream. Well-liked CEO, but this is a segment of the market that investors don't care about. Their 5% stock buyback isn't enough to impress him.

DON'T BUY
Spartan Energy Corp

Very limited appetite for the mid-caps in Canada. Trading at 4.1 cash flow. They 5 years’ worth of proven reserves. Effectively paying below the value of the production and getting their unbook inventory for free. They shouldn’t spend any money on waterflooding. The stock market doesn’t give a darn about it.

TOP PICK
Spartan Energy Corp

A light oil company that trades cheaply. Management continues to under promise and over deliver. (Analysts’ target: $9.87).

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Spartan Energy Corp

It is trading at book value ($7.58). It is 90% oil. They are going to spend $380 Million in 2018. It is a buy on any weakness. In the $6 area it makes a lot of sense.

PAST TOP PICK
Spartan Energy Corp

(A Top Pick Jan 31/17. Down 18%.) Has quality management and a large insider ownership. South east Saskatchewan, pure play, growing 10% a year. The valuation would have been compelling then and is even more compelling now. This is a segment of the market that nobody cares about.

HOLD
Spartan Energy Corp

Energy has been out of favour, and he looks to see where the bottom would be. It is currently around $6. It’s very toppy at this stage. Looks like it has bounced off the bottom of the channel, but doesn't have any real big momentum going through here. If he owned this, he would continue to hold.

He has this on his coverage list. He likes the company. When it goes back to $4 or $5 you want to take advantage of it.

COMMENT
Spartan Energy Corp

He likes this and their light oil assets. Trading at a very reasonable cash flow multiple. The balance sheet is good and he likes management. Feels the reserves are under represented, so he sees very positive reserve growth. Has good production per share growth. This is an oil company that actually generates free cash flow.
