BUY
Likes this one. Has a $5.50 target. Sees an NAV of $5.48. Expecting them to do 14,400 BOE’s a day this year. About 34% of oil and liquids, which will be cash flowing them $122 million. Debt about $136 million. Just over 1:1 debt to cash flow ratio. Could see volumes growing up to 15,000 BOE’s a day by year-end.
DON'T BUY
Have not had a good time of things. Let leverage get too high and had to sell key assets that use to be their jewels. Reserve bookings have been in question. Have retrenched and focusing on probable reserves and turning them into proved reserves. Have lost a lot of their luster and the attention of the street.
DON'T BUY
Management was chronically over promising. But management had turned over. Have extensive land package. There is no leadership or game plan today. Production is declining.
COMMENT
Sitting on a huge land spread. Just had a new management change. Has been struggling to grow production for several years. Will take a little while for the management team to chew through the properties and divest themselves of non-core assets. On a long-term holding you could do okay but he prefers others.
BUY
(Market Call Minute) Cut reserves today. Much cleaner story now. If you are patient on Nat Gas, it is ok.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 10/11. Down 40.32%.) Doing about 15,000-16,000 barrels a day of which 37% is liquids, 5700 BOEs a day. Has a nice spread in the West 5 area. Cheap but it could get cheaper.
TOP PICK
0.4 price to book ratio. Bounced up a little bit. Likes it. Book value was $3.99 in March. Should be 40%+ oil and liquids next year. Northwest Alberta corridor. If it stays as cheap as it is someone will come knocking, but wait until the fall to buy.
PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 4/12. Up 1.79%.) Merging with WestFire Energy (WFE-T) in October, which makes a lot of sense. Likes this company longer-term. This is one you want to own for the long run.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 4/12. Down 1.79%.) Acquired by Long Run Exploration (LRE-T) in Oct/12. LRE would be a fabulous buy under $4.
