Brian MaddenGran Tierra Energy Inc.GTE.TODON'T BUYFeb 03, 2021

This was brought to his attention by the same analyst that discovered Condor and Tenaz when they were unknown. It is selling assets in Columbia and Ecuador and will be debt free with a cash position. It can now focus on Clearwater which is the hottest trend, as well as applying modern Canadian exploration and drilling techniques to old Soviet wells and areas in Azerbaijan which they have done before. There is the potential of high impact there. Shareholders have approved the sales but there is some risk in that they have not yet received regulatory approval in Ecuador and Columbia.                         Buy 5  Hold 2  Sell 0

Gran Tierra (GTE-T) vs Parex Resources (PXT-T). A tale of comparing two brothers. Both are in South America with Columbian core assets. Parex being a pure play vs Gran Tierra having ventured into Peru and Brazil and have exited these areas and now looking at Mexico and so forth. Prefers Parex as a South American play, very consistant. Gran Tierra has had its misteps, still has very good core Columbian assets.

He's out of the energy sector. It's one of the worst sectors due to an exodus of investors. He owns BP and a few smaller Canadian ones, like Cardinal.

It is his large cap recommendation. They did 100% oil in Columbia last year. They got some parcels in Ecuador. He likes the stock and has a $5.50 target and thinks it will go to $12. They are buying back the stock on weakness themselves. (Analysts’ price target is $5.28)

(A top pick September 18/17, up 65%) The company has done a fabulous job. They are in Columbia.

(A Top Pick Sep 18/17, Up 62%) They did very well with production. There was the bump in oil prices and he sees further increases in production.
