Michele RobitaillePengrowth Energy Trust (B)PGF.B.TODON'T BUYJan 06, 2006

They haven't moved to the more sustainable model of an income trust in the energy sector. There has been a dramatic shift of payout ratios trending very strongly downwards.

With the whole trust area collapse, we are getting back to fundamentals. Outlook for this company is quite strong. There is a good seasonal play in a lot of the oil/gas trusts. Fairly cheap.

This company has had a long, long history of managing and income trust, so you have to like management. His fair market value is about double what the stock is trading at.

Starting to look at it a little bit closer now. Seems to be turning around. Debt and payout ratio is a little bit higher than he likes. As this gets corrected, it may be one that he would add.

Recently sold his position. Payout ratio has come down to about 70% and hired a new management team that have strong technical skills. Recently acquired Esprit, which was good, but paid a full price for it. Will buy on weakness.

In terms of some of the oil/gas trusts, it is timely to be looking at them right now. Check the yield and cash flows that are being generated.

COMMENT

Pengrowth Energy Trust (B)(PGF.B.TO)

Jun 23, 2006
As other trusts were running down their payout ratios, this one continued to pay on a relatively high level and relied on acquisitions to replace production. That model doesn't work any more. They are now changing. From a fundamental basis, they are improving.

The class structure is being dissolved. They have done a pretty good job over the last year of cleaning up some of their problems. Owns some in an index fund, only because he has to. Prefers others. Reserve life of about 11 years. Payout ratio is a little high.

Pengrowth has a really good asset base. They have had a lot of turnover in senior management especially on the technical side. Before entering this trust he would like to see a credible technical team on board. He really likes the assets.

Sold 2% of their production on an odd lot arrangement. Allows the company to capitalise on the possible upside of others drilling on their land without committing capital. Outlook for natural gas is weaker now and they are at the upper end of operating costs.
