Gas prices in Canada has been decimated. This one has really done nothing for the last few years. Feels that a lot of the bad news is already in the stock. If you own, he wouldn't rush out to sell it, but wouldn't be buying any more at this time. They’re fairly good operators and there should be some growth, it's just that the underlying commodity is so weak that it is difficult for them. Also, there has been more pressure on because of tax loss reasons.

From an operational point of view, this is a decent company. They have decent assets. However, there is a very high debt level, which is probably the main reason why it has been getting destroyed on the stock market. For investors in a struggling sector, this is just not what they want. He wouldn't recommend this because of the debt. He would rather make less money on less risk on something else.

(Top Pick Sep 19/16, Down 60%)  It has really fallen.  He owns it because it is the third largest Nat Gas reserve of the publicly traded companies.  It is one of the fastest growing Nat Gas companies.  This year they did an acquisition that was medium to long term accretive.  Then their bank line was pushed and they issued debt.  Now Nat Gas has fallen in half.  We need improvement in Nat Gas pricing through exports. 

Hasn’t held this for about 2 years. If bullish on Canadian gas, this is not a bad name. They’ve suffered from an equity issuance they did earlier this year, where they diluted the shareholder base by about 58%. That was to get more drilling depth acreage, more contiguous where they can draw longer laterals. Trading inexpensively relative to its inventory depth, but there is a lack of a lot of pipeline, and thinks it will continue to sell at a disconnect. There are better names in the US.

Production metrics fell off but the management team are always looking further out.  Short term they are negative, but positive long term.

Did an acquisition which really ticked off a lot of investors diluting the share count by about 50%. The attraction of the company was that they had very good well results and very, very deep inventory. Management has had a tough time selling this. You just have to wait for this to clear. It screens very well on a valuation relative to growth rate. Extremely inexpensive relative to the growth rate and the running room they have now acquired.

Recently hit his radar screens. Seems to be a well-managed company. They hit the pocket when a lot of the energy companies were having some difficulties. Have very good land positions. He is looking at this as a possible purchase.

A small company in the Montney gas play. They have big resources and big upside if they were to be acquired. The issue is that gas prices have been pretty weak. They continue to issue stock to finance their activity, which is negative for the stock in the short term.
