Well run. Their theme is acquire land, develop it, drill it as efficiently as possible to bring up cashflow to realize NAV, sell it when it's de-risked. Management owns about 20% of it. Continues to like it, especially if you want a Canadian gas name.

Difficult to measure their new strategy. They have done great in the past, but this does not fit what he is trying to accomplish right now.

Management owns a large component of the company. Exposure to nat gas, with the current pricing very attractive.

He's ashamed to say he's owned this for a long time. He believes in management which owns a lot of shares. They allocate capital well. They find hydrocarbons and have a great track record selling those. A year and a half ago they sold half their production for more than the enterprise value of the whole company. They now have a great balance sheet and are growing their production in nat gas (in NE B.C.).

(A Top Pick Jun 19/20, Up 95%) Got penalized from their sale of an asset. However, now it is a debt free company and pursuing another area. Does not fit the free cashflow narrative, but it is inexpensive on cashflow. 3.3x multiple at $70 oil.

Has always been an aggregator of plays and then sells them. Just sold their anchor property. Currently developing their Oak property to sell in the future. They have good liquids exposure. Trades at a modest premium with 3.6x enterprise value to cashflow next year at $60 oil. A very unique story. Buying for the potential value of their future plays. Good candidate for the ESG movement.

They sold major assets mid-last year at a decent price (though lower than they would now), so they're sitting on net cash now. Their drilling program runs until Q3 he thinks. There are better oil stocks with more upside.

Kelt Exploration
Not a holding now. They paid off all their debt by selling some assets. They are at a net cash position. In the short term there is no reason to own the stock due to lack of catalyst.

WATCH
Kelt Exploration
Insiders are buying more of the stock. They sold their primary asset. It's up to the team to show that the rest of the assets are as good quality. The streets are sceptic. If the well economics are the same, we will see a rerating.

DON'T BUY
Kelt Exploration
He held it for a number of years. With the current backdrop, they are doing as well as they can. Management is good. They had to sell some of their assets for less than he thought it was worth. The valuation is compelling but there are opportunities in the near-term.

TOP PICK
Kelt Exploration

The stock is down 70% this year on fear of their bank line, which is now fully drawn. They have applied for government loans -- one of the first in the patch to do so. At $40 oil they generate free cash flow. When the market is ready for a corporate sale, you could see a $4 stock price. Conoco-Phillips has been active along the fence line beside them and it could be a good target. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $2.21)

BUY
Kelt Exploration
It's his only oil stock. Their relationship with their bankers is strong, so he's not worried about that. They were under-levered going into the lockdown. They can monetize one of their world-class assets if they wish to, but he doesn't see pressure to. A better oil price would help, of course. Among mid/small-caps, this is a comfortable one to own.

BUY
Kelt Exploration
He has been a recently buyer. The knock is that they are fully drawn against their credit facility. They are undergoing credit reviews by the banks and that is holding things back. They have deferred monetization of assets until at least 2021. There is still room for a good rally from here.

PAST TOP PICK
Kelt Exploration
(A Top Pick Jan 09/19, Down 37%) A lot of new institutional money moved into this in Q4 2019 after it was beaten up. KEL reached an inflection point; they figured out what to do with their land and are moving into full development mode including drilling that will lead to increasing margins. He continues to hold it. He expects good momentum for KEL as the virus fades. A top-tier firm with strong assets in the Montney.
