Explorer/producer in the North sea. Likes what they are doing. It is very key that they did this $275 million financing. They paid up 9.5% at a bit of a discount price. This frees up all of this money for them to pay off their very restrictive bank lines. NAV is anywhere up to around $1.50, indicating it has garnered a lot of respect. Thinks it will go higher.

Oil/gas servicing. Involved in the transportation side in both Canada and the US in the oil and gas industry. Feels they could become an acquisitor, consolidator by taking out a lot of mom-and-pop operations.

Leases aircraft to a lot of the major mobile carriers. Have over 100 planes. Dividend of 6.46%. Recently wanted to improve their balance sheet and use money for consolidation. BV of around $20. Did a share offer at about $14, which was a little upsetting. Stock went down below $13 but is now working its way back up. Good management.

North sea oil producer. Feels it has an NAV of $3-$3.50. They were under a lot of pressure. When they took over Valliant energy and paid it off in stock, a lot of the Valliant shareholders liquidated their stock. In the Greater Stella, the 1st well came in at over 10,000 barrels a day and they have 3 or 4 others, which got people all excited. The Valliant acquisition took them up to a higher level and it should be and could be a takeover candidate, but it is no longer a small cap, it is now a mid-cap, which should gather a lot of people’s attention. Cheap.

Energy services sector is the cheapest in the TSX. Beauty of this one, along with the others, is that most of them are paying dividends. This one pays 4.5% plus. This company is the largest in the coiled tubing in Western Canada. Have also done a great job in acquisitions and integrating. The company is a sitting duck to be taken over in the next 12-18 months. Regardless of where oil is, services still have to be maintained so companies like this will all do well in this environment.

This one is in the penalty box. It operates out of Egypt. Have hired a new president. This is a work in progress. Has an NAV of around $0.17. Egypt seems to be a place that is still in turmoil but he doesn’t think it is getting any worse. Where they have been producing is off the beaten track, not in Cairo. Just picked up a new property in the Gulf of Suez which should be quite interesting. We are approaching the tax loss selling season, so a lot of people may be selling, which could offer an opportunity for anyone interested.
