Eddie it is my theory that whilst institutions are still adding at every opportunity they would not want the Company on the bid.

Two snippets from the CEO report I like:

Since the appointment of the new Minister of Natural Resources at the beginning of 2021, GKP and MOL have been meeting frequently with the MNR to progress the preparation of the FDP. Engagement has been constructive, and we are expecting to submit the FDP in Q4 2021 to the MNR for approval.
and
I am excited about finalising the FDP to provide visibility around the significant potential of the Shaikan Field and I am confident that by executing our strategy and striving for the highest operational and financial delivery in a sustainable way we will create significant value for all our stakeholders.

Perhaps we will be allowed to gain a true understanding of Shaikan's potential within the next six months.

Should be a rewarding time for shareholders.

EDIT
The above snippets to be read in conjunction with what the Minister of Natural Resources said about Shaikan and its operators!

Eddie They can borrow hundreds of millions with their FCFIf they were interested in growing production independently they would have done so years ago.Leverage recapitalisation= borrowing to buyback their own stock(that they will have instructed a proxy to do 2-3 years ago)This is a very hot takeover now.

[eddie47] 02/9/2021 07:46

Interesting that there is no reference to the buy back apart from optimised 'capital structure'.

[sinopec_gkp_new_owners] 02/9/2021 07:40

Was he? I doubt it , the bashers are all long,or bonkers Anyway now it's going to be a rather exciting few weeks.

55,000 dividend all going back in , LOLOLOLOLThanks everyone You know who you are, 4yrs , couldn't have done it without you :)However no IOC will want them to do what is very obvious, and flagged in the RNS, and that's leveraged recapitalisation...I'm mindful of a friendly deal post that , but the chance of a hostile bid now massively increased

[sbb1x] 02/9/2021 07:36

Based on the 100m $ = 72.5m pounds Dividends of 34pWe should be trading above 300+!!!!!!!!Buy backs coming in November or as soon as 55,000bpd is announced imo.

I don't hold shorts into results. I also only ever use shorts with a G stop so can never suffer unexpected large loss. Am out of my short for a tidy profit. Will reconsider re-adding when the short term wave of exuberance fades. I see no sign of the much touted takeover again....

[highlander7] 02/9/2021 07:32

Ah yes Patriotic Paddy who can only count to 10 ( or 20 with his socks off )

LOL

[shortsqueezer] 02/9/2021 07:30

Optimise capital structure= leveraged recapitalisation/buyback.....Now that's needed pre a friendly sale.Any competitive bids would now have to come soonerNow out of close period let's see what PDMRs do.Let's see what IOC (s) do

[sbb1x] 02/9/2021 07:21

Wow wow wow!!!!!

[highlander7] 02/9/2021 06:35

Good point SQ but its too garbled to assess that.

In any case it sounds like its from a Driller on one of the rigs out there. Who could be feeding them snippets by the sound of it. He needs to be careful if he is , because not only do they get fired if caught , but they are blacklisted and thats a big deal nowadays.
