Sensible view imo would be to hold off buying or adding until we have results and a divi. The new management might not be so wedded to that juicy dividend.

[bountyhunter] 21/2/2024 10:39

Yield 12.2%, final divi due to be announced around 11 April?

just wondering what the upside is with this stock. Im underwater with it and I hate taking a significant loss but I can't see how this meaningfully recovers from here, certainly in the next 6 months? and other opportunities with a clearer picture beckon ..

[lord gnome] 21/2/2024 08:51

I wouldn't bet on it.

[scepticalinvestor] 21/2/2024 08:26

Seems incredibly good value at these levels, all of those issues are priced in, surely?

[lord gnome] 21/2/2024 08:14

You've got a heck of a lot of history to catch up with, SI. Firstly, the whole sector is out of favour. Secondly WFT is hitting profits. Thirdly, someone should write a book about the recent deal for Tailwind.Sentiment here is rock bottom.

Have started watching this. I get that the CEO is leaving but why the huge drift down in mkt cap? Started before he left

Begs the question why anybody would vote for either Labour or the Conservatives.

Completely useless the lot of them.

[nakedmolerat] 20/2/2024 07:27

i agree Joe, they are pandering to the green vote over working class peoples jobs 78% tax from 75%, no new licenses. yet, china and all just do what they want.

Labour will kill our O&G industry. They will allow the EU to finish the job and kill all our manufacturing industries.

The WFT (and labour intending to extend it) has crushed many Co’s and will undoubtedly lead to further job losses.

[pineapple1] 19/2/2024 14:51

I often look at charts .Some do some don't bother . The H@s targeted £1.70 ish .A small gap on the chart down at £1.40 from some time ago. Surely not.
If it gets to £1.70ish i'll buy back in despite exposing myself to the hated WFT even more.
Got quite a few HBR (at least they are trying to diversify unlike SQZ ) so felt that enough in the semi uninvestable NS oil sector....lol
But a bargain is a bargain and i'll have to hold my nose.
imho

Company apparently cut FCF forecast via house broker hence the drop to the low 180s. Hopefully support at 179-178 holds.

" I'd forgotten to include the Tailwind debt."------------------Exactamundo! Mercuria pilliaged copious amounts of dividends and loaded up the company with debt to the gullets before selling it on! Hence why it's best to always always always look at EV rather than cash cost!

[farmscan] 13/2/2024 10:24

No don't bother, I'd forgotten to include the Tailwind debt.

[farmscan] 13/2/2024 10:22

Out of interest, could you show your workings on how you come up with the figure of $21.5/bbl? TIA

[oilinvestoral] 13/2/2024 09:57

With regards to my post # 5656 . While we on the subject of acquisition acumen by management teams. JSE has just been suspended as they are one of the final bidders for Woodside's assets. We don't know the final details but based on press speculation it looks like being priced at a $6.7 / bbl 2P reserves valuation Vs the master stroke of tailwind form PE ($21.5 / bbl)! Also comes with double Tailwinds 2022 production.

[oilinvestoral] 10/2/2024 16:33

MarioPeter isn't suggesting anything! Has hit the nail square on the head! His post 4283 from over a year ago demonstrates to anyone with a basic reading & comprehension level that Mercuria invested the square root of zilch into Tailwind from their own money, they loaded it with debt and harvested egregious amounts of dividends from any cash flow that was generated! The 60 odd million they received from Serica in cash was multiples of any cash they personally invested ! The accounts confirm this! As for the shares they received for free at at slightly below 280p, I certainly wouldn't refer to those as "bought a chunk"! They are known in the industry as "a free kicker"! They are literally laughing all the way to the bank !!!

Hopefully Labour will continue to U-turn up to the Election -

[nigelpm] 09/2/2024 20:06

Yes Stemis - that was one of Mitch's real drivers for the Tailwind deal - diversification away from gas and indeed since then the gas price has tanked and oil is barely moved.

The real mistake of Serica mgmt was not hedging the gas price significantly more than they did at some of the loopy prices - clearly they wouldn't have got away with hedging at the very elevated levels but 125-150/therm would have been sensible - as ever though Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
