Media coverage and recommendations

 Here are some articles and summary pages about IOG to muse over


Energy Voice article - 25 Jan 2022

  • Broadly similar to RNS of same day. Perenco terminal operator at Bacton

AJ Bell 10 great stocks - 23 Dec 2021 

  • tipped at 30.8p turn to page 22
  • Taking the Noble Hans Deul jack-up rig to hospital in Dundee to fix leg

  • Says we have 22 employees thought it was more like 50
  • Looks like Harvey wasn't commercial
  • You could have bought shares for 15p
  • Target back in 2019 was 41p (Peel Hunt)
  • Scroll down for BS and P&L for 2018,2019 and 2020
  • Looks like Malcy has talked about IOG dozens of times over the years
  • I think I'll listen to some of these

  • Has some links to recent articles
  • Shows 523.76m shares outstanding. I was looking for the total voting rights the other day
  • I think there are around 100m of other share options in total available the likes of LOG (in administration) see this post for summary of shareholders also some millions with employees who obviously know a good thing when they see it
  • As such dilute any per share valuation you do by about a fifth. Also about £100m in debt due next year? for payback or rollover.
  • Needs a bit of an update Zak as it shows 100% ownership of 
  • Blythe, Elgood, Nailsworth, Elland and Southwark gas fields in the Southern North Sea, with 2P reserves justified for development of 303bcf in total and the Harvey appraisal opportunity (Best Estimate Prospective Resources of 114bcf)
  • We farmed out 50% of most of these fields in July 2019 for up to £165m 

Looking forward to any press from March 2022 😀

I own shares in IOG please don't take this as investment advice.

Short Hare vs Tullow Tortoise

Well that's a bit contrived but we are in a race; it's the shorts against the longs. The shorts want the Tullow price to go to 1p or less and the longs 100p or more. Where are we at the moment? Somewhere in the middle at 45p. There are actually at least 5 hares in this particular race; Odey, Pictet, Varde, Whitebox and Key Group. Key Group are flagging a bit and have dropped to 0.49% or less which means that they don't have to report anymore. Odey and Pictet seem convinced of victory and have raised their stake in the last week of February. Varde has decided they're too far ahead and have repaid 0.32% of the company value on 19 Feb. I expect they're very pleased with themselves as that cost just £1.54m on 19 Feb and would cost £2.06m in todays money 11 days later. So why do investment managers short stock? Broadly speaking it's for two reasons, the first is that they've gone through a discounted cash flow based valuation and looked at any other factors such ...

Metro Bank comparing new share price with old price - post 75m new shares

I wasn't actively tracking Metro Bank, but had been aware of the story these past few weeks. Over the weekend I started reading up about them. The close on Thursday was 536p trading up on Friday to close at 669p up 24.8%. As I write today they're up about 10% at 772p (It also was at 782p whilst working out some of the numbers below) The cash raise was priced at 500p a 36p discount to closing price on Thursday They wanted to raise £350m but actually raised £375m issuing 75m new shares. The BBC wrote about the crisis on 19th March '19 when the share price was 850p, it had dropped from 3396p on 27 July '18 (75% drop) Metro has debt of £249m Here's some high level analysis to translate old money into new money (partly as Google haven't updated the total voting rights (TVR) yet). 27th July '18 company valuation was Marcap £3,308,398,753 2nd May '19 TVR was 97,420,458 and Share price 650p Marcap £633,232,977 Share price at 500p Marcap £487,102...

Calculating Metro Bank's Net Asset Value

With some corrections / additional comments in blue below. Now that Metro Bank has a new £375m on deposit, I thought I would work out the net asset value and shareholder equity. Total Assets at 31 March '19        £22,194m New Capital                                       £375m ------------------------------------------------------- Total                                              £22,569m Total Liabilities at 31 March         £20,788m Shareholder Equity                          £1,781m Total Voting Rights                    172,420,458 Net Asset Value per share            ...
