What is the boards feelings on this company? Its currently at 4.48. Was as high at $9 this winter before a major plummet.

Looks like their recent numbers are trending in the right direction and some analyst think its estimates should be around $9 for the year

Was that before or after their stock was at $25?

See this thread and the exchange between I Love Bama and Greenhead22.


Yeah, I asked for clarity and Greenhead never got back to me.

Just curious, I'm really thinking about picking up a hundred shares and letting it ride

Like I said, unless I'm reading their P&L wrong, they are trending in the right direction... Major decline took place in the mid to second half of last year and their most recent statement shows a heavy decline in expenses.

Like he said, I am assuming they acquired some key areas during those time frames

They were strictly offshore when I was there... They were bought out by someone shortly after I left I believe (07-09 guesstimate)

Just wondering what the MTBs opinion was on the stock now that it is at $4.50

Like I said, was at $9 in November and $25 in 08'. Looks like there was a downward trend in their financials, but that has since turned around and is trending in the right direction.

Thinking of picking up a few hundred shares and letting it ride

I don't know about their MS Lime assets, but they've got two wells in the deep shelf play making 60 million a day and 1000 barrels a day gross (not sure what WI they own), and some horizontal Cotton Valley in East Texas. Pretty sure they have interests in some of the other south LA deep gas prospects being tested right now. They are probably in the same boat as a lot of the other debt drillers where they have to balance the line between servicing debt and making a profit developing natural gas at these cheap prices. I'm not sure if they have any good avenues to oil prospects or oil growth as that is where the money is for the foreseeable future. The Mississippi Lime has proven to be underwhelming compared to some of the projections a year ago.

They do have acreage in ETX as well as the woodford. I havent payed to much attention to them lately but last I did they were still pretty light on liquids. And mcuh like TigerDog said I am not sure what prospects they have going and oil is where the $ is. I had heard they were trying to partner up with LLOG or another company in some of there deepwater project but never heard anything more on it.

I personally would do it but I am a homer when it comes to local independents.

I mean, I'm thinking worst case scenario I lose $50 bucks, but if it goes back up to its November numbers, I can double my money.

I agree and if you want to look at the long run they are well positioned if/when the US starts exporting NG.

Thats why I hit you up in the other thread. I saw you mention something about good leases that they were acquiring. Did a little reading on their recent financial statement and they expected costs of production to decline by 10-20% due to efficiency savings and then there was talk about about 6k acres they have acquired rights to.
