Frontera Energy, deal or no deal?

My notes

  • Cash > Debt by $10MM USD
  • Cashflow from Oil and Mid Stream
  • Cost of oil approximately $25/bbl USD
  • Midstream Infrastructure is a little bit messy to me
    • Book Value of Infrastructure investment = ~260MM USD
    • attack risks
    • commitments to finance infrastructure
    • note: I want to discount all infrastructure value until I get more clarity
  • 15MM USD Dividend Policy Quarterly when Brent >$60/bbl
