Small-Cap Virtual Conference summary
24 Sep, 2026Financial performance and reserves
Maintains low debt with debt to EBITDA less than one and strong cash flow growth, fully funding drilling programs through 2026.
Holds a $75 million line of credit, using it flexibly for drilling and repaying with operational cash flow.
Proved reserves stand at 40 MMb, with 71% undeveloped; proved and probable reserves valued at nearly $600 million at conservative oil prices.
Market cap is $234 million, with enterprise value at $276 million, significantly below reserve-based valuations.
Revenue and adjusted EBITDA are forecasted to rise 37%-48% and 33%-47% respectively, assuming $70 oil.
Operational strategy and drilling
Acreage expanded to 17,700 acres, with 45 Caney wells producing and several more in flowback or completion.
Focused on horizontal drilling in Caney and Upper Sycamore, with new tests in the False Caney and T-zone benches.
Drilling efficiency improved, reducing 1-mi lateral well times from 30 to 12 days, and costs from $7.2M to $5.5M.
Longer laterals (1.5-2 mi) are now standard, offering better economics without proportional cost increases.
Infrastructure is robust, with oil priced at WTI minus $1.85 and gas/NGLs handled via Exxon’s system.
Growth initiatives and capital allocation
Actively testing the False Caney bench, with results expected by mid-November; success could add significant reserves.
Capital allocation prioritizes maintaining or growing production, testing new horizons, and returning capital via share buybacks.
Share buybacks are planned for late 2026, subject to cash availability and cross-border banking limitations.
Dividend initiation is under consideration but contingent on sustained production and price stability.
Conservative hedging strategy in place, using costless collars and deferred puts to protect downside while retaining upside.
