2020 Outlook

2Q19 results as expected; Shuffling capital into Saskatchewan and waterflood activity

Tamarack Valley reported 2Q19 results which were largely in line with consensus, with production, FFOPS, and capital expenditures reported at 24,090 boe/d, $0.26/sh, and $30.7 mm, respectively, as the company continued to be subject to the ongoing Alberta mandated production curtailments. There was no change to the company’s 2019 guidance, with capital investment of $170-$180 mm still expected to generate production of 23,500-24,500 boe/d and FCF in the realm of $40-$50 mm.

2018/2019 production guidance on the rise once again, Capital plans remain unchanged

With continued well outperformance in all core areas, production over the last four weeks has crested 25,000 boe/d. Annual and exit 2018e guidance ranges have increased by 500 boe/d to 24,000-24,500 boe/d and 24,500-25,000 boe/d respectively. The capital budget is left unaltered at $223mm - $233 mm. Similarly in 2019e, preliminary guidance grows to 25,500-26,500 boe/d (previously 25,000-26,000 boe/d) and spawns from an unchanged capital program of $222 mm. Tamarack Valley will be added to the

2Q18 results top expectations, 2018 guidance in the rise

Production in 2Q18 came in at 23,853 boe/d which was slightly ahead of GMP FE , consensus and company forecasts. Strong cash flow of $61.0 mm or $0.26/sh was 3% ahead of the GMP FE estimate and 8% better than the “street”. Field activity was busier than expected with expenditures of $52.7 mm (vs our $35 mm outlook), however even when paired with $8.4 mm of share buy backs, cash flow sufficiently covered the cash outlay in 2Q. 2018 guidance is being increased to 23,500-24,000 boe/d on strong 1

Posts high quality beat in 1Q18 results

Production in 1Q18 came in at 23,532 boe/d which was slightly ahead of GMP FE, consensus and company forecasts. This was ideally achieved from a capital outlay of ~$72 mm, which was 10% lower than we were forecasting. Strong cash flow of $58.5 mm or $0.25/sh was 10% ahead of GMP FE and street estimates of ~$53 mm or $0.23/sh. Volume growth and lower costs continued to be expected in 2H18 with the 10,000 bbl/d Veteran battery expansion complete and the reactivation of an operated gas plant by t

Posts strong 4Q17 results, announces opex lowering Viking takeaway agreement

Despite 4Q17 production being pre-released, the company’s cash flow of $57.6 mm or $0.25/sh handily topped consensus estimates of $0.20/sh and our expectation of $0.22/sh. All delivered through capital expenditures that were more than 20% lower than anticipated. The winter drilling program has been completed ahead of schedule and has led to January/February average volumes of 22,800 boe/d, with 20 more wells to bring onstream. Key to its 1H18 outlook is the corporate liquids contributions incre

Volumes hit 2017 exit guidance, capital acceleration on tap with continued success

 Tamarack Valley reported production of 20,541 boe/d for 3Q17, in line with consensus expectations; however, a busy third quarter has boosted volumes to 22,000 boe/d, framing the early achievement of 2017e exit guidance.  Cash flow of $34.8 mm or $0.15/sh topped our outlook of $0.13/sh, but remained in line with consensus expectations.  With forecasted cash flow on the rise, management is accelerating a fraction of its 2018e capital program into 2017e, with increased guidance ranging from

Announces 2Q16 Financial Results, Cash Flow Ahead of Expectations

Tamarack’s 2Q16 financial results featured production (pre-released) and capital spending in line with forecasts, with corresponding cash flow that was meaningfully ahead of expectations underpinned by corporate initiatives to reduce operating costs. As a result, the Company’s balance sheet was stronger than anticipated exiting the period, with net debt levels equivalent to a 0.9x run-rate cash flow, or 0.5x its recently reduced $120 mm credit facility (down from $165 mm prior). Our forward view

Central Asia Metals: H1 2023 Interim Results

Central Asia Metals (CAML LN) results in H1 2023 follow a record prior comparable period, with the swing between the two primarily due to commodity price performance. H1 2023 net revenue of US$93.6m was down 18% YoY, EBITDA of US$48.9m was down 35% YoY. COGS was up 9.8% YoY given global inflationary pressures. Other charges on the P&L were minimal particularly now CAML is debt free. Owing to the timing of tax charges and some unfavourable working capital movements which we expect to be resolved

Interim results

Bushveld delivered as robust a financial performance as could reasonably be expected in H1 2023 given the operational challenges faced. We are encouraged by the reported progress made at both Vametco and Vanchem since, and vanadium price aside (current prices are soft, and pose a downside risk if they do not recover in-line with our assumptions) we think Bushveld is broadly on course to meet our full-year estimates. But given its stressed balance sheet, concluding the refinancing of its c.US$45m
