The boards of Ophir and Medco have agreed a recommended acquisition of Ophir by Medco at £0.55/sh, valuing Ophir at c. £361 mm. The acquisition is conditional on amongst other things, a courtsanctioned scheme of arrangement which needs 75% shareholder approval. The Ophir board intends to recommend unanimously the transaction to Ophir Shareholders. The company expects the scheme will become effective in 1H19.
At the request of Ophir, the Takeover Panel has extended the deadline for Medco to either announce a firm intention offer for Ophir or announce that it does not intend to make an offer, until 5.00 pm, 31 January 2019.
FY18 production was 29,700 boe/d (GMP FEe: 25 mboe/d), 8% ahead of guidance with Madura, Sampang and Block 12W contributing 18,000 boe/d (GMP FEe: 15 mboe/d).

Pantheon Resources indicated that the Talitha #A well is flaring gas from the Kuparuk section as the well cleans up. Key operational data: That gas is being flared is highly encouraging. This is an early indicator that the well's completion operations have been effective. It is also absolutely necessary for these wells to have a high gas content because it is the expansion of gas that will provide energy that will push the oil up the wellbore to the surface. It also critical that the gas has sufficient energy to “clear up” the well, which involves clearing it of relatively heavy drilling and completion fluid. The previously announced over pressure of the Kuparuk formation created drilling challenges because it was unexpected. However, that overpressure will, in our opinion, favour well productivity.

The UK market showed a continued recovery in the first quarter albeit the indices are still well short of their all-time peaks, unlike many of their international peers. The FTSE 100 has risen by 1,186 points (21.4%) since the end of October and the FTSE 250 by 4,304 points (25.0%). The comparable performance since the start of the year is less spectacular- the FTSE 100 has risen by 253 points (3.9%) and the FTSE 250 has risen by 1,070 points (5.0%). The factors behind the sustained rally are familiar. The belief that the roll-out of the vaccine and some relaxation of lockdown limitations will lead to a significant economic recovery, compared to the collapse seen in the first half of 2020, due to lockdowns. Indeed, the recent economic picture is becoming more optimistic than previous expectations. According to the ONS, the economy grew a little more than initially estimated in Q4 last year. This means GDP for 2020 as a whole contracted by 9.8%, revised up marginally but still the worst contraction on record. Markets, in general, have focused upon the potential scope and extent of the recovery. The sectors and stocks that have outperformed have been seen as ‘recovery’ plays with a rotation from stocks seen as ‘lockdown’ winners into those set to benefit from the ‘unlocking of society’ and/or exposed to the consumer. We expect 2021 will continue to be a “stock-picker’s” market. The sharp increase in the household savings ratio in Q4 highlights the scope for a recovery driven by expenditure. As further lockdown limitations are lifted, evidence of this growth will help to underpin the more optimistic outlook for Q2 and beyond.

JOG has completed the acquisition of a 12% interest in UK licence P2170, announced in Q4. This transaction includes minimal upfront payment and raises JOG’s stake in the Verbier discovery and a number of high-impact exploration prospects to 100%, consolidating its Greater Buchan Area position and simplifying the recently launched farm-out process.

2020 brought a new chapter in the corporate development of Shanta in our view. The company still produced 83koz at an AISC of US$841/oz as per guidance for the third year in the row and did it with a best-in-class safety record. However, they also resolved for growth through the commissioning of Singida and the delivery of a scoping study for the West Kenya Project. They added 14% to the capacity of the flagship NLGM operations (which we believe the market has missed), restored the balance sheet and removed the hedge book. Finally, a maiden dividend was declared. We prosecute the investment case whilst adjusting our forecasts to take into account company guidance and a gold price forecast of $1750/oz. We maintain our Target Price at 30p.

• 1Q21 production was 7.3 mbbl/d, in line with guidance of 7-8 mbbl/d, with production negatively impacted by downtime at the 4H well. A pump has been replaced at the 4H well that has since been producing ~2,300 bbl/d vs 1,872 bbl/dd prior to the pump failure. Production at the end of March had been restored to 8,275 bbl/d. • The 7D deviated well has already been spudded and is expected to take approximately 35 days to drill. • The company continues to expect production to reach 18-19 mbbl/d by YE21. • Following the repayment of US$7 mm payables since YE20 and US$16 mm to Petroperu to settle the derivative liability, the company has ~US$76 mm in cash (in line with our expectations). Of this amount, US$23 mm have been set aside for acquisitions (US$20 mm) and for the hedges that have been put in place (US$3 mm), leaving US$53 mm of “unrestricted liquidity”. • Payables at the end of March are US$37 mm. • PetroTal expects to receive ~US$36 mm from Petroperu as true-up payments for 2019/2020 sales. Delivery on plan is not yet reflected in the share price The company is delivering on its plans and the spudding of the first well of the 2021 programme should send a strong message that production materially increasing again. The shares continue to trade at less than half our estimate of the value of the company based on its 2P reserves only (£0.41 per share @ Brent of US$60/bbl flat). Our Core NAV represents 3.5x the current share price. The shares now trade at EV/DACF multiples of 2.0x in 2021 and 0.8x in 2022.

• FY21 production guidance has been set at 9.2-10.6 mboe/d (below our initial forecast of 11.5 mboe/d) as Pharos’ guidance assumes minimum investment in Egypt with no rig (US$8 mm vs our forecast of US$23 mm with one rig for six month) pending conclusion of the farm out. Pharos’ production guidance for Egypt is therefore only 4.0-4.4 mbbl/d vs our expectations of 5 mbbl/d. • The new fiscal terms in Egypt are expected to be ratified in 3Q21 and a farm in partner is expected to be announced in 2Q21 (with completion of the transaction in 2H21). These are key milestones triggering the return to drilling in Egypt and allowing production in Egypt to triple to 12 mbbl/d. We are very confident Pharos will secure a partner given the renewed interest of the industry for Egypt (Cairn being the latest entrant with the acquisition of onshore assets from Shell). • Once ratified the new terms are expected to be back dated to Nov. 2020, resulting in a material positive impact on Pharos balance sheet on ratification. The company has put in place a working capital facility with the National Bank of Egypt the size of which would immediately increase on ratification. At current oil price, we believe that Pharos would likely have enough financial resources to start a two rig drilling programme until the farm out transaction completes. • As we roll forward our DCF to YE21 and incorporate lower G&A (following salary reduction and ongoing head office headcount reduction), we are increasing our target price from £0.50 to £0.60 per share. More details on the FY20 results • The FY20 financials were as expected as production, cash and net debt had already been reported. • YE20 2P reserves and 2C resources were broadly in line with expectations with a large reserves increase in Egypt more than offsetting a minor reserves reduction in Vietnam on a redetermination of the share of the reserves located on Pharos’ licences (from 30.1% down to 29.6%). • Hedges for 39% of the 2H21 production have been put in place at US$50.8/bbl. • Overall the negative impact of lower production in Egypt and 2H21 hedges are offset by the very low capex. Deep value. Upside. Newsflow. Our Core NAV of £0.36 per share (£0.28 per share) reflects our view of what the company could fund with its own balance sheet once the new terms in Egypt are ratified. Securing a farm in partner would unlock £0.18 per share of value in Egypt, increasing recovery factor a further £0.11 per share. Including the contingent resources in Vietnam, our unrisked NAV for the company’s reserves plus contingent resources is >£0.80 per share. Any exploration success would be additive. Our ReNAV is £0.56 per share.

Diversified Gas & Oil (DGO) has announced that the Company's bank lending group has completed the semi-annual redetermination of the Company's senior secured credit facility and reaffirmed the existing US$425m borrowing base with no changes to pricing, covenants or other material terms. Despite a challenging market and a backdrop of many borrowing base reductions, DGO has once again proved the strength of its production-led long-life, low-decline business model. Elsewhere, the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), in its Short-Term Energy Outlook has forecast Henry Hub natural gas prices to average US$3.04/MMBtu for full-year 2021, a 50% increase on 2020, with gas prices forecast to further increase to US$3.11/MMBtu in 2022.

The Budget offered a clear picture of the state of the economy. Put simply, the economy will be 3% smaller in three years’ time than it would have been without the impact of the pandemic. However, it is forecast to return to pre-pandemic levels by mid-2022, six months earlier than previously thought. The OBR forecasts that the UK economy will grow by 4.1% in 2021, (lower than the 5.5% outlined in November 2020). It has set its GDP forecasts in 2022, 2023 and 2024 at 7.3%, 1.7% and 1.6%. Positively, we have a continuation of substantial support for various parts of the economy – totalling £350bn. The market may focus on two elements. Under the so-called “super-deduction scheme, businesses which invest in the next two years will be able to claim 130% of the cost against their tax bill. This is significant but also significant is the proposed increase in corporation tax on profits from 19% to 25% in 2023. This has material consequences. Looking that far ahead is not straightforward. The increased tax charge will inevitably impact ratings. This may not be a consideration currently but may become one as more FY2023 estimates are introduced. Closer to home, we have continued to see most results/updates in line with expectations. An increasing number of companies have restored dividends. M&A across a broad range of sectors also looks set to continue.

Jubilee operates several chrome-Platinum Group Metal (PGM) operations in South Africa and has recommissioned the copper (and cobalt circuits) at the ‘Sable' refinery in Kabwe, Zambia. Later it will construct a zinc-lead (vanadium) recovery plant at Kabwe in Zambia to process decade old tailings as part of a site clean-up. The company has a growth pipeline identified from new Raw Material projects in Zambia to supply copper units to the Sable Refinery. Jubilee also owns the Tjate PGM project in South Africa (currently on hold). The company model is to treat its own waste materials and to supplement these with 3rd party ores and wastes where possible. The past year was another year of progress, with material growth catalysts expected over the course of 2021. Jubilee has a high-margin business with cash on hand, and we see plenty of opportunities for Jubilee to capitalise on its robust business model and make further additions to its production portfolio. We see fair value at 21p/sh.
