Unexercised Options

Both Suresh and Lacy have done the right thing and opened their personal wallets to purchase CGX shares via their granted options. Even though neither has any clue as to the actual final outcome of Wei-1 at the moment, they at least showed some courage and did the right thing. 

Let's see if everyones favorite hero De Alba does this same thing... he holds over 1,500,000 options at $0.71 exercise price. Be nice if he actually showed some guts and put his money where is mouth is... its easy to, but will he do it for once? If Suresh can do it, surely this guy can as well. 

In fact, a lot of insiders hold tons of unexercised options. I just pick on De Alba because he has inserted himself as the master of everything in CC, Frontera, CGX and has done a awful job in all three in my opinion over the past 5 years (though I know many disagree). He wants to show the CGX is legit... well, join Suresh and Lacy and put up some personal money... he's been soaking both Frontera and CGX for years from a compensation perspective, so its not like he doesen't have the cash!

It's nice to see some of them step forward but they are all discounted prices. If they want to show some balls start buying at market prices..the same price WE are paying

Taal, i quite agree....i will say this, i agree it would be great for DeAlba to also exercise SOME of his options....but its not my money he's spending and u r correct taal, especially if he doesnt have to!  I also do not know his financial personal status right now.....is he a millionaire?  Multi?  Or in debt?  I am sure WCP knows.....NOT!! :)  The who that is really ...more

What kind of blithering nonsense are you talking about Stark?  Your telling me Lacy knows more about upcoming well outcome than De Alba, and hence that is why he made the conversion of shares? If that is the case, then what in the living hell is De Alba doing in these JV talks with other companies or discussions with government officials? He should know just as much as Lacy and be able to ...more  
Comment by stark15 on Feb 02, 2023 12:51pm
So i guess you dont understand english?  Where did i say Lacy knows MORE than DeAlba?  Point it out mr clueless....i added about Suresh, WHO KNOWS! talk about blithering nonsense, your post is a GREAT example......didnt address my post at all.... try to READ posts and understand BEFORE you respond with gibberish.....
Comment by westcanpride on Feb 02, 2023 1:06pm
So in other words Stark, just so I am clear (because who knows, maybe I am missing the point), De Alba is the genius for putting up no money and thus assuming no risk at the moment? He is therefore the genius for letting Wei-1 play out and having no up front skin in the game? If the well is successful, he can convert this summer... and if its a fail, and CGX stock tanks, he can then walk about ...more

WCP, it is YOU that keeps using words like 'hero' or 'genius' when it comes to DeAlba?  YOU keep saying that....me, i just give him more credit for getting us where we are than u do. LOOK & READ my posts....post ANY comment where i said he was my hero or where i said he is a genius??  You wont because u cant find them. Why should Lacy and Suresh take the risk ...more

We have no idea anyone's financial status on this planet, let alone CGX insiders.  You blast me for being a "fool", "idiot", etc... yet, you seem to be one of the few who get super uptight around my posts. If I truly was wrong in my thought processes/ideas, you wouldn't have to resort to weak arguments like De Alba's financial status in life for not making ...more  
Comment by stark15 on Feb 02, 2023 2:34pm
The only point u have is on the top of your head..... Do you know how valuable those other blocks are?  No, but we KNOW the Corentyne has HUGE potential and already has value with Kawa.... Weak argument?  From you i'll take that as a complement, lol  You are covering for the FACT that you dont know.....u just 'throw' out misinformation to support your negative slants.. ...more  
Comment by westcanpride on Feb 02, 2023 3:07pm
So you just outlined all the reasons someone like De Alba should be converting his options into CGX shares....!  Not sure I would be bragging about soliciting advice from folks online to confirm your bias that Kawa-1 will be a gusher. Maybe if you actually pointed out technical rationale and your understanding of 3D seismic, reservoir stratigraphy, deep water depositional environments, fluid ...more

Question Stark. How do u (you) decide 2 (to) use you (u) or u (you) when u (you) r (are) posting? Lmao.  Fwiw, I like the option exercises (as long as they don't sell). It's just simply bullish (tax implications aside, Miftee lol) imo. I'll sell when they do. Glta
Comment by Kelvin on Feb 02, 2023 1:55pm
Ah c'mon wcp. We're all opportunists at heart. So what if de Alba is better than most at it. Are his interests aligned with yours or not? Stark has been arguing that they are.  I don't understand what you think that he needs to do in order to convince you. From the long's point of view CGX would have died after the Eagle-1 and Jaguar train wreck. Pacific Rubiales, now ...more

Here here ...Lacey is a standup guy.    Frontera and cgx are as good a gamble as I have seen in the oil patch ....I am very impressed by the control over the shares ... vulture over and out for now 
Comment by Kelvin on Feb 02, 2023 12:58pm
Good points wcp. Let me take a stab at this with my less than impressive math, deductive skills. Out of the set of people who own options, what does the subset who chose to exercise options have in common? Maybe they want to retire after Wei and want to lock into what they feel will be a recurring source of revenue. The others don't need to. Is that a plausible explanation? As for de Alba ...more
