VeranoParex buys Verano for $198,000,000. estimated BOPD at close = 4,000. That is $49,500/flowing barrel. If you use that same metric for PTA:
6,500 x $49,500 = $321,750,000/600,000,000 shares = $.536/share.
I suspect Parex tried to buy Petroamerica and was rejected so they went to their next choice.
I think if you asked the PTA shareholders if they would accept $.536/share on a buyout or become an acquirer as per the present plan. Today I think the majority would take the buyout. There is no guarantee after we acquire Suroco Energy that we will get any more respect from the market than we are getting at the present moment.
Hege I am not sure what DD you refer to that may shed some light as to why we are presently trading at $.295. The market is just fundamentally not embracing the plan here.
