RE:Rising Interest Rates And DEBT-FREE Energy Companies

RE:Rising Interest Rates And DEBT-FREE Energy CompaniesWell said arizonabound. Some investors realize that owning heavily indebted energy firms is very risky amid rising yields.

It seems that some prudent investors who were burned by indebted companies start to worry about the rising interest rates and the indebted firms, so they look for debt-free companies.

Meanwhile, VET acquired Spartan Energy a few years ago and the same management team created debt-free Spartan Delta (SDE) in 2020.
 
So SDE is new, unknown and debt-free with surplus.
 
SDE is natural-gas weighted with about 30,000 boepd.
 
SDE announced another deal two weeks ago and new guidance for 2021 bringing its production to about 36,000 boepd for 2021. 
 
SDE currently is debt-free with surplus of C$35 million, facts below:

Proforma recent deals, SDE will remain debt-free by the end of 2021 with a surplus of CAD$54 million, facts below:

So debt-free SDE must have the strongest balance sheet while being the most undervalued Canadian nat gas weighted producer trading less than C$9,000 per boepd and just 2 times its annual cash flow.
 
Insiders own about 25%.
 
SDE's management team has an impeccable pedigree with very high returns from their previous 3 companies, Spartan Exploration, Spartan Oil, Spartan Energy sold to VET.
 
AECO will also remain very strong in the next weeks and months.
 
My two cents.
