SellSideHandbook.com: "Gross Overriding Royalties (GORR) are royalty interests that are attached to a lease or working interest. The GORR is not subject to expiration or termination as long as the underlying lease is valid – however, if the lease is broken, the GORR is worthless."
ATH has lots of value even if a bigger player doesn't buy it. Any buyer would be encumbered with ATH's GORR I suppose that the same would be true of many other companies up for sale, but a buyer might prefer not to be so entangled when choosing targets. In the end, it boils down to value, including royalties, tax credits and a million other things. Your post is more entertaining than most.
Yes, nobody is half as funny as I think I am. Thanks for clarifying Gorr for those who don't know. I don't get the crack about caps. I'm just some old schmuck banging this out on my Commodore 64. So in other words, as I inferred , the Gorr "situation" really isn't an issue here that could drive potential suitors away. It's more like a "red herring" than a stinking tub of fish.
