Tidewater Midstream and Infrastructure Ltd T.TWM

...that when this deal closes, the next step will be to re-absorb LCFS into the new Tidewater. 

LCFS was taken public a few years ago at $15 per share, and for the life of me, I can't see the minority shareholders accepting anything less than that. I won't.

I have to admit, I'm a little surprised at the muted market reaction to this deal. Maybe a few more gas assets have to be dealt out, I don't know. With AIMCO backstopping this company, you would think that as the asset deck is re-shuffled, some dollars ought to stick to our hands as we pick up the new cards.

5-yr chart says it all. 50% upside is nothing to shake a drill rig at, but won't be a home run.  Special dividend from all that cash would have been more reassuring than the overused unlocking SH value schtick.  No complaints on the move, but it's been a disappointing multi-year hold and today doesn't change that sentiment.

There is no room for a special dividend. The balance sheet badly needed this fix, even though it feels a bit like they are selling the furniture to pay the mortgage. That said, I feel more comfortable holding this stock now.
