Management

Personnel
"As at December 31, 2020, Valeura had seven full-time employees in its head office in Calgary, as well as 12 full-time employees in its office in Ankara, Turkey and 52 employees at its field office in Tekirdag, Turkey."

When they close the sale it is reasonable to assume that G&A will be lower going forward.  Plenty of people there for this micro-cap soon to have no production. 

Management had better not be lining up to the bonus trough (like they did last year for $422K) because results in 2020 were a non-event.  With the high G&A, robust management severance contracts, lack of deal activity, re-priced options et al, cashed up, this Co needs to get it in gear.

Interesting that the VLE Chairman, T. Marchant, is also a Director of TransGlobe which actually has significant assets in Egypt.

Agree, any management bonus for 2020 would be unconsionable based on the results achieved. TransGlobe would be a potential merger fit with VLE, and Marchant maybe the link that brings it together? Sirenus was mentioned as a potential third party to a transaction. Any others? VLE: cash rich with an option on a high risk/high return opportunity. TransGlobe: good production/cash flow and good ...more

It would be funny to see a director of VLE who also owns transglobe use shareholders funds to enrich himself by selling transglobe to VLE, especially considering Egypt is extremely unstable and it would be far less risky just to complete the deep assessments that investing is terorst haven where all could be lost in no time However, that's how Canadians do "biznezz" LOL..rip off ...more

VLE has zeros out with no achievements in last year with all those employees and highly compensate London power players....it's very embarassing for all those people they need to deliver or bail just to preserve their reputations....if they have any in the first place. Maybe they are all just c rated blood suckers and they are proud of getting something for nothing hahah.

They all know that after losing Equinor and failing to use the cash to prove the deeps they won't get another cushy job anywhere else so it's best to be arrogant citing the cash, do nothing, run a pip squeak shallow production op to pay the salaries forever. I have lost all confidence tat they have any integrity and while I used to thing this was a great management team it turns out they ...more

The waiting is getting old. Waiting for the sale of assets to close, waiting for a partner to be found to drill the deep, waiting for the company to use the +- $US50,000,000.00, that they boast about so often, to put a substantial deal together that is materially accretive. The oil and gas industry was out of favour, a great time for a cash rich company to buy, and no deal was done. The industry ...more
