Few weeks ago I completed selling 90% of my $AR (& all my $oxy( & moved 1/2 to $btu (at sub $3 & $7.2) & the other to an unnamed energy stock.Ive been asked incessantly what the name of that security is.Before revealing it, I’d like to make some housekeeping items out of the way
As mentioned in my pinned tweet, nothing i say should be construed as investment advice. Do your own due diligence & seek a financial advisor if the investment is for you. Secondly, given the recent string of successes & the likely mean reversion in my track record, shorting
This name may be the better outcome. With that being said, although for long time followers, they may say i had mentioned this before, i never owned more than an extremely tiny allocation and post my $ar sales i have super sized it such that i allocated 2x what i allocated to
$btu at the lows in March. I think this could be a multi bagger- along the likes of $ar in spring of last year (which gave me close to a 10x return). This name could be even larger. But its not without risk so if you are going to invest, size accordingly. There is not a 0 chance
This could be a 0 too. However I’m willing to take the risk given my extremely positive outlook for oil given the extreme underinvestment and where i think oil prices will have to get to. Finally $PANR massive u/p vs $OXY esp given drill results has convinced me to MACSIZE IT now
Thesis to buy Pantheon Resources ($PANR LN, $PTHRF) I think buying panr could be a very large multibagger which has been misunderstood due to a combination of 1. Largest insider selling (Farallon) due to historical relationship with great bear (the company merged into PANR)
whereby the creditfund is just selling equity to repay the debt. 2. Misunderstood retail sentiment from recent drill results.
Website of Pantheon Resources which has all the info : USA Oil and Gas Exploration > Pantheon Resources Plc > Home<pantheonresources.com>
Summary : 700 million fully diluted shares at 50pence/share = USD $480 million market cap. ( zero debt). They are a Alaska North Slope Oil Exploration company. They have 160,000 acres of land. The wells are very close to the Dalton highway and the TAPs pipeline, so its right next
to critical infrastructure. Also attached is a snapshot of all the resources , the Oil in Place and recoverable barrels. The numbers are incredibly big (20 billion barrels OIP, 2.7 billion barrels recoverable, 35 API oil ). Also important to note that the
First well Alkaid they drilled and flow tested March 2019 and it was a successful well. Independent Expert Report from Lee Keeling & Associates was provided in Jan 2020, which says 76 million barrels recoverable resource, NPV10 $600million at $55 oil price, $8.50 NPV10
per barrel, peak flow 30K Barrels per day; The Oil In Place is 900 million barrels, so 76 million barrels recoverable oil is very conservative. press release link :
The 12 billion barrel (oil in place) well is Theta West which is referenced as one of the 5 zones drilled in Talitha. The zone that is reference is called the Basin Floor Fan zone which is then been renamed to Theta West.
The 12 billion barrel well was announced on May 17th. The link below is a short interview discussing the results. The recoverable oil is estimated at 1.4 billion barrels and classified as Contingent Resource.
1. Since the nav table came out, the Talitha kapurak value is now a question mark given low flow test-
however this value is more than offset by the much larger resource at
2. Tetha west which has seen OIP from 11b to 14b and net best resource (MMBO) from 1.2b to 1.4b
In addition, oil search paid 5$ a barrel for pikka a few years ago despite it being far away from
the infrastructure which tells you what
The potential value of all this could be. Just out of context despite proving up tetha west with a huge resource stock has gone up ten % from 45p to 50p since oct last year (same time OXY has 3x). The Dropbox (dropbox.com/s/mta7senpmx7h… )
has a good discussion of the history of PANR (up to April prior to this most recent test) as well as some of the other players in the area. Also as i tweeted the variant perception chart day before, this is the time to be long OIL RESERVES. PANR has oodles of it.
The final reason the stock has underperformed has been Farallon selling- with the latest sale of tax credits by 88E there is speculation that Farallon may stop selling which is why the stock has run up so aggressively in the past few weeks. Either way, with this
Humongous resource with billions of barrels of oil, sub $500m mkt cap,close to infrastructure, and in politically safe climate, & with my view on where oil is going, i could see this going to 5-10 pounds/share . Not without risk but this is why i sized it 2x my original btu posn
(given the massive run up in btu, btu is still much bigger
& I haven’t sold a share in $pdn, $age $Btu $am etc to fund it. After all i see btu going to 30, and I’m super bullish uranium given Sprott launch & d/s gap. It’s all come from $AR & $OXY. By the way if you are going
to buy the otc adr its super thin & be wary of the premium youre paying - best liquidity is in the UK PANR line- i trade it with IBKR. Thanks

$AGE Great update by @PrudentInvest1 In addition the market is forgetting about the massive potential in ARUP (alligator River Valley) which is home to the ranger mines (they have the 2nd biggest tenament) and Big lake- which is conducive to ISR mining. I dont normally traffic
In such small names but from speaking to Greg Hall who joined the company in ‘18, he has done a # of acquisitions, taking a sleepy company with a string of well thought out acquisitions. The
Mgmt team is 1st class with Peter McIntyre & John Main (substantial $AGE shareholders/directors) that took extract from 30c to $8.65 in the last cycle. Insider ownership at 23%, a hungry & extremely competent mgmt team- esp in a sub $100m mkt cap that would rival any of the bozo
$pdn. I feel the naysayers on paladin never seem to give up. I recall a hit piece by @mikontwitti/@crux not that long ago in oct 2019 (stock was 9c & fell to 7.5c) which at the time a lot of folks on twitter thought was brilliant. (Tgt px 5c i believe) . I defended the stock
Then & along with @SachemCove & @SegraU3O8 we each took turns (we were all together at a Nuclear conf) & over beers each bought millions of shares of $PDN on the cheap- thank you Mikon (I’m blocked by him fyi). So now moving on to this analysis .
Ill make 3 points 1. The EV did not change due to this deal. 2. If you think that Uranium which has been under supplied for years and has a monster shortfall will just go to $55 well then go sell it. On yesterday’s panel Dustin Garrow/@FootnotesFirst talked about uranium going to
$PDN $PALAF. I did not want to tweet about pdn until i spoke with the ceo- Ian Purdy which i did last night. This deal is totally transformational. (Much like when $ar raised money which dropbox.com/s/p2t05wnhzcn0…
Was a s-t hiccup but stock more than 3x a short 6 mos later. I would say the #1 concern on pdn has been the debt overhang which has now been cleared. In addition this allows them as stated in their news release to go slower in signing contracts and not contract Uranium at sub
Optimal prices (SORRY UTILTY BUYERS LOL). Ian will be putting every single $ he has ever earned from PDN into the deal at 37c - this is not like some Uranium cos ceos that earn $2m a year,wear expensive suits and have their stock px go up 30% for buying 400k lbs of U and promote
Inflation- a thread. I think a lot of people look at inflation but dont realise that many of the structural forces over the past decade have changed. @BvddyCorleone has already today done a phenomenal thread on energy and why long term supply discipline in place will result in
Higher energy prices. The lack of commodity investments in scores of other industries- be it Uranium, Ags, Copper etc all indicate that we will have rising commodity price inflation for years to come. But this is not all there are other less understood forces at play.
@DiMartinoBooth weekly piece this wk did a great job showing how exceptionally generous fiscal support for a mother of 2 kids (one over 7,one under 7) leads to a real unwillingness to enter the labor mkt
Phenomenal thread.I agree fully that the old playbook has changed and oil companies are too focused on paying down debt and being rewarded by investors as opposed to drilling more. This is important and clearly that would have +ve cyclical ramifications for energy to do well. BUT
I’d add that there is a labor market hysteresis focus by Yellen and the Fed whereby in many of their speeches they have focused extensively on stimulating to maintain full employment-ie the benefit of maintaining full employment numbers is far
Better than that of any inflation. In fact even Brainard mentioned that the we need to accommodate inflation and not react in a Phillips curve framework. Couple this exceptional fed monetary looseness + fiscal stimulus galore- ask yourself will the Dems allow next year to have a
#Uranium, $PDN $PALAF. Ive been giving it a lot of thought on the next stages of the Uranium moves. So clearly the move up in equities vs a spot px that has been languishing has caused many of the older hands some consternation. I think partly this has been caused by a huge
Outperformance in energy equities causing a need to reallocate funds from funds that are short/underweight energy coupled with a ESG problem. See below that according to JPM there may be $22bln that needs to flow into energy. As such money is flowing into many deals given
Nuclear is perceived as ESG compliant. Now this is +ve and i would think its only a matter of time before the uranium holding cos URPTF, Yellowcake which are now trading at premiums to NAV issue equity and soak up some of the spot driving prices higher. I believe this will
