| BUY | 0.880 | Joanne A. Hruska, CFA | Market thought their debt was too high but with gas prices coming back up, the stock will go higher because analysts are going to increase their natural gas commodity forecasts which will decrease their cash to debt forecasts. | 2008-04-14 | |
| WATCH | 0.650 | Joanne A. Hruska, CFA | Gas weighted. A little too much debt. Has come back a little stronger in the last few weeks. Watch the debt on this one. If gas prices do come back, this one should come back with a vengeance. Wait and see if her theory on stronger gas prices is correct. | 2008-01-04 | |
| WEAK BUY | 1.390 | David Cockfield | Heavily gas weighted. Have done quite well. They are into the deep basin. Costs have hit them. Because they are a junior, they have had problems getting rigs. Have some good prospects. Too risky for him. | 2006-10-05 | |
| HOLD | 1.750 | David Cockfield | Have problems that a lot of juniors and mid-caps have in getting rigs and into the pipelines. A little too early for this one. | 2006-08-30 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.800 | Glenn MacNeill, P.Eng. | Has been a bit of a disappointment recently. Missed their production numbers over the 1st and 2nd quarters. Good management team and some good assets. | 2006-08-23 | |
| HOLD | 1.750 | Fred Pynn | A heavily gas weighted junior producer. At this stage of the game, gas has been all beaten up and we are starting to see positive results. | 2006-07-26 | |
| WEAK BUY | 2.320 | Glenn MacNeill, P.Eng. | Has done quite well recently. There are better performers out there, but this is okay. | 2006-05-16 | |
| WAIT | 2.640 | Wilf Gobert | Doesn't own, but was a lead underwriter for financing in January. Primarily natural gas focused resulting in a bit of a pullback. Very conservative management. Have a few high growth prospects. Expect it to be midyear before there is any increase in pricing in natural gas. | 2006-03-20 | |
| HOLD | 2.950 | Glenn MacNeill, P.Eng. | A cash producer. They own it. It's gas oriented. They are holding on to it. Just a reminder that you need to diversify in energy resources. | 2006-02-22 | |
| WAIT | 2.770 | Jean-Francois Tardif | Got hit pretty hard recently. Their margins are lower than average. When the gas price goes down, lower margin businesses are more affected. On the other hand, this is a small company that is growing fast. Long-term, they are going to be fine. If you are long-term, it is OK to buy but if you are short-term, wait. | 2006-02-15 | |
| HOLD | 3.210 | Joseph Schachter | Just met with management. A very good team. They are making an acquisition, and once that is completed, you are looking at a company that will be doing about 3600 BOE's a day. The stock is trading at reasonable value. | 2006-01-11 | |
| TOP PICK | 3.550 | Brendan Kyne | Recently made a large acquisition of Berland which has good expertise in gas. Should grow some big gas production next year. They could exit next year with gas production of 5,000 BOE’s per day. That puts more than $1 in cash flow. | 2005-12-14 | |
| BUY | 3.550 | Glenn MacNeill, P.Eng. | Good management. Not one of the “A” teams, but is a reasonably good “B” team. | 2005-12-14 | |
