Experts who have talked about Niko Resources

Comment43.500Michael SmedleyWas a great winner years back when it became a 10% player in Reliance of India’s offshore fields. Has expanded into Indonesia. Executives pay themselves brilliantly. A bit of an awkward one for him.2011-12-13
Comment53.740Jim HuangClaim to fame was their oil play in India. Diversified into a big exploration portfolio in Indonesia and Kurdistan. If they hit something, it could bring a lot of upside to them. Looking at this one very closely.2011-11-14
Comment57.250Laura LauQuite a bit of noise surrounding D6 in India. There is a price dispute from Reliance, the operator, who wants higher gas prices. Has sold some holdings to BP and the Indian government is delaying processing. Drilling in Trinidad now and we'll have to see how that goes. Drilling in Kurdistan did not go well. Just announced a drilling contract in Indonesia, which would be the big upside for them. Very high risk.2011-11-08
Comment54.830Michael SmedleyWent down with the markets and oil stocks at large. Have a huge gas relationship with Reliance in India. Pay themselves very large amounts of money. Very well-managed. Could very well come through with some big discoveries but needs a kick in the pants.2011-10-31
DON'T BUY53.000John O'Connell, CFAWas under investigation. Has a large resource. Wouldn't by any at this time.2011-09-07
WAIT55.740Ross HealyEven that oils are badly savaged, he would not be surprised if we got a rebound in oil stocks generally. But give the expectation of a weakened economy, it wouldn’t surprise him if we had some weakness in oil prices. Don’t bound in too quickly if buying or averaging down.2011-08-31
SELL63.670Laura LauThere could still be some weakness in the stock. NAV is about $40. We'll find out how the Kurdistan well has done in about a month. The big exploration program won't be on till 2012 when they drill in Indonesia.2011-07-05
WAIT72.700Bill Harris, CFASuccessful Canadian company on a global basis. Have discovered some of the biggest finds going. Stock has come off and he is looking at hit actively. His only problem is that in Europe and Russia, Nat Gas sells as a ratio to Oil, rather than market price.2011-06-09
PAST TOP PICK75.350Joseph Schachter(A Top Pick Feb 22/11. Down 11.44%.) In negotiations with the Indian government for higher gas prices. Meanwhile stopped all exploration. Involved in a lot of drilling and you could get good news any day. 2011-05-10
WAIT74.510Mason GrangerQuite a few unknowns with respect to the gas price negotiations with the Indian Government and their partner Reliance Industries. Drilling some really big elephant frontier type exploration prospects.2011-05-04
HOLD82.610Peter HodsonGreat company over the past decade. Great gas discovery in India and great cash flow. Thinking of increasing their interest in some other projects and may need $700-$800 million of debt financing. Has very clean balance sheet and investors are concerned about adding debt and capitalizing on the new development. Also their partner Reliance Industries has gone to war with the Indian government.2011-04-26
HOLD80.570Bill Harris, CFAA company that is this good, he could never get it cheap enough. They just seem to be able to keep hitting these massive finds.2011-04-18
TOP PICK86.520Joseph Schachter(A Top Pick Feb 22/11. Up 2.85%.) India and Indonesia. Have a lot of high impact exploration. Billions of barrels of potential to be drilled up in the next 18 months.2011-04-14
BUY92.020Andrew McCreathOperating numbers in India have been disappointing as of late. Indonesian upside is potentially huge. There are a lot of catalysts on a go forward basis.2011-03-30
WAIT82.000Veronika HirschHave some fantastic drilling prospects but there is no major drilling going on this year. Didn’t make production. Wouldn’t Hold for the next 6 months but would consider Buying towards the end of this year.2011-03-02
HOLD82.600Joanne A. Hruska, CFAGas producer in India. Just had great news that BP (BP-N) was buying into their joint venture. This should add some expertise in the offshore and gas marketing.2011-02-25
TOP PICK84.180Joseph Schachter(A Top Pick Oct 20/09. Down 7.67%.) Big success in India and BP is farming in on their partner Reliance Industries. Also have a massive land spread in Indonesia with high impact drilling, big boy territory. Cash that is coming ion from their success in India is being used with their technology. $150 target.2011-02-22
BUY77.190Martin Hubbes, CFATook a major dip last week, but not sure why. Long term the stock has a very interesting opportunity. Have to find more gas off the Indian coast for the stock to move forward but the probability is pretty good. Have a strong partner in Reliance Energy.2011-02-15
HOLD81.750Laura LauProduction at D6 in India has had some reservoir issues so the stock has fallen. Also has a been a drilling delay on D4 because of their partner Reliance.2011-02-09
TOP PICK98.500John StephensonOffshore India. Reliance Energy is a partner. Gets a fixed price of $4.20 for its gas and there is reasonable expectation that will go up. Largest biggest landholder in Indonesia and are partnering with Exxon (XOM-N) to develop these fields, which could potentially add on as much as $40-$50 a share If Indonesia pans out alone.2011-01-17
HOLD98.000Michael SmedleyHe has held for a long, long time. He would of thought it would have done more on the upside by now. There must be some reason for it, but he has heard nothing about it. There is nothing wrong with it.2011-01-07
BUY104.210Michael DecterHave a lot of news coming on some of their big fields. Elephant hunters but prudent enough to have some good cash flow to support their hunting for big pools. Main prospects are in deep water in India and Indonesia regions.2010-12-31
BUY100.000Andrew McCreathVery expensive on current numbers, production and prospects however, they have massive elephant prospects. Balance sheet is fine and they have a good track record at finding elephants. A Buy and Hold.2010-10-15
DON'T BUY98.820Jeff Parent B. Eng. FCSILost a lot of momentum so far this year. Might want to buy for 1 or two weeks. Break out level is $110. Right now it is range bound.2010-10-08
BUY105.010Michael DecterHave some big elephants they are drilling so if they hit on some of them, they could go up another 20%-25%.2010-10-04
HOLD101.320Peter BriegerDrilling for natural gas in India and offshore Bangladesh. This part of the world badly needs energy.2010-09-21
Comment103.250Michael DecterLooking for the right entry point and will be buying. Would prefer it in the $90-$100 range but will take it in this range.2010-08-26
Comment105.490Michael DecterHad been hoping it would take a dip and he would get it in the low $90's. Likes what they are doing. Elephant hunting and have a good chance and delivering. Have enough cash flow to keep them alive. Thinks it will be a long-term, big success story.2010-08-16
BUY on WEAKNESS104.750Michael DecterRight at the top of his Watch list as there are a lot of good catalysts for it. Would like to get it a little lower. Great exposure to some elephant plays in Asia.2010-07-19
BUY100.350Veronika HirschHas been a fantastic story and exploration potential is still very good. Seems that international stocks want to do better than the Canadian story. Expects there is more to come.2010-07-15
BUY106.410David Burrows(Market Call Minute.) Likes gas and this is one you could take a look at.2010-06-21
BUY103.460Jennifer StevensonScares off retail investors because of price ($103). International play. Current big play is from India. Barely scratched the surface on drilling. Going forward she thinks they will have success.2010-02-16
TOP PICK98.950Greg A. Taylor, CFA, BBAVery good explorer. Has a partnership with Reliance Energy in India on the D-6 block, a massive field. Should start to generate about $7 in earnings next year in free cash flow.2010-02-09
HOLD107.500John StephensonInternationally focused in offshore India. Also building a pretty big reserve base in Indonesia. A little stretched at this level.2010-01-22
TOP PICK90.560Joseph SchachterThere are a number of things they are going to drill on the upside. The big upside is that they are the operator of the play in Kurdistan. There will be a lot of cash flow coming out of India that they can then go and drill 7 or 8 high impact plays. If there is any success, then this stock goes higher.2009-10-20
SPECULATIVE BUY74.990Bruce CampbellAn international oil play. Stands out a little for the high risk play. It is statistically cheap, is exposed to higher prices. There is a little more room for increase in the short term and then there are more projects for the long term.2009-09-15
PAST TOP PICK72.910Joseph Schachter(A Top Pick July 25/08. Down 8.73%.) The D6 play in offshore India is on. Ramping up of the volumes will occur between now and the end of the year. Have a fixed contract for gas at $4.20. Look for an entry point anywhere below $70. (Doesn't own but has other relations with the firm.)2009-08-21
BUY73.350Andrew McCreathThey have had disappointments in a couple of their explorations. Raise lots of money in 08 and starting to spend that money in Iraq and Indonesia. Won’t know for 12 months if any of those initiatives are worthwhile. Too early to judge. He likes it. Would be along term holder.2009-08-18
BUY77.920John StephensonThis is one of the juniors that you can play. Active in India and D6 is starting to produce for them.2009-07-24
BUY78.650Veronika HirschOil/gas in India. Great exploration assets. It is expected to continue to outperform.2009-07-17

SHORT47.250Ken McCordThere are a lot other energy names out there. You need to go to quality and great trading characteristics in this market. The better names are the big integrated oils right now. He would go to Suncor (SU-T), Husky (HSE-T), Imperial Oil (IMO-T) or Petro Canada (PCA-T) right now.2008-12-04
HOLD47.840Veronika Hirsch(Market Call Minute.) Has great assets.2008-11-21

TOP PICK99.390Jennifer StevensonHave a few near-term catalysts. Focused in India. Coming up near term will be the new reserve report due next week. Also D6 block comes on production very shortly and when it hits full production in 6 or 8 months, it will double India's natural gas production.2008-06-19

Likes that they are part of a project with Reliance, the largest company in India, on the east coast of India. We'll be coming on production next year with 2.4 billion ft.³ a day. Largest natural gas project anywhere in the world.2007-08-17

SELL85.890Peter BriegerA terrific story. Mainly natural gas offshore India. Had some difficulties off of Bangladesh. Once the further reserves have been proved up, he is concerned as to how much the governments will allow them to keep. Would recommend taking profits.2007-02-19

Comment58.580Ross HealyNiko's fair market value is $30.00. It is trading 5 times the book value. Does not seem to be an interesting company to be taken over.2006-03-16
TOP PICK50.200Veronika HirschSticking her neck out on this one. They have a couple of disputes in Bangladesh which has resulted in lower production. Growing their production nicely, but they overpromise and underdeliver and the market punishes them for that. She hopes that the price they get for their Indian production will be good and that they get taken over at higher than $50.2006-02-16
