    Part of the reason sunshine gas's shares went for nearly $3 was because they had fewer shares on issue (~310 million for Sunshine, around 1,100 million for Comt Ridge). To me, it would make more sense to look at market cap than share price.

    Comparing Sunshine Gas with Comet Ridge:

    2P (PJ)3P (PJ)Market Cap (Million $)
    1Comet Ridge195411221
    2Sunshine Gas46910971,200 (adjusted*)
    3Ratio2.42.65.4

    So based on Ps, Sunshine were around 2.5 times the size of Comet Ridge, but were valued (at takeover) at around 5.4 times as much. For the market cap ratio to be consistent with the reserves ratios, Comet Ridge's value would need to increase to around $480million, or around 2.2 times what it is now, giving a share price of 44c (a little over @Autosime's estimate, but not miles off).

    While Comet Ridge do have quite a bit of 2C/3C, I believe Sunshine would have had that too (They had significant acreage - 30,000km2, and I think they sold Polaris before certifying any reserves, so there would have presumably been some Cs associated).

    There are a bunch of other differences that make any comparison difficult. Sunshine were targetting pretty low hanging fruit (simpler wells/cheaper/less risk), but CSG was still in it's infancy (more expensive/more risk), and the world is a different place now compared to 2008!

    As always, don't trust people on the internet (i.e. me) and DYOR.
