Ann: Suspension from Quotation, page-31

don't think anyone negotiates on the basis of current/historical pricing. there'll always be greater weight to future curves/dynamics - and given lng canada is real / going to operational beyond any doubt, not to mention the couple of other lng projects progressing on the west coast, this would be a huge swing factor in banking that futures curve. current pricing is irrelevant given we aren't looking at producing immediately - what is more important is where the curve is in 2-3yrs and thats sitting at 3-4.50 (vs spot of $2 today) from Jan-25ish (when LNG canada should be ramping up)... every day closer to that start date makes that futures curve all the more real.

at $2/gj this project is breakeven/ish from an NPV perspective (maybe positive with the liquids). at $3-4.50/gj this is anywhere between a $100-400m NPV project. my rough numbers. all comes down to how the bidder looks at this. look at the numbers that were in the peters&co sale flyer at different IRRs (80-370) and that was at a much more conservative gas price curve (July 21 - pre russia). I think fair value (risk adjusted) is somewhere in the middle - say $200m. my 2c worth anyway

now whether a bidder pays that is an entirely different q - why would they when they could lob a bid for the whole co at a 100% premium (20c/$120m mkt cap) and probably get a deal done? that's what we are waiting to see the results of in 3 weeks. my hope is that given glenn has a few mil $ in shares in CE1, he won't give it away for free..
