WHEN YOU COME TO A RED FORK IN
THE ROAD, TAKE IT; INITIATING WITH
A BUY RATING AND A$0.94 PT
Investment recommendation
Red Fork controls ~75K net Mississippi Lime (ML) acres in Northern
Oklahoma, most of it in the oil prone area east of the Nemaha Ridge.
Assumed liquids of 77% assigned in the 3P reserves report is consistent
with actual production results observed to date. With production growth
on the verge of accelerating, we initiate coverage with a BUY rating and
A$0.94 price target.
Investment highlights
? The company is highly levered to the ML play and has a lot of
running room ahead of it. Only 41 of the 248 net ML development
locations identified to date have had 3P reserves attributed to them.
While a good part of the play has a mix that is over 50% natural
gas, RFE’s wells have been coming on production at 70%+ oil.
? RFE is bringing on a fourth rig in mid 2013, which will better allow
it to both hold its existing acreage position within the lease term
and accelerate production. We are modeling ~250% production
growth in both FY13 and FY14. Additional upside potential exists
from the Woodford Shale, which lies just below the ML.
? In addition to cash of $36.8M at December 31, 2012, the company
recently announced a new $65M reserve-based lending facility with
an initial borrowing base of $20M. This is an important milestone in
our view for RFE at this stage of its evolution.
Valuation
Using a NAV-based methodology, our A$0.94 price target is based on a
20% discount to an A$1.17 NAV.
