I have some RING. But I have over 200,000 AZRH. I don't know how it can not double or triple before some people start dumping. only 45 million shares out. Float 14 million. Do your own D & D. Not the guys first time around. More up front about what's going on. Then any stock I have ever owned. Good luck on the RING.

[Fredeb]

Sometimes I feel like that. REI has some risk because of its high debt load. If it can manage (reduce) that, it could appreciate quite a bit. It would also benefit from any increase in crude prices.

Yea, middle east is attacking itself !!! Fuel prices should go up significantly for a while until they resolve their crap. Houthis from Yemen attacking Israel AND Saudi Arabia. Syria's oil infrastructure a mess from their "Civil War." The Terrorists that fought in Syria are now targeting Iran. They will probably cause chaos in the other "Stans" and Iraq on their way to Iran. The Taliban and Pakistani military started a war with each other in the past week. Al-Queada, The Muslim Brotherhood, and all of the other Muslim Terror groups are all going to fight for total power and control.

Among the emerging names in the oil & gas exploration sector, Ring Energy (NYSE:REI) looks attractive. REI stock has been subdued in the last few quarters and is trading at a valuation gap. With business developments remaining positive, I expect a sharp rally from current levels of $1.65.

An important point to note is that Ring Energy commands a market valuation of $334 million. In comparison, the oil & gas company has proved reserves of 129.8 mmboe and has a PV10 of $1.65 billion. That puts into perspective the extent of undervaluation.

I also like the fact that Ring Energy has a good track record of production growth. Between 2018 and 2023, the company’s production has increased at a CAGR of 26%. That has been supported by the acquisition of oil & gas assets.

However, it’s equally important to mention that production growth has been associated with an upside in cash flows. For Q1 2024, Ring Energy reported an adjusted free cash flow of $15.6 million. On a year-on-year basis. FCF swelled by 48%. Therefore, with multiple positive business and financial metrics, REI stock is a likely value creator."

Pretty big move for little Ring today. Got up as high as 2.01 but slipped back below 2.00 to 1.99.
If oil can hold for the rest of the month, Ring should have a nice Q3 and attract some attention with their latest acquisition adding a little $$$ and higher oil prices helping the bottom line.

Ring is definitely struggling compared to some of the bigger players. They have good profits and are using their capital wisely but market doesn't seem to care, giving them a 2 p/e while other bigger Permian players get 5+. I have a few shares of Matador and they are doing very well compared to Ring. Bigger players also make better acquisition targets for the really big Permian players. OXY or Pioneer would probably spin off the CBP acreage, even if they were interested in buying Ring's traditional horizontal drilling acreage. There has been a fair amount of consolidation in the Permian as everyone is trying to get bigger to ensure efficient operations. They're not making more Permian acreage so the big boys with lofty stock prices have a big advantage in bidding wars. Not sure Ring has the right acreage to attract the BIG players.

Still, I like their practical approach and the stock is still dirt cheap. Holding and Hoping!

[littlejohn]

REI should have done a small reverse

split, like 1 for10, instead of raising

share count, IMO...

Then with a higher share price, we

could sell some calls with price rallies

and help make up some losses...

The lower share price area isn't drawing

more new investors for that reason...


It's hard looking way up and waiting...

Bought LEAPS over the past couple of weeks. Mature 1/25 with a $1 strike. Bought half at 1.15 and the other half at 1.05. Pretty low premium for over a 1 year time frame. If Oil stays around high 80's, Ring is going to be printing money and should move back above $2 easily. My avg cost is 1.11 so need share price to exceed 2.11 by 1/25 to make a little money.

Also someone posted that sale by Strongholder owners is done. 12.6 million shares were sold on 8/9/23 so that should not be holding back the stock. Next earnings may be the positive shock that this stock needs.

Stronghold owners are selling 12.6million shares to fund a new venture. They announced on 8/9/23. You can see big dip and high volume for two days but not nearly enough to account for 12.6million shares. I got scared about oil and sold REI around 1.75 a few weeks ago. Regretted decision and so happy to buy back during this artificial weakness. Got some at 1.80 this morning. Hoping for more weakness. Fundamentals haven't changed. Biggest problem is mgmt is taking prudent course of action. Drilling low cost wells that don't produce high production volumes but are economically smart. My next buy order is at 1.75. We'll see if REI continues to sag. Volume is still suspiciously low. They must know that they are going to knock the price down. Sooner or later, they have to sell and get the money to move on. Hopefully it won't go too low. 52 week low is 1.68.

[littlejohn]

REI,,, hopefully they maxed out forward natural

gas hedges on Wednesday...

REI should consider discounting their Delaware

Basin property of about 18,000

net acres to reduce debt...

https://www.ringenergy.com/our-operations/delaware-basin

REI has good operations in NWS

and CBP to support their higher debt

after acquisition in 2022 was done and

hold onto the Delaware Basin property...

Economics of reducing debt now with

higher interest cost favor selling it

more than holding it...

REI revolver debt went from about

$280 million at 03/31/2022 to about

$422 million at 03/31/2023...

Around $142 million higher due to

2022 acquisition...


Problem is higher interest rates have

increased the interest costs...

Interest cost of about $3.4 million at

end of 03/31/2022 grew to about

$10.4 million at end of 03/31/2023...

Economics now says there is greater

incentive to price the Delaware Basin

property to sell with the current higher

oil price market...

And that potential sale paid on the

revolver debt would reap compounding

benefits going forward with much lower

interest costs on the debt revolver...
