Q: Peter et al.
What do you make of the Premium Placing at $1.05 by Delek in Ithaca for $66 million and approximately 20% of the shares outstanding? Ithaca has moved up in the last month and seemed to be liquid until after the planned Stella start-up in July of next year. They say the funds will be used to reduce debt and for satellite field acquisitions. If used for debt reduction it will not have much affect on the nearly $750M outstanding debt for the huge equity giveaway. If used to acquire future production at a cheap price then I see value but to reduce the debt it will have a marginal impact right now IMO. What is your viewpoint? Am I missing something here.
Regards,
Brendan
