Scenario Analysis
Scenario Bull Case - 403p Bull Case (ex expl.) 320p Corporate Event - 277p Events/Assumptions Bull case with exploration success: as below but HOIL also discover c. 200 MMboe from its drilling programme pending (ex. Kurdistan). Bull case excl. exploration success: risks MW cont. res. risked @ 75% CoS & all prosp. resources @ 50%, cash in escrow released, same BD risked value for Russia & risked NAV of exploration prospects. Corporate Event: If we assume a corporate acquirer risks MW cont. res. at a 75% CoS & all prosp. resources @ 50% we get a value of 125p/share (equivalent to $610m or $1.5/boe of cont. resources or $1.0/boe of cont & pros. resources). Expected y/e 2012 net cash plus risking cash in escrow at 50% yields 102p/share. Thus valuing Kurdistan on the basis of an expected sale & assuming cash in escrow has even odds of being released we would have a valuation of 227p/share. As above this ignores all other balance sheet items (BD risked: -11p/share), Russian reserves (BD risked: 27p/share) and the balance of the exploration programme (BD risked: 48p/share). Base case: Work continues but no immediate corporate or drilling catalysts. We set our PT at a P/RNAV of 0.8x. Bear case: If we risk Miran West cont. & prosp. resources @ 25% and Miran East at 15% CoS we get a value of 45p/share. Russian 2P reserves aggressively risked. Expected y/e 2012 net cash plus risking cash in escrow at 25% yields 102p/share. Thus with an aggressively valued Kurdistan & potential cash value we would have a backstop valuation of 155p/share.
