Avanti EnergyAVN.VTOP PICKApr 22, 2022Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Jun 19, 2026. Market Open.
Are in helium in Canada and U.S. with 3 successful wells. After drilling, they're now getting that helium to market. A US partner will process the gas. What price will they get? They project $20-30 million which would allow them to drill even more wells. Helium is far more stable than natural gas. he expects a January effect for AVN. Last year, they raised money for production but impatient shareholders sold, and they've seen tax-loss selling last month. It's one of his larger holdings.
Believes large opportunity in Helium sector.
Stable demand for Helium - good for business model.
Management team transitioning from energy sector.
Facility in place to process Helium gas.
Expecting production in early 2024.
Free cash flow expected @ ~$40 million in 2025.
Very under followed/under valued stock.
Very impressed from an operational standpoint. Market has oversold stock. Drilled wells that have been successful (top 3 in North America). Recent fundraising cancelled due to weak share price. Drilling program is risky. Complex financing strategy has put pressure on the share price. Continues to hold shares and likes the company.
Believes that demand for Helium will continue to increase. Existing management team has quality experience. Last well was most successful in North America (have 5 more wells planned in the same area). Major upside for shareholders if wells are successful.
