Tenth Avenue Petroleum: Potential Multibagger
The oil market has recently made a bottom due to a variety of catalysts. First of all OPEC+ has agreed to cut 2 million barrels of oil per day. Russia and Saudi Arabia are set to cut oil production, in defiance of the U.S. Additionally, the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) release is set to end in November 2022, which will cut an extra 1 million barrels of oil per day.
The EIA estimates that the oil market will go into deficit by Q1 2023. As demand is strong and supply is declining, the oil price will move higher.
To ride this oil wave higher, we take a look at Tenth Avenue Petroleum Corp. (TPC:CA).

Shares outstanding are currently at only 40 million shares which gives this company a very tight structure. 20% of these shares is held by management, which has an excellent track record in growing previous companies. They managed to raise $3 million CAD in order to purchase the property from Avalon, the previous operator.
Based on this outlook, the company is trading at close to 1 times future cashflow which makes this oil junior an absolute bargain.
On top of this growth trajectory, there are additional joker cards that add even more growth. First of all, with the acquisition of the property from Danzig Resources Ltd., they also bought a 35% stake in a gas well which has a potential to produce 700 boe/d of gas. The 35% stake would add an additional 250 boe/d production to the company. Second, the Swan Hills property is showing a decline in growth from the chart above, but the company actually thinks this could increase by using increased water flow injection. Last but not least, the entire infrastructure is already in place, which should decrease the cost per boe produced with each new well going in production.
To conclude, I wish to mention some caveats to this bullish thesis. The company is increasing water injections as part of its growth program. Similar projects have had problems with water coning due to too aggressive increases in water injection rates which lead to a fall in oil production. Other than production problems, the company could also face headwinds from the oil price due to a possible recession. I estimate that the company won’t be able to turn a profit below $50/barrel. Last but not least, the company’s reserve estimates are not that large spanning 5-8 years. Any drop in reserve estimates could hamper its future growth.
