Sea Lion thoughts and Ombrina Mare

Key for Rockhopper (RKH), at a recent results presentation Premier Oil’s (PMO) management talked about progress being made for Sea Lion’s development and the options that are currently being explored. The turbulent macro environment and PMO’s financial difficulties have slowed Sea Lion’s progress, but these comments suggest increasing options to develop the asset. For RKH, we examine a number of possible scenarios for sensitivities (vendor financing, export credit approach, flexing of fiscal terms), although we leave our baseline approach and valuation broadly unchanged until news is more concrete. Our core NAV remains 73p/share (although a number of estimates change within this), representing material upside for investors as and when Sea Lion’s development moves forward.
