Some additional information regarding Kaymus Resources that's pretty significant:
Not sure if many people know this, but all the directors/management on KYS-H are the same team working for YGR. Does that mean Kaymus is a side project, or acquisition, or JV partner down the road? Both companies are targeting the Cardium and Viking formations.
When you look at Kaymus, they got a fresh balance sheet and some cash, but doesn't really show off their assets. So why would the Yangarra team even bother. Well despite not mentioning anything on their balance sheet, they in fact have quite decent reserves in comparison to the market cap that they show. Mostly gas based, also some oil, over 500,000 barrels equivalent or just under $15 million USD in value.
From the 51-101 that came out last week:
The Company holds a 100 percent working interest in two proposed oil locations producing out of the Cardium and Viking formations. The Sylvan Lake, Alberta property is located near the town of Sylvan Lake, Alberta in Townships 36 and 39, Ranges 1 and 3 W5M. The Company acquired interest in six sections in the Workman/Twining area, located in township 30, Ranges 26 and 27 W4M. Kaymus holds a GORR interest in six wells and a 100% working interest in one proposed horizontal gas location producing out of the Viking formation. Kaymus currently has no wells drilled in the Sylvan Lake Area.
Kaymus has two gross proposed wells for which it expects to incur abandonment and restoration costs. These costs included well abandonment and surface lease reclamation. The estimated total abandonment and reclamation costs, forecast net of estimated salvage value, under the proved reserves category is $204,900 (undiscounted). The total proved plus probable abandonment and reclamation costs are $357,600 (undiscounted). 100% of such amounts were deducted as abandonment costs in estimating future net revenue of the Company in respect of proved and proved plus probable reserves as disclosed above. Estimated abandonment costs are included in the 2020 Reserves Report as a deduction in arriving at future net revenue.

While we wait for financial results at the end of the month, let us once again revisit what the company has in terms of assets.
From their last MD&A:
1) Oil Leases: The Company holds a 100% working interest in two proposed oil locations producing out of the Cardium and Viking formations. The Sylvan Lake, Alberta property is located near the town of Sylvan Lake, Alberta in townships 36 and 39, Ranges 1 and 3 W5M. Kaymus currently has no wells drilled in the Sylvan Lake Area
- Not sure if anyone is good with maps, but I would be curious to know what wells are currently producing from those formations around our lease. Cardium and Viking formations are well known for good production. The company could easily sell off its investments and drill a well today, or even raise some funds to drill both.
2) GORR's (Royalty Holdings): The Company also holds overriding royalty interests ranging from 10% to 13% on five sections of land, on which are currently five producing wells which the Company acquired on January 15, 2019.
- This is 3,200 acres of land. Given that only five wells are producing, odds are there are likely many more locations to drill on this property. Having 10-13% GORR's is huge when you consider that the industry average rates are usually between 2-3% when you look at junior public companies.
3) Investments: As at January 31, 2022, the Company had working capital of $1,439,257 compared to working capital of $814,778 at July 31, 2021. The increase in working capital is a result of an increase in the value of the investments.
- Very likely that the investments held by Kaymus (unless they were sold in Q3 2022) have gone up in value. Average pricing for oil at the end of January was much lower than today. This is reflected when you look at almost any oil equities. Specifically large caps, which is probably what the board invested in.
4) Outlook: The Company plans to accumulate prospective land in the WCSB and will execute a drilling program when capital markets allow for raising equity.
- The company could be accumulating additional leases this year and plan for a raise, which can bring additional upside potential. Many other micro/small cap stocks are fine with 300-1000 barrels per day. But given the background of the board and the $300 million market cap company they already run (Yangarra Resources), there's a good chance they'll try and acquire some great leases for Kaymus. Raising funds to drill wouldn't be difficult for these directors, given their background in the petroleum industry.
Additional oil/gas reserve + drilling information is available on Sedar.

The ability of the Company to carry out its business plan rests with the ability to generate cash flows from its overriding royalty interests, raise equity, obtain other forms of financing and sale or option of properties.
The Company will require financing to fund new exploration and development programs, new acquisitions and ongoing costs on its current properties. Future funds for exploration and development will be by financing, sale of equity capital or the offering of an interest in its properties to be earned by another party carrying out further exploration or development. The Company proposes to meet financing requirements through equity financing.
