Editing Pantheon Resources Plc

Pantheon Resources Plc, through its subsidiaries, engages in the exploration and production of oil and gas in the United States. Its primary assets are the Greater Alkaid project that covers 22,804 acres located in Alaska; and the Talitha project covering an area of approximately 44,463 acres. The company was incorporated in 2005 and is headquartered in London, the United Kingdom.

Assuming that Pantheon Resources increases its share of the global oil and gas exploration and production market by cccx to ccc% (from less than ccc%) and other assumptions, the expected return of an investment in the company over the next five years is ccc%, which equates to an annual return of ccc%. In other words, an £1,000 investment in the company is expected to return £ccc in five years time.

The degree of risk associated with an investment in Pantheon Resources is 'medium', with the shares having an adjusted beta that is 45% below the market (0.55 vs. 1).<ref name=":4" />

Accordingly, if your desired annual rate of return is ccc% or less over the next five years and/or one of your goals is to xxx (i.e. you share in the mission of Pantheon Resources), and you are both willing and able to accept the possibility of losing your entire investment amount, then an investment in the company is considered to be a 'suitable' one.

== Operations ==

=== Idea ===
Founded in 2005, Pantheon Resources plc began as a UK-based exploration company targeting onshore USA basins, especially East Texas. However, in 2019, recognising the vast potential of the Alaska North Slope, Pantheon strategically acquired Great Bear Petroleum's assets. This move prompted a shift from East Texas to concentrate solely on Alaska, given its proximity to key Alaskan oil infrastructure and the immense opportunities it presented.

==== Greater Alkaid ====
In 2015, the Alkaid #1 well was drilled close to both the Dalton Highway and the Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS) – the main transportation route and significant export pipeline on the Alaska North Slope, respectively.<ref name=":0">https://www.pantheonresources.com/about-pantheon/projects/greater-alkaid</ref> The drilling was halted before reaching its target depth due to environmental concerns: the nearby Sag River flooding led to the closing of the Dalton Highway.<ref name=":0" /> While Alkaid was meticulously documented, no production tests were carried out then.<ref name=":0" /> The well had shown promising signs, having encountered a 400-foot gross pay without an oil-water contact. Pantheon began activities again in 2019, successfully testing the Primary Zone of Interest.<ref name=":0" /> The recent oil discovery at Talitha #A enhanced the potential for oil in the Greater Alkaid structure.<ref name=":0" />

===== Alkaid #1 Pay Intervals =====
Comprehensive data from Alkaid well revealed a 400-foot gross pay, with 240 feet of net oil pay.<ref name=":0" /> Expert consultations confirmed the potential of this project.<ref name=":0" /> Notably, only a small fraction of the well’s capacity was accessed during the tests. Pantheon projects that optimally designed horizontal development wells could significantly increase oil production.<ref name=":0" /> Advanced seismic imaging indicates even better reservoir potentials in the core.<ref name=":0" /> The company envisions using an early production unit (EPU) to facilitate early cash flow and obtain valuable data.<ref name=":0" /> A full-fledged Central Processing Unit (CPU) is in the pipeline for optimal resource utilisation.<ref name=":0" /> Pantheon is keen to use unconventional oil production technologies, which has become standard across the Alaska North Slope.<ref name=":0" />

In 2020, an independent report on the Greater Alkaid oil accumulation cited 76.5 million barrels of recoverable reserves, valuing the project at $595m (considering a $55/Bbl oil price).<ref name=":0" /> The company plans to commission a pilot test producer in 2022, which could provide immediate cash flow.<ref name=":0" /> Alkaid’s strategic location offers year-round activity advantages.<ref name=":0" />

===== Alkaid #1 Highlights =====
Pantheon secured a unit over Alkaid and outlined its proposed activities in a First Plan of Exploration (POE) in November 2020.<ref name=":0" /> The plan includes reprocessing 3D seismic data and studying potential 'hot-tap' integrations into the TAPS.<ref name=":0" /> Though there are no fixed drilling commitments, the POE proposes drilling two wells near the Dalton Highway for year-round operations.<ref name=":0" /> Depending on the Alkaid #2 well results, the Alkaid #3 well will follow.<ref name=":0" />

GBP, a significant exploration leaseholder, controls over 250,000 acres, positioned south of North America's major oil fields, Prudhoe Bay and Kuparuk.<ref name=":0" /> The region, blanketed by 3D seismic data, hosts several discoveries and promising exploration prospects.<ref name=":0" /> Pantheon holds complete interest in all its ventures.<ref name=":0" />

==== Talitha ====
The Talitha #A well, drilled in 2021, appraised an oil accumulation initially discovered by the Pipeline State #1 well in 1988.<ref name=":1">https://www.pantheonresources.com/about-pantheon/projects/talitha</ref> While the original well in 1988 showed significant oil potential, it was halted due to economic reasons and lack of advanced technology.<ref name=":1" /> However, high-resolution 3D seismic data acquired in 2013 reignited interest in the area.<ref name=":1" /> The Talitha #A well confirmed oil presence across several zones, and recent tests in 2022 further validated the well's promising prospects.<ref name=":1" />

===== Key Findings =====

* The Talitha #A well, located eight miles west of the Dalton Highway and TAPS, identified movable light oil across multiple horizons, with over a billion barrels of recoverable oil potential.<ref name=":1" />
* Its proximity to existing infrastructure offers economic advantages, potentially allowing for faster production ramp-up with minimised capital expenditure.<ref name=":1" />
* The well reached a depth of c. 10,456 ft, revealing five potentially productive zones. Challenges arose during testing due to operational issues and inclement weather, but significant findings were still achieved.<ref name=":1" />

===== Specific Zones and Results =====

# Basin Floor Fan (BFF): Tests indicated quality oil with sustained production rates.<ref name=":1" /> Future developments would potentially be at structurally higher positions for better results.<ref name=":1" />
# Slope Fan System (SFS): Testing showed producible oil, with implications for resource and oil recovery estimates. The success here suggests potential for other areas of the North Slope.<ref name=":1" />
# Shelf Margin Deltaic (SMD): Testing faced challenges from blockages and weather, but earlier data and the success of the deeper zones have kept the company's optimism intact for the potential of this zone.<ref name=":1" />
# Kuparuk: As the deepest oil formation, the Kuparuk provided significant findings.<ref name=":1" /> It's a regional producer with an adjacent giant oilfield, the Kuparuk Field.<ref name=":1" /> The Talitha #A well showed promising signs, although testing encountered issues.<ref name=":1" />

===== Conclusion =====
The data from Talitha #A has increased confidence in the commercial viability of these zones.<ref name=":1" /> Pantheon remains encouraged by the analysis and sees potential for further exploration and drilling.<ref name=":1" /> The discovery augments the prospectivity of adjacent potential oil-bearing structures, which will be explored in future programs.<ref name=":1" />

== Kodiak ==
The Kodiak project, previously known as Theta West, is a significant appraisal project for Pantheon Resources. The project has garnered attention due to its potential to rival the immense hydrocarbon pore volume plays outside the renowned Prudhoe Bay Oilfield in the Alaska North Slope (ANS). Geologically, the Kodiak field can be likened to the deepwater offshore regions in the Gulf of Mexico, West Africa, and recent discoveries off Guyana's coast.<ref name=":2">https://polaris.brighterir.com/public/pantheon_resources/news/rns/story/rmvz29r</ref>

=== Independent Expert Report (IER) Findings ===
An Independent Expert Report (IER) by Netherland, Sewell & Associates (NSAI) on the Kodiak project has provided a contingent resource estimate. The 2C (best estimate) for the Kodiak field stands at a staggering 962.5 million barrels of marketable liquids. This comprises both oil and natural gas liquids (NGLs). The NGLs are of significant value as they can be blended with the oil, yielding approximately 90% of the Alaska North Slope (ANS) price per barrel.<ref name=":2" />

=== Field Development and Infrastructure ===
The Kodiak project spans an area of 126,000 acres, which includes recently awarded additional acreage. The field is defined by the hydrocarbon bearing horizons contained within the large basin floor fan system. This system stretches from the Hue Shale top seal to the underlying HRZ shale. The field's vastness and potential make it one of the largest basin floor fan systems discovered onshore in recent decades.<ref name=":2" />

Pantheon's proprietary 3D seismic data and three wells (Pipeline State 1, Talitha-A, and Theta West-1) have confirmed the field's potential. The company plans to further develop the Kodiak project, focusing on the recently acquired "chimney acreage" and the delineation provided by the seismic data.<ref name=":2" />

=== Appraisal and Future Plans ===
Pantheon intends to drill the next Kodiak appraisal well in the recently acquired leases, northwest of Theta West-1. This drilling aims to encounter a reservoir section with improved reservoir characteristics, potentially yielding higher flow rates and hydrocarbon recovery rates. The company's detailed geological model, which takes into account data from nearby producing fields, supports this approach.<ref name=":2" />

To address the contingencies highlighted in NSAI's evaluation, Pantheon plans to cut full cores and acquire a comprehensive suite of wireline logs and fluid samples in future appraisal wells. This granular data could potentially lead to future increases in recoverable resource estimates.<ref name=":2" />

=== Conclusion ===
The Kodiak project represents a transformative opportunity for Pantheon Resources. With nearly one billion barrels of recoverable liquids, the project's potential is immense. The close proximity to existing infrastructure, combined with the vast resource base, positions Pantheon advantageously for future growth and development. The forthcoming appraisal activities and the company's strategic approach to the Kodiak field further underscore its potential as a world-class project in a prime location.<ref name=":2" />

=== Strategy ===
Pantheon's primary strategy is to maximize shareholder value through the following means:

* '''High Working Interest Maintenance:''' Pantheon retains a 100% working interest through the evaluation process of its assets. This high stake allows the company to have significant control over its projects and potential returns.
* '''Strategic Drilling and Farm-outs:''' The company aims to prove up its assets through targeted drilling. Where appropriate, Pantheon may pursue farm-outs, partnering with other entities to share the costs and risks of exploration and development.
* '''Asset Monetisation:''' Pantheon's endgame is to monetize its assets, either through a sale or other means, at the opportune moment. This "prove up and sell" approach is designed to offer investors a chance to capitalize on high-impact, risk-managed drilling.

=== Team ===
Pantheon boasts a seasoned board and a robust advisory group, all of whom are shareholders with established track records in the oil and gas sector. They have a rich history of building profitable companies for acquisition. Additionally, Pantheon's board and management team have extensive experience with oil and gas operations in Alaska.

== Market ==

=== Total Addressable Market ===
Here, the total addressable market (TAM) is defined as the global market for oil and gas exploration and production, which includes every potential consumer or business that could use or buy oil and gas, and based on a number of assumptions, it is estimated that the size of the market as of today (3rd September 2023), in terms of revenue, is $5.3 trillion.<ref>[https://www.ibisworld.com/global/market-size/global-oil-gas-exploration-production/#:~:text=The%20market%20size%2C%20measured%20by,is%20%245.3tr%20in%202023. https://www.ibisworld.com/global/market-size/global-oil-gas-exploration-production/#:~:text=The%20market%20size%2C%20measured%20by,is%20%245.3tr%20in%202023.]</ref>

=== Serviceable Available Market ===
Here, the serviceable available market (SAM) is defined as the oil and gas exploration and production market in the Alaskan North Slope, and based on a number of assumptions, it is estimated that the size of the market as of today (3rd September 2023) is 3.6 billion barrels of oil and 8.9 trillion cubic feet of natural gas conventional resources, which equates to around $242.7 billion in terms of revenue.<ref>To estimate the revenue from 3.6 billion barrels of oil and 8.9 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of natural gas, you would need to know the prevailing market prices for both commodities. Please note that oil and gas prices can fluctuate significantly based on various factors, so this is a very general estimate.

1) Oil: Let's use an average price of $60 per barrel, which is a rough average for Brent crude over various periods in the late 2010s and early 2020s.

3.6 \text{ billion barrels} \times $60/\text{barrel} = $216 \text{ billion}

2) Natural Gas: Natural gas prices can be more region-specific than oil prices. In the U.S., the Henry Hub spot price is a common benchmark. Let's use an average price of $3 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf) for simplicity, though this price can vary widely.

8.9 \text{ Tcf} \times $3/\text{Mcf} = $26.7 \text{ billion}

Adding these together:

$216 \text{ billion (from oil)} + $26.7 \text{ billion (from gas)} = $242.7 \text{ billion}

So, based on these rough price estimates, 3.6 billion barrels of oil and 8.9 Tcf of natural gas could equate to approximately $242.7 billion in revenue.

However, it's essential to consider several factors:

1) Extraction Costs: The revenue figures above don't account for the costs of extracting, refining, transporting, and selling the oil and gas. These costs can be substantial.

2) Price Fluctuations: Oil and gas prices can fluctuate significantly based on global demand, geopolitical events, technological advancements, and other factors.

3) Taxes and Royalties: Governments often take a share of the revenue in the form of taxes, royalties, or other fees.</ref>

=== Serviceable Obtainable Market ===
Here, the serviceable obtainable market (SOM) is defined as the Alaskan North Slope oil and gas exploration and production market in which the company holds lease licenses, and based on a number of assumptions, it is estimated that the size of the market as of today (3rd September 2023), in terms of revenue, is $ccc billion.

== Financials ==

=== Most recent ===
After the interim results' period end, the company raised approximately $22 million, net of fees, on 16th May 2023.<ref>https://polaris.brighterir.com/public/pantheon_resources/news/rns/story/w03k7zw</ref>

On 15th June 2023, to address its obligations for the senior unsecured convertible bonds due 2026, the company settled a quarterly principal of US$2.45 million and interest of US$367,500 by issuing 15,172,320 new Ordinary Shares. This arrangement reduces the Convertible Bond's outstanding principal to US$34.30 million.<ref>https://polaris.brighterir.com/public/pantheon_resources/news/rns/story/x5zjy8x</ref>

On 7th September 2023, Pantheon Resources plc announced a private placement of 11.9 million new shares at £0.1878 each, raising $2.793 million from IPGL Limited. The amount will be used to cover a bond repayment, making the placement cash-neutral for Pantheon. The new shares, constituting 1.3% of the pre-placement share capital, will be issued around 29 September 2023.<ref name=":12">https://www.investegate.co.uk/announcement/rns/pantheon-resources--panr/private-placement/7740310</ref>

Accordingly, since the company's interim results, the company has raised raise a total of $27.243 million.

== Risks ==
As with any investment, investing in Pantheon Resources Plc carries a level of risk. Overall, based on the Pantheon Resources Plc's adjusted beta (i.e. 0.55)<ref name=":4">Research shows that an investment has two main types of risks: 1) non-systematic and 2) systematic. Systematic risk is the risk related to the overall market, and non-systematic risk is the risk that's specific to an individual investment. Evidence shows that taking on non-systematic risk is inefficient, and it's, therefore, best to eliminate it; and in most cases, elimination is fairy easy to do [by holding a diversified portfolio of investments (i.e. around 15 investments)]. Accordingly, when assessing the riskiness of an investment, it’s best to look at the systematic risk only (i.e. ignore the non-systematic risk). A key measure of systematic risk is beta, and a main way to determine the riskiness of an investment is to compare the beta of the investment with the beta of the market, which is 1. For estimating an asset's beta, in terms of time period, and frequency of observations, the most common choice is five years of monthly data, yielding 60 observations. One study of U.S. stocks found support for five years of monthly data over alternatives. The beta value in a future period has been found to be on average closer to the mean value of 1.0, the beta of an average-systematic-risk security, than to the value of the raw beta. Because valuation is forward looking, it is logical to adjust the raw beta so it more accurately predicts a future beta.</ref>, the degree of risk associated with an investment in Pantheon Resources Plc is 'medium'.

Here, to estimate the adjusted beta, we used the iShares MSCI World ETF to represent the market portfolio; and in terms of the time period and frequency of observations, we used five years of monthly data (i.e. 60 observations in total), which is supported by a study and is the most common choice. The beta value in a future period has been found to be on average closer to the mean value of 1.0, and because valuation is forward-looking, it is logical to adjust the raw beta so it more/most accurately predicts a future beta. In addition, here, we have assumed that for an investment to be considered 'medium' risk, it must have a beta value of between 0.5 and 1.5. Further information about the beta ratings can be found in the appendix section of this report.

The key risks can be found below. For us, currently, the biggest risk to the valuation of the company relates to the ability to adequately source sufficient funding to meet the company’s working capital requirements (i.e. liquidity risk). 

# '''Liquidity Risk:''' The primary liquidity risk is the ability to adequately source sufficient funding to meet the company’s working capital requirements. Funding availability, and hence risk, within the capital markets remains volatile.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Oil & Gas Price Risk:''' Future oil and gas sales revenues are subject to the volatility of the underlying commodity prices throughout the year. Over the past year the energy sector has been impacted by volatility in commodity prices, which may continue to impact the group going forward.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Currency Risk:''' Most capital expenditures for the year (and future years), as well as possible future operational revenues from oil sales were or will be denominated in US dollars. The group keeps the majority of its cash resources denominated in US dollars to minimise volatility and foreign currency risk.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Credit Risk:''' The group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its cash balances. The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the third parties are large banks with a minimum investment grade credit rating. The group’s total credit risk amounts to the total of other receivables and cash and cash equivalents.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Lease Obligations:''' The group leases properties for oil and gas exploration, requiring annual payments. Any default can lead to lease termination, which would adversely impact business and financial operations. Pantheon has actively participated in annual lease sales and secured 40,000 leases in November 2022. These leases have a 10-year life and favorable terms.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Lease Renewal:''' Leases may be terminated if the group fails to meet specific obligations, like timely exploration. Not renewing these leases can significantly harm the business. However, the group has obtained unitisation for certain projects to possibly extend their initial lease term.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Licensing and Permissions:''' The group needs various approvals for developing their leases. Failure to obtain these permissions can hamper the group's ability to operate. To counter this, the group employs personnel experienced in navigating regulatory requirements.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Political and Regulatory Changes:''' Changes in the political environment, particularly in the Northern Slope Borough, Alaska, and the U.S., can adversely affect operations. New regulations or stricter enforcement of current ones can pose challenges. However, Pantheon's projects are on state lands, thus less affected by federal policy changes.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Legal Proceedings:''' The group might face legal challenges that can be costly and can damage its reputation. They engage with legal counsel proactively to mitigate potential risks.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Relationships with Stakeholders:''' The oil and gas sector often faces scrutiny. Failure to manage relationships with communities and environmental groups might adversely affect the group’s reputation and operations. The group endeavors to conduct operations responsibly and legally.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Regulatory Changes:''' Amendments to existing laws regarding oil and gas exploration could adversely affect the group's business. They continuously monitor potential regulatory shifts and maintain relationships with regulatory agencies.<ref name=":3" />
# '''Supply Chain Disruptions:''' Global events, like the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russia/Ukraine conflict, have affected the supply chain and caused inflation. The group plans its operations meticulously and orders equipment in advance to minimise disruptions.<ref name=":3" />

== Valuation ==

=== Absolute Valuation  ===

==== What's the expected return of an investment in the company? ====
The Stockhub users estimate that the expected return of an investment in the company over the next five years is ccc%, which equates to an annual return of ccc%. In other words, an £1,000 investment in the company is expected to return £ccc in five years time. The assumptions used to estimate the return figure can be found in the table below.

Assuming that a suitable return level over five years is ccc% per year or less, and Pantheon Resources achieves its expected return level (of ccc%), then an investment in the company is considered to be an 'suitable' one.

==== What are the assumptions used to estimate the return? ====
ccc

==== Sensitivity analysis ====
The main inputs that result in the greatest change in the expected return of the Pantheon Resources investment are, in order of importance (from highest to lowest):

# The size of the total addressable market (the default size is $cccn);
# Pantheon Resources peak market share (the default share is ccc%); and
# The discount rate (the default time-weighted average rate is ccc%).

The impact of a 50% change in those main inputs to the expected return of the Pantheon Resources investment is shown in the table below.

|Risk-free rate (%)
|4.297%
|Here, the risk free rate is the US 30 year treasury bond, and is calculated as at 3rd September 2023. Research suggests that for the risk-free rate, it's best to use one that has the same or similar maturity to the estimated remaining lifespan of the company. Here, we have assumed that the estimated lifespan of the company is 30 years years or longer, so we have used the longest maturity, which is 30 years.

|-
|Equity risk premium (%)
|7.98%
|Research suggests that for the region of equity risk premium, it's best to use one that is the same or similar to the region of the beta market portfolio. Here, the region of the beta market portfolio is the world/global, so we have used the world/global region for the equity risk premium, and is calculated as at 5th January 2023.

|Cost of equity (%)
|8.69%
|Cost of equity = Risk-free rate + Beta x Equity risk premium.

=== Relative valuation ===
As noted earlier in this report, research suggests that in terms of estimating the expected return of an investment over a period of 12-months or more, the approach that is more accurate is the discounted cash flow approach, so that's the approach that Stockhub suggests using to determine the estimated value of the company (the valuation based on the discounted cash flow approach can be found in the valuation section of this report); nevertheless, for completeness purposes, separately, the valuation of the company is also estimated using the relative valuation approach.

==== What's the expected return of an investment in Pantheon Resources using the relative valuation approach? ====
Stockhub estimates that the expected return of an investment in Pantheon Resources over the next 12-months is 185%. In other words, an £1,000 investment in the company is expected to return £2,849 in one year time. The assumptions used to estimate the return figure can be found in the table below.
