- Tuesday, April 30, 11:19 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK), moving forward from controversies and focusing on its core natural gas business, leads the list of U.S. oil and gas E&P stocks Jefferies thinks will exceed Wall Street earnings estimates. The firm's other top energy picks: CLR, DVN, EOG, GPOR, MTDR, OAS, PVA, SFY. 1 Comment [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Monday, April 29, 10:20 AM Southwestern Energy (SWN +4.2%) agrees to buy 162K net acres of natural gas properties in Pennsylvania's Marcellus Shale from Chesapeake Energy (CHK -0.3%) for ~$93M. Current net production from the properties is ~2M cfe/day from 17 gross wells; when the deal closes, SWN will possess ~337K net Marcellus acres. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Saturday, April 20, 9:05 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) will allow ex-CEO Aubrey McClendon to acquire oil and gas holdings adjacent to CHK's wells in which he is a part-owner, altering the terms of an earlier agreement. CHK will pay McClendon nearly $50M in severance and allow him the use of a company aircraft. The relaxed terms ought to come in handy as he opens a new energy business a half-mile from his old office. 17 Comments [Energy]
- Tuesday, April 16, 10:17 AM The rush to buy acreage in Ohio's Utica shale has reversed, as some of the biggest stakeholders in untapped deposits there - including CHK, DVN, PDCE and EVEP - have put up all or part of their acreage for sale. Early drilling results have showed the oil portion of the Utica isn’t as porous as some other shale formations and is shallower than its gas-filled areas. 4 Comments [Energy]
- Friday, April 12, 6:57 PM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) avoided any fines related to a drilling accident in Wyoming last year that resulted in residential evacuations and the release of pollutants into the environment. Some residents are unhappy with the light treatment, but the head of the state agency responsible for overseeing oil and gas drilling says "accidents will happen." 9 Comments [Energy]
- Thursday, April 11, 8:08 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) scored a legal victory yesterday when a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit alleging it misled investors by not disclosing certain liabilities and the personal loans of former CEO Aubrey McClendon. The ruling doesn't signal an end to litigation against CHK, but it is the first to reach a result in at least a dozen lawsuits that make similar claims against CHK and its executives. 1 Comment [Energy]
- Tuesday, April 9, 5:17 PM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) is putting up for sale more than 94K net acres in the Utica shale in Ohio, nearly 10% of the 1M net acres it owns in the formation. The land for sale includes three wells, two of which CHK operates. CHK says it is seeking to sell the land to focus on its other Utica holdings. 2 Comments [Energy]
- Monday, April 8, 7:43 AM Chesapeake Energy Corporation (CHK) declares $0.0875/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous. Forward yield 1.77%. For shareholders of record Apr. 15. Payable Apr. 30. Ex-div date Apr. 11. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]
- Monday, April 8, 3:00 AM After saying for two years that it planned to sell its 30% stake in fracking company FTS, Chesapeake (CHK) reportedly intends to keep hold of the asset. The stake was once worth $2B but has fallen in value, hurt by FTS's heavy debt load and a slowdown in gas drilling. Comment! [Energy]
- Friday, April 5, 11:51 AM A buyer's market in oil and gas assets means companies relying on asset sales to strengthen their balance sheets may have to sell more than they intended or take on expensive financing, Jefferies' analysts say. Among those most exposed to the weakness due to funding shortfalls or levered balance sheets: CHK, FST, NFX, SFY, XCO. 3 Comments [Energy]
- Wednesday, April 3, 3:12 PM The Forensic Accounting ETF (FLAG) drops Nike (NKE) and Wal-Mart (WMT) from its portfolio, giving each "F" rankings based on its forensic accounting model. Other "F's" include SNI, XLNX, MOS, and TIF. Those garnering an "A" include CHK, HES, EA and AKAM. Since its Feb. 1 inception, the ETF has matched the S&P's performance. 2 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, April 3, 9:00 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) was fined $765K late yesterday by the Department of the Interior for misreporting oil and natural gas sales volumes on royalty reporting forms from May 2011 through July 2012 related to leases in Oklahoma. CHK says the payments at issue totaled less than $500 and intends to request a hearing on the civil penalty. Comment! [Energy]
- Tuesday, April 2, 3:41 PM As Chesapeake Energy (CHK -2.1%) plans some spring cleaning of its portfolio with the hopes of raising $4B-$7B this year, Wells Fargo analysts say CHK’s 20% stake in Chaparral Energy is probably worth ~$280M, which would represent a nice gain from the $178M paid in 2006. Much of the proceeds CHK hopes to raise are expected to come from various small assets, and Chaparral seems to fit the bill. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 2, 9:51 AM As big energy firms buy out smaller rivals in the Marcellus Shale, one side effect is an improving environmental record, according to a WSJ analysis. XOM, CVX and RDS.A average 38 violations for every 100 Marcellus wells drilled; the smallest companies average 132 violations per 100. Experts say this is partly due to the energy giants' financial resources and more rigorous safety protocols. (also) 1 Comment [Energy]
