24 Oct 2018capital raising announcement▲ GoodMajor
Strike raised $13 million through a placement of 113.04m shares at $0.115, plus a Share Purchase Plan of up to $5 million at the same price. Funds support West Erregulla-2 and Jaws testing. Settlement meets the UIL bid's capital raising condition. Follows the $3m raise in August.
What it means for a shareholder
113m new shares at A$0.115 to raise about A$13.0m. That's 9.1% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 9.1% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (8,696 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.000774% to 0.000703% of the company. To keep it you'd need 875 more shares - about A$101 at the issue price.

Jaws-1 water production reached 1,300 barrels a day, with pumps below 50% of capacity. Reservoir pressure at the well is about half its original level. Still water only; no gas rates yet.
Jaws-1 is flowing over 1,100 barrels of water a day and rising, with pumps at their lowest settings. Strike reads the productivity trend as a good sign for the pilot. No gas has been reported yet.
Strike raised $3 million via a placement of 28.57m shares at $0.105, a 5% premium to the last close, to four investors. Funds go to Jaws-1 testing, long-lead items for West Erregulla-2 and working capital. This follows the ASX cash query.
What it means for a shareholder
28.6m new shares at A$0.105 to raise about A$3.0m. That's 2.5% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 2.5% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (9,524 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00087% to 0.000848% of the company. To keep it you'd need 249 more shares - about A$26 at the issue price.
Jaws-1 wells are online: vertical pump restarted 31 July and horizontal 3 August, and water is flowing to surface as depressurisation begins. Pumps run at low rates for several days, then ramp up. This begins the production testing expected since June.
ASX queried Strike's low cash ($2.97m, with $3.36m outflows forecast) under the financial-condition rule. Strike replied it is in advanced funding talks, is confident of raising money in time, and has no undisclosed information. Funding was not yet secured.
June quarter: Jaws-1 vertical pump started, horizontal pump pulled for inspection, with 1-2 weeks' delay and 2-4 months of dewatering before material gas. Cash was $2.97m; Strike is in advanced talks to fund 2018 work, and received an adverse ISA finding on its $6.3m R&D claim.
Strike says Jaws-1 data, checked by Igesi Consulting, puts reservoir inputs within its commercial range and it is confident gas rates could support a reserve booking. Fractures averaged 162m half-length with ~1 million lb proppant. Core gas content averaged 5.5 m3/t; gas composition data was unreliable.
Production tubing and electric submersible pumps are installed in the Jaws-1 wells and the workover rig is leaving. Power connection and tie-in to the pilot facility remain, with production testing expected to start in early July.
After the fracture work, early microseismic data is said to show positive indications. Water response rose at Klebb 1 and 2, which Strike infers means connected fractures. An ESP workover rig is on site; wells are still expected online in early to mid-July.
