Insights
Epsilon's acquisition of Peak assets significantly expands reserves by 150% while maintaining conservative capital structure and supporting dividend growth.
Epsilon's transformative acquisition of Peak's Powder River Basin (PRB) assets represents a well-structured transaction with clear strategic merits. The company is acquiring 40,500 net acres in the PRB core for 6 million shares plus assumption of $49 million in debt, with potential additional consideration based on regulatory outcomes.
The valuation metrics are particularly compelling. At Epsilon's 10-day VWAP of $6.21/share, the deal values the undeveloped acreage at just $1,100 per acre or $340,000 per priority location - pricing that equates to PDP PV15 + PUD PV25 values from third-party reserve reports. This represents attractive pricing in the current market for quality assets.
The acquisition significantly enhances Epsilon's scale and operational diversity. The Peak assets add 2.2 MBoepd of production (56% oil), increasing Epsilon's pro-forma production to 47 MMcfe/day. More impressively, proved reserves will grow approximately 150% to 213 Bcfe, with the oil component rising to 39% of reserves versus the company's historical gas-weighted portfolio.
What's particularly valuable is how this deal addresses Epsilon's historical lack of operational control. By adding 111 net priority locations with high working interests and assuming operational control, Epsilon gains direct influence over capital deployment and development timing. This represents a structural improvement in the company's business model.
The deal's structure preserves Epsilon's balance sheet strength while providing board representation for Yorktown Energy Partners, an experienced PE firm with deep energy sector expertise. Management clearly signaled the commitment to maintaining the dividend, which should reassure yield-focused investors concerned about capital allocation priorities.
While Q2 results showed mixed operational performance with production slightly down sequentially and the

Jason Stabell, Epsilon’s Chief Executive Officer, commented “This is a key step forward for the company. We are acquiring a large under exploited asset at an attractive price. The acquisition brings additional balance to our portfolio and importantly, provides both control of the investment cadence and increased optionality to deploy capital for our shareholders as conditions warrant.

Adjusted EBITDA | $ | 7,396,117 | $ | 3,903,632 | $ | 18,005,037 | $ | 8,498,642 | ||||||||||||
Epsilon defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before (1) net interest expense, (2) taxes, (3) depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion expense, (4) impairments of natural gas and oil properties, (5) non-cash stock compensation expense, (6) gain or loss on derivative contracts net of cash received or paid on settlement, and (7) other income. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance as determined under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for net income or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.
Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Epsilon has included Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because its management believes that EBITDA provides useful information regarding its ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures. It further provides investors with a helpful measure for comparing operating performance on a "normalized" or recurring basis with the performance of other companies, without giving effect to certain non-cash expenses and other items. This provides management, investors and analysts with comparative information for evaluating the Company in relation to other natural gas and oil companies providing corresponding non-U.S. GAAP financial measures or that have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, measures for financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
