| Statement |
|---|
| Over the long term, we believe that even though Benchmark is running a robust hedging program, the platform is well positioned to benefit from long exposure in the event the oil and gas markets outperform our expectations, for example, through increased production and reserves relative to how we value the assets or mean reversion in the market discount rates, buyers assigned of such assets |
| I'll speak more about this in a few minutes, but Benchmark is an established entity managed by executives with whom we have a positive history and a team with a demonstrated track record of success across market cycles |
| And then we continue to pursue the strategy, and the team has a pretty good pipeline of incremental opportunities |
| In some of these cases, we are working with people we have partnered with in the past, and we have confidence in their track record of success, much like we did with Benchmark |
| Our Printronix business is operating more efficiently, delivering positive operating income and additional cash flow |
| We're really enthusiastic about the forward motion here |
| We're enthusiastic about the acquisition announced today, which we believe is a good example of the flexibility of our capital and where we're able to find value others are overlooking |
| Our IP monetization business received a favorable jury award in a key patent infringement case related to our Wi-Fi 6 patents, setting the stage for further licensing agreements and [final work], and that verdict is already driving productive conversations |
| AMO recently announced positive initial preclinical data from a study of the use of the company's investigational therapy, AMO-02, in the treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy that showed the strong potential in treating the muscle damage and weakness that occurs with DMD and other muscle-wasting conditions as well as the potential to improve cardiac and skeletal muscle health and function |
| And we remain excited about their prospects, including AMO Pharma, a clinical-stage specialty biopharmaceutical company focusing on rare childhood onset neurological disorders with limited or no treatment options |
| We're very enthusiastic about Benchmark and our partnership with McArron and Kirk and the team at Benchmark |
| And Mark and his team are continuing to execute very aggressively on taking advantage of that opportunity |
| It's the beginning of a platform to take advantage of a market where we think there are incredible opportunities to buy these cash-flowing assets from existing producers that have kind of neglected the assets and from others |
| So we are very enthusiastic about deploying more capital here, but this is not mutually exclusive from our other areas of focus |
| Our pipeline of opportunities continues to grow |
| I think from a tax perspective and from an optimization perspective, we think the buyback is attractive |
| We do think the strategy is very attractive in oil and gas |
| The Benchmark platform specifically gives Acacia access to high-return predictable cash flows while employing a conservative risk management philosophy |
| This results in returns closer to the wellhead than a typical oil and gas company and significant optionality where we can harvest cash flows that are not encumbered by a drilling program and redeploy them either to our shareholders or through M&A |
| We have a significant capital base and we have reduced our fixed costs, so that ongoing operations and interest should cover our recurring expenses |
| And at the valuation of our stock today, I think it's beneficial to our shareholders to own more of that stock |
| And in this case, we're really partnering with a family that's been in the oil and gas business for the last 100 years and has a deep, deep set of relationships and a pretty fulsome opportunity set to continue to grow |
| The Arix transaction, once closed, will add an additional $57 million in returns on top of the $506.5 million we've generated through the end of Q3, and we retain still more value to unlock in these remaining elements |
| The result is lower capital requirements and greater predictability of cash flows |
| We continue to meet willing counterparties' valuations that are accretive for our shareholders |
| Moreover, it further augments our capital base, enabling us to reallocate this capital in new ways, more core to our strategy |
| This familiarity is accelerating efforts |
| Our network of referral sources also continues to grow, and we continue to collaborate closely with our largest shareholder as they provide us with access to their extensive network of industry executives |
| The completion of the recapitalization transactions in July resulted in an incremental $166.8 million increase in book value and an incremental 41.1 million increase in shares outstanding |
| What I would say is those are very interesting to us |
| Statement |
|---|
| Operating loss was $15.4 million compared to an operating loss of $11.4 million in the same quarter of last year with the reduction due to lower revenues |
| Actual results may differ materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties |
| My bad |
| General and administrative expenses, which includes G&A at IP and Printronix, decreased to $13.9 million compared to $15 million in the same quarter of last year due to a decrease in personnel and compensation costs related to reduced headcount and a reduction in Printronix G&A |
| I mean we saw that news, too |
