Xcite Energy has further drawdown on equity drawdown agreement


RNS just released from Xcite Energy that it is getting another £5 million from the SEDA (Standby equity drawdown agreement) with Yorkville. No sign of that CPR RNS that we have all been waiting for. Incredible to think that the Xcite share price was where it is today before the December 2010 flow test, which was a break or break for the Bentley field. Mmmm...

  1. My heart leapt into my mouth this morning when I had an email with the subject line "New XEL RNS alert!" - not the one we were expecting, but no doubt it will be with us soon. I've taken advantage of the drift and placed a spread bet.

  2. The CPR is any day now. I was told it was this week but early March is my prediction. By all accounts nothing to worry about. But the key question is 200mm barrels, 250 mm barrels or higher. I am amazed that XEL fell quite so low, but good opportunity to top up that's for sure. The market makers know how to spook the "sheep", its not hard!!
