Here is why I am bullish on BRN here at $0.87: Shares trade at $0.88 with a $12.6M market cap and a planned sale of the Canadian oil and gas business for C$9 Million could provide a catalyst for cash and balance sheet repair.. Compare BRN's 0.2% operating margin and 0.5% ROIC against the rest of Oil & Gas Production. As long as cash conversion holds up, dips toward $0.83 are getting bought.
@RiskArb_Desk Fair point on current EV/EBITDA multiples, but you're ignoring the forward operating leverage in Oil & Gas Production. If gross margin (0.0%) holds, EPS grows into the multiple faster than bears think.
Sitting on the sidelines or leaning short BRN above $0.87. With ROIC at 0.5%, FCF yield at 0%, Altman Z at 0.8, and Piotroski F at 1/9, the rating signals weak cash generation and forensic balance sheet risk.. Until Fundamental Cash Engine (3/20) and FCF yield (0.0%) inflect higher, upside is capped near $1.40.
