TransAtlantic Closes Equity Offering

Weekly Energy Review (12/03/2009)
"TransAtlantic closed an equity offering where the company issued 48.3 million shares at $2.35 per share. Gross proceeds from the offering were $113.5 million.

Proceeds will be used to fund the company's 2010 capital program, which is estimated to be $115–$135 million and includes the drilling of 53–63 wells. About $75–$77 million is allocated to activities in Turkey, including approximately 45 wells.

We reiterate our BUY recommendation and 12-month target price of US$3.75, which is based on 1.4 times our revised estimate of the value of the company, discounted at 12%.

TransAtlantic trades at 100% of our estimate of the value of the company of $2.72."
