Battalion (BATL) terminated its merger with Fury Resources after Fury failed to deliver equity financing and close. The Dec 27, 2024 special meeting was cancelled.
Why it fell apart
-
Fury “was not able to meet the obligations and close.”
-
Multiple amendments were made over the past year.
-
Preferred holders (Luminus, Gen IV, Oaktree) had agreed to contribute their preferred into Fury, but Fury still couldn’t evidence the additional equity needed.
Ops update (what matters)
-
Monument Draw: new 2-well pad is ahead of plan on cycle time and budget.
-
Vermejo wells: came online; IP30 = 1,211 Boe/d, 84% oil with capital < $950/ft.
-
Quick calc: ~1,017 bbl/d oil, ~194 Boe/d non-oil (≈ 1.16 MMcf/d gas-equiv at 6:1; note this bucket may include NGLs).
-
-
AGI facility: >5.1 Bcf treated to date; >30 MMcf/d peak daily volumes. JV ramping toward full inlet capacity; a second AGI well is permitted, drilled, completed—next steps under evaluation.
What to watch / questions for mgmt
-
Termination economics: any breakup fee, expense reimbursement, or other remedies? (Not mentioned.)
-
Liquidity & runway now that the merger cash isn’t coming—capex cadence, hedge book, and covenant headroom.
-
AGI throughput path to steady-state and impact on uptime/realizations.
-
Well costs: with “<$950/ft” cited, where do full-cycle D&C costs land by lateral length, and what’s the payback at current strip?
