DELPHI ENERGY $1.68 – Toronto symbol DEE

DELPHI ENERGY $1.68 (Toronto symbol DEE; SI Rating: Speculative) (403-265-6171; www.delphienergy.ca; Shares outstanding: 92.3 million; Market cap: $155.1 million) explores for oil and gas in Alberta and B.C. Natural gas makes up 87% of its overall daily output.

In the three months ended June 30, 2009, Delphi’s average daily output rose 9.8%, to 6,809 barrels of oil equivalent (this measurement includes natural gas) from 6,202 barrels.

Despite the higher production, Delphi’s cash flow per share fell 44.8%, to $0.16 from $0.29 a year earlier. That’s because of lower oil and gas prices.

Delphi recently raised $16.5 million by selling 13.5 million shares at $1.25 each. It will use the funds to drill on its properties. It may also make acquisitions.

The company’s $102.2-million debt is a high 65.9% of its market cap, but only 2.1 times its annualized cash flow (based on the latest quarter). The stock trades at only 3.2 times Delphi’s forecast 2009 cash flow of $0.53 a share.

Delphi is a buy for aggressive investors.
