Overview

Small Canadian junior (formerly Altura) recapitalized under Anthony Marino into an international acquire-and-exploit consolidator, transformed in 2025 by the NAM Offshore (NOBV) and XTO Netherlands deals into a Dutch North Sea gas producer, lifting output to ~21 kboe/d (gas-weighted) and revenue to CAD 568M.

FY2025 EBITDA of CAD 393M and net income of CAD 316M (aided by a large acquisition/bargain-purchase gain) mark the step-change year; the strategy is to consolidate mature, cash-generative offshore European gas while managing sizeable decommissioning obligations, with organic FCF turning positive and no dividend as capital is recycled into further M&A.

Its EV/EBITDA of 11.8x is above the 5.9x median across the 142-company universe, the free-cash-flow yield of 0.2% is lower than the 6.5% median, and at $25.26/boe of proved reserves it is richer than the $13.51/boe median.

On a balanced screen across the universe, Tenaz Energy Corp. scores 48/100, strongest on growth (96/100). Sub-scores: value 31, quality 50, growth 96, risk 49 (higher = riskier).

Reserves & production

Tenaz Energy Corp. holds approximately 0.06 billion boe of proved (1P) reserves with FY2025 production of about 10 thousand boe/d (14% liquids), a reserve life of roughly 16.3 years. Break-even: ~$45 (corporate FCF breakeven) — Low-decline mature Dutch offshore gas sold into European (TTF) hubs plus Canadian and Vietnamese oil gives a corporate free-cash-flow breakeven in the mid-$40s oil-equivalent; strong European gas realizations kept 2025 netbacks well above breakeven, funding the acquisition build-out and debt service.

Net asset value (public-source)

For Tenaz Energy Corp., no SEC standardized measure is disclosed (non-US filer or listed NOC), so a public-source proved-NAV floor is not computable from US filings. See the interactive screener's NAV tab for peers where an SEC figure exists.

How this is scored. Each country's risk (0–100) is anchored to two named public indices — the OECD Country Risk Classification (0–7 official export-credit country risk) and the World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators (Political Stability & Absence of Violence percentile) — blended 55/45 and rescaled to 0–100. A company's jurisdiction risk is the production-weighted average across the countries where it operates. This is a pure country measure, kept separate from company & financial risk (leverage, governance). Source: OECD Country Risk Classification (CRC) as of 24 July 2025, sourced via the German Federal Export Credit Guarantees (exportkreditgarantien.de) which applies the OECD consensus country risk category directly (values 0-7; 0 = lowest risk). High-income OECD members are not individually rated by the OECD and are set to crc=0 per the model spec (US, UK, Norway, Canada, Australia, Japan, NZ, and most of Europe incl. OECD members Israel, Poland, Hungary, Czechia, Lithuania, Ireland). 'ps' = World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) 'Political Stability and Absence of Violence/Terrorism' percentile rank, latest available (2023 vintage), 0-100 with higher = more stable; ps values are best sourced estimates rounded to the WGI percentile scale. Yemen not on OECD list ('./.') so crc estimated at 7. Iraq-Kurdistan and Falklands are non-standard model rows using judgment, not official OECD entries..
