CHK dumps minerals they bought from locals using front companies
I wonder if CHK has ever done a deal where there wasn't some type of con/double talking involved.
In fact, I wonder if any of the Shalies have done any deals where there wasn't some type of con involved.
Oh Yeah! They are "uniquely" qualified. Indeed. They are all as dimly witted as they are bereft of character.
On the bright side, we do know it was a distress sale so let's hope CHK lost money.
Here is the story:
On January 29, 2016, Houston-based Haymaker Resources closed on the acquisition of mineral and royalty interests from certain affiliates of Oklahoma City-based Chesapeake Energy Corporation. The acquisition includes producing and non-producing mineral and royalty interests associated with over 8,500 wells across 24 states and 324 counties. The majority of production comes from the Mid-Continent, Haynesville, and Appalachia regions. Final closing price is subject to post-closing adjustments.
Haymaker CEO Karl Brensike said, “In the current market environment, operators are focusing on their core assets more than ever before. I think everyone can agree that there is nothing more non-core to an operator than owning non-operated royalty interests. This was a complex transaction, involving numerous business units formed over Chesapeake’s 30 years as a very active acquirer of premier oil and gas assets. I am proud of our team, which is uniquely capable of executing these types of transactions. We are fortunate to have a capital structure that allows us to continue acquiring aggressively throughout the current commodity cycle."
DLA Piper advised Haymaker on the transaction.

This morning, on a stock blog, an individual was musing about whether he should buy 10 shares of CHK or go have a nice breakfast at McDonalds.
They cost the same.
Every dog has his day.

Of course it's not clear.
Obfuscation and prevarication are the coins of the realm in dirt bag land.
It's the only thing they know.
It's the only thing they have going for them.
Without it they would be asking "would you like fries with that" instead of "are you unleased."
You take the double crossing/talking, cheating and stealing out of their game and there is very little.
CHK's Financial Statements, released yesterday, show they don't even make money off of oil & gas exploration (that's an understatement).
They made more money transporting, treating and compressing than they did from selling oil & gas.
Ain't that the damndest thing?
The victimization of the mineral owners to pay the banks is scandalous.

Why is it unethical for CHK to sell some of it's interests?

They used "certain affiliates" to acquire the positions.
Focus in on that Phil.
Start with the 10Q's and 10K's.
Oh what a tangled web we weave.
It would be nice to know what they paid and for what they sold.
Haymaker better keep the period for adjustments open indefinitely.
I'd be surprised if they can prove, with marked up instruments, run sheets, schematics and indexes, marketable title for any of it.
Haymaker better have "unique" skills.

Who is to say Haymaker will develop the acreage or just resell them at a profit.......production is not the only way to make money for these oil companies

Haymaker is not developing anything. This is royalty they purchased not leasehold.

I'd like to hear comments about MAC, "Mineral Acquisition Company".
They were an entity combined of CHK and KKR.
I received several rather substantial O/G offers from them, several through various legal firms I deal with as well as myself individually. They wanted my lease in its entirety (Not royalties)
My question is if they were ever in the business of purchasing coal rights?
