PetroBakken (PBN)

[dan_s]

PetroBakken (PBKEF on the Pink Sheets in the U.S.) will be promoted to the Sweet 16 on July 1st.

> It pays dividends monthly ($0.08/month or $0.96/yr Canadian) and now offers an 8% annual yield
> 2nd quarter production will be down from Q1 but will quickly rebound to an exit rate of 52,000 to 56,000 boepd by year-end.
> Despite the company's name, its growth is now coming from the Cardium Light Oil play in Alberta. Bakken production should remain flat.
> It has a large acreage position and several years of double digit production growth locked in.
> I believe the stock's high yield protects our downside until the market sees the company's outstanding growth potential.

It is replacing GeoResources (GEOI). I will announce several more changes in an EPG Flash Alert to all members on Friday.
