Oxford Partners (OXF), $166mm IPO at price range mid-point of $19 |
|
Scheduled for July 14, Wednesday |
|
BUSINESS |
|
Low cost producer of high value steam coal, and the largest producer of surface mined coal in Ohio.
SUMMARY |
|
78% of use of proceeds to repay debt & payback sponsors |
|
Price to book of 3.4 is high (lower is better) |
|
OXF does not have a major partner involved in ownership & sponsorship |
|
Without involvement, sponsorship & ownership of a limited partnership like OXR, long term success is probamatical |
|
Aggressive assumptions suggest an attractive distribution payout rate of 9.2% on a $19 (price range mid-point) unit. However, assumptions deplete cash on hand to pay $15mm in distributions |
|
QUARTERLY DISTRIBUTION RATE |
|
Intends to establish a minimum quarterly distribution of $0.4375 per unit for each complete quarter, or |
|
. $1.75 per unit on an annualized basis. |
|
. 9.2% at $19 per unit |
|
CASH FORECAST VERY AGGRESSIVE |
|
OXR forecasts that cash available for distribution generated during the twelve months ending June 30, 2011 will be approximately $44.1 million. This amount would be sufficient to pay the full minimum quarterly distribution of $0.4375 per unit on all of common units and subordinated units and the corresponding distribution on the general partner’s 2.0% general partner interest for each quarter in the twelve months ending June 30, 2011 |
|
The cash forecast assumes $22mm comes from cash on hand, leaving only $7.3mm on hand |
|
OXR did not generate this amount of available cash from operating surplus during the year ended December 31, 2009 and the twelve months ended March 31, 2010. |
