  • Strike Energy (STX AU)‘s transition from a pure explorer to an upstream gas producer hasn’t exactly gone to plan.

  • Strike started pumping & selling gas from its Perth-basin Walyering project in September 2023; and green lit a gas-fired peaking power plant in November 2024.

  • The share price is now at a six-year low. Yesterday, Strike announced CEO, non-executive chair, and NED changes/retirements; and following an independent review, a move towards a smaller board.

Strike is not super liquid - look away now if this is not your thing.


The Trade:

  • Strike is down >40% in the past 12 months, and is currently at a multi-year low.

  • The board overhaul and a new discovery at Walyering are positive.

  • Taking Strike into its fold makes sense for Gina Rinehart’s Hancock Energy. Or possibly Beach.
