Vaalco Energy: The Growth Story Is Gaining Momentum
Vaalco Energy is entering a major production growth phase, driven by the return of its FPSO and strong drilling results in Gabon. EGY is upgraded to Strong Buy, trading at just 2.5x 2027 EBITDA, with significant upside from conservative production guidance and oil market tailwinds. Recent well results in Gabon and the Cote d'Ivoire FPSO ramp are expected to drive substantial production and revenue growth into 2027.
Vaalco Energy: Hitting The Jackpot
Vaalco Energy is rebounding strongly from prior production lows. This is driven by successful Gabon drilling and (the routine) FPSO restart. The Gabon campaign's first five wells are progressing with a successful track record. Management is likely to exercise additional drilling options. EGY had maintained a debt-free balance sheet. This enabled operational flexibility and resilience through recent disruptions and field shutdowns.
Vaalco Energy: Lucky Break
VAALCO Energy anticipates a challenging start to FY2026 with significant negative cash flows. Production is ramping up as Gabon's drilling campaign yields results. EGY benefits from geopolitical tailwinds. Its West African and Egyptian operations are insulated from the Strait of Hormuz risks.
