Jericho Energy Ventures Inc.
Imagine a company that sells everything from razors to batteries to breakfast cereal. While diversification can be a good thing, for investors, it can create confusion. This is where corporate spin-offs come in. By splitting into separate companies, each focused on a distinct business line, investors gain a clearer picture and potentially see more value unlocked.
Benefits abound sometimes by breakups. Companies can dedicate more resources and expertise to their specific markets, leading to improved innovation and efficiency. Further, each company can pursue its own growth strategies, attracting investors specifically interested in that sector, which lends to enhanced valuations, particularly for companies undervalued because of confusion.
Wall Street has handsomely rewarded many companies for taking this approach, allowing the sum of the parts to become far more than the original whole. Think about PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL) (NASDAQ: EBAY) (NYSE: JNJ) (NYSE: KVUE)
By strategically splitting up, companies can realize hidden value and create a clearer path to future success. That is the plan for Jericho Energy Ventures Inc. (TSX-Venture: JEV) (OTCPK: JROOF)
Jericho’s legacy assets are conventional, producing oil and gas wells in Oklahoma. While there is nothing wrong with being an O&G play, it is somewhat conflicting with the company’s primary focus as an ESG play with exciting green hydrogen assets and a top-tier partner opening doors.
In short, the oil and gas assets get lost in the hydrogen assets and vice-versa.
To that end, Jericho is exploring splitting into two streamlined and specialized entities, which could prove brilliant for the exact reasons others have done it before. The plan at this point involves shareholders of Jericho receiving shares of the hydrogen business upon spin-out.
In a recent interview with Tim Weintraut of Alpha Wolf Trading, Jericho Ventures CEO Brian Williamson touched exactly on this point, saying, “I think we have two phenomenal businesses and I think this is going to be an amazing opportunity for both. I think it’s overdue and we just need to execute on it now.”
Shortly into the interview, Williamson quotes Ed Breen, the Executive Chairman of DuPont and a mastermind behind the breakups of Tyco International and DowDuPont into individual companies. Breen, who is a large shareholder in Jericho Energy Ventures, told Williamson, “the market likes simple, and our story is complicated.”
A fossil fuel company in the same portfolio as a leading green hydrogen (where renewable energy is used to separate hydrogen from oxygen in water) company can confuse, dissuade, and flat out prevent some investors from taking a position. Indeed, ardent ESG funds are not going to invest in even the most promising green hydrogen technology when it is accompanied by an oil well.
The duality isn’t lost on Williamson who opines for a moment on cashflow drying up into small oil companies and that Jericho isn’t getting any of the energy transition capital or investment either because its exchange listings are as an oil and gas company.
The flip side of that coin is - and what investors often fail to recognize - is that the O&G assets are what have funded the development of Jericho to this point into a promising green hydrogen play.
The timing of the emerging importance of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) from a niche concern to being woven into the fabric of the business world dovetails with the company’s decision to split. It also aligns beautifully with a partnership forged in October between Jericho and Superior Boiler for the manufacturing of the breakthrough, award-winning, zero-emission DCC™ hydrogen-fueled boiler developed by Jericho’s wholly owned subsidiary Hydrogen Technologies .
Founded in 1917, Superior Boiler is a go-to name in the industry for its portfolio of boilers trusted worldwide. The company’s website is telling, reading, “At Superior Boiler, we’ve set ourselves apart by investing in cutting-edge solutions that revolutionize industry norms.”
Superior has always stood at the forefront of the boiler industry and can now offer the DCC™ hydrogen-fueled boiler to its thousands of customers. Williamson says interest is brewing and that the hope is to ship the first one to a university currently using Superior boilers.
This is the foot in the door that companies dream of. The unnamed university currently uses 100,000 kilograms of steam per day. The DCC™ hydrogen-fueled boiler will supply 3,000 kilograms of that to begin, or 3% of total consumption. What can that grow to? Williamson doesn’t believe 25% is out of the question when the school realizes the incredible efficiency with no greenhouse gas emissions.
From there, the word should be out about the innovative boiler.
Williamson sees a big shift happening for his company and a major opportunity to unlock the value of the two portfolios. Management recognizes the need for consolidation in the oil and gas market, which is home to thousands of small players that will be stronger merged with others. Always focused on value creation, Williamson said, “[t]he oil and gas asset could be a dividend-oriented investment so that cash flow can go back to the shareholders.”
Going forward, Jericho is keenly attuned to the fact that the largest growing pool of capital in the marketplace is focused on the transition to green energy. The company intends to dive into that pool.
