Todd, Royale Energy is a winner, and their P/E is below their peer group, leaving some upside on the equity price, once additional attention comes to Royale. This could come about as a result of their gaining regular Nasdaq listing, and also when they release their fourth quarter and 1996 financials in March.
I've heard about the company for four years, and in that time they went from private to public, and from oil drilling into natural gas drilling turn-key production, and marketing. Their stock price has zoomed in the last year, reflecting their success as well as being in the right markets and at the right time. I am encouraged as to the strength of their stock during the downturn in energy. It has bumped down only a little. Last year at this time, you could have become a Royale Energy owner at less than three bucks a share. I became a shareholder last spring, and have wished I had bought stock earlier.
Look for some upside in March when they release their financials. I feel that there will be some pleasant surprizes!
