Analyst Update: Quarterly Results, Sale of Assets, Issuance of Shares, and Update on Credit Rating

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA®  

The Wall Street finally witnessed a rebound on Wednesday, January 7, as slight recovery in the oil prices coupled with latest data on the U.S. economy boosted sentiments in equities. The latest FOMC meeting minutes, which signaled that the U.S. central bank may refrain from raising interest rates until at least end of April, also helped U.S. stocks rally the most in three weeks on Wednesday. Snapping the five-day long losing streak, the S&P 500 index marked its first gain in 2015 and ended the session higher by 1.16% at 2,025.90. Similarly, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.23% to finish at 17,584.52, and the NASDAQ Composite ended higher by 1.26% at 4,650.47. A recent report on the health of the U.S. economy said that companies in the U.S. added 241,000 workers in December, the highest since June. European markets also had a sigh of relief on Wednesday after a drop in euro area consumer prices in December lifted hopes that ECB will launch further stimulus soon. Most Asian markets also ended higher on Wednesday tracking strong global cues.

Post Holdings, Inc. (Post Holdings) noted strong top-line results for its fiscal fourth quarter and fiscal year 2014 driven by series of acquisition undertaken by the Company during the year. Fourth quarter (period ended September 30, 2014) net sales were $1.0 billion, an increase of 257.6% YoY while for FY 2014, net sales noted 133.2% YoY increase to $2.4 billion.

Linn Energy, LLC (Linn Energy) has completed the previously announced sale of its entire position in the Granite Wash and Cleveland plays, located in the Texas Panhandle and Western Oklahoma to privately held institutional affiliates of EnerVest, Ltd. and FourPoint Energy, LLC for a contract price of $1.95 billion.

Magellan Petroleum Corporation (Magellan Petroleum) can raise up to $10 million through the issuance of new shares into the market under the employment of its 'at-the-market' (ATM) facility.

Marine Petroleum Trust reported trust corpus of $1.08 million as of September 30, 2014, compared to $1.11 million as on September 30, 2013. Royalty income during the quarter from the sale of oil and sale of natural gas represented 74% and 26% of trust's total royalty income, respectively as compared to 87% and 13% during the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Standard and Poor's (S&P) Rating Services has affirmed Martin Midstream Partners L.P.'s (Martin Midstream or the Partnership) Corporate Credit rating of (B+) and senior unsecured debt rating of (B-). Additionally, the S&P has also removed the partnership from CreditWatch and placed the ratings on negative outlook.
