However, things can change quickly in the stock market and hence, it may be a good move to take a look at the updates. The company announced that back on March 9 it had been successful in picking up another 1960 acres in the form of state leases from the State of Wyoming. The company acquired those leases in order to have more potential drilling locations at the Wind River Basin area.

By way of the latest acquisition, the total land holding of Foothills Corporation in the Wind River Basin area came to 20847 acres. In addition to that, the company also announced yesterday that since it had managed to complete the additional acquisition, it would now be able to speed up the award of drilling permit on lands owned by the state. At this point, it may be a good move from investors to keep an eye on further developments and also on the price action in the stock.

The target acquisition is undervalued, underdeveloped and offers low-risk development with behind pipe potential and field wide optimization opportunities. This combination translates into consistent and predictable cash flow to add to our production base,” said Kevin J. Sylla, the Company’s Executive Chairman.
