Southern Energy Corp. retired its senior bank debt as of Q1 2026 through a financing transaction on February 12, generating net proceeds of approximately CA$22 million. This included issuing 17,000 senior secured convertible debentures and common shares, reducing annual cash interest from 15% to 7%.
The company’s market capitalization stands at CA$27.13 million, with a focus on disciplined capital deployment to enhance shareholder value. Southern is optimistic about the natural gas market, bolstered by LNG export capacity and rising demand.
However, ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly the conflict involving Iran, continue to pressure oil prices, impacting consumer markets. The outcome of transportation disputes, with FERC involvement, could influence production from key fields.
