An update from Frontera Energy ( (TSE:FEC) ) is now available.

Frontera Energy has agreed to sell its entire Colombian upstream exploration and production portfolio, including associated facilities such as the SAARA water treatment plant and the Proagrollanos palm oil operation, to GeoPark for up to $400 million in equity value and a firm transaction value of $622 million, with $375 million payable at closing and an additional $25 million tied to development milestones. The deal, which values the equity at a meaningful premium to Frontera’s recent trading levels, will see the company transfer its 2028 senior unsecured notes to GeoPark and use the net cash proceeds to return roughly $370 million to shareholders, helping bring total value delivered through its multi‑year capital return and strategic initiatives to about $1.1 billion, while recasting Frontera as an infrastructure‑centric business built around its ODL and Puerto Bahía assets and their projected $77 million in distributable cash flow in 2025.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:FEC) stock is a Hold with a C$6.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Frontera Energy stock, see the TSE:FEC Stock Forecast page.
