The provisions embedded within Vaalco Energy’s production sharing contracts and joint operating agreements present a significant business risk by potentially deterring third-party acquisitions. These agreements impose restrictions such as consent requirements, preemption rights, and bonus payments, which complicate or elevate the cost of asset assignments. Such constraints may discourage interested parties from pursuing acquisition opportunities, ultimately depriving shareholders of potential premium offers for their stock. This risk factor highlights a potential barrier to maximizing shareholder value through strategic acquisitions.

The average EGY stock price target is $7.40, implying 105.56% upside potential.
