Union Jack Oil (LSE:UJO) has announced a short delay to drilling at the Crossroads Well in southern Oklahoma, as the rig assigned to the project remains under maintenance. A revised spud date is now expected in early May. The company holds a 43% working interest in the well and confirmed that its share of drilling costs has already been fully funded from existing cash reserves, limiting any immediate financial impact from the delay.
Financial Position and Market Signals
Union Jack Oil’s outlook is underpinned by a strong balance sheet, with no debt and consistent profitability since 2022. However, performance has been affected by a sharp decline in profitability during 2024 and ongoing volatility in free cash flow. Technical indicators suggest mixed momentum, with short-term strength offset by overbought conditions and a weaker longer-term trend. Valuation remains difficult to assess due to a negative price-to-earnings ratio and the absence of dividend yield data.
