New Wave of Mergers and Acquisitions to Fuel FTTN’s Value-Based Equipment Strategy

The midstream oil and gas sector is preparing for a coming wave of industry-wide mergers and acquisitions that could put a significant amount of valuable equipment on the market for sale at tremendous discount. This scenario is exactly what First Titan Corp. (OTCQB:FTTN) has been planning for with its value-based acquisition strategy that aims to refurbish and resell or lease the equipment to operators when the economic situation improves.

According to industry watchers, more than $150 billion worth of assets have been liquidated globally across the oil and gas business this year alone. Many of the deals have been happening with lightning speed. “If you wait for a deal to come to you, it’s already too late,” one prominent equity executive told a Wall Street Journal reporter.

“A unique, once-in-a-generation situation is rapidly unfolding,” said FTTN CEO Sydney Jim. “And FTTN is in an optimum position to take advantage of this great opportunity. Something like this – the chance to grab valuable assets and equipment for pennies on the dollar – doesn’t come along often. This validates our plan. Companies with the foresight to act now will be sitting pretty when oil and gas rebounds. The deals are out there and we’re going to aggressively pursue every opportunity available.”

In addition to equipment, FTTN continues to look for value-based properties and leases.

FTTN is building a competitive portfolio of oil and gas properties alongside companies such as Lucas Energy, Inc. (LEI), Earthstone Energy, Inc. (ESTE), Fieldpoint Petroleum Corp. (FPP) and Evolution Petroleum Corp. (EPM).
