Summary Gulfport is now expected to generate close to $300 million in 2024 free cash flow. About three-quarters of this is driven by its hedges.

Gulfport's Q1 2024 production exceeded internal expectations by a couple of percentage points, while its capex was a bit under budget. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaSeeking Alpha • Jun 21

As hedges roll off, GPOR needs natural gas to remain about $3 to justify its current share price; given the nature of the nat gas market, I see limited upside.
