Our Mission is to capitalize and promote the transition to an economical sustainable future for humanity through impactful investments in American energy infrastructure and technologies.
Opportunity
Limited
Capital
There is a lack of capital to develop and maintain existing U.S. infrastructure of oil and gas, due to:
The ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) movement;
The lack of support from bureaucrats;
Poor historical performance of public and private investment firms, recently exacerbated by the covid pandemic; and
Lack of bank financing.
AEF can fill the gap and provide creative capital solutions to operators via debt and equity.
Supply And
Demand
Energy demand will exceed supply for the foreseeable future:
Covid pandemic put various U.S. drilling and well service providers out of business, causing production to plummet;
Global energy transition to renewable energy is uncoordinated;
Russian oil and gas is being boycotted around the world; and
OPEC cannot meet production demands.
Energy is in a “super cycle” and will remain elevated for the immediate future.
Inflation Hedge-"Petrodollars"
Oil and gas holds tangible value due to being priced in US dollars worldwide.
Quantitative Easing or money printing by the Federal Reserve has caused massive inflation;
Commodities such as oil, gas, and metals usually increase along with inflation;
Oil and gas holds tangible value due to being priced in US dollars worldwide; and
Public companies that invest in oil and gas are extremely top heavy and burdened with overhead and regulations.
AEF invests in a way that takes out the middle man so the majority of your investment returns are from the spot prices of oil and natural gas.
Tax-Advantaged
Investments
America is the only country in the world that legally allows and encourages private companies to own, develop and maintain oil and gas wells
The tax code includes various incentives to encourage domestic energy production;
Intangible Drilling Costs (IDCs) are 80% deductible against active income (W2 wages and capital gains, salaries, bonuses and commissions) in the year incurred, regardless of whether the well actually produces or not.
Tangible Drilling Costs are 80% deductible in the year incurred due to Bonus Depreciation.
Depletion Allowance: 15% annual write off against gross income from oil and gas
AEF expects 30-50% of the income to be tax-deductible for its investors.
High Barrier
To Entry
Asset class normally reserved for high-net worth individuals and institutions.
AEF has access to:
“Off-market” drilling projects, recompletions, and joint ventures, not available to retail investors
Industry veterans and consultants;
Capital providers; and
Institutional knowledge.
AEF has an insider’s advantage in the asset class.
