Shorting Lilis Energy shares

There are currently 4.9 million Lilis Energy shares held short by investors – that's known as Lilis Energy's "short interest". This figure is 8% down from 5.3 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Lilis Energy shares can be evaluated.

Lilis Energy's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Lilis Energy's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Lilis Energy shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Lilis Energy shares traded daily (recently around 4.4 million). Lilis Energy's SIR currently stands at 1.12. In other words for every 100,000 Lilis Energy shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1120 shares are currently held short.

However Lilis Energy's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Lilis Energy shares, or, against the total number of tradable Lilis Energy shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Lilis Energy's short interest could be expressed as 0.05% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Lilis Energy shares in existence, roughly 50 shares are currently held short) or 0.078% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Lilis Energy shares, roughly 78 shares are currently held short).

Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Lilis Energy.

Have Lilis Energy's shares ever split?

Lilis Energy's shares were split on a 1:10 basis on 24 June 2016. So if you had owned 10 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Lilis Energy shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Lilis Energy shares which in turn could have impacted Lilis Energy's share price.

Lilis Energy share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Lilis Energy's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.0182 up to $0.2923. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE MKT average) beta is 1, while Lilis Energy's is 1.6167. This would suggest that Lilis Energy's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
