Advantage Oil & Gas Ltd (AAV-T) is gaining attention among experts as a notable player in the Canadian natural gas sector, particularly for those expecting a bullish trend in natural gas prices. Despite its potential for substantial upside due to price fluctuations, the company does not offer a dividend, making it less appealing to conservative investors. One review mentions that the company is undergoing a strategic review, which often indicates an intention to sell, a process that has taken longer than anticipated and may indicate underlying issues with the company's performance relative to its peers. Moreover, there are concerns about its share price trajectory and past conflicts with management. Overall, while it provides a high torque to natural gas prices, its current circumstances present a mixed outlook.

Cenovus, CVE

DON'T BUY

Turning into a corporation and cut the distributions to zero. Had to sell off a bunch of assets to pay off debt. There are a lot of better opportunities in the oil patch.

DON'T BUY

Double whammy in that it is natural gas focused and has a lot of leverage. Have a number of convertible debentures that are due to mature in the next 3 years, particularly 2009. Chances of refinancing are pretty limited.

WAIT

Did the right thing in substantially cutting its distribution to live within its means. Near-term issue with some convertible debt that needs to be rolled over and thinks the market is concerned that it will be refinanced with shares so would wait for some clarity. Pretty good asset base.

HOLD

(Market Call Minute.) Reasonable yield. If oil/gas can turn around in the next little bit, it looks good. If not you are in the glue.

COMMENT

You have to be satisfied that oil prices are going to hang around $50-$70 over the next 5 years. Also, will the government do anything about income trusts in the next budget?

DON'T BUY

Primarily weighted to natural gas. Traditionally has a higher payout ratio and higher debt level. There are names that could hold up better in a difficult environment.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Higher risk name, but he would buy some in the hopes that we get a cold winter and natural prices firm up.

COMMENT

Gas weighted. Could be a takeover candidate. If this is a loss in a taxable account, consider selling and putting the proceeds into one that is a little stronger. If non-taxable, wait for 12 to 18 months to see if you can get 20% to 30% back.

COMMENT

Roughly 60% gas and 40% oil. About 70% payout ratio. Prefers other trusts in this area. At present natural gas prices, he would be concerned about the distribution.

COMMENT

No disasters and mild winters have hit natural gas. For the stock to do well, gas would have to go to $9 or $10 and you'd have to have the Cdn$ come off.

COMMENT

3 gas-weighted companies that he feels will cut distributions are Trilogy (TET.UN-T), Advantage Energy (AVN.UN-T) and Prime West (PWI.UN-T).

HOLD

Wouldn't be at the top of his trust list. If you own, Hold as there is more positive than negative ahead.

DON'T BUY

About 75% natural gas. In the past, have relied on equity issuances, buying additional companies to increase production. The only way to survive is to add production through the drill bit.

SELL

Have cut distributions twice in the last couple of months. This is one of the more unsustainable models. There are better quality oil/gas trusts available.

DON'T BUY

Just cut the distributions by half and could be expected to cut again. He has actually been short this stock in 2006. Too much debt.
