Birchcliff Energy Ltd. (BIR-T) is recognized for its position as a gas producer, particularly within the Canadian market. Experts express bullish sentiment towards the natural gas sector, yet caution against the risks associated with smaller capitalization stocks, especially in potential price downturns. While the company's balance sheet appears stretched, there is a positive outlook for long-term growth driven by LNG. Current political constraints in Canada could impact natural gas prices, though experts remain optimistic about potential price increases in the coming years. Overall, Birchcliff is seen as a small-cap opportunity with a higher risk-reward profile, especially if investors believe in the long-term potential of natural gas.

Valuation

Fair Value

CVE,Canadian Natural Resources Limited

COMMENT

Share have been hurt because of weak natural gas prices. BIR's debt-free aims may be delayed by a year because of this. He is positive nat gas, because the move to renewables from fossil fuels will take time.

HOLD

Doesn't like natural gas. Good dividend yield. Good management team, but better idea out there.

BUY

Recent special dividend, and he admires this conservative use of capital for cyclicals. Doesn't hedge a lot, so lots of torque with commodity pricing. If you think nat gas will be under pressure this winter, BIR is good to hold onto. PE is relatively low, because earnings are high, and that's when you have to be careful. Good balance sheet.

COMMENT

Trading at 2.6 X. Used free cash flow for dividends - companies should be using it for share buybacks. so it gets a re-rating on price. TOU or ARC are better for gas companies.

BUY

Is a long term shareholder of the company. Given strength of energy prices, is a very strong company. Politically stable country. Large amounts of cash flow generation. Very high quality name with good management team. Would recommend buying.

BUY

Very straight forward management team with clear intentions. Company has committed to eliminating debt and increasing dividend. Looking at ~8% dividend yield going forward. Good company if shareholders looking for dividends. Sees more upside in other energy companies.

DON'T BUY

BIR vs. CPG CPG is more balanced oil and nat gas, whereas BIR has more nat gas. CPG has had a good turnaround from new management. CPG is cheap on free cashflow basis, and he'd definitely look at it at these prices.

BUY

Believes company is a strong natural gas producer. Expecting increasing share price, dividends and stock buybacks. Natural gas pricing environment to remain strong. Thinks natural gas prices will remain high with LNG expansion in Canada.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 24/20, Up 1376%) Big beneficiary of nat gas LNG on the west coast. $20 target on it. Will be out of debt by the end of this year, lots of free cashflow, unhedged. Premier company. Potential takeover. A buy on any weakness. He sold on recession concerns.

TOP PICK

It has lots of upside based on current earnings and has traded much higher historically. It has both oil and gas with some emphasis on gas. There is more upside for oil and gas generally. Buy 12 Hold 2 Sell 0

N/A

Company exposed to natural gas price. Believes more upside in Canadian oil companies. Paying down debt and strong management team.

DON'T BUY

Not bullish on gas due to its relation with weather. Could see 46% upside, but other names have more potential. Look for cheaper multiples.

COMMENT

Can see a 40% upside here. Goal is to pay down debt and stream out the free cashflow. The inventory depth of the asset, it is trading at 18% free cashflow. Future dividend is possible. Everything looks good in the sector, so you must chose the best option.

BUY

Rising relative strength. Strong performance. Generating a ton of free cash. Gas production is rising. Completely unhedged. Likes the group. Gas prices likely going up into the winter.

BUY

Focused on nat gas, unlike SU. Strong seasonality right now, which favours BIR, until mid-late June. A reasonable buy at this point.
