Birchcliff Energy Ltd. is noted for being in the early stages of an uptrend, characterized by higher highs and higher lows. The company is exploring opportunities within the natural gas sector, where experts suggest that incremental investments could be beneficial for short-term gains. Nevertheless, Birchcliff is recognized as a smaller-cap producer with significant capital expenditure requirements to boost its production capabilities. Predictions indicate that it may not see free cash flow until 2029, which raises concerns for some analysts. While the company has a reasonable forward PE multiple of about 5x that aligns with its peers, there are reservations about its leverage situation and the need for a robust examination of management's history to assure long-term success.

Valuation

Fair Value

TOU

BUY

About a 5% monthly dividend. He intends to buy more. The balance sheet is not a problem. They will be a big beneficiary of LNG. The management team has done a good job in the past for shareholders.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

How does it change a stock when it leaves the TSX? It is just a market cap thing. It has nothing to do with the value of the company. They benefit from LNG. Tax loss selling will attach this one but be will be a buyer.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

It has had a nice bounce and he would be a buyer on any weakness. He has a target of $5 in twelve months. It is over a 4% dividend yield.

DON'T BUY

There's an abundance of natural gas, but there's a lag in the build-out for further LNG capacity. Globally, there's an overbuild of LNG capacity that takes time to soak up; Euro nat gas prices have plunged. He's not excited by natural gas. Pays almost a 6% yield because the share price has fallen so much. Nothing against BIR, but the nat gas space is troubled.

TOP PICK

Nat Gas producer in the North West Alberta. 5.44% dividend yield. He likes it a lot and has a $5 target. (Analysts’ price target is $4.70)

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Likes the company. His one-year price target is $5. Balance sheet very strong, good growth potential when gas prices pick up. Intends to buy more. Yield is about 3.5%. Raised dividend about 5% a couple of months ago.

HOLD

A premiere gas producer with good critical scale. He owns it, but it will take some patience. It has 20% in liquids and their gas pricing is non-AECO and non-Station 2 (BC), moving into the Chicago market.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 16/18, Up 12%) The balance sheet is in good shape. They are now guiding flat. They will knock off some debt this year. Book value is $6.67 and he has a $7 target. He keeps on adding to it. They raised the dividend in the last quarter.

COMMENT

He likes energy in general, and BIR will likely reach $5, but doesn't know if it'll rise higher than that.

DON'T BUY

He is challenged with natural gas in general in North America. There is a tonne of low cost supply. There are other names he would strongly prefer. He would not have exposure to Canadian nat gas stocks now.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 18/18, Up 15%) It has done well. They are generating cash flow even in the coming year. Below $3.20 it is a buy and below $3 it is a table pounding buy.

DON'T BUY

They are natural gas and people are frustrated with Nat Gas companies. Nat Gas is up in the states but this one has been hit. It is the difference between Canadian and US pricing differences. In Canada Nat Gas companies don’t have the same robustness from seasonality. Nat Gas will do well again just before the A/C season. Wait until you see Nat Gas going up before getting into this stock.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Why is the price of natural gas rising, but this stock is declining? There's not always a correlation between natural gas prices and these stocks. BIR has a $2.80 support level, but nat gas' seasonality just ended. We need to see BIR hold its current level. He expects investors to step in here.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 18/17, Down 28%) It is ridiculously cheap. The balance sheet is very good. A year from now all three of these names should look really good. They have positive cash flow because they have firm hedges. Be bought stock last week.

BUY

It is a natural gas producer. He likes the setup for Canadian gas stocks. He bought in the fall. We are starting to get a cold winter. It set a record in Toronto last night. KEL-T was highlighted to him this week as one that gets a pretty good price for its gas and he recommends it also. He likes the gas trade here.
