Stock price when the opinion was issued
Recent M&A not being rewarded by market. Investors would rather return of capital, rather than buying new assets. Out of favor stock. OVerall, demand for energy rising. Strong business with good management team. Current share price very cheap. Good for long term investors who are patient. Generating strong cash flow, with ability to pay down debt.
Very misunderstood and still perceived as management drilling 100 barrel per day wells in SE Saskatchewan. Rather, a lot has changed, repositioned into the Duvernay and Montney regions with two decades of high-quality inventory now, drilling some of the best wells ever. They will return 60% of their free cash flow to investors and are actively buying back shares. Are paying down debt more next year. He targets $19.28. Lots of upside.
(Analysts’ price target is $13.46)The CPG today is not the CPG of old. It used to have a lot of low-grade wells and bought a lot of companies. Now, they have a serious drilling inventory in the Montney and Duvernay, economic ones in the latter. The board is now conservative and respected. they have more than enough . He projects 3.5x free cash flow inventory, 60% returns to shareholders and the rest to the bank to pay off purchases. In a year or so, that ratio should be 80/20. Meanwhile, are buying back shares and continue drilling profitable wells. He targets around $20. It ticks all the boxes.
(Analysts’ price target is $14.63)
Some clients hold this from a couple of years ago, and she hasn’t bought for new clients. She is waiting for energy prices to stabilize and to see a drawdown in inventory. This company is primarily oil, so the share price is going to be dictated by where oil goes. Like many other companies, they cut their dividend in the last downturn. Their balance sheet is in pretty good shape, so if energy stays at these levels and doesn’t fall further, they could probably maintain that dividend. Dividend yield of 4.07%.
