The recent MEG Energy acquisition is recognized as a strategic move that could enhance synergies and volumes in the long term, despite an increased debt burden. Analysts appreciate the management's effectiveness and the company's strong cash flow, particularly benefiting from record refinery margins. The consensus reflects expectations of higher energy prices contributing positively to cash flow, though some caution is advised regarding debt reduction and the potential impact on shareholder returns. Analysts believe Cenovus is undervalued in the current market, with several indicating significant upside potential based on earnings ratios and future oil price predictions.

CNQ
BUY
Long-term growth story of oil sands. He chose CNQ and SU as his oil stories. Not enough coverage of this one yet. Likes the oil sands. Lots of reserves in a politically stable area. Nice dividend.
BUY
Very high quality company.
DON'T BUY
He is almost at the point of taking out some of his oil stocks and start to look at some of the natural gas. At $85 oil they're going to do fine. More growth on the Encana (ECA-T) side.
BUY
This is a heavy oil side after the split up of Encana (ECA-T). Great management and great prospects. Low cost producer. Oil in the long-term is going to go higher but you need to own good companies.
WATCH
Still not a huge producer yet. Have been able to drill oil sands at one of the lowest costs. A “wait and see” to see if their technology really works.
COMMENT
On a longer-term basis, the tar sands is a less risky side of the business than the gas side and is a good distance away from this company.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) You should buy this for its oil sands production longer-term.
TOP PICK
Very solid integrated oil/gas company. Exposed to the oil sands but have traditional oil/gas assets throughout North America. Very low dividend level relative to earnings so there could be room for dividend increases. Recent quarter came in better than expected. Selling between 6-7 times cash flow.
WEAK BUY
Oil sands have been weakfish. It has just livened up lately. You have to be patient with it. It is affected by political noise. It’s an oil sands play.
DON'T BUY
Not a favourite in the energy space. This one is a spin out from Encana (ECA-T) and is more the SAG-D assets. It came out at a higher valuation than some of its peers.
TOP PICK
Market doesn’t know what to do with it. Would have preferred they didn’t split off. 50% natural gas. Going to be a growth oil sands company. Has great asset and management. It will sit there for a bit and it is not going any lower. A stable cash flow generating engine that you can own forever.
TOP PICK
Has lagged the industry to a great extent and is becoming a compelling buy. Good production profile going forward. Downstream margins have not been strong but this company will participate in natural gas strength.
COMMENT
One of the better producers per barrel in the oil sands. Not a bad one if you like heavy oil. He is not a fan of heavy oil.
COMMENT
Stock price should continue to go up. About 58% natural gas but in its asset mix it has Christina Lake, an excellent heavy oil production facility. Also a big play in Foster Creek. Also involved in refining.
COMMENT
Valuation after the spin-off is a little bit higher than its peer group. Needs an update from the company and then consider whether to Sell or Hold.
