Ensign Resource Service Group (ESI-T) is currently facing challenges due to its significant debt levels, having to pay back a remaining $158 million of a $600 million debt over the next few quarters. Despite a 30% rally, analysts express concerns about whether it can continue this momentum amid fluctuating oil prices. The company maintained a market cap of $400 million, unchanged since before the pandemic, despite paying down $500 million in debt. Insider purchases by top executives suggest potential optimism about future prospects, contingent on successful debt repayment which would free up cash for possible dividend reinstatement. Experts see potential value if the market prices in improved financial health once debt obligations are met.

TOP PICK
(Past top pick Apr 26/04. Down 6%.) Still likes. A good idea to diversify into the service companies in the oil/gas sector. Fully booked. We'll be busy for the next 2/3 years. Day rates are up.
HOLD
Hasn't done well. Model price is showing $33. Need patience and you need a portfolio of similar stocks as a hedge. Building value.
DON'T BUY
Service companies and drillers are attractive in that there is an acceleration in drilling that is going on. May be near the top of the cycle.
BUY
A great "go to" stock in a drilling cycle. Run the company very tightly. Make a lot of money.

Seems to fade back after hitting $22/23. Likes the drilling sector. Drills are booked far ahead and they have lots of money.

Likes this stock.

A lot of upside in the stock. Likes this sector.
