This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

Precision Drilling (PD-T) is viewed positively by experts, who highlight a strong performance in the oil and natural gas sectors. There is optimism about pricing increasing by 5-10% as the activity in the space continues to rise, indicating a bullish outlook heading into 2027. The rally in the company's stock might be linked to favorable legislative changes, such as the sanctioning of LNG Canada, which suggests improved market conditions. Additionally, the company has successfully achieved its debt targets, allowing for a strategic pivot toward returning 50% of capital to shareholders, especially through stock buybacks. Overall, despite some experts noting a current lack of exposure to service stocks due to high trading multiples, they acknowledge that Precision Drilling is well-run and positioned well for future growth in U.S. natural gas markets.

BUY

The #1 services company in Canada and #2 in North America. They have a good footprint everywhere. Oil companies have a lot of cash and will be spending it on exploration.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Would preferred to buy this at $36/37 levels. A well-managed company and it should do well in this robust commodity price environment with lots of drilling in western Canada.

BUY

An excellent name. The prospects over the next six to eight months are very good. Looking for increases in day rates of 15% range. 80% payout ratio. Should continue to have strong growth.

BUY

3rd quarter results were spectacular indicating record drilling, record spending activity. Yield is fairly low.

DON'T BUY

This one is above his model price.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sept 16/05. Converted to a trust and she was down slightly.) Now a trust and the trust is a top pick for today.

TOP PICK

The largest contract driller in Canada. Feels that drilling services are going to be very strong going into this winter season. Increasing their distributions from $0.24 to $0.27 per month.

DON'T BUY

Use a little caution because of motivation of management team. It's hard to see what's going to motivate them to be the next greatest thing. From an upside capotal gains position you can do better.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 20/05. Up 10%.)

HOLD

Converted to an income trust this week. If you own, you'll soon get Weatherford Int'l (WFT-N) shares as well as cash. Thinks the units will do pretty well. Recommending that his clients sell the Weatherford shares and hold on to the units.

BUY

The entire service industry is pushed to the limit with their capacity of people and equipment. Outlook for them is awfully good.

BUY

Changing to an income trust which is a good move on their part. Will probably perform quite well going forward. The caveat is the cyclical nature of the drilling bit. At or near the peak of this cycle. Should be able to maintain good solid earnings growth. The current price is a reasonable level for anyone looking for a high quality income trust.

BUY

Now that they have shed their international operations, this would be a pretty good trust. Feels the stock is probably worth $56/58.

BUY

His a model price is $52. Beginning to see signs of value within this group.

BUY

Was a little surprised that it sold off its fabulous international holdings. Should be a goiod trust.
