Precision Drilling (PD-T) is poised to capitalize on the increasing activity within the oil sector, with expectations of a 5-10% increase in pricing leading into 2027. Experts highlight that the company operates exceptionally well and is seen as a strong player among pure play oil producers, suggesting that they will potentially see the most significant gains in the current climate. The recent rally in the stock may be influenced by positive developments like the sanctioning of LNG Canada, and the company has successfully met its debt targets, enabling it to redistribute 50% of its capital back to shareholders. With a compelling free cash flow yield of around 20% projected for the upcoming year, Precision Drilling is actively buying back approximately 10% of its shares, indicating bullish sentiment. While there are positive indicators and growth outlooks tied to US natural gas demand, some experts suggest that service stocks are currently not at the right entry point despite favorable spreadsheet projections.

Valuation

Undervalued

Similar

Pioneer, PXD

BUY

Still has some legs. Had terrific earnings in the last quarter. Made a lot of money drilling gas wells. If it gets to $70, take some profits.

BUY

Excellent company. The high price of oil should keep them busy. Can be volatile.

WEAK BUY

Had good run, it's up near it's high. If you own it keep it, you might want to buy more.

WEAK BUY

Has been subjected to profit taking as of late. Stock has good support. Target of $68

WEAK BUY

Going to drill a record number of wells. 2-3 years of good prospects.

TOP PICK

As people start to recognize that oil prices are going to remain high, then it's time to start looking at the oil service companies.

DON'T BUY

Would prefer a Petro-Canada or a Suncor. Very seasonal.

TOP PICK

Has gone up, but should go up more. His understanding is that all the drill rigs in western Canada should be occupied all winter. Contract rates are very high.

HOLD

Thinks it has 10/15% upside from here, over the next 12 months.

BUY

Entering the season for strong drilling activity. Should do well in the next 3/4 months.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Has an up and down pattern. In this type of situation, you want to buy on weakness. Has to break out beyond $60 before it will be in an upward trend.

TOP PICK

Earnings tripled in the third quarter. They have 65% of their rigs utilized. Gas price is going through the roof so more wells will be drilled.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

More optimistic on energy prices then the street. Should create a solid upward move in drilling stocks. Buy on weakness.

DON'T BUY

Drilling activity is not as strong as hoped. Would consider oil/gas stocks instead.
