Experts have mixed but generally positive views on Parkland Fuel Corp (PKI-T) following its acquisition by Sunoco. Many believe that the merger will enhance the combined entity's profitability, particularly with the current geopolitical climate positively affecting margins. Some analysts have set a price target for Parkland at $41.50, reflecting optimism about future performance. However, there are concerns regarding how shareholders will respond to the acquisition price, with recommendations to tender for cash to reassess the situation post-deal closure. Overall, while the sentiment is mostly favorable, caution is advised as the market adjusts to the changes brought on by the acquisition.
He owned this for a long time but sold out as its price rose. His worry is that, with all the acquisitions they made, their debt has become huge. A slowdown, or a rise in interest rates could be very difficult for them. The market is ignoring this for now, partially because Parkland has made interesting acquisitions, such as a refinery, which came with Chevron’s retail operations. They buy Canadian oil at a discount, refine it and sell the gasoline at world price. The margin is excellent at this time. World oil price is at 4 year highs, but that might not last.
