Paramount Resources (POU-T) is viewed with a mix of optimism and caution by various experts. While one reviewer expresses concerns about the company's ability to capitalize on the current market opportunities, highlighting a preference for companies with a stronger focus on oil production, they do acknowledge the strong leadership of the CEO. Another expert praises the company as an intermediate gas producer that has demonstrated good operational momentum and strong financial liquidity, despite recent asset sales aimed at raising funds. They also note that while Canadian natural gas prices have been weak, there is an expectation of improvement in winter as LNG Canada comes online. The third review underscores the positive potential of the company, linking it to favorable oil and gas price dynamics, but also highlights a recent significant drop in its stock price, reflecting the volatility in the sector.

DON'T BUY

Natural gas prices are very depressed because storage is very high due to 2 warm winters. Unless there is a super, super cold winter, gas is going to stay low.

DON'T BUY

He has never liked this one. His model price is $4.67. A negative 73% differential. An asset play rather than an earnings play. Looked on for its reserves, not its earnings.

WEAK BUY

A good name with lots of potential. Low cost properties. Decent balance sheet. Oil sand leases. Good diversity. Has a heavy weighting towards natural gas, which is where the worrisome piece is. Gas weighted names are dead money for a while.

WEAK BUY

Like a lot of gas-exposed stocks, it is absolutely hated by the market at present. Natural gas is a no-brainer, long-term play. It is likely you will see some upside in gas prices at which point, this will be taken out or things start improving. Not his favourite.

WAIT

Have spun out some assets and are now a debt free natural gas company. She is not particularly bullish on natural gas prices in the next month or two. If it tests its low, she would view this as a fantastic entry point.

BUY

Sold their oil sands holdings so they now have the best balance sheet in the business, debt-free, net cash. Expect they will make acquisitions during the period of cheap gas.

BUY

Very attractively valued. Have great assets. Management is very good long-term strategic thinker.

COMMENT

Sold a lot of assets and I are sitting on a large amount of cash. Expect there will be an accelerated amount of M&A activity in the oil patch. The stock is nearing a bottom here.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 27/06. Down 41.4%.) Had a couple of oil sands plays a year ago. Sold those assets and is now 100% gas, which is out of favour. Debt-free balance sheet. Expect they will buy cheap gas assets in the next little while and the stock will be substantially higher a year from now. Great entry point.

BUY

He likes it still. Some people leave the stock when the commodities are weak, but when you see the commodity going up they pick up as well.

BUY

Has been in the middle of selling it's 9 core assets (oil sands). Feels the restructuring was done in a very smart way and now have the best balance sheet in the industry. Market doesn't understand the restructuring and has unfairly punished stock for it.

BUY

Has historically been used as a gas proxy. Stocks get valued on their producing assets, but Paramount has all these other "off-balance sheet" assets. Very unique in that space. Nothing enthusiastic, but a good way to play.

DON'T BUY

Has just had a fairly good run from $16 to $26.50. It doesn't have any earnings. No mispriced assets here. His model price is $6.23. A 76% negative differential.

COMMENT

Not one of their favourites, but they seem to be in the right place.

TOP PICK

Varied asset portfolio. No debt. Have shares in MGM and Trilogy, which they can distribute and become a pure play, debt-free 20,000 BOE's a day gas company. Could end up going private.
