Suncor Energy Inc. (SU) is widely regarded as a strong player in the Canadian energy sector, particularly in oil sands. Many experts praise its impressive turnaround under new management, which has resulted in significant earnings growth and an efficient operational structure. Despite recent challenges due to fluctuating oil prices and broader geopolitical issues, Suncor is said to maintain a robust outlook with long-term potential for free cash flow generation, especially as investments in infrastructure continue. The company is viewed favorably for its ability to return capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks, as well as its long reserve life that offers stability in the energy market. A few experts express caution regarding current valuation levels and suggest watching market dynamics before making significant moves, yet the overall sentiment leans towards optimism with potential upside depending on future oil price movements.

Consensus

Positive

Valuation

Fair Value

Similar

CNQ

DON'T BUY

The earnings were good where they slightly beat. Their cash flow is improving. The 4% dividend is pretty safe. It's not cheap of a stock and trades at a premium. Bottom line, this company will have negative cashflow unless oil prices go up higher. He wouldn't buy here.

HOLD

An integrated major in Canada. If investors ever come back into the energy space, they are going to buy the bigger companies first. Plus it pays just under a 4% dividend. He would not expect a big move higher anytime though. It trades generally between $40-$48.

TOP PICK

Buy below $40; it rarely stays below $40. It's integrated $1 billion of free cash flow, so they can buy back stock and raise the dividend. 12x PE and a 4% dividend. The top way to play energy. (Analysts’ price target is $49.78)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 24/18, Down 4%) He'd still buy it today. Not as much torque as in other oil names, but SU is widely held and pays a safe 4% yield. It's the top energy company in Canada, both upstream and downstream. Their refining profits will improve going forward.

TOP PICK

Oil stocks are cheap, providing that at some point oil pricing comes through. This isn't trading far from book value now, and didn't fall to book value when the oil price plunged earlier. Now, the oil price is not there. (Analysts’ price target is $51.41)

DON'T BUY

CNQ and SU He owns no oil stocks, but CNQ and SU are good. He sees no relief for oil stocks after the election, which could result in a coalition government. Doesn't see pipeline problems lifting.

BUY

They need more pipeline capacity to grow. Debt has come down. They will have a massive ability to increase the dividend.

WATCH

They just beat on Q2. They are focusing on higher value production and offshore developments. Should get decent cash flows at 5%, trading at 1.3x with a safe dividend. It’s not particularly cheap, and it’s oil but other than that, it is good name. He wouldn’t buy today at these prices.

HOLD

Now that he is enthusiastic about energy going forward, SU-T is actually relatively expensive to its peers. This may actually cause them to under-perform in the space. If you want the consistent cash flow and decent yield you can continue to hold this for the next 30 years. He has moved out looking for better opportunities.

TOP PICK

A lot of institutional investors own these. They have not done well in the environment we have seen, but the yield is over 4% and they have well integrated operations with some of the best assets in Canada. (Analysts’ price target is $52.87)

HOLD

A core holding. Valuation, long-life reserves. Safe, dividend-oriented, and international interest in it.

TOP PICK

Stocks like this have a history of bouncing back from a sell off. It’s at the low end of its trading range and would be buying it here.

WATCH

It is one of the best looking charts and has not deteriorated as much as some of the others. They are well managed and in a good position. What they need is to get product out of Alberta. You need the oil pricing and that is all.

HOLD

SU vs. CVE. Doesn't love energy so much. Has its challenges, China being one of them. Another being energy pricing. Suncor is coming into a level of support. If he owned it, he'd give it the benefit of the doubt and hold. Might be a buy for a more aggressive investor. Cenovus is off its support level, and attempting a trend. Oil tends to do best in the spring. If we see any kind of a rally around $15, he'd sell.

TOP PICK

If there is a recession, oil probably won't perform well. Dividend yield of about 4.5% is good, and it's not just a commodity price taker. If there is money flow back into Canadian energy, they will be the first to profit.
