Tourmaline Oil Corp (TOU), Canada's largest natural gas producer, is currently experiencing mixed reviews from analysts. While many highlight its strong management, solid fundamentals, and the strategic advantages from the LNG Canada project, concerns about capex spending and low prices for natural gas in Western Canada remain pertinent. Analysts express a cautious optimism, noting the potential for future price appreciation as LNG capacities ramp up. The stock has shown a consistent trading range, suggesting it may be a suitable buy at lower points within this range, but there is skepticism regarding near-term performance. The general sentiment reflects a waiting game as many investors anticipate stronger natural gas prices and believe that TOU will eventually benefit from long-term structural shifts in the energy market.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 13/20, Up 166%) Would buy again. Like many energy companies, it is no more expensive than where they were a year ago. Energy prices and natural gas in particular has moved up. The improved cashflow is now used to right balance sheets, pay dividends and other shareholder friendly moves. Great price momentum with 5x EBITDA which is still reasonable.
BUY

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: MIchael O'Reilly TOU continues to be well positioned for a continuation of energy price stabilization and is reiterated as a TOP PICK. It trades at 8x earnings, compared to peers at 36x. It is presently valued at under 1.5x book value. The company has consistently paid the (growing quarterly dividend over the past three years and it is backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow We recommend trailing up the stop to $39 (from $34 as previously recommended), looking to achieve $54 -- upside potential over 16%. Yield 1.49% (Analysts’ price target is $53.54)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 16/20, Up 169%) More bullish on oil than gas. With strip gas, they are well positioned to profit. If you want gas, this is a good play. He prefers Arx for gas with conduit but for a pure gas play, this name is a good choice.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 18/20, Up 155%) Still bullish for energy going into 2022. FMV based on 2022 earnings would be another 100% up from here, though not guaranteed of course. Don't sell right now.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 29/20, Up 170%) They are great operators. The balance sheet is in great shape. They did smart acquisitions. Everyone is starting to discover this name. It is still a decent valuation.
COMMENT
Doing exactly what he hoped the sector would do. Will see meaningful return of capital. Benefitted from spinning out Topaz. Has checked off a lot of the boxes. 63% upside is the current projection. Committed to base and special dividends.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 21/21, Up 28.1%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with TOU is progressing well. It has achieved its $43.50 objective. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering half the position here and trailing up the stop to $34 -- just above the original recommended entry level.
TOP PICK
Going through a major metamorphosis. Just raised dividend, plus a special dividend. They expect 2.5B in free cashflow next year, up from 1.6B this year. They want to return most free cash to shareholders. Balance sheet reformed, putting them in a strong position going forward. A sector that could have quite a good winter. Yield is 1.67%. (Analysts’ price target is $51.65)
TOP PICK
Natural gas is finally looking good. Fabulous balance sheet. Top-tier operator and capital allocator. Significant free cashflow, which can make its way to shareholders. Not expensive. Relatively unhedged. He sees 27% production growth and 66% cashflow per share growth. Score some nice points for the next 12-24 months. Yield is 1.66%. (Analysts’ price target is $49.05)
BUY

10.5B market cap. While it has oil, a lot of the upside for the stock comes from gas. Sale of their small holding of Topaz has also helped them. Could see a special dividend from the proceeds. A shareholder friendly company that bumps up the dividend over time. Low finding and drilling costs.

TOP PICK
Not an oil company. Rather, it's the best natural gas stock in North America with fine assets in the Montney and Alberta. Boasts a great balance sheet and reducing its debt that could lead to more exploration. It's the best way to play California's nat gas market, which has been mismanaged by CA's governor and leading to blackouts. It has potential LNG exposure, too. Pays a nice yield. Nat gas is the best commodity performer. (Analysts’ price target is $47.25)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 18/20, Up 78%) Long-term valuation, despite the huge share run-up, is still cheap. Natural gas is the one energy source that's favoured by anyone who hates carbon. Still likes this.
