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.
Chart shows a long uptrend from early 2012, followed by a few declining peaks this year, and broke down through the trendline. Trying to bounce from an old support level which is good. If it can hold and doesn't break below $40 for a little while longer, it might be just a great story to get back into the old support level somewhere near $50. He would like to see a little more proof of that happening.
This is a company with a production of about 108,000 barrels equivalent, of mostly natural gas. A very, very well-run company. Very seldom that you are going to find an oil/gas company this size that can continue to put up 30% per share growth numbers. The big question for him is how long they can keep it up. Thinks what the market didn't like in their earnings release was that they are now getting infusions of joint venture dollars of about $1 billion to accelerate some developments.
Thinks you can buy this one here and just hold your nose a little. This company has always been very, very well financed. Have always been ahead of the game in funding their exploration programs. This gives you an opportunity to buy it at 6X cash flow for next year. The cheapest valuation that this company has been at since it went public almost 4 years ago.
If you liked it at $50 you have to like it a lot more at $39. You want a half position or less in your portfolio. You have to trim so you can add it back when it bottoms. It could potentially fall a lot lower if the momentum picks up to the downside. Never average down, but average into your position.
This is one of the better companies that we have in Canada. Gold plated management team with some high quality assets. Thinks there will be acceleration in production because they are ramping up their capital spending in the number of drill rigs they are employing. We should have a fairly reasonable year in gas prices and this company should perform as well, if not better than the rest of the group.
A natural gas producer. If she got really bullish on natural gas, she would buy this. It’s a low cost producer. It is on her watch list. They have all pulled back. In the oil patch, she has tended to stay with smaller producers, which this one is. She would rather own a company that pays a dividend.
(A Top Pick Nov 19/13. Up 18.82%.) Very, very experienced strong management team that has delivered. Had a very marginal miss last quarter. Cash flow growth and production growth is going to be great over the next 2 years. Their forecasts show the debt being repaid. They are always expanding and building their infrastructure.
