Vermilion Energy Inc. (VET-T) has garnered mixed reviews from experts, highlighting its diverse geographical exposure which includes assets in Europe, Australia, and Canada. While some analysts express concerns over the lack of focus and the company's extensive international footprint, others point out that recent management efforts to streamline operations and concentrate on Canadian assets are promising. The company is noted for having significant natural gas production, particularly in Europe, which is expected to benefit from rising demand amidst energy supply challenges. Despite being perceived as undervalued and having improved performance metrics, some experts caution about inherent volatility and urge vigilance regarding geopolitical impacts on gas prices. Overall, while there's optimism about future growth, particularly in natural gas, doubts about the company’s strategic execution and catalysts persist.

TOU
SELL
The price hasn't collapsed like its peers such as Baytex. But VET's fair market value at $24, so it's now pricey. VET is paying out way more than it's earning. No wonder the stock price is slipping. If this continues, VET's 8.8% dividend will be cut by a third just to equal earnings. The oil patch better turn around. Sell half of this.
SELL
He last time suggested to sell this and continues to worry about the dividend payout being too high. He sees 20% downside from his model valuation. Other than SU-T, he would not touch the Canadian energy sector. Yield 8%
HOLD
Very strong yield right now. Concerns over the dividend. This is one of the last things they want to do, so he thinks dividend is safe. A play on oil with a ton of assets outside Canada. (Analysts’ price target is $41.27)
COMMENT
WCP-T is a good mid-cap energy company, but he is not excited about the space right now. He is not looking to add in this environment, but when he returns WCP-T would be a great company. His largest holding is VET-T.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
They stand by their dividend, not cutting it in the last few years. 30% of their production is out of Canada. They have Australia, France, Germany, and the Netherlands. Below $40 it is a name you should own as an oil stock. (Analysts’ price target is $42.00)
BUY

Pays a good dividend which is safe unless oil plunges to $40, but he expects it to reach the mid-$50's to mid-$60's. They diversified their production into Europe and Australia which has helped their bottom line. A good move.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
About 8.7% yield. If the valuation backed off another dollar, it would be very attractive. At $28 it would be very attractive. (Analysts’ price target is $43.00)
BUY
He owns this in some of their income funds. Most of the assets are not in North America so they are avoiding all the Canadian mess right now. However, the stock still has been hit. For income investors, who understand dividends are not always safe, he would be a buyer here. He thinks the dividend is safe. Yield 8.5%. (Analysts’ price target is $43.00)
BUY
He sees 11% production growth, 8% cash flow per share growth which is not as good as it was, because oil prices have fallen. Good news: trading at 7.4x vs. 9.7x 5-year average. Okay balance sheet, but needs to see a better balance sheet in case the oil price falls. 116% payout ratio for 2020. The dividend is safe-ish. This one of the few dividend oil names you can own.
BUY
Depends not on WTI, but Brent oil, and Canadian as well as European natural gas prices. They have stable demand and good prices in Europe. This supports their dividend. They manage their capital well (i.e. has not overspent in acquisitions) over the years. Pays a 8.6% dividend.
TOP PICK
Likes it because of diversified asset base. More international of the oil & gas producers in Canada. Attractive yield. Doesn't get enough credit for having a high proportion of earnings getting Brent prices instead of WTI or WCS. Outstanding long-term buy at this valuation. Yield is 8.6%. (Analysts’ price target is $44.03)
HOLD

Mostly oil and mostly in Europe. It's held up well in this oil sell-off, though it got hit recently with the drop in international oil prices. Pays a fine dividend. Certainly hold onto this, but he's cautious about oil prices until they rise into the $60s. Prices are in contango now. A lot depends on Saudi Arabia; they cut back production, oil will leap into the $70s.

HOLD
Energy should get a bit of a pickup by the end of January. If not, then move into one of the stronger energy names.
COMMENT
Is this a good stock as a long term income hold? - Energy producers are not income stocks as they rely on the price of the commodity. (Analysts’ price target is $44.03)
HOLD
One of his very few energy holdings. He was buying back in December. About half the assets are overseas, yet it still got hit as hard as those with no international assets. The yield is near 9%. He likes the fact it derives a large portion of its revenues off Brent oil prices. He thinks the dividend can be sustained if oil prices can be sustained.
