Arc Resources Ltd

ARX-T

(A Top Pick Apr 05/18, Down 42%) He got stopped out. Crude prices have not rallied, so the stock has not improved. Energy is great value at the moment, but this would not be his first entry back into the space.

The disparity in oil stocks between fundamentals and share prices has never been wider, but ARX falls into a nice middle ground. It's been hit the last few days on weak gas prices, but two-thirds of cash flows are supported by oil, but they also have long-term exposure to LNG Canada and LPG export. Plus, they're marketing their products to the States. Well-run and you get paid a 7% dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $13.53)

Still on its long downtrend.

It is an ultra-high level quality company that has been impacted by its exposure to natural gas production. It only trades at 3-4 times cash flow, when it used to trade at 8 times. The lack of trading liquidity in the space is holding back valuations. The only knock is that they are outspending cash flow this year. A short term issue. A solid name.

Stock is cheap here. Pays a monthly dividend of almost 7%. Book value is $10.39. All natural gas stocks have been beat up. Paid down debt, and equity's gone up. Decent balance sheet. Sitting in the fairway that will benefit from LNG exports 3-4 years from now. Not on his list, but sees the merits of owning it.

He used to own it. A great company, but it produces natural gas in Northern BC. The market fundamentals are awful there. He sold out at $14 and he is glad to not own it.

He sold at the end of the year. This has historically been one of the best run companies. They are caught up in the lack of ability to get gas out of the country. You are getting paid to wait. Consider adding to it here. When these stocks go up, they go up a lot.

Pays a good dividend of 6.7%. He likes it now to play the energy sector. It's come down a lot over time but is now in a seasonal period. Lighten up around June.

One of the better operators in Alberta. But as underlying price drops, constant pressure on the company. At these levels, as long as you're at 100% payout ratio, you're probably fine. But if oil price dips, they'll have to reduce capex or dividends, and that's not growth. He's not looking at these levels.

26% of production is in liquids. Strong balance sheet in a depressed industry. PAys a 6.34% dividend (Analysts’ price target is $13.36)

Conservative management team. They have re-geared their business around the Montney region. Cash flow today is not a great reflection of what the future will be, he thinks. The dividend has held around 5-6% and he plans to hold for the long term. Yield 5.8%

The stock has been devastated. Debt is not a concern. They are producing well. It is a high quality name.

Is the dividend safe? He owned it a while ago. It is a really good company with good management and a pristine balance sheet. Even still the stock has not done well, due to the low natural gas prices and no sign of improvement. He is cautious on the dividend and thinks it depends on the natural gas price going forward. He would continue to hold it.

A great company, but the oil price is hurting them. 143% 2020 payout ratio, so the dividend is not safe. 6.5x earnings, cheaper than the past 5 years, but that's high compared to their peers. That said, it's a quality name. You can own this if you expect oil prices to rise.

(A Top Pick Jan 23/18, Down 26%) Another disappointment, but he'd still recommend it. Clean balance sheet, top-tier assets. Great future. Dividend's not in jeopardy. Sold assets to boost balance sheet possibly to buy assets coming up for sale.
