BUY

Share buybacks total 35-40% in the last 4-5 years. Likes that.

HOLD

Frustrating. NAV is above $30/share, and shares lag this. Continues to like it though; they are doing the right things by growing cash flow. Margins are tremendous because the costs of producing oil in Colombia is low. Plus, they're getting better routes to market with pipelines. Are exposed to Brent Oil instead of WCS, so prices they get are better. They are buying 10% of outstanding shares each year, a big amount. Happy to hold.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Being debt free and the largest independent oil and gas producer in Colombia, we reiterate PXT as a TOP PICK.  The company has demonstrated over 15% annual growth in per-share production and reserves over the past five years.  Cash reserves are growing, while shares are bought back.  It trades at 5x earnings, 1.2x book and supports a 35% ROE.  We continue to recommend a stop-loss at $24, looking to achieve $35 -- upside potential of 30%.  Yield 3.1%

(Analysts’ price target is $34.91)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate PXT, the Canadian-based largest independent energy producer in Colombia, as a TOP PICK.  The company is on track to hit 55 Mboed production guidance for the year.  It trades at 6x earnings, 1.3x book value and supports a ROE of 35%.  Cash reserves are growing, while they aggressively buy back shares and retire debt.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $23) to $24, looking to achieve $35 -- upside potential of 25%.  Yield 3.0%  

(Analysts’ price target is $35.21)

BUY

Low-cost operator in Colombia. Production growing at high-single digit pace. Political unrest behind them. Expects to meet guidance. Cash rich, no debt. Covertly taking the company private. Initiated dividend, special dividend. Cheap at 5x earnings. Likely to outperform in a less than robust commodity environment that we have now.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

PXT is the largest independent energy producer in Colombia and we reiterate it as a TOP PICK.  Recently reported earnings show per share reserves growing faster than production (both exceed 16% annually over the past five years).  The company targets to return 100% of free cash flows to investors, while it continues to buy back shares.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $19) to $23, looking to achieve $34 -- upside potential of 25%.  Yield 4.2%

(Analysts’ price target is $33.65)

DON'T BUY

Not a great company to own.
Value trap that has geopolitical risk.
Better names to own in sector.
Very risky buy.
Inventory depth not as great.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

This TOP PICK is a Canadian based energy producer in Colombia that has successfully increased reserves for 12 consecutive years and increased production 11% over the year (81% oil vs 19% natural gas).  It announced a 50% increase in dividends and is aggressively buying back shares.  We recommend a stop-loss at $19, looking to achieve $35 — upside potential over 45%.  Yield 2.4%

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Mar 28/22, Down 12%)

A year ago, oil prices spiked sharply because of the Russian war. Also, a leftist government won the Colombia election so there was a fear of higher royalties paid. Still likes Parex: debt-free, pays nearly a 4% dividend and are buying back lots of shares.

oil / gas
BUY
Still owns shares. Best in class producer. Low cost operator with strong financial results. Shares have lagged broad energy index. Does not think political risk a factor.
oil / gas
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 02/21, Down 9%) Not immune to impact of commodity prices. Recently, oil has cooled off, so he's capped oil and gas exposure. Best in class. Nice dividend. Taking itself private. Super cheap. Bit of political risk, nothing it can't handle.
oil / gas
DON'T BUY
Too much uncertainty with company. Better names to invest in. Windfall tax in Colombia a big risk. Political situation in Colombia getting worse.
oil / gas
BUY
55K barrels of oil a day in Colombia. Political risk, but tax changes would have to be cataclysmic to affect PXT. One of the lowest-cost producers on the TSX. Profitable at sub-$30 oil. Growing production. ROE 36%. Cheap at 2.5x next year's earnings, 3.5x this year's. No debt, lots of cash on balance sheet, buying back stock.
oil / gas
BUY
Based on Calgary, but all production comes out of Colombia. Their government is changing, is more leftist, so there are concerns over land leases and drilling rights for foreign oil companies. Parex is cash-flow strong and produces over 50,000 barrels a day, and pays more than a 3% dividend. It has bought back 30% of its shares and continues to. Shares should ebb and flow with oil prices. Their wells don't cost a lot of cash. He's owned this for a long time and keeps adding shares.
oil / gas
BUY
Good buy if outlook for petroleum is favorable. Favorable track record for exploration in political risky country. Safer names out there, but good buy for risk oriented investors.
