Valuation

Whitecap Resources

Pretty balanced between oil and natural gas. Really well run, paid down debt. Good opportunities to do tuck-in acquisitions in Western Canada. Because of new pipeline that's come on, benefited from narrowing of WTI-WCS spread. Production grows ~5% a year. More torque than the bigger players. Very nice 7% yield.

BUY
Whitecap Resources

Good, diversified portfolio of light-oil properties, which are always in demand. Great positions in Alberta and elsewhere. Fairly good last quarter. Well managed, consistent. Good dividend, with a good chance that it can expand. Fairly inexpensive relative to some others.

Whitecap Resources
Bought 9 years ago around $14.

Pretty healthy yield of 6.9%, which is why most investors own it. Good exposure to economic wells in the Duvernay. You need a catalyst for investors to see your company in a different light. Daring to dream that oil gets to $80 in a year and a bit, share price should be ~$15.25.

TOP PICK
Whitecap Resources

Believes energy is due for strength. Very good management team with high quality assets. Current share price presenting value for investors. Good at execution between drilling and M&A. Would recommend as a good long term investment. Dividend is also very safe for income oriented investors. CEO also has a lot of insider ownership.

BUY
Whitecap Resources

Owns shares in income fund. ~7% yield which is very sustainable. Strong management team. Dividend takes up portion of cash flow, but at $70 very strong. Not too affected by weak natural gas prices - majority is oil production.

WEAK BUY
Whitecap Resources

Likes it, but can't own everything. Ongoing M&A concern, as management really likes to do deals which requires debt, creating an overhang on the stock. Q2 was exceptional, higher production and lower capex. Good results in Duvernay with incredibly economic wells. 

13-15% free cashflow yield. Yield is 7%, very sustainable.

TOU vs. WCP

Loves both, and recently put money into both.

DON'T BUY
Whitecap Resources

Concern that it's going to be active in M&A, which creates an overhang on the stock, so it's not appealing. Recently sold mid-stream assets, will use proceeds for share buybacks.

BUY
Whitecap Resources

Very good dividend that is safe. Production and earnings continue to beat expectation. Capex unchanged (good for business). Company valuation very fair (in line with peers). Strong management team with quality assets. Expecting further stock buybacks and maybe a dividend raise.

COMMENT
Whitecap Resources

This was another question on which company she prefers.. They are both doing well. Her company owns CNQ which has a very good, conservative management team and good assets. It buys assets at rock bottom prices and has a good mix. They can now pay back 100% of free cash flow to investors. WCP is light oil which has a higher decline rate but the management team is doing well making the wells last longer.

WAIT
Whitecap Resources

Really well run. Really solid. If he were in the space, it's one of the better names to be in. For him right now, he sees commodity potential in uranium, fertilizer, and copper. Not oil.

HOLD
Whitecap Resources

Not investing in mid-cap energy space. Would rather own a natural gas name. Not overly bullish on oil prices. Would rather own CNQ for oil exposure. Strong company, but not buying.

PAST TOP PICK
Whitecap Resources
(A Top Pick May 31/23, Up 19%)

Underperformed the index. Sold it from his main fund. Kept it in his income fund, as dividend is very dependable. Perception of relentless M&A, investors are tired of this, creates overhang. A $15 price is reasonable. Yield is 7%. 

Better opportunities elsewhere for capital appreciation.

Whitecap Resources

A great dividend payer, but there's a perception that they keep buying assets when they have enough. He projects 45% upside, so attractive, but that overhang remains.

COMMENT
Whitecap Resources

It's mispriced and should be higher. Are active acquirers which creates overhangs. The street perceives them as liking to do deals, so sentiment is poor, which is baffling. Until this perception changes, WCP will lag. But he likes their free cash flow yield and other metrics.
