National Bank Financial on Thursday maintained its outperform rating on the shares of Paramount Resources (POU.TO) and its $40.00 price target after the company sold producing properties in the Montney shale field in Western Canada to Ovintiv (OVV.TO. OVV) for $3.3 billion.
"True to form, and very much on-brand, the company has crystallized meaningful value and upside through the disposition of its mature assets, to refocus on high-impact growth in earlier-stage assets (very much its DNA). We implicitly trust this team to repeat its historical value strategy, continuing to compound value over the long term through organic growth; POU trades at 3.9x 2025e EV/DACF (vs. peers 4.2x), while the narrative on the reset (through special dividends and reinvestment rate) should dictate the ultimate value opportunity over the long term," analyst Dan Payne wrote.
