NuVista Energy shares fell Wednesday after the company said it expects lower fourth-quarter output due to an unplanned maintenance stoppage at a third-party gas plant.
Shares fell 3% to 13.08 Canadian dollars ($9.14).
The Calgary, Alberta-based energy company said Wednesday that it now expects fourth-quarter production to be between 83,000 and 84,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day, down from a previous expectation of 89,000 to 91,000 barrels a day.
According to FactSet, analysts expected production of 88,600 barrels a day for the quarter.
While the facility is currently being restarted, which is anticipated to bring production levels back above 90,000 barrels a day, full-year output is now expected to fall below the bottom end of the full-year range of 83,500 to 86,000 barrels a day.
Analysts expected production of 83,800 barrels a day for the year.
