Tudor, Pickering, Holt on Wednesday maintained its buy rating on the shares of Topaz Energy (TPZ.TO) with a C$29.00 price target after the oil and gas royalty and infrastructure company reported fourth-quarter results.
"Positive and anticipating relative outperformance today, supported by a solid Q4'25 to finish off the year, with FY'26 guidance in-line. On Q4'25 financials, C$0.52 CFPS (and FCF) headlined results, better vs. consensus (middling TPHe/Street C$0.54/C$0.50). Compared to our model, better-than-expected production, infra revenue (C$24.3MM vs. TPHe C$22.1MM), light/medium oil realizations, NGL realizations, opex, and hedge gains were offset by misses on heavy oil realizations, gas realizations, marketing, and G&A. That said, TPZ's beat on capex (C$0.9MM ex-acquisitions vs. TPHe/Street C$1.5MM/C$1.7MM) solidified stronger-than-expected FCF vs. consensus (C$79.7MM vs. TPHe/Street C$81.9MM/C$76.3MM), and represented a 92% FCF margin in Q4'25 and resulted in a 91% FCF margin for FY'25. On volumes, Q4'25 royalty production of 23.4mboepd was ahead of TPHe/Street 23.1/23.1, with liquids of 6.9mbopd also better vs. TPHe/Street 6.7/6.8. On 2026 guidance, the outlook calls for FY'26 royalty production of 23.5-23.9mboepd (+6% y/y) vs. TPHe/Street 23.3/23.7, and infrastructure revenue of C$92-94MM (similar y/y pre-acquisitions; TPHe $104.1MM), with the framework underpinned by 27-30 active rigs currently on acreage," analyst Jeoffrey Lambujon wrote.
