Gabriele Sorbara has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Ovintiv’s strong operational execution and financial performance. The company exceeded expectations in its recent quarterly results, particularly in oil and condensate production, which surpassed both estimates and guidance. This operational success has led to an increase in the company’s production guidance for 2025, alongside a reduction in capital expenditure forecasts, indicating improved capital efficiencies.
Moreover, Ovintiv’s valuation appears attractive compared to its peers, with the company trading at a lower EV/EBITDA multiple and offering a superior free cash flow yield. These financial metrics, combined with strategic moves such as diversifying its Montney natural gas exposure through new supply agreements, support the positive outlook. Consequently, Sorbara has raised the price target for Ovintiv’s stock, reaffirming the Buy rating based on these favorable valuation and operational factors.
In another report released today, Barclays also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $57.00 price target.
