Update: Resilient and leveraged to the upside

Despite macro headwinds, Parex’s operational strength is evident from material production growth in 2015 and a 114% increase in 2P reserves. Production guidance of 26.5mb/d (representing 18% growth y-o-y) has room for upside if exploration is successful, while the $145-155m should be fully funded at around $50-60/bbl oil prices. Our remodelled valuation indicates a RENAV of C$9.5/share, indicating upside to the shares even without exploitation of 3P reserves, which we see as likely in time and would take valuation to $10.2/share. Importantly, we see this value increasing in the coming years as production increases, supported by recovering oil prices.
