Morningstar | We Are Lowering Our Crescent Point Fair Value Estimate; Stock Remains in 3-Star Territory

We are lowering our fair value estimate on no-moat Crescent Point Energy to $4 (CAD 5.50) from our previous estimate of $6 (CAD 7.50) to reflect our lower near-term commodity price forecasts--with the stock trading near $3.00 (CAD 4.50). Accordingly, it is trading in 3-star territory due to its extreme uncertainty, and we suggest that investors remain on the sideline.

Although we consider Crescent Point's assets to contain several low-cost resource plays, high finding and developing costs on the firm's emerging assets dilutes the company's cost structure. Consequently, full-cycle breakeven prices exceed $60 per barrel of West Texas Intermediate, which compares unfavorably to our midcycle forecast of $55/bbl WTI.

We are maintaining our no-moat rating.
