What are Wall Street analysts saying about Devon Energy stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Devon Energy stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Devon Energy’s shares have underperformed its industry over the last six months. The company operates in a very highly competitive oil and gas industry, limited control over some of its properties and stringent regulations are headwinds. In addition, the falling oil prices is a concern. However, Devon Energy will continue to benefit from strong performance by its Delaware and STACK assets, as well as high quality of other domestic oil plays. Devon’s focus on high-margin production zones, cost savings and divestment of non-core assets is boosting its performance. Thanks to solid oil production and the performance of its domestic oil assets, the company is well poised to deliver a significant increase in U.S. oil production." (3/7/2019)
- 2. Stifel Nicolaus analysts commented, "We forecast revenue of $90.0 million, up 4.2% YOY. The consensus is $92.3 million. Services (ES) segment (66% of estimated revenue), we forecast revenue growth of 8.4% YOY to $59.7 million, as we project that the business will be able to maintain the high-single-digit growth rate achieved during the prior three quarters following significant investments in new sales personnel and branch openings."
