" (3/22/2017)
• 2. Seaport Global Securities analysts commented, "After catching up with management ahead of this week's Analyst Day, we expect the update to highlight the company's 2017/2018 outlook (second rig likely coming by mid-2017), enhanced completions (Gen 3 completions outperforming type curves by >20%, which haven't been updated since the IPO in 2014), and current acreage footprint (likely indicates an expanded position in the liquids-rich condensate area). Management had previously estimated that a one-rig program could generate 30% growth in 2017 (with capex of $200MM-$225MM) and a 25% two-year CAGR through 2018, and that the addition of a second rig in mid-2017 would allow for a two-year CAGR of >40% (likely pushes 2017 capex closer to $300MM). We note that current SGS/Street estimates call for 40%/39% growth in 2017 from $302MM/$238MM spend and a two-year CAGR of 48%/35%, respectively. As it pertains to the quarter, we expect production to come in at the high-end of guidance (245.0-250.0 MMcfepd vs. SGS/Street both at 250.0 MMcfepd); additionally, we expect realized oil and NGL prices to come in strong vs. guidance (SGS at $7.00 below NYMEX/42% of WTI for oil/NGLs vs. guidance of $7.00-$9.00 below NYMEX/35%-40% of WTI, respectively). We're updating our estimates post our conversation with management, and increasing our NAV-based price target to $4.00 (vs. $3.50 previously) after making some adjustments to our type curve assumptions; we are also upgrading our rating to Buy (from Neutral). ECR is the cheapest NE gas name while offering good compression in out-year multiples (FY17 projected EV/EBITDA of 5.1x moves to 3.8x in FY20) and is the best debt-adjusted grower in the group (27% vs. peers at 17%)."
