MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Suncor Energy
Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Suncor Energy Inc.:

  • Suncor Energy Inc. recently reported strong financial performance in its latest quarterly earnings, delivering $2.33 in earnings per share which exceeded the consensus estimate of $2.14, while also generating $13.41 billion in revenue against expectations of $11.68 billion, demonstrating robust operational efficiency and profitability with a net margin of 15.62%.
  • The company offers a compelling income stream with a current dividend yield of 2.60%, supported by a sustainable payout ratio of 32.04%, which allows the firm to maintain its $0.60 quarterly dividend payment while retaining sufficient capital for future growth initiatives and debt management.
  • Wall Street analysts maintain a positive outlook on the stock, assigning it a consensus rating of Moderate Buy with an average price target of $80.25, which suggests significant upside potential from the current trading levels, reinforced by recent upgrades from firms like Scotiabank and Weiss Ratings.
  • Investors can benefit from the stock's low beta of 0.30, indicating that Suncor Energy Inc. exhibits significantly less volatility than the broader market, making it a potentially stable addition to a diversified portfolio during periods of market uncertainty.
  • The stock is currently trading at $68.39, which is near its 52-week high of $70.29, reflecting strong momentum and institutional interest, as evidenced by recent new positions acquired by major investors such as BlackRock Inc. and the Public Employees Retirement System of Ohio.

Suncor Energy
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Suncor Energy Inc. for these reasons:

  • Short interest in the stock has surged significantly, rising by 76.6% in August to reach 23,419,730 shares, which represents 2.0% of the float and indicates that a substantial number of traders are betting against the stock's future performance.
  • Some major institutional investors have recently reduced their exposure to the company, such as Mufg Securities Canada LTD., which cut its holdings by 5.4% during the second quarter, suggesting that certain large players may be taking profits or reassessing their long-term outlook.
  • The stock's price-to-earnings ratio of 12.59 may be considered high relative to its historical averages or peers in the integrated oil and gas sector, potentially limiting the margin of safety for value-oriented investors who seek lower valuation multiples.
  • Despite recent earnings beats, the company's earnings per share for the most recent quarter of $2.33 is lower than the $2.29 GAAP EPS reported in the same period last year, which could raise concerns about the sustainability of non-GAAP adjustments and underlying profitability trends.
  • The stock has experienced a recent pullback, closing at $68.39 after a previous close of $68.99, and with a days-to-cover ratio of 4.01, the high short interest could lead to increased volatility and potential downward pressure if the broader energy sector faces headwinds.
