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 sold its non-core offshore assets in Newfoundland, including stakes in the Terra Nova, White Rose, and West White Rose fields, to Ithaca Energy for approximately CA$1.55 billion, a move that allows the company to streamline its portfolio and focus capital on higher-return core operations while generating significant cash flow.
  • The stock is currently trading at $103.04, which is near its 52-week high of $103.36, indicating strong recent momentum and investor confidence as the company has consistently hit new 12-month highs throughout 2026, reflecting a robust upward trend in its market valuation.
  • Analyst sentiment remains positive with a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy" from thirteen research firms, and recent price target increases, such as National Bank Financial raising its target to C$146.00 and Raymond James to C$118.00, suggest that institutional investors expect further upside potential in the coming year.
  • The company offers a stable dividend yield of 2.33% with a sustainable payout ratio of 31.64%, providing income-focused investors with a reliable cash return that is well-covered by the company's strong earnings, which included C$3.23 per share in the most recent quarter.
  • Suncor Energy Inc. demonstrates strong financial health with a current ratio of 1.65 and a return on equity of 19.38%, indicating that the company is effectively managing its short-term liabilities and generating high returns for shareholders relative to its equity base.

Suncor Energy
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

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

  • The company is facing significant legal and regulatory risk as the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to hear arguments in the Suncor v. Boulder climate lawsuit, a high-stakes case that could result in substantial financial liabilities if the court rules against the energy company regarding climate damage claims.
  • Insider selling activity has been notable in the last 90 days, with corporate insiders selling a total of 79,792 shares valued at approximately $7.29 million, which may signal that company executives are taking advantage of the recent stock price rally to reduce their personal holdings.
  • The stock's current price of $103.04 is slightly above the average analyst price target of C$100.94, suggesting that the stock may be overvalued relative to the consensus view of its fair value, leaving limited room for further appreciation based on current estimates.
  • Suncor Energy Inc. carries a debt-to-equity ratio of 30.48, which is relatively high and indicates that the company relies significantly on debt financing, potentially increasing financial risk if interest rates rise or if commodity prices decline, affecting its ability to service debt obligations.
  • The company's quick ratio of 0.83 is below 1.0, meaning that its most liquid assets are insufficient to cover its short-term liabilities without relying on the sale of inventory, which could pose a liquidity challenge in a sudden market downturn or operational disruption.
