UBS raised its price target for Whiting Petroleum (WLL) to $104 from $98 Thursday, reiterating its "buy" rating for the stock.

The analyst firm also raised its EPS estimates for Whiting following the company's strong second quarter which saw higher production and lower costs.

I am working on my forecast model now.

Whiting Petroleum (WLL): An updated Net Income & Cash Flow Forecast model has been posted under the Sweet 16 tab.

Since the merger with KOG has been announced, First Call's Price target has been increased more than $10/share.

My forecast model assumes the merger with KOG is closed early in the 4th quarter. Since it is a merger it doesn't really matter when it closes for a valuation. The shareholders will get the value for the combined company whenever it closes. There is always a small chance that any merger won't close, but in this case it is a very small risk.

My Fair Value Estimate is $121.70/share.
