Re: Cimarex Energy Q2 Results
I have updated my forecast for Cimarex and it will be posted to the EPG website this evening.
I have raised my valuation by $2.50/share to $146.00, which compares to First Call's price target of $128.72.
Each time I take a hard look at Cimarex, I am reminded what a rock solid company this is. In addition to annual production and proven reserve growth in the 16% to 18% range, they have a decade of running room and a strong balance sheet. They also give conservative guidance and actual production regularly comes in at or above the high end of their guidance.
BTW they are funding their growth almost entirely with cash flow from operations.
Cimarex has two core areas, the Permian Basin and the Mid-Continent (STACK).
