Permian Resources Expects Another Excellent Quarter, Analysts Remain Bullish

Truist Securities's Neal Dingmann raised their price target on Permian Resources (NYSE: PR) by 4.5% from $22 to $23 on 2024/04/22. The analyst maintained their Strong Buy rating on the stock.

Dingmann's price target hike was delivered in a preview of Permian Resources' Q1 2024 earnings, scheduled for release on 2024/05/07. The company manages to make impressive operational results appear easy, the analyst told investors. Solid organic activity, including significant former Earthstone Energy assets like the Novo Oil & Gas position, account for their expectation of "another excellent quarter," Dingmann detailed.

This positive outlook from Dingmann aligns with the consensus among analysts, with 81.8% of top-rated analysts currently rating PR as a Strong Buy or Buy. Only 18.2% see it as a Hold, and no analysts recommend or strongly recommend selling the stock.

Another analyst, Susquehanna's Biju Perincheril, also issued an update on PR on 2024/04/22. Perincheril raised their price target by 12.5%, from $16 to $18, and maintained their Hold rating on the stock.

Looking ahead, the consensus forecast among analysts is that PR's upcoming year will deliver earnings per share (EPS) of $2.06. If the analysts are right, PR's next yearly EPS will be up by an impressive 51.5% on a year-over-year basis.

Investors have reason to be optimistic about Permian Resources' performance. Since the company's last quarterly report on 2023/12/31, the stock price has risen by 26.3%. Year-over-year, the stock is up a remarkable 61.8%. During that period, PR has outpaced the S&P 500, which is up 21.1%.
