Outperform

In Line

Reason

Evercore ISI analyst Stephen Richardson downgraded Canadian Natural to In Line from Outperform with an unchanged price target of C$50. The firm sees risks ahead for the company, saying higher capital spending will bring headwinds to its cash returns. Canadian Natural is "at the front end of a significant organic capital program and pivot to growth from the oil sands," the analyst tells investors in a research note. Evercore says this pivot will constrain shareholder returns in the immediate term.

Buy

Reason

Goldman Sachs lowered the firm's price target on Canadian Natural to $35 from $36 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm updated targets in the oil group to reflect its updated Brent crude assumptions. Challenging macro conditions for oil are now well appreciated by the market, so investors are likely to begin to value equities on 2027 free cash flow, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Equal Weight

Reason

Wells Fargo initiated coverage of Canadian Natural with an Equal Weight rating and C$47 price target. The firm rolled out coverage on the global integrated oil, Canadian majors, and refiners group, saying "everyone is bearish" on oil and energy names, which creates opportunities. Wells is picking stocks based on return of capital direction. Demand indicators are soft but U.S. onshore activity trends present a supply counter-balance, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes return of capital direction drives relative performance in the sector. It expects Chevron (CVX), Marathon Petroleum (MPC), Valero Energy (VLO), Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ), and Suncor Energy (SU) to remain leaders in dividend growth "across an array of commodity scenarios."

TD Securities raised the firm's price target on Canadian Natural to C$55 from C$49 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm updated its commodity price deck to capture Q3-to-date trends and introduced 2027 financial estimates. TD's oil price assumptions are relatively unchanged, and it adjusted crack spreads higher while making negative revisions to natural gas. Energy equities have been resilient through broader commodity weakness, which has driven valuations higher, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
