2024-12-09
Reason
Wells Fargo analyst Roger Read upgraded Hess Corp. (HES) to Overweight from Equal Weight with a price target of $193, up from $151. The firm says Shell (SHEL) and Hess are its 2025 top picks within exploration and production. Despite a lackluster oil price forecast, Wells expects the oil and gas sector will deliver positive returns in 2025 via spending discipline, the analyst tells investors in a research note. For Hess, the firm sees two distinct paths to value. First, the merger with Chevron (CVX) closes, and second, the merger doesn't happen and Hess reverts to an independent company valued off its "unique" Guyana asset.

2024-12-06
Reason
Citi raised the firm's price target on Hess Corp. to $163 from $145 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm says midstream performance in 2024 suggests that energy is investable again. However, for exploration and production companies, the challenge is that crude markets still appear well-supplied, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Thus, Citi feel it "appears premature" to be bullish crude leverage, but notes the business climate and buybacks "should act as shock absorbers if crude deflates."

Reason
Susquehanna raised the firm's price target on Hess Corp. to $154 from $149 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm updated its estimates ahead of Q3 results while maintaining its second half 2025 and 2025 gas and oil assumptions. They view the pricing bias to the downside, given a weakening demand environment and potential unwinding of OPEC+ cuts, but see geopolitical concerns as the wild card due to potential supply disruptions. Looking to 2025, companies are largely focused on their maintenance capital programs, with the ability to flex down activities if pricing deteriorates.

Reason
BMO Capital analyst Phillip Jungwirth raised the firm's price target on Hess Corp. to $160 from $155 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares as part of a broader research note adjusting BMO's model on the Energy sector. The firm is revising its estimates for the North American Oil and Gas group, U.S. refiners, and Canadian oilfield services companies, noting that crude prices plunged in September, and BMO expects prices to remain near current levels over the balance of the year, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Reason
Wolfe Research upgraded Hess Corp. to Outperform from Peer Perform with a $150 price target. Hess shares have lagged peers since its Chevron merger was announced, but on any realistic arbitration scenario, the gap versus the underlying value has reset the risk/reward of the stand alone investment case, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Wolfe says the scenarios for the potential merger with Chevron have aligned to position the shares with an attractive risk/reward.
