Strong Buy

Reason

UBS analyst Peyton Dorne initiated coverage of Magnolia Oil & Gas with a Buy rating and $26 price target. The company's "strong" capital returns, capital efficiency, and high production per share growth drive a favorable outlook, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says a premium multiple is warranted given Magnolia's "top-tier" balance sheet that supports capital returns amid lower oil prices. It sees a favorable entry point at current share levels.

Reason

Piper Sandler lowered the firm's price target on Magnolia Oil & Gas to $25 from $26 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm sees a tricky set up into Q1 prints amid a trade-war and overall macro uncertainty paired with increased OPEC+ supply and a messy seasonal gas tape. While periods of volatility certainly provide entry opportunities in names with deep low-cost inventory and strong balance sheets, for a group where reversion and positioning have also had a big impact on shorter term performance, Piper has a bit of a stronger bias toward oil vs gas heading into Q1.

Susquehanna analyst Charles Minervino lowered the firm's price target on Magnolia Oil & Gas to $30 from $31 and keeps a Positive rating on the shares. The firm lowered its 2025 oil price assumption to around $68/bbl and 2026/long-term assumption to $67/bbl. Tariffs have lowered global demand estimates and pushed down oil prices to begin 2Q as recession fears climb. OPEC+ is also beginning to unwind its 2.2MM barrels of voluntary production cuts beginning in April, adding significant supply back into the market.

Reason

JPMorgan analyst Zach Parham lowered the firm's price target on Magnolia Oil & Gas to $24 from $28 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm have refreshed its exploration and production models, including its natural gas supply-demand analysis, after digesting 2025 producer capex budgets, updated winter degree day data, and stronger than expected liquified natural gas demand pull. The combination of record U.S. oil supply, the return of OPEC+ barrels in April, and global trade risk amid tariffs could result in a further decline in oil prices to force higher cost barrels out of the market, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
