On Wednesday, BMO Capital Markets increased its price target for Topaz Energy Corp (TPZ:CN) (OTC: TPZEF) shares, a Canadian royalty and infrastructure energy company, from Cdn$27.00 to Cdn$29.00, while reaffirming its Outperform rating. The adjustment reflects the firm's recognition of Topaz's advantageous position in the current economic climate, characterized by inflationary pressures.
The company's unique stance is attributed to its status as a royalty company, which inherently provides several benefits. BMO Capital Markets specifically highlighted Topaz's portfolio of young infrastructure assets and its royalties in the most productive areas of the basin, including both mineral title and Gross Overriding Royalties (GORRs).
The analyst from BMO Capital Markets noted the company's strategic approach to acquisitions, emphasizing that although acquisitions have been infrequent, they demonstrate quality and value.
This is exemplified by Topaz's recent acquisition of a 50% stake in the Musreau facility, a newly constructed asset by Whitecap Resources (OTC:SPGYF), at an attractive multiple of approximately 7.5 times Net Operating Income (NOI).
Topaz Energy's business model and strategic acquisitions are seen as particularly resilient and advantageous in the face of economic uncertainties. The revised price target reflects the firm's confidence in Topaz's ability to navigate the current market conditions and capitalize on its distinctive assets and business strategy.
