PPL: Long-Term LNG Contracts Will Support Margins And Undervalued Upside

Analysts have nudged their price target on Pembina Pipeline slightly lower, trimming fair value by about $0.33 to roughly $58.72 per share, as they factor in more modest revenue growth expectations, partly offset by a marginal improvement in projected profit margins and a slightly cheaper future earnings multiple. What's in the News Pembina and PETRONAS subsidiaries signed a 20-year agreement for 1.0 mtpa of liquefaction capacity at the USD 4 billion Cedar LNG project, which remains on time and on budget with an expected in-service date in late 2028 (Key Developments).

SU: Double Digit Free Cash Flow Yield Will Support Strong Capital Returns

The analyst price target for Suncor Energy has been nudged higher to approximately C$66.70 from about C$66.50, as analysts factor in stronger sustaining free cash flow yields and updated multi year guidance that supports a modestly higher valuation multiple despite slightly softer growth and margin assumptions. Analyst Commentary Bullish analysts highlight that Suncor's valuation is increasingly supported by a double digit sustaining free cash flow yield, which screens attractively versus peers and underpins the modest upward revision in the consolidated price target.

Analysts have nudged their price target on Cameco modestly higher to reflect a slightly faster projected revenue growth rate and only marginally lower long term margin and valuation assumptions, which together support a fair value estimate of about $150.81 per share. Analyst Commentary Recent research updates reflect a generally constructive stance on Cameco, with analysts modestly increasing their price targets as they recalibrate assumptions for revenue growth, long term margins, and the broader uranium cycle.

ENB: Future Returns Will Depend On U.S. Investment Shift And Dividend Durability

Enbridge's fair value estimate has nudged higher to approximately C$71.07 from about C$70.45, as analysts gradually lift price targets across the midstream peer group while factoring in slightly softer revenue growth, broadly stable margins, and a modestly higher future P/E multiple. Analyst Commentary Recent Street research on Enbridge reflects a generally constructive but still balanced stance, with incremental price target increases clustered in the mid C$60s to around C$70 and rating language that largely reinforces a hold or market perform view.
