Cost controls may be outpaced by regulatory burdens and evolving investor sentiment, pressuring margins and limiting valuation upside.
Key Takeaways Scale and integration from the MEG merger may drive industry-leading cost structure, greater synergy realization, and superior margin and EBITDA growth. Strategic asset shifts and infrastructure acquisitions strengthen earnings resilience, boost valuation, and position the company for long-term shareholder value and financial flexibility.
Key Takeaways Concentration in heavy oil and oil sands raises long-term risk from decarbonization trends, regulatory costs, and shrinking demand for fossil fuels. Reliance on capital-heavy projects and loss of diversification could reduce cash flow, increase liabilities, and threaten future earnings stability.
