The Globe and Mail reports in its Thursday edition that RBC Dominion Securities analyst Keith Mackey rates CES Energy Solutions ($2.30) "sector perform." The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that Mr. Mackey targets the shares at $3. Analysts on average target the shares at $4.57. Mr. Mackey says in a note: "We see CES's recurring revenue exposure from its production chemicals division and international presence as clear investment positives. We believe the key to rerating lies in improved growth and margin realization outlook from its position in the North American drilling fluids market and currently see higher potential return prospects in other names."
