The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that Desjardins Securities analyst Chris MacCulloch has reaffirmed his "buy" recommendation for Advantage Energy. The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that Mr. MacCulloch tweaked his share target lower by 25 cents to $13. Analysts on average target the shares at $12.51. Mr. MacCulloch says in a note: "Our top pick in the small/mid-cap natural gas space is AAV [Advantage Energy], which offers 14-per-cent PPS growth, augmented by share repurchases with 100 per cent of FCF currently allocated to buybacks. We also anticipate a meaningful acceleration in CCS developments this year for Entropy in the U.S. and Canada, the latter of which will be backstopped by the recent partnership with the Canada Growth Fund." The Globe reported on Nov. 29 that Stifel analyst James Hodgins said it was a good time to buy Advantage. It was then worth $9.77.
