Tourmaline Oil (TSX:TOU) Valuation Check After Quarterly Dividend Confirmation

Simply Wall St · 1d ago

Tourmaline Oil (TSX:TOU) just reaffirmed its income story, declaring a CAD 0.50 quarterly cash dividend payable December 31 to shareholders on record as of December 15, designated as an eligible dividend for Canadian tax purposes.

See our latest analysis for Tourmaline Oil.

The dividend affirmation lands while Tourmaline’s share price has climbed around 13% over the past quarter to about CA$65.50. However, its year to date share price return is still slightly negative, and long term total shareholder returns remain very strong, suggesting momentum may be rebuilding as investors re-rate its income and growth profile.

If this income story has you thinking more broadly about opportunities in energy and beyond, it could be a good moment to explore fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.

With shares still down year to date, trading about 11% below consensus targets, and boasting robust earnings growth, should investors view Tourmaline as undervalued, or is the market already pricing in its future expansion?

Most Popular Narrative: 9.9% Undervalued

With Tourmaline’s shares last closing at CA$65.50 against a narrative fair value of about CA$72.71, this framework points to meaningful upside potential driven by long term growth.

Strategic build-out of low-cost, high-margin inventory in the Northeast BC Montney, with associated infrastructure owned by Tourmaline, positions the company for meaningful production growth to 850,000 BOE/d by early next decade. At flat pricing, this will more than double annual free cash flow, supporting higher future dividend payments and potential buybacks.
