Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Carrizo Oil & Gas (NASDAQ: CRZO) price target of $44.00.
Analyst, John Gerdes, said, "We expect 2012 to prove an inflection point for Comstock as the company ramps to a three-rig program in the Eagle Ford and a five-rig program in the Permian while downshifting to one rig in the Haynesville. We believe this pivot should lead to a tripling of Comstock’s liquids output this year. Additionally, we anticipate multiple liquidity events over the next year including a ~$100 million increase in the company’s borrowing base (to $800 million by year-end ’12), ~$100 million of term debt, ~$100 million of non-core property sales net of borrowing base reduction (10 Mmcfepd, 75% natural gas) and ~$50 million for the sale of Comstock’s Stone Energy (NYSE: SGY) shares (~2 million shares)."
