Capital One Southcoast reiterates an 'Add' rating on Unit Corp (NYSE: UNT), raises price target from $38 to $48.

Capital One analyst says, "UNT's E&P exposure to unconventional plays, in particular the Granite Wash and Haynesville, is beginning to take the spotlight. We believe there will be near-term catalysts from well results from UNT and other operators in these areas and believe the market will begin to reward the stock for that potential. As a result we are increasing our target price to incorporate value for acreage in the Granite Wash and highlighting additional potential upside to our target from unconventional plays."
