Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Talisman Energy (NYSE: TLM), PT C$27.50.

Canaccord analyst says, "We believe there is one key takeaway from TLM’s Q1 release yesterday: TLM, like others (outside of Nexen (NYSE: NXY)), seems to have fallen victim to a market that is eager to sell when there is anything less than earnings release perfection (this is possibly a risk for CNQ when it reports tonight). SU’s Q1 results earlier this week were decent and despite a positive April oil sands number, its share price declined on average 3% more than its peers. For TLM, news of a delay on Yme along with a messy EPS and CFPS headline, understated by inventory delays, added even more fuel to the fire and resulted in the stock falling roughly 6%, or 5% on average more than peers yesterday. Given this, we recommend taking advantage of any further underperformance in TLM’s share price."
