Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Key Energy Services (NYSE: KEG) price target of $19.00.
Analyst, Scott Burk, said, "KEG missed Q4 expectations on weak Argentina results and disruptions from repositioning assets out of NAm gas markets, an issue that could persist in H1/12. However, management still expects robust YoY revenue growth and improving profitability in 2012, which flows through to higher 2013 estimates."
"We continue to recommend KEG long-term as earnings and is more leveraged to oil production than most peers. With more than half of its revenue leveraged to producing wells, we think KEG can trade at a slightly higher multiple than the five-year average low that we use for targets for most of our coverage. Margins seem likely to continue growing slowly for production-oriented services like gas lift, workover rigs and fluid handling."
