Why now
Oil & Gas E&P · market cap $7.5b. 9% off the 52-week high of $151.95. Revenue growing +19%, comfortably above the S&P median. 14 sell-side analysts rate this a Strong Buy with a mean 1-yr target of $162.71 (implying +18% upside).
Moat
Net margin 13% beats the market median by a meaningful margin — the company is keeping more of every revenue dollar than the average S&P constituent. ROE 10% meets the long-run market sustainable threshold — solid but not differentiated; the durability comes from elsewhere. FCF converts 140% of net income — earnings translate cleanly into cash, a sign that working capital and capex are well-disciplined.
Risk
Production-cost sensitivity — top-quartile cost producers generate cash through the cycle while marginal producers burn it; watch the cost-per-unit trend, not just headline revenue.
Horizon
1-3 yr $162.71 (14-analyst consensus) — fundamentals + valuation re-rating. 5 yr $238.23 at ~12% CAGR — compounding case rests on the competitive position widening. 10 yr $353.40 if current growth sustains into durable earnings power.

Chord Energy Corporation (CHRD): score, valuation & FAQ

Chord Energy Corporation (CHRD) is a Oil & Gas E&P company that scores 63 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a middling reading. The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.

Its strongest graded signals are D/E (A-), P/E (A-) and Rev (B+). On valuation, CHRD sits about 48% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety) — the current price implies roughly -17% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade.

Is CHRD a good stock to buy?

Bull Rankings scores CHRD 63 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by D/E (A-), P/E (A-) and Rev (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Chord Energy Corporation's fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.

Why does CHRD score 63 on Bull Rankings?

The quality-growth score blends three pillars — quality (returns on capital, margins, leverage, earnings quality), growth (revenue and earnings expansion), and value (valuation versus sector peers). CHRD earns its highest marks on D/E (A-), P/E (A-) and Rev (B+). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.

Is CHRD overvalued or undervalued?

Based on $137.58, CHRD sits about 48% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety) — the current price implies roughly -17% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 9.3x× P/E (graded A-). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.

What are the main risks of investing in CHRD?

Production-cost sensitivity — top-quartile cost producers generate cash through the cycle while marginal producers burn it; watch the cost-per-unit trend, not just headline revenue.
