Overview Of Value Stocks In The Energy Sector

The Meaning Behind Value Stocks

A value stock is traditionally defined in terms of how investors in the marketplace are valuing that company's future growth prospects. Low P/E multiples are good base indicators that the company is undervalued and can most likely be labelled as a value stock.

Below is a list of notable value stocks in the energy sector:

  1. Hoegh LNG Partners HMLP - P/E: 7.5
  2. Eni E - P/E: 4.76
  3. Vista Energy VIST - P/E: 5.14
  4. TransGlobe Energy TGA - P/E: 2.34
  5. California Resources CRC - P/E: 6.92

Hoegh LNG Partners has reported Q1 earnings per share at $0.49, which has increased by 32.43% compared to Q4, which was 0.37. Its most recent dividend yield is at 0.44%, which has decreased by 0.13% from 0.57% in the previous quarter.
