EnCana Corporation (USA) Research Report

EnCana is also a major North American energy producer. The company's gas-rich formations in Canada and the US may appeal to companies looking to export the fuel to Asia. As several Asian economies grow, their demand for oil and natural gas also expand. Natural gas provides an environmentally cleaner alternative to coal, and the Asian communities are projected to require substantial amounts of natural gas in the future. For 2013, the company is planning to focus on its core activities. It has also sought to engage in partnerships to further support its growth. PetroChina Company is among the Chinese energy companies that are seeking to partner with North American gas producers like EnCana to secure future supplies. This year EnCana projects average daily liquids production to range from 60,000 to 70,000 oil barrels a day comprised of light oil and field condensate.

Lamar Advertising Co. Research Report

Investors are bullish on Lamar because the leading outdoor advertising firm's industry-level outlook is promising, as it upgrades its ad portfolio digitally. As digital billboards offer ad space to multiple customers, revenue per billboard is increased. In August, Lamar announced that it is considering converting its billboard business into a real estate investment trust, or REIT. As a REIT, the company can avoid paying corporate level income taxes as long as it distributes at least 90 percent of its taxable income to shareholders in the form of dividends. By converting into this new structure, the company could be valued at a higher multiple of earnings. Looking ahead, the company sees further gains if it goes beyond analysts' quarterly EPS estimates.
