GoodMoat Analysis

Based on data as of March 26, 2026

Read full analysis
Coterra Energy is an independent exploration and production (E&P) company operating in the Permian Basin and other major U.S. shale plays. Its business is extracting and selling oil and natural gas, making its financial performance heavily tied to commodity prices. The company exhibits strong operational quality, with a robust 32.1% operating margin, a 22.5% profit margin, and a healthy ROE of 11.6%. Its balance sheet is solid, with a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.26, and it generates a free cash flow yield of 6.1%. Applying the GoodMoat framework, Coterra's moat score is likely low. The E&P sector is highly competitive with low switching costs and few durable advantages beyond operational scale and cost efficiency, which are difficult to score highly on the 14-point moat criteria. However, the company passes the initial quality gate with strong profitability and financial health. The most compelling aspect is the valuation. The stock trades at a P/E of 15.6x and a price of $35.18, which is a 59% discount to the GoodMoat target of $85.01. This suggests a significant margin of safety, placing it in the 'Deeply Undervalued' band per the framework's DCF bands. For a value investor, this represents a classic scenario: a financially sound business in a cyclical industry priced at a deep discount to estimated intrinsic value, warranting further investigation into the sustainability of its cash flows and the commodity price assumptions behind the target. Analysis based on data as of 2024-05-15.
