Winston Score History

The full picture

Cavvy Energy (formerly known as Peyto Exploration & Development) is a Canadian oil and gas company focused on finding and producing natural gas in Alberta's Deep Basin. It sells natural gas and natural gas liquids mainly to energy markets across western Canada. The company is one of the lower-cost natural gas producers in the region, operating a concentrated land position it has drilled for many years.

Cavvy makes money by extracting natural gas from underground wells and selling it at market prices. It operates entirely in Alberta, Canada, and has a market cap around $0.5 billion. Its deep knowledge of the Deep Basin geology and vertically integrated operations — including its own gas processing plants — help keep costs down. However, the company's profitability depends heavily on natural gas prices, which can swing widely, and its narrow operating margins leave limited room for error if commodity prices stay low.
