TickerTalks' own read on what's driving $CRGY — fundamentals, momentum, or an event — and whether it agrees with the X crowd.

Proven numbersAcceleratingAI verdict · as of 2026-09-18

The move is getting stronger, with heavier trading behind it.

Crescent Energy running on real 55% revenue growth and 23% FCF yield — up 68% YTD, still cheap.

Crescent Energy is a US-focused oil-and-gas exploration and production company — primarily Eagle Ford, Uinta, and other unconventional basins. The story is a value-plus-growth E&P benefiting from the current crude cycle.

  • The operating side is exceptional: Q2 revenue grew 55.3% YoY (Q1 was up 24.5%), TTM operating margin is 23%, TTM FCF yield is 23% (extremely high), and last two EPS prints beat consensus by 17-36% ($0.69 vs $0.59, $0.53 vs $0.39) — this is real earnings and cash-flow acceleration.
  • The valuation is genuinely undemanding: 0.88x TTM P/S and 23% FCF yield on a business growing 55% top-line — the market hasn't fully priced this yet, and the Zacks Sept 17 'Strong Momentum Stock' framing plus a modest tape are consistent with a compounder catching up.
  • The tape is running: shares are up 68% YTD and 61% over the past year, sit at the 83rd percentile of the 52-week range, 14% above the 50-day and 25% above the 200-day — no fresh insider selling flagged; the fundamentals-plus-technical setup is clean.

Nov 2 earnings extends the run if Q3 EPS beats $0.56 consensus with continued production growth and any specific FY27 guide commentary. What actually invalidates is either a crude-price break, a specific basin operational disruption (Eagle Ford, Uinta), or an unexpected large capital deployment that hits FCF trajectory — the fundamentals support the reversal.

What to watch: Q3 earnings Nov 2 — production growth, FY27 guide, and FCF trajectory; crude-price break, basin operational disruption, or large capital deployment hitting FCF invalidates.

What it does

Plain-English summary of the business — what they sell and how they make money.

Oil and gas E&P company with diversified assets across the Eagle Ford, Rockies, Permian, Barnett, and Mid-Con basins.

Industry overviewAI analysisGenerated by AI from underlying data

Where Oil & Gas Exploration & Production sits in its cycle right now — and what that implies for $CRGY.

Oil & Gas Exploration & Production · Energy

Crude oil above $100 following Houthi seizure of a Red Sea port is the immediate geopolitical supply driver — WTI and Brent held bullish breakouts with analysts flagging value in beaten-down E&P names. LNG export demand is the secular tailwind for Appalachian gas producers; Permian consolidation is rationalizing costs and lifting FCF conversion.

What this means for $CRGY

Partial — Crescent's diversified US basin portfolio (Eagle Ford, Rockies, Permian) benefits from $100 crude; integration of recent acquisitions and debt reduction are the near-term focus over growth capex allocation.

Profitability, valuation, and the next earnings event — at a glance, with rule-of-thumb signals.

Key ratios

P/E
-261.6How much investors are paying per dollar of profit the company actually earned in the last 12 months. Lower means the stock looks cheaper relative to earnings.~15–25 is typical for the S&P 500; high-growth names trade 30+; hyper-growth or speculative can be 100+ or negative.
ROIC
-85.1%What percentage return the business earns on every dollar of capital (equity + debt) deployed in operations. The cleanest measure of business quality.Above ~15% is high-quality; consistently above 25% suggests a real moat. Below the company's cost of capital is value-destroying.
Op margin
23.0%Operating profit (after sales, marketing, R&D, and overhead but before interest and taxes) as a percentage of revenue. The clearest view of how well the underlying business is run.Mature business above 20% is healthy; software businesses can run 30%+; commodity / retail businesses operate in single digits.
FCF yield
23.3%Free cash flow (operating cash flow minus capex) divided by the company's market cap. The cash-on-cash return you'd get owning the whole business at today's price.Above ~5% is attractive; below ~2% means you're paying up for growth. Capital-light businesses (software) run higher than capital-heavy ones (utilities).
P/S
0.9Same idea as P/E but per dollar of revenue. Useful for companies that aren't profitable yet, where P/E is meaningless.Under ~2 is cheap; software / SaaS often runs 8–15; well above 20 implies the market is pricing in very high future growth.
ROE
1.1%Net income as a percentage of shareholders' equity. Similar to ROIC but counts only the equity side.Above 20% is strong, but can be inflated by leverage — a heavily indebted company can show high ROE with weak underlying ROIC.
Gross margin
75.3%Revenue minus the direct cost of producing what was sold, as a percentage of revenue. The first read on whether the product is structurally profitable.Software / SaaS is typically 70%+; consumer goods 30–50%; commodity / hardware businesses can be under 20%.
D/E
1.0Total debt divided by shareholders' equity. Measures how much the business runs on borrowed money versus owner capital.Under 1 is conservative; 1–2 is typical for mature businesses; over 2 is leveraged and more sensitive to interest rates.
