In the said letter, First Eagle highlighted a few stocks and Imperial Oil Ltd (NYSE:IMO) is one of them. Imperial Oil Ltd (NYSE:IMO) is a petroleum refining company. Year-to-date, Imperial Oil Ltd (NYSE:IMO) stock lost 51.2% and on October 29th it had a closing price of $12.53. Here is what First Eagle said:
“Imperial Oil (about 70% owned by Exxon Mobil) is a highquality integrated energy company that fell alongside other oil producers in the quarter. Focused on the Canadian oil sands, the third-largest proven oil reserve in the world, Imperial has a long reserve life even without new discoveries. Imperial is well integrated across the energy value chain, and its operational advantages, combined with what we believe to be a resilient balance sheet and a well-aligned management team have translated into a business that has offered durable cash flows and solid value creation for shareholders over time.”
