Oppenheimer&#8217;s price objective points to a potential upside of 45.19% from the stock&#8217;s previous close. </p>
<p>The analysts wrote, &#8220;We are reducing our PT to $49 from $69, but reiterating our Outperform rating, as we believe EVEP offers a compelling investment opportunity following significant underperformance YTD. We anticipate EVEP will divest its wet-gas Utica acreage in the coming months, raising approximately $200M in proceeds, which assumes ~$10K/acre. These funds would likely be used to make an accretive acquisition. Also of note, we believe the market does not properly value EVEP&#8217;s Utica midstream assets, which should begin to provide meaningful EBITDA in 2014. Our sum-of-the-parts PT includes $37/unit for the base assets, $5/unit for Utica wet-gas, and $7/unit for the midstream assets. Updated estimates reflect updated guidance and commodity prices.&#8221;</p>

<p>The analysts wrote, &#8220;After updating our model to exclude SONGS from rate base, we continue to view EIX as an attractive value opportunity in the regulated utilities space.

While there remains uncertainty in the ultimate cost recovery for SONGS-related costs, we expect a reasonable outcome and future recoveries from MHI (the steam generator vendor) and NEIL (nuclear insurance).

<p>The analysts wrote, &#8220;We believe the stock provides an attractive risk/reward opportunity with earnings expectations finally positioned for upside and the dividend yield about to creep above 4%. A sustained fundamental improvement remains a controversial topic, but easy comparisons and management&#8217;s lowered bar have positioned DRI for a high probability of success. While 16x forward P/E is not cheap, Street assumptions of flat F14E EPS growth represents a &#8216;kitchen sink&#8217; scenario, based on our analysis. We would be buyers into Friday&#8217;s F4Q13 print and raise our price target to $58, from $54.&#8221;</p>
