SLB stock maintained at Outperform on expected 2025 recovery

On Tuesday, RBC Capital Markets maintained its Outperform rating on Schlumberger Limited (NYSE:SLB) shares with a consistent price target of $57.00.

RBC Capital's analysts expressed confidence in the company's performance, noting that Schlumberger's fourth quarter 2024 results and near-term forecasts met the firm's recently adjusted expectations.

The analysts highlighted that despite a decline in the stock's performance at the end of 2024, Schlumberger is well-positioned for a rebound in 2025.

The market has adjusted its expectations, which could lead to potential gains as the company finalizes its acquisition of CHX and starts to realize approximately $400 million in synergies.

Additionally, the continued growth in the digital segment is expected to contribute positively to the company's performance.

According to the firm, the recent reset in market expectations for Schlumberger offers an opportunity for investors to buy a quality stock on a dip.

The company's strategic moves, including its CHX acquisition, are anticipated to enhance its financial position and market performance in the coming year.

RBC Capital has also included Schlumberger on its Global Energy Best Ideas list, signaling the firm's belief in the stock's potential for strong returns.

Schlumberger's focus on capturing synergies and expanding its digital offerings is seen as a solid strategy to drive future growth.
