0853 GMT - Cnooc's Hong Kong-listed shares look undervalued, Morningstar's Chokwai Lee writes in a note. Cnooc's attractive 2024 dividend yield of more than 7%, its cost-control efficiency and strong oil and gas production growth create further upside in shares, Lee says. The Chinese energy major's 3Q net profit exceeded estimates despite its average realized oil selling price falling 8%, Lee notes. That was due to strong output, higher gas prices and controlled operating expenses, he says. Net production is expected to grow 7% to 724.7 million barrels of oil equivalent this year, slightly beating Cnooc's earlier guidance, Lee adds. Morningstar lifts its fair-value estimate for H shares by 2.2% to HK$23.00 after raising its earnings forecasts through 2026 by 3% on average. Shares closed at HK$18.02. (kimberley.kao@wsj.com)
