14 Most Undervalued NYSE Stocks to Buy According to Analysts

12. Crescent Energy Company (NYSE:CRGY)

Crescent Energy Company (NYSE:CRGY) is one of the 14 Most Undervalued NYSE Stocks to Buy According to Analysts.

Crescent Energy, on February 25, released its Q4 2025 earnings. The release showed the company beating analyst expectations in the fourth quarter by posting adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.49 (vs. the street consensus of $0.33).

The earnings beat was driven primarily by improved pumping efficiency, which allowed the company to extract more oil and gas from its existing wells. The positive impact from the efficiency gains more than offset the modest decline in oil and natural gas liquids (NGL) prices.

Realized synergies from Crescent’s acquisition of Vital Energy, in the form of operational efficiencies, overhead optimization, marketing improvements, and refinancing opportunities, also played a part in the strong earnings. To date, the company has realized ~$40 million in annual cost savings, out of the initial target of $90 to $100 million. It now expects to double this initial target.

The volume growth and cost rationalization, combined with lower CapEx, translated into substantial free cash flow generation, with a FCF yield of ~31% in 2025. The strong cash flows give Crescent the flexibility to accelerate its deleveraging (with a clear pathway to an investment-grade credit rating), increase capital returns to shareholders (a fixed quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, ~$336 million in remaining buyback authorization), and fund accretive M&A.

Crescent Energy Company (NYSE:CRGY) is an energy company with a portfolio of oil and gas assets in Texas and the Rocky Mountain region. The company is based in Houston, Texas.
