Wattenberg operators have done pretty well this year, and results from the Niobrara and Codell formations continue to support solid IRRs on these wells. Since I wrote about Synergy Resources (NYSEMKT:SYRG) in late January, the shares are up about 44% - a little better than Bonanza Creek (NYSE:BCEI) and about double the return of PDC Energy (NASDAQ:PDCE) over that period.

The shares do not look cheap on the basis of peer-level EBITDA multiples, but I would argue that Synergy's triple-digit oil growth deserves a premium and the company's core Wattenberg drilling inventory supports a mid-teens fair value.
