Coterra Energy is an American oil and natural gas company that finds, drills, and sells fossil fuels from the ground. Its main products are crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids, which it sells to refiners, utilities, and industrial buyers across the United States. Coterra operates in three major U.S. production areas: the Permian Basin in Texas, the Marcellus Shale in Pennsylvania, and the Anadarko Basin in Oklahoma.

The company makes money by selling the oil and gas it produces, so its revenue rises and falls with commodity prices. With a market cap near $24.7 billion, Coterra is a mid-to-large independent producer with a diversified asset base across both oil-heavy and gas-heavy regions, which helps reduce reliance on any single fuel type. The biggest risk the business faces is a sustained drop in oil or natural gas prices, which would directly shrink revenue and could pressure the company to cut its dividend or reduce drilling activity.

Growth + cash flow

Coterra Energy is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 24%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
