TheStreet Ratings team rates PRECISION DRILLING CORP as a Hold with a ratings score of C+. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate PRECISION DRILLING CORP (PDS) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed -- some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, reasonable valuation levels and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including unimpressive growth in net income and a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself."
