Zusammenfassung:
In den letzten Wochen ist der Aktienkurs von Energiekontor um fast 20%
gesunken, da sich das Sentiment in der Branche verschlechtert hat. Der
globale Index für erneuerbare Energien, RENIXX, ist seit Jahresbeginn um
11% gefallen, Peer-Unternehmen (SMA Solar, 7C Solarparken) haben kürzlich
Gewinnwarnungen herausgegeben, und rechtsgerichtete Parteien, die die
grünen Energien nicht unterstützen, sind in Deutschland, der EU und
weltweit auf dem Vormarsch. Allerdings wird sich die verbesserte
Regulierung (EU: Green Deal, Deutschland: EEG, Solarpaket I, BImSchG, USA:
Inflation Reduction Act) auch in den kommenden Jahren sehr positiv auf Wind
& Solar auswirken. Wir sind daher sehr zuversichtlich, dass Energiekontor
die Prognose für 2024 (EBT: €30 Mio. - €70 Mio., FBe: €51 Mio.) erreichen
und 2025 das EBT (FBe: €90 Mio., +76% J/J) aufgrund deutlich höherer
Projektumsätze und eines hohen EBT-Beitrags aus dem eigenen
Ökostromportfolio deutlich steigern wird. EKT hat eine glasklare
Wachstumsstrategie und strebt für 2028 ein EBT von €120 Mio. an. Wir sind
überzeugt, dass EKT ein starkes Ergebniswachstum erzielen wird und
prognostizieren, dass das Nettoergebnis 2028E fast doppelt so hoch sein
wird wie 2022 (€83 Mio. gegenüber €45 Mio.). In Anbetracht der starken
kurz- (2025) und mittelfristigen (2028) Wachstumsaussichten halten wir das
Unternehmen mit einem KGV von 15 für 2025 für attraktiv bewertet. Wir
bestätigen unsere Prognosen. Unser Kursziel bleibt bei €126. Zeit, die
Aktie zu KAUFEN.
First Berlin Equity Research has published a research update on Energiekontor AG (ISIN: DE0005313506). Analyst Dr. Karsten von Blumenthal reiterated his BUY rating and maintained his EUR 126.00 price target.
In recent weeks, Energiekontor’s share price has declined by almost 20% as sector sentiment has worsened. The global renewable energy index RENIXX is down 11% YTD, peers (SMA Solar, 7C Solarparken) have recently issued profit warnings, and right-wing parties which do not support green power are on the rise in Germany, the EU and globally. However, the supportive regulatory environment (EU: Green Deal, Germany: EEG, Solarpaket I, BImSchG, USA: Inflation Reduction Act) will continue to exert a very positive effect on wind & solar in the coming years. We are thus very confident that Energiekontor will reach 2024 guidance (EBT: €30m - €70m, FBe: €51m) and will significantly increase 2025 EBT (FBe: €90m, +76% y/y) because of significantly higher project sales and a high EBT contribution from the own green power portfolio. EKT has a crystal clear growth strategy and targets 2028 EBT of €120m. We are convinced that EKT will deliver strong bottom line growth and forecast that the 2028E net result will be almost twice as high as the 2022 figure (€83m versus €45m). Given the strong short-term (2025) and medium-term (2028) growth prospects, we believe that the company is attractively valued at 2025 P/E of 15x. We confirm out forecasts. Our price target remains at €126. Time to BUY the stock.
