Positive Outlook for Orsted Supported by Strong Q3 Performance and Strategic Positioning in Offshore Wind Energy | Markets Insider
Analyst Elizabelle Pang of DBS maintained a Buy rating on Orsted (DOGEF – Research Report), retaining the price target of DKK500.00.
Elizabelle Pang’s rating is based on several compelling factors that support a positive outlook for Orsted. The company reported a solid EBITDA performance for the third quarter of 2024, which aligns with market expectations. This financial stability is bolstered by Orsted’s strategic positioning in the European energy transition, where it holds a significant leadership stance in offshore wind energy. The company’s extensive experience and operational success in this field position it well to capitalize on the increasing investments in renewable energy across Europe.
Furthermore, Orsted’s proactive asset recycling initiatives are anticipated to act as positive catalysts for its growth. These activities, alongside management’s commitment to achieving substantial proceeds from asset recycling over the next few years, reinforce the company’s financial strategy. While potential risks from U.S. policy changes are acknowledged, Orsted’s current trading valuation and its strategic initiatives are expected to mitigate these concerns, thus supporting the Buy rating with a target price of DKK500.
In another report released yesterday, UBS also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a DKK520.00 price target.
