BMO Capital analyst Benjamin Pham has maintained their bullish stance on BEP stock, giving a Buy rating today.
Benjamin Pham’s Buy rating for Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP) is premised on a variety of encouraging factors, notably the company’s performance and positive outlook. Despite less-than-ideal resource conditions, BEP managed to meet expectations for funds from operations (FFO) per share in the fourth quarter of 2023. Furthermore, BEP has demonstrated resilience within the renewables sector, showing solid liquidity, cash flow growth, and promising expansion opportunities. These factors underpin the expectation that BEP’s premium valuation will remain stable, justifying Pham’s optimistic view and his target price for the stock.
Analyzing the company’s guidance, Pham is optimistic about BEP’s potential to achieve a double-digit percentage increase in FFO per share in 2024 and the years to follow. This confidence is bolstered by recent stabilization in interest rates and anticipated increases in transaction activity. Additionally, BEP’s large-scale organic growth pipeline and development prospects, which have recently expanded, are expected to significantly contribute to future FFO. Despite noting better relative value in other stocks within the coverage, Pham’s recommendation underscores BEP’s robust growth outlook, strong asset base, and the backing of Brookfield Asset Management.
In another report released today, Scotiabank also reiterated a Buy rating on the stock with a $30.00 price target.
