Amsterdam – 29 May 2023 – Photon Energy N.V. (WSE&PSE: PEN, FSX: A1T9KW) (‘Photon Energy Group’, the ‘Group’ or the ‘Company’) announces that its stock has been given a ‘Buy’ recommendation by mBank’s research house. mBank is Poland’s fourth-largest universal banking group and a subsidiary of Germany’s Commerzbank AG. The analysts are optimistic about the Company’s growth outlook and begin their coverage with a recommendation to buy, setting a target price of PLN 18.54 (approx. EUR 4.09, CZK 97.00) for its shares. ‘An impressive track record, vertical integration, geographical diversification, and a focus on minimizing equity tie-up on particular projects, are Photon Energy’s main strengths in this respect,’ highlights mBank. According to mBank, ‘Photon Energy is perfectly positioned to leverage fast-growing demand for energy services (RES aggregation, balancing, ESCO/behind-the-meter solutions), driven by the global shift to renewables. Moreover, by acquiring Lerta in November 2022, the Company became a leading DSR aggregator in the Polish capacity market with revenue potential of up to EUR 40m in three years and potential to expand beyond Poland.’ ‘We also want to highlight the CleanTech opportunities built into Photon Energy’s investment profile (PFAS remediation, RayGen solar-plus-storage technology) that can open up new growth and upside avenues once proved viable,’ adds mBank. mBank estimates that even with conservative assumptions as to power prices, the annual EBITDA of Photon Energy Group can grow 60% in 3 years. In addition to mBank, Photon Energy Group’s stock is covered by equity analysts of IPOPEMA, Wood&Co. and AlsterResearch. is available in the Investor Relations section of Photon Energy Group’s website.
