Saeta Yield closes the lestenergia acquisition. New TP is €12.65

  • Closes the acquisition of Lestenergia from ACS: 144 MW of wind plants in Portugal
  • The metrics compare favourably with Saeta’s Spanish wind assets
  • We expect the debt to be refinanced and the tenor increased, this is another positive
  • Our target price increases to €12.65 per share

Our calculations consider an 11% cash yield and a 2.5% cost of debt (in-line with recent acquisitions), €30mn EBITDA and an incremental CAFD of €2.4mn. At an 85% payout, dividends would increase by €2mn or €0.03 per share. A €2mn increase in dividends per year between 2018e and 2033e pushes our target price up to €12.65 per share, from €12.39. We value positively this acquisition that demonstrates Saeta’s business model and equity story and reinforces our Buy recommendation.
