Clearway Energy (CWEN) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Clearway Energy (CWEN) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Clearway Energy Inc. is poised for significant growth as management anticipates a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 14% for cash available for distribution (CAFD) per share, projecting an increase to the top end of $2.50-$2.70 by 2027. The company's project returns have notably improved, rising by about 200 basis points over the past year, which contributes to its enhanced profitability outlook. Moreover, the strategic positioning of its flexible generation assets, particularly in California, alongside the rising demand for clean energy driven by market trends such as data center expansions, adds further strength to Clearway Energy's financial prospects.
Bears say
Clearway Energy Inc. is facing a negative outlook due to a projected Q4 Cash Available for Distribution (CAFD) of approximately $44 million, which falls short of prior consensus estimates and indicates weakening financial performance. The anticipated reduction in the dividend compound annual growth rate (CAGR) to around 6% through 2027, compared to the historical CAGR of approximately 8%, raises concerns about the company's ability to sustain shareholder returns in the long term. Additionally, the overall market value of CAFD yield is expected to decrease, reflecting heightened risk perceptions and an inability to support growth effectively amidst challenging capital market conditions and shorter contract life issues faced by comparable entities.
