On August 7, Sunrun rose 8.1% in regular trading, trading at $9.9/share, with turnover of $21.37 million. The rebound follows a cumulative decline of over 20% after Q2 results revealed a 60.75% year-over-year EPS decline and a lowered full-year cash generation outlook.
On the news front, RBC Capital Markets cut its price target on Sunrun to $14 from $18 but maintained its Outperform rating, noting that customer additions appear to have bottomed after coming in approximately 25% below estimates. RBC stated the company remains positioned for growth and margin expansion, though the timeline may be longer than previously anticipated. The firm highlighted near-term ramping challenges leading to reduced cash generation guidance of $200 million to $375 million, down from $250 million to $450 million, driven by lower order volumes and higher capital costs.
The maintained bullish stance from a major institution amid deeply oversold conditions appears to have provided a catalyst for technical recovery in the session.
