摩根大通予Constellation Energy“增持”评级,目标价从348美元上调至358美元。摩根大通对Constellation以290亿美元收购Calpine的交易持乐观态度。
摩根大通表示,这笔重磅交易将把美国最大的核电机组与庞大的天然气业务整合在一起,预计总发电能力超过60GW。这笔交易标志着Constellation业务的重大转变,该公司仍将是最大的无碳发电商,拥有超过22GW的核电容量,但此次收购新增了约26GW的天然气发电容量以及约1.5GW的地热和可再生能源发电容量。
这笔交易旨在建立一个核能+天然气+地热平台,这对满足电力需求至关重要。这笔交易也有助于Constellation拓展德克萨斯州和加利福尼亚州的业务。交易以具有吸引力的财务条款达成,有效EV/EBITDA为7.9倍。市场反响积极,Constellation股价在上周五公布收购消息后大涨25%。
Constellation管理层预计,此次收购将使每股收益增长20%以上,年化现金流将超过20亿美元,摩根大通认为这是非常出色的水平。
此外,这笔交易使Constellation能够在更广泛的市场上提供更全面的供应解决方案。尽管最初有人担心该公司的无碳资产会被稀释,但摩根大通仍持乐观态度,认为天然气业务的整体前景广阔。更广泛的业务将使Constellation受益于当前有利的电力供需趋势。
