UBS says this solar stock can rally 75% even as U.S. budget bill poses risks to clean energy

Sunrun can surge from here even as a new U.S. budget bill poses a risk to the clean energy sector, according to UBS. Analyst Jon Windham kept his buy rating on the solar company. He did cut his price target to $12 from $17, but that still implies the stock could still gain 75% from Thursday’s close. Sunrun shares have plunged nearly 26% this year and more than 52% over the past year, as traders ditch clean energy names under the Trump administration.

If the residential tax credits are fully slashed, he said Sunrun could survive regulatory changes by structuring its Power Purchase Agreement options, getting more state-level policy support and transitioning to end markets such as commercial and industrial and community solar. He also noted that the company has strong assets. “Our estimates are unchanged as there is the potential for revisions in the U.S. Senate and possible that a final bill does not pass,” Windham wrote. “We maintain our buy rating … based on RUN’s underlying $2.6bn portfolio of contracted net earning assets. In addition, we see potential upside scenarios beyond the U.S. budget bill.” Wall Street remains split on Sunrun. Of the 25 analysts covering the stock, on rates it a strong buy, while 10 rate it a buy and 12 give it a hold, per LSEG.
