Clearway Energy (CWEN) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Clearway Energy Inc. is projected to achieve a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 14% in cash available for distribution (CAFD) per share, increasing from a guidance of $2.08 per share in 2025 to the upper range of $2.50-$2.70 by 2027. The company has also seen an enhancement in project returns, with an increase of roughly 200 basis points over the past year, contributing to a more favorable investment climate. Furthermore, the flexible generation assets are strategically positioned to capitalize on rising Resource Adequacy (RA) prices, while solar energy's improving efficiency and cost-effectiveness strengthens Clearway's competitive edge in the renewable sector.
Bears say
Clearway Energy Inc. is projecting a significant decline in cash available for distribution (CAFD) for Q4, estimating approximately $44 million, which falls short of prior consensus expectations of $57 million. The company anticipates a median payout ratio decreasing to 73% of CAFD by 2027, slightly over the lower end of the targeted range, while forecasting a lower dividend CAGR of about 6% compared to the historical rate of approximately 8%. Additionally, the outlook suggests that market conditions may lead to a lower valuation yield for its assets, increasing perceived risk and attracting lower growth valuations amid challenges in securing funding in a weak capital market environment.
