MT Newswires Live12-18

BMO Capital Markets on Wednesday reiterated its market-perform rating on the shares of Capital Power (CPX.TO) while raising its price target to C$68.00 from C$56.00 as it resumed coverage of the power producer following the close of an equity issue.

"We are resuming coverage of CPX at Market Perform with a new target price of $68 (vs. $56) after coming off restriction post the close of its $460M equity offering (~6% increase to shares o/s). Similar to closest peer TA ($19.85; OP), we have lifted our target multiple for CPX by 1x (to 10x vs. 9x) to reflect the growing probability of Alberta co-located AI data center contracts where CPX is also well-positioned to capitalize, especially given the recent completion of the Genesee repowering project," analyst Ben Pham wrote.
