The company did indeed make such announcements, but the shares are stabilizing instead of rallying, stymied by a recent off-base, bearish analyst note.\nStill, given the company’s strong upcoming positive catalysts, which much of the Street appears to be greatly underestimating and the fairly innocuous nature of Plug’s accounting errors, I remain upbeat on its longer-term outlook and believe that some investors should resume buying Plug’s shares.\nOn April 8, Plug Power disclosed thatthe Department of Energyhad invited it to apply for a proposed$520 million loan guarantee. The news is significant because it shows that the Biden administration is ready, willing and able to provide strong support for hydrogen projects in general. That support will prove to be enormously valuable for the company in the coming years.\n On April 5, Plug disclosed thatChart Industries(NYSE:GTLS) andBaker Hughes(NYSE:BKR)would each contribute €50 millionto a fund that will invest in hydrogen projects. Plug itself will invest €160 million in the fund. The news shows that even large companies outside of the renewable energy space see the huge potential of hydrogen. That certainly bodes well for the outlook of PLUG stock\nIn another positive signfor the hydrogen sector, hydrogen vehicle makerNikola(NASDAQ:NKLA) agreed on April 14 to partner with two other firms in an effort to develop a hydrogen transportation system in Germany.\nIn recent days, at least partly due to the cumulative impact of these deals, PLUG stock has stabilized around the $28-$30 level.\nMuch of the Street Is Underestimating PLUG Stock\nOne of the key factors holding Plug’s shares down recently was a fairly bearish analyst note, issued byMorgan Stanley’sStephen Byrd on April 12.\nByrd reinstated coverage of Plug Power with an “equal weight” rating and a $35 price target. The analyst is upbeat on the company’s longer-term outlook but warns that discounted cash flow analysis suggests 8% upside.\nByrd’s approach to evaluating PLUG stock reminds me very much of the notes that many analysts issued from 2015-2018 about solar energy companies.\nDuring those years, analysts’ estimates routinely underestimated the solar energy boom that was happening and would continue for many years. As a result, their forecasts of the future valuations of solar stocks were way off.\nIt’s true that the valuation of Plug Power is many times higher than that of the solar stocks I touted years ago, but there are a few differences working in Plug Power’s favor.\nFirst, my sense is that Plug Power is facing much less competition in the hydrogen market than the solar module makers had to deal with from each other six years ago.\nSecond, governments and companies are much more committed to cutting carbon emissions now.\nFinally, as I’ve noted in multiple, prior columns, the boom of e-commerce is creating an immediate, widespread economic incentive for many companies to adopt Plug Power’s products. From 2015-2018, there were not many companies that had tremendous economic incentives to adopt solar energy.\nThe Bottom Line\nIn a very pertinent April 4 column published on Seeking Alpha,The Value Fundshows why hydrogen is poisedto be widely adopted and argues persuasively that the company’s accounting errors are not very serious.
