Ormat Technologies (ORA) Receives a Hold from Oppenheimer


Oppenheimer analyst Noah Kaye maintained a Hold rating on Ormat Technologies (ORA) today. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $54.05.

Kaye said:

“We recently held a call with Ormat CFO Doron Blachar to discuss key topics, including (1) the Puna, HI plant’s restart and insurance claim activity; (2) Electricity segment project pricing and development timetables; (3) diversification in the (4) energy storage pipeline. We believe execution on key growth initiatives remains largely on track. While we believe the shares could stay range- bound until a resolution of Puna’s insurance claims and line of sight to restart, we note other potential catalysts, including new international PPAs in development. We remain sidelined on valuation and continue to look for an entry point.”
