The team at Morgans has looked upon this news favourably, raising their valuation on the ASX small cap stock.Â
Capital raising bumps up guidance
The broker said in a note yesterday that LGI has completed a ~A$56m capital raising (A$51m placement; A$5m SPP) to strengthen the balance sheet (net cash ~A$24m), expand its targeted development pipeline (>80MW) and accelerate project delivery (completed within 3 years).
Morgans said the extended pipeline (~28MW across six additional projects), will see LGI ~4x its ending FY25 MW under management, with a strong composition of high returning battery energy storage system (BESS) projects.
Subsequently, FY26 guidance has been reaffirmed for 25-30% growth.
The broker also materially improved forecasts (FY27-28F NPAT +17% and +24%), factoring in the development pipeline.
We are encouraged by the acceleration of the group’s MW capacity build out and maintain our confidence in managements strong operational execution to deliver it on time and on budget. Strong forecast earnings growth (MorgansF ~26% EPS CAGR) and LGI’s pure-play renewable exposure justify the valuation premium.
