David Round has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors, primarily focusing on Atome Energy PLC’s strategic initiatives and potential for growth. The announcement of ATOME POWER, a new renewable power generation and infrastructure business, signifies a promising expansion into the renewable energy sector, particularly in Latin America. This venture, which includes a joint venture with Fondo de Inversion en Innovacion de Paraguay S.A., aims to develop a utility-scale solar plant, potentially providing a significant independent revenue stream.
Furthermore, the company’s strategic approach to funding, which leverages internal resources and external parties at a project level, minimizes equity funding needs and preserves core business resources. Additionally, the Villeta project is progressing well, with discussions nearing completion for offtake agreements and equity club formation. These developments, coupled with the potential for stable long-term contracts and additional income streams, underpin the Buy rating and the 130p target price, reflecting confidence in Atome Energy’s growth trajectory.
