Andrea Zampaloni’s rating is based on Distribuzione Elettrica Adriatica S.p.A’s strategic positioning in the electricity distribution market, which is characterized by its regulated nature and the company’s successful M&A activities. DEA operates in a fragmented market with long-term concessions, benefiting from regulated returns that provide high revenue visibility and stable cash flows. The company’s ability to execute mergers and acquisitions effectively has allowed it to expand its infrastructure footprint significantly, positioning it as a key consolidator in the sector.
Additionally, DEA is well-positioned to capitalize on the ongoing electrification trends and infrastructure upgrades, which are expected to drive further growth. The recent extension of concessions until 2050 and new investment requirements favor larger players like DEA, enabling them to increase market share. With a target price of €11.8 per share, representing a 61% upside, DEA’s shares are currently undervalued, offering attractive investment potential due to its efficient operations and growth prospects in public lighting and other areas.
