RWE's significant undervaluation suggests a potential increase in share price by a double-digit percentage.
In a positive outlook for Germany's largest energy provider, RWE, experts from Bloomberg have predicted a 40-euro price target for the company's shares. This optimistic assessment reflects analysts' positive view of RWE's transition towards renewable energy, improved operational performance, and strategic efforts to reduce emissions.
The shift away from lignite-fired power generation is a key factor in this optimism. RWE reported an 8% drop in EU lignite-fired power output in the first half of 2025, signalling a reduction in carbon-intensive activities that aligns with EU carbon emission targets and could improve regulatory and ESG standing.
Another significant contributing factor is RWE's focus on renewable energy expansion. As Europe intensifies investment in offshore wind and other renewables, RWE's involvement in large-scale renewable projects positions it to benefit from growth opportunities and energy market transitions.
Improved earnings visibility and guidance also play a role. Although not specific to RWE, energy sector peers confirm stronger earnings supported by higher investments and operational improvements, which can be reasonably inferred to positively influence RWE's valuation outlook.
The utility sector's resilience through dividends and buybacks, along with broader economic growth projections, also contribute to bullish expectations on energy stocks including RWE.
In the first half of the year, RWE earned more than half of the EBITDA announced for 2024, but for the full year, it targeted the lower end of the forecast. However, experts expect an average of around five billion euros EBITDA for 2025, but according to Bloomberg, it should be 5.4 billion euros, eight percent more. This increase is due to higher profits in energy trading.
The expansion of capacities for green energy, such as wind parks and solar plants, is expected to have a stronger impact on RWE's earnings between 2023 and 2027, with an annual increase of 20 percent.
The disappointing stock performance of RWE this year is considered a good opportunity to buy the dividend stock, according to BÖRSE ONLINE. With the third-quarter results on November 13, RWE is expected to become more confident, according to Bloomberg's experts. The third-quarter results on November 13 are expected to make RWE more confident, according to Bloomberg's experts.
In conclusion, the 40-euro price target for RWE shares by Bloomberg experts likely accounts for RWE's decarbonization efforts reducing regulatory risks, growing renewable assets enhancing future revenues, and steady operational performance improving profitability and investor confidence. However, direct statements from Bloomberg analysts were not found in the current search results, so this synthesis is based on related market and company trends reported recently.
