Scatec Begins 900 MW Shadwan Egypt Wind Project With EDF
Scatec has started construction on the 900 MW Shadwan onshore wind project in Egypt alongside EDF, backed by a US$150 million equity bridge loan package. The news lifted Scatec shares 5.53% in a single day to NOK104.0, contributing to a 90 day share price gain of 9.36%, though the year to date share price return remains down 3.61% and the 1 year total shareholder return is slightly negative. The most followed analyst narrative puts Scatec's fair value at NOK129.89, roughly 20% above the last close, while the SWS DCF model estimates a future cash flow value of NOK10.05, framing the stock as very expensive. Scatec remains heavily dependent on government tenders and project execution, so policy setbacks or construction delays could quickly challenge the undervalued narrative.

Krungsri Keeps Buy on BGRIM with 23 Baht Target, Raises Data Center Target to 500 MW
Krungsri Securities has raised its target for BGRIM's Data Center business capacity to 500 megawatts by 2030, up from 300 megawatts previously, viewing it as a positive factor for investment confidence. It maintains a Buy recommendation and a 2027 target price of 23 baht, based on a sum-of-the-parts valuation. It expects normal profit in 2027 and 2028 to grow 22% and 17% respectively, driven by lower natural gas costs amid an LNG supply glut and the gradual commercial start-up of new projects, namely the Nakwol 1 wind power plant in South Korea and a Data Center project in Thailand. However, the research team has not included large pipeline projects in its estimates, namely the 184 MWe Nakwol 2 wind power plant, a 735 MWe IPP power plant in Malaysia, and a 411 MWe battery energy storage system project in Italy, since developing these projects simultaneously could require substantial investment. Meanwhile, the interest-bearing debt-to-equity ratio stands at 2.2 times, compared with a loan covenant limit of no more than 3.0 times. BGRIM shares traded intraday at 19.20 baht, up 0.30 baht or 1.59%.
