RE:desjardins vs scotia : 58% target differenceI certainly would not put much emphasis on any analyst price targets for Algonquin Power at this point. A key risk is that elevated interest rates persist for an extended period. If rates remain high it reduces the market value and decreases the pool of potential buyers for those assets. Many investors factor in expectations for low cost project financing when acquiring utility scale renewable power installations. With Algonquin looking to potentially monetize certain non-core renewable assets via sales, their ability to successfully unload these holdings at favorable prices is uncertain if rates stay elevated. These price targets likely fail to reflect the dampening effect protracted higher rates could have on investor demand - and consequently achievable sale values - for capital intensive renewable power assets like Algonquin's.
