Talen Energy: The PPL Basis Discount Is The Dark Horse For FCF Growth

Talen Energy: The PPL Basis Discount Is The Dark Horse For FCF Growth

Talen Energy Corporation is rated Buy with a $575/share 2028 price target, driven by strong capacity auction results and robust FCF projections. TLN benefits from multi-year visibility into rising contracted revenues, with capacity prices at PJM's cap and 20% further upside expected in 2H-2026. Transmission upgrades and in-zone demand growth could narrow the $20/MW-hr PPL basis, potentially boosting FCF yield to 17% or higher by 2028.

Power Solutions International: Upgrading On Vastly Improved Results And Bargain Valuation - Strong Buy

Power Solutions International: Upgrading On Vastly Improved Results And Bargain Valuation - Strong Buy

Power Solutions International reported much better-than-expected second quarter results with strong profitability and stellar cash generation. While the company continues to be impacted by data center project delays and weakness in legacy markets, management reiterated expectations for strong improvement in the second half. Following a multi-month selloff, shares are trading at bargain levels. Even when assigning a rather undemanding valuation of 12x estimated 2027 EV/Adjusted EBITDA, upside would be well north of 100%.
