Upgrades
$8
2025-04-17
Reason
Citi upgraded Canadian Solar to Neutral from Sell with an $8 price target. The company's current valuation reflects no value for CSI Solar and an "impaired value" for Recurrent Energy, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Citi estimates Recurrent alone is worth $12 per share in book value. The firm believes Inflation Reduction Act risks and a large portion of tariff impact appear to be already in utility scale stocks.

Hold
Maintains
$13 → $10
2025-01-08
Reason
Wells Fargo lowered the firm's price target on Canadian Solar to $10 from $13 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The firm is negative on the Clean Energy sector in 2025 given IRA/political uncertainty and high interest rates. While the sector has traded off, investors may stay away until there's clarity on regulatory and macro headwinds, Wells argues.

Initiates
$20
2024-12-13
Reason
Mizuho initiated coverage of Canadian Solar with an Outperform rating and $20 price target. Canadian Solar is a perennial top-five manufacturer of solar cells and modules globally and its battery energy storage business is growing faster than the industry, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm likes the company's focus on expanding U.S. solar manufacturing, which it notes is in line with the U.S. government's focus on near-shoring solar tariffs, as well as its "underappreciated" margin-accretive energy storage business, which Mizuho believes is taking market share.

Maintains
$15 → $13
2024-12-05
Reason
Wells Fargo analyst Michael Blum lowered the firm's price target on Canadian Solar to $13 from $15 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The company's Q3 results were mixed, with below-consensus revenue that was partially offset by a strong 2025 battery shipment forecast, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm adds that it remains at neutral on the stock given the significant policy headwinds in the U.S.
Jefferies
Johnson Wan
Strong Buy
Initiates
$14
2024-11-22
Reason
Jefferies initiated coverage of Canadian Solar with a Buy rating and $14.15 price target. Overcapacity in solar has now been priced in, but potentially weaker PV, or photovoltaic, solar demand from China in 2026 will remain an overhang for stocks in the group in the first nine months of 2025, says the analyst, who sees a "cyclical trading opportunity."
