CIBCがSuperior PlusをOutperformerに格上げ、データセンター事業の好調がCertarusの見通しを押し上げる

-- CIBCキャピタル・マーケッツは、スーペリア・プラス(SPB.TO)の株価目標を8.00ドルに据え置きつつ、投資判断を「中立」から「アウトパフォーム」に引き上げた。 アナリストのロバート・カテリエ氏は、スーペリア・プラスが子会社セルタラスにおけるデータセンター事業への投資を加速させる決定は、中核事業である油田開発活動が低迷する中で、魅力的な事業多角化策になると見ている。 スーペリア・プラスは月曜日、ハイパースケール・データセンター開発に関連する複数の新規契約を発表した。その中には、「グローバル発電パートナー」との共同プロジェクトを支援する2年半の契約も含まれている。セルタラスは、2027年半ばに稼働開始予定の施設で、約135MWの発電を支える天然ガスを供給する予定で、生涯収益は約3億ドルと見込まれている。 顧客は明らかにされていないが、カテリエ氏は、セルタラスがCNGパートナーとして公表されている情報から、プライベートエクイティ傘下のアグレコであると推測している。このプロジェクトには200台のCNG輸送トレーラーが必要となる。 「契約範囲や必要な資金に関する詳細はまだ限られているものの、この機会は中期的な成長を大きく押し上げる可能性を秘めていると考えています」とカテリエ氏は述べている。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Buy Opinion On Shares Of The Hartford Insurance Group, Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We trim our 12-month target price by $8 to $155, valuing HIG shares at 11.3x our 2026 operating EPS estimate of $13.75 (cut by $0.45) and at 10.6x our 2027 EPS estimate of $14.65 (cut by $0.30), vs. the shares' one-year average forward multiple of 10.3x and peer average of 13x. Q1 EPS of $3.09 vs. $2.20 a year ago missed our $3.60 estimate and $3.39 consensus view. Operating revenue growth of 6.2% was in line with our 6%-10% forecast, amid 5.3% earned premium growth, 13% higher net investment income, and 7.9% fee revenue growth. Q1 written premium growth of 4% and full-year 2025 growth of 7% bode well for 2026 revenue trends as premiums are earned. Underwriting results improved significantly, with Personal Lines combined ratio improving to 87.7% from 106.1% and underlying combined ratio to 85.0% from 89.7%. Business Insurance combined ratio was stable at 94.8%. Weighing the Q1 EPS miss with HIG's decent top-line growth and discounted valuation to peers, we view the shares as undervalued.

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Baker Hughes

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target price by $14 to $82, reflecting a combination of our sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) and DCF models. For our SOTP model, we presume the oilfield services business (about 50% of BKR's franchise) to be valued at about 10x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with major peers) and its industrial energy technology business (the other 50%) valued at 14x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with the peer median). This blended approach, yielding a 12x multiple, implies a value of $73 per share. Meanwhile, our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 5% per year, terminal growth of 2.5%, discounted at a WACC of 6.3%, yields intrinsic value of $91 per share. We cut our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.47 to $2.48, but we raise 2027's by $0.07 to $3.24. We acknowledge that the oilfield services business is likely to struggle in 2026 owing to the U.S.-Iran conflict, but the IET business appears quite robust and likely to be a source of both accelerating revenue growth and margins.
