ProFrac stock price target lowered to $6 by Piper Sandler on power strategy shift

Investing.com - Piper Sandler has lowered its price target on ProFrac Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:ACDC) to $6.00 from $8.00 while maintaining a Neutral rating on the stock. The new target sits within the current analyst range of $5.00 to $8.00, with the stock trading at $3.85, down nearly 50% year-to-date.

The research firm adjusted its outlook following ProFrac’s strategic shift toward an integrated power approach with a focus on land opportunities, particularly in the data center market. The company, currently valued at $634 million, is targeting real property with redundant infrastructure through a project and infrastructure development lens. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a Fair financial health rating despite recent challenges.

ProFrac recently completed a $75 million equity raise, which analysts believe is partly intended to support investments in these powered land opportunities. The offering added approximately 18.75 million shares to the company’s pro forma share count.

Piper Sandler has updated its financial projections for ProFrac, decreasing its 2025 EBITDA estimate to $350 million from $391 million and its 2026 EBITDA forecast to $349 million from $409 million.

The new $6 price target is based on Piper Sandler’s 12.5% free cash flow yield target for 2026.

In other recent news, ProFrac Holding Corp reported its second-quarter 2025 earnings, revealing a revenue decline to $520 million from $600 million in the previous quarter. The company also reported a wider-than-expected loss per share of -$0.26, missing the forecasted -$0.2311. Additionally, ProFrac announced a $75 million public offering of Class A common stock, pricing the shares at $4.00 each. This offering is expected to generate approximately $75 million in gross proceeds, with the company granting underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $11.25 million. In a strategic move, ProFrac has partnered with Seismos to deploy Closed Loop Fracturing technology across major U.S. oil and gas basins. This partnership aims to enhance real-time data collection during hydraulic fracturing operations. These developments mark significant steps for ProFrac in its operational and financial strategies.
