In other recent news, Sunrun has been the subject of several analyst updates and regulatory developments. Jefferies upgraded Sunrun’s stock rating from Underperform to Hold, raising its price target to $11.00. This change followed the signing of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which provides favorable conditions for third-party ownership companies like Sunrun. KeyBanc also upgraded Sunrun from Underweight to Sector Weight, citing the preservation of Investment Tax Credit benefits for leased equipment as a positive factor. Meanwhile, RBC Capital Markets downgraded Sunrun from Outperform to Sector Perform, reducing its price target to $5.00 due to concerns over proposed changes to residential solar tax credits.
Citi analysts have expressed optimism about Sunrun’s momentum, attributing it to the reconciliation bill signed into law, which has created a more favorable environment for residential solar companies. The legislation preserved tax credits for solar leasing arrangements, which benefited several solar stocks, including Sunrun. Despite the positive regulatory developments, RBC Capital Markets highlighted challenges Sunrun faces in achieving positive cash generation under the current industry cost structure. The firm noted that while tax credits for storage systems remain, the elimination of credits for residential solar leasing poses significant challenges for Sunrun’s business model.
