JPMorgan lifts Boss Energy stock rating to Overweight

On Friday, JPMorgan upgraded Boss Energy Ltd (BOE:AU) stock rating from Neutral to Overweight, adjusting the price target to AUD4.05, a slight increase from the previous target of AUD4.00. The upgrade follows a notable decline in the company’s shares over the past week.

Milan Tomic, an analyst at JPMorgan, noted the initial Neutral rating was primarily due to the stock’s valuation, as it was trading close to the firm’s AUD4.00 price target at the time. However, Boss Energy’s stock has since experienced a pullback of about 13% compared to the ASX’s marginal gain of 0.7%, positioning it at approximately a 15% discount to JPMorgan’s net present value (NPV) estimate.

The firm’s decision to upgrade the stock is also backed by adjustments in earnings projections based on the latest uranium forward curve. JPMorgan’s forecast for the company’s EBITDA has been increased to AUD14 million from AUD12 million for the fiscal year 2025, and to AUD142 million from AUD136 million for the fiscal year 2026.

With the recent decline in Boss Energy’s share price, the stock now presents a 15% potential upside to JPMorgan’s revised price target. The analyst’s commentary highlights the firm’s view that Boss Energy is currently their top choice within the uranium sector, suggesting confidence in the company’s prospects.
