One gathers that an analyst – a Mr. Nate Pendleton of Texas Capital Securities, no less – has deigned to bestow a ‘buy’ recommendation upon Nano Nuclear Energy (NNE +6.98%). The market, predictably, responded with a flutter of excitement, pushing the stock up a perfectly respectable 7% yesterday. A trifle excessive, perhaps, considering the S&P 500 merely yawned its way to a 0.4% gain. One does wish for a little restraint, really.
A Nod to Nano
Mr. Pendleton, it seems, is rather taken with Nano’s Kronos MMR micro-reactor. He’s set a price target of $49 per share – a rather optimistic figure, nearly 40% above the recent closing price. One suspects a touch of enthusiasm, but then, analysts are paid to be optimistic. It’s a charming delusion, really.
Apparently, the Kronos is a marvel of efficiency and safety, and, crucially, doesn’t require that frightfully expensive HALEU fuel. A sensible advantage, wouldn’t you agree? And the company, commendably, is diversifying – offering exposure to the less glamorous, but no less essential, business of specialized fuel transportation. One must applaud a company that understands the importance of a well-rounded portfolio, even if it’s not their own.
Still a Game of Chance
Mr. Pendleton, with admirable candor, acknowledges that Nano is still, shall we say, pre-revenue. A polite way of saying they haven’t actually sold anything yet. And, of course, deploying these solutions isn’t a mere trifle. It requires, one imagines, a certain amount of… competence.
However, the Americans are currently in the midst of a nuclear energy revival, which is, if nothing else, rather convenient for Nano. A large, glowing green light, as they say. One is inclined to be bullish, naturally. But let’s be perfectly clear: this stock is a speculative play. A delightful gamble for those with a surplus of funds and a robust constitution. One wouldn’t dream of recommending it to anyone remotely sensible.
