Oddo BHF confirms his buying advice on the Engie share this morning, the target price being 15 euros.

Analysts believe that the quarterly accounts published by the energy company, marked by an organic growth of 5% of sales and a current operating income of 3.5 billion, are in line with expectations. The 'signs of improvement of the dynamics (are) confirmed', title the research note. Despite the disappointments of its Belgian nuclear power plants, Engie has also confirmed its forecasts (recently clipped) for the whole year.

Subsequently, Oddo BHF believes that the Customer Solutions division, with no great relief until now, 'should become a performance driver' as early as the 4th quarter and in 2019. In addition, the availability of Belgian nuclear reactors should move from 52% in 2018 to 74% in 2019.

'Engie is currently trading at 11.6 times in PER (for) 2019, which equates to a discount of around 15% compared to peers', Oddo BHF concludes, while earnings per share are expected to increase by around 10% per year between 2018 and 2021.

Moorside power station plans in tatters after Toshiba pulls the plug on NuGen
Shockwaves sent across Cumbria after Japanese company announces it will wind up the developer behind the £15 billion project

The £15 billion Moorside nuclear power station project in Cumbria has been left in tatters.

The economy-boosting project will now not happen after the owners of the developer behind the project, NuGen, took the decision to wind it up after failing to make sufficient progress on securing a buyer.

Toshiba announced this morning that it was taking the drastic step 18 months after it was left as the sole owner of NuGen, which had hoped to develop the Moorside site north of Sellafield.

The project would have created thousands of jobs during the construction and operation stage and generated around seven per cent of the UK’s energy needs.

Toshiba had said it wanted to offload NuGen by the end of the financial year, as it looks to divest completely from nuclear activity, but could make the decision to wind up the company at its board meeting in Tokyo on Thursday, if it was not convinced a deal was achievable.

In a statement it said: “Under Toshiba’s policy to eliminate risks related to the overseas nuclear power construction business, Toshiba has invited new investors to participate in NuGen, and also considered the sale of Toshiba Group’s shareholding in NuGen.

NuGen was initially co-owned by Toshiba and the French firm Engie. Toshiba was subsequently forced to buy the remaining 40% of NuGen it did not already own via a bankruptcy condition related to Engie.

Paris (AFP) - Engie still plans to restart four nuclear reactors in Belgium by the end of the year, while the country currently has only one in operation, said Wednesday the French group.

"In addition to Doel 3, which has been running since the end of July, four other units (...) are due to restart by the end of the year," confirmed Paulo Almirante, Engie's director of operations, at the end of the year. a conference for financial analysts.

The French group and its Belgian subsidiary Electrabel hope to have five nuclear reactors in operation by the end of the year.

Only one of the seven operated by Electrabel is currently operating in Belgium, which has even caused a fear of a shortage of electricity in the kingdom.

The prolonged shutdowns follow the discovery of a deterioration of the concrete of some premises annexed to the reactor building. Anomalies have also been observed in the reinforcement of concrete in some sites.

In detail, the restart of Thiange 1 is scheduled for 18 November, that of Doel 1 on 10 December, followed by Doel 4 on 15 December and Doel 2 on 31 December.

"It's always our goal and there is nothing today that should prevent it," insisted Paulo Almirante.

French energy group Engie SA (ENGI.FR) said Wednesday that its nine-month earnings remained broadly flat, hit by the depreciation of the Brazilian real and the U.S. dollar against the euro.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization fell by 0.3% to 6.5 billion euros ($7.4 billion), while revenue rose 0.4% to EUR43.0 billion.

Engie said Ebitda rose 5% on an organic basis, thanks in part to good performance from its energy-management activities, which benefited from favorable market conditions in Europe.

The company confirmed its 2018 financial targets.

PARIS (Agefi-Dow Jones) - Suspense rises in the corridors of the Suez headquarters in La Défense. The nominating committee will choose in a few weeks the replacement of Jean-Louis Chaussade, general manager of the group of water and waste treatment for ten years, soon reached by the statutory age limit.

This change of CEO will be accompanied by the appointment of a new Chairman of the Board, Gérard Mestrallet is also reached by the age limit at the general meeting of spring 2018.

Of the five deputy general managers launched in the race for the post of Jean-Louis Chaussade, two broke away after the hearings conducted this summer, tells L'Agefi a close source: Bertrand Camus and Marie-Ange Debon. But Jean-Marc Boursier, deputy general manager in charge of finance, who has just presented good quarterly, and Philippe Maillard, DGA Suez France, are still potential underdogs, adds the source. On the other hand, Jean-Yves Larrouturou would be outdistanced. External applications are not excluded. The name of Jérôme Pécresse, General Manager of GE Renewable Energy, is mentioned.

Initiated before the summer by Gérard Mestrallet, the nomination process has since been taken over by Jean-Pierre Clamadieu, the new president of Engie. The energy group is Suez's key shareholder with 32% of the capital. The choice of the tandem chairman and CEO depends on Engie's strategic plans for its stake in Suez, valued at 2.6 billion euros at current prices. If the energy group wants to keep its influence, it will necessarily want to appoint a president in his hand.

This raises the question of the future of Jean-Louis Chaussade. His promotion to the presidency is not acquired at this stage, says a source. Setting up a leadership pair made up solely of people who have made their career at Suez would not bring the desired regeneration of governance. In addition, Jean-Louis Chaussade's relationship with Isabelle Kocher, Engie's executive director and Suez director, is not unheard of for their warmth.

The final decision is expected by February, before the publication of Engie's annual results, the first since the appointment of Jean-Pierre Clamadieu as chairman of the group.
