Shares of U.K.-listed electric charging infrastructure firm Pod Point are expected to surge by 118% over the next 12 months, according to Bank of America. The investment bank increased its price target and predicted shares of the company would rise to £1.74 in a note on April 11. The stock is up by more than 20% this year and was trading at £0.78 on Thursday. Bank of America expects the recent rise in the number of EVs in the U.K. to bolster demand for charging infrastructure and benefit the London-listed stock's bottom line. U.K. electric vehicle sales registrations have surged by 15% year-to-date, with battery electric vehicles reaching record highs in the first quarter of 2023, according to U.K. industry lobby group Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders. The SMMT added that the increase suggests that " supply chain challenges slowly continue to ease " and production lead times will return to normal throughout the year. PODP-GB 5Y line Bank of America has raised its expectations for EV sales in the U.K. between 2023 and 2025 by 3-4% compared to its earlier estimates in February. Pod Point, with a market cap of £120 million ($150 million), manufactures its EV chargers and provides customers in the U.K. and Norway access to its electricity network. Since 2020, France's state-owned energy company EDF has been a majority shareholder with a 54% stake, according to FactSet data. Founded in 2009, the company also maintains hundreds of charging stations at supermarkets in the U.K. Last year, it became a "preferred" home-charge point supplier for German automaker BMW . "We still see a clear need for UK charging infrastructure, benefitting Pod Point as the #1 in the market, and with >100% potential upside, we reiterate our Buy," wrote BofA analysts led by Marianne Bulot in a note to clients on Apr. 11. BofA also said the discounted valuation for Pod Point shares is "unjustified" given the company's growth. The analysts forecast a compound annual growth rate between 50% from now until the end of 2025 and around 35% over the next decade...

Time for Fairbairn to dip his hand in here again and buy some stock. Never really understand these automated trades, and how they are used to manipulate the price, but appear to create distortions nonetheless. I still believe this company has good prospects, but need to better monetize their assets.

Pod Point Group Plc posted Prelims for the year ended 31st December 2022 this morning. Group revenue was up 16% to £71.4m, revenues were higher across all segments. Gross margin dipped a little due to supply chain costs, the Group reported an adjusted EBITDA loss of £7.0m as expected. The balance sheet is strong with net cash of £74.1m, FY23 guidance was maintained, an acceleration of the business is targeted by management. The business is not yet profitable and investors will not see any profit in FY23 either, but obviously the sector and business have massive growth potential. Valuation looks reasonable with PS ratio at 1.23x. However, share price lacks momentum and has corrected lower over 70% since listing in November 2021. PODP is certainly an interesting company in a massive growth sector worth monitoring for the time being, but there is no rush to buy...

This was an exciting year for Pod Point, as we completed our first full year as a listed company. We made excellent progress towards our goal of travel that doesn't damage the earth and continued to invest in scaling the business in preparation for the UK ban of internal combustion engines in 2030.'

Like many others, we were negatively impacted by a number of well-documented macro-economic and geopolitical events; however, I am extremely proud of the team's performance. We achieved a 16% growth in revenue, with the 31% growth in our commercial segment being the highlight. We shipped and installed 68,693 charge points, and ended the year with over 195,096 connected units on our network. We transferred 367 GWh of electricity across our network and as a result helped our customers avoid circa 278k tonnes of CO2e. I am very much looking forward to accelerating the business further as we head into 2023.

As far as I can see, PodPoint pay for the electricity on a shrinking number of the Tesco chargers with Tesco paying on the rest, but they are gradually coming off that contract and becoming chargeable. This tends to be only the lower power 7kWh units as the 50kWh rapid chargers generally seem to be chargeable these days (they are regularly installed at Lidl) but I guess were probably on a similar two year contract. Certainly the 50kWh unit at our local Lidl was free for quite a while but then became chargeable to the user.

There are several PODP 7kWh chargers in our local shopping centre which were all free to use until recently but are now chargeable. Not sure who was paying for the electricity but that's profit for someone now!

PODP are also a popular choice for businesses installing EV charging for their staff, but I'm guessing they only get the income from selling the charger in those instances but happy to be corrected on that one.

I have dipped my toe in with a few shares today as I have had reasonable experiences with their chargers over the past few years. Will keep watching and may add more.

Well Tesco give away their pod point equipped charging, so I hope podp aren't on a precentage of sales!

A high chance of bp/shell buying their infrastructure (i.e. them) and adjusting the charging prices from 0p to 75p/kWh.

Our local Tesco also has a 50kW podp charger (along with the usualbatch of 3 and 7kW ones) - i think this may be rolled out to all Tescos. If so, lots of work for podp, just from this one parner.

So has David Wolffe just had a little bad luck over the last few years? What a very strange appointment. The share price reaction is predictable. I am all for giving people a chance to prove themselves but my feeling is the board have really shot themselves in the foot here. Shareholders are now paying two big salaries over the next nine months one of which appears to be to a future CFO who has a record of driving companies into the ground. Not to mention zero experience in the energy, Contemporary App Tech or Electrical Contracting sectors. All they needed to do was hold off on the announcement for six months until the market was healthier and use the time to recruit. I can only assume that he is known to the board so this is a job for a mate. I am happy he is glad to be joining the organisation, I shall be voting against the board appointment when the opportunity arises. He could of course change my view if he were to purchase a large quantity of shares in the market at these low prices in the coming days.

"Perhaps you ought to get out more!"

That was't being personal Indiestu, it was a light-hearted jest.


The PODP share price is blue today, not red, which indicates that the results today have been well-received.

Though institutions should have been well aware of the broad numbers in advance.

And I can't see that a half a day of minor share price action says much, or indeed anything, about an IPO nearly three and a half months ago.


Finally, I tend to be suspicious of anyone who claims certainty about future share price movements, which tend to be inherently uncertain.
