TOMORROW’S TRADE IDEA, TODAY

Fueling the Future

Investing in Hydrogen

Investment bank Metzler is bullish on Wolftank Group (WAH), an environmental technology company based in Austria. According to the firm, the company’s stock could see gains of up to 140% over the next year. 

Metzler noted that Europe is beefing up its hydrogen infrastructure, and Wolftank could see a serious windfall from this influx of capital. 

The bank’s analysts have given Wolftank a price target of $24.80, more than double Monday’s opening price.

Revenue Growth

Hydrogen refueling stations are a key piece of Wolftank’s strategy. Over the past 10 years, the number of stations in Europe has ballooned by 600%. 

The company is projecting 2024 revenue for hydrogen projects to come in at over 16 million euros, and around 18 million in 2025. Metzler believes other projects in Wolftank’s pipeline could add at least another 80 million euros to 2025’s revenue. 

According to analyst Guido Hoymann, Wolftank could see significant growth opportunities as conventional tanks and refueling stations are phasing out.

Growing Business

Wolftank announced last week that it had secured two contracts worth 6.7 million euros. Last year, it announced several large public transportation contracts in Italy centered around hydrogen refueling. 

The company operates under the assumption that public transportation will continue using hydrogen. These recent contracts indicate that the assumption is correct. 

If Metzler is right, Wolftank is well-positioned to take advantage of a growing European market. Investors have an opportunity to take advantage of the landscape as well.
