TLN: More EBITDA More Value

By Hamed Khorsand

  • TLN benefited from warmer weather in the second quarter with its power plants running without any issues. The increase in electricity demand resulted in TLN reporting adjusted EBITDA higher estimates. 
  • TLN’s management suggesting there could be more data center deals in the future was the biggest takeaway from the earnings call. 
  • Considering the added benefit of the auction results for 2025-26, we believe there is ample reason to expect TLN’s stock to trade above our price target of $145.
