Deutsche Bank analyst Corinne Blanchard maintains $ESS Tech (GWH.US)$ with a hold rating, and adjusts the target price from $13.5 to $8.5.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 26.6% and a total average return of -17.6% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $ESS Tech (GWH.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
The firm is adopting a cautious stance on ESS Tech due to indications that the company is exploring financing possibilities. There's an observed preference to wait for more definitive information regarding the company's capital structure and delivery timelines. Nonetheless, there is recognition of the substantial market demand for long-duration storage solutions, and the belief persists that ESS Tech is well-positioned to become a dominant force in this industry over time.
Market conditions and a slower than anticipated uptake have led to a more negative stance on ESS Tech's shares. The third-quarter results fell short of expectations primarily due to project postponements, resulting in revenue recognition being deferred to the following quarter. Signs of heightened adoption and installations, along with further financing, would be necessary before adopting a more positive view on the stock.
