T1 Energy (TE) has drawn fresh attention after recent market optimism around power demand linked to AI and data centers, along with its planned solar cell manufacturing facility in Texas.
See our latest analysis for T1 Energy.
That story has been reflected in the numbers, with T1 Energy’s 90-day share price return of 123.92% and 1-year total shareholder return of 343.09% pointing to strong recent momentum despite weaker multi year total shareholder returns.
If AI driven power demand has you rethinking the sector, this could be a good moment to widen your search and check out high growth tech and AI stocks too.
With TE trading at US$8.33, which is a substantial discount to both a US$10.50 analyst price target and an internal intrinsic value estimate, investors may ask whether there is still a buying opportunity or whether the market is already pricing in future growth.
Most Popular Narrative: 6.4% Undervalued
With T1 Energy last closing at $8.33 against a narrative fair value of $8.90, the most followed storyline frames today’s price as a discount that still depends heavily on execution in Texas and policy support.
The acceleration of domestic supply chain integration and the Corning partnership enable T1 to offer high U.S. content, FEOC compliant modules, differentiating the company from competitors and allowing customers to access valuable investment tax credits, which is expected to drive greater market share and revenue reliability through long term contracts.
Curious what sits behind that $8.90 fair value? The narrative leans on aggressive growth in U.S. capacity, improving margins and a forward earnings multiple that assumes those plans stay on track. The key question is how those ingredients combine over time.
This fair value view uses a 10.31% discount rate to bring projected cash flows and earnings back to today’s terms, so it rests on a relatively demanding revenue ramp and a positive margin transition from current losses to healthy profitability. That creates a clear tension between strong growth expectations and T1 Energy’s short record as a listed operator in large scale manufacturing.
Result: Fair Value of $8.90 (UNDERVALUED)

However, this story also leans on continued U.S. policy support and smooth execution of the G2_Austin build, both of which could unsettle the current valuation narrative.

While the fair value narrative points to a discount, the current P/S of 5.6x paints a tougher picture. It sits well above the US Electrical industry at 2.4x and also above a fair ratio of 4.1x, which hints at less margin for error if expectations are not met.
