After the selloff, the bear thesis on Enphase Energy is "baked into the shares," he added.

Although the long-term growth outlook remains uncertain, as management finalizes and implements a new business strategy, Enphase Energy's lack of debt and high free cash flow yield provide sufficient near-term support, the analyst stated.

"We expect channel de-stocking to finish into early 2026, with conditions normalizing in 2H26, supported by declining interest rates, power-price trends and better access to financing options," he further wrote.
