Is Aker Solutions (OB:AKSO) Still Undervalued On Its Canada Offshore Wind Win?

Simply Wall St · 1d ago

Aker Solutions (OB:AKSO) moved back into focus after its Entr unit secured a first consultancy mandate in Canada’s offshore wind sector, extending the group’s energy transition work beyond its existing European base.

The Entr contract landed in a share price that has already gained momentum, with Aker Solutions up 33.79% on a year-to-date share price return and supported by a very strong 1-year total shareholder return of 82.54%. This comes even though the 90-day share price return is down 9.68% as some earlier enthusiasm has cooled.

Aker Solutions now trades after a strong 1 year run and a recent pullback on the chart. The key question is whether that combination still offers enough potential to justify the risk as valuation moves into the spotlight next.

Most Popular Narrative: 7% Undervalued

Aker Solutions last closed at NOK41.26, while the most followed narrative places fair value at NOK44.56, so the gap between price and model is modest but meaningful for anyone weighing fresh capital after the recent pullback.

Aker Solutions is experiencing high order intake driven by new contracts, particularly in offshore wind and carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects. This indicates that revenue could increase as these projects are executed.

See why 11 investors see Aker Solutions as 7% undervalued.

Result: Fair Value of NOK44.56 (UNDERVALUED)

Still, the legacy renewables projects that management describe as operationally and commercially challenging, along with supply chain and tariff risks, could easily strain Aker Solutions' margins and weaken this undervaluation narrative.
