Enphase Energy (ENPH) just started shipping its new IQ EV Charger 2 across the U.S. and Canada, a move that quietly pushes the stock’s story beyond solar into mainstream home and commercial EV charging.
See our latest analysis for Enphase Energy.
The new IQ EV Charger 2 and recent PowerMatch launch in Europe arrive against a tough backdrop, with the 1 year total shareholder return down sharply and the year to date share price return still deeply negative. However, the strong 7 day share price return suggests early signs of momentum as investors reassess Enphase’s longer term growth and diversification story.
If this kind of clean energy pivot has your attention, it is also worth exploring other high growth tech and AI names through high growth tech and AI stocks for fresh ideas beyond solar and EV charging.
With shares still down nearly 60 percent over the past year but trading about 20 percent below both analyst targets and intrinsic value estimates, is Enphase finally a contrarian buying opportunity, or is the market already discounting its next growth leg?
With Enphase Energy’s fair value pegged around $38.85 versus a $31.24 last close, the most followed narrative argues the market is underpricing its next phase of cash flow stability.
Upcoming launches of next-generation products including the IQ9 microinverter with gallium nitride technology, the fifth-generation high-density battery, and bidirectional EV chargers position Enphase to capture new commercial, multi-phase, and EV oriented market segments, leading to a structurally lower cost base and improved gross margins.
Want to see how modest top line expectations still point to richer earnings and a higher multiple than today? The real reveal is in the margin math and 2028 profit bridge driving that discount rate and fair value. Curious what has to go right for this story to hold together, and how far sentiment can lag behind those projections.
Result: Fair Value of $38.85 (UNDERVALUED)

However, lingering U.S. residential solar weakness and elevated microinverter inventories could still compress margins and delay the cash flow stability that this narrative assumes.
