PARIS (Reuters) -Renault’s shares rose as much as 4.5% at Tuesday’s open after the French automaker ditched plans to list its electric vehicle business Ampere, citing sluggish stock market conditions.
Renault (EPA:RENA) said on Tuesday it had enough cash to do without the stockmarket listing and would continue to fund the development of Ampere until it reaches break-even in 2025.
“Cancellation of the Ampere IPO should be positive for current shareholders as it minimises upfront dilution ..and removes a layer of complexity in the investment case,” Jefferies analysts said in a note.
Analysts at Berenberg noted that Renault stressed that “record margins and strong cash generation are likely to be released at the company’s full-year results on 15 February….This makes capital raised from a potential IPO of Ampere as less necessary,”
Renault’s shares were up 1.68% at 0836 GMT.
