Premier Energy maintains its ambitious pace of development, and strategic acquisitions and regional expansion are the pillars of the company's growth, says Peter Stohr, the group's financial director, in ZF Capital Market 2025. «We have many aspirations for growth. Last week we announced an important transaction and we will continue to invest, as we have always said, and be a stock focused on increasing revenues on the stock market,» said Stohr. The company proposed to double its operating profit in the next 4-5 years, and the plans are on the right track. «Energy demand will increase, looking at AI and the growing number of electric vehicles. In this context, energy growth may be even higher than GDP,» explained the financial director. Premier Energy recently acquired one of the largest wind farms in Central Europe, a 158 MW project located in a very good area of Hungary, between the Alps and the Carpathians. «It is an excellent asset that we operate, and the regional expansion in Romania and Moldova will create value for shareholders in the future,» added Stohr. The company finances its projects from its own cash flow and does not intend to resort to external financing. At the ongoing IPO, approximately 29% of the shares were offered to the public, with a diversified base of investors: local institutional, local retail (20% of the placement) and international investors. «We have over 50,000 retail investors participating in the IPO, a sign of the development of the Romanian market,» Stohr emphasized. As for liquidity, it remains modest. «Many investors are of the buy and hold type, and the actual traded volume is not large. However, it is healthy to have a diversified shareholder base and let the market do its job,» concluded Premier Energy's financial director.
