Analyst

Juha Kinnunen

Fortum is active in the energy sector. In addition to the provision of electricity, a number of technical solutions are offered in heat optimization as well as apps that are used to keep track of energy consumption. The company also provides charging stations for electric cars. The largest activity is found around the Nordic market. The company was founded in 1998 and is headquartered in Espoo.

OP’s senior analyst Henri Parkkinen has made a video about Fortum  Fortum’s comparable EBITDA in Q4 was clearly below consensus. In the conference call following the results, the company announced that the capacity it offered was not selected for the final rounds of the bidding process for PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) contracts for Microsoft’s data centers under construction in Finland. Investors were disappointed by the news and the company’s share price dropped on Tuesday. In the video, OP’s senior analyst Henri Parkkinen reviews the company’s Q4 results and data center updates.

Significantly more electricity was generated via hydropower in Sweden in January 2026 compared to the previous January in 2025. This can be verified, for example, here: eSett At the moment, the deficit is mainly in Norwegian snow levels, so the situation is very good for Fortum. The deficit pushes up electricity prices but does not affect production volumes. If February and March play out as currently predicted, the Q1-2026 result will be very high despite the €41/MWh and 75% hedges for 2026. This is due to high production volumes (hydropower and nuclear power) and very high prices for the unhedged portion. When production is high, more of it is sold at high spot prices. Furthermore, the optimization premium will be very high. In practice, this year’s dividend will be earned in the first quarter.

Juha pulled a target of 20€ and more out of his sleeve. Osuuspankki wasn’t in a positive mood: 15.5 and sell. I’m following instructions and doing nothing.

It’s worth remembering that approximately 67% of Fortum’s hydropower capacity is located in Sweden.

Based on my own observations at the grassroots level monitoring dam water flow over the past two summers, surface and groundwater levels are exceptionally low. The 24-25 winter had an incredibly low amount of snow, and the meltwater runoff was very minimal. There wasn’t any proper rainfall during the summer. Rainfall in the autumn of '25 was scarce (some wells even ran dry), and this 25-26 winter doesn’t look particularly promising in terms of snow either. According to official data, water levels in Lake Saimaa are 30 centimeters below the long-term average. All in all, water levels are low; this may or may not have an impact, depending on the specific body of water.

hydro-reservoir.eu              Finland Hydro reservoir levels                              There is nothing particularly unusual about Finland’s storage levels compared to last year. Currently, the low snow depth may affect spring levels, and that is perhaps why they are holding back in advance. In Sweden and Norway, levels are clearly lower than last year, and as a result, the capacity of the entire Nordic region is not at the same level as last year. Sweden produced much less hydroelectric power in January than last year. If someone wants to check the snow depth in the Swedish fells compared to last year, they could eventually conclude how high prices will stay through the spring—depending, of course, on wind conditions as well.

Is there a way to conveniently track the water levels of hydroelectric power plants? I’m wondering, given this continuous extreme cold, whether the reservoirs are already empty or if there’s still enough water. It’s possible that January/February this year will yield quite a good result, even though a large part of production is locked in at a fairly low price.

Fortum

The company's Q2 result was good operationally and the reported figures were better than expected, but the EUR 5.7 billion loss is still nothing to celebrate. 

<p>The company's Q2 result were good operationally and the reported figures were better than expected, but the EUR 5.7 billion loss is still nothing to celebrate. Fortum's situation is twofold: On one hand, the Generation segment could post record results in the coming years if electricity prices remain at their peak, but on the other, Uniper's situation is messy at least until the German stabilization package is finalized. In principle, we are attracted by the value at the heart of Fortum, but there are too many uncertainties. There may be a fair weather after the storm, but first the damage caused by the storm must be assessed.</p>
