Shore Capital starts coverage of Ithaca Energy with a buy rating and 20% upside target.

Shore Capital initiated coverage of Ithaca Energy PLC with a buy rating and set a price target of 340p, implying about 20% upside. Ithaca, recently promoted to the FTSE 100, is the largest listed producer focused solely on the UK Continental Shelf, producing around 125,000 barrels of oil equivalent daily with operating costs below the basin average. The broker highlights a strong dividend yield forecast of about 8.5%, supported by a payout policy of 20% to 35% of post-tax cash flow. Key upcoming catalysts include potential government support for domestic oil and gas projects and the approval of the Rosebank development, in which Ithaca holds a 20% stake, alongside the UK Chancellor's Budget announcement on October 28.
