Credit Suisse initiates coverage on Sunrun (NASDAQ: RUN) with a Outperform rating and a price target of $20.00.

Analyst P. Jobin commented, "In our view, RUN is positioned to gain share in the high growth solar service market with a differentiated multi-channel strategy and value enhancing pricing model. Sunrun is the third largest solar leasing company in the U.S., with 10% market share, and is projected to grow volumes organically by 73% in 2015. We believe that the company is well positioned to outgrow the market and generate above-peer returns in the long term given its multi-channel strategy, providing capital-efficient growth and broad reach, along with a distinctive pricing model that maximizes project-level returns."

He added, "Our $20 target price is based on a discounted cash flow framework that assumes a 50% discount to fundamental value of $40/share based on 54% growth in 2015, 75% in 2016, and 44% in 2017 and then only 15% through 2020. Our $20 target price implies 2.3x net retained value, a discount to SCTY's current multiple of 2.6x."
