Posted at 24/9/2023 18:11 by mrscruff As of the 24th of September 2023, EGL represents one of the most promising low risk investment opportunities in our lifetime. However, some investors, some here, all fail to recognise its potential and are instead drawn to cash or higher yield, despite the fact that investments with higher yields frequently carry substantial debt and lower internal rates of return (IRR) and eventual total return.Sometimes higher yielding stocks simply pay out all their earnings (e.g. REITs) and don't hold any back anything for growth like most utilities and infrastructure companies EGL invest in do. If you're enticed by higher-yielding cash options, you will be overlooking the superior IRR potential offered here. Moreover, when cash yields eventually decrease, you could find yourself paying 25-35% more for EGL. The potential for upside risk with EGL is inevitable for those who hold onto cash. |

Posted at 29/5/2018 22:16 by speedsgh Half-year Report - from the Chairman's Statement: Dividends The Company paid dividends totalling 3.2p per share to shareholders during the half-year to 31 March, 2018. At an annualised rate, this represented a dividend yield of 4.9% based on the NAV at 31 March, 2018 and 5.6% based on the share price at the same date. The Board continues to monitor the income generated by the portfolio and the net income available for distribution with a view to a progressive dividend policy. from the Investment Manager's Report: Outlook The global utilities sector has underperformed the broader equity markets for the past year and relative valuations of many companies in the global sector are very low by historical standards. These low valuations are, we believe, largely attributable to investors favouring cyclical companies, which benefit from strong economic growth, over companies they perceive as defensive, such as utilities. The current low valuations in the sector prevail at a time when the fundamentals of the sector are improving and corporate activity is on the increase. We forecast that earnings will increase by 8% per annum in our sectors in Europe over the next 3 years, higher than the market average; that rate will be closer to 6% per annum in the US which will, in all likelihood, be lower than the market's tax reform fuelled growth in the near-term. Based on our analysis of free cash flows, we have recently increased the expected dividend growth profile of the Company's portfolio to 6.8% per annum (from 6.1% per annum) through 2020. Many diversified multi-utilities - particularly in Europe - are restructuring their businesses to focus on core activities. Companies are also showing more financial discipline and free cash flows are increasing across the sector. As a result, we believe that many utility and infrastructure companies will increase their dividends faster than the market expects. With uncertainty about the outlook for economic growth and markets likely to increase over the coming months, we believe that the utility and infrastructure sectors should provide investors with good returns on a total return basis over the longer-term. |
Posted at 03/3/2017 11:50 by speedsgh CJ - The following is from the July 2016 prospectus...DIVIDEND POLICY "The Board believes that a relatively high level of income from a global specialist equity fund will provide an appealing investment proposition for investors searching for yield at a time of record low interest rates. The Company will, therefore, target an initial dividend yield of at least 4 per cent. on net assets using gearing and, if necessary, reserves to augment the Portfolio yield. The Company intends to pay dividends to Shareholders on a quarterly basis, payable on the last Business Day of February, May, August and November each year, with the first dividend expected to be paid on 30 November 2016." Also see the timetable set out in the following announcement... Quarterly Dividend - |

Global markets have started 2017 with a ‘risk‐on cyclical sectors and they have shunned long‐duration business models like utilities, anticipating a protracted period of rising interest rates. Ac unprecedented imbalance; Exane estimates comparably low exposure to utilities by European investors. We, however, find significant and fundamental attraction in our investment universe which offers a combination of growth and sustainable dividends, often with some inflation hedge. In the US, some infrastructure companies will benefit from the new administration’ fundamentals remain strong and companies are demonstrating an average dividend growth profile of more than 6% per annum. Co implementation of the President‐elec renewable energy policy can or will be reversed and, therefore, we still favour those operators which benefit from secure returns on a high quality asset base. In Europe, the context is more diverse given the differences in regulatory models and business mixes. As a sector, European utilities have been hit even harder than their US counterparts since November, principally due to the spike in European government bond yields. N will benefit from a gradual acceleration in GDP growth and inflation, and regulators still want to incentivise investment given the high capex requirements in energy infrastructure. Overall, we favour companies with low leverage, opportunity for growth and solid dividend policies. In the pure regulated space, we look for inflation‐hedg consequently, the portfolio has a fairly low weighting in thermal power generators; instead, we favour those companies which are more immune to external factors and policy changes.

Posted at 16/11/2016 09:36 by jimcar It could be BTEM. They are value investors looking for changes in businesses. They seem to have taken the cash after the reorganisation and probably can't see any more restructuring for now. They are left with a small holding in EGL and they say they want a more focused portfolio, so it seems likely they would want out. |
