17/5/2012 16:01 | Wish I'd bought more of these last year and less insurers that have taken a pounding. Had the CEO on R5 this morning - optimistic looking forward and thought the UK needed a secure, low carbon source of energy. He wasn't so forthcoming on exactly what mix of nuclear/wind/tidal that would be. Happy to hold these long term. | dr biotech | |

19/3/2012 16:25 | M/L view on NG. Though the NG. downgrade is largely on valuation. BE During the last year, National Grid has gained 29% and outperformed the wider sector by 34%, largely due to its defensive characteristics and emerging clarity on regulation and dividend safety. The shares have continued to outperform the sector YTD and having now broken through our 640p Price Objective, we think the shares may mark time until the next catalysts begin to appear towards the end of the year. Progress in the RIIO regulatory review of the UK business has been encouraging so far, and we continue to believe that the final outcome due in December will be acceptable. Nevertheless, the initial proposals due in July are unlikely to represent the regulator's best offer, and we cannot preclude some uncertainty. We anticipate that in January 2013 management ought to be able to commit to a longer term dividend growth policy and outline options for medium term funding. Successful rehabilitation of the US business could add at least another 50p to our valuation, although this too could take until 2013 to crystallize. We still consider National Grid a core sector holding, and move our rating from Buy to Neutral following the strong performance. from ftalphaville... | kiwi2007 | |
19/3/2012 16:24 | M/L Sector view Sector earnings have been cut by close to 5% for 2013 and leverage has deteriorated further this results season. So it is no surprise to us that the sector is among the worst performers YTD. With almost 10% earnings cuts LTM, we think consensus will stabilise for 2012/2013 but still needs to fall for 2014/2015 by at least 5%. Consensus expectations for a recovery are in our view not supported by fundamentals. Upcoming dividend payments and the lack of more bad news may offer short-term support, but long term fundamentals remain weak and valuation indicators do not appear attractive enough in our view to make a value call. BE Fundamentals are weak and show no signs of relief. Spreads are low in Spain and UK, and could deteriorate further in Germany and Italy. Demand is weak and attempts by the EU to push up CO2 prices have remained timid. We have seen a deterioration of most indicators LTM, and do not see a recovery any time soon. In addition, capex is low, leverage too high and cost of financing will likely continue to rise. The only positive is a continued expectation of normalising earnings in downstream gas activities by 2013. On aggregate, we expect a poor earnings outlook with +4% annual EPS growth between 2012 and 2015 well below the rest of the market and making low near-term sector multiples unattractive. BE We show in this report that after halving to 11.7% over the last 3 years the sector ROE will likely recover by 150 bps by 2015, mainly driven by regulated and French water names. Integrated utilities will only see a modest improvement. We believe that current P/B ratios overvalue companies like RWE, Iberdrola, Fortum, CEZ and Centrica, where ROE will be under pressure over the next 4 years. We view the discount to book on Enel, Endesa and EDF as fully justified for now. We think Veolia and Gas Natural appear as the most undervalued and see GDF, SEV and E.ON presenting growing ROE profiles, lower leverage and regulatory risks. | kiwi2007 |
