23/2/2018 08:27	Brinks there appears to be a perception that once interest rates rise ,it is an indicator that inflation will be back.This implies that equities are the best place to be not proxy bonds. Time will tell	atlantic57	Read Full Thread Reply
23/2/2018 07:58	Atlantic, agreed to some extent. Bond proxy perception appears to be main driving factor recently. Still yields here far outweigh rate rises so I never really get my head around this. Did note that there was a sell off after McDonald's key note speech on utilities recently. I closed all my long svt positions and moved into lloy back in Dec. Banks are more attractive for me long term atm.	brinks_matt	Read Full Thread Reply
22/2/2018 22:05	Brinks matt i think yoiur comments are very significant. I Think the slump in utilities is much more about their role as Bond Proxies and much less about political turmoil. After all a general election is 2022	atlantic57	Read Full Thread Reply
22/2/2018 21:12	Gove is not criticising at Severn Trent. It is utilities like Thames water he was referring to. Thames were taken over by private equity. They loaded it with debt and withdrew billions. Then they located offshore and pay no UK corporation tax. Underperformance on service and investment is commonplace. It really stinks and is the unacceptable face of capitalism.	careful	Read Full Thread Reply
22/2/2018 20:46	Backdrop of: political risk anticipated tough PR19 determinations seen as a bond proxy and recent rising bond yields? I think the dramatic rise in Utilities and other bond proxies at 15:00GMT was possibly a result of a slight drop in the 10 year US Treasury yield: https://www.ft.com/content/da099842-1777-11e8-9e9c-25c814761640	brinks_matt	Read Full Thread Reply

07/2/2018 07:10	Trading Update for the period 1 October 2017 to 7 February 2018 Severn Trent, a leading UK water and waste water company, today provides its trading update. Financial outlook: The Board continues to expect that the Group will deliver FY17/18 trading performance in line with its expectations and guidance previously disclosed at the HY17/18 results presentation on 23rd November 2017. We also reaffirm that at least £50 million customer ODI(1) outperformance payments are expected to be earned this year. Delivering sustainable performance for all stakeholders: AMP6(2): We are focused on providing benefits to our customers, communities, colleagues and investors, and we have generated sector-leading outperformance payments on key customer ODIs and continue to do well year-to-date. We have positive momentum on Waste, particularly on internal and external sewer flooding, category 3 pollutions and serious pollution incidents. We re-confirm that we will hit the AMP6 outperformance cap(3). On Water, we have had more supply interruptions than normal in the last quarter, but are encouraged by the reduction in water quality complaints, which were down 12% year on year. We confirm that we expect to earn at least £50 million customer ODI(1) outperformance payments across Waste and Water this year. We continue to work hard on improving our SIM(4) scores. We also note that we have one of the sector-leading scores in CCW's(5) independent annual survey on what our customers think. We have delivered material reductions in our cost of finance. Since our HY17/18 results announcement, a £400m fixed-rate sterling bond with a coupon of 6% matured and was refinanced in part with a £250m five-year sterling bond with a coupon of 1.625%. We continue to explore varied sources of finance to help positon us as an upper-quartile performer in AMP7. AMP7(2): Ofwat announced its PR19(6) Final Methodology in December 2017, providing welcome clarity on upcoming plans. We expected a tough review, recently restructuring our wholesale business to improve operational effectiveness and our customers' experience. We are encouraged by the enhanced incentive regime, creating strong outperformance opportunities. We are positioning ourselves for continued success in AMP7. To assist AMP7 planning, we have launched our largest ever customer engagement programme, including a community panel of 10,000 customers, a review of two million customer contacts and analysis of over seven million social media conversations. This helps us understand the core service improvements and wider social and environmental initiatives our customers expect, thereby underpinning future growth in our RCV(7). Corporate social responsibility: We are conscious of Severn Trent's role in society through the impact on our community, the wider environment, and the importance of workplace diversity. Our work in the community delivers benefits through our extensive customer education and employee volunteering programmes. We are keen to play our part in supporting social mobility and we have a highly-rated apprentice programme. We have reported a gender pay gap of 2.4% and, while we have even further to go, we have made strong progress in supporting workplace diversity and gender pay equality. We have a strong record of environmental performance and through our renewable energy business we are on track to generate the equivalent of 50% of our energy needs by 2020.	skinny	Read Full Thread Reply

06/11/2017 09:36	Good to see SVT doing better. The recent rebate from the regulator for outperformance is a welcome change. Changed the mood. We had got used to the idea that regulation was a stick used to punish utilities for political ends.	careful	Read Full Thread Reply
27/9/2017 13:25	Yes and sadly it looks more and more likely that he would win. Let's hope May sits tight and doesn't listen to her 'advisors' again. Was going to buy more PNN for the growing dividend, but see it as risky to increase positions in utilities now. Ditto RMG.	campervan1	Read Full Thread Reply

21/7/2016 12:21	covered in beaufort's morning report: "Severn Trent’s performance for the period from 1st April 2016 to 19th July 2016 has been in line with its expectations and previous guidance. The company continued to focus on improving customer service and operational and financial performance. The company is progressing well to deliver targeted efficiency savings in the second year of the AMP6 regulatory period. The completion of the formation of JV (Water Plus) with United Utilities is a positive development. The JV would combine the complementary skills of both companies across sales, customer service, business strategy and credit management to deliver an attractive proposition for large and small business customers across England and Scotland. The company plans to invest for enhancing the customer experience. We are buoyed by Severn Trent’s progress and expect it to continue its growth momentum in the current year."
