Altagas Ltd (ALA-T) has garnered positive reviews from experts, with many highlighting its strong asset portfolio that includes significant operations in the US East Coast and Canadian West Coast. The company is characterized by a stable mix of energy infrastructure (approximately 45%) and regulated utilities (about 55%), which provides a balance of growth potential and stability. Analysts commend its midstream operations and the pivotal role natural gas plays in supporting data centers, particularly as natural gas demand rises with the growth of AI infrastructure. While some analysts caution about its fair valuation and recent price movements, the overall sentiment leans towards growth opportunities associated with its strategic assets, particularly in a recovering energy market. The company's consistent dividend growth and management quality further bolster its appeal among long-term investors.

BUY

Part of the absolute disaster in crude. If you have it, stay in. He’d buy it here. (Analysts’ price target is $21.42)

DON'T BUY

This name is a bit of a concern. Most of the technicals on this name are negative. It has been on a long downward trend. He does not think the dividend is safe.

COMMENT

Will there be more downward pressure? It's a toughie. They expanded in the U.S and bit off more than they could chew. They also changed top management. Financing didn't go well. It's a comedy of errors. When they announced the dividend cut--and they should. They will get a bottom in place. If ALA does another dilution (which he doesn't expect), that's a caveat. Now, it's very cheap. If you're patient, wait it out.

WATCH

There is a lot of concern about earnings and viability of the dividend. It looks like TRP-T in 1998 when they talked of reducing their dividend. It reversed since then. ALA-T has a lot of nervousness. All the fundamentals changed and it is now a dangerous stock. We need to wait for a confirmation of the reversal of the downtrend. They got rid of the premium drip program but that is just a drip in the bucket.

STRONG BUY

Can't believe how far down it's at now, at 30% discount to its book value. This has big, big upside. Has a $21 book value, which this could reach without breathing hard. Sometimes stocks sell-off irrationally.

DON'T BUY

Sell after doubling down recently? They'll likely cut the dividend; that's why there's major selling. They swallowed a lot of debt to pay for the WGL purchase. They sold some assets, but it's not enough--they need to sell more. They just missed targets badly. Failed to pay a good price for WGL and he doesn't feel they can absorb WGL with its other assets.

HOLD

They just pulled off a huge acquisition in the US. If we can close above the $20 level then there should be a bigger shift underway and the stock is improving. There was a short term base forming over the last couple of days. If we close below the lows of the last couple of days then you should reduce exposure. Wait before you buy it.

DON'T BUY

Dividend of 13%, so expect a 50% dividend cut. This has been a complete disaster. Yes, dividends are great but what's a company's payout ratio and industry they're in? Look for dividend growers instead.

TOP PICK

Bought a ¼ position when dividend went over 10%. They’re buffing up the balance sheet buy selling assets. Alberta-based is negative, but at this price it’s a good play for cash flow. Yield is 13.2%. (Analysts’ price target is $25.58)

SELL ON STRENGTH

The balance sheet is stretched and still needs fixing. They recently spun-off. A dividend cut is likely. It's getting hit today. You could see a dead-cat balance. This sector is out of favour. Has good assets. Sell it on any blip back up. Investors today are assuming a dividend cut.

BUY

They did a spinoff of some of their Canadian assets to pay off some of their debt. Dividend payout is high but not inconceivable that it can stay there. If they did cut the dividend, it would not be a major cut. He likes the company. There is some upside potential. There are safer names in the utility space. This is a high leveraged utility name.

DON'T BUY

They once had a good balance between utilities and non, but they just spun out their utilities. Also, they're fairly levered. Will they get a negative credit re-rating? And the dividend is a worrysome 10%. Look elsewhere in this space and be wary of ALA.

DON'T BUY

The 10% dividend isn't safe. They bought WGL in 2016 and this expensive deal just closed. The market didn't like it. ALA now has a ton of debt and it's paying it down by spinning off the Canadian assets. The market gave it a giant yawn, so ALA had to lower the IPO price. He doesn't like the management. Look elsewhere for a stable divide

BUY ON WEAKNESS

They are overleveraged. They spun out their utilities becoming a pure play on the midstream space. he thinks they will right size the dividend yield.

TOP PICK

He had sold this in January because of uncertainty in their acquisition. Within the last month or two, this has been unfairly smoked. They still need to decrease their debt and realize another asset sale to pay down some debt. It is very out of favour right now. Yield = 10.2% (Analysts’ price target is $26.33)
