This summary was created by AI, based on 9 opinions in the last 12 months.

Experts generally view Emera Inc (EMA) positively, emphasizing its strong dividend yield and growth prospects, especially in the U.S. market. Many analysts appreciate the company's stable performance and reliability amidst fluctuating commodity prices, particularly highlighting its operations in Florida and Nova Scotia. Some see the potential for capital gains and dividend increases as regulatory changes may uncap rates in Nova Scotia.

Overall, the sentiment remains optimistic for those looking for a stable income-generating stock.

Electricity demand in North America continues to rise. Emera will sort out issues in Nova Scotia. Their New Meico and Tampa centres are growing, needing more electricity. It pays over a 5% dividend.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

EMA will experience lower earnings this year, with a recovery in 2024. Growth is relatively low, but this is common for the industry. The Q1 was fine and exceeded expectations. We see nothing overly wrong with the company. Payout ratio is about 73%, so there is not huge room for dividend increases, but this may change next year. We think it is mostly a sector and higher-interest-rates rate problem. The stock is up 4% this year, more or les inline with the TSX's return.

COMMENT

The big question is: What will happen to interest rates? These stocks are sensitive to them. Rates have to rise above inflation in order to slow the latter. We are not there yet. If inflation takes off (50/50 chance), then Emera won't do well. This is worth $39.

Weak finish last year due to regulatory problems in Nova Scotia, plus Florida storm damage. All utilities had a downdraft in Sept/Oct last year. Likes it here, buying at these levels. Electricity demand will continue, and distribution infrastructure will increase as a multi-decade story.

(A Top Pick Aug 31/22, Down 10%) All utilities have pulled back since mid-2022. Emera has exposure to Florida, which suffered outages due to strong weather. Don't hold this now. Utilities are weak in the first months of a year.

A great company. Interest rates have climbed a lot, but will slow and stay around 5%. So, utilities will have a tougher go. Good company as is Fortis and Hydro One, but the big question is do you want exposure to utilities. EMA's dividend is safe, but a caveat is a cap on rates by governments which would limit upside.

The Nova Scotia rate settlement looks better than feared. If regulators approve it, he'll boost EMA's ROE assumptions. Even without approval, this stock looks reasonable at 16x 2023 earnings, 5.5% EPS growth and a nice 5.3% dividend. You don't have to buy today, but wait for a pullback. Overall, it's attractive vs. the market.

Utilities tend to do well prior to economic weakness. Not performing well. Over the next 2 years, don't put a lot into utilities, won't outperform as the macro improves. Regulatory risk will affect margins. Rising rates make the static dividend less attractive. Yield is 5.4%.

Not entirely in renewables. See his Top Picks. Reasonably valued, 1.5x price to book. History of pretty consistent dividend increases, expects that to continue. Bit sensitive to interest rates. Wouldn't begrudge anyone buying it. Not concerned about Nova Scotia tax increase. Yield is 5.5%.

Seasonality is September 13 - October 27. Utility sector has done extremely well in 2022. Over 95% regulated contracts. Sometimes boring is good. Should continue to perform well relative to the market, especially if we see more volatility in September and October. Yield is 4.35%. (Analysts’ price target is $65.00)

50% of revenues come from Florida. Growth profile is fairly solid. Very defensive, which he likes right now. He prefers AQN, with a more diversified footprint. Also BIP.UN, with diversification, global platform, and more attractive valuation. But nothing wrong with this name.

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Rising rates will add to their debt service costs, though all utilities carry a lot of debt. Emera’s debt-to-capital of 61%. is in-line with the sector. The company can charge more to their customers. Over the past year, EMA has gradually climbed from $55 to $64 a share and given a little back in late April and May. However, its PE stands at nearly 27x, slightly lower than 2021’s 34.93x but far more than 15.5x in 2020. Read 3 dividend stocks to fight inflation for our full analysis.

The dividend is the attraction here. They have a track record of raising that. They have a leveraged balance sheet, like utilities do, so rising rates will raise their debt service costs. but inflation will allow Emera to charge more to customers. There's usually a lag between inflation and rate increases, though. The dividend is solid. A good stock for an RRSP.
