Enbridge (ENB) is recognized as a leading pipeline company in North America, benefiting from a robust infrastructure and serving a significant portion of energy demand, including both crude oil and natural gas. Analysts note its attractive dividend yield, which hovers around 5%, with a potential for growth aligned with the company's cash flow increase of approximately 5% annually. While some experts express concerns about market volatility and the current geopolitical landscape affecting energy markets, many view ENB as a stable investment option, particularly for those seeking dividend income. The company is also seen as a solid long-term hold, with expectations around growth from its LNG operations and ongoing capital projects. Overall, despite mixed valuations at times, the consensus leans towards a positive outlook for its performance amid increasing demand for energy infrastructure.

TOP PICK

Very high dividend yield - ~6.5%.
Year end results very good, with dividend increase. 
Key infrastructure that is very hard to replicate (hard to build new pipelines).
Very cheap valuation at current price.


SELL

It's grown to a size, with the amount of debt it has, that it's hard to see what it's going to be. He used to think of ENB as a houseplant, just clip coupons on it. But it can't grow. Should cancel the dividend and pay down debt.

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

Due to the stability of the demands for their services and the strong barrier to entry in the utility industry, ENB revenue is really resilient across market cycles.
These advantages allow most utility companies to leverage their balance sheet. These are quite common practices in the industry. Interest rates moving up are a risk.
However, as of Q3-2022, the debt structure includes 90% fixed rates; the company is managing this risk quite well.
As ENB matures, growth in dividends also normalizes along with inflation rates, as their pricing adjustment is regulated by authorities.
Its reduced dividend growth guidance is likely part conservatism and part current conditions.
Although, we don’t expect ENB to grow and compound capital at a very high rate, going forward ENB is still attractive as a “bond proxy” for income investors.

TOP PICK

The 6% dividend is safe. Well-run. Their main line is a major pipeline globally. Balance sheet fine. Have a $17 billion backlog of projecs which should increase that dividend in time. Growth lies ahead.

(Analysts’ price target is $58.10)

WEAK BUY

Likes it. They report Friday. Washington's stance on oil and gas hasn't helped stocks like Enbridge. It pays a 6.5% yield, supported by strong cash flow. Natural gas has swung from not enough to too much, high prices to low.

TOP PICK

Not a lot of regulatory noise, for the first time in a while. He's expecting positive news on Maineline tolling. Core pipeline network is going to continue to fund a lot of free cashflow. Infrastructure expertise now has continental reach. Potential for energy funds to flow into Canada and ENB will benefit. He has about a 6% position. Over next 10 years, opportunity for total return of dividend plus capital appreciation is pretty great. Yield is 6.56%.

(Analysts’ price target is $58.10)
WAIT

Very profitable, around market average. Balance sheet a bit stretched, stable revenue. Beautiful yield of 6.5%. Trades at 19x, a bit pricey. Likes it, but prefers TRP today on price.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Currently owns share in the company. Lots of debt but has consistent dividend yield. Regulated business makes it difficult to pass on costs to consumers. Good long term investment.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 16/20, Up 21%) Keep in mind that the total returns for his past picks are based on almost three years. The total return for Enbridge is due to dividends since the actual stock has been flat with only a 1% return over that period of time. Still owns in the income platform

BUY
Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Collapse in oil prices pushed investors away. Payout ratio has sufficient cushion. Margins improving over the years. Upside potential in an economic recovery.
BUY
Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Extended liquidity to $14B; well-equipped. Pipelines well-prepared for return in demand. Risk of low volumes to pipelines.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 14/21, Up 11%) Quiet, but good year in terms of regulatory concerns. ~6% dividend yield is very strong. Project announcements coming which is good for share price (more infrastructure investments). Will continue to own shares.
HOLD
Utilities are interest sensitive, impacting operating costs and inflation. Long-term growth possibilities between 5-7%. Debt coming down. Backlog increasing to 1.3B. Solid company during uncertainty. Pretty good yield of 6.5%.
