Enbridge Income Fund HoldingsENF.TOCOMMENTSep 11, 2015Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Nov 10, 2018. Market Open.
Enbridge wants to buy ENF to simplify their corporate structure. In the States, Enbridge offered a small premium, while in Canada, they offered a premium. He suspects the directors of ENF-T are waiting for a higher premium (or that's what he would do). Pays a higher yield than Enbridge Inc. but lacks the dividend growth potential.
This business has been transformed recently. Enbridge (ENB-T) has dropped down a lot of assets to this income fund. The strategy going forward is that this income fund will be a yielding vehicle, and you will get a little more growth out of Enbridge the parent. It is going to use the equity in this company to fund Enbridge growth. You are looking at a very stable yield, high quality assets, which are very sensitive to commodity prices, but more sensitive to volume. A very conservative yield well covered. If you are looking for solid yield going forward, this is the place to get it. He is looking for better growth on the Enbridge side.
