Enbridge Income Fund HoldingsENF.TOBUYJul 29, 2016Stock 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.
When Enbridge (ENB-T) has a mature project, they push it over to this, and then it becomes an income vehicle. Pays a very high dividend. In terms of visibility, they put more projects on so it is trading at a very reasonable multiple. They can easily pay the dividend, which is close to 6% now. They expect 10% plus increases per year going into 2019. If you take the current price and go into 2019, that is going to be a yield of close to 8%. A solid underlying company, but there will be some volatility.
