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.
He sees the dividend as being sustainable. They can grow their Free Cash Flow per Share 9%, for 2017-2019. The company recently gave guidance they’ll continue to grow their dividend 10% per year, out to 2020. The concern here is the regulatory approval for the Line 3 replacement risk. He thinks that it goes forward. Feels this is a buying opportunity. Dividend yield of 7.8%.
