What to look at in Utilities
Regulated businesses with slow growth but reliable dividends. They are bonds on steroids — look at debt, rates, and payout consistency.
- Regulated ROE (8-12%) — Utilities have an "allowed" ROE set by the regulator. Out of range = anomaly
- 5y EPS growth — Stable utilities grow EPS 4-6% annually — more = anomaly, less = dead
- 10y dividend growth — Top utilities ("Dividend Aristocrats") raise dividend 25+ consecutive years
- Net debt / EBITDA — Utilities use a lot of debt — >6x with high rates is an alarm
- Interest coverage — EBIT / interest. If it drops <3x during rate hikes, the dividend is in danger
- Payout Ratio — In utilities it is normally high (60-80%), but >90% indicates stress
