What are Wall Street analysts saying about Public Service Enterprise Group stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Public Service Enterprise Group stock:
- 1. med analysts commented, "PEGI’s portfolio showed steady performance as 3Q:18 results modestly outperformed Street expectations. The company continues to have a solid portfolio of assets in its ROFO list which we believe can support growth over the next couple of years. With a dividend yield of ~9%, we continue to believe PEGI is significantly undervalued. We believe its underwriting practices are in line with industry best practices and its wind resource modelling capabilities are among the industry leaders. While some investors might look for PEGI to grow dividends, we believe management is prudent to deploy cash elsewhere until shares trade in line with assets that carry a similar risk profile showing ~5% returns." (11/5/2018)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Public Service Enterprise's share price has outperformed the broader industry over a year, buoyed by its consistent capital-investment plans on account of its stable liquidity position. Currently, the company expects to spend in the range of $13-$15 billion on its energy infrastructure during 2018-2020. Apart from focusing on transmission and distribution infrastructure, the company is also expanding its renewable assets. The company has a solid portfolio of regulated and non-regulated utility assets that offer stable earnings and significant long-term growth potential. However any inability to comply with various regulations and obtain fair and timely rate relief could have an adverse impact on its future earnings and growth. Environmental issues like restrictions on carbon dioxide emissions and other pollutants produced by its fossil units, might increase compliance-related costs. There are also concerns over the huge capital investments." (3/20/2018)
