STMicroelectronics, ENGIE ink long-term energy supply deal

UBS analyst Wanda Serwinowska maintained a Buy rating on Engie SA (0LD0 – Research Report) today and set a price target of €17.50. The company's sh...

UBS Sticks to Their Buy Rating for Engie SA (0LD0)

Utility companies are positioned for long-term growth through clean energy investments as the world shifts towards renewable energy and infrastructure modernization. With rising demand, investors might consider stable utility stocks like Duke Energy (DUK), Engie (ENGIY), and Fortis (FTS), which offer high dividends. Read on... Utilities are experiencing rising demand from AI infrastructure, data centers, and EV charging, driving steady revenue growth. The sector also benefits from the shift to cleaner energy, which supports long-term growth potential. For investors seeking stability, utility stocks like Duke Energy Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/DUK/">DUK</a>), Engie SA (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/ENGIY/">ENGIY</a>), and Fortis Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/FTS/">FTS</a>) offer reliable dividends and promising dividend growth.
The utility sector is particularly promising and stable, supported by rising electricity demand from industrial growth and electric vehicles this year. Utilities play an essential role in sustaining critical tech sectors, providing steady demand and a defensive position against economic fluctuations. As a result, in the U.S., electricity demand is projected to grow by 3% in 2024 and by <a href="https://www.iea.org/reports/electricity-mid-year-update-july-2024/executive-summary">1.9% in 2025</a>.
As utilities transition from fossil fuels, they can achieve more stable costs and improved profitability by avoiding price volatility. Investments in nuclear, renewable energy, and methane reduction position utilities as leaders in clean, stable energy, while gas liquefaction supports the transition to lower-emission fuels. The global utilities market is projected to grow at <a href="https://www.researchandmarkets.com/report/utilities">6.8% annually</a>, reaching $8.31 trillion by 2027.
On top of it, anticipated interest rate cuts are likely to ease capital costs, benefiting utility companies reliant on substantial infrastructure spending. With promising local regulatory changes, the sector's outlook remains strong. Investors' interest in utility stocks is evident from the SPDR Select Sector Fund – Utilities' (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/XLU/">XLU</a>) 33.9% returns over the past year.
Considering these conducive trends, let's analyze the fundamental aspects of the three utility picks.
Duke Energy Corporation (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/DUK/">DUK</a>)
DUK and its subsidiaries operate as an energy company in the United States. It operates through two segments: Electric Utilities and Infrastructure (EU&amp;I), and Gas Utilities and Infrastructure (GU&amp;I).
On October 7, 2024, DUK declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.05 per share on its common stock and $359.38 per share on its Series A preferred stock, both payable on December 16, 2024, to shareholders of record by November 15, 2024.
In terms of the trailing-12-month <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/g/gross_profit_margin.asp">gross profit margin</a>, DUK's 49.86% is 11.3% higher than the 44.79% industry average. Likewise, its 42.39% trailing-12-month Capex / Sales is 25.5% higher than the 33.77% industry average. Furthermore, the stock's 47.63% trailing-12-month EBITDA margin is 30.2% higher than the 36.58% industry average.
DUK has paid dividends for 17 consecutive years. Its annual dividend is $4.18, which translates to a yield of 3.63% at the current share price. Its four-year average dividend yield is 4.01%. Moreover, the company's dividend payouts have increased at a CAGR of 2% over the past three years.
DUK's total operating revenues for the second quarter that ended June 30, 2024, increased 9% year-over-year to $7.17 billion. Its operating income rose 19.4% over the year-ago value to $1.71 billion. Also, net earnings and adjusted EPS stood at $921 million and $1.18, reflecting increases of 29% and 29.7% year-over-year, respectively.
Street expects DUK's EPS for the quarter ending December 31, 2024, to increase 7.7% year-over-year to $1.63. Its revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, is expected to grow 1.3% year-over-year to $8.10 billion. It surpassed the Street EPS estimates in three of the trailing four quarters.
Over the past year, the stock has gained 29.7% to close the last trading session at $115.27. Its 60-month beta is 0.46.
DUK's <a href="https://stocknews.com/powr-ratings/">POWR Ratings</a> reflect strong prospects. The POWR Ratings assess stocks by 118 different factors, each with its own weighting.
DUK is ranked #13 out of 59 stocks in the <a href="https://stocknews.com/category/utilities-domestic/">Utilities – Domestic</a> industry.
