PremiumStock Analysis & Ideas
RBC Picks 2 Utility Stocks Powering the Data Center RevolutionBulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Financial StrategyAES is selling a 30% stake in its OH utility business. Valuation looks attractive, the transaction is aligned with AES's strategy of prioritizing US renewables capex.
Growth PotentialAES remains well positioned to serve data center renewables demand, where it still sees robust interest and upward pressure to returns.
Risk Profile ImprovementAES' overall risk profile looks set to improve meaningfully and, by 2027, earnings are expected to be realized largely in the US, mostly from contracted or regulated sources, and without exposure to coal.
Bears Say
Financial PerformanceAES missed 3Q Adj EBITDA on the back of severe drought in Colombia, outages in Mexico, and lower margins at the Energy Infra SBU.
Market ConfidenceThe market is cautious about the ability to execute, and consistently growing EPS has been a challenge for AES in the past.
Stock PerformanceThe market is cautious about the ability to execute, and the stock underperformance is a sign that the market needs more convincing on the story.
