PPL News
Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Financial StrengthPPL’s robust 16-18% FFO/debt profile and zero equity issuance needs through 2027 highlight a premier, differentiated balance sheet.
Growth PotentialPPL's execution enables the company to lift growth over time, underpinning potential upside from its current in-line multiple for an attractive GARP setup.
Investment OpportunitiesThe company highlighted sizable incremental opportunities from generation investment and transmission opportunities, which could lead to future growth.
Bears Say
Future Emission RegulationsWith CCGT costs ~$1,500/kW and concerns that a future administration may introduce stringent emission rules, PPL does not expect to see a building response that would alleviate pricing.
Market ReactionThere was a weak trading reaction to the 3Q24 update despite the earnings meeting expectations.
Renewable Energy AgreementsPPL does not expect any of the six previously approved solar power purchase agreements to move forward, with three already canceled or terminated.
