Bulls Say
Snam has high earnings and dividend visibility as its main businesses earn regulated returns.
Investments in biomethane, hydrogen, and carbon capture and storage better position the company for a faster-than-anticipated energy transition.
The annual review of the weighted average cost of capital parameters prevents a returns squeeze when interest rates rise, most recently seen in the 2024 expected increase in returns.
Bears Say
Investments in the energy transition do not strengthen the company’s moat, especially in biomethane and carbon capture and storage.
Regulatory risk for utilities is historically higher in Italy than in the rest of Europe, as the country faces a structurally high budget deficit and can be tempted to see utilities as cash cows.
Should hydrogen not ramp up and electrification displace gas, Snam’s gas pipelines could become stranded assets in the long run.
