Bulls Say

  • PAH will resume dividend growth once currency headwinds subside.

  • Inflation remains relatively high, lifting the underlying value of the regulated asset leading to higher allowed returns.

  • Acquisition opportunities have brightened and the group can resume adding assets to boost growth.

Bears Say

  • Geopolitical uncertainties may lead to increased scrutiny of its asset acquisition and sales by the Chinese government and other countries, making it difficult to complete some deals.

  • High exposure to overseas assets brings foreign exchange risk, while acquisition risk is meaningful, given that competition for utility assets is high.

  • The majority of PAH's investment are regulated utility assets with limited organic growth. A lack of dividend growth means PAH is less attractive to investors.
