Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Energy MixThe generation mix with a significant portion from low-cost hydro and renewables creates a favorable backdrop for Avista.
Growth OpportunitiesThe potential for large load customer opportunities, particularly from data centers, presents a favorable growth opportunity.
Regulatory DevelopmentsThe Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission approved a higher return on equity of 9.8%, which is an increase from the previously authorized 9.4%.
Bears Say
Earnings GrowthAvista continues to offer below-average earnings per share and dividend per share growth, with success relying on management's ability to close the gap between authorized and earned ROE.
Regulatory ChallengesThe Energy Recovery Mechanism did not receive support for changes, which may limit Avista's ability to adjust electric rates in response to changes in power supply costs.
Valuation ConcernsValuing shares at a -15% discount indicates a perceived lack of value given the modest growth expectations.
