Warnings

The company pays out 2747% of its profits as dividends. That leaves little cushion — the dividend could be cut if business slows down.
Dividend-based valuation: $5.56 (above our primary estimate by 3274%). Large gaps may signal the dividend doesn't reflect full earning power.
Wall Street's average price target is $13.14 (from 15 analysts). Our estimate is 99% below the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

Key Risks

  • Growth DCF inappropriate — terminal value assumptions dominate
  • EV/EBITDA misleading for regulated businesses where capex is mandated
  • Regulatory risk is a fat tail not visible in normal multiples
