Unitil: Solid Growth, But Current Valuation Is A Bit High

  • Unitil Corporation, a small utility serving New England, has shown consistent net income growth, outperforming larger peers like Eversource Energy. Despite its small size and high debt levels, Unitil offers a 3.17% dividend yield and has a solid historical total return. The company plans to invest $980 million in infrastructure from 2025-2029, aiming for a 6.5%-8.5% rate base growth, but this may dilute current equity holders.
