National Grid: S1 2023/2024 in line with expectations. We reiterate our neutral view

National Grid group's S1 2023/2024 financial numbers at end September 2023 came in weaker than a year ago for the same period. However, this can be explained by positive non-recurring items in 2022/2023, such as property sales and insurance proceeds for fire damage, for instance. National Grid reported an operating profit of £1,985m, down 11% compared with S1 2022/2023. We estimate S1 2023/2024 EBITDA at £3,006m, down from £3,171m a year ago. Indebtedness was up due to higher capital expenditure and dividends. Looking at credit metrics, LTM S1 2023/2024 ratios are a bit weaker but still in lin...

Vermilion Int'l Compass: Global Equity Strategy

Global Pullback Continues; Focus on Defensives In our previous Int'l Compass (March 2) we discussed how the pullback in global equities was in full swing as Europe (EURO STOXX 50, STOXX Europe 50, DAX, etc.) and the UK (FTSE 100) displayed 4.5-month uptrend breaks and were joining the pullback that had already started on the MSCI ACWI. At the time, we expected this pullback in the MSCI ACWI (ACWI-US) to move down to $86-87 at minimum, and potentially $84 (December 2022 low) or $75-77 (the 2022 lows). ACWI-US broke below $86 and is approaching $84. $84 will be an important support level to mon...
