Review of Northland Power Inc.

MAR 12, 2024 - NPI holds a significant position in the production of renewable energy and utilities. The company’s business model generates high and consistent cash flows through contracted revenues and pays out a high percentage of these through dividends. We think that NPI should continue to perform with the industry, while the realization of the benefits of growth projects is a few years away. We expect some degree of pressure to be put on the company financially as it has to balance its high debt load with status as a high dividend payer. We are maintaining our rating of a ‘B’ for NPI due to the offsetting factors of industry tailwinds and likely increased expenses.
