National Fuel Gas Company (NFG) is acquiring CenterPoint Energy’s Ohio utility, expected to double its regulated rate base and improve income stability. Despite challenges in the sector and recent underperformance, NFG trades at a low forward price-to-earnings ratio and projects 8.5% EPS growth by fiscal year 2026. The acquisition will increase leverage, but management plans to maintain investment grade credit ratings and target 7–10% annual EPS growth, supported by the company's vertical integration and a long history of dividend increases.
