ONE Gas: Valuation Looks Attractive At First, But This Does Not Tell The Whole Story
Summary ONE Gas is a regulated natural gas utility serving 2.3 million customers in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, with a lower valuation than its peer, Southwest Gas Holdings. Despite a lower price-to-earnings ratio and attractive dividend yield, ONE Gas's stock performance has been disappointing, partially due to its lack of participation in the utility sector rebound. The company's growth is driven by Texas's rapid population growth and substantial capital investments, but share dilution will suppress earnings per share growth compared to peers. While ONE Gas offers a competitive dividend yield and reasonable total return potential, it may not be the best investment opportunity in the natural gas utility sector.
