What the Analysts think about Severn Trent

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Severn Trent stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Severn Trent exceeded its PR19 environmental targets, including over a 30% reduction in sewage spills, qualifying for customer rebates and regulatory rewards—demonstrating operational outperformance (Reuters).
In July 2024, Severn Trent issued a £350 million 14-year sustainability bond, attracting £1.6 billion in bids (4.5× subscribed), reflecting strong market confidence in its credit profile (Bloomberg).
The board's CPIH-linked dividend policy ensures predictable, inflation-adjusted payouts, with a forecast FY25/26 dividend of 126.02 pence per share, making Severn Trent attractive to income-focused investors (Reuters).
In July 2024, Ofwat expanded its sector-wide sewage probe to include Severn Trent, subjecting the company to further compliance reviews and raising the risk of future enforcement actions (Financial Times).
The Competition and Markets Authority's six-month extension of the PR24 redetermination delays the final decision on price controls, prolonging regulatory uncertainty over Severn Trent's allowed revenues (Bloomberg).
Ofwat approved bill increases below what Severn Trent proposed, granting smaller rises than requested. This restricts Severn Trent's ability to fully pass on higher costs to customers and could put pressure on margins (Reuters).
