We confirm our EUR 7.5 fair value estimate after Enel released first-quarter results above FactSet consensus at the EBITDA level thanks to strong performance of renewables and supply businesses. It confirmed its 2024 guidance. With current P/E and dividend yield of 9.8 and 5.6%, respectively, the shares are undervalued.
The disposal plan and exit of noncore countries could help to reduce the holding discount.
Regulation in Spain is very hostile to utilities.
