Rapporterad av AI

American Water slås samman med Essential Utilities för att bilda det största offentliga vattenbolaget i USA. Transaktionen beräknas vara slutförd under det första kvartalet 2027.

Det sammanslagna bolaget skulle betjäna en bred kundbas i flera delstater. American Water förväntar sig en långsiktig vinst per aktie och en utdelningstillväxt på 7 till 9 procent årligen efter att affären har slutförts. Synergier och en bredare geografisk närvaro kan stödja en vinsttillväxt över trenden när fusionen väl är genomförd.
