Alliance & Aux Sable Transaction Is Win-Win for Enbridge and Pembina

We think Pembina's acquisition of Enbridge's interests in the Alliance, Aux Sable, and NRGreen assets for about CAD 3.1 billion is a material strategic win for both parties. We consider the valuation paid at about 9 times 2024 EBITDA or 8 times including expected synergies to be reasonable. This breaks down into about 11 times 2024 EBITDA for the Alliance pipeline, and 7 times for the Aux Sable assets. As a result, we do not expect to change our CAD 41 or USD 29 fair value estimates for Pembina, or our CAD 52 and USD 38 fair value estimates for Enbridge. Our narrow moat rating for Enbridge and our no moat rating for Pembina are also unchanged.
