General analysis — not personal advice.
Hold: earnings and the dividend increase support the thesis, but valuation appears fairly full and regulatory outcomes (e.g., Z-factor) plus financing costs can cap near-term upside.

Market sentiment
Sentiment is modestly improving on stronger Q1 execution and a dividend increase, but is tempered by the adverse regulatory ruling (Z-factor) and ongoing interest-rate/financing cost pressure.
Why this signal
Hold: earnings and the dividend increase support the thesis, but valuation appears fairly full and regulatory outcomes (e.g., Z-factor) plus financing costs can cap near-term upside. Also wait for clearer market read-through on the CEO transition and the incremental debt financing.
Maintain the position; consider adding only on a meaningful pullback or if upcoming regulatory/capex project outcomes turn more favorable.
