AGL – Income Generation

AGL Energy is a under Algo Engine buy conditions and is a current holding in our ASX 100 model portfolio.

AGL announced FY19 underlying NPAT of $1,040m and lowered FY20 guidance to be A$780-860m. The forecast is below already adjusted market estimates and we’ve seen the share price trade lower as a result.

With the stock at $19 there is value supported by a 5% dividend yield. This trade is an example where investors should look to add a covered call option to enhance the yield to 10% per annum.
