RE:Why AQN diluting stock often But borrowing requiires interest payments. Whether borrowing or diluting, what matters is that anything AQN buys be accretive to current shereholders.
Re: Kentucky Power, the rumoured selling price of $2.8B for a rate base of $1.9B represents a 47% premium. And then, to maintain credibility in the green universe, AQN must promptly convert the coal generation to something else -- this represents an immediately liability. It's hard to see how this would be accretive, and if it isn't then it doesn't matter how it was financed.
