Sempra Energy

Sempra’s infrastructure subsidiary agreed to sell about 0.8 million tonnes per year of LNG to Petrobras under a 20-year sales and purchase agreement sourcing from Port Arthur LNG Phase 2. Trains 3 and 4 are expected to begin commercial operations in 2030 and 2031, and the contracted volume represents roughly 6.2% of Phase 2’s planned 13 mtpa capacity, improving visibility for future sales. The agreement does not disclose pricing or margins, so earnings impact remains uncertain; construction costs (about $12bn plus $2bn shared facilities), commissioning risks and Sempra’s reduced ownership stake in the infrastructure unit will determine long‑term returns. » More on finance.yahoo.com

Sempra Energy shares lost about 3.6% in pre-market trading after Mizuho cut its rating from “Outperform” to “Neutral” and lowered the price target from $104 to $84. The move was prompted by the failure of key elements of California’s wildfire reform SB 492, notably the omission of a mechanism to replenish the state wildfire fund, leaving liability risks for subsidiaries such as SDG&E and SoCalGas. Additional price-target cuts by other analysts, industry-wide disappointment and a weak overall market pushed the stock close to its 52-week low. » More on de.investing.com

Sempra has completed the sale of Ecogas México, a natural gas distribution network serving over 600,000 customers in Mexicali, Chihuahua and La Laguna‑Durango, and received about $500 million. The transaction is part of Sempra’s capital recycling program to support a five‑year investment plan of roughly $65 billion, with more than 95% earmarked for regulated utility infrastructure. The sale complements the agreement to sell a 45% stake in Sempra Infrastructure Partners to affiliates of KKR and is intended to spur investments in Texas and California, reduce reliance on equity issuance and support credit quality. » More on de.investing.com
