I like that the company is diversified with operations in electric, manufacturing, construction, food services, and health services providing it a wide base for revenue. But 95% of their net income comes from the electric operations. The dividend history is also very attractive given its steady increase from $0.39 in 1975 to $1.19 in 2008. Based on a dividend discount model assuming no appreciation of the underlying stock, the dividends along are worth $24/share.
