Enbridge profit rose in the first quarter thanks to strong utilization across its assets.
The Calgary, Alberta-based pipeline-and-energy company on Friday posted net income of 2.26 billion Canadian dollars ($1.62 billion), or C$1.04 a share, up from C$1.42 billion, or C$0.67 a share, in the comparable quarter a year earlier.
Adjusted earnings were C$1.03 a share. According to FactSet, analysts were expecting C$0.96 a share.
Distributed cash flow rose to C$3.78 billion, up from C$3.46 billion a year earlier.
Chief Executive Greg Ebel credits the quarter's performance to strong utilization across its asset base and said this positions the company to meet or exceed financial guidance for the year.
On the tariff front, Ebel doesn't anticipate any issues. "We don't expect tariffs to have a material impact on our current operations or deployment of capital," Ebel said.
