How this is scored: each factor above is a 0–100 percentile rank against every other stock BeStock covers (or, for Wall Street, against the five-point Strong Buy–Sell scale). The overall grade is the plain average of whichever factors apply to this stock — no factor is weighted more than another. That average maps to a letter: A ≥ 85, B ≥ 70, C ≥ 50, D ≥ 30, otherwise F. Recomputed from the data on this page as prices and filings update — it describes where a stock ranks today, not a forecast, and not a BeStock recommendation to buy or sell.

National Grid: the business
National Grid owns electricity and gas networks in the U.K. and the northeastern U.S.
What tends to move it. Regulatory returns in both countries and its large investment plan to upgrade networks drive the outlook.
Where the case gets weaker. Tougher outcomes in the next regulatory review, in either the U.K. or the northeastern U.S., would lower the allowed returns that earnings are built on, and the large network investment plan means steady access to funding at reasonable cost is needed to keep executing it.
