Entergy Q2 Earnings Call Highlights
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
It's Time to Take Profits on These 2 Overbought Energy StocksEntergy NYSE: ETR reported second-quarter adjusted earnings of $1.03 per share and said it remains on track to meet its 2026 adjusted earnings guidance and longer-term outlook through 2030.

Chair and CEO Drew Marsh said the utility’s growth outlook continues to be supported by demand from technology-sector customers, traditional industrial customers and broader economic development across its four-state Gulf South service territory. While technology customers represent the largest contributor to demand growth in Entergy’s five-year plan, Marsh said the company continues to see substantial interest from industrial segments.

Tariff Fatigue? Look to These 3 Stocks for UpsideEntergy’s pipeline includes potential demand of 7 gigawatts to 12 gigawatts from hyperscale data centers, along with 3 gigawatts to 5 gigawatts of interest from traditional industrial customers. Marsh said interest in large-scale projects has continued to increase since the company’s Investor Day, though he noted that much of the newest activity remains at the indication-of-interest stage rather than fully developed proposals.

Data Center Growth and Customer Protections Management emphasized its “Fair Share Plus” pledge, under which data center customers are expected to pay their full cost to be served as well as an appropriate share of fixed system costs. Marsh said agreements signed so far are expected to produce $7 billion in customer bill benefits.

These 3 Stocks Look to Power AI Data Centers With Natural GasMarsh pointed to Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry’s executive order, signed in late June, as support for this approach. The order requires new data centers seeking state sales-tax exemptions to demonstrate customer protections, grid-resilience and reliability investments, meaningful community benefits and transparency. Marsh said the state cited Meta’s investment in Richland Parish as an example meeting those standards.

During the question-and-answer session, Marsh said data center development continues to receive strong support in Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas, though he acknowledged that concerns have arisen in some communities. New Orleans currently has a moratorium on data centers, he said, and Entergy expects to work with the city to address its concerns and seek to lift the restriction.

In Mississippi, Marsh said AWS already has a significant investment and AVAIO is also considering an investment. He added that Entergy is seeing interest from additional potential customers but did not provide specific details. Asked about reports that Meta could expand substantially in Louisiana, Marsh said he could not comment on Meta’s specific plans but said existing customers have expressed interest in expanding beyond their current commitments.

Resilience and Reliability Investments Entergy said two minor tropical storms affected its service area during the first half of the year, but restoration costs were nominal and did not require special cost recovery. Marsh said the company’s year-round preparedness efforts include training, grid investments, inventory management, vegetation management and proactive maintenance.

In Louisiana, Entergy has begun a St. Bernard Parish project under its phase I accelerated resilience program. The work includes replacing or reinforcing about 640 distribution and transmission poles with equipment designed to withstand winds of up to 150 miles per hour.

The company also said its self-healing network program, which began installations in 2021, now includes more than 400 networks serving over 500,000 customers. According to Marsh, the program has avoided more than 700,000 customer interruptions and an estimated 80 million outage minutes since its launch.

Entergy Louisiana plans to file in the third quarter for a smaller intermediate resilience program, called phase I-A, intended to bridge the current program and a future phase while maintaining workforce continuity and managing customer affordability. In addition, Louisiana implemented a rider in May for enhanced vegetation-management spending above the 2025 baseline level.

Entergy Texas closed on a $200 million Texas Energy Fund grant in June, bringing its accelerated resilience plan to $337 million. Marsh said such investments are intended to strengthen storm readiness, harden the electric system and support faster restoration after severe weather.

Financial Outlook and Capital Plan CFO Kimberly Fontan said second-quarter adjusted earnings were slightly below the prior-year period because weather was closer to normal, compared with warmer weather in 2025. Excluding weather, retail sales grew, driven by 10% industrial sales growth as new and expanding projects increased operations.

Fontan said earnings also benefited from customer investments and related regulatory actions, net of higher depreciation, taxes other than income taxes and financing costs. Other factors included higher operations and maintenance expense, higher interest expense to the parent company and a higher share count following the settlement of equity forwards.

The company reaffirmed its 2026 adjusted EPS guidance and outlook through 2030. Fontan said Entergy expects third-quarter operations and maintenance expense to be about $0.05 to $0.10 higher than in the year-earlier quarter, largely reflecting expenses recovered through riders and consideration related to the sale of its local distribution company business last year. Assuming normal weather, she said most of the year-over-year earnings increase is expected in the fourth quarter.

Entergy’s equity plan remains unchanged from Investor Day. The company completed a $2.175 billion equity-forward offering in early May, with about 60% of its five-year equity plan contracted through 2028. On June 22, Entergy settled 8.7 million shares of equity forwards for net proceeds of $672 million, which Fontan said will support the investment plan and credit profile.

Regulatory, Generation and Transmission Developments Entergy Texas updated its distribution cost recovery factor and received approval for its first capacity cost recovery rider. Entergy Arkansas implemented new rates for its Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider and filed a historical netting adjustment that reflects a customer rate reduction, partially offsetting its base-rate case impact. Entergy Mississippi’s annual formula rate plan filing was approved with no rate change.

Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans filed annual formula rate plan updates and requested extensions of their existing plans. Marsh said Entergy expects new rates in those jurisdictions to take effect in September, while adding that the company has a history of formula-rate-plan extensions in Louisiana.

On generation, Marsh said Entergy is continuing discussions with state officials and other parties regarding possible new nuclear development, including efforts to manage risks for customers and operating-company balance sheets. He said the company has made progress but does not yet have a timeline for an announcement, emphasizing that any project must be customer-led.

Entergy also continues to pursue its proposed acquisition of the Cottonwood generating plant. Marsh described the facility as the most economic option for serving expected growth from steel mills, LNG facilities and petrochemical customers in Louisiana, compared with building a new plant that may not be available until early next decade. The company is working with stakeholders on ways to mitigate near-term customer bill impacts.

Finally, management said Entergy is building more than 1,000 miles of transmission to support new customers and resilience needs. Fontan said the company has about 7.5 gigawatts of power-island equipment under contract or exclusivity arrangements, supporting the lower end of its 10-gigawatt to 17-gigawatt opportunity range.

Entergy Q2 Earnings Beat Estimates, Sales Improve Year Over Year
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Key Takeaways Entergy posted Q2 EPS above estimates as revenues rose on regulatory actions and stronger retail demand.ETR saw industrial sales jump 9.9%, driven by data center, primary metals and chlor-alkali customers.Entergy reaffirmed 2026 adjusted EPS guidance of $4.25-$4.45 and maintained outlook through 2030. Entergy Corporation (ETR - Free Report) reported second-quarter 2026 earnings of $1.03 per share, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 94 cents by 9.6%. However, the bottom line decreased 1.9% from the year-ago quarter’s figure of $1.05.

ETR’s Total RevenuesRevenues rose 5.9% year over year to $3.52 billion but missed the consensus mark of $3.53 billion by 0.08%. Results benefited from regulatory actions, construction-related returns and higher retail demand. Industrial sales volume jumped 9.9%.

Entergy’s Segmental PerformanceThe Utility business generated earnings of $626 million, up from $599 million in the prior-year quarter. Earnings were $1.34 per share in both periods, as growth in total income was offset by a higher diluted share count.

The Parent & Other segment reported a loss of $143 million, wider than the $131 million loss in the prior-year quarter. The loss per share was 31 cents compared with 29 cents a year ago, primarily due to higher interest expense.

Entergy's Retail Sales Gain on Industrial DemandTotal retail electricity sales increased 4.1% year over year to 33,725 gigawatt-hours (GWh). On a weather-adjusted basis, retail sales grew 5.7%, highlighting underlying demand growth across Entergy’s service territories.

Industrial volume climbed to 17,164 GWh from 15,620 GWh. The increase reflected higher sales to data center, primary metals and chlor-alkali customers. Weather-adjusted residential demand rose 2.8%, while commercial sales increased 0.3%.

ETR Faces Higher Costs and Financing PressureUtility other operation and maintenance expenses reduced earnings by 8 cents per share. The decline reflected higher power delivery costs, including increased vegetation maintenance spending, along with higher compensation and benefit costs tied to health care claims and prescription drug rebate timing.

Utility interest expense lowered earnings by 11 cents per share due to higher debt balances, a higher average interest rate and carrying costs on customer advances.

Depreciation and amortization also pressured results as Entergy placed more utility assets into service. The company cited higher federal regulatory depreciation rates at Entergy Arkansas and Entergy Louisiana, along with increased nuclear depreciation rates in Louisiana.

Entergy’s Financial HighlightsAs of June 30, 2026, Entergy had cash and cash equivalents of $3.85 billion compared with $1.93 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

Long-term debt totaled $31.55 billion compared with $27.9 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

Second-quarter operating cash flow increased to $1.89 billion from $1.26 billion a year earlier. The improvement reflected higher customer advance receipts, stronger utility collections and lower fuel and purchased-power payments. Vendor payment timing and higher interest payments partly offset these benefits.

Entergy Reaffirms Its Earnings OutlookEntergy has reaffirmed its 2026 adjusted earnings guidance of $4.25-$4.45 per share. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2026 earnings is pinned at $4.40 per share, which is higher than the company’s guided range.

ETR also maintained its longer-term adjusted earnings guidance. Entergy expects $4.90-$5.20 per share in 2027, $5.55-$5.85 in 2028, $6.25-$6.55 in 2029 and $7.05-$7.35 in 2030. Management continues to target adjusted earnings growth of more than 8% annually through 2030.

ETR's Zacks RankETR currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

Entergy (ETR) Q2 Earnings Top Estimates
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Entergy (ETR - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.03 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.94 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.05 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +9.57%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this power company would post earnings of $0.89 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.86, delivering a surprise of -3.37%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.

Entergy, which belongs to the Zacks Utility - Electric Power industry, posted revenues of $3.52 billion for the quarter ended June 2026, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.08%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $3.33 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Entergy shares have added about 21.5% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 8.5%.

What's Next for Entergy?While Entergy has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Entergy was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $1.75 on $4.13 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $4.40 on $14.27 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Utility - Electric Power is currently in the bottom 32% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

Another stock from the same industry, Dominion Energy (D - Free Report) , has yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on July 31.

This energy company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.73 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -2.7%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 3.8% higher over the last 30 days to the current level.

Dominion Energy's revenues are expected to be $4.06 billion, up 6.6% from the year-ago quarter.

Consolidated results

For second quarter 2026, the company reported earnings of $483 million, or $1.03 per share, on an
as-reported and an adjusted basis. This compared to second quarter 2025 earnings of $468 million, or $1.05 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis.

Summary discussions of results by business follow. Additional details, including information on operating cash flow by business, are provided in Appendix A. Appendix B provides a more detailed analysis of earnings per share variances by business.

Business results

Utility

For second quarter 2026, the Utility business reported earnings attributable to Entergy Corporation of $626 million, or $1.34 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis. This compared to second quarter 2025 earnings of $599 million, or $1.34 per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis.

The primary drivers for the quarter's earnings increase included:

the net effect of regulatory actions across several operating companies; return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments; higher retail sales volume; and higher other income (deductions). These drivers were partially offset by higher interest expense, higher O&M, and higher depreciation and amortization.

On a per share basis, second quarter 2026 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding primarily due to the settlement of equity forwards in 2025 and 2026 as well as the dilutive effect of an increase in the stock price on unsettled equity forwards.

Appendix C contains additional details on Utility operating and financial measures.

Parent & Other

For second quarter 2026, Parent & Other reported a loss attributable to Entergy Corporation of $(143 million), or (31) cents per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis. This compared to a second quarter 2025 loss of $(131 million), or (29) cents per share, on an as-reported and an adjusted basis.

The primary driver for the quarter-over-quarter change was higher interest expense.

On a per share basis, second quarter 2026 results reflected higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding (see details in Utility section).

Earnings per share guidance

Entergy affirmed its 2026 adjusted earnings per share guidance range of $4.25 to $4.45. See the earnings call presentation for additional details.

The company has provided 2026 earnings guidance with regard to the non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings per share. This measure excludes from the corresponding GAAP financial measure the effect of adjustments as described in the "Non-GAAP financial measures" section. The company has not provided a reconciliation of such non-GAAP guidance to guidance presented on a GAAP basis because it cannot predict and quantify with a reasonable degree of confidence all of the adjustments that may occur during the period. Potential adjustments include, among other things, certain significant income tax items, certain items recorded as a result of regulatory settlements or decisions, and certain unusual costs or expenses.

Entergy has provided quantitative reconciliations within this news release of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Entergy reports earnings using the non-GAAP measure of adjusted earnings, which excludes the effect of certain "adjustments". Adjustments are unusual or non-recurring items or events or other items or events that management believes do not reflect the ongoing business of Entergy, such as significant income tax items, certain items recorded as a result of regulatory settlements or decisions, and certain unusual costs or expenses. In addition to reporting GAAP earnings on a per share basis, Entergy reports its adjusted earnings on a per share basis. These per share measures represent the applicable earnings amount divided by the diluted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share for, among other things, financial planning and analysis; reporting financial results to the board of directors, employees, owners, and analysts; and internal evaluation of financial performance. Entergy believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in evaluating the ongoing results of Entergy's business, comparing period to period results, and comparing Entergy's financial performance to the financial performance of other companies in the utility sector.

Other non-GAAP measures, including adjusted ROE, adjusted ROE excluding affiliate preferred, FFO to adjusted debt, gross liquidity, net liquidity, adjusted Parent debt to total adjusted debt, adjusted debt to adjusted capitalization, and adjusted net debt to adjusted net capitalization are measures Entergy uses internally for management and board of directors discussions and to gauge the overall strength of its business. Entergy believes the above data provides useful information to investors in evaluating Entergy's ongoing financial results and flexibility and assists investors in comparing Entergy's credit and liquidity to the credit and liquidity of others in the utility sector. These metrics are defined in Appendix E.

These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of Entergy's operations that, when viewed with Entergy's GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Entergy's business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be used to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Investors are strongly encouraged to review Entergy's consolidated financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Although certain of these measures are intended to assist investors in comparing Entergy's performance to other companies in the utility sector, non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized; therefore, it might not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Per share amounts are calculated by dividing the corresponding earnings (loss) by the diluted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. 

See Appendix B for detailed earnings variance analysis.

Appendix A-2 and Appendix A-3 detail adjustments by business. Adjustments are included in as-reported earnings consistent with GAAP but are excluded from adjusted earnings. As a result, adjusted earnings is considered a non-GAAP measure.

Second quarter 2026 OCF increased primarily due to higher receipts of advance payments related to customer agreements, higher collections from Utility customers, and lower fuel and purchased power payments. These increases were partially offset by the timing of payments to vendors and higher interest payments.

The second quarter and year-to-date earnings increases reflected the effect of rate actions including: E-AR's FRP, E-AR's Generating Arkansas Jobs Act Rider, E-LA's FRP (including FRP riders), E-LA's RPCR, E-MS's FRP interim facilities rate adjustment, and E-TX's DCRF. 2026 results included higher revenue related to the amortization of certain customer advances designed to provide a return on CWIP for certain utility plant investments, which is recognized as the related costs are incurred. The increases also reflected higher electric volume, including the effects of weather, as well as second quarter 2025 MISO capacity costs at E-TX prior to the implementation of a new capacity cost rider, which was effective June 2026. The increases were partially offset by the absence of revenues and gas purchase for resale from the natural gas LDC businesses that were sold in July 2025. Changes in regulatory provisions for decommissioning items was also a driver (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are offset in other line items and are largely earnings neutral). The year-to-date increase also included the effects of E-MS's grid modernization rider.

(f)

The second quarter earnings decrease from higher Utility other O&M was primarily due to an increase in power delivery expenses driven by higher vegetation maintenance costs, as well as higher compensation and benefits costs resulting from higher healthcare claims activity and the timing of the recognition of prescription drug rebates. The second quarter decrease was partially offset by lower bad debt expense. The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher Utility other O&M was primarily due to an increase in power delivery expenses driven by higher vegetation maintenance costs, a higher scope of work performed in 2026 as compared to 2025, and increased labor costs. The year-to-date decrease also reflected higher compensation and benefits, primarily due to a revision to estimated incentive-based compensation expense in 2025. The year-to-date decrease was partially offset by higher nuclear insurance refunds, lower gas operation expenses resulting from the sale of natural gas LDC businesses, and decreases in loss provisions and bad debt expense.

(g)

The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility depreciation and amortization were primarily due to higher plant in service. The decreases also reflected higher FERC jurisdictional depreciation rates at E-AR and
E -LA effective Jan. 2026, and an increase in E-LA's nuclear depreciation rates effective Sept. 2025. 

(h)

The second quarter and year-to-date earnings increases from higher Utility other income (deductions) included changes in nuclear decommissioning trust returns, including portfolio rebalancing in 2026 (based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are offset in other line items and are largely earnings neutral). The increases also reflected higher amortization of tax gross ups on customer advances, including customer advances for construction as well as higher external interest income. The increases were partially offset by a true-up of E-LA's MISO cost recovery mechanism.

(i)

The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Utility interest expense were primarily due to higher debt balances, a higher average interest rate, and higher carrying costs on customer advances. The year-to-date decrease also reflected 2026 carrying costs on retained net proceeds from the monetization of nuclear production tax credits. 

(j)

The second quarter and year-to-date earnings decreases from higher Parent & Other interest expense were primarily due to the issuance of $1.3 billion of junior subordinated debentures in Nov. 2025. 

(k)

The second quarter and year-to-date earnings per share decreases from share effect were due to higher diluted average number of common shares outstanding.  The increases in shares outstanding were primarily due to the settlement of equity forwards in Oct. 2025, Feb. 2026, and June 2026 and the dilutive effect of an increase in the stock price on unsettled equity forwards.

(l)

The year-to-date as-reported earnings decrease from higher Parent & Other asset write-offs, impairments, and related charges was due to a first quarter 2026 $(18 million) ($(14 million) after tax) non-cash impairment related to the expected sale of a non-utility business interest in the Independence power plant (considered an adjustment and excluded from adjusted earnings).

(m)

The year-to-date earnings decrease from higher Utility taxes other than income taxes was primarily due to increases in ad valorem taxes resulting from higher assessments and millage rate increases.

The effects of weather were estimated using hourly heating degree days and cooling degree days for the period from various locations and comparing to a "normal" temperature range for each jurisdiction based on 20-year historical data. The models used to estimate weather are updated periodically and are subject to change.

For the quarter, weather-adjusted retail sales increased 5.7 percent. The increase was primarily due to a 9.9 percent increase in industrial volume driven by higher sales to data center, primary metals, and chlor-alkali customers. Residential sales were 2.8 percent higher.

Entergy Gears Up to Report Q2 Earnings: Here's What to Expect
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Key Takeaways Entergy's Q2 sales estimate of $3.54 billion implies year-over-year growth of 6.2%.Higher retail, industrial and data-center demand may have supported Entergy's quarterly results.June storm outages in Louisiana likely increased Entergy's repair and restoration expenses. Entergy Corporation (ETR - Free Report) is scheduled to release its second-quarter 2026 earnings on July 29, before market open. The company delivered a negative earnings surprise of 3.37% in the last reported quarter.

Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.

Factors to Consider Ahead of ETR’s Q2 ResultsMost of Entergy’s service regions experienced warmer-than-normal weather conditions in the second quarter. Such a weather pattern is likely to have boosted electricity demand from its customers for cooling purposes this summer. This might have improved Entergy’s top-line performance.

Higher retail and industrial sales, coupled with rising demand from data centers across its service territories, are likely to have supported its quarterly performance.

However, high winds, flash flooding and lightning in June caused widespread power outages across Louisiana. Although the company’s crews restored power to the majority of impacted customers, the related repair and restoration efforts may have increased operation and maintenance expenses in the to-be-reported quarter.

Q2 Expectations for EntergyThe Zacks Consensus Estimate for sales is pegged at $3.54 billion, which indicates year-over-year growth of 6.2%.

The consensus estimate for earnings per share stands at 96 cents, which implies a year-over-year decline of 8.6%.

What the Zacks Model Unveils for EntergyOur proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for ETR this time. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat, which is not the case here, as you will see below.

Stocks to ConsiderInvestors may consider the following players from the same industry, as these have the right combination of elements to post an earnings beat this reporting cycle.

Ameren Corporation (AEE - Free Report) is scheduled to report its second-quarter 2026 results on July 30, after market close. It has an Earnings ESP of +0.19% and a Zacks Rank of 2 at present.

AEE’s long-term (three to five years) earnings growth rate is 7.68%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings stands at $1.08 per share, which implies a year-over-year increase of 6.9%.

Edison International (EIX - Free Report) is slated to report its second-quarter 2026 results on July 30, after market close. It has an Earnings ESP of +4.66% and a Zacks Rank of 2 at present.

EIX’s long-term earnings growth rate is 2.10%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at $1.02 per share, which suggests a year-over-year rise of 5.2%.

The Southern Company (SO - Free Report) is set to report its second-quarter 2026 results on July 30, before market open. It has an Earnings ESP of +1.16% and a Zacks Rank of 3 at present.

SO’s long-term earnings growth rate is 11.15%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings stands at $1.01 per share, which calls for a year-over-year jump of 11%.

Entergy (ETR) Q2 Earnings Preview: What's in the Cards?
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Wall Street expects flat earnings compared to the year-ago quarter on higher revenues when Entergy (ETR - Free Report) reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. While this widely-known consensus outlook is important in gauging the company's earnings picture, a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates.

The stock might move higher if these key numbers top expectations in the upcoming earnings report, which is expected to be released on July 29. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.

While management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call will mostly determine the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations, it's worth having a handicapping insight into the odds of a positive EPS surprise.

Zacks Consensus EstimateThis power company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.05 per share in its upcoming report, which represents no change from the year-ago quarter.

Revenues are expected to be $3.56 billion, up 6.9% from the year-ago quarter.

Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 1.01% higher over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.

Investors should keep in mind that the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts may not always get reflected in the aggregate change.

Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise

Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. Our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) -- has this insight at its core.

The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.

Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.

A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.

Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).

How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for Entergy?For Entergy, the Most Accurate Estimate is lower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bearish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of -9.77%.

On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #3.

So, this combination makes it difficult to conclusively predict that Entergy will beat the consensus EPS estimate.

Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?Analysts often consider to what extent a company has been able to match consensus estimates in the past while calculating their estimates for its future earnings. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.

For the last reported quarter, it was expected that Entergy would post earnings of $0.89 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.86, delivering a surprise of -3.37%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates two times.

Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.

That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported.

Entergy doesn't appear a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.

Expected Results of an Industry PlayerFirstEnergy (FE - Free Report) , another stock in the Zacks Utility - Electric Power industry, is expected to report earnings per share of $0.54 for the quarter ended June 2026. This estimate points to a year-over-year change of +3.9%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to be $3.62 billion, up 7.2% from the year-ago quarter.

The consensus EPS estimate for FirstEnergy has been revised 0.7% higher over the last 30 days to the current level. However, a lower Most Accurate Estimate has resulted in an Earnings ESP of -11.66%.

This Earnings ESP, combined with its Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), makes it difficult to conclusively predict that FirstEnergy will beat the consensus EPS estimate. Over the last four quarters, the company surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times.

Filing date: April 29, 2026GAAP EPS was $0.83, which is below the estimated EPS of $0.85.Adjusted EPS was $0.86, which is above the estimated EPS of $0.85.Consolidated as-reported earnings were $385 million; adjusted earnings were $399 million.Utility segment earnings were $540 million; Parent & Other posted an adjusted loss of $141 million.Weather-adjusted retail sales increased 6.0%. Industrial volume rose 14.9%; residential fell 3.1%; commercial declined 0.5%.Operating cash flow improved, supported by higher customer collections and advance payments.Headwinds included higher interest expense, higher depreciation and amortization, and share dilution.On April 29, 2026, Entergy Corp ETR released its 8-K filing detailing first quarter 2026 results. The company reported earnings per share of $0.83 on a GAAP basis and $0.86 on an adjusted basis, compared with $0.82 a year ago on both bases. Entergy is a holding company with five regulated vertically integrated utilities that generate and distribute electricity to 3 million customers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. It operates 27 gigawatts of rate-regulated owned and leased generation capacity. Entergy was the second-largest nuclear owner in the U.S. before beginning to retire and sell its Northeast plants in 2014, and it sold two small gas utilities in Louisiana in 2025.

Quarterly performance versus expectations GAAP EPS was $0.83, which is below the estimated EPS of $0.85. Adjusted EPS was $0.86, which is above the estimated EPS of $0.85. Consolidated as-reported earnings were $385 million, up from $361 million last year. Adjusted earnings were $399 million versus $361 million in the prior-year quarter.

“It’s shaping up to be another exciting year,” said Drew Marsh, Entergy Chair and Chief Executive Officer. “We announced another major hyperscale agreement in Louisiana that includes an additional estimated $2 billion of savings for retail customers consistent with our Fair Share Plus pledge. The fundamentals of our company have never been stronger, and we continue to work diligently to deliver real value to our stakeholders.”Weather was a modest headwind in the quarter. The estimated weather impact on EPS was a negative $0.02 this year compared with a positive $0.05 last year.

Segment results and key drivers The Utility segment reported earnings of $540 million, or $1.17 per share, on both a GAAP and adjusted basis, up from $490 million, or $1.11 per share, last year. The increase was primarily driven by the net effect of regulatory actions across operating companies and returns on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments. These positives were partially offset by higher interest expense and higher depreciation and amortization.

Parent & Other recorded a GAAP loss of $(155) million, or $(0.34) per share, and an adjusted loss of $(141) million, or $(0.31) per share. Results included a non-cash impairment charge of $(18) million pre-tax (approximately $(14) million after tax) related to the expected sale of a non-utility business interest in the Independence power plant. Higher Parent & Other interest expense, including from $1.3 billion of junior subordinated debentures issued in November 2025, also weighed on results. Diluted average shares increased to 463 million from 441 million, reflecting settlements of equity forwards in 2025 and 2026 and the dilutive effect of a higher stock price on unsettled forwards.

Operational and regulatory updates Industrial demand growth remained a standout. Weather-adjusted retail sales rose 6.0% year over year, led by a 14.9% increase in industrial volume tied to data centers, primary metals, and transportation. Residential sales declined 3.1%, and commercial sales fell 0.5% on a weather-adjusted basis.

Entergy reported several regulatory and project milestones: approval of an update to E-TX’s TCRF rate by the PUCT; a GCRR filing by E-TX to place OCAPS investment in rates; APSC approval of E-AR’s 600 MW Arkansas Cypress Solar plus 350 MW of storage; E-LA’s application under the LPSC Lightning Initiative tied to a 20-year electric service agreement with Evest LLC (a Meta subsidiary); E-MS’s annual formula rate plan filing; E-AR’s base rate case and Generating Arkansas Jobs Act rider filings; and Mississippi legislation enabling securitization to finance Winter Storm Fern restoration costs.

Cash flow and financial context Operating cash flow increased primarily due to higher receipts of advance payments related to customer agreements, higher collections from Utility customers, and lower interest paid. These were partially offset by higher fuel and purchased power payments and the timing of vendor payments. From an earnings perspective, higher interest expense across the Utility and Parent & Other—driven by higher debt balances and interest rates—pressured results, while higher depreciation and amortization reflected growth in plant in service and higher depreciation rates, including at nuclear facilities.

Management also noted changes in nuclear decommissioning trust returns and portfolio rebalancing in the quarter. Based on regulatory treatment, decommissioning-related variances are largely earnings neutral due to offsets elsewhere in the income statement.

Key Q1 metrics ($ in millions except per-share) Q1 2026 Q1 2025 Change GAAP EPS 0.83 0.82 +0.01 Adjusted EPS 0.86 0.82 +0.04 Consolidated GAAP earnings 385 361 +24 Consolidated adjusted earnings 399 361 +38 Utility earnings 540 490 +50 Parent & Other earnings (GAAP) (155) (129) (26) Adjustments (after-tax) (14) 0 (14) Diluted average shares (millions) 463 441 +22 Estimated weather impact on EPS (0.02) 0.05 (0.07)Weather-adjusted retail sales change Q1 2026 vs. Q1 2025 Industrial +14.9% Residential -3.1% Commercial -0.5% Total retail +6.0%Why the results matter and key risks For regulated utilities, earnings growth typically follows regulatory outcomes and the pace of investment added to rate base. Entergy’s quarter benefited from constructive regulatory actions across jurisdictions and returns on construction work in progress, highlighting progress on the company’s investment program. Robust industrial load growth—particularly from data centers—supported volume and underscores the strategic importance of modern generation, transmission, and grid investments.

At the same time, several challenges could pressure near-term returns. Higher interest expense from larger debt balances and higher rates reduces earnings and cash flow coverage. Rising depreciation and amortization from growing plant in service are a normal byproduct of capex but can be a headwind absent timely recovery. Share dilution from equity forward settlements lowered per-share results. Weather variability and the absence of revenues from gas LDCs sold in 2025 were additional drags. As with any regulated utility, the timing and outcomes of rate cases, riders, and formula rate plans remain critical to maintaining credit quality and funding capacity.

GuruFocus Valuation Check Based on GuruFocus proprietary metrics, Entergy Corp ETR appears overvalued relative to its GF Value. The GF Value is $61.45, while the current price is $113.16. The current price is 84.1% above the GF Value, indicating an overvaluation signal.

Entergy’s GF Score is 75/100, which is considered above average and suggests a favorable overall profile for long-term compounding relative to peers. The Profitability Rank of 7/10 and Growth Rank of 6/10 indicate solid operating efficiency and a reasonable growth runway for a regulated utility. However, the Financial Strength score of 4/10 points to balance sheet and coverage considerations that investors should monitor, especially given the sector’s capital intensity. Predictability is 1 star, implying more variability in financial results than highly predictable utilities. The Moat Score of 6/10 reflects competitive advantages typical of regulated monopolies within their service territories.

Insiders sold approximately $6.2 million worth of shares in the last three months, with no reported insider buying. Net insider selling can be a cautionary signal, particularly when valuation screens as overvalued. For a deeper dive, visit the Entergy Corp stock page on GuruFocus.

Entergy (ETR) Q1 Earnings Miss Estimates
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Entergy (ETR - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.86 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.89 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.82 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -3.22%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this power company would post earnings of $0.51 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.51, delivering no surprise.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.

Entergy, which belongs to the Zacks Utility - Electric Power industry, posted revenues of $3.19 billion for the quarter ended March 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6.08%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $2.85 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Entergy shares have added about 22.4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 4.3%.

What's Next for Entergy?While Entergy has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Entergy was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $1.07 on $3.53 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $4.40 on $13.83 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Utility - Electric Power is currently in the top 37% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

Southern Co. (SO - Free Report) , another stock in the same industry, has yet to report results for the quarter ended March 2026. The results are expected to be released on April 30.

This power company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.21 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -1.6%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 3.2% lower over the last 30 days to the current level.

Southern Co.'s revenues are expected to be $8.12 billion, up 4.4% from the year-ago quarter.

ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Key Takeaways ETR Q1 EPS of 86 cents missed estimates, though earnings rose 4.9% year over year.Entergy revenues jumped 12% to $3.19B, driven by strong industrial demand growth.ETR faced higher interest, depreciation and non-fuel costs, pressuring per-share results. Entergy Corporation (ETR - Free Report) reported first-quarter 2026 earnings of 86 cents per share, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 89 cents by 3.2%. However, the bottom line increased 4.9% from the year-ago quarter’s figure of 82 cents.

ETR’s Total RevenuesRevenues climbed 12% year over year to $3.19 billion and topped the consensus mark of $3.01 billion by 6.1%.

Operationally, demand remained firm. Weather-adjusted retail sales increased 6.0%, led by a 14.9% jump in industrial volume, reflecting higher sales to data center, primary metals and transportation customers.

Entergy’s Segmental PerformanceETR’s Utility business delivered $1.17 per share in earnings, up from $1.11 in the prior-year quarter, supported by the net effect of regulatory actions across operating companies and return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments.

Parent & Other remained a drag. The segment posted an adjusted loss of 31 cents per share compared with a 29-cent loss a year ago, with higher interest expense cited as a key headwind. Results also included an $18 million pre-tax non-cash impairment charge related to the expected sale of a non-utility business interest in the Independence power plant, which was excluded from adjusted earnings.

Highlights of ETR’s Q1 ReleaseDespite the revenue upside and higher adjusted earnings, Entergy’s quarter fell short of expectations as financing and non-fuel costs weighed on per-share results. Interest expense increased year over year, reflecting higher debt balances and rising interest rates, and the company also cited higher depreciation and amortization tied to higher plant in service and rate-related changes.

Total retail sales rose 4.5% year over year and weather-adjusted growth was stronger at 6.0%, as industrial demand more than offset softer residential and commercial usage.

Entergy’s Financial HighlightsAs of March 31, 2026, Entergy had cash and cash equivalents of $3.57 billion compared with $1.93 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

Long-term debt totaled $31.15 billion compared with $27.9 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

Entergy’s cash generation strengthened in the quarter. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $829 million, up from $536 million a year ago.

ETR Affirms 2026 View, Raises Longer-Term OutlooksETR reaffirmed 2026 adjusted earnings guidance of $4.25-$4.45 per share. The company also updated longer-term targets, lifting its adjusted earnings outlooks to $4.90-$5.20 for 2027, $5.55-$5.85 for 2028 and $6.25-$6.55 for 2029. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2026 earnings is pinned at $4.40 per share, which is higher than the company’s guided range.

The company highlighted very strong first-quarter retail sales growth fueled by roughly 15% industrial growth and noted it is updating its capital plan to serve rising customer demand, while also pointing to a strong credit metric outlook.

Entergy Corp (ETR) Stock Down 3.4% but Still Overvalued -- GF Score: 71/100
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
On May 15, 2026, Entergy Corp ETR shares fell 3.4% to a current price of $109.46. The stock has experienced a 52-week range from $80.11 to $118.45, highlighting a notable volatility in its price performance.

GF Value™ verdict: Entergy Corp is currently priced at $109.46, which is 38.6% above the GF Value™ estimate of $78.95.GF Score™: Entergy Corp has a GF Score™ of 71/100, indicating an above-average ranking.Most notable signal: Insiders have sold $2.2 million worth of stock in the last three months, with no insider buying activity reported. Is ETR Overvalued or Undervalued? The current price of Entergy Corp at $109.46 stands significantly above its GF Value™ estimate of $78.95, suggesting that the stock is overvalued by approximately 38.6%. This overvaluation signals potential risk for investors, as the market price does not provide a sufficient margin of safety. The GF Valuation label categorizes Entergy Corp as "Significantly Overvalued," reinforcing that caution is warranted in the current valuation landscape. GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates.

With a significant gap between the market price and intrinsic value, investors may want to consider the implications of this overvaluation. The risks associated with buying into an overvalued stock can include exposure to market corrections or declines in share prices, especially if the company's performance does not meet investor expectations.

How Does ETR's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 27.9x 18.6x Forward P/E 24.9x - The current P/E (TTM) of Entergy Corp at 27.9x is significantly above its 5-year median P/E of 18.6x, suggesting that the stock is trading at a premium compared to its historical valuation. The forward P/E of 24.9x also indicates that the stock is expected to maintain a higher valuation than it has historically held. This P/E analysis aligns with the GF Value™ verdict, which indicates that Entergy Corp is overvalued based on historical performance metrics.

What Does ETR's GF Score™ Tell Us? Metric Rating GF Score™ 71 Financial Strength 4/10 Profitability 7/10 Growth 6/10 Valuation 5/10 Momentum 3/10 The GF Score™ of 71/100 indicates that Entergy Corp exhibits an above-average potential for long-term returns. Notably, the strongest area is in profitability, where it scores 7/10, reflecting good profit margins and operational efficiency. However, the weakest aspect is financial strength, with a score of just 4/10, which may raise concerns regarding the company's ability to withstand financial downturns. The momentum rank of 3/10 also suggests that the stock has not been performing strongly in recent trading, which could further influence investor sentiment.

What Are Insiders Doing with ETR Stock? In the last three months, insiders at Entergy Corp have sold a total of $2.2 million worth of stock, with no buying activity reported during this period. This pattern of insider selling may suggest a lack of confidence among company executives regarding the current stock price or future performance. Generally, insider selling can be interpreted as a bearish signal, prompting further scrutiny of the company's prospects.

What This Means for Investors Based on the analysis of GF Value™, Entergy Corp ETR appears to be overvalued at its current price of $109.46, which is significantly higher than the intrinsic value estimate of $78.95. Investors should exercise caution given the overvaluation and the signals from insider activity, as well as the company’s lower financial strength score.

Futurum Group Enters Definitive Agreement to Acquire Aptiviti Inc., Parent of Enterprise Technology Research (ETR), Bringing Wall Street's Premier Predictive Data into its Futurum Intelligence Platform™
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Futurum Group, a leading technology advisory, research, and intelligence firm, today announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire Aptiviti, Inc., the parent company of Enterprise Technology Research (ETR). Upon closing, the strategic acquisition will merge ETR’s highly coveted, predictive quantitative data engine—long considered a gold standard by institutional investors—with Futurum Group’s deep market expertise, media properties, and global intelligence platform.

The world’s top institutional investors have relied on ETR’s data to predict market-moving shifts in technology spending before they show up in earnings. We now bridge the gap between Silicon Valley and Wall Street and vice versa.

Share For over a decade, ETR has been the silent engine behind some of Wall Street’s most successful technology investors. Through its proprietary Technology Spending Intentions Survey (TSIS), ETR captures forward-looking capital allocation data from a vetted community of nearly 10,000 enterprise technology leaders representing over $2 trillion in spending power.

Following the robust adoption of the Futurum Intelligence Platform™ in 2025, users and decision makers find unmatched real time data capabilities covering 11 tech practice areas. Customers who’ve been consuming dynamic intelligence based on over 6M existing data points will now gain a leading and powerful set of indicators to forecast vendor performance across their ecosystem, track sales preference signals across verticals, and ultimately enable them to generate alpha in a volatile tech market.

"ETR was founded on the belief that data, not opinion, should drive the most consequential technology decisions. I joined this company as one of its first employees in 2012, and returning as CEO in 2024 gave me a front-row seat to just how far that conviction had taken us. The result is a community of nearly 10,000 technology leaders, more than 15 years of proprietary data, and a methodology that the world's top investors and technology companies rely on to stay ahead of the market,” said Brad LaScolea, CEO of ETR. “Combining that foundation with Futurum Group’s analyst depth, reach, and intelligence platform creates something genuinely differentiated and long overdue for the market."

"For years, the world’s top institutional investors have relied on ETR’s raw data to predict market-moving shifts in technology spending before they show up in earnings," said Daniel Newman, CEO of Futurum Group. "Through this acquisition, we are bridging the gap between Silicon Valley and Wall Street and vice versa. We are proud to offer the financial markets an ultimate edge while further enhancing the power of intelligence that enterprises are accustomed to having with Futurum Group: predictive, quantitative alpha generated by ETR with the strategic, qualitative context of our global analyst team. I’m personally proud to have Futurum Group innovate and spearhead the reimagined mandate firms have in the AI era, leading at the forefront to offer this level of unified market intelligence."

Futurum Intelligence’s latest proprietary AI offerings unveiled this year are eye opening to customers, allowing them to prompt AI to answer questions grounded in Futurum Group’s research and buyer data such as vendor comparisons, brief your board, and pressure-test strategy — in minutes, not weeks.

The combined platform includes the following benefits and capabilities:

Institutional-Grade Predictive Power: ETR’s standardized, longitudinal TSIS survey captures spending intentions across hundreds of publicly traded and private technology vendors. Decision makers use this proprietary data as an unparalleled, forward-looking lens into which companies are gaining or losing market share, compared to those benefiting from or impacted by secular and/or macro-level spending headwinds. Deep Penetration in Financial Services: ETR's established clientele includes a who's-who of tier-one hedge funds, mutual funds, family offices, private equity, and venture capital firms. This acquisition formally solidifies Futurum’s footprint on Wall Street, expanding its ecosystem far beyond traditional technology vendors and enterprise C-suites to directly serve the financial markets. The Ultimate Due Diligence Engine: By integrating ETR's data with Futurum Group’s existing platform, decision makers now have a comprehensive tool for robust market positioning, buying and adoption trajectories, M&A due diligence, competitive benchmarking, idea generation, and investment thesis validation. Contextualizing the Quant: While users have historically used ETR to answer what is happening with technology budgets, Futurum Group’s 11 practice areas and expert analysts provide the critical why. Clients now receive the quantitative signal and the qualitative context in a single, frictionless engagement. To learn more and request your access, visit Futurum Group and Futurum Intelligence

Why Is Entergy (ETR) Down 7% Since Last Earnings Report?
ETR Entergy
FMP Stock News
Original source text
It has been about a month since the last earnings report for Entergy (ETR - Free Report) . Shares have lost about 7% in that time frame, underperforming the S&P 500.

But investors have to be wondering, will the recent negative trend continue leading up to its next earnings release, or is Entergy due for a breakout? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at the most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important catalysts.

Industrial Demand Surge & Retail Sales Growth Drive ETR's Q1 Earnings

Entergy Corporation reported first-quarter 2026 earnings of 86 cents per share, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 89 cents by 3.2%. However, the bottom line increased 4.9% from the year-ago quarter’s figure of 82 cents.

ETR’s Total RevenuesRevenues climbed 12% year over year to $3.19 billion and topped the consensus mark of $3.01 billion by 6.1%.

Operationally, demand remained firm. Weather-adjusted retail sales increased 6.0%, led by a 14.9% jump in industrial volume, reflecting higher sales to data center, primary metals and transportation customers.

Entergy’s Segmental PerformanceETR’s Utility business delivered $1.17 per share in earnings, up from $1.11 in the prior-year quarter, supported by the net effect of regulatory actions across operating companies and return on construction work in progress for certain utility plant investments.

Parent & Other remained a drag. The segment posted an adjusted loss of 31 cents per share compared with a 29-cent loss a year ago, with higher interest expense cited as a key headwind. Results also included an $18 million pre-tax non-cash impairment charge related to the expected sale of a non-utility business interest in the Independence power plant, which was excluded from adjusted earnings.

Highlights of ETR’s Q1 ReleaseDespite the revenue upside and higher adjusted earnings, Entergy’s quarter fell short of expectations as financing and non-fuel costs weighed on per-share results. Interest expense increased year over year, reflecting higher debt balances and rising interest rates, and the company also cited higher depreciation and amortization tied to higher plant in service and rate-related changes.

Total retail sales rose 4.5% year over year and weather-adjusted growth was stronger at 6.0%, as industrial demand more than offset softer residential and commercial usage.

Entergy’s Financial HighlightsAs of March 31, 2026, Entergy had cash and cash equivalents of $3.57 billion compared with $1.93 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

Long-term debt totaled $31.15 billion compared with $27.9 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

Entergy’s cash generation strengthened in the quarter. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $829 million, up from $536 million a year ago.

ETR Affirms 2026 View, Raises Longer-Term OutlooksETR reaffirmed 2026 adjusted earnings guidance of $4.25-$4.45 per share. The company also updated longer-term targets, lifting its adjusted earnings outlooks to $4.90-$5.20 for 2027, $5.55-$5.85 for 2028 and $6.25-$6.55 for 2029. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2026 earnings is pinned at $4.40 per share, which is higher than the company’s guided range.

The company highlighted very strong first-quarter retail sales growth fueled by roughly 15% industrial growth and noted it is updating its capital plan to serve rising customer demand, while also pointing to a strong credit metric outlook.

How Have Estimates Been Moving Since Then?It turns out, estimates review have trended downward during the past month.

VGM ScoresCurrently, Entergy has a average Growth Score of C, a grade with the same score on the momentum front. Following the exact same course, the stock was allocated a grade of C on the value side, putting it in the middle 20% for value investors.

Overall, the stock has an aggregate VGM Score of C. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in.

OutlookEstimates have been broadly trending downward for the stock, and the magnitude of this revision looks promising. Notably, Entergy has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). We expect an in-line return from the stock in the next few months.

Performance of an Industry PlayerEntergy is part of the Zacks Utility - Electric Power industry. Over the past month, Edison International (EIX - Free Report) , a stock from the same industry, has gained 1.1%. The company reported its results for the quarter ended March 2026 more than a month ago.

Edison International reported revenues of $4.1 billion in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +7.7%. EPS of $1.42 for the same period compares with $1.37 a year ago.

Edison International is expected to post earnings of $1.05 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +8.3%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate has changed +6.7%.

The overall direction and magnitude of estimate revisions translate into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for Edison International. Also, the stock has a VGM Score of C.

GF Value™ verdict: Current price of $104.97 compared to GF Value™ of $78.99 indicates a 32.9% overvaluation.GF Score™: 76/100 (Above Average), suggesting solid fundamentals.Most notable signal: No insider transactions in the last 3 months, indicating a lack of confidence from insiders. Is ETR Overvalued or Undervalued? With a current price of $104.97 and a GF Value™ estimate of $78.99, Entergy Corp appears significantly overvalued, with a 32.9% margin of safety. The GF Valuation label indicates that the stock is "Significantly Overvalued," posing potential risks for investors who may be considering entering or holding onto the stock. The overvaluation suggests that the market may have priced in optimistic growth expectations or a premium for the company's stable utility business, which might not be justified by its underlying financials.

GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. Investors should exercise caution as the stock's current price reflects a significant premium over its estimated intrinsic value, increasing the risk of potential price corrections if the company's performance does not meet high expectations.

What Are Insiders Doing with ETR Stock? There have been no insider transactions reported in the last three months for Entergy Corp, which may suggest a lack of confidence among company executives or board members regarding the stock's current valuation.

With a significant premium over its estimated intrinsic value and a concerning P/E ratio compared to historical averages, the stock may pose risks for potential investors.

Entergy CEO pushes back on fears that AI data centers will drive up electricity bills

Entergy CEO Drew Marsh said the rapid buildout of data centers doesn't have to be a burden for residential communities.

"Data centers really want to be good neighbors," Marsh said on CNBC's "Mad Money" on Tuesday. "They have reputations that they want to protect, and they want to be part of the community."

The surge in AI-related power demand has sparked concerns among policymakers and homeowners that residential customers could end up footing the bill for data centers. Marsh said Entergy's approach is designed to avoid that outcome by requiring data center operators to cover the costs of serving their facilities while also contributing to expenses that would otherwise be shared across the utility's customer base.

The electric utility company — which serves customers across Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi and Texas — has adopted what it calls a "Fair Share Plus" framework for large data center customers.

"The Fair Share part says that they are going to pay all of the incremental infrastructure costs during the life of their contract as needed to support them," Marsh said.

Marsh added that the framework goes beyond requiring data centers operators to simply pay for the infrastructure they use.

"The plus part is that they are also covering some of the fixed costs," Marsh said. "That means overhead costs and storm costs that our existing customers would have already been paying."

At Entergy's investor day Tuesday, Marsh said those provisions are expected to generate roughly $7 billion in savings for existing customers over the 15 to 20-year life of the contracts.

Entergy: Industrial Load Growth Can Drive A Major EPS Reset
ETR Entergy

Original source text
I am rating Entergy Corporation as a buy with a $148 price target, implying a 34.5% upside from the current price of $110. The biggest growth drivers are the Meta-linked Louisiana data center investment, broader industrial load growth, new generation, transmission expansion, renewables, storage, and distribution capex. I estimate these growth drivers can take adjusted EPS from $3.91 in 2025 to about $7.40 by 2030. This is close to management's 2029 guidance of $7.05 to $7.35.
