Live Updates Yesterday

That wraps up our initial coverage of RH’s Q1 results. Thank you for stopping by!

Check out management’s earnings call at 5 PM EST for more updates.

Yesterday

RH raised its fiscal 2026 outlook after reporting first-quarter results that exceeded management’s expectations. The luxury furniture retailer now expects fiscal 2026 revenue growth of 4.5-8.0%, adjusted EBITDA margins of 14.2-16.0%, and adjusted free cash flow of $300-$400 million.

Management identified RH Estates, alongside backlog conversion and new gallery openings, as key factors supporting its expectation for revenue growth to accelerate in the second half of fiscal 2026.

Management said tariff-related sourcing disruptions delayed approximately $45 million of revenue in the quarter, but expects much of that business to be recognized later this year.

Yesterday

RH just reported earnings, with shares initially up about 9% following the report. Here are the key numbers:

Revenue: $800.3 million Adjusted EBITDA: $56.9 million (7.1% margin) Free Cash Flow: $13.3 million Guidance:

FY2026 Revenue Growth: 4.5% to 8.0% FY2026 Adjusted EBITDA Margin: 14.2% to 16.0% FY2026 Adjusted Free Cash Flow: $300 million to $400 million Q2 2026 Revenue Growth: 0.5% to 2.5% Q2 2026 Adjusted EBITDA Margin: 11.5% to 13.0% Quick read:

RH exceeded the high end of management’s expectations in Q1 despite tariff-related sourcing issues that delayed roughly $45 million of revenue.

Management raised its full-year outlook and expects backlog normalization to drive a meaningful revenue acceleration in the second half of 2026.

Investors appear encouraged that RH’s recovery thesis remains intact, with management pointing to backlog reduction, new store openings, and the launch of RH Estates as key growth drivers for the back half of the year.

Yesterday

With RH’s (NYSE:RH | RH Price Prediction) first-quarter results at 4:05 PM ET approaching, here are some key topics analysts will be watching for:

Key Topics Management Must Address Whether the 420 bps international drag is tracking to plan after Paris “exceeded RH New York” traffic. RH Estates rollout across the top 30-40 galleries and the mid-May sourcebook reception. Progress on the $0.5 billion real estate monetization plan. Macro Signals to Weigh Consumer sentiment at 49.8, a fresh 12-month low. Housing starts slipping to 1.47M in April. Red Flags Any softening of the $300M to $400M FCF range, or evasive answers on pending securities probes. Yesterday

With the bar set at -$2.05 non-GAAP EPS, the surprise risk lies in factors beyond the headline beat.

Tariff backorder unwind. Q4 lost ~$30 million in revenue to resourcing. Faster-than-expected resolution as China sourcing moves toward the 2% target could flip the guided -2% to -4% revenue decline. FX exposure. Euro and GBP swings now matter materially with RH Paris live and RH London/Milan launching Spring 2026. Housing inflection. Starts rebounded to 1,465 thousand units in April, the 81.8th percentile historically, challenging Friedman’s “worst in 50 years” framing. Litigation overhang. Investor law firms probing the Q4 miss adds sentiment risk absent from sell-side models. Earnings results are expected at 4:05 PM ET, while the earnings call will be at 5:00 PM ET.

Yesterday

What the Crowd Is Pricing In Polymarket traders are betting heavily on a beat. The active market “Will RH (RH) beat quarterly earnings?” shows a 98.5% implied probability of RH (NYSE:RH) topping the non-GAAP EPS threshold of -$2.05, with 9,614.76 contracts traded. Conviction has surged, with the “Yes” price climbing +48% over the past week and +53% in the last day.

The low bar matters. A negative consensus makes the hurdle easy to clear, even though RH missed in both Q3 and Q4 2025. History suggests the stakes are high: misses have averaged a -12.93% same-day move, while the lone beat delivered +6.93%. Shares trade at $153.23 into the earnings report, down 17% year-to-date.

Yesterday

Luxury home furnishings retailer RH (NYSE:RH) reports Q1 FY2026 results tonight at 4:05 PM ET. With shares at $153.14 and Polymarket pricing a 98.5% probability of beating the -$2.05 non-GAAP EPS bar, here is what to listen for on the 5:00 PM ET call.

Top 5 Analyst Questions How quickly is China sourcing tracking toward the 2% target from 16%? Is the $250M-$350M free cash flow range still intact? RH Paris productivity and RH Milan Spring 2026 readiness? Demand cadence versus the guided 2% to 4% revenue contraction? Path to deleveraging from 4.6x net debt/EBITDA? Key Topics & Buzzwords Listen for “strategic separation,” “climbing the luxury mountain,” and “demand vs. revenue.” Brand extension launch timing, hospitality (Guesthouses, RH One/Two/Three). Red Flags Full-year guide cut, widening negative shareholders’ equity beyond -$110.8 million, or fresh tariff backorder commentary. Yesterday

RH enters earnings under pressure after a difficult year marked by weak housing activity, tariff concerns, and investor skepticism around the company’s spending plans.

The company finished fiscal 2025 with roughly $2.6 billion in debt and net debt running at about 4.0x EBITDA, leaving little room for disappointment. Management has argued that current investments, including the RH Estates strategy, will drive long-term growth, but investors want evidence that the payoff is beginning to materialize.

Tonight’s report will be closely watched for signs that demand is stabilizing, luxury consumers remain engaged, and tariff pressures are easing. If RH can deliver on those fronts, there’s a potential for the recovery narrative to quickly regain momentum.

RH (NYSE: RH) reports first-quarter fiscal 2026 results today, June 11, at 4:05 PM ET. After two straight misses and a stock down 21.49% over the past year, this report carries unusual weight.

Proving the Investment Cycle Is Worth It Last quarter, RH posted adjusted EPS of $1.53, below the $2.20 consensus, and revenue of $842.6 million, below the $873.3 million consensus. Management blamed roughly $30 million in tariff-related backorders and $10 million in weather disruption. The stock dropped 19.5% intraday on the earnings report.

For the quarter ahead, CEO Gary Friedman guided to a revenue decline of 2% to 4% and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 5.5% to 6.5%, which incorporates roughly a 420-basis-point negative margin impact from international pre-opening costs. RH Paris opened on the Champs-Élysées last September, with RH London and RH Milan slated for Spring 2026. Shares have rebounded 15.09% over the past month to $153.50, suggesting some traders see the bar as already low enough. However, shares are up 3% today heading into Q1 earnings.

Consensus Estimates Metric Q1 FY2026 Consensus Full Year FY2026 Guide Adjusted EPS $(2.05) Implied from 14% to 16% EBITDA margin Revenue ~$792M 4% to 8% growth Adjusted Free Cash Flow Not guided $300M to $400M Estates Launch and Europe Will Decide Tonight’s Tone Tonight, I will be watching three things. First, the launch of RH Estates, the brand extension delayed from Fall 2025 to Spring 2026. Friedman told investors it will “become our largest and highest margin brand extension” and premiered at RH Milan during Salone.

Second, Europe. Friedman said Paris traffic in the first six days exceeded RH New York, and RH England demand ran +76% in Q2 and +47% in Q1. Investors will watch whether that comp momentum held through the London and Milan ramp, as international costs are eating into margins right now.

Third, tariffs and sourcing. CFO Jack Preston flagged “some tailwinds from the relatively lower rate that exists under Section 122 today” in the first half. RH has shifted its China sourcing target from 16% to 2% and aims for 52% U.S.-made upholstery. The macro backdrop helps modestly: housing starts hit 1.47 million in April, near the high end of the healthy range.

Polymarket traders are pricing a 98.5% probability of a beat against that loss estimate, signaling the bar may be low.

The furniture retailer said it now expects revenue growth of 4.5% to 8% for the fiscal year, raising the lower end of its prior range of 4% to 8%.

Arhaus Stock Drops to 52-Week Low After Q1 EarningsRH NYSE: RH raised its fiscal 2026 outlook after first-quarter revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin exceeded the high end of its expectations, even as the luxury home furnishings company said tariff-related resourcing kept back orders and special orders elevated.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gary Friedman said first-quarter revenue was $800.3 million and adjusted EBITDA margin was 7.1%. He said results came despite back order and special order balances that were approximately $75 million higher than a year earlier, primarily due to tariff-related resourcing.

MarketBeat Week in Review – 04/27 - 05/01“As a result of our better-than-expected first quarter results, we are raising our outlook for fiscal year 2026,” Friedman said while reading the company’s shareholder letter.

RH Raises Fiscal 2026 Outlook For fiscal 2026, RH now expects:

Revenue growth of 4.5% to 8%. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.2% to 16%. Adjusted free cash flow of $300 million to $400 million. Could RH’s Recent 40% Slide Represent a Buying Opportunity?The company said the full-year outlook includes an approximate 270-basis-point negative impact to adjusted EBITDA margin from pre-opening and start-up costs tied to international expansion.

For the second quarter, RH guided for revenue growth of 0.5% to 2.5% and adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.5% to 13%. That outlook includes an approximate 380-basis-point negative adjusted EBITDA margin impact from pre-opening and start-up costs to support international expansion.

Friedman said the company expects its business to accelerate from roughly flat revenue growth in the first half to about 12% growth in the second half. He identified three elements behind that expected acceleration: backlog reduction contributing 4.5 percentage points, new store growth adding 2.5 percentage points and new concept growth from RH Estates contributing five points.

Chief Financial Officer Jack Preston clarified during the question-and-answer session that the $75 million backlog figure represents back orders and special orders above the company’s normal rate. “This is elevated because of unnatural things happening,” Preston said, citing resourcing and transportation impacts.

RH Estates Takes Center Stage Much of the call focused on RH Estates, a new concept Friedman described as a major step in the company’s effort to build a global luxury brand. Friedman said the concept is intended to bring high-end, trade-only design and craftsmanship to a broader audience through RH’s platform.

Friedman said the company has aggregated brands and ateliers including Dmitriy & Co, Joseph Jeup, Dennis & Leen, Formations, Waterworks and Michael Taylor. He characterized RH Estates as an effort to remove barriers that have historically limited consumer access to certain categories of luxury home design.

“With the launch of RH Estates, we are removing the barriers that have segregated taste from scale,” Friedman said. “We are amplifying the work of the world’s most elite designers, artisans, and manufacturers on our global platform.”

Friedman also outlined new customization capabilities, including RH Bespoke Furniture and RH Couture Upholstery. He said RH Bespoke will allow interior designers and architects to specify dimensions for case goods such as dressers, dining tables, sideboards and cabinets. RH Couture Upholstery will include custom sizing and customer’s own material, or COM, for sofas, sectionals, chairs, ottomans and beds.

In response to a question from Guggenheim analyst Steven Forbes about the addressable market, Friedman said the traditional classic market represents roughly 60% of the luxury home market and that RH is “vastly under-penetrated” in that category. He said the company now views its business around three major aesthetic segments: Estates, Interiors and Modern.

Trade Program Aimed at Designers and Architects RH also plans to introduce an exclusive program for interior designers, architects and trade members. Friedman said the program is designed to compensate professionals for the value they create for consumers and to encourage them to use RH’s platform.

During the call, Friedman said RH already has a large trade business and provides services such as design support, renderings, presentations, delivery and installation assistance. He said the company has not historically offered the same kind of incentive structure to the design trade that some professionals use in their business models.

“Interior designers have a markup model, right? An hourly model. They kind of need both to make the business work,” Friedman said. He added that RH Estates makes this the right time to more directly engage high-end designers because the new assortment is aimed at the top of the market.

When Jefferies analyst Jonathan Matuszewski asked why now was the right time to pursue a loyalty program that compensates trade clients, Friedman said the timing is tied to Estates. “Estates opens up the very top of the market for this brand,” he said.

International Expansion Remains a Major Investment Friedman described RH Paris, Milan and London as key foundational openings for the company’s global luxury ambitions. He said the three markets are important to earning recognition from European, U.K. and global customers.

Asked by Wells Fargo analyst Zach Fadem about the initial response from Milan and expectations for Paris, Milan and London, Friedman said the company is still building brand awareness, customer relationships and design books in Europe. He said London is expected to be an accelerator for the broader international platform.

“London is the accelerator for all of it,” Friedman said. “Because everybody goes to London.” He said London has higher brand awareness for RH than some other international markets, citing expats and customer familiarity with the brand.

Preston said first-quarter pre-opening costs ended up at about 450 basis points of margin impact, compared with prior commentary of 420 basis points. He said the second-quarter guide includes a 380-basis-point impact, while the full-year figure is expected to be 270 basis points.

Margins, Cash Flow and Balance Sheet Executives said RH expects margin leverage as investments peak and sales improve. Friedman said the company is not assuming a recovery in the housing market in its guidance and said he would be surprised if RH did not beat the numbers if the market worsened, absent more severe macroeconomic disruption.

On tariffs, Preston said the free cash flow guidance does not assume any additional tariff refunds. “The refunds started coming, but they’ve been kind of paused,” he said.

On the balance sheet, Morgan Stanley analyst Simeon Gutman asked about RH’s goal of becoming debt-free by 2029. Friedman said debt reduction remains a priority and pointed to planned asset sales of $200 million to $250 million per year over the next two years. He said RH recently completed a transaction related to its Aspen real estate that gave the company 100% control of eight properties, which he said could help monetization efforts.

Preston said free cash flow is expected to build over time and reiterated that making progress on debt reduction remains a focus. Friedman added that as spending declines and sales rise, the company expects asset sales and business performance to support the balance sheet.

Friedman closed the call by thanking RH employees and saying the company is entering “one of the most important times in the history of RH,” driven by new products, international galleries and the company’s broader luxury positioning.

RH RH is experiencing a decline in stock value following its Q1 report, where below-consensus Q2 guidance overshadowed better-than-expected results. The luxury home furnishings retailer posted an adjusted loss of $1.97 per share, with revenue decreasing by 1.7% year-over-year to $800.3 million. For Q2, RH anticipates revenue growth of only 0.5-2.5%, amounting to approximately $904-922 million, which falls short of market expectations. The company did increase the lower end of its FY26 revenue outlook, now forecasting growth of 4.5-8.0%, or around $3.59-3.73 billion, but this projection is contingent on a significant acceleration in the latter half of the year.

Revenue Timing: Q1 revenue was negatively impacted by about $45 million due to high backorder and special order balances, which were approximately $75 million above last year, largely due to tariff-related resourcing. RH expects these balances to stay elevated in Q2 before normalizing by year-end. Second-Half Bridge: Management forecasts revenue growth to shift from roughly flat in the first half to around 12% in the second half. This growth includes 4.5 points from backlog reduction, 2.5 points from new store openings, and 5.0 points from new concept growth, primarily RH Estates. Margin Framework: Margins faced pressure, with the adjusted EBITDA margin dropping to 7.1% from 13.1% last year due to gross margin compression and expense deleverage. RH projects a Q2 adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.5-13.0% and an FY26 adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.2-16.0%, indicating a significant recovery from Q1 levels, although international pre-opening and startup costs continue to be a burden. Platform Expansion: RH is focused on establishing a global luxury brand, with Paris, Milan, and London serving as key galleries for international visibility. Initiatives like RH Estates, RH Bespoke Furniture, and RH Couture Upholstery are part of this strategy to enter more customized, designer-led categories. Despite RH's Q1 results exceeding expectations, investor attention is shifting to the weaker Q2 guidance and the ambitious second-half growth implied by the FY26 outlook. The company suggests that some immediate challenges stem from timing issues related to elevated backorder and special order balances. However, transitioning from flat first-half revenue growth to approximately 12% in the second half remains a significant challenge, given the ongoing difficulties in the housing market and uneven demand for luxury home furnishings. While RH anticipates revenue growth in Q2, the 0.5-2.5% growth forecast is considerably below expectations, and the adjusted EBITDA margin still needs substantial improvement from Q1 levels to align with the full-year framework. Nevertheless, RH's long-term vision surrounding international galleries, RH Estates, Bespoke Furniture, and Couture Upholstery remains appealing, as it aims to create a broader luxury platform that extends beyond the housing cycle. However, with Q2 guidance disappointing, international startup costs impacting profitability, and a recovery that heavily relies on second-half performance, investor concerns regarding the timing and sustainability of the rebound persist.

Advance work at the Bailey site prepared the property for a significant industrial investment by USA Rare Earth
Collaboration underscores the power of ready-to-go sites; adds to the $3.5 billion of capital investments and more than 5,200 new jobs the Site Readiness Program has helped bring to South Carolina, /PRNewswire/ -- USA Rare Earth's announcement this week of a major investment and new jobs in Cherokee County highlights the impact of Duke Energy's Site Readiness Program, which helped prepare the Bailey Industrial Site for major economic development. Through upfront due diligence, infrastructure planning and site marketing, the program made Bailey more competitive for companies looking to move quickly on a new project.

Since 2005, the program has helped attract significant investment across South Carolina, and Bailey is the latest example. After completing the site-readiness process, the Cherokee County property was better positioned to compete for transformative projects – culminating in USA Rare Earth's announcement that it will build a facility there, bringing a $1.2 billion investment and 490 new jobs in one of the county's biggest economic wins.

Our view: "Duke Energy is proud to help bring this transformative project to Cherokee County and strengthen America's domestic rare earth supply chain," said Tim Pearson, Duke Energy South Carolina president. "The Bailey site is a strong example of how our Site Readiness Program helps communities compete for game-changing projects. By working with state and local partners to prepare the site in advance – from diligence and coordination to energy planning – we helped make this property more appealing for a company ready to invest, create jobs and move quickly. As we continue to prioritize reliable power at the lowest possible cost for our customers, we stand ready to use this program and every tool in our toolbox to help South Carolina win more opportunities like this."

Zoom out: The Duke Energy Site Readiness Program includes detailed site assessments by partners in site selection and engineering to identify opportunities, address challenges and improve a property's competitiveness before a prospect is on the table. That proactive work can help communities shorten timelines, reduce uncertainty and better position sites like Bailey for major industrial announcements.

Under the program, Duke Energy works with local economic development organizations on the overall strategy to improve and add to South Carolina's site inventory.Large-scale economic development projects play a key role in keeping costs as low as possible by helping pay for fixed infrastructure costs that benefit all customers through capacity expansion and improvements to reliability.By the numbers: For 22 consecutive years, Duke Energy's economic development efforts have been recognized by Site Selection magazine in the publication's annual list of "Top Utilities in Economic Development."

Since 2005, projects that have located on Site Readiness Program sites have announced $3.5 billion of capital investments and more than 5,200 new jobs for South Carolina.Duke Energy has evaluated 102 sites in South Carolina, and 26 companies have selected sites that have gone through the program.Examples of successful program sites include EA Sween in Greenwood County, Thermo King in Greenville County, Fancy Pokket in Lancaster County, Cyclic Materials in Chesterfield County and most recently USA Rare Earth in Cherokee County.The Site Readiness Program is a key example of how Duke Energy helps create jobs and bring more value to South Carolina. In fact, in 2025, Duke Energy helped recruit $3.4 billion in capital investment and 2,000 new jobs throughout the state.

More sites set for success: In addition to the Cherokee County site, two other prime locations for development recently went through the Site Readiness Program:

The Anderson Area Airport Industrial Park is a 226-acre property adjacent to the airport. Owned by Anderson County, it contains 175 buildable acres and is well positioned from both a utility and accessibility standpoint. The Carolina's Centre Industrial Park in Chesterfield County is a 296-acre site with frontage along Highway 9 between the towns of Chesterfield and Cheraw. The property contains a 52,000 square foot spec building, water and heavy electrical infrastructure.What they're saying

Ken Moon, Cherokee County Development Board executive director: "Duke Energy's Site Readiness Program was instrumental in USA Rare Earth's decision to choose the Bailey site for a major expansion and new facility in South Carolina. The program's preparation helped make the site competitive and ready to meet the company's needs, creating a major economic win for Cherokee County. Duke Energy continues to be a strong partner in helping position our community for growth."Tommy Dunn, Anderson County Council chairman: "Duke Energy remains an essential partner in advancing economic development in Anderson County, and the Site Readiness Program is a powerful example of that collaboration. By proactively identifying and preparing sites past, present and future, the Site Readiness Program investment has enhanced our competitiveness and strengthened our ability to attract transformative projects."Libby Lear, Chesterfield County Economic Development director: "I cannot emphasize enough the importance of site readiness and how significantly it impacts community growth. Duke Energy's Site Readiness Program is instrumental in attracting businesses, creating jobs, and fostering economic development in Chesterfield County. By preparing sites for potential investment, we are not only enhancing the appeal of our area but also paving the way for sustainable growth and prosperity."Duke Energy

SOURCE Duke Energy

Duke Energy Corporation is well positioned for AI-driven power demand, leveraging its nuclear capabilities and geographic advantages in fast-growing states. I maintain a Buy rating on DUK after its recent dip to $120, supported by strong Q1 results and long-term growth prospects. DUK's strategy to partner with tech companies on capital-intensive nuclear projects is prudent, given elevated industry-wide debt-servicing costs.

It has been about a month since the last earnings report for Duke Energy (DUK - Free Report) . Shares have lost about 3.6% 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 Duke Energy due for a breakout? Before we dive into how investors and analysts have reacted as of late, let's take a quick look at its most recent earnings report in order to get a better handle on the important catalysts.

Duke Energy Q1 Earnings Beat Estimates, Revenues Increase Y/Y

Duke Energy Corporation's first-quarter 2026 earnings of $1.93 per share surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.79 by 7.6%. The bottom line increased 9.7% from $1.76 reported in the year-ago quarter.

DUK’s RevenuesTotal operating revenues were $9.18 billion, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $8.4 billion by 9%. The top line increased 11.3% from $8.25 billion in the year-ago period.

Highlights of DUK’s Earnings ReleaseOperating expenses amounted to $6.84 billion, up 15.6% year over year. The increase was primarily driven by higher expenses for fuel used in electric generation and purchased power, cost of natural gas, operation, maintenance and other and depreciation and amortization.

The operating income totaled $2.73 billion compared with $2.34 billion in the year-ago quarter.

Interest expenses rose to $968 million from $889 million in the first quarter of 2025.

The average number of customers in its Electric Utilities and Infrastructure increased 1.4% year over year.

Total electric sales volume for the reported quarter went up 0.3% year over year to 65,454 gigawatt-hours.

DUK’s Segmental HighlightsElectric Utilities & Infrastructure: This segment’s adjusted earnings totaled $1.4 billion, up from $1.28 billion in the first quarter of 2025. This was primarily driven by the recovery of infrastructure investments aimed at reliably serving customers across its expanding jurisdictions, along with favorable weather conditions. These positives were partially offset by higher O&M expenses, including storm-related costs, as well as increased depreciation tied to a growing asset base.

Gas Utilities & Infrastructure: Adjusted earnings from this segment amounted to $361 million compared with $349 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Other: The segment includes corporate interest expenses not allocated to other business units, resulting from Duke Energy’s captive insurance company and other investments. On an adjusted basis, this segment incurred a loss of $263 million compared with a loss of $260 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Financial Condition of DUKAs of March 31, 2026, Duke Energy had cash & cash equivalents of $2.14 billion compared with $0.245 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

As of March 31, 2026, the long-term debt was $80.48 billion compared with $80.11 billion as of Dec. 31, 2025.

During the first three months of 2026, the company generated net cash from operating activities of $1.51 billion compared with $2.18 billion in the same period last year.

2026 Guidance by DUKDuke Energy expects to generate 2026 adjusted EPS in the range of $6.55-$6.80. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 earnings is pegged at $6.70, which is higher than the midpoint of the company’s projected range.

The company expects its long-term adjusted EPS growth of 5-7% through 2030.

How Have Estimates Been Moving Since Then?In the past month, investors have witnessed a flat trend in estimates revision.

VGM ScoresCurrently, Duke Energy has a poor Growth Score of F, however its Momentum Score is doing a bit better with a D. Charting a somewhat similar path, the stock has 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 D. If you aren't focused on one strategy, this score is the one you should be interested in.

Outlook Duke Energy has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). We expect an above average return from the stock in the next few months.

Our view: "Duke Energy is proud to work alongside first responders when severe weather hits, and a critical part of emergency response is preparation," said Tim Pearson, Duke Energy's South Carolina president. "We strive to help fill the gaps in emergency preparedness our communities have, and hope that these grants can help emergency managers, first responders and community leaders better prepare to protect and help our communities."

Proven success:

In the fifth year of the program, past grant recipients were able to help fill the gaps in emergency preparedness for their communities. Read more about the impact.

In Dorchester County, HERO funding supported the launch of a Cut & Toss Team to clear debris and restore emergency access during severe weather. When Winter Storm Fern brought down limbs across key routes, the team rapidly cleared priority roadways – reducing delays and easing pressure on fire, rescue and public works crews. In Anderson County, Hurricane Helene in 2024 created dozens of hazardous road closures at once, quickly stretching emergency resources. Using a $15,000 HERO grant, the county purchased a fully stocked traffic‑control trailer with cones, barriers and portable speed bumps. The centralized trailer allows crews to quickly mobilize and secure multiple sites at the same time. The investment proved valuable during Winter Storm Fern in 2026, when crews quickly blocked unsafe routes and warned motorists as conditions worsened. In Oconee County, HERO funding supported the addition of a second shelter trailer, allowing officials to operate two warming shelters simultaneously – including one equipped for residents with special medical needs. Positive response:

Dr. Mandy Gattis, Grants and Special Projects Director, South Carolina EMS Association: "We are thankful to the Duke Energy Foundation for their commitment to strengthening emergency preparedness across South Carolina. This grant will ensure that EMS agencies, hospitals, and emergency management teams have the reliable communication tools they need to coordinate and respond effectively during disasters." Katherine Jones, York County Parks Director: "York County is committed to safety and this grant from Duke Energy will allow us to upgrade our weather-related safety measures in and around our parks, which will impact over 300,000 visitors annually at seven different locations. With these tools in place, we'll be able to monitor severe weather more closely and respond more quickly helping keep visitors informed and safe." Robbie Swofford, Emergency Management Coordinator, Spartanburg County: "Our Duke Energy Foundation HERO grant award will provide Spartanburg County Emergency Management the opportunity to partner with fire departments across the county to conduct Weather Radio and Fire Alarm Blitzes in their communities. Thanks to this funding, we will be able to fully address the unmet needs of nine fire departments and partially address the unmet needs of two additional departments. These blitzes will help place critical preparedness and life-safety resources directly into the hands of residents who need them most." Rob Lybrand, Director, Sumter County Emergency Management: "Sumter County is honored to be among this year's grant recipients. Duke Energy Foundation funding will enhance roadway safety and accessibility during winter weather events by supporting roadway clearing and salt-spreading operations, improving travel conditions and strengthening the county's emergency response capabilities."

U.S. electricity consumption is reaching record highs, forcing utility providers to rethink long-term capacity plans. Duke Energy (DUK), which operates the largest nuclear fleet of any regulated utility in the country, is actively exploring strategic hyperscaler partnerships to offset the massive financial risks of building new nuclear reactors. The move underscores a broader sector trend where utilities must aggressively add grid capacity while remaining risk-averse to protect both shareholders and ratepayers.

Key Takeaways Exponential growth in data centers is pushing U.S. electricity consumption to record highs, forcing utilities to significantly expand grid capacity. Duke Energy is pursuing cost-sharing partnerships with big tech hyperscalers to mitigate the capital risks of building new nuclear plants. Duke’s existing nuclear fleet achieved a record 97% capacity factor in 2025, generating $600 million in customer value via federal tax credits. Utilities Look to Hyperscaler Partnerships to De-Risk Nuclear Buildout Duke Energy CEO Harry Sideris confirmed in a recent Reuters NEXT Newsmaker interview that the company has discussed adding more nuclear energy to its fleet to meet unprecedented tech demand. This focus on scaling infrastructure while also mitigating financial risks is reflected in the company’s regulatory approach.

Duke recently submitted an early site permit application for potential new nuclear development in North Carolina, alongside its comprehensive 2025 Carolinas Resource Plan focused on modernizing grid infrastructure.

Notably, Duke reported an all-time high systemwide capacity factor of nearly 97% across its 11 Carolina units in 2025. Furthermore, this performance provided carbon-free electricity to over eight million homes and yielded roughly $600 million in value for customers via federal tax credits. By shifting a portion of new capital expenditure risk onto hyperscalers, regulated utilities aim to preserve stable shareholder returns during a historic demand cycle.

Duke is a constituent in the VettaFi Nuclear Renaissance Index (NUKZX), which tracks the full nuclear ecosystem, including advanced reactors, utilities, construction and services, as well as fuel providers. Investors can access the index via the Range Nuclear Renaissance ETF (NUKZ)

The coalition aims to train 25,000 workers over the next 10 years, creating pathways to stable, well-paying careers , /PRNewswire/ -- Duke Energy has joined the newly launched Careers Electric coalition, a new sector-driven approach to workforce development in America's skilled trades, with a targeted focus on North Carolina.

Why it matters: As electrification accelerates across energy, infrastructure and advanced manufacturing, electrical careers are projected to grow by roughly 10% over the next decade, with workforce gaps widening as experienced workers retire.

Our role: Duke Energy will help connect training to real-world job opportunities and ensure programs are aligned with industry needs, with a focus on commercial electricians, where demand is most acute. The company will:

Connect students to careers: Partner with companies like Zachry Group to create clearer pathways from training to job opportunities, particularly tied to major energy infrastructure and generation projects. Invest in training capacity: Support community colleges and workforce programs through Duke Energy Foundation funding, which has provided more than $6 million over the past five years to strengthen the energy workforce pipeline. Support local expansion: Champion new or expanded programs near Duke Energy construction sites to better align workforce supply with regional demand. Engage students early: Participate in graduation events and career fairs at training academies to raise awareness of electrical careers and connect students directly to employers. North Carolina focus: The coalition's early work in North Carolina could become a blueprint for other states and centers on two key pathways:

High schools: In 2026, the program aims to train 200-250 students and plans to scale annually. Community colleges: Ten North Carolina community colleges will expand existing advanced electrician programs by 20% over the next three years, with plans to grow to additional schools. What they're saying:

Kendal Bowman, Duke Energy's North Carolina president: "The energy transition and our state's growth depend on a strong skilled workforce. We're grateful to Siemens for their leadership in launching Careers Electric and bringing partners together for this first-of-its-kind effort. This initiative is about creating clear, accessible pathways into high-paying electrical careers – especially those that don't require a four-year degree – and helping build a pipeline of electricians ready to support North Carolina's future." David Etzwiler, CEO of the Siemens Foundation: "High-quality workforce training is essential not only to meet employers' growing demand for skilled talent, but also to expand access to well-paying trade careers for more Americans. Seeing industry leaders, including competitor companies, come together as part of this powerful coalition underscores just how important workforce training is to the strength of our economies and communities." Who's involved: Duke Energy joins founding industry partners ABB, Amazon Web Services, JetZero, Hitachi Energy and Siemens, alongside workforce development organizations and education leaders working to scale proven training models nationwide.

American International Group delivered a strong Q1, with EPS of $2.11, up 80% year-over-year and beating estimates by $0.23. Fears of margin compression are exaggerated; AIG's accident year combined ratio improved to 86.6%, and cost efficiencies are driving further profitability. AIG's balance sheet remains robust, supporting an 11% dividend increase, a 2.7% yield, and active share buybacks reducing share count by 9.5% year-over-year.

American International Group, Inc. (AIG - Free Report) reported first-quarter 2026 adjusted earnings per share of $2.11, which topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.90 per share. The bottom line surged 80.3% year over year.

Adjusted operating revenues advanced 5.4% year over year to $6.97 billion. The top line beat the consensus mark by 1.2%.

The strong quarterly results were driven by improved underwriting results in the North America Commercial and Global Personal segments, supported by lower catastrophe losses and reduced total losses and expenses. However, the upside was partly offset by lower investment income.

American International Group, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise

American International Group, Inc. price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart | American International Group, Inc. Quote

AIG’s Q1 Operational UpdateNet premiums written totaled $5.6 billion, reflecting 24% year-over-year growth, driven by 21% growth in Global Commercial and 11% growth in Global Personal.

Total net investment income declined 36% year over year to $712 million, which missed the consensus mark by 29.7%. The decrease was primarily due to changes in the fair value of its investments in Corebridge and equity securities, partly offset by higher income from available-for-sale fixed maturity securities. AIG holds a 5.6% stake in Corebridge.

Total benefits, losses and expenses amounted to $5.7 billion, down 2.7% year over year, mainly due to lower losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred.

Adjusted return on equity improved 450 basis points year over year to 10.9%, reflecting enhanced profitability and capital efficiency.

Underwriting income for the General Insurance segment rose to $774 million, reflecting a more than threefold increase over the previous year. This result significantly outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 33.9%. The segment’s combined ratio improved 850 basis points to 87.3%, reflecting significantly stronger underwriting performance compared with the prior-year quarter.

Segmental Performances of AIGGeneral Insurance – North America CommercialThe segment’s net premiums written increased 37% year over year to $1.6 billion in the first quarter. The uptick was driven by a combination of organic growth in high-priority areas, key renewals from the Everest Group partnership, and optimized reinsurance program changes.

Underwriting income surged 153% year over year to $327 million. This increase was mainly driven by lower catastrophe-related losses and higher favorable prior-year development. The combined ratio improved 840 basis points to 85.5%, reflecting significantly stronger underwriting performance year over year.

General Insurance – International CommercialThe segment reported net premiums written of $2.5 billion, up 21% year over year. The growth was mainly due to the Convex Group quota share, Everest renewals, and changes in reinsurance programs.

Underwriting income increased 16% year over year to $278 million in the quarter and beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.2%. The combined ratio improved 90 basis points to 87.3%. This was mainly due to lower catastrophe losses, reduced operating expenses, and favorable prior-year reserve development. This was partly offset by prior-year premiums.

General Insurance – Global PersonalNet premiums written totaled $1.5 billion, which improved 17% year over year. The increase was mainly driven by reinsurance program changes and growth in the U.S. High Net Worth and Accident and Health businesses.

Underwriting income rose to $169 million compared to a loss of $126 million last year. The combined ratio improved 1,850 basis points to 89.4%. This was driven by favorable prior-year reserve development and reduced catastrophe losses.

Other OperationsNet investment income and other fell 51% year over year to $54 million. This was mainly due to lower parent liquidity and reduced dividends from Corebridge, reflecting a smaller ownership stake. Interest expense rose 10% to $100 million, caused by new debt issued in 2025, partly offset by interest savings from debt repurchases.

Adjusted pre-tax loss widened 89% year over year to $125 million.

Financial Position of AIG (As of March 31, 2026)AIG ended the first quarter with a cash balance of $1.5 billion compared with $1.3 billion at the end of 2025. Total assets were $161.5 billion, slightly higher than $161.3 billion at the end of 2025.

Long-term debt totaled $9 billion in the first quarter of 2026, which remained unchanged from year-end 2025. Total shareholders’ equity fell to $40.4 billion from $41.2 billion at year-end 2025.

Adjusted book value per share improved to $78.55 from $74.45 in the prior-year quarter.

AIG’s Capital Deployment UpdateAIG returned capital to its shareholders through approximately $519 million in share repurchases and $241 million in dividends during the first quarter of 2026.

The company announced a cash dividend of 50 cents per common share, representing an 11% increase over the previous quarterly payout.

American International’s Zacks RankAIG currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

Performance of Other InsurersCompanies belonging to the broader Finance space, such as Arch Capital Group Ltd. (ACGL - Free Report) , AXIS Capital Holdings Limited (AXS - Free Report) and Selective Insurance Group (SIGI - Free Report) , have also posted their quarterly results. Here’s how they have performed:

Arch Capital reported first-quarter 2026 operating income of $2.50 per share, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.4%. The bottom line increased 15.4% year over year.

ACGL’s operating revenues of $4.3 billion decreased 3.8% year over year due to lower net premiums earned. Revenues missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6.1%. Net premiums earned declined 4.8% to $3.9 billion, due to lower premiums earned in its Reinsurance segment. The figure missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6%.

AXIS Capital reported first-quarter 2026 operating income of $3.42 per share, which outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3.23 and rose 7.9% year over year.

Total operating revenues of $1.7 billion marginally beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.4%. The top line rose nearly 7.7% year over year on higher premiums earned. AXS’s quarterly results benefited from higher net premiums earned and stronger underwriting income, partly offset by lower net investment income and higher expenses.

Selective Insurance reported first-quarter 2026 operating income of $1.69 per share, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.3%. The bottom line decreased 11% year over year.

SIGI’s operating revenues of $1.4 billion increased 6.4% from the year-ago quarter’s level, driven primarily by higher net premiums earned and net investment income. However, the top line missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.5%. Net premiums written decreased 1% to $1.3 billion. The figure matched our estimate.

At midday, the S&P 500 (^GSPC +0.50%) rose 0.64% to 7,254.82, the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC +0.31%) gained 1.07% to 25,163.49, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI +0.70%) added 0.04% to 49,668.01 as indexes extended April’s record‑setting momentum.

Market moversApple (AAPL 1.52%) jumped after topping Q2 estimates and issuing upbeat commentary, powering fresh highs for tech benchmarks. Moderna (MRNA +0.54%) slipped on mixed earnings, while AIG (AIG +0.56%) gained after beating analyst expectations. Gaming platform Roblox (RBLX 0.41%) tumbled 17% on a revenue miss. It slashed its full-year forecast as child-protection safeguards impact its user numbers.

What this means for investorsMarkets continued to rise this morning, largely driven by resilience in tech stocks. April was the best month for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq since 2020, as strong earnings and optimism about artificial intelligence (AI) outweighed concerns about elevated oil prices and the conflict in Iran.

However, several commentators are sounding the alarm. Last week, the Bank of England deputy governor said markets were overly complacent about current risk levels. Today, Moody's top economist, Mark Zandi, said valuations could be diverging from economic reality.

As oil prices continue to rise due to ongoing restrictions in the Strait of Hormuz, investors are trying to evaluate the degree to which the disruption is bleeding into the wider economy. In that context, yesterday’s news that U.S. GDP had grown by 2.0% signalled expansion despite inflationary and conflict pressures. Consumer spending slowed, but remained solid. Investors can expect further sector-specific volatility and uncertainty as market rallies continue to defy commentators’ caution.

All investors love getting big returns from their portfolio, whether it's through stocks, bonds, ETFs, or other types of securities. But when you're an income investor, your primary focus is generating consistent cash flow from each of your liquid investments.

Cash flow can come from bond interest, interest from other types of investments, and, of course, dividends. A dividend is the distribution of a company's earnings paid out to shareholders; it's often viewed by its dividend yield, a metric that measures a dividend as a percent of the current stock price. Many academic studies show that dividends account for significant portions of long-term returns, with dividend contributions exceeding one-third of total returns in many cases.

American International Group (AIG - Free Report) is headquartered in New York, and is in the Finance sector. The stock has seen a price change of -7.93% since the start of the year. The insurer is paying out a dividend of $0.45 per share at the moment, with a dividend yield of 2.29% compared to the Insurance - Multi line industry's yield of 1.82% and the S&P 500's yield of 1.39%.

Looking at dividend growth, the company's current annualized dividend of $1.80 is up 2.9% from last year. Over the last 5 years, American International Group has increased its dividend 3 times on a year-over-year basis for an average annual increase of 6.78%. Looking ahead, future dividend growth will be dependent on earnings growth and payout ratio, which is the proportion of a company's annual earnings per share that it pays out as a dividend. American International Group's current payout ratio is 22%, meaning it paid out 22% of its trailing 12-month EPS as dividend.

Looking at this fiscal year, AIG expects solid earnings growth. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2026 is $7.75 per share, representing a year-over-year earnings growth rate of 9.31%.

From greatly improving stock investing profits and reducing overall portfolio risk to providing tax advantages, investors like dividends for a variety of different reasons. But, not every company offers a quarterly payout.

For instance, it's a rare occurrence when a tech start-up or big growth business offers its shareholders a dividend. It's more common to see larger companies with more established profits give out dividends. Income investors have to be mindful of the fact that high-yielding stocks tend to struggle during periods of rising interest rates. With that in mind, AIG is a compelling investment opportunity. Not only is it a strong dividend play, but the stock currently sits at a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).

American International Group, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS SurpriseAIG’s Growth DriversDespite the recent decline in its share price, AIG has continued to deliver improvements across its core business. Below are the key factors supporting its ongoing turnaround.

The turnaround is being fueled by stronger underwriting results. In the first quarter of 2026, General Insurance underwriting income more than tripled year over year to $774 million, while the combined ratio improved 850 basis points to 87.3%. Net premiums written increased 24%, driven by growth across commercial and personal insurance businesses. Lower catastrophe losses and disciplined underwriting continue to support profitability.

Over the past few years, management has simplified the business and sharpened its focus on property and casualty insurance. The insurer exited several non-core operations, including Crop Risk Services. Validus Re and its travel insurance business. It also completed its exit from the life and retirement business through the sale of its remaining stake in Corebridge. These moves are reducing complexity, improving liquidity and freeing up capital for higher-return opportunities.

Ongoing cost-control efforts are helping improve operating efficiency. The General Insurance expense ratio improved 120 basis points year over year to 29.3% in the first quarter of 2026, keeping the insurer on track to achieve its target of reducing the ratio below 30% by 2027. The AIG Next program has generated annual run-rate savings of $500 million, supporting margin expansion.

Solid cash generation continues to support both growth initiatives and shareholder returns. During the first quarter of 2026, approximately $760 million was returned to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. In April 2026, the quarterly dividend was raised by 11%, marking the fourth consecutive year of double-digit dividend growth and reinforcing management's commitment to disciplined capital allocation.

Risks for AIG StockWhile the company's fundamentals are improving, investors should keep an eye on a few risks.

AIG remains exposed to large catastrophe events that could pressure future earnings. Significant weather-related claims may increase earnings volatility and weigh on underwriting profitability. The company also ended the first quarter of 2026 with $9 billion in long-term debt, significantly higher than its cash balance of $1.5 billion. Adjusted ROE of 10.9% remained below the industry average of 16.2%, suggesting there is still room for improvement in capital efficiency.
