The company reaffirmed its 2026 Core EPS guidance of $2.62–$2.82 per share and its target for Core EPS compound annual growth near the top end of 6%–8% from 2026 to 2030. A capital investment plan of $6 billion in 2026 is underway, with $2.9 billion deployed in the first half, and a five-year $36 billion Energize365 grid-modernization program expected to drive roughly 10% rate base growth and relies heavily on formula-rate recovery.
Growth is being supported by rising demand and regulated investment. Trailing 12‑month consolidated return on equity is 9.5%. Data center demand is a major driver: total contracted and pipeline demand reached 24.8 GW, up 30% since the first quarter, with 6.4 GW contracted and West Virginia demand increasing to 4.3 GW1.2 GW Maidsville Energy Center and multiple base rate and transmission proceedings across Ohio, West Virginia, New Jersey and Maryland.
