Q3 FY26 earnings call · Oct 27, 2026
Q3 FY26

TL;DR. Adjusted EPS grew, guidance was reaffirmed with confidence toward the high end, and the IRP adds roughly $27 billion of capital opportunity, while NorthStar, the gas rate order, new-load contracts, and financing progress support the outlook. GAAP EPS declined, weather was unfavorable, the large data center's capital remains outside the plan, the electric rate-case recommendation is below the request, Moody's has a negative outlook on Consumers Energy, and approximately $625 million matures at the parent next year.

Bullish
  • + The Commission approved $139 million in the gas rate case, approximately 60% of the company's final request, with a 9.8% ROE and 50% equity ratio. new
  • + Signed new-load contracts reached approximately 745 megawatts, with approximately 450 megawatts already energized. new
Bearish
  • − Weather produced a $0.05 unfavorable year-to-date variance versus last year. new
  • − The electric rate-case staff position recommends $265 million, below the company's revised $443 million request. new
  • − Approximately $625 million of parent debt matures next year. new
