Edison International ( (EIX) ) has issued an update.

On April 23, 2026, Edison International expanded its board from 11 to 12 members and elected former American Water CEO and veteran utility executive M. Susan Hardwick as an independent director, reflecting a push to deepen expertise in regulated utilities, capital allocation and long-term infrastructure planning. Hardwick also joined the Southern California Edison board and will serve on key audit, finance and compensation committees, bolstering governance as the company advances its clean energy and reliability agenda.

The company also unveiled a planned finance leadership transition, with Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Maria Rigatti set to step down as CFO on July 3, 2026 and retire on September 1, 2026, while Southern California Edison CFO Aaron D. Moss will become Edison International’s new CFO at the close of business on July 3. Moss’s new role is accompanied by higher salary, incentive targets and additional long-term equity awards, underscoring the strategic importance of finance leadership as Edison navigates capital-intensive grid and clean energy investments.

On the same date, the board amended the company’s bylaws to clarify how officer duties can be delegated and to better define the interplay among the chief financial officer, controller and treasurer roles, removing outdated language that automatically shifted CFO responsibilities to the treasurer. These governance and structural changes signal Edison International’s effort to modernize its leadership framework and maintain financial and operational oversight during a period of ongoing industry transition and regulatory complexity.

The most recent analyst rating on (EIX) stock is a Sell with a $62.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Edison International stock, see the EIX Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on EIX Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, EIX is a Outperform.

EIX scores well on valuation (low P/E and solid dividend yield) and has supportive multi-year guidance/financing messaging from the earnings call, but the overall score is constrained by persistent negative free cash flow and elevated/uncertain leverage dynamics, with technicals strong yet overextended.
