The latest announcement is out from Spire ( (SR) ).
On May 6, 2026, Spire reported fiscal second-quarter 2026 results for the period ended March 31, highlighting the completion of its acquisition of Piedmont Natural Gas’s Tennessee business and the post-quarter sale of Spire Marketing, alongside agreements to sell Spire Storage and Spire Mississippi as part of its portfolio reshaping. The company posted higher net income of $217.6 million, or $3.51 per diluted share, and adjusted earnings of $223.7 million, or $3.76 per share, driven mainly by improved Gas Utility performance from new Missouri and Alabama rates, but lowered its fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings guidance to $3.90–$4.10 amid weather-related demand softness, while reaffirming its 2027 guidance and long-term 5–7% earnings growth target, signaling confidence in its regulated growth strategy for customers and shareholders.
The most recent analyst rating on (SR) stock is a Buy with a $100.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Spire stock, see the SR Stock Forecast page.
