Ryan Levine has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that indicate a positive outlook for PG&E’s stock. One of the key reasons is the recent legislative progress in California, where utility affordability bills have advanced, potentially becoming more favorable to shareholders. Additionally, there is an expectation of amendments related to wildfire fund recapitalization, which could further benefit the company.
Another significant factor in Levine’s rating is the recent decision by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to approve a revised version of PG&E’s cost cap, reducing it significantly for 2025. This reduction in the cost cap is seen as a positive development for PG&E’s financial outlook. Furthermore, Levine anticipates a substantial share price return of 37.4%, which supports the Buy recommendation.
According to TipRanks, Levine is a 4-star analyst with an average return of 6.7% and a 60.22% success rate. Levine covers the Utilities sector, focusing on stocks such as Constellation Energy Corporation, PG&E, and DTE Energy.
