Capital Investment And Customer GrowthA multibillion-dollar five-year capital plan focused on customer additions, safety and pipe replacement supports above-average EPS growth by aligning spending with high-growth service areas.
Earnings GuidanceAnalyst points to FY26 EPS guidance implying about 10% earnings growth, suggesting potential upside versus current Street estimates.
Regulatory And Legislative TailwindsLegislation such as HB 4384 allowing gas utilities to defer depreciation and some taxes could reduce regulatory lag and improve long-term cash flow recovery for the company.
Bears Say

Valuation Premium Versus PeersAnalyst downgrade cites a valuation roughly 22% above local gas distribution peers, which raises downside risk if sector multiples compress.
