EVRG

In the past six months, Evergy's stock has been influenced by several key events. The company announced its full-year 2025 GAAP earnings of $855.6 million, or $3.66 per share, and adjusted earnings of $893.8 million, or $3.83 per share. Financial results were negatively impacted by weather and weak industrial demand. Evergy received approval for new large load power service tariffs in both Kansas and Missouri during Q4 2025. Evergy reported strong first-quarter 2026 results, with adjusted EPS of $0.69, surpassing estimates, and revenue of $1.44 billion. This positive performance was driven by the recovery of regulated investments, growth in weather-normalized demand, and higher revenues from large customers. Evergy signed an electric service agreement for a new data center project in its Kansas Central service territory, set to begin service in 2027. The company reaffirmed its 2026 adjusted EPS guidance range of $4.14 to $4.34 and its long-term adjusted EPS annual growth target of 6% to 8%+ through 2030. Mild winter weather in Q1 2026 negatively impacted results by approximately $0.06 per share, though this was offset by strong underlying demand growth. The company also repurchased $244.1 million of its convertible notes in Q1 2026, which resulted in losses and fees impacting GAAP earnings.
