Eversource: Growing Power Consumption Sets The Stage For Growth
I am bullish on Eversource Energy due to rising electricity demand, robust capital investments, and a strong macro environment supporting growth. Eversource's financials show recurring EPS growth, impressive cash flow improvement, and consistent dividend increases, reinforcing my optimistic outlook. Despite a weak Altman-Z score and current ratio, Eversource's strong receivables and retained earnings support its ability to meet obligations and invest in growth.

Eversource Energy: Buy Rating Initiated Amid Rate Normalization Catalysts And $79 Price Target
We initiate on Eversource Energy at Buy, as we believe the market underestimates the rate normalization potential and regulatory catalysts for a re-rating. Our price target of $79/sh is predicated on applying a 4.5x EV/Sales multiple to our 2026 top-line estimate, implying 10% upside. We model ES's revenues at $12.7bn in 2025 and $12.9bn in 2026, as we expect muted topline growth as the headwinds ease.
