Edison International Q1 Earnings Highlight $41 Billion Capex Plan, 7% Rate Base Growth

By

-- Edison International (EIX) reported Q1 earnings Tuesday and outlined a $38 billion to $41 billion capital plan through 2030 to support grid investments and reliability, and to meet rising demand, the company said.

The company expects the rate base to grow at about 7% annually from 2025 to 2030, reaching almost $67.9 billion by 2030, driven by infrastructure and electrification investments.

Annual investments are expected to range between $7.3 billion and $9.1 billion through 2030, including California Public Utilities Commission- and FERC-regulated projects and advanced metering programs, the company added.

CAISO-awarded FERC transmission projects form a key part of Edison International's long-term investment plan, with additional opportunities beyond 2030, including about $2 billion of projects supporting grid expansion and reliability, the company said.

The advanced metering infrastructure program represents a total investment of about $3.1 billion, with roughly 50% allocated between 2026 and 2030 and the remaining 50% scheduled for 2031 to 2033.

Southern California Edison, a unit of Edison International, holds variable interests in certain power purchase agreements, limiting its financial exposure, the company said.

These agreements provided 6.06 gigawatts of contracted capacity as of March 31, 2026, up from 5.30 GW a year earlier, with payments rising to $204 million from $172 million, recoverable through customer rates.

The company said these arrangements carry no significant loss exposure, as they do not guarantee debt or equity support and rely on regulated cost-recovery mechanisms, thereby ensuring stable financial positioning.

Research Alert: Ter Beats Expectations, But Q2 Guidance Only In Line, Disappointing The Bulls

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:TER's results again beat consensus in Q1, with sales of $1.28B (+87% Y/Y) outpacing the Street's $1.22B by 5.5% and non-GAAP EPS of $2.56 (+241%) beating expectations for $2.11 by 21%. While still impressive, these results may disappoint more bullish investors, following Q4's blowout beats of 11%/30% for sales/EPS, respectively. Guidance was similarly underwhelming given high expectations, with midpoints of $1.20B in revenue and $2.01 in EPS coming in only just above the Street's views of $1.19B/$1.96, whereas last quarter's guidance beat by an eye-popping 27%/66% for sales/EPS. AI comprised approximately 70% of demand during the quarter, as expected. Semiconductor Test (87% of sales) accelerated +105%, System Test grew +78%, and Robotics rebounded +32% after declines throughout 2025, reflecting broad-based demand. We think 2H will start to reverse 1H's strength given order lumpiness and management's warnings of demand pull-in, with ongoing memory/cleanroom constraints potentially adding pressure.
