-- CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:
We raise our 12-month target by $13 to $117, 26.0x our next-12-month EPS estimate of $4.49, a premium to its five-year forward average of 18x. We lift our 2026 EPS view by $0.01 to $4.40 and our 2027 EPS view by $0.07 to $4.95. ETR maintained its 2026 adjusted EPS guidance range of $4.25-$4.45 (midpoint of $4.35) and raised 2027-2029 guidance by $0.20-$0.50, with 2029 adjusted EPS now expected at $6.40. The company's enhanced earnings trajectory and substantial capital deployment position it well for sustained growth, in our view. Key execution items to monitor include regulatory approval of the Louisiana Lightning filing (expected December 2026), sourcing the remaining $4.7B in equity through 2029, and construction execution on seven new combined-cycle plants by 2030-2031. We anticipate dividend growth will remain competitive with peers (5.2% CAGR from 2025 to 2028), though we think recent share price and valuation advances have reduced near-term upside potential relative to peers.
