Base and Bull scenarios

Base60%

Price target

$31.64

-6.1% from spot

The Base scenario carries a probability of 60.0% and targets $31.64, implying an expected return of -6.1% relative to $33.70 (as of 2026-10-06). For this path to hold, capital expenditures across Kentucky, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island must proceed on schedule, translating completed grid hardening projects into approved rate base additions under stable cost-of-service ratemaking. Operating margins must remain resilient near historical utility averages, and customer load growth must match planned volumetric projections. Disconfirming developments would include regulatory disallowances on capital investments, protracted regulatory lag in rate proceedings, or higher debt service costs eroding net earnings. Investors should monitor quarterly rate filing progress and rate case settlement orders through FY2027 to verify capital compounding.

Rate base capital investments compound according to regulatory schedules across operating jurisdictions.
State utility commissions maintain authorized return on equity compacts near historical levels.
Operating margins remain stable, supported by formulaic fuel and environmental rider recoveries.
Balance sheet leverage remains managed as capital build intensity moderates over the multi-year horizon.

Bull20%

Price target

$43.99

+30.5% from spot

The Bull scenario represents an upside path carrying a probability of 20.0% and targeting $43.99, offering an implied return of 30.5% against $33.70 (as of 2026-10-06). In this scenario, commercial and industrial demand accelerates—bolstered by large-scale manufacturing and data center connections—driving volumetric electricity throughput above forecast. Concurrently, regulatory commissions grant constructive rate base treatment with favorable authorized returns on equity, and capital execution finishes ahead of schedule with zero disallowances. Disconfirming factors would be any slowdown in large-customer interconnection requests or pushback from consumer advocates during rate hearings. Confirmation will be observable in semi-annual commercial load reports and finalized rate case orders through FY2027.

Accelerating commercial, industrial, and data center electrification drives volumetric delivery growth.
