CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (NYSE:CNP) shares are trading lower on Thursday after the company reported adjusted EPS of 40 cents, which is in line with the consensus. 

Adjusted EPS increased 25% year-over-year, driven by growth, regulatory recovery, and lower O&M, each adding 5 cents per share. Also, weather and usage contributed an additional 2 cents per share. 

Jason Wells, President & CEO of CenterPoint, said, “Through our GHRI work, we’ve made significant progress on our goal of building the most resilient coastal grid in the nation. Our recently filed $5.75 billion Systemwide Resiliency Plan will provide the next significant step change in our long-term hardening work and will accelerate our delivery of a self-healing grid, all for the benefit of our customers and communities.” 

Outlook: CenterPoint increased its 10-year capital plan through 2030 to $47.5 billion, adding $500 million for grid resiliency in the Houston region.

Also, CenterPoint updated its forecast for electric demand growth in its Houston Electric service territory, expecting nearly a 50% increase by 2031.

The company reaffirmed its 2025 non-GAAP EPS guidance of $1.74-$1.76 (vs. consensus of $1.75), reflecting 8% growth at the midpoint over 2024, and maintained its long-term EPS growth target of 6%-8% annually through 2030.
