Track PCG free→PG&E grows earnings with EPS guided at $1.64 to $1.66 for 2026. It cut non-fuel operating costs by 2.5% in 2025 and aims for more savings. The company expanded renewable gas facilities and has over 1 million solar customers. These support steady revenue and profit growth.
Rising customer outrage over high bills risks revenue loss. New wildfire lawsuits and regulatory challenges could increase costs. Competition from solar and new laws may reduce PG&E's customer base and margins.
The stock trades about 28% below our fair value near $24. Analysts expect roughly 4% revenue growth. The price reflects moderate growth and legal risks, aligning with our cautious view.
