PNW PINNACLE WEST CAPITAL CORP
Price Chart
Executive Summary
Pinnacle West reported a strong Q1 2026 beat, with EPS of $0.27 vs. consensus of -$0.03 and revenue up 11.4% YoY to $1.15B, driven by hotter-than-normal weather and robust customer growth of 2.2%. The company maintained its 2026 EPS guidance of $4.55-$4.75, signaling confidence in full-year outlook.
Actionable Insight
The strong beat and maintained guidance support the stock near-term. Watch for the APS rate case decision expected in late 2026 and any updates on equity dilution from the forward program.
