Exelon beats Q1 earnings estimates, affirms full-year guidance

Investing.com - Exelon Corporation (NASDAQ:EXC) reported first-quarter 2025 adjusted earnings that surpassed analyst expectations, driven by higher utility earnings and rate increases across its subsidiaries.

The company also reaffirmed its full-year guidance.

The Chicago-based utility holding company posted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.92 for the quarter, exceeding the analyst consensus of $0.71 by $0.21. Revenue came in at $6.71 billion, topping estimates of $6.21 billion.

Exelon’s GAAP net income for the quarter rose to $0.90 per share from $0.66 per share in the same period last year.

The company attributed the improved performance primarily to distribution and transmission rate increases at ComEd and PHI, distribution rate increases at PECO and BGE, and favorable timing of distribution earnings at ComEd.

"The first quarter has put us firmly on the path to deliver within our full-year earnings guidance, through our unwavering commitment to safety, reliability and efficient execution of investments for our customers," said Exelon President and CEO Calvin Butler.

For the full year 2025, Exelon reaffirmed its adjusted EPS guidance range of $2.64 to $2.74, in line with the analyst consensus of $2.70. The company also reiterated its target of 5-7% compound annual growth in operating EPS from 2024 to 2028.

CFO Jeanne Jones noted that Exelon has made substantial progress on its financing plan, executing half of its debt financing needs and over 60% of its annualized 2025 equity needs in the first quarter.
