Why It's Moving
Consolidated Edison Stock Faces Analyst Skepticism Despite Strong 2026 Run
- Earnings growth expectations are modest at just 4.8% for 2026, with the company projecting diluted EPS of $5.66, raising questions about momentum sustainability for a stock already up sharply year-to-date.
- The dividend hike to $3.55 annualized—maintaining the 55%-65% payout ratio—demonstrates shareholder commitment but offers limited catalyst for acceleration, as the utility sector remains stable but unexciting.
- Analyst sentiment is decidedly cautious: while three 'Strong Buy' ratings exist, five 'Strong Sells' and ten 'Holds' suggest significant skepticism, with the mean price target of $105.70 implying modest upside from recent levels.
