Income Statement Summary

Metric FY2022 FY2023 FY2024 YoY
Revenue $15.67B $14.66B $15.26B +4.0%
Operating Margin ~19% ~21% ~22% +1pp
Net Income $1.66B $2.52B* $1.82B -28%*

Adj. EPS ~$4.55 ~$5.03 $5.40 +7%

Cash Flow & Balance Sheet (FY2024)

Metric Value
Operating Cash Flow ~$4.8B
Capital Expenditures ~$4.8B
Free Cash Flow ~$36M (near zero — typical for growth utility)
Total Debt ~$22B
Total Assets ~$70B

Con Edison is a heavy capital reinvestment business. FCF is near zero because CapEx tracks or exceeds OCF; growth is equity- and debt-financed. Planned equity issuances: $1.4B in 2025, $1.85B in 2026.

Key Ratios (approximate)

  • P/E: ~16x (adj. FY2025 EPS $5.66) | Dividend Yield: ~3.4%
  • EV/EBITDA: ~12x | Regulatory ROE: ~9.9–10.1%
  • Rate Base Growth Target: 8.2% per year | LT EPS Growth Guidance: 5–7%

Growth Profile

Con Edison's growth is driven entirely by rate base expansion — investing in grid modernization, clean energy infrastructure, and resiliency upgrades and earning a regulated return on those investments. The $38B five-year capital plan (2025–2029) and $72B ten-year plan are designed to grow the rate base at ~8.2% annually. Revenue growth is modest and lumpy (tied to rate case outcomes). Adj. EPS growth of 5–7% annually is the target, with FY2025 actuals at +4.8% ($5.66/share) and FY2026 consensus at ~$6.06 (+7%).

Forward Estimates

  • FY2025 Actual: Revenue ~$15.3B; adj. EPS $5.66 (+7.6%)
  • FY2026 Consensus: Adj. EPS ~$6.06 (+7%); pending 2026–2027 rate cases proposing 17.9%/14.9% electric/gas base rate hikes to support capital recovery
  • Dividend: ~$3.24/year (50+ consecutive years of increases); yield ~3.4% at ~$95/share
