Moreover, rate-based growth from regulated investments may have positively contributed to its revenues.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $2.56 billion, indicating an increase of 10.9% from the year-ago quarter.
Improvement in power cost comparisons, along with higher off system sales and lower capacity prices for its nuclear fleet, is expected to have benefited PEG’s earnings.
