CenterPoint Energy said in its July 28, 2026 release that Q2 GAAP EPS was USD 0.37 and non-GAAP EPS was USD 0.40. The company also reiterated fiscal 2026 non-GAAP EPS guidance of USD 1.89-1.91, with the midpoint representing 8.00 percent growth over 2025 delivered results.

Capital plan reaches USD 66.7 billion

The same July 28 update raised CenterPoint's 10-year capital investment plan by USD 1.20 billion to USD 66.70 billion for 2026 through 2035. The spending is aimed at serving large-load demand in Houston and strengthening the electric network, making execution and funding central variables for the earnings outlook.

Analyst targets remain mixed

MarketBeat listed a consensus target of USD 44.93 and a Moderate Buy rating on September 29, 2026. Morgan Stanley had reduced its target from USD 39.00 to USD 38.00 while retaining an Equalweight rating in a September 18, 2026 research note, according to MarketBeat. The gap between those views highlights the tradeoff between regulated growth and the financing burden of a larger investment program.
