NextEra Energy (ISIN US65339F1012) had its price target cut by Mizuho from USD 95.00 to USD 80.00 on October 6, 2026, while the firm kept a Neutral rating, MarketBeat reported. The move gives the stock a clear valuation reference ahead of the company's next results date.

Three milestones shape the setup

On July 24, 2026, NextEra Energy reported second-quarter revenue of USD 7.53 billion, up 12.40 percent year over year, while earnings per share reached USD 1.15 against USD 1.11 consensus, according to MarketBeat. On October 3, 2026, Project Star was described as a USD 22.30 billion Texas energy campus with planned generation capacity of 6.47 gigawatts, according to Boerse Express. The latest event was Mizuho's October 6 target cut from USD 95.00 to USD 80.00, with the Neutral rating unchanged, as Markets Insider reported.

What does the target cut change?

The lower target contrasts with the operating figures from the second quarter of 2026. Revenue increased 12.40 percent year over year to USD 7.53 billion, but the result remained below the USD 8.11 billion consensus estimate, while earnings per share exceeded the USD 1.11 estimate by USD 0.04, according to MarketBeat. Management's fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings-per-share guidance remains USD 3.92 to USD 4.02, giving the coming report a test beyond the headline valuation change.

Results date is October 21

NextEra Energy's investor-relations page lists October 21, 2026, for the third-quarter 2026 conference call and identifies the October 7, 2026 announcement of the results date, NextEra Energy states. The scheduled report will put revenue, earnings per share and the USD 3.92 to USD 4.02 adjusted guidance range against the recent analyst reset.
