The raised long-term growth target and strong capital investment plan suggest confidence in future earnings growth, particularly from Texas expansion. The modest EPS growth in 2025 was offset by improved guidance and strategic progress, making this a positive signal for long-term investors. Monitor the Quadvest acquisition close in mid-2026 and subsequent rate case filings for execution risks.
