Question
NextEra faces rate headwinds as Q3 revenue is projected to rise 15.4%
Direct answer
NextEra Energy is heading into its Q3 earnings release with consensus revenue estimates pointing to $9.19 billion, a 15.4% year-over-year expansion driven by growing power demand. EPS is projected to reach $1.17 per share. Despite robust top-line momentum from renewable and data center grid interconnection demand, the equity has underperformed, dropping 6.45% over the last month as rising 10-year Treasury yields increase capital expenditure discounting rates.
