According to TradingView, Fortis posted third-quarter net earnings of $474M, or $0.92 per share, on revenue of $3.115B. Adjusted EPS rose to $0.92 from $0.87 a year earlier.

The company presented a $32.2B capital plan covering 2027 to 2031. It aims for a 7.5% compound annual rate-base growth and supports annual dividend growth of 4-6% through 2031.

why it matters

For investors, the key point is the long-term outlook. Regulated utilities earn mainly from growth in their rate base, so a large investment program and the promised dividend growth are directly tied to their returns.
