Summary
Summary of the 8-K filed February 26, 2026. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated (PSEG) reported full-year 2025 net income of $2,111 milliona, or $4.22 per share, compared with $1,772 million, or $3.54 per share, in 2024.
Non-GAAP Operating Earnings were $2,029 millionb, or $4.05 per share, versus $1,839 million, or $3.68 per share, a year earlier. Fourth-quarter 2025 net income was $315 million ($0.63 per share) and non-GAAP Operating Earnings were $362 million ($0.72 per share). PSE&G drove the full-year improvement, with net income of $1,745 million versus $1,547 million, while PSEG Power & Other net income rose to $366 million from $225 million, helped by favorable items and higher nuclear output of 30.9 TWh.
The company initiated 2026 non-GAAP Operating Earnings guidance of $4.28 to $4.40c per share, and it raised its 2026 indicative annual common dividend by $0.16 per share to $2.68. Management also updated its long-term non-GAAP Operating Earnings growth target to 6% to 8% through 2030 and increased its regulated five-year capital spending plan to $22.5 billion to $25.5 billion for 2026 through 2030, supporting a rate base compound annual growth rate of 6% to 7.5%. Management states the plan can be funded without issuing new equity or selling assets.
The filing also highlights reliability and customer metrics, including a 91.2% full-year nuclear capacity factor, the 21st consecutive year of meeting or exceeding management's non-GAAP Operating Earnings guidance, and the approval of a three-year, $1.4 billiond gas main replacement program beginning January 2026. Investors should note the company's exposure to market-driven mark-to-market and nuclear decommissioning trust gains and losses, which are excluded from non-GAAP results and can materially affect GAAP net income.
