AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Eversource Energy (ES)

Eversource Q2 GAAP earnings fall to $53.7 million on $164 million offshore wind charge

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Eversource reported second-quarter 2026 GAAP earnings of $53.7 million, or $0.14 per share, down from $352.7 million, or $0.96 per share, a year earlier, after non-cash charges tied to its offshore wind contingent liability and the Aquarion water sale. Non-GAAP recurring earnings were $0.87 per share, and the company reaffirmed its 2026 non-GAAP recurring EPS guidance of $4.57 to $4.72, so shareholders face a sharp GAAP decline while the company's outlook is unchanged.
