Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Despite quarterly EPS softness vs. year-ago, the company reaffirmed a strong long-term growth path (5-7% adjusted EPS through 2030), plus sizable capex and net asset portfolio shifts to regulated utilities (NMGC/GBPC). This combination can support multiple expansion and improved investor confidence in EMA’s regulated utility bets.
