What the Analysts think about PPL

Analyst projections of the future price of PPL stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
PPL reaffirmed 2026 ongoing EPS guidance of $1.90–$1.98 and its 6%–8% annual growth target through at least 2029. Its $23 billion investment plan is expected to drive average annual rate-base growth above 10%. (PPL Corporation)
The data-centre opportunity is moving beyond a speculative pipeline: PPL reported more than 11 GW under signed service agreements and over 6.5 GW under construction in Pennsylvania. Its approved large-load tariff includes long-term commitments intended to make large customers pay for infrastructure built to serve them. (PPL Corporation, PPL Corporation)
Recent rate decisions improve the scope for PPL to recover investment through customer bills. Pennsylvania approved $275 million in additional annual base distribution revenue, while Rhode Island regulators approved annual electric and gas revenue increases of $44.1 million and $93.7 million, respectively. (PPL Corporation, SEC)
PPL’s data-centre protections face a regulatory challenge: Pennsylvania’s consumer advocate alleges that the current tariff could leave other customers paying most of the cost of some network upgrades. The commission’s review could affect the terms and economics of a major source of expected load growth. (TechTarget)
Rhode Island regulators did not approve the proposed second rate year and modified parts of the utility’s rate-case proposals. PPL also accepted an alternative that increases customer bill credits by about $11 million, limiting the expected recovery from the proceeding and leaving room for further regulatory dispute. (SEC)
Higher costs are already eating into the benefit of rate increases: PPL attributed Kentucky and Pennsylvania earnings pressure to higher depreciation and interest expense. Those costs could weigh further as the company funds its large investment programme. (PPL Corporation, SEC)
