Algonquin Power & Utilities (AQN) doesn't possess the right combination of the two key ingredients for a likely earnings beat in its upcoming report. Get prepared with the key expectations.

Algonquin is divesting renewable assets to focus on regulated services, aiming for stable profits and dividends. The company's regulated services are under-earning but expected to improve with new rate approvals, particularly in New York and Bermuda. Algonquin's financial leverage will decline post-renewables separation, aided by recent dividend cuts.

OAKVILLE, ON , Oct. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. (TSX: AQN) (NYSE: AQN) ("AQN") today announced plans to release its third quarter 2024 financial results on Thursday, November 7, 2024, before market open. AQN will hold an earnings conference call at 10:00 a.m.

Algonquin is transitioning to a pure-play regulated utility, exiting merchant power activities to reduce debt and simplify its business, creating significant shareholder value. The utility sector is currently thriving due to rising power demand, declining rates and rising regulated revenues, making it an attractive investment. Algonquin is trading at a significant discount to peers, with the potential for its equity value to double as it adds assets to its rate base.
