Southern Company (NYSE:SO) is a major player in the energy sector, providing electricity to millions of customers across the southeastern United States. The company is involved in the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity, as well as natural gas distribution. Southern Company faces competition from other utility giants like Duke Energy and NextEra Energy.
Southern Company is set to release its quarterly earnings on October 30, 2025. Analysts expect the company to report earnings per share of $1.50, with projected revenues of approximately $7.91 billion. This earnings announcement is scheduled to occur before the market opens, and investors will be keenly watching the results.
The anticipated EPS of $1.50 for the quarter ending September 2025 reflects a 4.9% increase compared to the same period last year. This growth is supported by a 4.1% rise in revenues, projected to reach $7.91 billion. Over the past month, the consensus EPS estimate has been revised upward by 9.3%, indicating a positive reassessment by analysts.
Southern Company's performance in the third quarter is likely bolstered by strong demand in the Southeast region and the initiation of new projects. However, rising generation costs and other expenses could have exerted pressure on profitability. In the previous quarter, Southern Company exceeded expectations, reporting adjusted earnings per share of 91 cents, driven by higher utility revenues.
The stock's movement will largely depend on how the actual results compare to these expectations. If the earnings surpass estimates, the stock could see an upward trend, whereas a miss might lead to a decline. The sustainability of any immediate price changes and future earnings expectations will be influenced by management's discussion of business conditions during the earnings call.
