Duke Energy reported Q3 2026 reported and adjusted EPS of $1.99, up from $1.81 a year ago, on total operating revenues of $9.10 billion (up 6.6% YoY). Results were driven by recovery of infrastructure investments and favorable weather, partially offset by higher depreciation, interest expense, and a higher effective tax rate. The company narrowed its 2026 adjusted EPS guidance range to $6.70-$6.80 and said strong year-to-date performance positions it to deliver near the top end. Duke reaffirmed its 5-7% long-term adjusted EPS growth rate through 2030 off the 2025 midpoint of $6.30, with confidence to earn in the top half of the range beginning in 2028.
