Following company updates from Q3 reports and the Edison Electric Institute Financial Forum Conference, combined with regulatory actions and relative performance, Barclays analyst Eric Beaumont updated adjusted his ratings and estimates in the North America Power & Utilities space. The analyst upgraded Duke Energy (DUK), Pinnacle West (PNW) and Alliant Energy (LNT) to Overweight from Equal Weight. Duke and Pinnacle West have "underperformed meaningfully based on idiosyncratic issues," says the analyst, who sees "compelling relative upside" in the stocks. Further, Alliant needs less equity than assumed and has improved regulatory treatment, adds Beaumont. The analyst also upgraded PNM Resources (PNM) to Equal Weight from Underweight following the stock's underperformance. Further, he downgraded both CenterPoint Energy (CNP) and PSEG (PEG) to Equal Weight from Overweight. CenterPoint appears to be headed towards a "significantly adverse" regulatory outcome for Houston Electric, and PSEG's Q3 disclosures resulted in lower earnings at PEGP Power, contends Beaumont. The analyst also downgraded Consolidated Edison (ED) to Underweight from Equal Weight. HE says the company received a fair order in the CECONY rate case, but will be challenged to hit the high end of the performance range.
