As previously reported, Janney Montgomery Scott analyst Michael Gaugler upgraded Eversource (ES) to Buy from Neutral, stating that he now consider the shares attractive following the stock's "meaningful" pullback. While the company "has certainly seen some project development setbacks," the Northern Pass Project opportunity still remains active, FERC may increase the allowable ROE on transmission projects at some point and the company's bid for Connecticut Water Service (CTWS) could, if successful, provide additional investments not yet baked in, Gaugler tells investors. He raised his fair value estimate on the stock to $63 from $60.
