AES (AES) 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.
AES Corporation's 2024 earnings met expectations, with reliable management forecasts and continued strong dividends, despite revenue and EBITDA declines due to asset sales. For 2025, AES plans to focus on large-scale projects, responding to government changes by reducing capital investment by $1.7bn and cutting costs, including a 10% headcount reduction. AES's renewable energy expansion is robust, with 4GW of new capacity expected in 2025, expected to be protected from tariff impacts and supported by tax credits.
Investors love dividend stocks, especially the ultra-high-yield variety, because they offer a significant income stream and have massive total return potential.
CBOE, AGNC, JAZZ, AES and CNSWF are some of the stocks with high ROE to profit from as markets expect the tariff war to end soon.
AES, DPMLF and AVGO made it to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) income stocks list on April 22, 2025.
AES, PAM and DPMLF made it to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) value stocks list on April 22, 2025.
AES Corporation is transitioning from a high-debt utility to a cash-generating, renewables-focused platform, offering a mispriced investment opportunity. The business model combines stable U.S.-regulated utilities with growth in clean energy, providing steady cash flow and earnings. Trading at a low valuation with a high dividend yield, AES presents an attractive risk-reward setup for long-term investors if it meets its 2025 targets.
Here at Zacks, our focus is on the proven Zacks Rank system, which emphasizes earnings estimates and estimate revisions to find great stocks. Nevertheless, we are always paying attention to the latest value, growth, and momentum trends to underscore strong picks.
It's been a tough past few weeks for stocks. Despite one brilliantly bullish day last week, the S&P 500 is still down 15% from its February peak, and seemingly still testing the waters of lower lows.
AES is projected to gain from expanding renewable generation. The company is also retiring its coal-fired units to reduce carbon emissions from its portfolio.
