Briefing

Fortis Q2 EPS rises to C$0.76 on C$2.8B revenue as rate-base growth drives earnings

Fortis Inc. reported second-quarter 2025 net earnings attributable to common equity shareholders of C$384 million, or C$0.76 per common share, up from C$331 million or C$0.67 in Q2 2024. Revenue was C$2.82 billion versus C$2.67 billion a year ago, driven by rate-base growth, higher flow-through costs in customer rates, and Central Hudson's revenue requirement reset effective July 1, 2024. The increase was partially offset by timing of operating costs, expiration of a regulatory incentive, lower allowed ROE at FortisAlberta, and higher holding company finance costs. First-half capital expenditures totaled C$2.9 billion against a C$5.2 billion annual plan. Fortis advanced load-growth opportunities including a ~300 MW data center agreement at Tucson Electric Power and received inaugural BBB+ ratings from Fitch.
