NiSource (NI) Earnings Date & Reports

NiSource delivered GAAP net income available to common shareholders of $510.7 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, up from $474.8 million, or $1.00 per share, in Q1 2025. This matched analyst consensus EPS estimates of $1.06.

Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $509.6 million, or adjusted EPS of $1.06, compared to $462.3 million, or $0.98, last year—an 8% increase driven by regulatory recoveries in base operations. Operating revenues totaled approximately $2.36 billion, up from $2.18 billion in Q1 2025 but below some estimates around $2.42 billion to $2.52 billion.

Both Columbia Operations (gas distribution) and NIPSCO Operations (gas and electric) showed higher operating income. Key metrics included record safety performance and expanded GenCo savings for customers. No major guidance changes beyond reaffirmation, with focus on $21 billion base capex plus data center upside.

Market Reaction and Investor Sentiment

Following the May 6 release, NiSource shares experienced a modest decline, trading at $47.66 on May 7, down 1.10% intraday, amid broader market pressures despite the EPS beat and upbeat guidance. Premarket trading saw a brief 1.68% rise on the EPS match and long-term outlook lift, but sentiment cooled on the revenue shortfall. Investors appreciated reaffirmation and data center momentum but weighed seasonal factors and capex execution risks.

Forward Outlook and Key Factors to Monitor

NiSource reaffirmed its FY 2026 non-GAAP adjusted EPS guidance of $2.02-$2.07, implying 8% growth at the midpoint from 2025's $1.90. The company also raised its 2023-2033 adjusted EPS compound annual growth rate (CAGR) to 9%-10%, fueled by data center opportunities.

A $28.6 billion five-year capital plan supports rate base expansion at 8%-10% annually, with $21 billion for base business and $7.6 billion added for GenCo and data centers. New deals with Amazon and Alphabet secure ~800 MW, delivering $1.4 billion in customer savings and grid enhancements.

Investors should track regulatory approvals, like anticipated June nod for Amazon contracts, and NIPSCO electric rate cases. Weather impacts on gas volumes, O&M efficiencies, and wholesale electric trends remain key. Progress on renewables and transmission will signal execution amid rising demand.
