Contracted load outlook doubles to 56 GW

AEP reported a strong Q4 2025, beating EPS guidance, and dramatically raised its contracted load outlook to 56 GW, citing unprecedented demand from AI and data centers. Management reaffirmed its 2026 EPS guidance and long-term 7-9% EPS growth target, underpinned by a $72B base capex plan with identified incremental upside of $5-8B. The call was notable for the scale of load growth announced and the emphasis on supply chain security. FY2025 EPS was $5.97, beating the high end of guidance.
