Analysis · OGE · Energy & Transportation
Third-quarter net income rose to $316.2 million ($1.52 per diluted share) from $231.3 million ($1.14) a year earlier, driven mainly by much warmer weather — cooling degree days up 47% — and load growth at OG&E. Management now expects full-year 2026 earnings of $2.62 to $2.68 per average diluted share, a range that brackets the $2.32 already booked through nine months. The bigger structural items sit alongside the results: OG&E filed a $395.0 million Oklahoma general rate review on September 30 seeking a 10.5% return on equity, and on October 27 filed for preapproval of a roughly 755 MW gas combined cycle unit at Horseshoe Lake costing about $1.7 billion. To fund a capital plan now totaling $7,840 million for 2026-2030, OGE Energy says it expects to establish an at-the-market equity program of up to $750 million — an overhang on the stock, though the company also has $191.3 million of forward equity sale agreements it can settle through May 27, 2027.
