TEST SEC U by Test Comp

The Trump administration has made an urgent plea to the Supreme Court to prevent Elon Musk&#8216;s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from disclosing its operational documents&nbsp;to a federal watchdog group.
What Happened: The administration made the appeal on Wednesday, asking the Supreme Court to overturn court orders requiring DOGE to share its operational documents with Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), <a href="https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-doge-freedom-information-records-trump-14a1773b42ddad1e3367a39750a84bef">reported</a> AP News.
The Justice Department maintains that DOGE, a significant component of President Trump&#8217;s government reform initiatives, is a presidential advisory body and therefore not subject to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests.
In February, CREW initiated a lawsuit claiming that DOGE&nbsp;wields considerable power without any transparency about its activities.&nbsp;In March, U.S. District Judge&nbsp;Christopher Cooper&nbsp;ruled that DOGE&#8217;s role likely goes beyond advisory, noting its role in the closure of USAID and the reduction of billions in government contracts.&nbsp;
Cooper has given the administration a compliance deadline of June 13. Solicitor General D. John Sauer urged the justices to act swiftly, calling Cooper's orders "extraordinarily overbroad and intrusive."

Why It Matters:&nbsp;This latest development is part of a series of legal battles surrounding DOGE&#8217;s authority and operations. Earlier this month, the Trump administration&nbsp;sought Supreme Court <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45189902/trump-administration-pushes-supreme-court-to-greenlight-doge-access-to-americans-social-security-data-despite-lower-courts-fishing-expedition-warning">approval&nbsp;</a>for DOGE to access sensitive Social Security data, despite a lower court&#8217;s ruling against this. This move further escalated the ongoing dispute over data privacy and executive authority.
Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), has been at the center of these controversies. Musk&#8217;s DOGE has been&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44778750/musks-government-efficiency-push-falls-short-as-treasury-data-shows-spending-up-sharply-under-trumps-second-term-report">aggressively cutting costs</a>, yet federal spending has reportedly increased by $154 billion since Trump&#8217;s second term began. This has raised questions about the effectiveness and impact of DOGE&#8217;s actions.
When CNBC&#8217;s David Faber asked Musk on Tuesday about the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45534314/elon-musk-just-got-grilled-on-doge-spending-hits-back-with-were-not-kings-here">concrete results</a> of DOGE&#8217;s cost-cutting measures, pointing out the criticism Musk has received, Musk replied: "We are advisers. We are not—we&#8217;re not kings here." Previously, Musk had accepted that DOGE hadn&#8217;t been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45163408/doge-not-as-effective-as-id-like-says-elon-musk-calls-reform-really-difficult-like-changing-direction-of-a-fleet-of-supertankers">as effective</a> as he&#8217;d like.

Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) maintained healthy momentum Thursday morning, following Bitcoin&#8217;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) record-breaking rally, which bolstered the entire cryptocurrency market.
What happened: The dog-themed token sailed to an intraday high of $0.2433 late Wednesday night before experiencing a minor pullback. DOGE's trading volume popped 55% to over $3 billion, making it one of the most traded cryptocurrencies in the last 24 hours.
Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader Ali Martinez spotted DOGE's breakout from a bull pennant formation, suggesting a price target of $0.31.
A bullish pennant is a continuation chart pattern, indicating resumption of an uptrend after a pause or consolidation period.

Future Fund LLC's Managing Director, Gary Black, called Baidu Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) autonomous taxi service, Apollo Go, the "world's autonomous ride-hailing leader" as it reached the eleven million paid rides milestone.
What Happened: "$BIDU‘s Apollo Go autonomous ride hailing business has now completed 11 million paid autonomous rides," Black said in a post on social media platform X on Wednesday.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Black then set the context and drew parallels with services like Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Waymo and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). "In 1Q, Apollo Go expanded its driverless ride-hailing business into Dubai and Abu Dhabi," he said, highlighting the company's growth.
He also shared updates from the company's Q1 earnings release and how Apollo will provide fully autonomous rental services in China. The company also completed 1.4 million rides in Q1 2025.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as Baidu CEO Robin Li touted the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45557944/baidus-apollo-go-enters-dubai-and-abu-dhabi-ceo-robin-li-touts-global-robotaxi-lead-with-1-4-million-rides-in-q1">Apollo Go's robotaxi prowess </a>at the company's earnings call. With the Dubai and Abu Dhabi expansion, the service operates in over 15 cities globally.
"With over 1,000 fully driverless vehicles now deployed globally, we continue to solidify our position as the world's leading autonomous ride-hailing service provider," Li shared at the earnings call.
Elsewhere, Waymo recently announced it reached the ten million paid autonomous rides mark, doubling its total in a period of 5 months. The figure includes rides from cities like Phoenix, Los Angeles, and Austin.
Waymo has had a substantial lead over rivals like Tesla and Amazon.com Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Zoox, as the company had also previously shared it reached <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001569/waymo-announces-250000-weekly-paid-rides-across-four-us-cities-sundar-pichai-says-personal-ownership-an-option-in-the-future">250,000 weekly rides</a>.

Gary Black Calls Tesla Rival Baidu's Apollo Go 'Autonomous Ride Hailing Leader' Following Eleven Million Paid Robotaxi Rides Milestone

Cadeler today announces that it has agreed to acquire the Boqiang 3060 – a newly-constructed jack-up wind turbine installation vessel (WTIV) – from Shanghai Boqiang Heavy Industry Group Co., Ltd, expanding its fleet and enhancing its capacity to meet the increasing global demand for offshore wind turbine operations &amp; maintenance (O&amp;M) services.
The vessel will be renamed Wind Keeper, a name symbolising both the vessel's position as a rare and valuable find – a true "keeper" – and her focus on ensuring the up-keep of green energy generation through the provision of O&amp;M services to the offshore wind industry.
Completed in 2024 and fitted with advanced European equipment, including a Huisman main crane with a 2,200 t lifting capacity, Kongsberg's DP2 dynamic positioning system, MAN-supplied engines and a Siemens propulsion system, the vessel is uniquely suited for the global offshore O&amp;M market, with 120-meter-long jack-up legs that will enable her to work on the most challenging offshore sites.
Cadeler expects to take delivery of the Wind Keeper in Q3 2025, for a purchase price significantly below the vessel's estimated replacement cost. While the vessel comes equipped to a high standard, Cadeler will invest in certain upgrades to improve her operational capacity and align her onboard offering with that of Cadeler's existing fleet. After the contemplated upgrades, the vessel will be capable of supporting new installations in the 15 MW segment. Cadeler is continuing to assess the cost to Cadeler of such upgrades and will communicate its total investment in the vessel in due course.
The acquisition is fully debt financed on attractive terms, with a facility provided by DNB Bank ASA.
Following a comprehensive review of available offshore assets globally, Cadeler is pleased to have secured this unique asset, which will be capable of delivering an immediate operational impact on a cost-effective basis.

Urban Outfitters Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/URBN#NASDAQ">URBN</a>) reported better-than-expected first-quarter earnings on Wednesday and highlighted that it was navigating the tariff-induced headwinds with its diversification strategies by sourcing from multiple countries.
What Happened: The company&#8217;s Co-President and COO, Frank Conforti, highlighted during the earnings call that &#8220;Quickly after the announcement of tariffs, our teams started working on how to mitigate the impacts with a primary focus on the customer's experience.&#8221;
He underscored that this happened through vendor negotiations, shifting countries of origin, changing transportation modes, from air to boat, and &#8220;gently and sparingly&#8221; raising prices.
&#8220;We currently have no single country that accounts for more than 25% of our production. India, Vietnam, and Turkey are our three largest countries of origin, while China represents less than 5%,&#8221; he said.
Conforti also reiterated that URBN is confident in achieving 50 to 100 basis points of gross margin improvement for fiscal year 2026 despite tariff uncertainty.
However, company CFO Melanie Marein-Efron said that Urban Outfitters could face &#8220;some fashion risk of bringing product in early&#8221; in the second quarter as the company had some early receipts to bring in inventory ahead of the uncertain tariff outlook.
However, she said that the inventory also arrived &#8220;earlier than planned.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Urban Outfitters reported a revenue of $1.33 billion, which beat the Street estimate of $1.28 billion. Also, the earnings of $1.16 per share beat the analyst consensus estimate of 82 cents by 41.46%.
Talking about the second quarter, the CFO also said that &#8220;We believe that it is prudent planning to bring in fall inventory, which is less sensitive to fashion early, given the uncertain tariff outlook and any potential supply chain disruptions that could occur in the future.&#8221;
URBN shares ended 2.84% lower on Wednesday and rose 17.45% in after-hours. The company has advanced 4.86% on a year-to-date basis and 51.19% over a year.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUOL#NASDAQ">DUOL</a>), citing Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) subsidiary Google&#8217;s newly announced artificial intelligence translation technology as a significant threat to the language learning company&#8217;s business model.
What Happened: Citron acknowledged on social media platform X that the firm &#8220;got it wrong&#8221; with its initial short position before Duolingo&#8217;s last earnings report. However, it maintained that Google&#8217;s latest AI innovation has strengthened its bearish thesis rather than weakened it.
&#8220;Yesterday, Google changed the entire language learning market at I/O 2025,&#8221; Citron wrote, referencing Google&#8217;s developer conference where the tech giant unveiled Meet&#8217;s AI-powered speech translation feature.
Citron compared the potential impact to historical technological disruptions. &#8220;Saying Google&#8217;s new AI translation tool won&#8217;t impact Duolingo is like saying calculators didn&#8217;t reduce the need to learn arithmetic,&#8221; he stated.

Why It Matters: The new Google Meet tool translates conversations in near real-time while preserving the speaker&#8217;s voice, tone, and expression.
According to Google, the Gemini-powered feature can translate between English and Spanish initially, with Italian, German, and Portuguese support planned for the coming weeks.
The service requires a subscription to Google&#8217;s AI Pro plan or the new AI Ultra subscription at $249.99 monthly, <a href="https://www.theverge.com/news/670322/google-meet-gemini-translation-ai-english-spanish">according</a> to The Verge.
The short seller&#8217;s renewed pessimism contrasts sharply with recent Wall Street sentiment. JPMorgan analyst Bryan Smilek maintained an Overweight rating on Duolingo with a $500 price target earlier this month, projecting 20% revenue growth driven by user <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45234350/duolingo-analyst-sees-ebitda-expansion-strong-user-trends-and-monetization-upside">expansion and gamification features</a>.
Duolingo currently serves 130 million monthly active users, representing approximately 18% of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45234350/duolingo-analyst-sees-ebitda-expansion-strong-user-trends-and-monetization-upside">global online language learners</a>. 
Price Action: Duolingo Inc.&#8217;s stock closed at $514.30 on Wednesday, down 2.17% for the day. Year to date, the stock has gained 57.82%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Short Seller Andrew Left's Citron Doubles Down On Duolingo Short, Says Google's AI Tool Changes The Business

Gerber Kawasaki CEO and Co-Founder Ross Gerber says that Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk is taking "very concrete steps" to improve the situation at the company.
What Happened: "Seems like Elon might've gotten my message that he needs to get back to work at Tesla, he needs to start doing positive media," Gerber said in an interview <a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/video/shows/the-close/2025/05/20/elon-musk-commits-to-staying-as-tesla-ceo/">with</a> Bloomberg on Tuesday.
Gerber then highlighted how Musk stepping away from the government and the "divisive comments", which were hurting the brand's image, was a "good development" for the company.
However, Gerber also outlined that Musk would need to recalibrate his focus on the company. "You're not gonna change Elon so I'm not gonna try to go down that path," he said. "I think it's mostly where his focus is and where his communication and communication is done, which really affects Tesla sales and the brand substantially," Gerber said.
Gerber also weighed in on June's Robotaxi launch and how it is a "crucial time" for the EV giant. Speaking on Robotaxi, Gerber said, "Clearly, this is a product that's not quite ready to go," before highlighting there was still a lot of work to be done at Tesla.
Why It Matters: Gerber's comments come in at a time when Musk is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45519469/tesla-stock-rises-after-musk-reaffirms-leadership-and-business-rebound">reaffirming his commitment </a>to Tesla as well as robotaxis. Recently, the billionaire brushed off the idea of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45535283/elon-musk-brushes-off-potential-tesla-uber-deal-believes-owners-could-add-their-cars-to-ev-giants-autonomous">a potential deal</a> with ride-hailing giant Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>).
Interestingly, Gerber <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45511328/ross-gerber-slams-teslas-fsd-technology-ahead-of-robotaxi-launch-maintains-bearish-views-on-elon-musks-company-after-dumping-10-stake-in-q1-2025">has been bearish</a> on Tesla and dumped more than 20,000 Tesla shares in Q1 2025. He has also criticized FSD technology on numerous occasions.&nbsp;
Elsewhere, analysts like Dan Ives <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45557873/tesla-bull-dan-ives-thinks-elon-musks-ev-giant-could-be-entering-a-golden-era-says-2-trillion-market-cap-on-the-table">maintain bullish views</a> on Tesla. Ives recently said that he believes a two-trillion-dollar market cap for Tesla "could be on the table" following Musk's comments.

Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNOW#NYSE">SNOW</a>) shares are on the rise following a hike in its price target by Piper Sandler.
What Happened: The stock is up 7% in pre-market trading on Thursday, after Piper Sandler analysts, led by Brent Bracelin, reaffirmed their &#8220;overweight&#8221; rating on the stock, while increasing the price target to $215, from $175, representing a 20% upside from current levels.
Bracelin called Snowflake one of their &#8220;highest conviction growth ideas&#8221; for 2025, with the bullish thesis resting on it achieving &#8220;Rule of 50,&#8221; which means 25% product revenue growth, alongside 25% in free cash flow margins, at over $4 billion in annual recurring revenue.

&#8220;Solid Q1 execution evident by the $39 million beat on 26% y/y product growth was encouraging given an uncertain macro backdrop,&#8221; the note says. 
It also highlights two $100 million-plus deals with financial services customers and a sharp uptick in customers using AI/ML tools weekly, which now stands at over 5,200, up from 4,000 the prior quarter.
The analysts note that while most other software companies they cover have maintained their annual guidance &#8220;out of an abundance of caution,&#8221; Snowflake has raised its annual product revenue guidance by $45 million at the midpoint, or 25% year-over-year growth, ahead of 24% that was guided earlier.
Why It Matters: Most other leading analysts remain <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/technicals/25/05/45550440/snowflake-melts-resistance-can-q1-earnings-spark-a-fresh-flurry-of-gains">upbeat on the stock</a>, with an average consensus Price Target of $203.69, an upside of 13.7% from current levels.
The stock is up 27.73% over the past 1 month, since its late-April lows, and is up 13.72% year-to-date, following a volatile couple of weeks recently.
The company released its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45553121/snowflake-q1-earnings-revenue-eps-beat-estimates-ai-data-cloud-company-sees-25-growth-ahead-shares-climb">first quarter results</a> on Wednesday, reporting $1.04 billion in revenue, beating consensus estimates of $1.01 billion. It reported a profit of $0.24 per share, ahead of estimates at $0.21 per share. 
Price Action: The stock was down 2.06% on Wednesday, trading at $179.12 per share, but is up 8.50% after hours, following its first quarter results and an increase in analyst price targets.

Snowflake Jumps 8% Pre-Market After Piper Sander Hikes Price Target To $215, Calls It 'High-Conviction Growth Play'

The Republican tax bill, a priority of the Trump administration, could exacerbate wealth inequality in the U.S., according to a report by Oxfam. The non-profit organization argues that the legislation would disproportionately benefit the affluent.
What Happened: Oxfam America&#8217;s study suggests that the proposed tax cuts would further stack the odds against ordinary citizens in favor of the wealthy. The report also explores the possibility of implementing a wealth tax on ultra-millionaires and billionaires as a means to address inequality. Oxfam&#8217;s analysis shows that a 3% tax on wealth exceeding $1 billion could raise $50 billion from just the 10 richest Americans—enough to fund a year of food assistance for 22.5 million people, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/05/21/business/billionaire-tax-cut-trump">reported </a>CNN.
However, the implementation of such a wealth tax could face significant challenges, including valuation of net worth and potential constitutional issues. The debate persists as lawmakers consider whether to extend the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the hallmark tax legislation of the Trump administration.
Meanwhile, a new study from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) revealed that the benefits arising from the &#8220;One Big Beautiful Bill Act,&#8221; would not be evenly distributed, with the bottom 10% of earners facing a 4% drop in household resources by 2033, while the top 10% would gain 2% due to lower taxes.
Meanwhile, Kent Smetters, a business economics professor from University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School told CNN that the top 10% of households would receive approximately $3.1 trillion in tax cuts over a decade. This possibly includes the likes of billionaires like Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk, Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Founder Jeff Bezos and Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Here&#8217;s What He Says It Means</a>
Why It Matters: The potential impact of the &#8220;One Big Beautiful Bill Act&#8221; on wealth inequality has been a subject of intense debate. A&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536595/big-beautiful-bill-will-explode-the-deficit-and-make-the-rich-richer-congressional-budget-office">recent report by the Congressional Budget Office</a>&nbsp;estimated a 4% income drop for the lowest decile of Americans by 2033, raising concerns about the bill&#8217;s impact on the wealth gap.
Meanwhile, the bill&#8217;s potential to exacerbate the deficit has also been a point of contention. A&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536595/big-beautiful-bill-will-explode-the-deficit-and-make-the-rich-richer-congressional-budget-office">CBO report</a>&nbsp;suggested that the tax changes, including the extension of the 2017 tax act, could increase the federal deficit by $3.8 trillion.
These concerns have prompted strong reactions from political figures. Senator&nbsp;Elizabeth Warren&nbsp;criticized the Republicans for advancing the bill through late-night votes, questioning their motives. The bill&#8217;s potential impact on wealth inequality and the deficit continues to be a key point of contention in ongoing political debates.

Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' Could Be $3.1 Trillion Jackpot For Affluent Americans Like Elon Musk And Jeff Bezos: Report

The shoemaker of the popular brand, Vans — VF Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VFC#NYSE">VFC</a>), highlighted that a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45544873/v-f-corp-tumbles-after-q4-miss-vans-slump-and-gloomy-q1-forecast">dip in the segment sales</a> was part of the company&#8217;s turnaround plan, and investors would likely see the &#8220;high quality&#8221; earnings in the future.
What Happened: The Vans unit of VF Corp reported a 20% drop in sales as compared to the previous year and an 8% decline sequentially.
VF Corp&#8217;s President and CEO, Bracken Darrell, underscored that if you exclude Vans, the company&#8217;s total revenue growth would be up 4%.
&#8220;We told you last quarter that turnarounds are often nonlinear. To be clear, turnarounds can look nonlinear from a numerical standpoint, and this quarter is an illustration of that,&#8221; he said.
Darrell highlighted that 60% of the decline in the segment this quarter was a direct effect of deliberately reducing revenue to eliminate unprofitable or unproductive business. Additionally, 25% of it was driven by reduced storefronts and reduced channel inventory in China.
&#8220;Another 35% of the total decline was driven by additional set of deliberate actions, which were also in place last quarter that had a lower impact. These include the closure of value doors mainly in the U.S. that were margin eroding,&#8221; he said.
Underscoring the reasons for these declines, Darrell said, &#8220;And the results of these actions and others are that Vans gross margin is up significantly year-over-year.&#8221;

화요일에 셈프라(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SRE#NYSE">SRE</a>)가 4분기 조정 주당순이익(EPS)이 $1.50로 전년 동기 $1.13에서 증가했으나, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43937720/sempra-reports-2024-financial-and-business-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">컨센서스 $1.60</a>을 하회했다고 발표했다. 매출은 $37.58억으로 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">컨센서스 $43.6억</a>을 밑돌았다.
천연가스 매출은 $19.35억에서 $23.4억으로 증가했고, 전기 매출은 $10.03억에서 $10.27억으로 증가했으며, 에너지 관련 사업 매출은 전년의 $5.53억에서 $3.88억으로 감소했다.
배당금: 이사회는 보통주에 대해 주당 $0.645의 분기 배당금을 선언했으며, 2025년 3월 20일 기준 주주에게 2025년 4월 15일에 지급된다. 이는 연간 배당금을 주당 $2.58로 인상하며, 2024년의 $2.48에서 상승한 것이다.
2023년 12월 31일 기준 현금 및 현금성 자산은 $15.7억으로 나타났다.
전망 1: 셈프라는 2025-2029년 동안 약 $560억의 기록적인 5개년 자본 계획을 예상하며, 이는 이전 계획보다 16% 증가한 것으로, 자본의 90% 이상이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">텍사스와 캘리포니아의 규제된 유틸리티 투자</a>에 할당될 예정이다.
셈프라의 회장 겸 CEO 제프리 W. 마틴(Jeffrey W. Martin)은 &#8220;계획된 자본 지출의 절반 이상이 텍사스에 배정되어 있으며, 이는 에너지 그리드를 확장하고 현대화하기 위한 상당한 신규 투자가 필요하다. 이는 셈프라의 2030년 목표인 텍사스 주에서 50% 이상의 수익을 창출하는 것과 일치한다&#8221;라고 말했다.
전망 2: 이 회사는 2025년 EPS 가이던스를 $4.30-$4.70(<a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41771750" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">이전의 $4.90-$5.25에서 하향 조정</a>)로 수정했으며, 이는 컨센서스 $5.15에 비해 최근 규제 문제와 높은 비용 환경을 반영한 것이다.
이 회사는 2026년 EPS 가이던스를 $4.80-$5.30으로 제시했으며, 이는 2025년 가이던스 중간값 대비 12% 증가한 것이다. 추가적으로, 셈프라는 장기 EPS 성장률 전망을 7%에서 9%로 상향 조정하고 있다.
