CenterPoint Energy's regulated utilities have significant growth investment opportunities. We expect the company to invest $36 billion over the next five years, supporting our assumption that management can achieve the high end of its 7%-9% annual earnings growth target.
CenterPoint is a pure-play regulated electric and gas utility with above-average long-term growth potential and constructive regulatory environments.
Concerns over Houston Electric's response to Hurricane Beryl have heightened regulatory and political risk.
