AES Corp. stock holds near its yearly high

AES Corp. stock closed at USD 14.83 on the NYSE on September 18, 2026, down 0.13 percent from the previous close. The price was 16 percent below the 52-week high of USD 17.65, giving the utility a market value of USD 10.58 billion.

Revenue reaches USD 3.42 billion

The latest reported operating snapshot covers the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. Revenue reached USD 3.42 billion, while normalized earnings per share came in at USD 0.44 against an estimate of USD 0.47, a shortfall of USD 0.03, according to Yahoo Finance on September 21, 2026.

The comparison matters because the revenue figure and earnings figure point in different directions for the same Q2 FY2026 period. Trailing twelve-month revenue stood at USD 13.05 billion, while trailing twelve-month earnings per share were USD 2.67, according to Yahoo Finance on September 21, 2026.

Stock remains below 52-week high

AES has risen 13.6 percent over the past 52 weeks and gained 1.4 percent over the past three months, according to Barchart on September 22, 2026. The stock therefore outperformed the State Street Utilities Select Sector SPDR ETF, which declined 9.2 percent over the same three-month period.

The valuation picture is restrained by the earnings multiple. Yahoo Finance listed a trailing price-to-earnings ratio of 5.55 and a forward dividend of USD 0.70, equivalent to a 4.75 percent indicated yield, as of September 18, 2026. Its one-year target estimate was USD 15.00, only USD 0.17 above the September 18 closing price.
