ClearBridge Investments Large Cap Value Dmitry Khaykin, Deepon Nag | “Preference for WEC Energy in the utilities sector, which has 80% of its assets exposed to some of the most constructive jurisdictions in the country (such as Wisconsin and areas covered by FERC) as well as upside to the data center demand, led us to add to our holding, funding the increase with a trim to Sempra and an exit of Edison International. BSD Analysis: WEC Energy Group enters 2026 with a massive $28 billion five-year capital expenditure plan, the largest in its history, aimed at modernizing the grid to support surging data center demand. The investment case is particularly strong due to the company's relationship with Microsoft, which is driving a projected economic load growth of 1,800 MW in its core Wisconsin service territory. For 2026, the company is targeting a dividend increase of approximately 7%, well above the utility industry average, supported by a projected rate base growth of nearly 9%. While recent regulatory delays in Illinois have weighed on short-term sentiment, the stock is currently viewed as 13% undervalued against its intrinsic fair value. Management's pivot toward renewable energy and battery storage is expected to enhance margins through federal tax credits and a higher regulated return on investment. For 2026, WEC offers a rare combination of utility stability and high-growth potential driven by the energy-intensive AI infrastructure build-out.” | BULL | Q3 2025 Sep 30, 2025 | View Pitch |
