The Company is reaffirming its 7% to 9% annualized growth rate target through 2025, from a base year of 2020. The Company is initiating 2023 guidance for Adjusted EPS of $1.65 to $1.75.
Positive Outlook
- Growth in 2023 is expected to be primarily driven by 3.4 GW of new renewables expected to come online.
- Reaffirming 7% to 9% annualized growth target through 2025
Challenges Ahead
- This growth is expected to be partially offset by lower margins from the Company's LNG business, due to normalization of LNG prices and the roll-off of a gas supply contract
- Lower contract margins in Chile
- Higher interest expense in Colombia
- This guidance also incorporates the impact of 0.6 GW of new renewables likely coming online in 2024, instead of 2023.
