Regulated Rate Resilience: A Tale of Two Earnings Reports Consolidated Edison's latest quarterly earnings reveal a remarkable resilience in its regulated rate business model, but beneath the surface, the story is far more nuanced.
The company's second quarter net income jumped 25% year over year to $308 million, driven largely by higher electric and gas rate bases at CECONY, the main New York utility business.
This significant uptick in earnings was not entirely surprising, given the regulated nature of Con Edison's operations.
