NEWARK, N.J. (AP) Public Service Enterprise Group Inc. on Wednesday reaffirmed its 2009 profit guidance of $3 to $3.25 per share.
Ralph Izzo, PSEG's chairman, president and chief executive, said in a statement that the company has a strong balance sheet with a greatly reduced risk profile positioned for organic growth opportunities. He did not elaborate in the statement. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters, on average, were expecting a profit of $3.07 per share this year. In February, PSEG lowered an earlier earnings forecast of $3.05 to $3.35 per share for the year, saying the outlook for the economy remains weak. However, the Newark, N.J.-based company remained in range of Wall Street's expectations. PSEG's said last month its fourth-quarter profit rose 4 percent as stronger revenue from its utility segment offset a decline in its energy business. PSEG shares, which closed at $26.33 on Tuesday, have traded between $22.09 and $47.50 during the past 52 weeks.- Loading Comments...
