Ameren Corp. (US0236081024) stock opened at $106.71 on August 28, 2026, with a market cap of $29.54 billion and a 200-day moving average of $110.32. The utility's second-quarter results on July 30, 2026 gave investors a fresh read on earnings power after $1.13 per share beat the $1.08 consensus by $0.05.
Quarterly numbers
Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 came in at $2.09 billion, down 5.8 percent from $2.22 billion a year earlier. Net income was $314 million, compared with $275 million in the prior-year period, while operating income rose to $459 million from $411 million.
Guidance remains a key anchor for the year. Ameren kept FY 2026 EPS guidance at 5.25 to 5.45, and analysts were looking for 5.4 EPS for the full fiscal year, which puts the midpoint slightly above the street view.
What the tape says
The share price of $106.71 sits below the 200-day moving average of $110.32 and under the fifty-day average of $110.88. That gap leaves the stock trading at a discount to both trend lines even after the post-earnings update.
Return on equity stood at 10.95 percent and the net margin was 17.86 percent in the latest quarterly disclosure. For utility investors, that mix of lower revenue, higher profit, and steady full-year guidance is the main data point to watch into late August.
More on Ameren stock
Ameren's regulated utility base still drives the story, with electric and gas operations across Missouri and Illinois providing the backdrop for the quarter's $2.09 billion revenue run rate. The company also kept its full-year EPS range intact after the July 30 report, which matters more than one quarter of softer sales.
