Evergy stock is anchored by Q2 2026 GAAP net income of USD 215.0 million, or USD 0.91 per diluted share, compared with USD 171.3 million, or USD 0.74, a year earlier. The result gives the regulated utility a stronger earnings base as it serves customers across Kansas and Missouri.
Q2 profit reaches USD 215.0 million
According to StockTitan on August 6, 2026, second-quarter GAAP net income rose from USD 171.3 million to USD 215.0 million, an increase of 25.54 percent. Adjusted earnings reached USD 208.5 million, or USD 0.88 per share, versus USD 191.1 million, or USD 0.82 per share, in Q2 2025.
Revenue totaled USD 1.50 billion in Q2 2026, while adjusted EPS exceeded the USD 0.81 consensus cited by MarketBeat on September 24, 2026. The comparison matters because the earnings improvement came with both higher revenue and stronger adjusted profitability.
Guidance stays at USD 4.14-4.34
Evergy reaffirmed adjusted EPS guidance of USD 4.14-4.34 for fiscal year 2026, according to StockTitan. Management also retained its long-term adjusted EPS growth target of 6 percent to 8 percent or more through 2030, with growth above 8 percent projected from 2028 through 2030.
Financing remains part of the investment case. Evergy reported the issuance of USD 350.0 million of 5.60 percent First Mortgage Bonds due in 2034 on September 16, 2026, adding capital for a business that requires sustained infrastructure spending.
