BofA Securities analyst Ross Fowler reinstated coverage on four US utilities in the Great Plains.
The analyst reinstated the Buy rating at Evergy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVRG#NASDAQ">EVRG</a>) and MDU Resources Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MDU#NYSE">MDU</a>).
Meanwhile, Fowler reinstated the Neutral rating on OGE Energy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OGE#NYSE">OGE</a>) and Underperform rating on Black Hills Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BKH#NYSE">BKH</a>).
EVRG: The analyst reinstated Buy rating with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/evrg/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target at $66</a>. The analyst says that despite trading at a 10% discount compared to peers on a 2026E P/E basis, the improving Kansas regulatory environment, which supports higher rate base growth, appears undervalued.
The analyst estimates FY24, FY25 and FY26E EPS at $3.86, $4.09 and $4.30, respectively, all above consensus.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Fowler writes that consensus EPS estimates for FY26 and FY27 remain largely unchanged despite the benefits from House Bill 2527.
MDU: The analyst reinstated Buy rating with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/mdu/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $28</a>. Fowler believes the current 15% discount to the electric utility peer group is unjustified, considering MDU&#8217;s ongoing transition to a pure-play regulated utility and pipeline operator, along with its projected 6-8% EPS growth rate through the planning period.
Although the company&#8217;s multi-jurisdictional presence may lead to some delays in recovery, the analyst expects sustained support for earned ROEs at the electric utility, driven by a strong pipeline of data center customer connections in areas experiencing transmission congestion.

OGE: The analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/oge/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reinstated Neutral rating with a $40 price target</a>. While the analyst values OGE&#8217;s execution and growth potential from data center and crypto-mining load, the challenging regulatory environment in Oklahoma and significant capital investments needed for resource adequacy present risks.
Fowler expects EPS estimates of $2.14, $2.28, and $2.43 for FY24, FY25, and FY26, respectively, in line with consensus estimates.
BKH: The analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bkh/analyst-ratings">reinstated Underperform rating with a $59 price target</a>. The analyst says that BKH&#8217;s electric utility operations are poised for growth with rising residential, commercial, and data center load, which currently contributes 5% to EPS and is expected to exceed 10% by 2028.
Fowler expects rate base expansion opportunities in South Dakota and Colorado to support a 7%+ CAGR. However, $1.6 billion in debt maturities from 2023 to 2028, with a 3.03% average interest rate, could create a ~$0.50 EPS headwind, exacerbating risks given BKH&#8217;s already low 4-6% target EPS CAGR, adds the analyst.
Fowler anticipates EPS estimates of $3.88, $4.13, and $4.35 for FY24, FY25, and FY26, below the consensus estimates of $3.92, $4.14, and $4.40, respectively.

A heat wave is set to sweep across several regions of the United States as 2024 shapes up to be one of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39583371/july-fourth-heat-california-faces-blackout-and-fire-risks-this-week-during-triple-digit-temperat">hottest years on record</a>.
The Forecast: Nearly 150 million Americans are under heat warnings or watches on Thursday, <a href="https://www.weather.gov/images/crh/dhs/wwa_population.png">per</a> the National Weather Service.
<a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/08/01/heat-wave-intensifies-worsening-wildfires">According</a> to Axios, temperatures will exceed 110 degrees in several areas of the country until Aug. 7 — Texas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Kansas, North and South Dakota, Eastern Washington, inland California and Western Missouri.
There are also excessive heat warnings in regions of Oregon, Montana, Arkansas, Illinois, Mississippi and Tennessee.
The <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/07/25/wildfires-california-canada-evacuations-jasper">ongoing</a> Park Fire in California is the fifth-largest forest fire in the state&#8217;s history. The fire&#8217;s origin is <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/07/25/wildfires-california-canada-evacuations-jasper">attributed</a> to extreme heat and dry weather conditions.
The scorching hot temperatures are not just a public health risk. It will also affect several companies with operations in the U.S.
Market Implications: The earth&#8217;s rising temperatures have drastically affected the energy industry, as heat causes outages and operational strain. The use of electricity tends to go up — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/07/40043897/household-energy-bills-rose-over-50-in-3-states-over-past-5-years-but-remained-stable-in-this-region">along with prices</a> — during heat waves as residents stay inside and use air conditioning. Here are a few companies that will invariably be affected:
<ul>
<li>Black Hills Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BKH#NYSE">BKH</a>) is a large utility company operating in Nebraska, Kansas and Arkansas — three of the most affected states this week.</li>
<li>OGE Energy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OGE#NYSE">OGE</a>) is the largest utilities provider in Oklahoma.</li>
<li>Evergy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVRG#NASDAQ">EVRG</a>) is the largest electricity provider in Kansas.</li>
<li>PG&amp;E Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PCG#NYSE">PCG</a>) operates in California and has taken several wildfire-related losses in the past decade.</li>
</ul>
Home improvement retailers Lowe&#8217;s Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) and Home Depot Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) may see increased demand for air conditioning units. Walmart Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) also sells air conditioners. 
Generac Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNRC#NYSE">GNRC</a>) manufactures generators. Home and industrial generators typically see increased demand following extreme weather events.
The heatwave will also affect the agriculture and food industries:
<ul>
<li>Meat producer Tyson Foods Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSN#NYSE">TSN</a>) has operational centers in several affected states.</li>
<li>There may be an increase in demand for irrigation equipment and heat-resistant machinery manufactured by Deere &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>) and Agco Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AGCO#NYSE">AGCO</a>)</li>
<li>Corteva Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTVA#NYSE">CTVA</a>) sells crop protection products that help farmers manage drought-induced crop loss.</li>
