Entergy Reports Second-Quarter Profit Growth
Driven by robust performance across its utility division, Entergy posted a net income of $483 million for the second quarter, marking a modest increase over the $468 million recorded during the same period last year.
Growth within the utility segment provided the primary lift for the quarterly results, though these gains were partially tempered by losses in the Parent & Other segment. Looking ahead, the company reaffirmed its full-year guidance, projecting adjusted earnings per share in the range of $4.25 to $4.45.
