NEUTRAL IMPACT
Consolidated Edison has received mixed analyst ratings with a slight increase in the average price target to $87.58. Despite a revenue decline, the company shows strong profitability and financial health.
The mixed analyst ratings and slight increase in the average price target suggest a cautious but not pessimistic outlook for ED. The company's strong profitability metrics, such as net margin, ROE, and ROA, alongside a prudent debt management strategy, may buffer the negative impact of the revenue decline on the stock price in the short term. However, the overall cautious stance of analysts and the revenue decline could limit significant upside potential.
