Edison InternationalL Can 5% To 7% Growth Hold Amid Rising Wildfire Exposure?

Edison International reported full-year 2025 core earnings per share (EPS) of $6.55, exceeding the high end of its guidance range and marking the successful achievement of its long-term core EPS growth target set in 2021. This performance reflects disciplined execution, cost management, operational efficiency, and capital deployment. The company highlighted Southern California Edison’s (SCE) ongoing efforts in wildfire risk reduction, with over 7,000 miles of covered conductor installed in high fire-risk areas and fast-curve settings on 93% of distribution circuits in these regions, emphasizing its focus on safety and reliability. SCE also announced residential customer rate decreases earlier in the year, reinforcing its attention to affordability despite investing more than $12 billion in customer safety and reliability over two years. Regulatory clarity improved in 2025 with key proceedings concluded, enhancing visibility into capital plans and revenue requirements through the next decade.
