Fed Hikes Rates 25 Basis Points, First Increase Since 2023

Federal Reserve chair Kevin Warsh announced a 25 basis point benchmark interest rate hike, taking the funds rate to 3.75% to 4.00%, the first rate increase since 2023, with Warsh indicating another round of rate hikes before the end of 2026. The Federal Open Market Committee voted 12-0 to raise the key interest rate, citing elevated inflation, the ongoing Middle East crisis and resulting rise in oil prices, a stable U.S. labor market and solid economic activity supported by resilient consumer spending. Higher borrowing costs can be a headwind for the capital-intensive utilities sector, which relies heavily on external financing to fund infrastructure investments, pressuring margins and potentially constraining dividend payouts. Among utilities better positioned to withstand higher rates, Exelon Corporation, PG&E Corporation and Centuri Holdings, Inc. each carry a VGM Score of either A or B and a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold). Exelon plans to invest $41.7 billion over 2026-2029, PG&E plans to invest $12.4 billion in 2026 and $73 billion over the 2026-2030 period, and Centuri plans to invest $75-$90 million in 2026.

Centuri Holdings Reports Record Revenue and Raises 2026 Guidance

Centuri Holdings delivered record quarterly revenue of $962 million, a 33% increase year-over-year, and raised its full-year 2026 guidance. The company now forecasts base revenue of $3.5 billion to $3.7 billion and free cash flow exceeding $75 million, a 25% improvement over initial expectations. Its backlog reached approximately $6.4 billion, up 21% year-over-year, while the opportunity pipeline surged to $16 billion, up 23% from the first quarter. The acquisition of JJ White is expected to add over $20 million in annualized gross profit, and the company secured its largest data center project to date, a $125 million award. However, base gross profit margin declined to 7.9% in the second quarter from 8.9% last year, partly due to elevated fuel costs and capacity investments.
