Springfield MA regulated New England utility (NYSE: ES) ~$11.7B FY2024 revenue; offshore wind exit $1.1B to GIP, 4.4M customers CT/MA/NH, refocused regulated utility competing with Avangrid and National Grid.
Eversource Energy is a Springfield, Massachusetts-based regulated electric and natural gas utility — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: ES) as an S&P 500 Utilities component — serving approximately 4.4 million customers across Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire through electric distribution, transmission, and natural gas distribution subsidiaries including Connecticut Light and Power (CL&P), NSTAR Electric (Massachusetts), Public Service of New Hampshire (PSNH), and Yankee Gas through approximately 9,000 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Eversource reported revenues of approximately $11.7 billion, generating regulated earnings while executing a major strategic pivot: the sale of Eversource's offshore wind equity interests — South Fork Wind (132 MW, operational), Revolution Wind (704 MW, construction), and Sunrise Wind (924 MW, development) — to Global Infrastructure Partners for $1.1 billion, exiting the offshore wind development business entirely to refocus capital on the core New England regulated utility operations. CEO Joe Nolan's strategy of offshore wind exit reflects the economics reality of inflation-driven construction cost increases that made Revolution Wind and Sunrise Wind uneconomic at previously contracted power purchase agreement prices — fixed-price PPAs signed at $80-100/MWh before the 2022 inflation surge became deeply underwater when offshore wind construction costs escalated to $150-200+/MWh equivalent. The offshore wind exit releases $1.5+ billion in committed capital and eliminates the development risk that had pressured Eversource's investment-grade credit ratings.
Richmond VA tobacco and nicotine (NYSE: MO) ~$9.7B net revenue FY2024; Marlboro 40%+ US cigarette share, on! oral pouch competing with Zyn, 50%+ operating margins, ABI stake, competing with Reynolds/BAT.
Altria Group, Inc. is a Richmond, Virginia-based tobacco and nicotine company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: MO) as an S&P 500 Consumer Staples component — manufacturing and selling cigarettes (Marlboro — the best-selling cigarette brand in the United States), smokeless tobacco (Copenhagen, Skoal, Red Seal, Husky chewing tobacco/moist snuff brands), oral nicotine pouches (on! brand), and maintaining a 10.7% ownership stake in Anheuser-Busch InBev (SABMiller acquisition consideration shares) and a 35% stake in JUUL Labs (vaping — original $12.8B investment written down to minimal value following JUUL's regulatory and litigation difficulties) through approximately 5,500 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Altria reported revenues of approximately $20.6 billion (net revenues after excise taxes approximately $9.7 billion), with the cigarette segment (Marlboro generating 40%+ US cigarette market share) contributing the majority of operating income at 50%+ adjusted operating margins — the highest margins in the consumer staples sector reflecting cigarettes' inelastic demand and regulated market structure. CEO Billy Gifford has pivoted Altria's strategy from cigarettes toward smoke-free nicotine products: the on! oral nicotine pouch (acquired full ownership of Helix Innovations in 2023, rebranding as on! to compete with Swedish Match Zyn, the dominant US oral nicotine pouch brand) represents Altria's primary nicotine product diversification vehicle as cigarette volume declines 7-8% annually through consumer quit rates and secular health awareness trends.
