Description: MGEE MGE Energy November 08, 2025

MGE Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: MGEE) is a Wisconsin-based public-utility holding company that serves roughly 167,000 electric customers through a mix of regulated and non-regulated operations. Its business spans regulated electric and gas distribution, non-regulated generation, and transmission-asset investments, with a generation portfolio that includes coal, natural-gas, solar, wind and battery storage.

As of 31 Dec 2024 the firm owned 825 mi of overhead and 1,359 mi of underground electric distribution lines, 48 substations totaling 1.2 million kVA, and 3,092 mi of gas-distribution mains. In 2023 MGEE reported $1.2 bn of total revenue, an operating margin of 7.3 %, and a dividend yield of ~2.8 %, while its regulated rate base grew 4 % YoY, reflecting ongoing capital-intensive upgrades to meet state renewable-energy standards.

Key sector drivers include the Midwest’s aggressive Renewable Portfolio Standards, which are prompting MGEE to accelerate its solar-plus-storage projects, and the broader utility trend of decarbonization that pressures coal-based assets. The company’s debt-to-EBITDA ratio sits near 3.2×, indicating moderate leverage but also highlighting the importance of stable cash flows from regulated rate-base earnings to fund future capex.
