Description: PNW Pinnacle West Capital October 31, 2025

Pinnacle West Capital Corp. (NYSE:PNW) operates through its subsidiary Arizona Public Service (APS) to deliver retail and wholesale electricity across Arizona. The utility’s asset base spans nuclear, natural-gas, oil, coal and solar generation, plus an integrated transmission and distribution network of overhead and underground lines, substations, and emerging energy-storage facilities. Established in 1985 and headquartered in Phoenix, the firm is classified under the GICS sub-industry “Electric Utilities.”

Key performance indicators from the most recent fiscal year show total revenue of roughly $2.5 billion, adjusted earnings per share of $2.50 and a net income of about $500 million, reflecting a regulated earnings growth of ~5 % YoY. The company carries approximately $1.5 billion of long-term debt, yielding an interest-coverage ratio near 4.5×, while Arizona’s population-driven electricity demand is expanding at ~1 % annually. A material sector driver is the state’s Renewable Portfolio Standard, which mandates that utilities source roughly 30 % of electricity from solar and other renewables by 2030, prompting APS to accelerate its solar-plus-storage deployments.
