Chesapeake Utilities Corporation announced a net income of $59.3 million and earnings per share (EPS) of $2.47 for Q1 2026, marking an 11.8% EPS increase from the previous year. The growth was fueled by regulatory initiatives, infrastructure programs, natural gas organic growth, transmission expansions, and higher customer consumption due to colder weather. The company invested $121.9 million in capital during the quarter and filed for a general rate increase with the Florida Public Service Commission. Chesapeake reaffirmed its 2026 capital expenditure guidance of $450-$500 million and its 2028 EPS target of $7.75-$8.00 per share, signaling confidence in continued growth and operational transformation.
