Executive summary

NextEra Energy is a Florida-based energy company with two main businesses. Florida Power & Light is a regulated electric utility serving millions of customers in Florida, and NextEra Energy Resources develops, owns and operates wind, solar, battery storage and natural gas generation across North America, supplying power under long-term contracts.

Revenue comes from regulated electricity charges in Florida and from contracted power supplied by its generation business. It totals $26.0 billion over the last twelve months, with growth of 3.9% a year across three years. The operating margin is 31.7%, and the business earns a profit of 5% on the capital invested in it. NextEra carries net debt of 6.7 times EBITDA, and the dividend yield is 3.1%.

StocksXray gives Nextera Energy Inc an X-Ray Score of 36 out of 100 (medium confidence), ahead of 10% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is dividends (66) and its weakest is valuation (8).

Our fair value blend is $50.79 (range $50.79 to $59.58). At $79.80 the stock trades 57% above that blend, so the label is "Overvalued" with high model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
