According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for AEP is 105.83 USD with a low forecast of 95.00 USD and a high forecast of 114.00 USD.

$107 → $111
2025-03-26
Reason
BMO Capital raised the firm's price target on American Electric to $111 from $107 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm views the company's equity raise positively as it removes the equity/credit overhang on the stock, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Given the accretion from its transmission sale, the management also has not changed its Q4 long-term financial outlook, BMO added.

$108 → $100
2025-01-10
Reason
BMO Capital lowered the firm's price target on American Electric to $100 from $108 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company has announced a partnership with KKR and PSP to sell a 19.9% stake in its Ohio/ Indiana & Michigan Transcos for $2.82B, and the proceeds of the sale were "significantly higher than expectations", though the firm's reduced price target reflects a mark-to-market adjustment, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Downgrades
$109 → $102
2024-12-12
Reason
JPMorgan downgraded American Electric (AEP) to Neutral from Overweight with a price target of $102, down from $109. The company's new CEO Bill Fehrman has introduced a number of key organizational changes that are encouraging, but the transition likely takes time, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm appreciates American Electric's increasing regulated generation opportunity, but says it remains a majority wires company. JPMorgan sees data center and onshoring load growth trends providing more upside to those "with more generation torque," such as Xcel Energy (XEL). As as result, the firm sees stronger risk/reward propositions elsewhere in its coverage.

Downgrades
$105 → $102
2024-12-12
Reason
Scotiabank analyst Andrew Weisel downgraded American Electric to Sector Perform from Outperform with a price target of $102, down from $105. The theme of 2025 will be the robust outlook for demand for electricity, which the firm expects to be "a rising tide that will lift all boats," but despite strong fundamentals, the firm doesn't see an attractive near-term outlook for utility stocks, the analyst tells investors in a group 2025 outlook note. Though noting the firm increased price targets by about 6% on average and sees total returns of about 14%, the analyst is "increasingly cautious on the group" and adjusted several ratings to better reflect updated views on regulatory risks.
BMO Capital
James Thalacker
Buy
Maintains
$104 → $108
2024-12-02
Reason
BMO Capital raised the firm's price target on American Electric to $108 from $104 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm is citing the expected upside to its more conservative outlook from higher load growth relative to its more conservative assumptions, potential for alternative financing solutions to moderate equity dilution, and potential ROE improvement from more constructive regulatory outcomes, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

$100 → $99

2024-11-22
Reason
