UGI ( (UGI) ) just unveiled an announcement.
UGI Corporation reported first-quarter fiscal 2026 results on February 4, 2026, posting GAAP diluted EPS of $1.34 and adjusted diluted EPS of $1.26, both down from the prior year, while reportable segments EBIT rose 5% to $441 million. The quarter was marked by strong performance in its natural gas utilities, buoyed by colder weather and a prior Pennsylvania gas base rate case, and by operational improvements in its global LPG businesses that helped offset the impact of ongoing LPG divestitures; since fiscal 2025, the company has agreed to sell LPG operations in seven European countries for about $215 million in cash proceeds, is seeking significant gas distribution rate increases in Pennsylvania and West Virginia to fund infrastructure upgrades, and is benefiting from a Moody’s outlook upgrade for AmeriGas, underscoring management’s push for operational excellence, balance sheet support and long-term value creation for shareholders and customers.
The most recent analyst rating on (UGI) stock is a Buy with a $42.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on UGI stock, see the UGI Stock Forecast page.
