Exelon to Release Q3 Earnings: What's in the Cards for the Stock?

Exelon Corporation EXC is scheduled to release third-quarter 2025 results on Nov. 4, before market open. The company delivered an earnings surprise of 5.41% in the last reported quarter.

Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.

Factors That Might Have Impacted EXC’s Q3 Earnings

Exelon’s third-quarter earnings are likely to have continued to benefit from reduced volumetric risks, with nearly 78% of its distribution revenues being decoupled.

Exelon’s third-quarter earnings are expected to have gained from new electric transmission rates effective from June 1, 2025. The company may have further benefited from its extensive presence across densely populated urban areas and continued emphasis on disciplined cost management.

Exelon’s quarterly earnings are expected to have gained from higher demand stemming from data center growth, continued energy efficiency programs, electric vehicle adoption and strong economic growth across its service territories.

However, severe storms and high winds in August caused widespread power outages for customers across northern Illinois. The company, with its efficient team, restored the majority of power outages. Power restoration and repair costs might have increased overall expenses.

EXC’s Q3 Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at 76 cents per share, which implies a year-over-year rise of 7%.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pinned at $6.35 billion, indicating an increase of 3.2% from the year-ago reported number.
