Company & revenue

About Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp.

Primary reporting period: 2025-12-31 · Research updated Oct 12, 2026. A research update is not a new financial filing.

Who they are

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. operates in the power and utility industries. It owns and operates a portfolio of regulated electric, water distribution and wastewater collection, and natural gas utility systems and transmission operations. As of December 31, 2025, it operated a portfolio of regulated utility systems in the United States, Canada, Bermuda, and Chile, serving approximately 1,272,000 customer connections.

How they make money

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp. operates as a diversified utility company that generates revenue primarily through the provision of regulated electric, water, and natural gas utility services. The company earns income by charging regulated rates to residential, commercial, and industrial customers for the delivery of these essential services across its service territories.

Products & services

Regulated electric distribution, water distribution, wastewater collection, natural gas utility services, and hydroelectric power generation.

Brands & revenue mix

Liberty

The primary operating brand for the company's utility services.

Separate brand revenue is not available in this research.Source

Revenue share is not unit sales or a best-seller ranking. Parent brands and included sub-brands can overlap; do not add overlapping rows.

Product / operating segments

No reconciled product or operating-segment revenue breakdown is available for the current research period. Company-wide revenue remains separate from segment disclosure.

Geographic revenue

No reconciled geographic revenue breakdown was confirmed for the current research period.

Customer types

Customer concentration

No quantified customer-concentration disclosure is available in the current saved research.

Suppliers, materials & equipment

No supplier relationships were confirmed in the sources reviewed. This does not mean the company has no suppliers.

Strengths

  • Diversified portfolio of regulated utility assetsSource

Risks

  • Regulatory and legislative changesSource
  • Operational risks associated with utility infrastructureSource

Financial risk observations and what to check

These are saved observations about business performance, not predictions. Review the company filings alongside the interpretation below. Latest stored financial period end: 2026-06-30.

Total debt is at least one year of revenue

Debt is large relative to the company's recent revenue base. Review maturity dates, borrowing terms and whether available liquidity can support the obligation.

Interest coverage is below 2x

Reported earnings provide limited coverage of interest expense. Review the underlying interest and operating-income figures because weak coverage can increase refinancing and liquidity risk.

Free cash flow is negative

The latest reported period did not generate positive free cash flow. Check whether the cash use reflects development investment, working capital or continuing operating losses.

Cash covers less than 20% of total debt

Cash on hand is small relative to reported debt. Compare unrestricted cash, debt maturities and expected financing needs rather than treating the ratio alone as a default prediction.

Quarterly EPS fell 95.7% versus the same quarter last year.

Review net income and weighted-average shares together. Per-share earnings can change because of operating performance, nonrecurring items or the share denominator.

WSS View

The quick read

The overall Wall Street Score is low across its combined quality, valuation and risk inputs. This can reflect an expensive share price, business weaknesses, or both; check Company Quality and the category breakdown before drawing a conclusion.

At today’s price, the WSS valuation framework currently reads as less attractive based on the available valuation and market data.

The model outlook is currently cautious.

What we like

No strong positive signal is being highlighted from the currently available summary data.

What to watch
  • •High debt risk
  • •Valuation is a weaker part of the current profile
  • •Revenue fundamentals are weak
  • •Debt / balance-sheet profile needs attention

  • •Is AQN's debt load manageable relative to cash generation, interest costs and upcoming maturities?

Momentum & Volatility Signals

Two different market-behavior signals. Momentum measures direction and trend strength. Volatility measures how large and unstable the price moves are, regardless of direction.

Momentum = Where is it going?

A high momentum score means price has been trending upward with confirming short- and medium-term strength. A low score means downward or weakening momentum.

Volatility = How violently is it moving?

A high volatility score means larger, less stable price swings. It can happen while a stock is rising or falling, so high volatility is not automatically bullish or bearish.

Important: the volatility score above is based on realized price volatility. Implied volatility (IV) comes from options prices and represents the market's expected future movement. Wall Street Score will keep IV separate and will only display it when a verified options-chain feed is available.
