AES Corporation has made significant strides in innovation and performance. The company recently launched its
first artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled solar installation robot, marking a substantial shift in automating renewable energy installations. The AI-powered robots will play an instrumental role in installing solar farms that power Amazon data centers. AES reported a strong Q2 performance, with profits exceeding expectations, and the company also managed to top Q2 EPS by 1c, reaffirming its guidance, despite missing the estimated Q2 EPS by 11c. Nevertheless, AES shares have underperformed compared to competitors, casting a shadow over its otherwise robust achievements. Simultaneously, the corporation has declared positive financial results in Q1, and AI technology was a significant factor.
Strategic partnerships with AI funds have been crucial, indicating the acceleration of AI-driven energy solutions. AES also reported the completion of
3.5 GW of renewables in 2023 and announced the sale of its equity interest in AES Brasil for approximately
$640 million. Concerns arise, however, as AES's offering of Series A Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock relating to 2021 Equity Units met with lawsuits over 'weaponized' advance notice bylaws. Notwithstanding, overall Q2 2024 earnings and EPS of $0.27 beat estimates.
