FirstEnergy Corp (FE) has recently received a
$50 million smart grid grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, underlining its strength in this growing sector. Its stock has outperformed competitors on multiple occasions, buoyed by
strong institutional backing which constitutes
84-85% of its ownership. FirstEnergy continues to impress with its social recognition, named a
Military Friendly Company for the ninth time.
Its proactive strategies involve moving power lines underground and facilitating better
electric service reliability in West Virginia. Several investment groups have shown interest in FirstEnergy, from Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Group selling a huge amount of shares to Entropy Technologies investing $762k and the Los Angeles Capital Management possessing $2.99 million holdings.
Recent activities include
power restoration efforts post-Hurricane Helene and the announcement of
First Quarter 2024 financial results. The declaration of a
common stock dividend and the heavy domination by institutional owners underlines its financial robustness. The introduction of a
New Solar Site and ongoing
work on smart grids shows its commitment to technological advancements and sustainability. However, FE has missed some Q3 earnings which may need to be addressed. Major strides include tree-planting initiatives and using technology to reduce tree-related power outages.
