The Southern Company (SO) has been experiencing a positive financial trajectory with its shares potentially being 31% above intrinsic value. Hunton Andrews Kurth is advising on SO's plan to sell up to 50 million shares, while the company also announced an increase in its dividend for the 23rd consecutive year. There are high expectations around SO's financial performance and the company has recently been favored by institutional owners. Quarterly dividends, increased earnings estimates, and beating earning expectations add to this bullish outlook. Furthermore, SO is also actively focused on equity, with its annual Moving to Equity Report for 2023. Despite a slight revenue miss, the company has kept investors' faith with lower costs, lower operating expenses and significant holdings from Dimensional Fund Advisors. The possible addition of new nuclear plants, electric vehicle initiatives, and sustainable practices also underscore this positive trend. Additionally, the company recently achieved initial criticality at its nuclear plant. However, there are instances of the company's stock underperforming, and some sell-offs from key insiders. This could potentially be a cause for concern in the future.
