🟡 HOLD — Hold; weak growth and interest rate sensitivity limit upside, though the dividend and regulated business provide stability.

Public Service Enterprise Group (PSEG) is a regulated utility in the United States that generates and distributes electricity and natural gas in New Jersey, with a business model based on regulated rates and power generation assets. PSEG shows acceptable financial health (6.21) but with high leverage (ND/EBITDA 5.49) and negative growth (revenue -8.9%, earnings -42.7%), which hurts its appeal; the 4.0% dividend provides some support.

OVERALL SCORE: 5.5/10

Context and risks

Regulated utility with high sensitivity to interest rates: the rise in the 10-year to 5.17% makes financing more expensive and reduces the present value of long-duration cash flows. Additionally, its debt/EBITDA ratio of 5.49 and debt/equity of 142.41 amplify the impact.
