Evergy (EVRG): Assessing Valuation After a Recent Share Price Pullback and Strong Multi‑Year Returns

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

Evergy (EVRG) has quietly pulled back about 5% over the past month even though the stock is still up roughly 23% over the past year, which sets up an interesting valuation check.

See our latest analysis for Evergy.

With the share price now around $73.37, that recent 30 day share price pullback sits against a much stronger year to date gain and a solid multi year total shareholder return profile. This suggests momentum has cooled a bit, but the longer term story is still intact.

If Evergy’s steadier utilities profile has you thinking about where growth might be stronger, this could be a good moment to explore fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.

So with a solid multi year track record, healthy recent earnings growth and a share price still below Wall Street targets, is Evergy quietly offering upside here, or is the market already pricing in the next leg of growth?

Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 13% Undervalued

With Evergy last closing at $73.37 against a most popular narrative fair value near $84.32, the story leans toward upside while hinging on specific long term assumptions.

Robust economic development pipeline (15+ GW), with advanced stages of customer agreements and significant financial commitments from large users, indicates continued customer and volume growth, which will expand rate base and drive above average rate base and EPS growth over time.

Read the complete narrative.

Want to see how those growth commitments turn into a double digit earnings path and a premium future multiple for a regulated utility? The narrative explains how modest revenue acceleration, margin lift, and a lower forward valuation multiple can still be combined to reach that higher fair value.

Result: Fair Value of $84.32 (UNDERVALUED)

However, that upside case still hinges on Evergy executing its capital plan smoothly and large customers ramping as expected, without regulatory pushback capping returns.

Another Angle On Value

Our SWS DCF model is less generous than the upbeat narrative, pointing to a fair value near $63.89 versus today’s $73.37 price. This implies Evergy looks overvalued on cash flows and leaves less margin for regulatory or project surprises.
