NextEra Energy
NEE NYSE Multi-Utilities Financials FY2016βFY2025
NextEra Energy's revenue rose 9.8% to $25.8 billion in fiscal 2025. Its operating margin was 32.1%, up from 31.8% a year earlier. It paid out $4.7 billion in dividends and buybacks. The diluted share count rose 0.6%.
About these figures. NextEra Energy tags its capital expenditure with its own label, which the SEC's structured data leaves out, so capital spending and free cash flow are left blank. Share counts and per-share figures for earlier years are restated for a stock split (4-for-1), so every year is on today's share basis.
