The price target hike comes on the heels of Constellation Energy reiterating that it expects its 2026 earnings to come in at between $11 and $12 a share. According to Barclays, the earnings guidance appears conservative as it expects it to track towards $19 per share in 2029.

In addition to earnings growth, Constellation Energy plans $3.9 billion in capital spending in 2026. The company has also raised its share buyback authorization to $5 billion as it moves to meet growing demand for clean electricity in the US. The company is well-positioned to capitalize on strong US power demand after hitting a record high in 2025 due to rapid build-out in data centers for AI and cryptocurrency.
