Top 10 Utilities stocks in the US, ranked by X-Ray score

30 companies are ranked; Edison International leads. Of the ten shown, our fair-value models label 3 undervalued, 7 fair and 0 overvalued.

Utilities carry heavy debt by design and many earn returns set by regulators, so growth scores are usually modest and the financial-health lens ranks them only against other utilities. With growth muted, the order is often decided by the other lenses.

How this list is ranked
  • Universe. S&P 500 companies that S&P Dow Jones Indices places in the Utilities sector, scored from SEC filings with confidence High or Medium.
  • Score. The X-Ray score (0 to 100) blends valuation, growth, profitability, financial health and dividends, with each lens ranked within the sector.
  • Order. Sorted by X-Ray score; ties go to the higher financial-health score.
  • Data. Scores come from company filings with the SEC and our own fair-value models. Every figure is our own calculation, dated 22 Oct 2026.
  • Limits. Scores describe the past and the present, not the future. A company with less history gets a lower confidence label. Different rules give a different order, which is why the rules are printed here.

Why a ranking by stated rules and not a "best" label: the order changes with the rules, so the rules are published next to the list. See also how the X-Ray Score works.
