Micron Issues Impressive Outlook
Image Source: TradingView. Micron’s guidance for the second fiscal quarter of 2026 was impressive. Revenue is expected at $18.7 billion +/- $400 million on a non-GAAP gross margin of 68% +/- 1.0%. Diluted earnings per share is targeted at $8.42 +/- $0.20. Consensus estimates were calling for $14.3 billion in revenue and adjusted earnings per share of $4.78. We liked Micron’s outlook, but we’re already pretty tech heavy in the newsletter portfolios to add the company.

Verizon Targets $19.5-$20.5 Billion in Free Cash Flow for 2025
Image Source: TradingView. Verizon’s total unsecured debt as of the end of the third quarter was $119.7 billion, resulting in a ratio of unsecured debt to consolidated net income (LTM) of 5.9 times. Its net unsecured debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA ratio was 2.2 times. Though Verizon is a strong free cash flow generator, competition remains fierce with AT&T and T-Mobile, and its debt load is not something that we can get comfortable with. Shares yield 6.8% at the time of this writing.

UPS’ Dividend Remains on Shaky Ground
Image Source: UPS. Looking to the fourth quarter of 2025, on a consolidated basis, UPS expects revenue to be approximately $24.0 billion on a non-GAAP adjusted operating margin between 11.0%-11.5%. The company reaffirmed a variety of other items, expecting capital expenditures of approximately $2.5 billion, dividend payments of around $5.5 billion, an effective tax rate of approximately 23.75%, $1.4 billion in pension contributions (of which $1.3 billion have been made), and share repurchases of ~$1.0 billion, which have been completed. For the nine months ended September 30, free cash flow was $2.74 billion. With a Dividend Cushion ratio well below parity, we remain cautious on UPS’ dividend payout. Shares yield 6.5% at the time of this writing.

Realty Income Raises Investment Volume Guidance for 2025
Image Source: TradingView. Realty Income's dividend payments represented 74.7% of its diluted AFFO per share of $1.08 during the three months ended September 30. The REIT revised its AFFO per share guidance for 2025 to the range of $4.25-$4.27 from $4.24-$4.28 previously, while investment volume is now targeted at approximately $5.5 billion, up from approximately $5 billion previously. We like Realty Income’s dividend coverage, but don’t include shares in the High Yield Dividend Newsletter portfolio, as we think existing positions offer better risk/reward potential. Shares yield 5.6% at the time of this writing.

Oracle Has Turned Into a Net Debt Heavy, Free Cash Flow Burning Enterprise
Image Source: TradingView. Oracle ended the fiscal second quarter with $19.8 billion in cash and marketable securities and $108.1 billion in notes payable and other borrowings. For the six months ended November 30, cash flow from operations was $10.2 billion, while capital expenditures were $20.5 billion, resulting in meaningfully negative free cash flow. For the tailing twelve months ended in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, cash flow from operations was $22.3 billion, while capital expenditures were $35.5 billion, resulting in negative free cash flow of $13.2 billion. On the call, management noted that its fiscal 2026 revenue expectations of $67 billion remains unchanged, but that capital spending will be about $15 billion higher than it forecasted at the end of the first quarter. Since Oracle is now a net-debt heavy, free cash flow burning enterprise, we now view shares as a source of cash in the newsletter portfolios.

Macy’s Raises Outlook for 2025
Image Source: TradingView. Macy’s revised its 2025 guidance, raising its net sales and adjusted diluted earnings per share targets. Its updated guidance reflects a consumer that is more “choiceful” in the fourth quarter and that current tariffs remain in place. Net sales for 2025 are targeted in the range of $21.475-$21.625 billion, up from $21.15-$21.45 billion previously. Go-forward comparable O+L+M sales change is now expected to be flat to up 1% versus down 1.5% to flat previously. Core adjusted EBITDA margin is targeted in the range of 7.5%-7.7% compared to 7.0%-7.5% previously. Adjusted earnings per share for the year is expected in the range of $2.00-$2.20, up from $1.70-$2.05 previously.

The TJX Companies Raises Fiscal 2026 Outlook
Image Source: TradingView. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, The TJX Companies continues to plan for consolidated comparable sales growth to be 2%-3%, pretax profit margin in the range of 11.7%-11.8%, and diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $1.33-$1.36. For the full year fiscal 2026, the company is now expecting consolidated comparable sales growth of 4%, a pretax profit margin outlook of 11.6% -- up 0.1% versus the prior outlook -- and diluted earnings per share in the range of $4.63-$4.66, representing a 9% increase from the prior year’s mark of $4.26.

NextEra Energy Expects Continued Dividend Growth
Image Source: NextEra Energy. NextEra reiterated its long-term financial expectations. For 2025, NextEra Energy expects adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $3.45-$3.70. For 2026 and 2027, NextEra Energy expects adjusted earnings per share to be in the ranges of $3.63-$4.00 and $3.85-$4.32, respectively. The utility also expects to grow its dividends per share at a roughly 10% annual rate through at least 2026, off a 2024 base. We continue to like NextEra Energy’s fundamentals, and the firm remains a key idea in the ESG Newsletter portfolio.

Home Depot Pressured By Lack of Storm Activity
Image Source: TradingView. Home Depot updated its guidance for fiscal 2025 to reflect third quarter performance, continued pressure in the fourth quarter from the lack of storm activity, and ongoing consumer uncertainty and housing pressure. Total sales growth for the year is targeted to be approximately 3.0% (was 2.8%), while comparable sales growth is expected to be slightly positive for the 52-week period (was 1%). The home improvement retailer is targeting a gross margin of 33.2% and an adjusted operating margin of approximately 13% for the year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is expected to decline roughly 5% from $15.24 in fiscal 2024 (was a decline of 2%). It plans to open 12 new stores for the year, with capital expenditures expected at approximately 2.5% of total sales. Though 2025 earnings guidance missed the mark, we continue to like Home Depot as a dividend growth idea. Shares yield 2.6% at the time of this writing.

Phillips 66 Is Committed to a Secure, Competitive and Growing Dividend
Image Source: Phillips 66. Phillips 66 generated $637 million in free cash flow during the third quarter, and the company returned $751 million to shareholders, consisting of $267 million in stock buybacks and $484 million in dividends. Phillips 66 ended the quarter with $21.76 billion in debt and $1.95 billion in cash and cash equivalents. We like its 2027 priorities that include greater than a $500 million reduction in operating, SG&A and freight costs, more than $1 billion in total mid-cycle adjusted EBITDA growth in Midstream and Chemicals, a secure, competitive and growing dividend, and target total debt of $17 billion. We like Phillips 66 as an idea in the High Yield Dividend Newsletter portfolio, with shares yielding 3.6% at the time of this writing.
