<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744837222_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>How Does Huntington Bancshares P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>

Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 11.74 in the Banks industry, Huntington Bancshares Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 10.98. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Kinder Morgan Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMI#NYSE">KMI</a>) reported first-quarter financial results after the market close on Wednesday. Here&#8217;s a look at the key details <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/b44851818/kinder-morgan-reports-first-quarter-2025-financial-results">from the quarter</a>.
Q1 Earnings: Kinder Morgan reported first-quarter revenue of $4.24 billion, missing the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate</a>&nbsp;of $4.08 billion, according to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>. The energy infrastructure company reported adjusted quarterly earnings of 34 cents per share, missing analyst estimates of 35 cents per share.
Kinder Morgan reported first-quarter net income attributable to the company of $717 million, and adjusted EBITDA of $2.16 billion, up 1% year-over-year.
The company highlighted 8% backlog growth, driven by strong natural gas demand. Kinder Morgan noted that it&#8217;s actively pursuing &#8220;well over&#8221; 5 billion cubic feet per day of opportunities to serve the natural gas power generation sector.

The company&#8217;s board approved a cash dividend of $0.2925&nbsp;per share for the&nbsp;first quarter, payable on May 15 to shareholders of record as of April 30. Kinder Morgan expects to declare dividends of $1.17 per share in total for 2025. 
&#8220;Obviously we are going through turbulent times, with some voicing fears of an economic downturn. History shows that our company is largely insulated against temporary volatility, due to our time-tested business model structured around long-term take-or-pay, fee-based contracts with credit-worthy customers. As has been the case in past periods of economic instability, our company can be a safe haven during the storm,&#8221; said Richard Kinder, executive chairman of Kinder Morgan.
&#8220;Looking past this temporary turbulence, we see a bright future based on robust market fundamentals combined with regulatory relief and a commitment to expediting energy infrastructure projects at the federal level.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Timing and trend sensitivity are now table stakes</h2>
From AI infrastructure to next-gen consumer platforms, investors are increasingly drawn to founders who can spot a wave before it breaks. Founders who possess a strong grasp of emerging cultural trends and the understanding to strategically time their market entry are increasingly attractive to investors.
It&#8217;s not just about identifying a prospective sector, but understanding the subtle shifts in consumer behavior, technological progress, and societal changes that create opportunities for innovation. Whether it&#8217;s the rise of AI or the evolution of entertainment platforms, the ability to anticipate and position a venture at the right moment is crucial. Investors understand that even the best ideas can fail if the timing is off or they fail to move with the prevailing zeitgeist.
Gaming and entertainment are perfect examples of industries shaped by cultural timing. Neither the rapid growth of live streaming and interactive platforms nor the emergence of alternative mobile app stores could be purely attributed to new technologies. The shift was equally driven by shifts in social behaviors, media consumption and evolving regulations. Founders who understood these trends and timed their moves accordingly often found significant success.
Good examples here are the<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/08/16/fortnite-maker-epic-games-launches-its-app-store-on-ios-in-the-eu-worldwide-on-android/"> Epic Games Store</a> and<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/13/skich-challenges-epic-games-with-an-alternative-app-store-on-ios-in-the-eu/"> Skich</a>, which launched the first alternative games-focused iOS mobile stores in Europe following the recent implementation of a new regulation in the EU known as the Digital Markets Act (DMA). The DMA aims to foster fairness and competition by establishing various obligations and restrictions on major tech companies like Apple.
A key example is the prohibition it places on iOS from preventing the operation of third-party app stores. Conversely, even good projects can struggle if they misjudge the cultural moment. Therefore, a keen sense of timing and trend sensitivity is now a fundamental requirement for securing investment and achieving lasting growth in today&#8217;s fast-paced market.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Obsession with audience = product-market fit advantage</h2>
Whether it's mid-sized enterprise clients or Gen Z gamers, founders who build with true industry insight over gut feelings and assumptions are the ones getting funded. This approach ensures products resonate and address real needs, reducing investment risk. In 2025, understanding and establishing rapport with your user base is everything.
This understanding is best demonstrated through user feedback, community engagement, and data-driven iteration. In the games industry, for example, companies strive to build an audience around their products as early as possible. They create channels on Discord, engage with their audience on Reddit and Gameram, and share updates on X (formerly Twitter) and mirroring posts on the increasingly popular Bluesky.&nbsp;
Founders who can articulate their audience&#8217;s behaviors and motivations have a powerful edge. This detailed insight informs product development, marketing, and customer retention. A reliable metric that a PC game has resonated with its target audience is, for instance, the number of wishlists and following users it has on Steam.
Just recently, for example, Ubisoft and Unfrozen<a href="https://gamespace.com/all-articles/news/heroes-of-might-magic-olden-era-hit-500k-wishlists/"> announced</a> that their game Heroes of Might &amp; Magic: Olden Era, a continuation of the legendary game series, has garnered over 500,000 wishlists, which is considered a significant achievement. Savvy investors see this strong user connection as a sign of a sustainable business and a higher chance of long-term success.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Talent is a leading indicator of potential</h2>
Great people follow great ideas. A founder&#8217;s ability to attract top talent in engineering, creative, and commercial roles (regardless of sector) strongly indicates future potential. Assembling a high-caliber team is an early indicator of a compelling vision and the founder&#8217;s ability to execute on it. This assures investors that the necessary skills for success are in place, boosting long-term credibility across any sector. Furthermore, the quality of the initial hires often sets the standard for future recruitment, creating a positive feedback loop for talent acquisition.
A strong team amplifies the founder&#8217;s vision, bringing diverse skills and networks that accelerate progress. This early validation by experienced professionals also serves as a powerful endorsement of the founder&#8217;s leadership and the viability of the venture itself. Investors know that a capable team is crucial for navigating challenges and seizing opportunities. Attracting top talent reduces execution risk and increases the chances of further investment and lasting competitive advantage.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Building defensibility from the start is a must</h2>
In 2025, it's not just about getting to market fast — it's about staying there. Investors are looking for signs that a startup can maintain a competitive advantage over time and balance sustainability and growth. Whether through IP, proprietary tech, or a fiercely loyal community, founders need to think about moats earlier than ever. This applies across industries – from fintech to gaming to AI tools. A clearly defined and defensible competitive advantage significantly increases a startup&#8217;s valuation and attractiveness to potential acquirers down the line.
Early defensibility is key for long-term viability. Investors look for sustainable advantages to protect against competition. Founders who have a clear plan for building these moats from the beginning show a strong understanding of the market and a commitment to lasting value, making their startups more attractive. One example of such a moat is the first-mover advantage. For instance, Twitch, launched in 2011, benefits significantly from this.
According to<a href="https://streamscharts.com/platforms"> StreamsCharts</a> data from April 2025, Twitch has roughly five times more average concurrent viewers than its main competitor Kick, which launched much later in October 2022. This difference in audience size demonstrates the kind of unassailable foothold a confident first-mover can establish in the market.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Investors want clarity on monetization — vision isn't enough</h2>
Founders across all industries need to show a path to sustainable revenue. Whether you&#8217;re building a SaaS tool or a mobile game, making an initial splash isn't enough; the ability to monetize long-term is a key differentiator. This requires a realistic strategy and understanding the target audience&#8217;s willingness to pay. Articulating a clear pricing strategy and demonstrating early traction with paying customers can significantly bolster investor confidence.
Monetization plans must also be scalable and align with the business model. Investors want to see how revenue will grow and generate returns. A clear plan with realistic projections gives confidence that the founder has a viable path to a profitable business. This focus on revenue models is now very important for investors. Clearly outlining key performance indicators (KPIs) related to revenue generation will further strengthen your investment thesis and make your product attractive to both investors and savvy end users who are looking for something long-term.

$1000 Invested In This Stock 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Synovus Finl (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNV#NYSE">SNV</a>) reported quarterly earnings of $1.30 per share which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $1.12 by 16.07 percent. This is a 64.56 percent increase over earnings of $0.79 per share from the same period last year. The company reported quarterly sales of $570.85 million which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $570.13 million by 0.13 percent. This is a 6.16 percent increase over sales of $537.73 million the same period last year.

Earnings Beats

Synovus Finl Q1 Adj $1.30 Beats $1.12 Estimate, Sales $570.85M Beat $570.13M Estimate

The first-quarter <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors" rel="noreferrer noopener">semiconductor earnings parade</a> kicks off with ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44832382/nvidia-supplier-asml-beats-revenue-and-eps-estimates-euv-product-mix-performance-milestones-drive-q1-says-ceo" rel="noreferrer noopener">on Wednesday</a> and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) on Thursday, followed by the U.S. semi and semicap peers in the following week.
For U.S. chip vendors, BofA Securities analysts Vivek Arya and Duksan Jang expect first-quarter results to beat as their original outlook was likely conservative and tariff-related pull-ins created a better demand environment.
However, the second-quarter outlook could be in line as companies could widen the guidance range.

Regarding tariff impact, Arya and Jang expect U.S. chip companies to follow the example of early reporting companies Taiwan Semiconductor, ASML, Texas Instruments Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>), and Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>).
The analysts generically express concern on second-half demand headwinds and quantified gross margin headwinds from inflationary supply chain movements (such as Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>)) and higher U.S. sourcing.
Overall, semi-industry overhangs could persist pending clarity on new sectoral tariff rates (next several weeks), China retaliation, U.S. reciprocal tariffs, and AI diffusion rules (May 15).
On the positive side, despite some downside to estimates, valuation has become more compelling for high-quality areas in cloud/AI (Nvidia, Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/avgo#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>)), design software (Cadence Design Systems, Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cdns#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>), Synopsys, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>)) and semicap (Lam Research, KLA Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/klac#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>)).
The analysts laid down two potential scenarios, which are modest tariff impact and dire tariff impact. Their modest scenario aligns with limited China and reciprocal tariffs, while the dire scenario implies the implementation of specific sectoral tariffs on semis/electronics (tariff rates not yet announced).
In a modest scenario, tariffs could drive roughly ~4% hit to calendar 2025 sales and ~6% hit to calendar 2026 versus current consensus, with EPS declines mostly ranging between 5%-25% (12%-13% average) inclusive of 150bps gross margin hit.
In a dire scenario, estimates could be further pushed down, with a 9% and 12% sales decline in calendar 2025 and 2026 and EPS declines mostly ranging between 15%-50% (25%-30% average) inclusive of a 500bps gross margin hit.
For revenue impact, the analysts noted companies with AI/cloud/industrial exposures to fare better in a potential tariff-induced demand downturn.
At the same time, those with consumer/auto are at greater risk. Nvidia, Lam Research, Cadence Design Systems, Synopsys, and Applied Materials, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>) are among the companies with the least potential sales impact (at -1% to -6% sales impact), while Arm Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>), Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), NXP Semiconductors (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXPI#NASDAQ">NXPI</a>), ON Semiconductor Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) could fare worse (at -7% to -9% impact).
Importantly, even under the above distressed EPS scenario (dire tariffs), Nvidia, Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>), Synopsys, and Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) have a 30%+ potential upside to historical P/E or PEG multiple at current stock price.
In a modest tariff scenario, the EPS hits of 12%-13% (2-2.5 times sales) are well below the 30%-40% reductions the analysts have seen in prior market downturns. However, the primary concern is PE multiple compression due to enhanced market risks.
The SOX index is currently trading at ~18 times forward PE, below the broader SPX at ~20 times, though above the 12-14 times PE at prior semi-industry downturns. Notably, the SOX index has more than given up the ~20% PE premium it gained during AI-fueled stock gains in calendar 2023 and 2024.

Rnexa Therapeutics Files Prospectus For Resale Of 10.4M Shares Of Common Stock

JPMorgan analyst Richard W Sunderland shared a view on some North American utility companies <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ahead of upcoming earnings</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Atmos Energy Corp</h2>
Sunderland raised the price forecast of Atmos Energy Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ATO#NYSE">ATO</a>) from $164 to $166, while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ATO/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">maintaining an Overweight rating</a>.
The analyst writes that the abatement letters filed in Texas distribution rate cases suggest the company has either finalized or reached agreements in principle in both proceedings, putting them on track for resolution this spring.
This outcome aligns with expectations and positions the company with minimal regulatory exposure going forward, which is a positive in today's uncertain environment, adds the analyst.
Sunderland says that, as Atmos typically revises guidance in the second quarter, he expects the company to raise the lower end of its current EPS range of $7.05–$7.25, narrowing toward the upper end (JPMorgan/Street median: $7.17).
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44423307/jp-morgan-spire-positioned-for-growth-with-favorable-missouri-legislation-rate-case-developments" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">JPMorgan: Spire Positioned For Growth With Favorable Missouri Legislation, Rate Case Developments</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Spire Inc</h2>
Sunderland reiterated an Overweight rating for Spire Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SR#NYSE">SR</a>) and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sr/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a price forecast of $85</a>.
The analyst says he remains optimistic about the company&#8217;s outlook and anticipates that the intervenor testimony in the Missouri rate case (due by April 23) will suggest a potential settlement path.
The recent signing of SB4 further strengthens the regulatory backdrop in Missouri, though it's likely too early in the process to factor in benefits under a future test year, adds the analyst.
The analyst expects these tailwinds to offset softer first-quarter performance and keep Spire on track to meet its 2025 goals.
Sunderland estimates the second quarter EPS to be $3.73 and the full-year 2025 to be $4.51, compared to the Street median of $3.69 and $4.50, respectively.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">NewJersey Resources</h2>
NewJersey Resources (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NJR#NYSE">NJR</a>) maintains an Outperform rating <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/njr/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">with a price forecast of $56</a>.
Sunderland expects the second-quarter EPS estimate of $1.67 (vs. Street median $1.62) and raised 2025 estimates to $3.17 (vs. consensus of $3.14), close to the high end of the company&#8217;s guidance range of $3.05-$3.20.
Sunderland writes that Energy Services remains tough to forecast, but strong January volatility supports the upside flagged by management last quarter.
The analyst expects a modest upward revision to 2025 guidance (raising the low end or pointing higher within the range) in the second quarter.
The attention has shifted to tariffs and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), particularly regarding their potential effect on CEV. The company has indicated that proactive sourcing decisions have shielded it from near-term tariff impacts.
Sunderland also expects a measured, reassuring stance on the IRA from the company supported by safe harbor provisions, contractual protections, and strong relationships with developers.
