What management said
Yes, Richard, that's exactly the way I'm thinking about it. Over time, if we're able to sign additional ESAs, I look at it as really strengthening the EPS growth rate in the outer years of this 5-year plan and lengthening the period of this strong growth.

Well, I'll let you do the math on that.

And as I mentioned before, I see upside to that $90 billion as we look out over time as well.
What analysts pressed on
Analysts expressed concerns regarding the potential for construction delays impacting large load customer sales and the overall execution risk associated with the ambitious infrastructure investment plan. There were also inquiries about the regulatory outlook and its implications for future revenue.
