Did you not read? They paid dividends worth over $800 million dollars last year. Case closed.

Also, side note since you seem unaware. Eversource in other states is separate operationally. That’s one reason why the performance of the company in say, NH, is better then in CT. They’re essentially joined at the very top, holding company level.

The dividends go to the shareholders, not the executives. Also, $800M wouldn't even begin to cover the cost of New England alone.

The levels of your ignorance on what you are trying to talk about is astounding.

NH, MA and NH are all operated until a central umbrella at Eversource. The costs I broke out (which you ignored in hopes that others would not notice they exist, or just haven't come up with a way to refute the truth) would exceed the dividends paid out in New England alone; the number you listed was for the company as a whole. Unless you want to pay licensed electricians the same as burger flippers, the math will never add up without massive price increases.

I never said dividends went to executives lmao. With your calculations, it would.

Do you think the dividend (i.e. money basically given away) is the total sum of their cash on hand? Not to mention the several executives making over $40 million a year?

You seriously have no idea what you’re talking about. 99% of what you’ve said on this thread is factually incorrect.

Are you incapable of math? 348 million shares at $2.55 annual payout per share:

$887 million dollars.
