Shares of NextEra Energy rose on Tuesday after the company reported third-quarter adjusted earnings that topped Wall Street's estimates.

The stock was up 5.6% to $54.42 in late morning trading, and the shares are down 35% this year.

The Juno Beach, Fla.-based utility and renewable-energy company's profit fell in the third quarter and missed estimates. But adjusting for items such as nonqualified hedges and investment value changes, NextEra posted an adjusted profit of 94 cents, ahead of the 89 cents expected by analysts polled by FactSet.

The company backed its outlook for the remainder of the year and for 2024.
