Fiscal Year 2025

The acquisition of a fast-growing Texas natural gas utility expands scale, diversifies earnings, and leverages existing developer relationships. The $273M cash deal plus $152M debt is expected to close in Q1 2025, supporting long-term EPS growth and offering significant capital investment opportunities.

Strong Q3 performance driven by regulatory achievements, customer growth, and robust segment results. Net loss widened year-over-year due to regulatory lag and inflation, but guidance and long-term growth targets were reaffirmed.
-
Q2 2024 results were in line with guidance, with a net loss driven by regulatory lag and inflation, but customer growth and cost-saving measures partially offset impacts. Major rate case settlements, new water acquisitions, and decarbonization initiatives position the company for future growth.
