Insights

The Q4 2024 results reveal a complex financial picture for ONE Gas, with several noteworthy developments that warrant careful analysis. Operating income increased to $124.3 million in Q4, up 16% from the previous year, demonstrating robust operational execution despite challenging conditions.

Three key aspects deserve particular attention:

The rate base growth strategy is proving effective, contributing $24.6 million in new rates. This regulatory success provides stable revenue streams and helps offset rising operational costs.
The company's capital deployment efficiency remains strong, with $762.1 million in capital expenditures primarily directed toward system integrity and service expansion. This investment pattern suggests a prudent balance between maintenance and growth initiatives.
The rising interest expense environment presents a growing challenge, with net interest expense increasing by $10.4 million in Q4 alone. This highlights the importance of the company's recent equity raise of $245.7 million, which helps maintain financial flexibility.

The modest 1.5% dividend increase to $0.67 per share quarterly reflects a conservative approach to capital allocation, maintaining balance sheet strength while supporting shareholder returns. The company's weather normalization mechanisms effectively protected revenues despite temperatures being 24.3% warmer than normal, demonstrating the resilience of their business model.

Looking ahead, the $23.6 million in pending rate increases through the Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program in Texas indicates continued regulatory support for infrastructure investment. However, investors should monitor the impact of rising employee-related costs and depreciation expenses, which could pressure margins if not offset by additional rate increases or operational efficiencies.

2024 FINANCIAL RESULTS & HIGHLIGHTS

FOURTH QUARTER 2024 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

ONE Gas reported operating income of $124.3 million in the fourth quarter, compared with $107.1 million in the fourth quarter 2023, which primarily reflects:

an increase of $24.6 million from new rates;
an increase of $1.2 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas; and
an increase of $7.9 million in gas sales-related revenues.

The increase was partially offset by:

an increase of $2.9 million in depreciation and amortization expense from additional capital investment;
an increase of $6.5 million in employee-related costs, due primarily to planned investments in the Company's workforce and ongoing in-sourcing efforts, which have enhanced management of operations and maintenance expense; and
an increase of $4.8 million in ad-valorem taxes, primarily due to regulatory outcomes which took effect during the quarter.

Weather was 24.3 percent warmer than normal for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2024. The impact on operating income was mitigated by weather normalization mechanisms.

Excluding interest related to KGSS-I securitized bonds, net interest expense increased $10.4 million for the three months ending Dec. 31, 2024. Interest expense was primarily impacted by the conversion of the two debt maturities in the first quarter 2024 to commercial paper with a higher weighted average interest rate, the issuance of $300 million of 5.10 percent senior notes in December 2023 and the reopening of the 5.10 percent senior notes in August 2024 to issue an additional $250 million, all of which are supportive of our capital plan.

Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with excess deferred income taxes (EDIT) of $12.3 million and $6.9 million for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $190.4 million for the fourth quarter 2024 compared with $189.6 million in the same period last year, primarily representing expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.

FULL YEAR 2024 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Operating income for the twelve-month 2024 period was $399.0 million, compared with $377.6 million in 2023, which primarily reflects:

an increase of $67.9 million from new rates; and
an increase of $6.3 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas.

These increases were offset partially by:

an increase of $22.9 million of employee-related costs due primarily to planned investments in the Company's workforce and ongoing in-sourcing efforts;
an increase of $16.9 million in depreciation and amortization expense from additional capital investment; and
an increase of $6.9 million due to ad-valorem taxes.

Excluding interest related to KGSS-I securitized bonds, net interest expense increased $33.6 million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2024. Interest expense was primarily impacted by the conversion of the two debt maturities in the first quarter 2024 to commercial paper with a higher weighted average interest rate, the issuance of $300 million of 5.10 percent senior notes in December 2023 and the reopening of the 5.10 percent senior notes in August 2024 to issue an additional $250 million.

Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with EDIT of $25.7 million and $22.4 million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $762.1 million for the twelve-month 2024 period compared with $728.7 million in the same period last year. The increase was due primarily to expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.

In December, the Company settled 3,160,465 million shares of our common stock under our at-the-market equity program and forward contracts for net proceeds of $245.7 million. In December, we also amended the two forward sale agreements we entered into in September 2023 to extend the maturity date of 223,000 and 180,000 shares of our common stock to December 31, 2025 from December 31, 2024.

the effectiveness of our risk-management policies and procedures, and employees violating our risk-management policies;
the uncertainty of estimates, including accruals and costs of environmental remediation;
advances in technology, including technologies that increase efficiency or that improve electricity's competitive position relative to natural gas;
population growth rates and changes in the demographic patterns of the markets we serve in Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas, and economic conditions in these areas;
acts of nature and naturally occurring disasters;
political unrest and the potential effects of threatened or actual terrorism and war;

the effects of our strategies to reduce tax payments;
changes in accounting standards;

KGSS-I SECURITIZATION

In November 2022, Kansas Gas Service Securitization I, L.L.C. (KGSS-I) issued $336 million of securitized utility tariff bonds. KGSS-I used the proceeds from the issuance to purchase the Securitized Utility Tariff Property from Kansas Gas Service, pay for debt issuance costs, and reimburse Kansas Gas Service for upfront securitization costs paid on behalf of KGSS-I.

Revenues for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2024, include $10.6 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $6.7 million in operating and amortization expense and $3.9 million in net interest expense. Revenues decreased $2.3 million compared to the same period last year, which was offset by the net change of a $1.9 million decrease in operating and amortization expense and a $0.4 million decrease in net interest expense.

Revenues for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2024, include $44.4 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $28.1 million in operating and amortization expense and $16.1 in net interest expense. Compared to the same twelve month period last year, revenues decreased $4.3 million, which was offset by the net change of a $2.5 million decrease in amortization and operating expense and a $1.7 million decrease in net interest expense.
