ONE Gas (NYSE: OGS) reported strong Q1 2025 financial results, with net income reaching $119.4 million ($1.98 per diluted share), up from $99.3 million ($1.75 per diluted share) in Q1 2024. Operating income increased to $180.5 million from $145.9 million year-over-year, primarily driven by a $51.9 million increase from new rates. The company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.67 per share ($2.68 annualized), payable June 3, 2025.

Despite weather being 5% colder than normal and 16% colder than Q1 2024, the impact was largely offset by regulatory weather normalization mechanisms. Capital expenditures were $177.7 million in Q1 2025. The company expects to achieve the upper half of its 2025 financial guidance, projecting net income between $254-261 million and EPS of $4.20-$4.32.

ONE Gas (NYSE: OGS) ha riportato solidi risultati finanziari nel primo trimestre del 2025, con un utile netto che ha raggiunto 119,4 milioni di dollari (1,98 dollari per azione diluita), in aumento rispetto a 99,3 milioni di dollari (1,75 dollari per azione diluita) nel primo trimestre del 2024. L'utile operativo è salito a 180,5 milioni di dollari rispetto a 145,9 milioni di dollari anno su anno, principalmente grazie a un incremento di 51,9 milioni di dollari derivante dalle nuove tariffe. La società ha dichiarato un dividendo trimestrale di 0,67 dollari per azione (2,68 dollari annualizzati), con pagamento previsto per il 3 giugno 2025.

Nonostante il clima sia stato del 5% più freddo della media e del 16% più freddo rispetto al primo trimestre del 2024, l’impatto è stato in gran parte compensato dai meccanismi regolatori di normalizzazione climatica. Le spese in conto capitale sono state di 177,7 milioni di dollari nel primo trimestre del 2025. La società prevede di raggiungere la metà superiore delle sue previsioni finanziarie per il 2025, stimando un utile netto tra 254 e 261 milioni di dollari e un utile per azione tra 4,20 e 4,32 dollari.

ONE Gas (NYSE: OGS) reportó sólidos resultados financieros en el primer trimestre de 2025, con un ingreso neto que alcanzó los 119,4 millones de dólares (1,98 dólares por acción diluida), frente a los 99,3 millones de dólares (1,75 dólares por acción diluida) del primer trimestre de 2024. El ingreso operativo aumentó a 180,5 millones de dólares desde 145,9 millones año tras año, impulsado principalmente por un incremento de 51,9 millones de dólares debido a nuevas tarifas. La compañía declaró un dividendo trimestral de 0,67 dólares por acción (2,68 dólares anualizados), pagadero el 3 de junio de 2025.

A pesar de que el clima fue un 5% más frío de lo normal y un 16% más frío que en el primer trimestre de 2024, el impacto fue en gran medida compensado por mecanismos regulatorios de normalización climática. Los gastos de capital fueron de 177,7 millones de dólares en el primer trimestre de 2025. La empresa espera alcanzar la mitad superior de su guía financiera para 2025, proyectando un ingreso neto entre 254 y 261 millones de dólares y un BPA entre 4,20 y 4,32 dólares.

ONE Gas (NYSE: OGS)는 2025년 1분기 강력한 재무 실적을 보고했으며, 순이익은 1억 1,940만 달러(희석 주당 1.98달러)에 달해 2024년 1분기의 9,930만 달러(희석 주당 1.75달러)에서 증가했습니다. 영업이익은 전년 동기 대비 1억 8,050만 달러로 1억 4,590만 달러에서 상승했으며, 이는 주로 신규 요금에서 발생한 5,190만 달러 증가에 기인합니다. 회사는 분기별 배당금으로 주당 0.67달러(연 환산 2.68달러)를 선언했으며, 2025년 6월 3일 지급될 예정입니다.

기상 조건이 평년 대비 5% 더 춥고 2024년 1분기 대비 16% 더 추웠음에도 불구하고, 규제된 기상 정상화 메커니즘으로 그 영향은 대부분 상쇄되었습니다. 2025년 1분기 자본 지출은 1억 7,770만 달러였습니다. 회사는 2025년 재무 가이드라인 상위 절반 달성을 기대하며, 순이익은 2억 5,400만~2억 6,100만 달러, 주당순이익은 4.20~4.32달러를 전망하고 있습니다.

ONE Gas (NYSE: OGS) a annoncé de solides résultats financiers pour le premier trimestre 2025, avec un bénéfice net atteignant 119,4 millions de dollars (1,98 dollar par action diluée), en hausse par rapport à 99,3 millions de dollars (1,75 dollar par action diluée) au premier trimestre 2024. Le résultat opérationnel a augmenté pour atteindre 180,5 millions de dollars contre 145,9 millions d'une année sur l'autre, principalement grâce à une hausse de 51,9 millions de dollars liée aux nouveaux tarifs. La société a déclaré un dividende trimestriel de 0,67 dollar par action (2,68 dollars annualisés), payable le 3 juin 2025.

Bien que les conditions météorologiques aient été 5 % plus froides que la normale et 16 % plus froides que lors du premier trimestre 2024, l'impact a été largement compensé par des mécanismes réglementaires de normalisation climatique. Les dépenses en capital se sont élevées à 177,7 millions de dollars au premier trimestre 2025. La société prévoit d'atteindre la moitié supérieure de ses prévisions financières pour 2025, avec un bénéfice net estimé entre 254 et 261 millions de dollars et un BPA de 4,20 à 4,32 dollars.

ONE Gas (NYSE: OGS) meldete starke Finanzergebnisse für das erste Quartal 2025, mit einem Nettogewinn von 119,4 Millionen US-Dollar (1,98 US-Dollar pro verwässerter Aktie), gegenüber 99,3 Millionen US-Dollar (1,75 US-Dollar pro verwässerter Aktie) im ersten Quartal 2024. Das Betriebsergebnis stieg auf 180,5 Millionen US-Dollar von 145,9 Millionen US-Dollar im Jahresvergleich, hauptsächlich getrieben durch einen Anstieg von 51,9 Millionen US-Dollar durch neue Tarife. Das Unternehmen erklärte eine Quartalsdividende von 0,67 US-Dollar pro Aktie (hochgerechnet 2,68 US-Dollar jährlich), zahlbar am 3. Juni 2025.

Obwohl das Wetter 5 % kälter als normal und 16 % kälter als im ersten Quartal 2024 war, wurde der Effekt größtenteils durch regulatorische Wetternormalisierungsmechanismen ausgeglichen. Die Investitionsausgaben betrugen im ersten Quartal 2025 177,7 Millionen US-Dollar. Das Unternehmen erwartet, die obere Hälfte seiner Finanzprognose für 2025 zu erreichen und prognostiziert einen Nettogewinn zwischen 254 und 261 Millionen US-Dollar sowie einen Gewinn je Aktie zwischen 4,20 und 4,32 US-Dollar.

Insights

ONE Gas posted strong Q1 results with 20% profit growth, driven by successful rate increases, positioning for upper-half 2025 guidance achievement.

ONE Gas delivered impressive first quarter results, with $119.4 million in net income ($1.98 per diluted share), representing a substantial 20% increase from $99.3 million ($1.75 per share) in Q1 2024. This performance has management confidently projecting achievement in the upper half of their 2025 financial guidance range of $254-261 million net income and $4.20-$4.32 EPS.

The primary growth engine has been the company's regulatory strategy execution, which generated a $51.9 million benefit from new rates. This regulatory success significantly outweighed various cost pressures, including increased depreciation ($5.1 million), higher ad valorem taxes ($4.7 million), and increased employee-related costs ($3.2 million).

Looking ahead, ONE Gas maintains an aggressive regulatory calendar with several pending rate cases. Oklahoma Natural Gas has requested a substantial $41.5 million base rate increase, while Texas Gas Service has filed for multiple increases totaling $26.8 million across different service areas. Kansas Gas Service is seeking a $7.2 million reliability surcharge increase.

Capital expenditures reached $177.7 million for Q1, primarily targeting system integrity and replacement. The company maintains its 2025 capital investment guidance of approximately $750 million, with $180 million specifically earmarked for customer growth initiatives.

The quarterly dividend declaration of $0.67 per share ($2.68 annualized) underscores management's confidence in continued financial strength. While Q1 weather was 5% colder than normal and 16% colder than the prior year, regulatory weather normalization mechanisms effectively mitigated potential volatility.

For regulated utilities like ONE Gas, the ability to secure rate increases remains the cornerstone of financial performance, and the company's success in this area appears to be accelerating rather than diminishing.

Analyst call and webcast scheduled tomorrow, May 6 at 11 a.m. EST

TULSA, Okla., May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ONE Gas, Inc. (NYSE: OGS) today announced its first-quarter financial results, said that it expects to achieve the upper half of its previously announced 2025 financial guidance and declared its quarterly dividend.

 "We achieved strong financial results in the first quarter due to our effective regulatory strategy and a disciplined approach to managing expenses," said Robert S. McAnnally, president and chief executive officer. "Safety remains our top priority as we serve our customers and meet the growing demand for natural gas across our service territory."

FIRST QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS & HIGHLIGHTS

  • First quarter 2025 net income was $119.4 million, or $1.98 per diluted share, compared with $99.3 million, or $1.75 per diluted share, in the first quarter 2024;
  • While weather across the Company's service areas was 5 percent colder than normal and 16 percent colder than the first quarter last year, the impact on operating income was largely tempered by regulatory weather normalization mechanisms; and
  • The board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.67 per share ($2.68 annualized), payable on June 3, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 19, 2025.

FIRST QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

ONE Gas reported operating income of $180.5 million in the first quarter, compared with $145.9 million in the first quarter 2024, which primarily reflects:

  • an increase of $51.9 million from new rates; and
  • an increase of $2.3 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas.

The increase was partially offset by:

  • an increase of $5.1 million in depreciation and amortization expense from additional capital investment;
  • an increase of $4.7 million in ad valorem taxes, primarily due to regulatory outcomes which took effect during the quarter;
  • an increase of $3.2 million in employee-related costs, due primarily to strategic investments in the Company's workforce and ongoing in-sourcing efforts, which have strengthened operational oversight and improved overall expense management; and
  • a net decrease of $6.5 million due to the impact of weather normalization mechanisms, largely offset by higher sales volumes.

Excluding interest related to KGSS-I securitized bonds, net interest expense increased $4.7 million for the three months ending March 31, 2025. The increase in interest expense is due primarily to the reopening of the outstanding 5.10 percent senior notes in August 2024 to issue an additional $250 million and higher average commercial paper balances.

Income tax expense reflects credits for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with excess deferred income taxes (EDIT) of $8.1 million and $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $177.7 million for the first quarter 2025 compared with $179.4 million in the same period last year, primarily representing expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.

REGULATORY ACTIVITIES UPDATE

In April 2025, Kansas Gas Service submitted an application to the Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) requesting an increase of approximately $7.2 million related to its Gas System Reliability Surcharge. The KCC has until August 2025 to issue an order.

In April 2025, Texas Gas Service made Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program filings for all customers in the Rio Grande Valley service area, requesting a $3.2 million increase to be effective in September 2025.

In February 2025, Oklahoma Natural Gas filed its annual Performance-Based Rate Change application for the test year ended December 2024. The filing includes a requested $41.5 million base rate revenue increase, $2.4 million energy efficiency incentive and $13.2 million of EDIT to be credited to customers in 2026. A hearing is scheduled for June 12, 2025.

In February 2025, Texas Gas Service made Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program filings for customers in each of the Central-Gulf and West-North service areas, requesting increases of $15.4 million and $8.2 million, respectively, to be effective in June 2025.

2025 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

The company expects to achieve the upper half of the 2025 financial guidance shared on Dec. 5, 2024, which provided for net income in the range of $254 million to $261 million and earnings per diluted share of $4.20 to $4.32.

Capital investments, including asset removal costs, are expected to be approximately $750 million in 2025, primarily targeted for system integrity and replacement projects. Capital investments for extensions to new customers are expected to be approximately $180 million.

  • 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;

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 March 31, 2025, include $11.6 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $7.8 million in operating and amortization expense and $3.8 million in net interest expense. Revenues were in line compared to the same period last year, which was offset by a $0.3 million increase in operating and amortization expense and a $0.3 million decrease in net interest expense.

The following table summarizes the impact of KGSS-I on the consolidated balance sheets, for the periods indicated:
