Recent earnings releases typically showed modest share-price moves with generally positive or stable guidance, indicating measured reactions to steady regulated-utility results.
Over the past five earnings-related announcements from Aug 2024 through Nov 2025, ONE Gas regularly reported net income growth supported by new rates and capital investment while refining guidance within relatively narrow ranges. The company has repeatedly highlighted multi-year capital plans and dividend stability. Today’s Q4 and full-year 2025 results, plus 2026 guidance and non-GAAP adjustments, continue that pattern of incremental improvement, regulatory-driven earnings visibility, and disciplined capital spending.
Historical Comparison
In the last five earnings releases, OGS showed an average move of 0.4%, reflecting typically muted reactions to steady, rate-driven earnings updates and guidance refinements.
Earnings updates from 2024 through 2025 show a progression of increasing operating income and refined guidance, supported by new rates, rising capital investment, and continued dividend growth.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights solid FY 2025 results, with EPS of $4.37 and adjusted EPS of $4.48, alongside 2026 adjusted guidance of $4.83–$4.95. Investors may focus on how new rates and regulatory mechanisms offset warm weather, the sustainability of capital plans near $800 million annually, and the impact of prior equity issuance. Tracking future rate cases, guidance updates, and capital allocation decisions will be important.

NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
This press release includes financial results and guidance for ONE Gas with respect to adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are calculated as GAAP net income plus the deferral of an equity portion of a carrying cost attributable to shareholders' investment capitalized for regulatory purposes but not for financial reporting purposes. These carrying costs relate to property, plant and equipment that has been placed in service, but not yet reflected in base rates. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net income or GAAP earnings per share.
Management believes these non‑GAAP measures provide useful information because they offer a more complete view of our overall regulatory economics, reflect the period-specific effects of certain regulatory mechanisms designed to mitigate regulatory lag associated with property, plant and equipment placed in service prior to regulatory action, and reflect the impact of regulatory timing differences that arise under the Company's rate-setting framework. These adjustments, net of applicable tax effects, are expected to recur as a result of the Company's regulatory framework and are a consistent part of our earnings profile. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per share to adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share is provided in the Appendix.

Oklahoma ,Kansas andTexas ; - the economic climate and, particularly, its effect on the natural gas requirements of our residential and commercial customers;

- adverse weather conditions and variations in weather, including seasonal effects on demand and/or supply, the occurrence of severe storms in the territories in which we operate, climate change, and the related effects on supply, demand, and costs;
- indebtedness could make us more vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limit our ability to borrow additional funds and/or place us at competitive disadvantage compared with competitors;

- our ability to complete necessary or desirable expansion or infrastructure development projects, which may delay or prevent us from serving our customers or expanding our business;
- operational and mechanical hazards or interruptions;
- adverse labor relations;
- the effectiveness of our strategies to reduce earnings lag, revenue protection strategies and risk mitigation strategies, which may be affected by risks beyond our control such as commodity price volatility, counterparty performance or creditworthiness and interest rate risk;

- our ability to obtain capital on commercially reasonable terms, or on terms acceptable to us, or at all;
- limitations on our operating flexibility, earnings and cash flows due to restrictions in our financing arrangements;
- cross-default provisions in our borrowing arrangements, which may lead to our inability to satisfy all of our outstanding obligations in the event of a default on our part;

- changes in existing or the addition of new environmental, safety, tax, cybersecurity and other laws or regulations to which we and our subsidiaries are subject, including those that may require significant expenditures, significant increases in operating costs or, in the case of noncompliance, substantial fines or penalties;
- 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 andTexas , 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;
