ROANOKE, Va., Nov. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RGC Resources, Inc. (Nasdaq: RGCO) announced consolidated Company earnings of $13.3 million, or $1.29 per share, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, compared to $11.8 million, or $1.16 per share, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024. The strong increase reflected record levels of gas deliveries aided by higher operating margins, partially offset by inflationary cost increases and lower equity earnings from the Company’s investment in the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP). MVP’s equity earnings in the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 contained significant allowance for funds used during construction.

Roanoke Gas made further investments in its utility infrastructure to drive customer growth and enhance system reliability. CEO Paul Nester stated, “We delivered gas effectively and efficiently to all of our customers in what turned out to be one of the coldest winters in the last decade, resulting in the highest annual volume of gas we have ever delivered. Also, we are pleased to have successfully refinanced and extended the maturity of RGC Midstream’s debt in September.”

Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $204,000, or $0.02 per share, compared to net income of $141,000, or $0.01 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The fourth quarter is seasonally weaker and had higher expense levels year over year, which resulted in a modest loss.
