The York Water Company reported modestly higher 2025 revenue but slightly lower profit. Operating revenue rose 3.4% to $77,488, driven by customer growth and a higher distribution system improvement charge. Operating income was $27,705, down slightly from 2024.
Net income edged down 1.3% to $20,058, with diluted EPS of $1.39. Higher depreciation, wages, maintenance, and interest expense, along with lower allowance for funds used during construction, more than offset revenue gains. Return on year-end common equity was 8.3%, below the 10.3% five-year average. The company invested $48,725 in infrastructure and ended 2025 with common equity at 51.7% of total capitalization and long-term debt of $221,900. The quarterly dividend was raised 4.0% to $0.2280 per share.
The York Water Company reported its 2025 annual and fourth quarter results. Full-year operating revenues were $77,488,000, up $2,529,000 from 2024, while net income was $20,058,000, down $267,000. Earnings per share were $1.39, a decrease of $0.03.
Revenue growth came mainly from customer growth and the Distribution System Improvement Charge, but higher operating costs, depreciation, interest expense, and lower AFUDC more than offset these benefits. In 2025 the company invested $48.7 million in capital projects and plans approximately $48 million of additional investments in each of 2026 and 2027.
The York Water Company reported that the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission approved a joint settlement to revise its water and wastewater base rates. The decision supports a planned $145 million investment in water and wastewater service and related infrastructure.
The new rates are expected to increase annual combined water and wastewater revenue by about $18.85 million. A typical residential customer will pay an additional $8.51 per month for water and $25.45 per month for wastewater, while the average cost of 1,000 gallons of water remains slightly more than one cent.
The rate package also doubles funding for low-income customer assistance programs across Adams, Franklin, Lancaster, and York Counties. Customers will see the new rates on bills beginning March 1, 2026, and the company continues to serve over 212,000 people in 58 municipalities.
