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.
