2024 EPS Guidance Narrowed to Top Half of Range; Long-Term Financial Targets Affirmed
The company now expects its 2024 earnings per share guidance range to be $5.25 to $5.30, narrowed from the previous EPS guidance range of $5.20 to $5.30, on a weather-normalized basis. Both ranges include approximately $0.10 per share of increased interest income resulting from the early 2024 amendment to the terms of the secured seller note receivable from the 2021 sale of the former Homeowner Services Group (“HOS”). The Company affirms its long-term financial targets, including its long-term EPS and dividend growth rate targets of 7-9%. The company’s earnings forecasts are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, those described under “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” below and under “Risk Factors” in its annual, quarterly, and current reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All statements related to earnings and earnings per share refer to diluted earnings and earnings per share.
Consolidated Results
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, earnings per share were $1.42 and $2.37, respectively, compared to $1.44 and $2.37 per share in the same periods in 2023. Results include the implementation of new rates in the Regulated Businesses from its capital and acquisition investments. Results also reflect some increased production and employee-related costs and higher financing costs to fund the current capital investment plan. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023, reflect a net unfavorable impact of weather of $0.04 per share, including an estimated $0.03 and $0.07 per share, respectively, of impact due to warm, dry weather in the second quarter of 2024, primarily in New Jersey, and in the second quarter of 2023 in the Northeast and Midwest. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, include additional interest income of $0.02 and $0.04 per share, respectively, resulting from the early 2024 amendment to the secured seller note from the sale of the former HOS business.
The company is on track to meet its capital investment plan for the year with investments of $1.4 billion in the first six months of 2024, including $1.3 billion for infrastructure improvements and replacements, primarily in the Regulated Businesses, and $119 million for acquisitions. The company plans to invest a total of approximately $3.1 billion across its footprint in 2024.
Regulated Businesses
In the second quarter of 2024, the Regulated Businesses’ net income was $274 million, compared to $278 million for the same period in 2023. For the first six months of 2024, the Regulated Businesses’ net income was $459 million, compared to $452 million for the same period in 2023.
Operating revenues increased $52 million and $120 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2023. The increase in operating revenues was primarily a result of authorized revenue increases from completed general rate cases and infrastructure proceedings for the recovery of incremental capital and acquisition investments.
Since January 1, 2024, the company has been authorized additional annualized revenues of $176 million from general rate cases. Further, $90 million of additional annualized revenues from infrastructure surcharges have been authorized and are effective. The company has general rate cases in progress in seven jurisdictions and has filed for infrastructure surcharges in one jurisdiction, reflecting a total annualized revenue request of $546 million. Most of the additional authorized revenues in 2024 have effective dates in the second or third quarter of this year.
Operating expenses were higher by $37 million and $76 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2023. Operating expenses were higher primarily due to increased production costs, which include higher purchased water usage, fuel, power and chemicals costs, and an increase in employee related costs, as well as general taxes associated with increased capital investment. Depreciation expense was higher by $17 million and $32 million in the same periods, respectively, due to the growing capital investment.
Interest expense was higher by $12 million and $22 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2023, to fund capital investments.
Dividends
On July 31, 2024, the company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.7650 per share, payable on September 4, 2024, to shareholders of record as of August 13, 2024.
