(PRNewsfoto/ONE Gas, Inc.)

"We enter the second half of the year focused on safety and capital plan execution," said Robert S. McAnnally, president and chief executive officer. "Our team continues to meet the needs of our growing customer base while managing costs and prioritizing personal and system safety."

SECOND QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS & HIGHLIGHTS

• Second quarter 2023 net income was $32.7 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, compared with $32.1 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2022;

• Year-to-date 2023 net income was $135.3 million, or $2.42 per diluted share, compared with $131.0 million, or $2.42 per diluted share, in the same period last year;

• Actual heating degree days across the Company's service areas were 593 in the second quarter 2023, 11.1% warmer than normal and 6.6% warmer than the same period last year; and

• A quarterly dividend of $0.65 per share ($2.60 annualized) was declared on July 17, 2023, payable on Sept. 1, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on Aug. 16, 2023.

SECOND QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

ONE Gas reported operating income of $64.0 million in the second quarter 2023, compared with $58.6 million in the second quarter 2022, which primarily reflects:

• an increase of $14.1 million from new rates; and

• an increase of $1.1 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas.

These increases were offset partially by:

• an increase of $6.7 million in employee-related costs; and

• a decrease of $1.7 million due to lower sales volumes, net of the impact of weather normalization mechanisms.

Weather across the service territories for the second quarter was 6.6% warmer than the prior year and 11.1% warmer than normal for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The impact on operating income was mitigated by weather normalization mechanisms.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, other income, net, increased $6.2 million compared with the same period last year, due primarily to a $5.9 million increase in the market value of investments associated with nonqualified employee benefit plans.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2023, includes an increase in interest expense of $11.2 million, including $4.7 million in interest expense related to the Kansas securitization. Interest expense also increased primarily due to a higher weighted average interest rate on commercial paper borrowings and the issuance of $300 million of 4.25% senior notes in August 2022.

Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with excess deferred income taxes (EDIT) of $3.1 million and $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $41.1 million higher for the second quarter 2023 compared with the same period last year, due primarily to expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.

YEAR-TO-DATE 2023 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Operating income for the six-month 2023 period was $213.3 million, compared with $199.3 million in 2022, which primarily reflects:

• an increase of $31.4 million from new rates; and

• an increase of $3.1 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas.

These increases were offset partially by:

• an increase of $10.8 million in employee-related costs;

• a decrease of $3.3 million due to lower sales volumes, net of the impact of weather normalization mechanisms; and

• an increase of $2.4 million in bad debt expense.

Weather across the service territories for the six-month 2023 period was 7.4% warmer than normal and 13.7% warmer than the same period last year. The impact on operating income was mitigated by weather normalization mechanisms.

For the six-month 2023 period, other income, net increased $12.9 million compared with the same period last year, due primarily to a $10.3 million increase in the market value of investments associated with nonqualified employee benefit plans and a $1.1 million decrease in net periodic benefit costs other than service cost.

Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with EDIT of $13.0 million and $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Interest expense increased $25.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which includes an increase of $9.6 million related to the Kansas securitization. Interest expense was also impacted by a higher weighted average interest rate on commercial paper borrowings and the issuance of $300 million of 4.25% senior notes in August 2022.

Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $354.8 million for the six-month 2023 period compared with $272.0 million in the same period last year. The increase was due primarily to expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company executed forward sale agreements for shares of its common stock through an underwritten offering and its at-the-market equity program. No shares of common stock have been settled under these forward sale agreements. Had all shares been settled as of June 30, 2023, it would have generated net proceeds of $248.7 million, as detailed below:

REGULATORY ACTIVITIES UPDATE

In March 2023, Oklahoma Natural Gas filed its annual Performance-Based Rate Change application for the test year ending December 2022. The filing included a requested $27.6 million base rate revenue increase, a $2.5 million energy efficiency incentive and $11.9 million of EDIT to be credited to customers in 2024. In July 2023, the Oklahoma Corporation Commission issued an order approving a settlement with a revenue increase of $26.3 million, a $2.5 million energy efficiency incentive, and a $12.6 million EDIT credit. New rates went into effect on June 29, 2023.

In February 2023, Texas Gas Service made Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program (GRIP) filings for all customers in the Central-Gulf service area, requesting an $11.5 million increase to be effective in June 2023. All the municipalities and the Railroad Commission of Texas (RRC), approved the increase or allowed it to take effect with no action, in June 2023.

In March 2023, Texas Gas Service made GRIP filings for all customers in the West-North service area, requesting a $7.4 million increase to be effective in July 2023. In June 2023, the municipalities of El Paso, Socorro and Anthony denied the requested increase, which Texas Gas Service appealed to the RRC. All other municipalities, and the RRC, approved an increase of $7.3 million or allowed it to take effect with no action. Texas Gas Service implemented the new rates in June 2023, subject to adjustment depending upon the outcome of the appeal.

In June 2023, Texas Gas Service filed a rate case for all customers in the Rio Grande Valley service area, requesting a $9.8 million increase. New rates are expected to take effect in late 2023 or early 2024.

One should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which are applicable only as of the date of this news release. Known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Those factors may affect our operations, markets, products, services and prices. In addition to any assumptions and other factors referred to specifically in connection with the forward-looking statements, factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in any forward-looking statement include, among others, the following:

• our ability to recover costs, income taxes and amounts equivalent to the cost of property, plant and equipment, regulatory assets and our allowed rate of return in our regulated rates or other recovery mechanisms;

• cyber-attacks, which, according to experts, continue to increase in volume and sophistication, or breaches of technology systems that could disrupt our operations or result in the loss or exposure of confidential or sensitive customer, employee or Company information; further, increased remote working arrangements have required enhancements and modifications to our information technology infrastructure (e.g. Internet, Virtual Private Network, remote collaboration systems, etc.), and any failures of the technologies, including third-party service providers, that facilitate working remotely could limit our ability to conduct ordinary operations or expose us to increased risk or effect of an attack;

• our ability to manage our operations and maintenance costs;

• the concentration of our operations in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas;

• changes in regulation of natural gas distribution services, particularly those in Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas;

• the economic climate and, particularly, its effect on the natural gas requirements of our residential and commercial customers;

• the length and severity of a pandemic or other health crisis which could significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period;

• competition from alternative forms of energy, including, but not limited to, electricity, solar power, wind power, geothermal energy and biofuels;

• 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, and 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 secure reliable, competitively priced and flexible natural gas transportation and supply, including decisions by natural gas producers to reduce production or shut-in producing natural gas wells and expiration of existing supply and transportation and storage arrangements that are not replaced with contracts with similar terms and pricing;

• 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;

• the capital-intensive nature of our business, and the availability of and access to, in general, funds to meet our debt obligations prior to or when they become due and to fund our operations and capital expenditures, either through (i) cash on hand, (ii) operating cash flow, or (iii) access to the capital markets and other sources of liquidity;

• 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 the financial markets during the periods covered by the forward-looking statements, particularly those affecting the availability of capital and our ability to refinance existing debt and fund investments and acquisitions to execute our business strategy;

• actions of rating agencies, including the ratings of debt, general corporate ratings and changes in the rating agencies' ratings criteria;

• changes in inflation and interest rates;

• our ability to recover the costs of natural gas purchased for our customers and any related financing required to support our purchase of natural gas supply;

• impact of potential impairment charges;

• volatility and changes in markets for natural gas and our ability to secure additional and sufficient liquidity on reasonable commercial terms to cover costs associated with such volatility;

• possible loss of local distribution company franchises or other adverse effects caused by the actions of municipalities;

• payment and performance by counterparties and customers as contracted and when due, including our counterparties maintaining ordinary course terms of supply and payments;

• changes in existing or the addition of new environmental, safety, tax and other laws 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, and economic conditions in these areas' housing markets;

• acts of nature and the potential effects of threatened or actual terrorism and war, including recent events in Europe;

• the sufficiency of insurance coverage to cover losses;

• the effects of our strategies to reduce tax payments;

• changes in accounting standards;

• changes in corporate governance standards;

• existence of material weaknesses in our internal controls;

• our ability to comply with all covenants in our indentures and the ONE Gas Credit Agreement, a violation of which, if not cured in a timely manner, could trigger a default of our obligations;

• our ability to attract and retain talented employees, management and directors, and shortage of skilled-labor;

• unexpected increases in the costs of providing health care benefits, along with pension and postemployment health care benefits, as well as declines in the discount rates on, declines in the market value of the debt and equity securities of, and increases in funding requirements for, our defined benefit plans; and

• our ability to successfully complete merger, acquisition or divestiture plans, regulatory or other limitations imposed as a result of a merger, acquisition or divestiture, and the success of the business following a merger, acquisition or divestiture.

These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. Other factors could also have material adverse effects on our future results. These and other risks are described in greater detail in Part 1, Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Annual Report. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these factors. Other than as required under securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement whether as a result of new information, subsequent events or change in circumstances, expectations or otherwise.

KGSS-I SECURITIZATION

In November 2022, Kansas Gas Service Securitization I, L.L.C. (KGSS-I) issued $336 million of securitized utility tariff bonds. KGSS-I used the proceeds from the issuance to purchase the Securitized Utility Tariff Property from Kansas Gas Service, pay for debt issuance costs, and reimburse Kansas Gas Service for upfront securitization costs paid on behalf of KGSS-I.

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023, include an increase of $11.8 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $7.3 million in amortization and operating expense and $4.5 million in net interest expense. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023, include an increase of $23.7 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $14.5 million in amortization and operating expense and $9.2 million in net interest expense.

The following table summarizes the impact of KGSS-I on the consolidated balance sheets:
