TULSA, Okla., Feb. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ONE Gas, Inc. (NYSE: OGS) today announced its fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results, which included diluted earnings per share of $1.27 and $4.14, respectively.

"We had another successful year at ONE Gas. The team's execution enabled us to deliver results in line with our guidance despite rapidly changing macroeconomic conditions," said Robert S. McAnnally, president and chief executive officer. "As we celebrate ten years as ONE Gas, we remain dedicated to the safe and reliable delivery of natural gas, focused on supporting our growing service territory and committed to long-term value creation."

2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS & HIGHLIGHTS

• Fourth quarter 2023 net income was $70.7 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, compared with $67.0 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter 2022;
• Full year 2023 net income was $231.2 million, or $4.14 per diluted share, compared with $221.7 million, or $4.08 per diluted share, last year;
• On Dec. 28, 2023, the Company settled under forward contracts 1,032,403 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of $79.0 million;
• In December 2023, the Company issued $300 million of 5.10 percent senior notes due April 2029; and

FOURTH QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

ONE Gas reported operating income of $107.1 million in the fourth quarter 2023, compared with $103.6 million in the fourth quarter 2022, which primarily reflects:

• an increase of $15.6 million from new rates; and
• an increase of $1.9 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth.

These increases were partially offset by:

• a decrease of $1.9 million due to lower sales volumes, net of the impact of weather normalization mechanisms;
• an increase of $8.1 million in employee-related costs; and
• an increase of $5.4 million in depreciation expense due to additional capital expenditures being placed in service.

Weather was 12.5 percent warmer than normal for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2023. The impact on operating income was mitigated by weather normalization mechanisms.

Net income for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2023, includes an increase in interest expense of $1.5 million, excluding the $2.2 million interest expense increase related to the securitized bonds in Kansas, compared with the same period 2022.

Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with excess deferred income taxes (EDIT) of $6.9 million and $5.5 million for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $189.6 million for the fourth quarter 2023 compared with $209.6 million in the same period last year, primarily representing expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.

FULL YEAR 2023 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Operating income for the twelve-month 2023 period was $377.6 million, compared with $350.0 million in 2022, which primarily reflects:

• an increase of $61.6 million from new rates;
• an increase of $6.3 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth; and
• an increase of $4.9 million in ad valorem recoveries.

These increases were partially offset by:

• an increase of $26.5 million in employee-related costs; and
• an increase of $19.3 million in depreciation expense due to additional capital expenditures being placed in service.

For the twelve-month 2023 period, other income, net increased $13.7 million compared with 2022, due primarily to a $12.0 million higher return on investments associated with the nonqualified employee benefit plans.

Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with EDIT of $22.4 million and $18.0 million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

Excluding interest related to KGSS-I bonds, net interest expense increased $22.1 million for the twelve months ended Dec. 31, 2023, associated with higher weighted average interest rate on commercial paper borrowings and the issuance of $300 million of 4.25 percent senior notes in August 2022.

Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $728.7 million for the twelve-month 2023 period compared with $656.5 million for 2022. The increase was due primarily to expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.

On Dec. 28, 2023, the Company settled under forward contracts 1,032,403 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of $79.0 million.

In December 2023, the Company amended the forward sale agreement it entered into in March 2023 to extend the maturity date of 657,000 shares to Dec. 31, 2024 from Dec. 29, 2023. The amended forward sale agreement provides for settlement on a date, or dates, to be specified at management's discretion, but which will occur no later than Dec. 31, 2024, for 1,257,000 shares of common stock.

Had all forward contracts been settled as of Dec. 31, 2023, it would have generated net proceeds of $273.2 million, as detailed below:

Settlement Dates	Remaining Shares	Net Proceeds Available (in thousands)	Forward Price

• 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, vendor 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 and the Middle East;
• 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.

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 Dec. 31, 2023, include an increase of $7.1 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $5.0 million in amortization and operating expense and a $2.2 million increase in net interest expense. Revenues for the year ended Dec. 31, 2023, include an increase of $42.9 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $27.1 million in amortization and operating expense and $15.7 million in net interest expense.
