Sempra

We discuss herein Sempra’s results of operations and significant changes in earnings, revenues and costs by segment, as well as Parent and other, for the three months (Q3) and nine months (YTD) ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024. We also discuss herein the impact of foreign currency and inflation rates on Sempra’s results of operations.

Due to the delay in the issuance of the CPUC’s FD in the SDG&E and SoCalGas 2024 GRC, Sempra California recorded revenues in the first three quarters of 2024 based on levels authorized for 2023 under the 2019 GRC. In December 2024, the CPUC approved an FD in the 2024 GRC, effective retroactive to January 1, 2024, for which Sempra California recorded the retroactive impacts in the fourth quarter of 2024. Sempra California’s authorized base revenues in the first three quarters of 2025 are based on the revenues authorized for the 2024 test year plus the amount authorized for attrition for 2025. We provide additional information on the 2024 GRC FD in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.

Sempra California

Sempra California’s earnings are comprised of SDG&E and SoCalGas. Because changes in SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ cost of natural gas and/or electricity are recovered in rates, changes in these costs are offset in the changes in revenues and therefore do not impact earnings, other than potential impacts related to the GCIM for SoCalGas that we describe below. In addition to the changes in cost or market prices, natural gas or electric revenues recorded during a period are impacted by the difference between customer billings and recorded or CPUC-authorized amounts. These differences are required to be balanced over time, resulting in over- and undercollected regulatory balancing accounts. We discuss balancing accounts and their effects further in Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.

In the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, the increase in earnings of $123 million (50%) was primarily due to:

$92 million higher income tax benefits primarily from flow-through items, including impacts from the election to accelerate self-developed software deductions, and from the resolution of prior year income tax items

$47 million higher CPUC base operating margin, net of operating expenses including higher depreciation and $9 million lower authorized cost of capital. In the first three quarters of 2024, Sempra California recorded CPUC-authorized base revenues based on 2023 authorized levels

$16 million higher net interest expense

In the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, the increase in earnings of $208 million (18%) was primarily due to:

The regulatory framework permits SDG&E and SoCalGas to recover certain program expenditures and other costs authorized by the CPUC (referred to as “refundable programs”).

Utilities: Natural Gas Revenues and Cost of Natural Gas

Our utilities revenues include natural gas revenues at Sempra California and Sempra Infrastructure, which includes Ecogas. Intercompany revenues are eliminated in Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

SDG&E and SoCalGas operate under a regulatory framework that permits the cost of natural gas purchased for core customers to be passed through to customers in rates substantially as incurred and without markup. The GCIM provides for SoCalGas to share in the savings and/or costs from buying natural gas for its core customers at prices below or above monthly market-based benchmarks. This mechanism permits full recovery of costs incurred when average purchase costs are within a price range around the benchmark price. Any higher costs incurred or savings realized outside this range are shared between SoCalGas and its core customers. We provide further discussion in Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.

(1) We discuss how we recognize equity earnings in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.

We report as part of our pretax results the income or loss attributable to NCI. However, we do not record income taxes for a portion of this income or loss, as some of our entities with NCI are currently treated as partnerships for U.S. income tax purposes, and thus we are only liable for income taxes on the portion of the earnings that are allocated to us. Our pretax income, however, includes 100% of these entities. If our entities with NCI grow, and if we continue to invest in such entities, the impact on our ETR may become more significant.

In the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, Sempra had an income tax expense in 2025 compared to an income tax benefit in 2024 primarily due to:

Equity Earnings

In the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, Sempra’s equity earnings increased by $18 million (4%) to $472 million primarily due to:

$45 million at Oncor Holdings driven by:

overall higher revenues primarily attributable to:

rate updates to reflect increases in invested capital

increase due to Oncor’s SRP and the UTM

higher interest expense and depreciation expense associated with increases in invested capital

higher O&M

$24 million at IMG due to an income tax expense in 2025 compared to an income tax benefit in 2024 primarily from foreign currency and inflation effects

In the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, Sempra’s equity earnings decreased by $45 million (4%) remaining at $1.2 billion primarily due to:

$74 million at IMG due to an income tax expense in 2025 compared to an income tax benefit in 2024 primarily from foreign currency and inflation effects

$19 million at Cameron LNG JV primarily from higher maintenance revenues and lower interest expense

$15 million at Oncor Holdings driven by:

overall higher revenues primarily attributable to:

rate updates to reflect increases in invested capital

increase due to Oncor’s SRP and the establishment of the UTM

customer growth

higher interest expense and depreciation expense associated with increases in invested capital

higher O&M

Earnings Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests

In the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, Sempra’s earnings attributable to NCI decreased by $55 million to $55 million primarily due to a decrease in SI Partners subsidiaries’ net income driven by foreign currency and inflation effects on our monetary positions in Mexico.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, Sempra’s earnings attributable to NCI decreased by $222 million to $103 million primarily due to a decrease in SI Partners subsidiaries’ net income driven by foreign currency and inflation effects on our monetary positions in Mexico and unrealized losses in 2025 from interest rate swaps related to the PA LNG Phase 1 project.

IMPACT OF FOREIGN CURRENCY AND INFLATION RATES ON RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Because our natural gas distribution utility in Mexico, Ecogas, uses its local currency as its functional currency, its revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange rates for the period for consolidation in Sempra’s results of operations. We discuss further the impact of foreign currency and inflation rates on results of operations, including impacts on income taxes and related hedging activity, in “Part II – Item 7. MD&A – Impact of Foreign Currency and Inflation Rates on Results of Operations” in the Annual Report.

Foreign Currency Translation

Any difference in average exchange rates used for the translation of income statement activity from year to year can cause a variance in Sempra’s comparative results of operations. In the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024, the change in our earnings as a result of foreign currency translation rates was lower by $1 million.

Transactional Impacts

Income statement activities at our foreign operations and their equity method investments are also impacted by transactional gains and losses, a summary of which is shown in the table below:
