Portland General Electric Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results

Second quarter financial results reflect significant demand growth from data center customers, driving 16.5% industrial load growth quarter-over-quarter Advancing recovery of the Seaside battery, distribution system investments and holding company structure Reaffirming 2025 adjusted earnings guidance of $3.13 to $3.33 per diluted share , /PRNewswire/ -- Portland General Electric Company (NYSE: POR) today reported net income based on generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) of $62 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2025. After adjusting for the impact of business transformation and optimization expenses, second quarter 2025 non-GAAP net income was $73 million, or $0.66 per diluted share. This compares with GAAP net income of $72 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. "The second quarter was a period of execution and solid progress at Portland General Electric," said Maria Pope, President and CEO. "We are focused on safely and reliably serving customers, engaging with stakeholders, driving efficiencies and updating our corporate structure to lower costs and deliver results." Second Quarter 2025 Compared to Second Quarter 2024 On a GAAP basis, total revenues increased due to continued demand growth from semiconductor manufacturing and technology infrastructure customers, partially offset by lower average price of deliveries from changing customer mix. Purchased power and fuel expense increased given rising prices for purchased power and fuel. Operating and maintenance expenses increased due to wildfire mitigation, vegetation management, and business transformation expenses. Depreciation and amortization expense and interest expense increased due to ongoing capital investment. Income tax expense increased as a result of lower production tax credit generation. Company Updates Corporate Structure Today, PGE is submitting a formal application to the Oregon Public Utilities Commission (OPUC) for approval of a holding company reorganization. The structure contemplated involves placing a non-operating corporate entity over the Company's existing structure. It would also allow for the formation of a subsidiary to hold existing and future transmission assets. The intent of the reorganization is to provide benefits to customers and shareholders by taking advantage of the financial flexibility provided by a holding company structure, and to support construction of new transmission assets, reliability planning, and economic development. Regulatory Updates Also today, PGE is submitting a request to the OPUC for recovery of costs associated with PGE's Distribution System Plan (DSP). PGE's request includes an annualized revenue requirement increase of $72 million, with a proposed rate effective date of April 1, 2026. On May 30, 2025, PGE submitted a request for recovery of the revenue requirement associated with the Seaside Battery Energy Storage System (Seaside), consistent with the option presented by the OPUC in the 2025 GRC order. PGE's request includes an annualized revenue requirement increase of $46 million, with a proposed rate effective date of October 31, 2025. PGE entered into a memorandum of understanding with intervenors, which establishes the scope of recovery mechanisms for both Seaside and costs associated with PGE's DSP. PGE is committed to continuing to collaborate with key stakeholders and providing safe, reliable service at the lowest possible cost for customers. 2023 Request for Proposals Following the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB), PGE plans to provide an opportunity for all conforming 2023 RFP bidders to refresh their pricing. PGE, in collaboration with an independent evaluator, will work to update scoring and ranking to reflect pricing changes from bidders in the coming months. PGE continues to expect finalization of contracts in the second half of 2025, with projects in service by the end of 2027. This timing will allow PGE to maximize the impact of important federal tax credits received for each project, as allowed by the OBBB, keeping customer prices as low as possible. Quarterly Dividend As previously announced, on July 18, 2025, the board of directors of Portland General Electric Company approved a quarterly common stock dividend of $0.525 per share. The quarterly dividend is payable on or before October 15, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 25, 2025. 2025 Earnings Guidance PGE is reaffirming its estimate for full-year 2025 adjusted earnings guidance of $3.13 to $3.33 per diluted share based on the following assumptions: An increase in energy deliveries between 2.5% and 3.5%, weather adjusted; Execution of power cost and financing plans; Execution of operating cost controls; Normal temperatures in its utility service territory; Hydro conditions for the year that reflect current estimates; Wind generation based on five years of historical levels or forecast studies when historical data is not available; Normal thermal plant operations; Operating and maintenance expense between $795 million and $815 million which includes approximately $135 million of wildfire, vegetation management, deferral amortization and other expenses that are offset in other income statement lines; Depreciation and amortization expense between $550 million and $575 million; Effective tax rate of 15% to 20%; Cash from operations of $900 to $1,000 million; Capital expenditures of $1,215 million; and Average construction work in progress balance of $595 million. Second Quarter 2025 Earnings Call and Webcast — July 25, 2025 PGE will host a conference call with financial analysts and investors on Friday, July 25, 2025, at 11 a.m. ET. The conference call will be webcast live on the PGE website at investors.portlandgeneral.com. A webcast replay will also be available on PGE's investor website "Events & Presentations" page beginning at 2 p.m. ET on July 25, 2025. Maria Pope, President and CEO; Joe Trpik, Senior Vice President of Finance and CFO; and Nick White, Manager of Investor Relations, will participate in the call. Management will respond to questions following formal comments. The attached unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, balance sheets and statements of cash flows, as well as the supplemental operating statistics, are an integral part of this earnings release. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains certain non-GAAP measures, such as adjusted earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted earnings guidance. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant items that are generally not related to our ongoing business activities, are infrequent in nature, or both. PGE believes that excluding the effects of these items provides a meaningful representation of the Company's comparative earnings per share and enables investors to evaluate the Company's ongoing operating financial performance. Management utilizes non-GAAP measures to assess the Company's current and forecasted performance, and for communications with shareholders, analysts and investors. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Items in the periods presented, which PGE believes impact the comparability of comparative earnings and do not represent ongoing operating financial performance, include the following: Business transformation and optimization expenses, including strategic advisory, workforce realignment and corporate structure update costs Due to the forward-looking nature of PGE's non-GAAP adjusted earnings guidance, and the inherently unpredictable nature of items and events which could lead to the recognition of non-GAAP adjustments (such as, but not limited to, regulatory disallowances or extreme weather events), management is unable to estimate the occurrence or value of specific items requiring adjustment for future periods, which could potentially impact the Company's GAAP earnings. Therefore, management cannot provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share guidance to the most comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, management is unable to address the probable significance of unavailable information. PGE's reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 is below. Non-GAAP Earnings Reconciliation for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (Dollars in millions, except EPS) Net Income Diluted EPS GAAP as reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 $ 62 $ 0.56 Exclusion of business transformation and optimization expenses 15 0.14 Tax effect (1) (4) (0.04) Non-GAAP as reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 $ 73 $ 0.66 (1) Tax effects were determined based on the Company's full-year blended federal and state statutory rate.
