SOUTHWEST GAS CORPORATION
June 30, 2023
Note 1 – Background, Organization, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations.
Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a holding company, owning all of the shares of common stock of Southwest Gas Corporation (“Southwest” or the “natural gas distribution” segment), all of the shares of common stock of Centuri Group, Inc. (“Centuri,” or the “utility infrastructure services” segment), and until February 14, 2023, all of the shares of common stock of MountainWest Pipelines Holding Company (“MountainWest” or the “pipeline and storage” segment).
In December 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) unanimously determined to take strategic actions to simplify the Company’s portfolio of businesses. These actions included entering into a definitive agreement to sell
100
% of MountainWest to Williams Partners Operating LLC (“Williams”) for $
1.5
billion in total enterprise value, subject to certain adjustments (collectively, the “MountainWest sale”). The MountainWest sale closed on February 14, 2023. Additionally, the Company determined it will pursue a spin-off of Centuri (the “Centuri spin-off”), to form a new independent publicly traded utility infrastructure services company. The Centuri spin-off is expected to be completed towards the end of the first quarter of 2024 and to be tax free to the Company and its stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See
Note 8 - Dispositions
for more information.
Southwest is engaged in the business of purchasing, distributing, and transporting natural gas for customers in portions of Arizona, Nevada, and California. Public utility rates, practices, facilities, and service territories of Southwest are subject to regulatory oversight. The timing and amount of rate relief can materially impact results of operations. Natural gas purchases and the timing of related recoveries can materially impact liquidity. Results for the natural gas distribution segment are higher during winter periods due to the seasonality incorporated in its regulatory rate structures.
Centuri is a strategic utility infrastructure services company dedicated to partnering with North America’s gas and electric providers to build and maintain the energy network that powers millions of homes across the United States (“U.S.”) and Canada. Centuri derives revenue primarily from installation, replacement, repair, and maintenance of energy networks. Centuri operates in the U.S., primarily as NPL, Neuco, Linetec, and Riggs Distler, and in Canada, primarily as NPL Canada. Utility infrastructure services activity is seasonal in many of Centuri’s operating areas. Peak periods are the summer and fall months in colder climate areas, such as the northeastern and midwestern U.S. and in Canada. In warmer climate areas, such as the southwestern and southeastern U.S., utility infrastructure services activity continues year round.
Basis of Presentation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries and Southwest (with its subsidiaries) included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The year-end 2022 condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. No substantive change has occurred with regard to the Company’s business segments on the whole during the recently completed quarter.
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items and estimates necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods, have been made.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2022 Annual Report to Stockholders, which is incorporated by reference into the 2022 Form 10-K.
In the first quarter of 2023, management identified a misstatement related to its accounting for the cost of gas sold at Southwest, thereby determining that Net cost of gas sold was overstated in 2021 and 2022 by $
2.3
million and $
5.7
million, respectively. Southwest made an adjustment in the first quarter of 2023 to reduce Net cost of gas sold and to increase its asset balance for Deferred purchased gas cost by $
8
million.
Also in the first quarter of 2023, the Company identified an approximately $
21
million misstatement related to its initial estimation of the loss recorded upon reclassifying MountainWest as an asset held for sale during the year ended December 31, 2022. Consequently, the impairment loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 was understated by approximately $
21
million, which was corrected in the first quarter of 2023.
The Company (and Southwest, with respect to Net cost of gas sold) assessed, both quantitatively and qualitatively, the impact of these items on previously issued financial statements, concluding they were not material to any prior period or the current period financial statements.

Held for sale.
In the first quarter of 2023, the Company and Southwest concluded certain assets associated with its previous corporate headquarters met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. As a result, the Company and Southwest reclassified approximately $
27
million from Other property and investments to Current assets held for sale on their respective Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in the first quarter of 2023.
Cash and Cash Equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents of the Company include $
183.3
million and $
30
million of money market fund investments at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The money market fund investments for Southwest were $
181.4
million at June 30, 2023 and $
17.6
million at December 31, 2022, respectively.
Noncash investing activities include capital expenditures that were not yet paid, thereby remaining in accounts payable, the amounts related to which declined by approximately $
34
million and $
29.7
million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, for the Company and Southwest, respectively, and increased $
1
million and $
8.4
million for each of these entities during the twelve months ended June 30, 2023.
The Other change in short-term debt as presented on the Company’s and Southwest’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows is comprised of repayments of short-term debt and changes in the current portion of the credit facility.
Deferred purchased gas costs.
In July 2023, the Arizona Corporation Commission (the “ACC”) approved an increase in the gas cost balancing account (“GCBA”) rate, over a
two-year
period, as an enhancement to the existing gas cost recovery mechanism, given the $
358
million Arizona account balance existing as of May 31, 2023. The increased GCBA rate of $0.20 per therm will support timely recovery of the existing balance. Based on the design of base tariff gas cost rates in Arizona, a separate gas cost balancing recovery rate commonly in place, and the updated GCBA rate now in place, it is estimated that without regard to additional gas costs incurred or interest on the balance following the most recent balance sheet date of June 30, 2023, the account balance existing as of that date is deemed generally recoverable over the next
twelve months
, and it is therefore classified as a current asset on the balance sheets of the Company and Southwest.
Prepaid and other current assets.
Prepaid and other current assets for the Company and Southwest include, among other things, materials and operating supplies of $
84.6
million at June 30, 2023 and
$
77.3
million
at December 31, 2022 (carried at weighted average cost). Also included in the balance was $
207
million as of December 31, 2022 in unrecovered purchased gas costs, with
no
corresponding asset balance as of June 30, 2023.
Goodwill.
Since December 31, 2022, management qualitatively assessed whether events during the first six months of 2023 indicated it was more likely than not that the fair value of our reporting units was less than their carrying value, which if the case, could be an indication of a goodwill impairment. Through management’s assessments,
no
impairment was deemed to have occurred in the continuing segments of the Company.
Goodwill in the Natural Gas Distribution and Utility Infrastructure Services segments is included in the respective Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

Interest income primarily relates to Southwest’s regulatory asset balances, including its deferred purchased gas cost mechanisms, the combined balance of which increased from $
355
million as of June 30, 2022 to $
786
million as of June 30, 2023. Refer also to
Note 2 – Components of Net Periodic Benefit Cost
. Miscellaneous expense for Southwest includes a variety of items, including reserves for uncompleted software projects at Southwest deemed non-recoverable from its utility operations.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests.
In connection with the acquisition of Linetec in November 2018, the previous owner initially retained a
20
% equity interest in that entity, with redemption being subject to certain rights based on the passage of time or upon the occurrence of certain triggering events. Effective in 2022, the Company, through Centuri, had the right, but not the obligation, to purchase at fair value (subject to a floor) a portion of the interest held by the previous owner, and in incremental amounts each year thereafter. In March 2022, the parties agreed to a partial redemption, reducing the noncontrolling interest to
15
%, and in March 2023, agreeing once again to a partial
5
% redemption (of the
15
% then remaining). Centuri paid $
39.9
million to the previous owner in April 2023, thereby reducing the balance continuing to be redeemable as of June 30, 2023 to
10
% under the terms of the original agreement, with Centuri now owning a
90
% stake in Linetec
.
Furthermore, certain members of Riggs Distler management have a
1.42
% interest in Drum, which is redeemable, subject to certain rights based on the passage of time or upon the occurrence of certain triggering events.
Significant changes in the value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests, above a floor determined at the establishment date, are recognized as they occur, and the carrying value is adjusted as necessary at each reporting date. The fair value is estimated using a market approach that utilizes certain financial metrics from guideline public companies of similar industry and operating characteristics. Based on the fair value model employed, the estimated redemption value of the Linetec redeemable noncontrolling interest increased approximately $
35.3
million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 (notwithstanding the change resulting from the partial redemption noted above), and the estimated redemption value of the Drum redeemable noncontrolling interest increased by approximately $
266,000
over the same period. Valuation adjustments also impact retained

Earnings Per Share.
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) in each period of this report were calculated by dividing net income attributable to Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares during those periods. Diluted EPS includes additional weighted-average common stock equivalents (performance shares and restricted stock units). Unless otherwise noted, the term “Earnings Per Share” refers to Basic EPS.
A reconciliation of the denominator used in Basic and Diluted EPS calculations is shown in the following table:

Income Taxes.
The Company’s effective tax rate was
13.6
% for the three months ended
June 30, 2023
, compared to
41.4
% for the corresponding period in 2022 primarily due to pre-tax income differences and the amortization of excess deferred income taxes. The Company’s effective tax was
30.0
% for the six months ended
June 30, 2023, compared to
17.9
% for corresponding period in 2022 primarily due to amortization of excess deferred income taxes, corporate-owned life insurance, and the MountainWest sale, and includes the impact of book versus tax basis differences related to the transaction (See
Note 8 - Dispositions
).
Southwest’s effective tax rate was (
10.7
)% for the three months ended
June 30, 2023, compared to
50.9
% for the corresponding period in 2022 primarily due to pre-tax income differences, the amortization of excess deferred income taxes, and corporate-owned life insurance. Southwest’s effective tax rate was
15.6
% for the six months ended
June 30, 2023
, compared to
19.5
% in the corresponding period in 2022 primarily due to the amortization of excess accumulated deferred income taxes and corporate-owned life insurance.
In April 2023, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued Revenue Procedure 2023-15, which provides a safe harbor method of accounting that taxpayers may use to determine whether expenditures to repair, maintain, replace, or improve natural gas transmission and distribution property must be capitalized for tax purposes. The Company and Southwest are currently reviewing this revenue procedure to determine the potential impact on their financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
Contingencies.
In November 2021, the City Pension Fund for Firefighters and Police Officers in the City of Miami Beach (“City Pension Fund”) commenced a putative class action lawsuit in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware on behalf of a putative class of persons who purchased the Company’s stock. The action is captioned
City Pension Fund for Firefighters and Police Officers in the City of Miami Beach v. Robert L. Boughner, et al.
, C.A. No. 2021-0990-KSJM (Del. Ch.) and named the Company and the individual members of the Board as defendants. The complaint asserted breach of fiduciary duty claims, alleging that the Board’s recommendation that stockholders reject Icahn’s offer to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock omitted material information about the Company’s financial analysis; and sought to have the Board approve Icahn’s slate of nominees as “continuing directors” under certain of the Company’s debt instruments. The City Pension Fund filed a notice of

withdrawal of its motion for summary judgment in April 2022, and on August 2, 2023, the Delaware Court of Chancery dismissed the lawsuit without prejudice, based on a stipulation among the parties.
Recent Accounting Standards Updates.
There are no recently issued accounting standards updates that are expected to be adopted or material to Southwest or the Company effective in 2023 or thereafter.

Note 2 – Components of Net Periodic Benefit Cost
Southwest has a noncontributory qualified retirement plan with defined benefits covering substantially all employees for employees hired before 2022 and a separate unfunded supplemental retirement plan (“SERP”), which is limited to officers hired before 2022. Southwest also provides limited postretirement benefits other than pensions (“PBOP”) to its qualified retirees for health care, dental, and life insurance.
The service cost component of net periodic benefit costs included in the table below is a component of an overhead loading process associated with the cost of labor. The overhead process ultimately results in allocation of service cost to the same accounts to which productive labor is charged. As a result, service costs become components of various accounts, primarily operations and maintenance expense, net regulated operations plant, and deferred charges and other assets for both the Company and Southwest. The other components of net periodic benefit cost are reflected in Other income (deductions) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income of each entity. Variability in total net periodic benefit cost between periods, especially with regard to the Qualified Retirement Plan, is subject to changes in underlying actuarial assumptions between periods, notably the discount rate.

The revenue earned on contracts in progress in excess of billings primarily relates to Centuri’s right to consideration for work completed but not billed and/or approved for billing at the reporting date. These contract assets are transferred to contracts receivable when the rights become unconditional. The amounts billed in excess of revenue earned primarily relate to the advance consideration received from customers for which work has not yet been completed. The change in this contract liability balance from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023 increased due to amounts received for services not yet performed, net of revenue recognized.
For contracts that have an original duration of one year or less, Centuri uses the practical expedient applicable to such contracts and does not consider/compute an interest component based on the time value of money. Furthermore, because of the short duration of these contracts, Centuri has not disclosed the transaction price for the remaining performance obligations as of the end of each reporting period or when the Company expects to recognize the revenue.
As of June 30, 2023, Centuri h
ad
59
fixed price contracts with an original duration of more than one year. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligations of these contracts as of June 30, 2023 was $
426
million. Centuri expects to recognize the remaining performance obligations over approximately the next
two
years
; however, the timing of that recognition is largely within the control of the customer, including when the necessary materials required to complete the work are provided by the customer.

SOUTHWEST GAS HOLDINGS, INC.
Form 10-Q
SOUTHWEST GAS CORPORATION
June 30, 2023
Southwest has a $
400
million credit facility that is scheduled to expire in April 2025. Southwest designates $
150
million of associated capacity as long-term debt and the remaining $
250
million for working capital purposes. Interest rates for the credit facility are calculated at either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or an “alternate base rate,” plus in each case an applicable margin that is determined based on Southwest’s senior unsecured debt rating. At June 30, 2023, the applicable margi
n is
1.125
% for loans bearing interest with reference to SOFR and
0.125
% for loans bearing interest with reference to the alternative base rate. At June 30, 2023,
no
borrowings were outstanding on the long-te
rm portion (including under the commercial paper program), nor under the short-term portion of the facility.
Centuri has a $
1.545
billion secured revolving credit and term loan multi-currency facility. Amounts can be borrowed in either Canadian or U.S. dollars. The revolving credit facility matures on August 27, 2026 and the term loan facility matures on
August 27, 2028
. Interest rates for the revolving credit facility are based on SOFR or the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”), plus an applicable margin. The capacity of the line of credit portion of the facility is $
400
million; related amounts borrowed and repaid are available to be re-borrowed. On May 31, 2023, Centuri amended the interest rate benchmark for the term loan from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to SOFR; the applicable margin for the term loan is
1.50
% for base rate loans and
2.50
% for SOFR loans. All other terms of the revolving credit facility remained unchanged. The term loan portion of the facility has a limit of
$
1.145
billion
. The obligations under the credit agreement are secured by present and future ownership interests in substantially all direct and indirect subsidiaries of Centuri, substantially all of the tangible and intangible personal property of each borrower, certain of their direct and indirect subsidiaries, and all products, profits, and proceeds of the foregoing. Centuri’s assets securing the facility at June 30, 2023 totaled
$
2.6
billion
. At June 30, 2023,
$
1.184
billion
in borrowings were outstanding under Centuri’s combined secured revolving credit and term loan facility.
In March 2023, Southwest issued $
300
million aggregate principal amount of
5.450
% Senior Notes (the “March 2023 Notes”). The notes will mature in March 2028. Southwest used the net proceeds to repay amounts outstanding under its credit facility and the remainder for general corporate purposes.
In April 2023,
Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.
entered into a $
550
million Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan”) that matures in October 2024. Interest rates for the Term Loan are calculated, at the Company’s option, at either the SOFR plus an adjustment of
0.100
% or the “alternate base rate,” plus in each case an applicable margin. Loans bearing interest with reference to SOFR have an applicable margin of
1.300
% and loans bearing interest with reference to the alternate base rate have an applicable margin of
0.300
%. SOFR is calculated with a floor of
0.000
% and alternative base rate is calculated with a floor of
1.000
%. Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. utilized a majority of the proceeds to make an equity contribution to Southwest. On April 17, 2023, Southwest utilized the equity contribution to repay, in full, amounts outstanding under its
$
450
million
364-day
term loan, with the remainder of the equity contribution used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Short-Term Debt
Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. has a $
300
million credit facility that is scheduled to expire in December 2026 and is primarily used for short-term financing needs. Interest rates for the credit facility are calculated at either SOFR or the “alternate base rate,” plus in each case an applicable margin. There was
$
15.5
million
outstanding under this credit facility as of June 30, 2023.
As indicated above, under Southwest’s $
400
million credit facility,
no
short-term borrowings were outstanding at June 30, 2023.
LIBOR
Certain rates established at LIBOR were scheduled to be discontinued after 2021 as part of reference rate reform, while other LIBOR-based rates are scheduled to be discontinued after June 2023. As of June 30, 2023, Centuri (subsequent to amending its term loan, see above), Southwest, and Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. had
no
outstanding borrowings or variable rate debt agreements with reference to LIBOR.

As a result of this assertion, and no repatriation of earnings anticipated, the Company is not recognizing a tax effect or presenting a tax expense or benefit for currency translation adjustments reported in Other comprehensive income (loss).

The corporate and administrative activities for Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. in the three months ending June 30, 2023 include approximately $
8
million of interest expense, including amounts incurred under the
$
550
million
Term Loan entered into in April 2023, along with $
2.5
million in costs associated with the planned separation of Centuri, additional legal indemnity and other costs incurred pursuant to the terms of the MountainWest sale agreement with Williams, and other professional services/consulting arrangements, including an undertaking associated with the identification of business optimization opportunities, related benchmarking, and assessment.
The six-month and twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2023 incrementally include, among other things, additional amounts related to commitments under the sale agreement with Williams in regard to MountainWest, including a charge of $
28.4
million from the post-closing rate case settlement agreement for MountainWest Overthrust Pipeline (pending Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the “FERC”) approval); and an additional $
21
million reflecting the final post-closing payment of $
7.4
million related to cash and net working capital balances above/below a contract benchmark, with the remaining charge associated with other changes in the assets and liabilities that were not subject to post-closing payment true-up provisions. The post-closing payment of $
7.4
million returned approximately the same amount initially paid by Williams to the Company at closing. Other corporate and administrative amounts during the year-to-date period also reflect residual costs associated with or as a result of the MountainWest sale, as well as $
21.9
million of interest expense, including amounts noted above in the second quarter of 2023 and amounts under the loan entered into by Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. in November 2021 in connection with the acquisition of MountainWest prior to it being paid in full in March 2023 (including $
2.5
million in debt issuance costs written off when the debt was repaid). The twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023 included $
55.8
million of interest expense under the aforementioned MountainWest acquisition loan, the other items noted above, as well as $
12.5
million in combined costs associated with stockholder activism and the associated proxy contest, and costs of a strategic review initiative initiated in 2022. The amounts related to the MountainWest sale, including the rate case settlement, and post-closing adjustments, are included in Goodwill impairment and loss on sale on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.
Note 8 - Dispositions
Dispositions
In December 2022, the Company announced that the Board unanimously determined to take strategic actions to simplify the Company’s portfolio of businesses. These actions included entering into a definitive agreement to sell
100
% of MountainWest to Williams for $
1.5
billion in total enterprise value, subject to certain adjustments. The MountainWest sale closed on February 14, 2023. Additionally, the Company determined it will pursue a spin-off of Centuri to form a new independent publicly traded utility infrastructure services company. The Centuri spin-off is currently expected to be completed towards the end of the first quarter of 2024 and to be tax free to the Company and its stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The separation of Centuri will be subject to, among other things, finalizing the transaction structure, final approval by the Board, approval by the ACC, the receipt of a favorable private letter ruling by the IRS relating to the tax-free nature of the transaction, and the effectiveness of a registration statement to be filed with the SEC. The application for the private letter ruling was filed with the IRS in March 2023, and the application to the ACC was filed in April 2023 and approved in June 2023. The Company confidentially submitted a draft Registration Statement on Form 10 relating to the spin-off to the SEC in the second quarter of 2023.

The fair value of the MountainWest assets held-for-sale was previously estimated based on the preliminary closing statement and subject to certain adjustments, including a post-closing payment between the parties related to final working capital balances. The amount of the post-closing payment was finalized in May 2023. The Company recognized an additional loss on sale of approximately $
21
million during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. This reflects the accrued post-closing payment of $
7.4
million related to cash and net working capital balances above/below a contractual benchmark, with the remaining charge associated with other changes in the assets and liabilities that were not subject to post-closing payment true-up provisions. The post-closing payment of $
7.4
million effectively returned approximately the same amount initially paid by Williams to the Company at closing. The $
7.4
million reduced Proceeds from the sale of businesses, net of cash acquired in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
As referred to in
Note 7 – Segment Information
, in September 2022, the FERC issued an order initiating an investigation, pursuant to section 5 of the Natural Gas Act, to determine whether rates charged by MountainWest Overthrust Pipeline, LLC, a subsidiary of MountainWest, were just and reasonable and setting the matter for hearing (the “Section 5 Rate Case”). Unless earlier settled by the parties, a hearing on the matter was to commence on August 1, 2023 with an initial decision from the presiding administrative law judge due by November 14, 2023. Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement entered into in connection with the MountainWest sale, the Company is obligated, for a period of
four years
following the closing of the MountainWest sale, to indemnify Williams and MountainWest for any damages and liabilities resulting from the Section 5 Rate Case, including any reduction to the current applicable rate, up to a cap of $
75
million. Williams agreed not to enter into any settlement of the Section 5 Rate Case that would result in damages being paid by the Company under the indemnity arrangement without prior written consent of the Company. In March 2023, the parties agreed to a settlement, which is pending approval by the FERC. As a result, the Company recorded an additional estimated loss of $
28.4
million from the disposal of MountainWest in the first quarter of 2023, which is included in Goodwill impairment and loss on sale in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. Other contingent commitments were part of the agreement as well, expenses for which have been immaterial to date and are expected to continue to be immaterial overall.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. is a holding company that owns all of the shares of common stock of Southwest Gas Corporation (“Southwest” or the “natural gas distribution” segment) and all of the shares of common stock of Centuri Group, Inc. (“Centuri,” or the “utility infrastructure services” segment). Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.”
In December 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) unanimously determined to take strategic actions to simplify the Company’s portfolio of businesses. These actions included entering into a definitive agreement to sell 100% of MountainWest in an all-cash transaction that closed on February 14, 2023. Additionally, the Company determined it would pursue a spin-off of Centuri (the “Centuri spin-off”), to form a new independent publicly traded utility infrastructure services company. The Centuri spin-off is currently expected to be completed towards the end of the first quarter of 2024 and to be tax free to the Company and its stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See
Note 8 - Dispositions
for more information.
Southwest is engaged in the business of purchasing, distributing, and transporting natural gas for customers in portions of Arizona, Nevada, and California. Southwest is the largest distributor of natural gas in Arizona and Nevada, and distributes and transports natural gas for customers in portions of California. Additionally, through its subsidiaries, Southwest operates two regulated interstate pipelines serving portions of Southwest’s service territories.
As of June 30, 2023, Southwest
had 2,207,000 residential, commercial, industrial, and other natural gas customers, of which 1,182,000 customers were located in Arizona, 820,000 in Nevada, and 205,000 i
n California.
Over the past twelve months, first-time meter sets were approximately
42,000
, compared to 39,000 for the twelve months ended June 2022.
Resi
dential and small commercial customers represented over 99% of th
e total customer base. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2023,
54% of operating margin (Regulated operations revenues less the net cost of gas sold) was earned in Arizona, 34% in Nevada, and 12% in Cal
ifornia. During this same period, Southwe
st earned 84% of its operating margin from residential and small commercial customers, 5% from other sales customers, and 11% from transportation customers. These patterns are expected to remain materially consistent for the foreseeable future.
Southwest recognizes operating revenues from the distribution and transportation of natural gas (and related services) to customers. Operating margin is a financial measure defined by management as Regulated operations revenues less the net cost of gas sold. However, operating margin is not specifically defined in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Thus, operating margin is considered a non-GAAP measure. Management uses this financial measure because Regulated operations revenues include the net cost of gas sold, which is a tracked cost that is passed through to
29
customers without markup under purchased gas adjustment (“PGA”) mechanisms. Fluctuations in the net cost of gas sold impact revenues on a dollar-for-dollar basis, but do not impact operating margin or operating income. Therefore, management believes operating margin provides investors and other interested parties with useful and relevant information to analyze Southwest’s financial performance in a rate-regulated environment. The principal factors affecting changes in operating margin are general rate relief (including impacts of infrastructure trackers) and customer growth. Commission decisions on the amount and timing of relief may impact our earnings. Refer to the Summary Operating Results table below for a reconciliation of gross margin to operating margin, and refer to
Rates and Regulatory Proceedings
in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for details of various rate proceedings.
The demand for natural gas is seasonal, with greater demand in the colder winter months and decreased demand in the warmer summer months. All of Southwest’s service territories have decoupled rate structures (alternative revenue programs), which are designed to eliminate the direct link between volumetric sales and revenue, thereby mitigating the impacts of unusual weather variability and conservation on operating margin, allowing Southwest to pursue energy efficiency initiatives.
Centuri is a strategic infrastructure services company that partners with regulated utilities to build and maintain the energy network that powers millions of homes and businesses across the United States (“U.S.”) and Canada. With an unwavering commitment to serve as long-term partners to customers and communities, Centuri’s employees enable regulated utilities to safely and reliably deliver natural gas and electricity, as well as achieve their goals for environmental sustainability. Centuri operates i
n 87 primary locations across 45 s
tates and provinces in the U.S. and Canada. Centuri operates in the U.S., primarily as NPL, Neuco, Linetec, and Riggs Distler, and in Canada, primarily as NPL Canada.
Utility infrastructure services activity can be impacted by changes in infrastructure replacement programs of utilities, weather, and local and federal regulation (including tax rates and incentives). Utilities continue to implement or modify system integrity management programs to enhance safety pursuant to federal and state mandates. These programs have resulted in multi-year utility system replacement projects throughout the U.S. Likewise, there has been similar attention placed on electric grid modernization through national infrastructure legislation and related initiatives. The Department of Energy estimates more than 70% of the nation’s grid transmission lines and power transformers are over 25 years old, creating vulnerability exacerbated by seasonal storm and extreme weather events.
Generally, Centuri revenues are lowest during the first quarter of the year due to less favorable winter weather conditions. Revenues typically improve as more favorable weather conditions occur during the summer and fall months. In cases of severe weather, such as following a regional storm, Centuri may be engaged to perform restoration activities related to above-ground utility infrastructure, and related results impacts are not solely within the control of management. In addition, in certain circumstances, such as with large bid contracts (especially those of a longer duration), or unit-price contracts with revenue caps, results may be impacted by differences between costs incurred and those anticipated when the work was originally bid. Work awarded, or failing to be awarded, by individual large customers can impact operating results.
All of our businesses may be impacted by economic conditions that impact businesses generally, such as inflationary impacts on goods and services consumed in the business, rising interest rates, labor markets and costs (including in regard to contracted or professional services), and the availability of those resources. Certain of these impacts may be more predominant in certain of our operations, such as with regard to fuel costs for work equipment and skilled/trade labor costs at Centuri.

Results from natural gas distribution operatio
ns improve
d $21.4 million between the second quarters of 2023 and 2022. The improvement was primarily due to an increase in Operating margin and Other income (deductions) and a decrease in Operations and maintenance expense, offset by increases in Depreciation and amortization and Net interest deductions.
Operating margin increased $25.5 million quarter over quarter. Approximately $3 million of incremental margin was attributable to customer growth, including 42,000 first-time meter sets during the last twelve months. Combined rate relief added approximately $14 million of combined margin, nearly all of which relates to our recently concluded Arizona case. Additionally, a $16 million increase in recovery/return associated with regulatory account balances contributed to the increase; an associated comparable increase is also reflected in amortization expense between periods (discussed below). Included in the $16 million is a mostly timing-related item associated with approximately $10 million returned to customers during the second quarter of 2022 under a California climate credit program, whereas the annual return to customers (of approximately $11 million) occurred during the first quarter in 2023. Partially offsetting collective favorable impacts to margin between periods was Vintage Steel Pipe (“VSP”) and Customer-owned Yard Line (“COYL”) revenue in Arizona, which (combined) decreased approximately $2 million between the comparable second quarter periods. The remaining variance primarily relates to miscellaneous revenue and customers outside of the decoupling mechanism.
Operations and maintenance expense decreased $3.1 million between quarters primarily due to an $8 million decrease in legal claim-related expenses between periods, offset by an increase in external contractor and professional services costs in various areas of the business, including a consulting arrangement for the identification, benchmarking, and assessment of business optimization opportunities ($2 million), as well as increases in other costs, including with regard to leak survey, line locating, and uncollectible customer accounts.
Depreciation and amortization exp
ense
increased $18.9 million, or 34%,
betwee
n quarters, primarily d
ue
to the timing item noted in regard to the California climate credit program and other increases in regulatory account amortization, discussed above ($16 million combined between quarters). The remaining increase was a result of a $552 million, or 6%, increase in average gas plant in service since the corresponding second quarter of 2022. The increase in plant was attributable to pipeline capacity reinforcement work, franchise requirements, scheduled pipe replacement activities, and new infrastructure.
Other income increased $22.2 million. Interest income increased $11.3 million between quarters related to carrying charges associated with regulatory account balances, notably deferred purchased gas cost balances, whi
ch increased fr
om $355 million
as of June 30, 2022 to $786 million as of June 30, 2023. Th
e non-service-related components of employee pension and other postretirement benefit costs decreased $5.4 million between quarters. Southwest also recognized a $9.1 million increase in COLI results, inclusive of net death benefits of $1.6 million, compared to the comparable quarter in the prior year. Offsetting these impacts was $3.25 million related to an uncompleted software project deemed non-recoverable from utility operations.
32
Net interest deductions
increased $8.5 million
in the second quarter of 2023, as compared to the prior-year quarter, primarily due
to interest associated with $300 million of Senior Notes issued in December 2022 and $300 million of Senior Notes issued in March 2023.

Contribution from natural gas distribution operations to consolidated net income increased $44 million between the first six
months of 2023 and 2022. The increase was primarily due to increases in Operating margin and Other income (deductions), offset by an increase in Depreciation and amortization, Operations and maintenance, and Net interest deductions.
Operating margin increased $59.8 million,
including
$8 million
attributable to customer growth. Rate relief contributed an additional $28 million. Amounts related to the recovery/return associated with other regulatory programs of $15 million also contributed to the increase; such amounts also increase amortization expense below. Additionally, an $8 million out-of-period adjusting entry was made in the first quarter of 2023, which reduced Net cost of gas sold (See
Basis of Presentation
in
Note 1 – Background, Organization, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).
Operations and maintenance expense increased $8.5 million between periods, including increases in external contractor and professional services expenses in various areas of the business ($4 million), including $2 million for the optimization initiative noted earlier, as well as $3 million associated with customer-provided fuel for pipeline operations (offset in Operating margin) and approximately $2 million in vehicle/equipment fuel and related costs. A variety of other cost increases related to leak survey and line locating activities, reserves for customer accounts deemed uncollectible, and general office and related expenses were offset by approximately $7 million reduction in legal and claim-related costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $21.5 million, or 17%, between periods primarily due to the increase in amortization related to regulatory account recoveries of approximately $15 million between periods, which is also reflected in Operating margin above. The additional increase was a result of a $542 million, or 6%, increase in average gas plant in service between periods. The increase in plant was attributable to pipeline reinforcement work, franchise requirements, scheduled pipe replacement activities, and new infrastructure.
Other income (deductions) increased $39.3 million. Interest income increased $21 million between periods related to carrying charges associated with regulatory account balances, notably deferred purchased gas cost balances, which have increased substantially since the comparable period in the the prior year.
Th
e non-service-related components of employee pension and other postretirement benefit costs decreased $10.6 million between periods. Southwest also recognized a $13.5 million increase in COLI policy cash surrender values and recognized death benefits in the current period compared to the comparable period in the prior year.
Net interest deductions increased $20 million between periods primarily due to interest associated with $600 million of Senior Notes issued in March 2022, $300 million of Senior Notes issued in December 2022, and $300 million of Senior Notes issued in March 2023. Additionally, increased interest resulted from short-term debt, primarily a $450 million term loan issued in January 2023 (paid off in full in April 2023).

Contribution from natural gas distribution operations to consolidated net income increased approximately $32 million between the twelve-month periods ended June 2023 and 2022. The increase was due primarily to increases in Operating margin and Other income (deductions), offset by an increase in Operations and maintenance expense, Depreciation and amortization, and Net interest deductions.
Operating margin increased $86 million between periods. Customer growth provided $14 million, and combined rate relief provided $32 million of incremental operating margin. Approved VSP and COYL revenue in Arizona contributed to the improvement between periods ($13 million), as did recovery surcharges associated with regulatory account balances ($17 million). The $8 million out-of-period adjustment to Net cost of gas sold during the first quarter of 2023 also contributed to the increase.
Operations and maintenance expense increased $24 million between periods. In addition to general increases in a variety of general office, labor and insurance expenses, specific increases related to external contractor and professional services in various areas of the business ($10 million), leak survey and line locating costs ($5 million), reserves for customer accounts deemed uncollectible ($6 million), and in the cost of fuel used in operations ($8 million), partially offset by a $13.2 million reduction in legal and claim-related expenses.
Depreciation and amortization exp
ense
increased $29 million, or 12%, between periods
due to a
$531 million, or 6%, increase
in average gas plant in service since the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase in gas plant was attributable to pipeline capacity reinforcement work, franchise requirements, scheduled pipe replacement activities, and new infrastructure. Additionally, an increase in
amortization of regulatory account balances of $17 million, as discussed in regard to Operating margin above, contributed to the increase.
Other income increased $38 million between the twelve-month periods of 2023 and 2022. Interest income increased $28 million between periods related to carrying charges associated with the significant increase in deferred purchased gas cost balances and interest on other regulatory account balances. Non-service-related components of employee pension and other postretirement benefit costs decreased $17.2 million between periods. Southwest also recognized a $12.3 million increase in COLI results between periods. Offsetting these impacts were $12 million related to uncompleted software projects deemed non-recoverable from utility operations, and $3 million in market adjustments on other property in 2022.
Net interest deductions increased $30 million between periods primarily due to $600 million of Senior Notes issued in March 2022, $300 million of Senior Notes issued in December 2022, and $300 million of Senior Notes issued in March 2023. Other impacts include increased interest associated with a higher amount of short-term debt and higher rates on variable-debt overall, including under Southwest’s credit facility.
Income tax expense in both periods includes the amortization of Excess Accumulated Deferred Income Taxes (“EADIT”), which reduces tax expense as amounts are returned to customers through the billing process; tax expense also gives effect for COLI results, which are without tax impacts, similar to the non-taxable nature of death benefit proceeds under the associated insurance policies.

Utility infrastructure services revenues increased $99.7 million in the second quarter of 2023 when compared to the prior-year quarter, driven primarily by a $54.7 million increase in electric infrastructure revenues and a $26 million increase in offshore wind revenue, which is reflected as a component of other revenues (refer to
Note 3 – Revenue
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). Offshore wind revenue stems from three multi-year contracts whereby Centuri provides materials, subcontracts manufacturing, and self-performs fabrication and assembly of secondary steel components onshore, with delivery at a port facility. The increase in electric infrastructure services revenues was due to growth from both new and existing customers as well as revenues of $33.9 million from emergency restoration services following tornado and other storm damage to customers’ above-ground utility infrastructure in and around the Gulf Coast and eastern regions of the U.S., compared to $4.9 million in storm restoration work in the prior-year quarter. Centuri’s revenues derived from storm-related services vary from period to period due to the unpredictable nature of weather-related events, and when this type of work is performed, it typically generates a higher profit margin than core infrastructure services, due to improved operating efficiencies related to equipment utilization and absorption of fixed costs. The current quarter also included increased gas infrastructure services revenues of $14.6 million primarily resulting from
$49.2 million
o
f revenue related to a new bid contract that commenced during the first quarter of 2023, offset by lower volumes under certain existing customer master service agreements. Favorable weather in several operating locations, which allowed projects in those areas to be completed during an otherwise seasonally slow period also contributed to the increase.
Utility infrastructure services expenses increased $69.5 million in the second quarter of 2023 when compared to the prior-year quarter, driven primarily by a higher volume of work. Subcontractor costs increased during the second quarter of 2023 compared to the prior-year quarter primarily due to increased work under offshore wind projects. Despite continued inflationary pressures, operating margin in the second quarter of 2023 improved due to changes in the mix of work and increased operating efficiencies related to emergency restoration services, lower fuel prices, as well as favorable weather conditions in other locations between quarters. Also included in total Utility infrastructure services expenses were general and administrative costs, which increased approximately $2.5 million between quarters primarily due to higher incentive compensation based on improved results, partially offset by lower strategic review costs incurred. Gains on sale of equipment in the second quarter of 2023 and 2022 (reflected as an offset to Utility infrastructure services expenses) were approximately $1.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $2 million between quarters, primarily attributable to a $1.1 million decrease in amortization expense at Riggs Distler related to an acquired backlog intangible asset becoming fully amortized during 2022.
The increase in net interest deductions of $11.9 million included higher interest rates on outstanding variable-rate borrowings.
Income tax expense increased $6.3 million between quarters, primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income in 2023.

Utility infrastructure services revenues
increased $229.1 million in the first six months of 2023 when compared to the same period in the prior year, driven primarily by a $106.4 million increase in electric infrastructure revenues and a $69.3 million increase in offshore wind revenue, which is reflected as a component of other revenues. The increase in electric infrastructure services revenues during the first six months of 2023 was due to growth from both new and existing customers as well as revenues of $64.5 million from emergency restoration services following tornado and other storm damage to customers’ above-ground utility infrastructure in and around the Gulf Coast and eastern regions of the U.S., compared to $19 million in storm restoration work in the same period in the prior year. The current six month period also included $51.3 million of increased gas infrastructure services revenues primarily resulting from $78.9 million of revenue related to a new bid contract that commenced during the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by lower volumes under certain existing customer master service agreements.
Utility infrastructure services expenses increased $170 million in the first six months of 2023 when compared to the same period in the prior year, driven primarily by a higher volume of work. Subcontractor costs increased during the first six months of 2023 compared to the prior year primarily due to increased work under offshore wind projects. Despite continued inflationary pressures, operating margin in the first six months of 2023 improved due to changes in the mix of work and increased operating efficiencies related to emergency restoration services, lower fuel prices, and favorable weather conditions in certain locations between periods. Also included in total Utility infrastructure services expenses were general and administrative costs, which increased approximately $2.4 million between periods primarily due to higher incentive compensation based on improved results, partially offset by lower strategic review costs incurred. Gains on sale of equipment (reflected as an offset to Utility infrastructure services expenses) were approximately $1.8 million and $2 million, during the first six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $1.7 million between periods, primarily attributable to decreased amortization expense of Riggs Distler related to the acquired backlog intangible asset becoming fully amortized during 2022.
The increase in net interest deductions of $23.2 million was primarily due to higher interest rates on outstanding variable-rate borrowings.
Income tax expense increased $11.3 million during the first six months of 2023, primarily due to increased pre-tax income in 2023.

Rates and Regulatory Proceedings
Southwest is subject to the regulation of the Arizona Corporation Commission (“ACC”), the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (the “PUCN”), the California Public Utilities Commission (the “CPUC”), and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (the “FERC”).
Arizona Jurisdiction
Arizona General Rate Case.
Southwest filed a general rate case application in December 2021, primarily to reflect in rates the substantial capital investments that were made since the end of the test year in an earlier case, including investments in a customer information system implemented in May 2021. At a hearing held in September 2022, Southwest, the Utilities Division Staff (the “Staff”), and the Residential Utility Consumer Office jointly stipulated to several issues, including a target capital structure consisting of 50% equity and 50% debt; a 9.30% return on equity; and foregoing a premium related to the Graham County acquisition as well as the recovery of $12 million of waived late fees on customer account balances that would have otherwise applied to delinquent accounts in the absence of a COVID-19 moratorium on such fees. Approximately $12 million in costs related to the Liquefied Natural Gas facility deferred in an authorized regulatory asset was approved to be amortized over four years. The ACC’s final order authorized a $54.3 million increase, with new rates effective February 1, 2023.
Delivery Charge Adjustment.
The Delivery Charge Adjustment (“DCA”) is filed each April, which along with other reporting requirements, contemplates a rate to recover/return the over- or under-collected margin tracker (decoupling mechanism) balance. An April 2022 request proposed a rate to return $10.5 million, the over-collected balance existing at the end of the first quarter 2022, which became effective July 1, 2022. The most recent filing was made in April 2023 to request a rate to address the over-collected balance of $53.5 million existing as of March 31, 2023. The requested rate to return the over-collected balance was approved and will become effective August 1, 2023.
Tax Reform.
A Tax Expense Adjustor Mechanism (“TEAM”) was approved in Southwest’s 2019 general rate case to timely recognize tax rate changes resulting from federal or state tax legislation following the TEAM implementation. In addition, the TEAM tracks and returns/recovers the revenue requirement impact of changes in amortization of EADIT (including that which resulted from 2017 U.S. federal tax reform) compared to the amount authorized in the most recently concluded rate case. Following inaugural surcredit rate establishment under the TEAM mechanism, in December 2022, Southwest filed its most recent TEAM rate application, proposing to update the TEAM surcredit to refund $6.5 million of estimated net EADIT savings, which was approved by the ACC and was made effective May 1, 2023.
Customer-Owned Yard Line (“COYL”) Program
. Southwest originally received approval, in connection with its 2010 Arizona general rate case, to implement a program to conduct leak surveys, and if leaks were present, to replace and relocate service lines and meters for Arizona customers whose meters were set off from the customer’s home, representing a non-traditional configuration. The COYL program has been subject to proceedings to recover investments since that time. In February 2023, Southwest requested approval to recover the outstanding revenue requirement of approximately $4.3 million associated with 2022 COYL investments, which will increase the COYL recovery rate. The new rate became effective July 1, 2023.
PGA Modification
. On March 1, 2023, Southwest filed a request to adjust the interest rate applicable to the outstanding Purchased Gas Adjustment (“PGA”) balance to more closely match the interest expense incurred to finance the balance. In the alternative, the filing requested an expansion of the current gas cost balancing account (“GCBA”) adjustment to clear the then existing $351 million balance. In July, the ACC approved an increase to the GCBA rate (over a two-year period) effective August 1, 2023, to support the timely recovery of the approximately $358 million balance as of May 31, 2023. The increased GCBA rate will remain for two years or until the balance drops below $10 million, at which point the GCBA rate would be set to $0.00 per therm, where it will remain until the under collected balance exceeds $10 million or the over collected balance exceeds negative $10 million. The ongoing deferred energy rates, separate from the GCBA rates, continue to be updated monthly.
California Jurisdiction
Attrition Filing.
Following the 2021 implementation of rates approved as part of the most recent general rate case, the continuation of annual Post Test Year (“PTY”) attrition increases of 2.75% began in January 2022, with the most recent annual attrition increase effective January 1, 2023. The PTY increase associated with the North Lake Tahoe Lateral revenue requirement became effective February 1, 2023.
Carbon Offset Program.
In March 2022, Southwest filed an application to seek approval to offer a voluntary program to California customers to purchase carbon offsets in an effort to provide customers additional options to offset their respective greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions. A request to establish a two-way balancing account to track program-related costs and revenues was included as part of the application. The CPUC issued a decision dismissing Southwest’s application without
38
prejudice. Southwest anticipates filing a new application in 2023 addressing points raised by third parties as part of the earlier request, which included a request to demonstrate that purchased offsets would result in actual GHG emissions reductions.
Nevada Jurisdiction
Nevada General Rate Case
. Southwest concluded its most recent Nevada general rate case in February 2022, providing for a statewide revenue increase of $14.05 million, a return on common equity of 9.40% relative to a 50% target equity ratio, and continuation of Southwest’s full revenue decoupling mechanism, the General Revenues Adjustment (“GRA”). The stipulation was approved by the PUCN, and new rates became effective April 1, 2022.
General Revenues Adjustment.
As noted above, the continuation of the GRA was affirmed as part of Southwest’s most recent general rate case with an expansion to include a large customer class (with average monthly throughput requirements greater than 15,000 therms), effective April 2022. Southwest makes Annual Rate Adjustment (“ARA”) filings to update rates to recover or return amounts associated with various regulatory mechanisms, including the GRA. Southwest made its most recent ARA filing in November 2022 related to balances as of September 30, 2022. Given the magnitude of the outstanding balances, further discussion with the parties resulted in a settlement of the issues and utilizing a more current GRA balance as of January 2023 to more closely align the rates implemented with the existing balance. Recovery rates and adjustments thereto as part of the ARA primarily impact cash flows but not net income overall. Updated rates for the GRA and other regulatory mechanisms included in the ARA became effective July 1, 2023.
Carbon Offset Program.
In June 2021, Southwest filed an application to seek approval to offer a voluntary program to northern and southern Nevada customers to purchase carbon offsets in an effort to provide customers additional options to offset their respective GHG emissions. A request to establish a regulatory asset to track program-related costs and revenues was included as part of the application. The parties reached a stipulation that was approved by the PUCN in December 2021, approving Southwest’s proposal. The program opened for customer participation in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Nevada Leak Survey.
In 2019, the PUCN opened an Investigation and Rulemaking action to consider certain amendments to the Nevada Administrative Code requiring annual leak surveys of distribution pipelines transporting natural gas or liquid petroleum. The increased survey activity was to focus on business districts and to be conducted generally on an annual basis (not exceeding 15-month survey intervals). The proposed regulations were permanently adopted with a January 1, 2023 effective date. Regulatory asset treatment was approved for the purpose of tracking incremental costs associated with implementing the increased leak surveys with recovery expected in the next general rate case.
FERC Jurisdiction
MountainWest Overthrust Pipeline.
On September 22, 2022, during the period of Southwest Gas Holdings’ ownership of the MountainWest entities, the FERC issued an order initiating an investigation, pursuant to section 5 of the Natural Gas Act, to determine whether rates charged by MountainWest Overthrust Pipeline, LLC, a subsidiary of MountainWest, were just and reasonable and setting the matter for hearing (the “Section 5 Rate Case”). Unless earlier settled by the parties, a hearing on the matter was to commence in August 2023 with an initial decision from the presiding administrative law judge due by November 14, 2023. Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement entered into in connection with the MountainWest sale, the Company became obligated, for a period of four years following the closing of the MountainWest sale, to indemnify Williams and MountainWest for any damages and liabilities resulting from the Section 5 Rate Case, including any reduction to the current applicable rate, up to a cap of $75 million. Williams, in collaboration with the Company, agreed to a settlement of the Section 5 Rate Case, which is pending approval by the FERC. As a result of the settlement, the Company recorded a charge of $28.4 million, the amount expected to be obligated in regard to the revenue reduction of the settlement, which was recognized during the first quarter of 2023 in Goodwill impairment and loss on sale, and continues to be reflected as such on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the six- and twelve- months ended June 30, 2023.
PGA Filings
The rate schedules in all of Southwest’s service territories contain provisions that permit adjustment to rates as the cost of purchased gas changes. These deferred energy provisions and purchased gas adjustment clauses are collectively referred to as “PGA” clauses. Differences between gas costs recovered from customers and amounts paid for gas by Southwest result in over- or under-collections. Balances are recovered from or refunded to customers on an ongoing basis with interest. As of June 30, 2023, under-collections in each of Southwest’s service territories resulted in an asset of
$786 million
on the Company’s and Southwest’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Filings to change rates in accordance with PGA clauses are subject to audit by state regulatory commission staffs. PGA changes impact cash flows but have no direct impact on operating margin. However, gas cost deferrals and recoveries can impact comparisons between periods of individual consolidated income statement components. These include Regulated operations revenues, Net cost of gas sold, Net interest deductions, and Other income (deductions).

Capital Resources and Liquidity
Historically, cash on hand and cash flows from operations have provided a substantial portion of cash used in investing activities (primarily for construction expenditures and property additions). In recent years, Southwest has undertaken significant pipe replacement activities to fortify system integrity and reliability, including on an accelerated basis in association with certain gas infrastructure replacement programs. This activity has necessitated the issuance of both debt and equity securities to supplement cash flows from operations. More recently, a number of conditions, such as winter storms and market forces (including historically low storage levels) have caused gas prices to spike and remain higher during extended periods as compared to previous historical levels. The Company’s capitalization strategy is to maintain an appropriate balance of equity and debt to preserve investment-grade credit ratings, which help minimize interest costs.
Cash Flows
Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.:
Operating Cash Flows.
Cash flows from consolidated operating activities decreased $251 million in the first six months of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022. The decline in cash flows primarily resulted from the impacts of changes in components of working capital overall, including the timing and amount of accounts payable and other current asset and liability balances. Additionally, the decline was impacted by the change in purchased gas costs for Southwest, including amounts incurred and deferred, as well as impacts related to when amounts are incorporated in customer bills to recover or return deferred balances. Amounts were greatly impacted due to higher than expected natural gas costs during the most recent winter period, which was reflected in higher Deferred purchased gas cost balances in advance of rates to recover the balance.
Corporate and administrative expenses/outflows for Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. in the six- and twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2023 mainly include charges related to the MountainWest sale that closed in February 2023, interest paid on borrowings, and costs associated with the Centuri spin-off.
Investing Cash Flows.
Cash flows from consolidated investing activities increased $1 billion in the first six months of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022. The overall increase was driven by $1.05 billion in proceeds received in connection with the MountainWest sale (which is net of cash sold), partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures in both the natural gas distribution and utility infrastructure services segments.
Financing Cash Flows.
Cash flows from consolidated financing activities decreased $641 million in the first six months of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022. The overall decrease was primarily due to the first quarter 2023 repayment ($1.1 billion) of the term loan entered into by Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. in November 2021 in connection with the acquisition of MountainWest. Other impacts included proceeds from the issuance of common stock in underwritten public offerings in each period ($200 million lower than in the 2022 period), $300 million of Senior Notes (the “March 2023 Notes”) issued by Southwest compared to $600 million in notes issued by Southwest in the first quarter of 2022. In March 2023, Southwest repaid the remaining indebtedness ($225 million) related to a $250 million Term Loan (the “March 2021 Term Loan”), whereas, in the first six months of 2022, Southwest repaid $300 million, including $275 million related to two maturing debt obligations and $25 million in regard to a portion of the March 2021 Term Loan. Separately, Southwest Gas Holdings entered into a $550 million Term Loan Credit Agreement in April 2023. A substantial portion of the term loan proceeds were contributed to Southwest as equity, which in turn was primarily used by Southwest to repay term loan indebtedness entered into to finance an escalation in purchased gas costs. Other financing cash flows include borrowings and repayment under the companies’ credit facilities.
The capital requirements and resources of the Company generally are determi
ned independently for the individual business segments. Each business segment is generally responsible for securing its own debt financing sources. However, the holding company may raise funds through stock issuances or other external financing sources in support of each business segment.
40
Southwest Gas Corporation:
Operating Cash Flows.
Cash flows from operating activities decreased $189 million in the first six months of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022. The decline in operating cash flows was primarily attributable to Deferred purchased gas costs changes and the other working capital balances (as discussed above).
Investing Cash Flows.
Cash used in investing activities increased $112 million in the first six months of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022. The change was primarily due to increases in capital expenditures in 2023 and decreases related to customer advances for construction (amounts collected and/or returned) as compared to the same period in the prior year. See also
Gas Segment Construction Expenditures, and Debt Maturities, and Financing
below.
Financing Cash Flows.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased $379 million in the first six months of 2023 as compared to the same period of 2022. The increase was primarily due to $530 million in parent capital contributions in the current period, offset by the $225 million repayment of the March 2021 Term Loan. A $450 million term loan in January 2023 to finance the escalation in purchased gas cost (noted above), was repaid following the parent capital contribution in the second quarter of 2023. Dividends paid and borrowing and repayment activity under the credit facility comprise the remaining activity between periods. See
Note 5 – Debt
.
Gas Segment Construction Expenditures, Debt Maturities, and Financing
During the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023, construction expenditures for the natural gas distribution segment were $771 million (not including amounts incurred for capital expenditures not yet paid). The majority of these expenditures represented costs associated with the replacement of existing transmission and distribution pipeline facilities to fortify system integrity and reliability, as well as other general plant expenditures.
Management estimates natural gas segment construction expenditures during the three-year period ending December 31, 2025 will be approximately $2.0 billion. Of this amount, approximately $700 million to $720 million is expected to be incurred during calendar year 2023. Southwest plans to continue to request regulatory support to undertake projects, or to accelerate projects as necessary for the improvement of system flexibility and reliability, or to expand, where relevant, to unserved or underserved areas. Southwest may expand existing, or initiate new, programs. Significant replacement activities are expected to continue well beyond the next few years. See also
Rates and Regulatory Proceedings
. During the three-year period ending December 31, 2025, cash flows from operating activities of Southwest are expected to provide approximately 75% of the funding for
gas operations
of Southwest and total construction expenditures and dividend requirements. Additional cash requirements, including construction-related, and pay down or refinancing of debt, are expected to be provided by existing credit facilities, equity contributions from the Company, and/or other external financing sources. The timing, types, and amounts of additional external financings will be dependent on a number of factors, including the cost of gas purchases, conditions in capital markets, timing and amount of rate relief, timing and amount of surcharge collections from, or amounts returned to, customers related to other regulatory mechanisms and programs, as well as growth levels in Southwest’s service areas and earnings. External financings may include the issuance of debt securities, bank and other short-term borrowings, and other forms of financing.
Dividend Policy
Dividends are payable on the Company’s common stock at the discretion of the Board. In setting the dividend rate, the Board considers, among other factors, current and expected future earnings levels, our ongoing capital expenditure plans, expected external funding needs, and our ability to maintain investment-grade credit ratings and liquidity. The Company has paid dividends on its common stock since 1956
. In February 2023, the Board determined to maintain the quarterly divid
end at $0.62 per share
, effective with the June 2023 payment.
Liquidity
Several factors (some of which are out of the control of the Company) that could significantly affect liquidity in the future include: variability of natural gas prices, changes in ratemaking policies of regulatory commissions, regulatory lag, customer growth in the natural gas distribution segment, the ability to access and obtain capital from external sources, interest rates, changes in income tax laws, pension funding requirements, inflation, and the level of earnings. Natural gas prices and related gas cost recovery rates, as well as plant investment, have historically had the most significant impact on liquidity.
On an interim basis, Southwest defers over- or under-collections of gas costs to PGA balancing accounts. In addition, Southwest uses this mechanism to either refund amounts over-collected or recoup amounts under-collected as compared to the price paid for natural gas during the period since the last PGA rate change went into effect. At June 30, 2023, the combined balance in the PGA accounts totaled an under-collection
of $786 million. S

PGA Filings
for more information. The market price of natural gas spiked as a result of numerous market forces including historically low storage levels, unexpected upstream
41
pipeline maintenance events, and cold weather conditions across the western region in the latter part of 2022 and continuing into January 2023. As a result of this increase in pricing, in January 2023, Southwest entered into a 364-day $450 million term loan in order to fund the incremental cost. This indebtedness was repaid in April 2023 (refer to
Note 5 – Debt
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). We may be required to incur additional indebtedness in connection with future spikes in natural gas prices as a result of extreme weather events or otherwise.
In March 2023, Southwest issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.450% Senior Notes. The notes will mature in March 2028. Southwest used the net proceeds to repay amounts outstanding under Southwest’s credit facility and the remainder for general corporate purposes.
In April 2023,
Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc.
entered into a $550 million Term Loan Credit Agreement that matures in October 2024. Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. utilized a majority of the proceeds to make an equity contribution to Southwest. On April 17, 2023, Southwest utilized the equity contribution to repay, in full, amounts outstanding under its
$450 million
364-day term loan entered into in January 2023, with the remainder of the equity contribution used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. has a credit facility with a borrowing capacity of
$300 million
that expires in December 2026. This facility is intended for short-term financing needs. At June 30, 2023,
$15.5 million
was outstanding under this facility.
Southwest has a credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $400 million, which expires in April 2025. Southwest designates $150 million of the facility for long-term borrowing needs and the remaining $250 million for working capital purposes. The maximum amount outstanding on the long-term portion of t
he credit facility (including a commercial paper program) during the first six months of 2023 wa
s $150 million. The maximum amount outstanding on the short-term portion of the credit facility during the first six months of 2023 was
$75 million
. At June 30, 2023,
no
borrowings were outstanding on either the long-te
rm or short-term portions of the facility. The cr
edit facility can be used as necessary to meet liquid
ity requirements, including temporarily financing under-collected
PGA balances, or meeting the refund needs of over-collected balances. The credit facility has generally been adequate for Southwest’s working capital needs outside of funds raised through operations and other types of external financing. Any additional cash requirements would include the existing credit facility, equity contributions from the Company, and/or other external financing sources.
Southwest has a $50 million commercial paper program. Any issuance under the commercial paper program is supported by Southwest’s current revolving credit facility and, therefore, does not represent additional borrowing capacity. Any borrowing under the commercial paper program is designated as long-term debt. Interest rates for the commercial paper program are calculated at the current commercial paper rate during the borrowing term. At June 30, 2023, there were
no
borrowings outstanding under this program.
Centuri has a senior secured revolving credit and term loan multi-currency facility. The
line of credit portion comprises $400 million; associated amounts borrowed and repaid are available to be re-borrowed. The term loan facility portion provided approximately
$1.145 billion in financing. The term loan facility expires on August 27, 2028 and the revolving credit facility expires on August 27, 2026. This multi-currency facility allows the borrower to request loan advances in either Canadian dollars or U.S. dollars. The obligations under the credit agreement are secured by present and future ownership interests in substantially all direct and indirect subsidiaries of Centuri, substantially all of the tangible and intangible personal property of each borrower, certain of their direct and indirect subsidiaries, and all products, profits, and proceeds of the foregoing. Centuri assets securing the facility at June 30, 2023 totaled $2.6 billion. The maximum amount outstanding on the combined facility during the first six months of 2023 was $1.184 billion. As of June 30, 2023, $184 million was outstanding on the revolving credit facility, in addition to $1 billion that was outstanding on the term loan portion of the facility. Also at June 30, 2023, there was approximately $139 million, net of letters of credit, availabl
e for borrowing under the line of credit.
In the first quarter of 2023, the Company paid off (primarily with proceeds from the MountainWest sale) the remaining balance on the $1.6 billion term loan entered into in November 2021 in connection with the acquisition of MountainWest.
In March 2023, the Company issued through a separate prospectus supplement under the Universal Shelf, an aggregate of 4.1 million shares of common stock, at an underwritten public offering price of $60.12 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $238.4 million, net of an underwriter’s discount of $8.3 million and estimated expenses of the offering. The Company used the net proceeds to repay outstanding amounts under the Company’s credit facility, with remaining amounts used to pay a residual portion of amounts outstanding under the term loan entered into in connection with the MountainWest acquisition, and the remainder of the proceeds were used for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
42
In April 2021, the Company entered into a Sales Agency Agreement between the Company and BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the “Equity Shelf Program”) for the offer and sale of up to $500 million of common stock from time to time in at-the-market offerings under the related prospectus supplement filed with the SEC. There wa
s no
ac
tivity u
nder this multi-year program during the second quarter of 2023. Net proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock under the Equity Shelf Program are intended for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of property for the construction, completion, extension, or improvement of pipeline systems and facilities located in and around the communities served by Southwest, as well as for repayment or repurchase of indebtedness (including amounts outstanding from time to time under the credit facilities, senior notes, or other indebtedness), and to provide for working capital. The Company had approximately
$341.8 million
available under the program as of June 30, 2023. See
Note 4 – Common Stock
for more information.

For additional information on the risks associated with the Company’s business, see
Item 1A. Risk Factors
and
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
All forward-looking statements in this quarterly report are made as of the date hereof, based on information available to the Company and Southwest as of the date hereof, and the Company and Southwest assume no obligation to update or revise any of its forward-looking statements, even if experience or future changes show that the indicated results or events will not be realized.
We caution you not to unduly rely on any forward-looking statement(s).
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
See
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
in the 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. No material changes have occurred related to the disclosures about market risk.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and Southwest Gas Corporation has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in their respective reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to management of each company, including each respective Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the control. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.
44
Based on the most recent evaluation, as of June 30, 2023, management of Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. and Southwest Gas Corporation, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes the Company’s and Southwest’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at attaining the level of reasonable assurance noted above.
There have been no changes in the Company’s or Southwest’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the second quarter of 2023 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
