Second Quarter 2022 Results

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, SJI reported consolidated GAAP earnings of $(18.7) million compared with $(96.7) million in the prior year period.

SJI uses the non-GAAP measure of economic earnings when discussing results. We believe this presentation provides clarity into the continuing earnings of our business. A full explanation and reconciliation of economic earnings is provided under “Explanation and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” later in this report and in our 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2021.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, economic earnings were $6.3 million compared with $2.0 million in the prior year period.

UTILITY

Utility entities include the regulated operations of South Jersey Gas (SJG) and Elizabethtown Gas (ETG). Second quarter 2022 GAAP earnings were $1.5 million compared with $3.3 million in 2021. Economic earnings were $2.8 million compared with $3.3 million in 2021.

South Jersey Gas

Performance. Second quarter 2022 GAAP earnings were $4.8 million compared with $6.3 million in 2021. Economic earnings were $6.2 million compared with $6.3 million in 2021. Utility margin increased $4.5 million, reflecting customer growth and the roll-in of investments from infrastructure replacement programs. We define utility margin, a non-GAAP measure, as natural gas revenues plus depreciation and amortization expenses, less natural gas costs, regulatory rider expenses and related volumetric and revenue-based energy taxes. Total expenses increased $4.6 million, primarily reflecting higher depreciation and interest expenses.

Customer Growth. SJG added approximately 6,600 new customers over the last 12 months and now serves approximately 413,000 customers. SJG’s 1.2% customer growth rate compares favorably to the peer average and remains driven by gas conversions from alternate fuels such as oil and propane, and new construction.

Infrastructure Modernization. Through infrastructure replacement programs, SJG enhances the safety and reliability of our system while earning our authorized utility return on approved investments in a timely manner. In June, the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (NJBPU) authorized a new Infrastructure Investment Program (IIP) that accelerates planned capital expenditures to enhance the delivery of safe, reliable, affordable natural gas, create jobs, and support the State’s environmental goals. SJG's new program authorizes investment of $200 million from 2022-2027 for important infrastructure upgrades including the replacement of up to 250 miles of pre-code coated steel and vintage plastic main. Our annualized investment of approximately $40 million from July 2022 to June 2023 is anticipated to be rolled into rates on October 1, 2023.

Base Rate Case. In April, SJG filed a petition with the NJBPU requesting an increase of $73.1 million to its base rates, which was updated in July to an increase of $73.3 million. The request is based on a proposed pre-tax return on invested capital of 7.77%, with a capital structure that includes a common equity component of 57.0% and a return on common equity of 10.75%. The request is predominantly driven by the significant capital investments that SJG has made since its last base rate proceeding that was resolved in 2020. These capital investments have been and will continue to be made to ensure the safety, reliability and resiliency of SJG's distribution system, allow SJG to continue to provide safe, reliable and best in class customer service, and facilitate the environmental goals of NJ and SJI's commitment to ensuring that it is part of New Jersey’s clean energy future. A resolution of the case is expected later this year.

Energy Efficiency. Through energy efficiency programs, SJG advances New Jersey’s clean energy goals in a manner that benefits customers, the environment and the State’s green economy while recovering our investments in a timely manner. SJG's energy efficiency program, as approved by the BPU in April 2021, authorizes investment of $133.2 million from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2024. The revenue requirement associated with our net investment of approximately $25 million from July 2021 to June 2022 commenced recovery in July 2021 under the terms of the program.

Elizabethtown Gas
Performance. Second quarter 2022 GAAP/economic earnings were $(3.4) million compared with $(3.0) million in 2021. Utility margin, as previously defined, increased $2.0 million, reflecting customer growth and the roll-in of investments from infrastructure replacement programs. Total expenses increased $2.4 million, primarily reflecting higher O&M and interest expenses.

Customer Growth. ETG added approximately 5,000 new customers over the last 12 months and now serves approximately 307,000 customers. ETG’s 1.5% customer growth rate has increased from its historic 0.9% rate, driven by increases in gas conversions from alternate fuels such as oil and propane, and new construction.

Infrastructure Modernization. ETG's Infrastructure Investment Plan (IIP) authorizes investment of $300 million from 2019-2024 for important infrastructure upgrades including the replacement of up to 250 miles of cast iron and bare steel mains. Our investment of approximately $58 million from July 2021 to June 2022 is anticipated to be rolled into rates on October 1, 2022.

Base Rate Case. In December 2021, ETG filed a petition with the NJBPU requesting an increase of $76.6 million, which was updated in February 2022 to a requested increase of $72.9 million and in May 2022 to a requested increase of $77.3 million. The request is predominantly driven by the significant capital investments that ETG has made since its last base rate proceeding that was resolved in 2019. These capital investments have been and will continue to be made to ensure the safety, reliability and resiliency of ETG's distribution system, allow ETG to continue to provide safe, reliable and best in class customer service, and facilitate the environmental goals of NJ and SJI's commitment to ensuring that it is part of New Jersey’s clean energy future. A resolution of the case is expected in Q3 2022.

Energy Efficiency. ETG's energy efficiency program, as approved by the BPU in April 2021, authorizes investment of $74.0 million from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2024. The revenue requirement associated with our net investment of approximately $12.7 million from July 2021 to June 2022 commenced recovery in July 2021 under the terms of the program.

NON-UTILITY

SJI's non-utility entities include Energy Management, Energy Production and Midstream. Second quarter 2022 GAAP earnings were $(11.3) million compared with $(90.7) million in 2021. Economic earnings were $12.7 million compared with $8.1 million in 2021.

Energy Management

Performance. Energy Management includes Wholesale Services (Fuel Management/Marketing) and Retail Services (Account Services/Energy Consulting). Second quarter 2022 GAAP earnings were $(22.2) million compared with $(4.1) million in 2021. Economic earnings were $2.4 million compared with $7.0 million in 2021, reflecting lower margins from daily energy trading activities and less robust asset optimization opportunities as compared with the year ago period, and contributions from consulting activities, meter reading and appliance service contract fees.

Energy Production

Performance. Energy Production primarily includes renewable (fuel cell/solar) and decarbonization (REV/RNG development) investments. Second quarter 2022 GAAP earnings were $10.2 million compared with $(0.4) million in 2021. Economic earnings were $10.2 million compared with $(0.2) million in 2021, primarily reflecting investment tax credits (ITC's) and income associated with fuel cell and solar investments, and contributions from SJI's 35% equity interest in REV. RNG development activities at ten dairy farms is proceeding on track, with in-service anticipated in 2022/2023.

Midstream

Performance. Second quarter GAAP/economic earnings were $0.8 million compared with $(86.1) million in 2021. Economic earnings were $0.0 million compared with $1.2 million in 2021, reflecting the absence of allowance for funds used during construction following cessation of the PennEast Pipeline project in 2021.

OTHER

Performance. Other entity includes interest on debt, including debt associated with past acquisitions. Second quarter 2022 GAAP earnings were $(8.8) million compared with $(9.3) million in 2021. Economic earnings were $(9.2) million compared with $(9.3) million in 2021, reflecting lower outstanding indebtedness partially offset by higher interest and bank fees.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures of Economic Earnings and Economic Earnings per share when evaluating its results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP measures, such as net income, operating income, earnings per share from continuing operations or any other GAAP measure of financial performance. We define Economic Earnings as: Income from Continuing Operations, (i) less the change in unrealized gains and plus the change in unrealized losses on non-utility derivative transactions; (ii) less income and plus losses attributable to noncontrolling interests; and (iii) less the impact of transactions, contractual arrangements or other events where management believes period to period comparisons of SJI's operations could be difficult or potentially confusing. With respect to part (iii) of the definition of Economic Earnings, items excluded from Economic Earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are described in (A)-(E) in the table below. Economic Earnings is a significant financial measure used by our management to indicate the amount and timing of income from continuing operations that we expect to earn after taking into account the impact of the items described above. Management uses Economic Earnings to manage its business and to determine such items as incentive/compensation arrangements and allocation of resources. Specifically regarding derivatives, we believe that this financial measure indicates to investors the profitability of the entire derivative-related transaction and not just the portion that is subject to mark-to-market valuation under GAAP. We believe that considering only the change in market value on the derivative side of the transaction can produce a false sense as to the ultimate profitability of the total transaction as no change in value is reflected for the non-derivative portion of the transaction.
