ONE Gas Announces Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results; Raises 2026 Adjusted Financial Guidance Above Previous Range
Declares Fourth Quarter Dividend
Analyst call and webcast scheduled tomorrow, Nov. 3 at 11 a.m. EST
TULSA, Okla. - Nov. 2, 2026 - ONE Gas, Inc. (NYSE: OGS) today announced its third quarter financial results, raised its 2026 adjusted financial guidance and declared its quarterly dividend.
"In the third quarter, we again delivered positive results and, for the second time this year, raise our 2026 financial outlook," said Robert S. McAnnally, chief executive officer. "Our 2026 financing plan is complete, and we see continued opportunity ahead as diverse large-load demand develops across our footprint. Importantly, we expect our average 2026 customer bills to remain flat to last year."

•The Company raised its 2026 adjusted earnings per diluted share guidance to a range of $4.95 to $5.01, from a previous range of $4.89 to $4.95;
•Third quarter 2026 adjusted net income was $33.5 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared with $28.6 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, in the same period last year;
•Year-to-date 2026 adjusted net income was $218.9 million, or $3.47 per diluted share, compared with $181.3 million, or $3.00 per diluted share, in 2025;
•Third quarter 2026 net income was $31.2 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, compared with $26.5 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, in the same period last year;

•The board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.68 per share ($2.72 annualized), payable on Dec. 3, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on Nov. 16, 2026.
THIRD QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
ONE Gas reported operating income of $77.4 million in the third quarter, compared with $65.4 million in the third quarter 2025, which primarily reflects:
•an increase of $13.5 million in revenue from new rates; and
•an increase of $3.3 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas.
These increases were partially offset by:
•an increase of $1.0 million in employee-related cost; and
•an increase of $2.8 million in depreciation and amortization expense.
Excluding interest related to KGSS-I securitized bonds, net interest expense increased $1.6 million for the three months ending September 30, 2026. The increase in interest expense is due primarily to interest on the $250 million 13-month unsecured term loan that matured in September 2026 and the issuance of $375 million 5.45 percent senior notes due September 2036.
Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with excess deferred income taxes (EDIT) of $2.2 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively.
Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $229.0 million for the third quarter 2026 compared with $207.6 million in the same period last year, primarily representing expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.
YEAR-TO-DATE 2026 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, was $349.6 million, compared with $317.7 million in 2025, which primarily reflects:
•an increase of $57.2 million from new rates;
•an increase of $6.5 million in residential sales due primarily to net customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas; and
•an increase of $2.0 million from released transportation capacity to other shippers in Kansas.

These increases were partially offset by:
•a decrease of $11.3 million in revenue due to lower sales and transport volumes, net of the impact of weather normalization mechanisms;
•an increase of $13.4 million in employee-related costs;
•an increase of $3.3 million in outside services;
•an increase of $2.3 million in fleet expense; and
•an increase of $3.3 million in bad debt expense.
Weather was 23 percent warmer than normal and 25 percent warmer than the prior year for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The impact on operating income was mitigated by weather normalization mechanisms.
Excluding interest related to KGSS-I securitized bonds, net interest expense decreased $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The decrease in interest expense is due primarily to lower weighted-average interest rate on commercial paper borrowings and the implementation of Texas House Bill 4384.
Income tax expense includes a credit for amortization of the regulatory liability associated with EDIT of $15.0 million and $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively.
Capital expenditures and asset removal costs were $586.9 million for the nine-month 2026 period compared with $575.4 million in the same period last year, primarily representing expenditures for system integrity and extension of service to new areas.
REGULATORY ACTIVITIES UPDATE
In July 2026, Kansas Gas Service submitted an application to the Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) requesting an increase of approximately $14.3 million related to its Gas System Reliability Surcharge to be effective October 2026. The filing included expanded infrastructure investments as defined by Kansas House Bill 2435. On September 22, 2026, the KCC approved the application, and the new rates became effective in October 2026.
In March 2026, Texas Gas Service made a Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program filing for all customers requesting a $36.9 million revenue increase to be effective in July 2026. In June 2026, the Texas Railroad Commission approved an increase of $36.9 million, and new rates became effective in July 2026.
In February 2026, Oklahoma Natural Gas filed its annual Performance-Based Rate Change (PBRC) application for the test year ended December 2025. The filed request included a $28.7 million base rate revenue increase, $2.6 million energy efficiency incentive and $14.4 million of estimated EDIT to be credited to customers in 2027. At the hearing on June 11, 2026, the administrative law judge recommended approval of the application as filed. Interim rates subject to refund were implemented on June 26, 2026, in compliance with the PBRC tariff. The OCC issued an order approving the application on October 14, 2026. That order has been since appealed to the Oklahoma Supreme Court.

NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
This news release includes financial results and guidance for ONE Gas with respect to adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are calculated as GAAP net income plus the deferral of an equity portion of a carrying cost attributable to shareholders' investment capitalized for regulatory purposes but not for financial reporting purposes. These carrying costs relate to property, plant and equipment that has been placed in service, but not yet reflected in rates. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP net income or GAAP earnings per share.
Management believes these non‑GAAP measures provide useful information because they offer a more complete view of our overall regulatory economics, reflect the period-specific effects of certain regulatory mechanisms designed to mitigate regulatory lag associated with property, plant and equipment placed in service prior to regulatory action, and reflect the impact of regulatory timing differences that arise under the Company's rate-setting framework. These adjustments, net of applicable tax effects, are expected to recur as a result of the Company's regulatory framework and are a consistent part of our earnings profile. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per share to adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share is provided in the Appendix.

KGSS-I SECURITIZATION
In November 2022, Kansas Gas Service Securitization I, L.L.C. (KGSS-I) issued $336 million of securitized utility tariff bonds. KGSS-I used the proceeds from the issuance to purchase the Securitized Utility Tariff Property from Kansas Gas Service, pay for debt issuance costs, and reimburse Kansas Gas Service for upfront securitization costs paid on behalf of KGSS-I.
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2026, include $11.5 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $8.2 million in operating and amortization expense and $3.2 million in interest expense, net. Compared to the same three month period last year, revenues increased $0.3 million, interest expense, net, decreased $0.4 million, and operating and amortization expense increased $0.6 million.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, include $33.3 million associated with KGSS-I, which is offset by $23.3 million in operating and amortization expense and $10.0 million in interest expense, net. Compared to the same nine month period last year, revenues decreased $2.7 million, interest expense, net, decreased $1.2 million, and amortization and operating expense decreased $1.5 million.
