CAMDEN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--American Water Works Company, Inc. (NYSE: AWK) today reported earnings of $0.81 per share for the fourth quarter 2022 compared to $3.55 per share in 2021, and full year earnings in 2022 of $4.51 per share compared to $6.95 per share in 2021. Fourth quarter and full year 2021 results included a gain of $2.70 per share, which reflected the completion of the sale of HOS in December of 2021. Fourth quarter and full year 2021 results were $0.85 per share and $4.25 per share, respectively, before the gain on the sale of HOS.
“American Water successfully executed on our strategies in 2022, achieved on-plan earnings growth, and again delivered strong dividend growth to investors. Importantly, we achieved constructive outcomes in general rate cases in three of our largest jurisdictions - New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Illinois,” said Susan Hardwick, president and CEO of American Water.
“We invested a record $2.6 billion across our business, led by infrastructure renewal, and completed 26 regulated acquisitions during the year. We are also proud that 2022 marked our best year of safety performance on record, and that we established additional GHG emissions reduction goals, including a net zero target by 2050,” added Hardwick. “We are excited about this positive momentum as we begin 2023.”

Consolidated Results
For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, earnings per share were $0.81 and $4.51, respectively, compared to $3.55 and $6.95 per share in the same periods in 2021. The 2021 results included a net gain of $2.70 per share relating to the sale of HOS. Before the gain related to the sale of HOS in 2021, earnings per share increased $0.26 in 2022 as compared to 2021. This increase was primarily driven by continued growth in the Regulated Businesses from the return on infrastructure investments, acquisitions, and organic customer growth, offset somewhat by impacts from inflationary pressures on production costs and higher interest costs along with higher depreciation expenses from the growth of the business. Results for 2022 also reflect the favorable impact of weather, estimated at $0.06 per share, primarily due to hot and dry weather in the third quarter of 2022, as compared to a modest favorable impact from weather in 2021. Also, included in the results for 2022 are $0.24 per share from interest income earned on the seller note and income earned on revenue share agreements, which compares to HOS operating results for 2021 of $0.31 per share. Lastly, operating results for the Company’s New York subsidiary, which was sold on January 1, 2022, were $0.12 per share in 2021.
In 2022, the Company made capital investments of $2.6 billion, including $2.3 billion for infrastructure improvements and other capital investments in the Regulated Businesses and $0.3 billion for regulated acquisitions.
Regulated Businesses
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Regulated Businesses’ net income was $173 million, compared to $166 million for the same period in 2021. For the full year 2022, the Regulated Businesses’ net income was $854 million, compared to $789 million in 2021. Net income attributable to the Company’s New York subsidiary was $4 million and $21 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, respectively.
Operating revenues increased $61 million and $248 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, as compared to 2021, when excluding revenues contributed by the Company’s New York subsidiary in 2021. The increases in operating revenues were primarily a result of authorized revenue increases resulting from completed general rate cases and infrastructure proceedings to recover incremental capital and acquisition investments.
Since January 1, 2022, the Company has been authorized additional annualized revenues of approximately $308 million from general rate cases, with $90 million effective in 2022 and $218 million effective in 2023. Further, approximately $108 million of additional annualized revenues from infrastructure surcharges have been authorized, with $83 million effective in 2022 and $25 million effective in 2023. The Company has general rate cases in progress in three jurisdictions and filed for two infrastructure surcharges, reflecting a total annualized revenue request of approximately $181 million.
Excluding impacts of the Company’s New York subsidiary in 2021, operation and maintenance (“O&M”) expenses were higher by $24 million and $68 million for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, as compared to 2021, primarily due to increases in production costs from inflationary pressures. Also, depreciation expense was higher by $8 million and $32 million in these same periods due to the growing capital investment in infrastructure and acquisitions.
For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2021, results included revenues of $30 million and $127 million, respectively, and operating expenses of $23 million and $94 million, respectively, for the Company’s New York subsidiary that was sold on January 1, 2022.
For the full year 2022, the Company’s adjusted regulated O&M efficiency ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure) was 33.7%, compared to 34.1% for 2021. The ratio reflects an increase in operating revenues for the Regulated Businesses, after considering the adjustment for the amortization of the excess accumulated deferred income taxes (“EADIT”) shown in the table below, as well as the continued focus on operating costs.
Other
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the net loss in Other was $26 million, compared to net income of $479 million for the same period in 2021. For the year ended 2022, the net loss in Other was $34 million, compared to net income of $474 million for the same period in 2021. The primary driver for the change in both periods is the gain on the sale of HOS of $478 million in 2021, the loss of earnings from HOS operations as a result of the sale of the business in 2021, and incremental interest expense on long-term debt in 2022. The loss of HOS operating results has been partially offset in both periods of 2022 with interest income earned on the seller note from the sale and continuing income earned on revenue share agreements. As previously disclosed, results in 2022 also reflect $0.06 per share of favorable impact from post-close adjustments related to the sale of HOS and the Company’s New York subsidiary.
Dividends
On December 7, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.6550 per share of common stock payable on March 1, 2023, to shareholders of record as of February 7, 2023.
2022 Fourth Quarter and Year-End Earnings Conference Call
The conference call to discuss fourth quarter and year-end 2022 earnings, and affirmation of 2023 earnings guidance, and long-term targets will take place on Thursday, February 16, 2023, at 9 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. Interested parties may listen to an audio webcast through a link on the Company’s Investor Relations website at ir.amwater.com. Presentation slides that will be used in conjunction with the earnings conference call will also be made available online in advance at ir.amwater.com. The Company recognizes its website as a key channel of distribution to reach public investors and as a means of disclosing material non-public information to comply with its obligations under SEC Regulation FD.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes a presentation of adjusted regulated O&M efficiency ratio, a “non-GAAP financial measure” under SEC rules, which excludes from its calculation estimated purchased water revenues and purchased water expenses, reductions for the amortization of EADIT, and the allocable portion of non-O&M support services costs, mainly depreciation and general taxes. These items were excluded from the O&M efficiency ratio calculation as they do not reflect management’s ability to increase the efficiency of the Regulated Businesses. This item is derived from American Water’s consolidated financial information but is not presented in its financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure supplements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP disclosures and should be considered as an addition to, and not a substitute for, any GAAP measure.
Management evaluates its operating performance using this ratio and believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to the Company’s investors because it directly measures improvement in the operating performance and efficiency of the Company’s Regulated Businesses. The Company’s adjusted regulated O&M efficiency ratio (i) is not an accounting measure that is based on GAAP; (ii) is not based on a standard, objective industry definition or method of calculation; (iii) may not be comparable to other companies’ operating measures; and (iv) should not be used in place of the GAAP information provided elsewhere in this press release.
Set forth in this release is a table that calculates the Company’s adjusted regulated O&M efficiency ratio and reconciles each of the components used to calculate this ratio to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
