. The Company’s primary business involves the ownership of utilities that provide water and wastewater services to residential, commercial, industrial, public authority, fire service and sale for resale customers, collectively presented as the “Regulated Businesses.” Services provided by the Company’s utilities are subject to regulation by multiple state utility commissions or other entities engaged in utility regulation, collectively referred to as public utility commissions (“PUCs”). The Company also operates other businesses not subject to economic regulation by state PUCs that provide water and wastewater services to the U.S. government on military installations, as well as municipalities, collectively presented throughout this Form 10-Q within “Other.” See Part I, Item 1—Business in the Company’s Form 10-K for additional information.

Financial Results

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, diluted earnings per share, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), were $1.48 and $2.53, respectively, compared to $1.42 and $2.37 per share in the same periods in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the implementation of new rates in the Regulated Businesses from the recovery of capital and acquisition investments. Results also reflect increased operating costs and higher depreciation and financing costs to support the current capital investment plan. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024, reflect an estimated net unfavorable impact of weather of $0.06 per share, including an estimated $0.03 per share of unfavorable impact due to wet weather in the second quarter of 2025, across many states, and an estimated $0.03 per share of favorable impact due to warm, dry weather in the second quarter of 2024, primarily in New Jersey.

Growth Through Capital Investment in Infrastructure and Regulated Acquisitions

The Company continues to grow its businesses, with the substantial majority of its growth to be achieved in the Regulated Businesses through (i) continued capital investment in the Company’s infrastructure to provide safe, clean, reliable and affordable water and wastewater services to its customers, (ii) regulated acquisitions to expand the Company’s services to new customers and (iii) organic growth in existing systems. The Company plans to invest approximately $3.3 billion in these growth strategies in 2025. During the first six months of 2025, the Company invested $1.3 billion, in the Regulated Businesses, as discussed below.
