Item 2.02&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On November 5, 2025, National Fuel Gas Company (the "Company") issued a press release regarding its earnings for the quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. A copy of the press release is furnished as part of this Current Report as Exhibit 99.

Neither the furnishing of the press release as an exhibit to this Current Report nor the inclusion in such press release of any reference to the Company's internet address shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to incorporate the information available at such internet address into this Current Report. The information available at the Company's internet address is not part of this Current Report or any other report filed or furnished by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In addition to financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the press release furnished as part of this Current Report as Exhibit 99 contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that such non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide an alternative method for assessing the Company's operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of the Company's ongoing operations, for measuring the Company's cash flow and liquidity, and for comparing the Company's financial performance to other companies. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for the same purpose, and for planning and forecasting purposes. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Certain statements contained herein or in the press release furnished as part of this Current Report, including statements regarding estimated future earnings and statements that are identified by the use of the words "anticipates," "estimates," "expects," "forecasts," "intends," "plans," "predicts," "projects," "believes," "seeks," "will" and "may" and similar expressions, are "forward-looking statements" as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. There can be no assurance that the Company's projections will in fact be achieved nor do these projections reflect any acquisitions or divestitures that may occur in the future. While the Company's expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and are believed to have a reasonable basis, actual results may differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements. Furthermore, each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. In addition to other factors, the following are important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements: changes in laws, regulations or judicial interpretations to which the Company is subject, including those involving derivatives, taxes, safety, employment, climate change, other environmental matters, real property, and exploration and production activities such as hydraulic fracturing; governmental/regulatory actions, initiatives and proceedings, including those involving rate cases (which address, among other things, target rates of return, rate design, retained natural gas and system modernization), environmental/safety requirements, affiliate relationships, industry structure, and franchise renewal; changes in economic conditions, including the imposition of additional tariffs on U.S. imports and related retaliatory tariffs, inflationary pressures, supply chain issues, liquidity challenges, and global, national or regional recessions, and their effect on the demand for, and customers' ability to pay for, the Company's products and services; the Company's ability to estimate accurately the time and resources necessary to meet emissions targets; governmental/regulatory actions and/or market pressures to reduce or eliminate reliance on natural gas; impairments under the SEC's full cost ceiling test for natural gas reserves; changes in the price of natural gas; the creditworthiness or performance of the Company's key suppliers, customers and counterparties; financial and economic conditions, including the availability of credit, and occurrences affecting the Company's ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms for working capital, capital expenditures and other investments, including any downgrades in the

------

Company's credit ratings and changes in interest rates and other capital market conditions; the Company's ability to complete strategic transactions; changes in price differentials between similar quantities of natural gas sold at different geographic locations, and the effect of such changes on commodity production, revenues and demand for pipeline transportation capacity to or from such locations; the impact of information technology disruptions, cybersecurity or data security breaches, including the impact of issues that may arise from the use of artificial intelligence technologies; factors affecting the Company's ability to successfully identify, drill for and produce economically viable natural gas reserves, including among others geology, lease availability and costs, title disputes, weather conditions, water availability and disposal or recycling opportunities of used water, shortages, delays or unavailability of equipment and services required in drilling operations, insufficient gathering, processing and transportation capacity, the need to obtain governmental approvals and permits, and compliance with environmental laws and regulations; increased costs or delays or changes in plans with respect to Company projects or related projects of other companies, as well as difficulties or delays in obtaining necessary governmental approvals, permits or orders or in obtaining the cooperation of interconnecting facility operators; increasing health care costs and the resulting effect on health insurance premiums and on the obligation to provide other post-retirement benefits; other changes in price differentials between similar quantities of natural gas having different quality, heating value, hydrocarbon mix or delivery date; the cost and effects of legal and administrative claims against the Company or activist shareholder campaigns to effect changes at the Company; negotiations with the collective bargaining units representing the Company's workforce, including potential work stoppages during negotiations; uncertainty of natural gas reserve estimates; significant differences between the Company's projected and actual production levels for natural gas; changes in demographic patterns and weather conditions (including those related to climate change); changes in the availability, price or accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments; changes in laws, actuarial assumptions, the interest rate environment and the return on plan/trust assets related to the Company's pension and other post-retirement benefits, which can affect future funding obligations and costs and plan liabilities; economic disruptions or uninsured losses resulting from major accidents, fires, severe weather, natural disasters, terrorist activities or acts of war, as well as economic and operational disruptions due to third-party outages; significant differences between the Company's projected and actual capital expenditures and operating expenses; or increasing costs of insurance, changes in coverage and the ability to obtain insurance. The Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.

**NATIONAL FUEL REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER** 

**AND FULL YEAR FISCAL 2025 EARNINGS** 

WILLIAMSVILLE, N.Y.: National Fuel Gas Company ("National Fuel" or the "Company") (NYSE:NFG) today announced consolidated results for the three months and fiscal year ended September 30, 2025.

**FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL 2025 SUMMARY**

• GAAP earnings per share of $1.18 compared to a net loss of $1.84 per share in the prior year.

• Adjusted earnings per share of $1.22, an increase of 58%, compared to $0.77 per share in the prior year. See non-GAAP reconciliation on page 2.

• Supply Corporation filed an application with FERC for its Shippingport Lateral Project, an interstate pipeline expansion project that is expected to provide 205,000 dekatherms per day of firm transportation capacity to a data center site and will generate approximately $15 million in annual revenues with a targeted in-service date in late calendar 2026.

• Strong Tioga Utica well performance in the Eastern Development Area ("EDA") drove 112 Bcf of natural gas production, an increase of 21% compared to the prior year.

• NYMEX natural gas price realizations increased to $2.61 per Mcf, up 9% compared to the prior year.

**FISCAL 2025 HIGHLIGHTS**

• GAAP earnings per share of $5.68 compared to $0.84 per share in fiscal 2024.

• Adjusted earnings per share of $6.91, an increase of 38%, compared to $5.01 per share in fiscal 2024.

• The Company announced its 55th consecutive dividend increase to an annual rate of $2.14 per share, continuing its long history of returning cash to shareholders.

• Integrated Upstream and Gathering segment capital efficiency continued to improve, with record natural gas production of 426 Bcf in the fiscal year, an increase of 9% compared to the prior year, while capital expenditures decreased $40 million, or 6% (see page 19).

• Increased inventory of high-quality, low-breakeven drilling locations in the EDA by 50% with the addition of approximately 220 locations prospective for a new horizon within the upper section of the Utica Shale.

• Adjusted earnings per share of $2.24 from the regulated Utility and Pipeline & Storage segments, an increase of 21% compared to the prior year, largely attributable to the continued benefits from rate settlements.

• Supply Corporation received FERC approval for the Tioga Pathway Project, which remains on track for a late calendar 2026 in-service date.

**MANAGEMENT COMMENTS**

David P. Bauer, President and Chief Executive Officer of National Fuel Gas Company, stated: "National Fuel closed out an exceptional fiscal 2025 with a strong fourth quarter. Driven by great execution across our businesses, adjusted earnings per share increased by 58% compared to the prior year.

"In our Integrated Upstream and Gathering segment, results for the quarter highlight the unique combination of continued operational excellence, along with the best-in-class nature of our assets in the EDA. Our talented team continues to find ways to improve and expand upon our already deep inventory of highly economic drilling locations in this area, where we added 220 new Upper Utica locations this quarter, extending our peer-leading EDA inventory life to more than 15 years. Complementing

------

this inventory expansion, our team recently executed a precedent agreement for new firm transportation capacity from Tioga County to premium markets with an expected in-service date of late 2028, further supporting our long-term growth plans

"The outlook for our regulated businesses is equally promising. In addition to our long-standing modernization program, which we expect will continue to drive rate base growth, we see new capacity additions enhancing our growth outlook. The Tioga Pathway and Shippingport Lateral expansion projects continue to progress as planned, and we are seeing increasing interest in further capacity additions across our FERC-regulated pipeline system. Additionally, our recently announced strategic acquisition of CenterPoint Energy's Ohio natural gas utility business will significantly grow the Company's regulated asset base, adding high-quality operations in a neighboring, cold weather state, with a constructive political and regulatory backdrop.

"With our investment grade balance sheet, strong growth outlook, and increasing scale, the Company is well positioned to deliver meaningful value to shareholders in the years to come."

**FISCAL 2026 GUIDANCE UPDATE**

National Fuel is providing its formal guidance for adjusted earnings per share for fiscal 2026 with a range of $7.60 to $8.10.

The Company is assuming an average NYMEX natural gas price of $3.75 per MMBtu in fiscal 2026, which approximates the current NYMEX forward curve at this time. Given the continued volatility in NYMEX natural gas prices, the Company is providing the following sensitivities to its adjusted earnings per share guidance range:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **NYMEX Assumption**<br>**($/MMBtu)** | **Fiscal 2026<br>Adjusted Earnings <br>Per Share Sensitivities** |
| $3.00 | $6.55 - $7.05 |
| $4.00 | $8.00 - $8.50 |

---

-more-

------

All of the other major assumptions incorporated into this updated guidance range are consistent with the Company's preliminary guidance disclosed last quarter.

The acquisition of CenterPoint Energy's Ohio natural gas utility business is expected to close in the fourth quarter of calendar 2026 and, therefore, is not expected to impact fiscal 2026 guidance. Fiscal 2026 guidance also excludes expected financing and acquisition related costs.

Additional details on the Company's updated forecast assumptions and business segment guidance for fiscal 2026 are outlined in the table on page 7.

**DISCUSSION OF FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS BY SEGMENT** 

The following earnings discussion of each operating segment for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 is summarized in a tabular form on pages 8 and 9 of this report (earnings drivers for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 are summarized on pages 10 and 11). It may be helpful to refer to those tables while reviewing this discussion.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company determined that it was appropriate to consolidate its Exploration and Production and Gathering segments into a single financial reporting segment, which will be presented moving forward as National Fuel's Integrated Upstream and Gathering segment. This updated presentation is intended to provide additional clarity as to the interdependence of the Company's exploration and production and gathering businesses in bringing Appalachian natural gas to market. Prior year segment information shown below has been restated to reflect this change in presentation. A more detailed description of the Company's business segments will be provided in the Company's Form 10-K for fiscal 2025.

Note that management defines adjusted earnings as reported GAAP earnings adjusted for items impacting comparability, and adjusted EBITDA as reported GAAP earnings before the following items: interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, other income and deductions, impairments, and other items reflected in operating income that impact comparability.

<u>Integrated Upstream and Gathering Segment</u>

The Integrated Upstream and Gathering segment's exploration and production operations are carried out by Seneca Resources Company, LLC ("Seneca") and the segment's gathering operations are carried out by National Fuel Gas Midstream Company, LLC's ("Gathering"). Seneca explores for, develops, and produces primarily natural gas reserves in Pennsylvania. Gathering constructs, owns and operates natural gas gathering pipelines and compression facilities in the Appalachian region, which primarily delivers Seneca's production and, to a lesser extent, third party Appalachian production to the interstate pipeline system.

| GAAP Earnings | $103493 | $(142072) | $245565 |

| Adjusted Earnings | $106895 | $63256 | $43639 |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $241093 | $173246 | $67847 |

---

The Integrated Upstream and Gathering segment's fourth quarter GAAP earnings increased $245.6 million versus the prior year. This positive benefit was primarily driven by non-cash impairment charges that did not occur in the current period relative to fiscal 2024, where $272.4 million ($204.1 million after-tax) was recorded, the vast majority of which was related to a pre-tax ceiling test impairment to write-down the carrying value of Seneca's reserves under the full cost method of accounting. GAAP earnings also included a one-time impact related to the income taxes in connection with a contingent consideration tied to the June 2022 divestiture of Seneca's California assets.

Excluding items impacting comparability, Seneca and Gathering's adjusted earnings in the fourth quarter increased $43.6 million primarily due to higher production and realized natural gas prices, as well as lower per unit operating expenses.

During the fourth quarter, Seneca produced 112 Bcf of natural gas, an increase of 20 Bcf, or 21%, from the prior year. Two highly prolific Utica pads turned in line this year in Tioga County were the main drivers behind this increase in production.

-more-

------

Seneca's weighted average realized natural gas price, after the impact of hedging and transportation costs, was $2.61 per Mcf, an increase of $0.21 per Mcf from the prior year. This increase was primarily due to higher NYMEX prices and higher spot prices at local sales points in Pennsylvania.

| Upstream General and Administrative Expense ("G&A") | $0.17 | $0.20 | $(0.03) |

| **Total Operating Costs** | $**1.27** | $**1.37** | $**(0.10)** |

---

On a per unit basis, fourth quarter total cash operating costs were $0.04 lower compared to the prior year, primarily due to higher production, as well as lower LOE, specifically lower repairs and maintenance costs. DD&A for the quarter was $0.74 per Mcf, a decrease of $0.06 per Mcf from the prior year, largely due to ceiling test impairments recorded in prior quarters that lowered Seneca's full cost pool depletable base.

***Proved Reserves Year-End Update***

Seneca's total proved reserves at September 30, 2025 were 4,981 Bcfe, an increase of 229 Bcfe, or 5%, from September 30, 2024. This increase was a result of Seneca replacing 154% of its fiscal 2025 production. Proved developed reserves at the end of fiscal 2025 were 3,665 Bcfe, representing 74% of total proved reserves. In fiscal 2025, Seneca added 633 Bcfe of proved reserve extensions and discoveries and 23 Bcfe of net positive revisions due to improvements in well performance and price revisions, partially offset by changes in development plans.

<u>Pipeline and Storage Segment</u>

The Pipeline and Storage segment's operations are carried out by National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation ("Supply Corporation") and Empire Pipeline, Inc. ("Empire"). The Pipeline and Storage segment provides natural gas transportation and storage services to affiliated and non-affiliated companies through an integrated system of pipelines and underground natural gas storage fields in western New York and Pennsylvania.

| Adjusted Earnings | $27938 | $27947 | $(9) |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $62639 | $62527 | $112 |

---

The Pipeline and Storage segment's fourth quarter GAAP earnings increased $33.8 million versus the prior year primarily due to an impairment charge of $46.1 million ($33.8 million after-tax) to write down the carrying value of certain assets associated with Supply Corporation and Empire's Northern Access project, as the Company determined it was unlikely to pursue construction of the project.

Excluding items impacting comparability, fourth quarter adjusted earnings were relatively flat compared to the prior year.

<u>Utility Segment</u>

The Utility segment operations are carried out by National Fuel Gas Distribution Corporation ("Distribution Corporation"), which sells or transports natural gas to customers located in western New York and northwestern Pennsylvania.

| | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** | **Three Months Ended** |

| GAAP Earnings | $(17790) | $(16759) | $(1031) |
| Adjusted EBITDA | $2036 | $(228) | $2264 |

---

The Utility segment's fourth quarter GAAP earnings decreased $1.0 million, or 6%, primarily as a result of increased operation and maintenance ("O&M") expense and income tax expense which more than offset an increase in customer margin.

For the fourth quarter, customer margin (operating revenue less purchased gas sold) increased $5.3 million, largely due to an increase in rates as part of the Utility's New York rate case settlement, which became effective October 1, 2024.

O&M expense increased $3.8 million primarily driven by higher personnel costs, partially offset by a reduction in uncollectible expenses as a result of a tracker implemented as part of the New York rate case settlement. Further, the increase in the Utility segment's income tax expense (or lower income tax benefit) was driven by a higher effective tax rate.

<u>Corporate and All Other</u>

The Company's operations that are included in Corporate and All Other generated a combined net loss of $6.3 million, an increase of $3.3 million from the prior year net loss, in part due to higher operating expenses which are largely attributable to professional fees related to the previously announced Ohio utility acquisition.

**NATIONAL FUEL GAS COMPANY**

**AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**GUIDANCE SUMMARY**

As discussed on page 2, the Company is revising its adjusted earnings per share guidance for fiscal 2026. Additional details on the Company's forecast assumptions and business segment guidance are outlined in the table below. As a reminder, the acquisition of CenterPoint Energy's Ohio natural gas utility business is expected to close in the fourth quarter of calendar 2026, and therefore, is not expected to impact fiscal 2026 guidance. Fiscal 2026 guidance also excludes expected financing and acquisition related costs.

While the Company expects to record certain adjustments to unrealized gain or loss on investments during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, the amounts of these and other potential adjustments are not reasonably determinable at this time. As such, the Company is unable to provide earnings guidance other than on a non-GAAP basis.

**NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES**

In addition to financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release contains information regarding adjusted earnings, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide an alternative method for assessing the Company's ongoing operating results or liquidity and for comparing the Company's financial performance to other companies. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for the same purpose, and for planning and forecasting purposes. The presentation of non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be a substitute for financial measures in accordance with GAAP.

Management defines adjusted earnings as reported GAAP earnings before items impacting comparability. The following table reconciles National Fuel's reported GAAP earnings to adjusted earnings for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

Management defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less net cash used in investing activities, adjusted for acquisitions and divestitures. The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of any projected free cash flow measure to its comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable efforts. This is due to an inability to calculate the comparable GAAP projected metrics, including operating income and total production costs, given the unknown effect, timing, and potential significance of certain income statement items.
