Positive Impact 3 of 5 earnings Written later

American States Water reported second quarter 2025 diluted earnings of $0.87 per share, up from $0.85 a year earlier, with total operating revenues of $163.1 million compared with $155.3 million. The gain came mainly from new rates at its water and electric utilities, partly offset by lower construction activity at its contracted services business. The board also approved an 8.3% increase in the quarterly dividend, to $0.5040 per share.

Key points

  • Contracted services EPS fell to $0.13 from $0.19, mainly due to timing of construction projects; the company still expects $0.59 to $0.63 per share for full-year 2025.
  • Six-month diluted EPS was $1.57 versus $1.47 a year earlier.
  • Quarterly dividend rises to $0.5040 per share from $0.4655, payable September 3, 2025 to holders of record on August 15, 2025.
