Q3 2024 earnings · · Investor relations

Briefing

IDACORP reported increased earnings due to customer growth, rate changes, and weather conditions, which led to higher customer usage, but these benefits were partially offset by higher depreciation and interest expenses.

IDACORP's third quarter 2024 net income attributable to IDACORP was $113.6 million, or $2.12 per diluted share, compared to $105.3 million, or $2.07 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023. The company is increasing the lower-end of its previously reported full-year 2024 earnings guidance to the range of $5.35 to $5.45 per diluted share.

  • Net income attributable to IDACORP increased by $8.3 million compared to Q3 2023, primarily due to higher net income at Idaho Power.
  • Customer growth increased operating income by $7.4 million as the number of customers grew by approximately 16,500, or 2.6 percent.
  • Usage per retail customer increased operating income by $3.1 million due to higher temperatures and lower precipitation.
  • The lower end of the full-year 2024 earnings guidance was increased to $5.35 to $5.45 per diluted share.
