Briefing

Pinnacle West's first-quarter results were reported, showing a net loss attributable to common shareholders, but were in line with company expectations due to favorable weather and customer growth offsetting higher expenses.

Pinnacle West reported a consolidated net loss of $3.3 million, or a loss of $0.03 per diluted share, for Q1 2023, compared to a net income of $17.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the same period in 2022. The results were influenced by increased operations and maintenance expenses, lower pension credits, higher interest charges, and increased depreciation and amortization, which were partially offset by higher revenue from weather effects, customer growth, and lower income taxes. The company affirms its full-year 2023 guidance.

  • Favorable weather, strong sales and customer growth helped offset higher operations and maintenance costs.
  • APS employees are focusing on summer preparedness, reliability, and resilience.
  • Company affirms full-year 2023 guidance.
