Briefing
Pinnacle West's financial results decreased due to mild weather and increased operating costs.
Pinnacle West reported a decrease in net income for the second quarter of 2023, with net income attributable to common shareholders at $106.7 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, compared to $164.3 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to mild weather, higher operating and maintenance expenses, increased interest charges, and lower pension credits, partially offset by higher transmission revenue and revenue from the Lost Fixed Cost Recovery mechanism. However, the company increased its 2023 consolidated earnings range to $4.10 to $4.30 per diluted share on a weather-normalized basis.
