YORW York Water Company

President Hand reported that first quarter operating revenues of $17,628,000 increased $2,227,000 and net income of $4,327,000 increased $674,000 compared to the first quarter of 2023. Basic and Diluted Earnings per share of $0.30 for the three-month period increased $0.04 compared to the same period last year. Increased revenues were primarily due to an increase in rates effective March 1, 2023 partially offset by a reset to zero of the Distribution System Improvement Charge (DSIC). The DSIC is a Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission allowed charge that water utilities collect from customers for the replacement of aging infrastructure. Growth in the customer base also added to revenues. The increased revenue was partially offset by higher operation and maintenance expenses and depreciation.

During the first three months of 2024, the Company invested $8.5 million in capital projects for armoring and replacing the spillway of the Lake Williams dam, wastewater treatment plant construction, as well as various replacements and improvements to infrastructure and routine items. The Company completed the acquisitions of the MESCO, Inc. wastewater collection and treatment assets and the Longstown Mobile Estates water assets. With the MESCO acquisition, the Company now serves 56 municipalities within four counties in south-central Pennsylvania. The Company estimates it will invest an additional $33.7 million in 2024, excluding acquisitions, for completion of armoring and replacing the spillway of the Lake Williams dam, additional main extensions, wastewater treatment plant construction, and routine improvements to its pipes, service lines, and other facilities to ensure a safe, adequate, and reliable supply of drinking water and to maintain proper handling and disposal of wastewater for the Company’s growing customer base.
