MGE Energy Reports Third-Quarter 2022 Earnings

MGE Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: MGEE), today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2022.

MGE Energy's GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) earnings for the third quarter of 2022 were $33.7 million, or $0.93 cents per share, compared to $34.9 million, or $0.97 cents per share, for the same period in the prior year.

Timing of 2021 depreciation and other operations and maintenance costs contributed to higher electric earnings in 2021. Significant capital projects were placed in service near the end of 2021, which triggered additional depreciation and operations and maintenance costs after completion. The new customer information system went live in September 2021 and the first phase of the Badger Hollow Solar Farm was completed in November 2021. The second phase of Badger Hollow is expected to be completed in the first half of 2023. Badger Hollow is one of several major ongoing investments in renewable generation capacity to advance the Company's goal of deep decarbonization, targeting carbon reductions of at least 80% (from 2005 levels) by 2030 and net-zero carbon electricity by 2050.

In the third quarter of 2022, earnings from our investment in ATC decreased $0.7 million, driven by an estimated possible loss from filed complaints regarding MISO transmission owners' authorized return on equity.

Gas net income in the third quarter of 2022 remained relatively flat compared to the third quarter of 2021.
