SAN DIEGO, Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Sempra (NYSE: SRE) today reported second-quarter 2026 earnings, prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), of $796 million or $1.21 per diluted share, compared to second-quarter 2025 GAAP earnings of $461 million or $0.71 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis, second-quarter 2026 earnings were $762 million or $1.16 per diluted share, compared to $583 million or $0.89 per diluted share in 2025. 

“Across our management team, there is a consistent emphasis on execution, and our progress through the first half of the year is reflected in strong financial performance,” said Jeffrey W. Martin, chairman and CEO of Sempra. “I could not be more proud of our employees and their commitment to innovation and continuous improvement, as we look to find new and better ways to serve customers.”

The reported financial results reflect certain significant items as described on an after-tax basis in the following table of GAAP earnings, reconciled to adjusted earnings, for second-quarter 2026 and 2025.

Advancing Value Creation Initiatives
During the second quarter, Sempra continued executing on a series of value creation initiatives to further its mission of building America’s leading utility growth business. Taken together, these initiatives are designed to simplify the company’s strategy, strengthen its financial position and support long-term utility growth.  

In the first half of 2026, Sempra’s businesses invested capital expenditures of over $6 billion to support safe, reliable and affordable energy for the communities we serve. These investments are part of Sempra’s record five-year 2026-2030 capital plan of approximately $65 billion, with 95% allocated to investments at our Texas and California utilities.

Sempra Texas
Sempra continues to see strong growth opportunities in Texas through its investment in Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (Oncor). During the quarter, Oncor’s new base rates became effective June 1. In addition, Oncor filed the surcharge that was approved through its recent base rate review. The surcharge, which took effect August 1, recovers the difference between the new base rates and the rates in effect from January 1 to June 1, 2026. The updated base rates better align Oncor’s cost structure with today’s operating environment, strengthen its financial profile and support continued infrastructure investments to meet Texas’ growing energy needs.

Texas continues to experience unprecedented growth in electric demand as evidenced by Electric Reliability Council of Texas’ (ERCOT) new all-time peak load of 91 gigawatts (GW) set in July. Continued growth in demand is leading to a series of new opportunities to invest in the electric grid.

Earlier this year, ERCOT endorsed a series of high-voltage transmission projects expected to require more than $7 billion of incremental investment, supporting approximately 16 GW of new electric demand with anticipated in-service dates between 2026 and 2034. Oncor expects to construct the majority of those projects, which are subject to regulatory approval.

Also, the Public Utility Commission of Texas recently approved ERCOT’s Batch Zero process, establishing a standardized framework intended to streamline large-load interconnections and support growing demand across the electric grid. While the timeline of the Batch Zero process remains to be determined, approximately 44 GW of large-load requests in Oncor’s service territory are expected to be eligible as base or studied load, consisting of approximately 27 GW of base load and 17 GW of studied load. The referenced 44 GW also includes 8 GW of existing interconnected large load that is ramping up to its authorized capacity. The projects reflect significant customer commitment through financial security, site control and other ERCOT qualification requirements, reinforcing the substantial demand for infrastructure investment across Oncor’s service territory. For context, if fully realized, these requests would represent over 140% growth relative to Oncor’s current system peak load of 31 GW.

Sempra California
In California, Sempra’s utilities remained focused on advancing safety, reliability and affordability for customers. During the quarter, San Diego Gas & Electric (SDGE) and Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) filed their 2028 General Rate Case (GRC) applications. Together, these GRC applications demonstrate a balanced approach to advancing critical safety and reliability investments supporting wildfire risk reduction, electric reliability and resilience, and pipeline safety, while maintaining disciplined cost management and a focus on customer affordability.

Regulatory momentum continued in the quarter, including the approval by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission of SDGE’s electric transmission rate, or TO6, settlement. The settlement provides a constructive outcome for SDGE’s transmission business, including an authorized base return on equity of approximately 10.28% and a supportive regulatory framework for continued transmission investment. Additionally, the California Independent System Operator’s 2025–2026 Transmission Plan included over $160 million of reliability-driven projects for SDGE, further supporting grid resilience.

Sempra California also continued to advance innovation and deliver meaningful benefits for customers. SoCalGas estimates that its energy efficiency programs helped customers save more than $100 million on their utility bills last year, while SDGE expanded its battery energy storage capacity in the second quarter to support grid reliability. In addition, SDGE launched a collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. and the University of California San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography to develop edge-based artificial intelligence technology aimed at enhancing extreme-weather response capabilities. In combination, these efforts reflect Sempra California’s broader commitment to safety, innovation and long-term system reliability.

Sempra Infrastructure Partners Strategic Updates
The transaction to sell a 45% equity interest in Sempra Infrastructure Partners to affiliates of KKR remains on track and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, subject to required approvals and customary closing conditions. The planned sale of Ecogas México, S. de R.L. de C.V. continues to advance following the recent approval without condition by Mexico’s antitrust authority and is expected to close in August. These transactions further Sempra’s capital recycling program with a view toward simplifying the company’s strategy, strengthening its financial position and supporting long-term utility growth.

Earnings Guidance
Sempra is updating its full-year 2026 GAAP earnings-per-common share (EPS) guidance range to $5.02 to $5.55, reflecting actual results through the second quarter, affirming its 2026 adjusted EPS guidance range of $4.80 to $5.30 and affirming its full-year 2027 EPS guidance range of $5.10 to $5.70. Sempra is also affirming a 7% to 9% projected long‑term EPS growth rate.

Sempra Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures (GAAP represents generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America). These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant items that are generally not related to our ongoing business activities and/or are infrequent in nature. These non-GAAP financial measures also exclude the impact from foreign currency and inflation on our monetary positions in Mexico and associated undesignated derivatives and net unrealized gains and losses on commodity and interest rate derivatives, which we expect to occur in future periods, and which can vary significantly from one period to the next. Exclusion of these items is useful to management and investors because it provides a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra’s business operations to prior and future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

RECONCILIATION OF SEMPRA ADJUSTED EARNINGS AND ADJUSTED EPS TO SEMPRA GAAP EARNINGS AND GAAP EPS

Table A (Continued)

Sempra 2026 Adjusted EPS Guidance is a non-GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure excludes significant items that are generally not related to our ongoing business activities and/or infrequent in nature. This non-GAAP financial measure also excludes the impact from foreign currency and inflation on our monetary positions in Mexico and associated undesignated derivatives and net unrealized gains and losses on commodity and interest rate derivatives for the six months ended June 30, 2026, which we expect to occur in future periods, and which can vary significantly from one period to the next. Exclusion of these items is useful to management and investors because it provides a meaningful comparison of the performance of Sempra’s business operations to prior and future periods.

Because we cannot reasonably estimate the forward-looking amount or range of amounts of reasonably estimable GAAP amounts, this non-GAAP financial measure does not contemplate the anticipated impacts of each of the following future events:

• impact from foreign currency and inflation on our monetary positions in Mexico and associated undesignated derivatives
• net unrealized gains and losses on commodity and interest rate derivatives
• any potential gain from the agreement to sell an equity interest in SI Partners to the KKR Partners that was entered into in September 2025, as the purchase price is subject to closing adjustments, post-closing adjustments, and tax items related to our outside basis difference in SI Partners, all of which are subject to adjustments based on changes in carrying value, foreign exchange rates and inflation until the date of sale
• ancillary costs associated with the sale of SI Partners

We expect to complete the sale of SI Partners in the third quarter of 2026, which we expect to be accretive. Sempra 2026 Adjusted EPS Guidance Range should not be considered an alternative to Sempra 2026 GAAP EPS Guidance Range. Non-GAAP financial measures are supplementary information that should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

RECONCILIATION OF SEMPRA 2026 ADJUSTED EPS GUIDANCE RANGE TO SEMPRA 2026 GAAP EPS GUIDANCE RANGE
