Bull points

  • For the fourth quarter, it’s probably going to be – if they close everything that they are targeting, it could be over $0.5 billion, maybe even as much as $600 million.

  • Gas Utilities has seen a decline in customer spending compared to 2022 levels but we have been encouraged by our ability to adjust our cost to minimize the margin impact of the decline in revenues.
