Business Wire5 days ago
BUSINESS WIRE)--American Water Works Company, Inc. (NYSE: AWK) today reported results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, of $1.48 per share, compared to $1.42 per share for the same quarter in 2024 and $2.53 per share for the year-to-date period ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.37 per share for the same period in 2024.
'The company delivered solid results for the first half of the year,' said John Griffith, President and CEO of American Water. 'We are excited about the outlook for growth in the business, the foundation of which is continued investment in the communities we currently serve. We are also pleased with the positive momentum in our acquisition growth strategy, including the recently announced transaction to purchase Nexus Water Group systems in eight of our existing regulated states,' added Griffith. 'Through this and other announced transactions, we will grow and continue to leverage our scale and size to deliver safe, clean, reliable and affordable water and wastewater services to customers.'
2025 EPS Guidance Narrowed to Top Half of Range; Long-Term Financial Targets Affirmed
The company's 2025 earnings per share guidance range is now $5.70 to $5.75, narrowed from the previous EPS guidance range of $5.65 to $5.75, on a weather-normalized basis. Both ranges include approximately $0.10 per share of incremental interest income resulting from the early 2024 amendment to the terms of the secured seller note receivable from the 2021 sale of HOS. The company affirms its long-term financial targets, including its long-term EPS and dividend growth rate targets of 7-9%. The company's earnings forecasts are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, those described under 'Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements' below and under 'Risk Factors' in its annual, quarterly, and current reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC').
Consolidated Results
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, earnings per share were $1.48 and $2.53 compared to $1.42 and $2.37 per share in the same periods in 2024. Results include increased revenues from implementation of new rates in the Regulated Businesses from the recovery of capital and acquisition investments. Results also reflect increased operating costs and higher depreciation and financing costs to support the current capital investment plan. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in 2024, reflect an estimated net unfavorable impact of weather of $0.06 per share, including an estimated $0.03 per share of unfavorable impact due to wet weather in the second quarter of 2025, across many states, and an estimated $0.03 per share of favorable impact due to warm, dry weather in the second quarter of 2024, primarily in New Jersey.
The company is on track to meet its capital investment plan for the year with investment of $1.3 billion in the first six months of 2025. The company plans to invest a total of approximately $3.3 billion across its footprint in 2025.
Regulated Businesses
In the second quarter of 2025, the Regulated Businesses' net income was $288 million, compared to $274 million for the same period in 2024. For the first six months of 2025, the Regulated Businesses' net income was $489 million, compared to $459 million for the same period in 2024.
Operating revenues increased $121 million and $242 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2024. The increase in operating revenues was primarily a result of authorized revenue increases from completed general rate cases and infrastructure proceedings for the recovery of incremental capital and acquisition investments, as well as incremental revenue from closed acquisitions.
Since January 1, 2025, the company has been authorized additional annualized revenues of $270 million, with $232 million from general rate cases and $38 million from infrastructure surcharges. The company has general rate cases in progress in three jurisdictions and has filed for an infrastructure surcharge in one jurisdiction, reflecting a total annualized revenue request of $126 million.
Operating expenses were higher by $83 million and $161 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2024. Operating expenses were higher primarily due to an increase in employee related costs and technology related costs, as well as general taxes associated with increased capital investment, and other operation and maintenance costs related to acquisitions closed in 2024. Operating expenses also include depreciation expense, which was higher by $28 million and $57 million in the same periods, due to the increase in capital investment.
Interest expense was higher by $14 million and $31 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2024, as a result of incremental short and long-term debt primarily to fund capital investments.
Dividends
On July 30, 2025, the company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.8275 per share, payable on September 3, 2025, to shareholders of record as of August 12, 2025.

Rise in Demand for Transparent Labeling Boosts Sales

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Non-GMO Food Market Overview 2025-2033" report has been added to offering. Non-GMO Food Market is expected to reach US$ 476.08 billion by 2033 from US$ 309 billion in 2024, with a CAGR of 4.92% from 2025 to 2033 Among the drivers propelling the market in North America are the growing demand for food items made with non-GMO seeds, the growing promotion of sustainable agricultural methods, and growing health consciousness. Today's customers' growing interest in health and wellbeing is a major driver propelling the non-GMO food market's expansion. Customers are considerably more inclined to choose natural and organic food items now that they are aware of the terrible concerns associated with genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Because non-GMO is linked to environmental friendliness, openness in food production, and internet information that may help consumers make better decisions when making purchases, it is therefore seen as safe and healthful. The market will continue to develop as a result of individuals looking for non-genetically modified organisms in production due to dietary concerns such allergies and dietary sensitivities. Additionally, in response to customer demand, food producers are offering a broad variety of non-GMO-certified items, ranging from processed foods to fresh fruit. The market is also anticipated to expand as a result of growing expenditures made by industry participants in their R&D divisions for the manufacturing of non-GMO goods. Because of its nutritional profiles and health advantages, vegan and vegetarian food consumption has also been more popular in recent years. As a result, market participants are introducing novel plant-based meals as substitutes for foods that cause sensitivity and intolerance. Furthermore, because plant-based meals have all necessary development nutrients and natural products, there is a growing demand for them in infant food. Danone SA introduced a new dairy and plant blend baby food product in July 2022. Non-GMO soy and additional plant components make up the plant blend. Key Factors Driving the Non-GMO Food Market Growth Growing Interest in Natural and Organic Products Demand for natural and organic products has surged due to consumers' growing desire for better lives; non-GMO foods are receiving special focus. Many customers value items devoid of synthetic chemicals, pesticides, and genetic changes, and they often link non-GMO foods with organic and clean-label alternatives. Those who value chemical-free, ecologically friendly food options may find this overlap between the non-GMO and organic industries appealing. More individuals are looking for items that fit with their ethical and health ideals as knowledge about food sources and processing techniques increases. Prominent food movements and wellness advocates that advocate for natural diets are also supporting this trend. The demand for these goods pushes manufacturers to spend money on organic farming and non-GMO certifications, increasing supply and propelling steady market expansion on a worldwide scale. Expanding Retail and Increasing Availability The number of supermarkets, specialty shops, and internet retailers carrying non-GMO items has increased dramatically in recent years. Retailers are adding a greater range of products to their shelves, from fresh fruit to processed and packaged items, in response to the rising customer demand for non-GMO choices. By providing easy purchasing and home delivery, e-commerce platforms expand accessibility even further and reach clients outside of conventional metropolitan areas. Even obscure non-GMO companies may reach a broader audience thanks to this development, which also boosts consumer choice and market penetration. Partnerships between manufacturers and retailers can simplify supply chains, guaranteeing the consistency and freshness of products. Non-GMO foods are growing more popular as distribution channels expand, which contributes to the continuous expansion of the industry. Consumer Preference for Openness in Food Non-GMO certification is a significant confidence signal since modern customers are demanding more information about food components, sourcing, and production techniques. Customers are looking for comfort about safety, ethics, and environmental effect, and they want clear information about whether products include genetically modified organisms. This desire encourages manufacturers and brands to use non-GMO certifications and statements on packaging, which increases their credibility and helps them stand out in crowded markets. Additionally, customers' preference for clean-label and minimally processed goods is in line with transparent labeling, which boosts consumer trust when making purchases. To meet the needs of this expanding market, businesses invest in traceability systems and strict adherence to regulations. In the end, the focus on openness boosts the non-GMO industry by fostering global customer loyalty and confidence. Challenges in the Non-GMO Food Market False Claims and Labels Because of false labeling and unsubstantiated claims, the non-GMO food sector confronts serious obstacles. Customers may become confused by ambiguous or inconsistent labeling, which makes it challenging for them to discern between items that are genuinely non-GMO and those that make evasive or misleading claims. This ambiguity erodes customer confidence and may harm the standing of respectable non-GMO companies. Market transparency may be further complicated if certain firms take advantage of the increased demand for non-GMO goods by using unsupported labeling to obtain a competitive edge. In order to enforce stringent labeling rules and carry out audits to guarantee authenticity, regulatory agencies and certification groups are essential. Nonetheless, deceptive assertions will continue to endanger consumer trust and market integrity in the absence of broad and consistent punishment. GMO Alternatives' Competition Genetically modified (GMO) food substitutes, which frequently provide increased crop yields, improved insect resistance, and increased tolerance to environmental challenges, pose a serious threat to non-GMO food producers. Because of these benefits, GMO crops are more affordable and desirable to large-scale farmers and agribusinesses, who can produce food in greater quantities and at cheaper rates. This competitive advantage makes it more difficult for non-GMO farmers to compete on price and supply consistency because they usually face greater production costs and poorer output. Furthermore, non-GMO solutions are further marginalized by GMO crops' established supply systems and broad acceptance in some areas. While negotiating this competitive environment, non-GMO growers must prioritize quality, sustainability, and customer preferences in order to be viable. Non-GMO Food Market Overview by Regions The market for non-GMO foods is expanding internationally, with North America and Europe leading the way because of stringent restrictions and increasing consumer awareness. While Latin America and Africa are developing markets with infrastructural and awareness issues, Asia-Pacific is expanding quickly due to growing health consciousness.

Concord Technologies To Highlight Strategic Interoperability Solutions at DirectTrust Conference

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Concord Technologies ('Concord'), a leader in Secure Document Exchange, Intelligent Document Processing, and Interoperability solutions, will return as a sponsor at the DirectTrust Annual Conference, Aug 4-7, in St. Louis. This event brings together the industry's brightest minds and thought leaders focused on solving healthcare's interoperability challenges. As a DirectTrust member since 2023, Concord is committed to advancing secure, standards-based information exchange across the healthcare ecosystem. The event's theme, The Intersection of Interoperability, Identity, and Cybersecurity, aligns with Concord's mission to solve healthcare's interoperability challenge with Straight-Through Processing —the receiving, processing, and integrating of documents and data directly into EHRs or other systems of record with minimal human intervention. 'Healthcare CIOs are under increasing pressure to unify fragmented systems and ensure secure, compliant data exchange,' said Chris Larkin, Concord's Chief Technology Officer. 'At DirectTrust we're excited to share Concord's multimodality approach to secure document exchange. Tools like Digital Fax, Secure File Transfer and, coming this fall, Direct Secure Messaging, or DSM, within our Concord Connect™ suite empower organizations to ingest and route structured and unstructured data seamlessly into downstream workflows. These capabilities are cornerstones in our commitment to helping healthcare organizations streamline the sharing and processing of healthcare data and achieve Straight-Through Processing.' Concord's solutions are engineered to meet the evolving needs of highly regulated healthcare organizations by integrating advanced security safeguards and AI-powered document processing. These capabilities allow sensitive patient data not only to be exchanged securely but also to be processed automatically, dramatically increasing the productivity of administrative teams, reducing costs, and supporting the delivery of care. Larkin will join the event's closing panel, Bringing It Together: The Intersection of Interoperability, Identity & Cybersecurity, at 10:45 a.m. on Aug. 7, where he will share insights on how the company is helping health systems achieve operational resilience and data integrity. He will join Kathryn Ayers Wickenhauser, Chief Strategy Officer, DirectTrust; Mike Green, Chief Information Security Officer, Availity; and Laura Nixon, VP, Interoperability Solutions, Clinical Architecture. These key voices will reflect on the conference's major themes — interoperability, identity, and cybersecurity — and share forward-looking insights on the future of trusted data exchange in healthcare. 'As data is received, integrated, and deployed into patient care and other workflows, we also make sure that our safeguards continue to protect that most valuable asset,' Larkin said. 'We are eager to share our insights along with our fellow panelists and attendees.'
