IDACORP, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2024 Results, Initiates 2025 Earnings Guidance<\/b><\/p>\n

BOISE, Idaho–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nIDACORP, Inc. (NYSE: IDA) reported fourth quarter 2024 net income attributable to IDACORP of $37.9 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, compared with $31.3 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2023. For the full year ended December 31, 2024, IDACORP reported net income attributable to IDACORP of $289.2 million, or $5.50 per diluted share, compared with $261.2 million, or $5.14 per diluted share, in 2023.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIDACORP’s earnings in 2024 benefited from continued strong customer growth, rate changes, spring and summer weather conditions that contributed to higher customer usage, and the use of tax credits under the company\u2019s Idaho regulatory mechanism,\u201d said IDACORP President and Chief Executive Officer Lisa Grow. “Higher depreciation and financing costs partially offset those benefits during the year, as we continued to acquire resources and build infrastructure to respond to rapidly growing customer needs.”\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cTo support ongoing growth and energy reliability and resiliency for all of our customers, we anticipate another year of substantial capital investment,\u201d Grow added.\n<\/p>\n

\nIDACORP is initiating its full-year 2025 earnings guidance in the range of $5.65 to $5.85 per diluted share with the expectation that Idaho Power will use between $60 and $77 million of additional tax credits available under the Idaho regulatory mechanism in 2025. The earnings guidance also assumes normal weather conditions and power supply expenses throughout the year.\n<\/p>\n

Summary of Financial Results<\/b><\/p>\n

\nThe following is a summary of net income attributable to IDACORP and IDACORP’s earnings per diluted share for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands, except earnings per share amounts):\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Net Income – Fourth Quarter 2024<\/b><\/p>\n

\nIDACORP’s net income increased $6.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023, due primarily to higher net income at Idaho Power.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe net increase in retail revenues per MWh, net of power cost adjustment and FCA mechanisms, increased operating income by $8.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase is due primarily to higher Idaho base rates, effective January 1, 2024, per the terms of the settlement stipulation for Idaho Power’s 2023 Idaho general rate case (2023 Settlement Stipulation).\n<\/p>\n

\nIdaho Power’s customer growth of 2.6% added $1.9 million to Idaho Power’s operating income in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023. Usage per retail customer increased operating income by $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023.\n<\/p>\n

\nTotal other O&M expenses in the fourth quarter of 2024 were $13.2 million higher than the fourth quarter of 2023, mainly driven by approximately $4.7 million of increased pension-related expenses and an approximate $7.5 million increase in wildfire mitigation program and related insurance expenses. Both of these increases in expenses were partially offset by increases in retail revenues, as more costs are now recovered in base rates pursuant to the 2023 Settlement Stipulation.\n<\/p>\n

\nDepreciation expense increased $6.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023 due primarily to an increase in plant-in-service.\n<\/p>\n

\nOther changes in operating revenues and expenses, net, increased operating income by $11.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023, due primarily from the successful conclusion to multi-year litigation efforts challenging Idaho and Oregon property tax valuations which resulted in refunds of prior year taxes being finalized in the fourth quarter of 2024. The change was also partially due to the timing of recording and adjusting regulatory accruals and deferrals.\n<\/p>\n

\nNon-operating expense, net, increased $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023. Interest expense on long-term debt increased in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023, due primarily to an increase in long-term debt balances. In addition, Idaho Power’s earnings from its investment in Bridger Coal Company (BCC) decreased $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared with the fourth quarter of 2023, due to a decrease in the amount included and recovered in base rates pursuant to the 2023 Settlement Stipulation. These increases were partially offset by an increase in AFUDC income in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to fourth quarter of 2023, as the average construction work in progress balance was higher. Additionally, interest income increased due to higher average cash balances and interest rates compared with 2023.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe increase in income tax expense was primarily due to fourth quarter 2023 plant-related tax adjustments that resulted in a benefit at Idaho Power. Idaho Power recorded $7.3 million of additional ADITC amortization under its Idaho regulatory settlement stipulation in the fourth quarter of 2024, but reversed $7.5 million of additional ADITC amortization during the fourth quarter of 2023.\n<\/p>\n

Net Income – Full-Year 2024<\/b><\/p>\n

\nIDACORP’s net income increased $28 million for 2024 compared with 2023, due primarily to higher net income at Idaho Power.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe net increase in retail revenues per MWh, net of power cost adjustment and FCA mechanisms, increased operating income by $52.7 million in 2024 compared with 2023. This benefit was primarily due to an overall increase in Idaho base rates, effective January 1, 2024, per the terms of the 2023 Settlement Stipulation.\n<\/p>\n

\nIdaho Power’s customer growth of 2.6 percent added $19.0 million to Idaho Power’s operating income in 2024 compared with 2023. Usage per retail customer increased operating income by $4.5 million in 2024 compared with 2023. Overall, usage per customer was relatively flat for most customer classes, with irrigation customers representing an increase, as higher temperatures during the summer led irrigation customers to run irrigation pumps more frequently.\n<\/p>\n

\nTransmission wheeling-related revenues, net of PCA impacts, decreased $3.0 million during 2024 compared with 2023. Effective January 1, 2024, financial settlement of transmission line losses were subject to the PCA mechanism, as approved in the 2023 Settlement Stipulation, resulting in a smaller contribution of those revenues to net income compared with 2023 when the financial settlement of transmission losses was not subject to the PCA mechanism.\n<\/p>\n

\nOther O&M expenses in 2024 were $61.1 million higher than in 2023, primarily related to approximately $17.7 million of increased pension-related expenses and an approximate $29.5 million increase in wildfire mitigation program and related insurance expenses. Both of these increases were partially offset by increases in retail revenues, as more of those costs are now recovered in base rates pursuant to the 2023 Settlement Stipulation. Inflationary pressures on labor-related costs also contributed to the increase in other O&M expenses. These increases were partially offset by an $8.5 million increase in deferral of other O&M expenses related to the conversion from coal to natural gas for two units at the Jim Bridger plant.\n<\/p>\n

\nDepreciation expense increased $28.1 million in 2024 compared to 2023, due primarily to an increase in plant-in-service.\n<\/p>\n

\nOther changes in operating revenues and expenses, net, increased operating income by $30.8 million in 2024 compared to 2023, due partially to a decrease in net power supply expenses that were not deferred for future recovery in rates through Idaho Power’s power cost adjustment mechanisms. More moderate wholesale natural gas and power market prices in the western United States and increased wholesale energy sales decreased Idaho Power’s net power supply expenses in 2024 compared with 2023. In addition, property taxes contributed to the increase from 2023 to 2024, due primarily to the successful conclusion of multi-year litigation efforts challenging Idaho and Oregon property tax valuations, which resulted in refunds of prior year taxes being finalized in 2024. The change was also partially due to the timing of recording and adjusting regulatory accruals and deferrals.\n<\/p>\n

\nNon-operating expense, net, increased $2.2 million in 2024 compared with 2023. Interest expense on long-term debt increased in 2024 compared with 2023, due primarily to an increase in long-term debt balances. In addition, Idaho Power’s earnings from its investment in BCC decreased due to a decrease in the amount included and recovered in base rates pursuant to the 2023 Settlement Stipulation. These increases were partially offset by an increase in AFUDC income in 2024 compared with 2023, as the average construction work in progress balance was higher. Additionally, interest income increased due to higher average cash balances and interest rates compared with 2023.\n<\/p>\n

\nIdaho Power recorded $29.8 million of additional ADITC amortization under its Idaho regulatory settlement stipulation during 2024, but recorded no additional ADITC amortization during 2023. The $18.6 million increase in income tax expense, excluding additional ADITC amortization, in 2024 compared with 2023 was primarily due to higher income before income taxes and variances in flow-through tax adjustments.\n<\/p>\n

(u) changes in tax laws or related regulations or interpretations of applicable laws or regulations by federal, state, or local taxing jurisdictions, and the availability of expected tax credits or other tax benefits; (v) ability to obtain debt and equity financing or refinance existing debt when necessary and on satisfactory terms, which can be affected by factors such as credit ratings, reputational harm, volatility or disruptions in the financial markets, interest rates, decisions by the Idaho, Oregon, or Wyoming public utility commissions, and the companies’ past or projected financial performance; (w) ability to enter into financial and physical commodity hedges with creditworthy counterparties to manage price and commodity risk for fuel, power, and transmission, and the failure of any such risk management and hedging strategies to work as intended, and the potential losses the companies may incur on those hedges, which can be affected by factors such as the volume of hedging transactions and degree of price volatility; (x) changes in actuarial assumptions, changes in interest rates, increasing health care costs, and the actual and projected return on plan assets for pension and other postretirement plans, which can affect future pension and other postretirement plan funding obligations, costs, and liabilities and the companies’ cash flows;
