NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND OTHER FINANCIAL DATA
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
Sempra
Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Sempra, a California-based holding company, and its consolidated entities, which invest in, develop and operate energy infrastructure in North America, and provide electric and gas services to customers. Sempra has three operating and reportable segments, which we describe in Note 14. All references in these Notes to our reportable segments are not intended to refer to any legal entity with the same or similar name.
SDG&E
SDG&E’s common stock is wholly owned by Enova Corporation, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sempra. SDG&E is a regulated public utility that provides electric service to San Diego and southern Orange counties and natural gas service to San Diego County. SDG&E has one operating and reportable segment.
SoCalGas
SoCalGas’ common stock is wholly owned by Pacific Enterprises, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sempra. SoCalGas is a regulated public natural gas distribution utility, serving customers throughout most of Southern California and part of central California. SoCalGas has one operating and reportable segment.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
This is a combined report of Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas. We provide separate information for SDG&E and SoCalGas as required. We have eliminated intercompany accounts and transactions within Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
We have prepared our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP and in accordance with the interim period reporting requirements of Form 10-Q and applicable rules of the SEC. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. These adjustments are only of a normal, recurring nature. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year or for any other period. We evaluated events and transactions that occurred after September 30, 2025 through the date the financial statements were issued and, in the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation.
All December 31, 2024 balance sheet information in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements has been derived from our audited 2024 Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the interim period reporting provisions of U.S. GAAP and the SEC.
We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report and the impact of the adoption of new accounting standards on those policies in Note 2 below. We follow the same accounting policies for interim period reporting purposes.
The information contained in this report should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report.
REGULATED OPERATIONS
SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ accounting policies and financial statements reflect the application of U.S. GAAP provisions governing rate-regulated operations and the policies of the CPUC and the FERC. We discuss revenue recognition and the effects of regulation at our utilities in Notes 3 and 4 below and in Notes 1, 3 and 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Our Sempra Texas Utilities segment is comprised of our equity method investments in holding companies that own interests in regulated electric transmission and distribution utilities in Texas.
Sempra Infrastructure’s natural gas distribution utility, Ecogas, also applies U.S. GAAP provisions governing rate-regulated operations, including the same evaluation of probability of recovery of regulatory assets described above. Certain business activities at Sempra Infrastructure are regulated by the CNE and the FERC and meet the regulatory accounting requirements of U.S. GAAP.
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
We consolidate a VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary is based on qualitative and quantitative analyses, which assess:
▪the purpose and design of the VIE;
▪the nature of the VIE’s risks and the risks we absorb;
▪the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and
▪the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the VIE.
We will continue to evaluate our VIEs for any changes that may impact our determination of whether an entity is a VIE and if we are the primary beneficiary.
SDG&E
SDG&E’s power procurement is subject to reliability requirements that may require SDG&E to enter into various PPAs that include variable interests. SDG&E evaluates the respective entities to determine if variable interests exist and, based on the qualitative and quantitative analyses described above, if SDG&E, and indirectly Sempra, is the primary beneficiary.
SDG&E has agreements under which it purchases power generated by facilities for which it supplies all of the natural gas to fuel the power plant (i.e., tolling agreements). SDG&E’s obligation to absorb natural gas costs may be a significant variable interest. In addition, SDG&E has the power to direct the dispatch of electricity generated by these facilities. Based on our analysis, the ability to direct the dispatch of electricity may have the most significant impact on the economic performance of the entity owning the generating facility because of the associated exposure to the cost of natural gas, which fuels the plants, and the value of electricity produced. To the extent that SDG&E (1) is obligated to purchase and provide fuel to operate the facility, (2) has the power to direct the dispatch, and (3) purchases all of the output from the facility for a substantial portion of the facility’s useful life, SDG&E may be the primary beneficiary of the entity owning the generating facility. SDG&E determines if it is the primary beneficiary in these cases based on a qualitative approach in which it considers the operational characteristics of the facility, including its expected power generation output relative to its capacity to generate and the financial structure of the entity, among other factors. If SDG&E determines that it is the primary beneficiary, SDG&E and Sempra consolidate the entity that owns the facility as a VIE.
In addition to tolling agreements, other variable interests involve various elements of fuel and power costs, and other components of cash flows expected to be paid to or received by our counterparties. In most of these cases, the expectation of variability is not substantial, and SDG&E generally does not have the power to direct activities, including the operation and maintenance activities of the generating facility, that most significantly impact the economic performance of the other VIEs. If our ongoing evaluation of these VIEs were to conclude that SDG&E becomes the primary beneficiary and consolidation by SDG&E becomes necessary, the effects could be significant to the financial position and liquidity of SDG&E and Sempra.
SDG&E determined that none of its PPAs and tolling agreements resulted in SDG&E being the primary beneficiary of a VIE at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. PPAs and tolling agreements that relate to SDG&E’s involvement with VIEs are primarily accounted for as finance leases. The carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities under these contracts are included in PP&E, net, and finance lease liabilities with balances of $1,116 million and $1,138 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. SDG&E recovers costs incurred on PPAs, tolling agreements and other variable interests through CPUC-approved long-term power procurement plans. SDG&E has no residual interest in the respective entities and has not provided or guaranteed any debt or equity support, liquidity arrangements, performance guarantees or other commitments associated with these contracts other than the purchase commitments described in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report. As a result, SDG&E’s potential exposure to loss from its variable interest in these VIEs is not significant.
Other Sempra
Oncor Holdings
Oncor Holdings is a VIE. Sempra is not the primary beneficiary of this VIE because of the structural and operational ring-fencing and governance measures in place that prevent us from having the power to direct the significant activities of Oncor Holdings. As a result, we do not consolidate Oncor Holdings and instead account for our ownership interest as an equity method investment. See Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report for additional information about our equity method investment in Oncor Holdings and restrictions on our ability to influence its activities. Our maximum exposure to loss, which fluctuates over time, from our interest in Oncor Holdings does not exceed the carrying value of our investment, which is $17,038 million and $15,400 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Cameron LNG JV
Cameron LNG JV is a VIE principally due to contractual provisions that transfer certain risks to customers. Sempra is not the primary beneficiary of this VIE because we do not have the power to direct the most significant activities of Cameron LNG JV, including LNG production and operation and maintenance activities at the liquefaction facility. Therefore, we account for our investment in Cameron LNG JV under the equity method. The carrying value of our investment is $1,198 million, of which $1,181 million is classified as held for sale (see Note 6), at September 30, 2025 and $1,149 million at December 31, 2024. Our maximum exposure to loss, which fluctuates over time, includes the carrying value of our investment and our obligation under the SDSRA, which we discuss in Note 13.
CFIN
As we discuss in Note 13, in July 2020, Sempra entered into a Support Agreement for the benefit of CFIN, which is a VIE. Sempra is not the primary beneficiary of this VIE because we do not have the power to direct the most significant activities of CFIN, including modification, prepayment, and refinance decisions related to the financing arrangement with external lenders and Cameron LNG JV’s four project owners as well as the ability to determine and enforce remedies in the event of default. The conditional obligations of the Support Agreement represent a variable interest that we measure at fair value on a recurring basis (see Note 9). Sempra’s maximum exposure to loss under the terms of the Support Agreement is $979 million, which we discuss in Note 13.
Other VIEs
ECA LNG Phase 1, Port Arthur LNG I and Port Arthur LNG II are VIEs because their total equity at risk is not sufficient to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. We expect that these entities will require future capital contributions or other financial support to finance the construction of their respective liquefaction facilities. Sempra is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs because we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance, including construction and future operation and maintenance of the facilities. As a result, we consolidate these VIEs.
Sempra consolidated $14,130 million and $8,177 million of assets at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, consisting primarily of PP&E, net, and restricted cash attributable to these VIEs that could be used only to settle obligations of these VIEs and that are not available to settle obligations of Sempra, and $5,288 million and $2,664 million of liabilities at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, consisting primarily of long-term debt and accounts payable attributable to these VIEs for which creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of Sempra. At September 30, 2025, these assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale (see Note 6).
Additionally, IEnova and TotalEnergies SE have provided guarantees for repayment of up to $1,226 million and $305 million, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest, of the loan facility supporting construction of the ECA LNG Phase 1 project (see Note 7). Both SI Partners and ConocoPhillips have provided guarantees relating to their respective affiliate’s commitment to make its pro rata equity share of capital contributions to fund 110% of the development budget of the PA LNG Phase 1 project, in an aggregate amount of up to $9.0 billion (see Note 11). SI Partners’ guarantee covers 70% of this amount plus enforcement costs of its guarantee. SI Partners has committed to fund up to $7.8 billion to PA2 JVCo to support its share of the budgeted PA LNG Phase 2 project construction costs, while Blackstone has committed to fund $7.0 billion (see Note 10). SI Partners has also provided a guarantee for repayment of the $300 million credit facility supporting construction of the PA LNG Phase 2 project (see Note 7).

▪certain funds at Port Arthur LNG II for which withdrawals and usage are dictated by the PA2 JVCo LLCA
▪funds denominated in U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos to pay for rights-of-way and other costs pursuant to certain agreements related to pipeline projects
CREDIT LOSSES
Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost
We are exposed to credit losses from financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade and other accounts receivable, amounts due from unconsolidated affiliates, our net investment in sales-type leases and a note receivable.
We regularly monitor and evaluate credit losses and record allowances for expected credit losses, if necessary, for trade and other accounts receivable using a combination of factors, including past-due status based on contractual terms, trends in write-offs, the age of the receivables and customer payment patterns, historical and industry trends, counterparty creditworthiness, economic conditions and specific events, such as bankruptcies, pandemics and other factors. We write off financial assets measured at amortized cost in the period in which we determine they are not recoverable. We record recoveries of amounts previously written off when it is known that they will be recovered.
As we discuss below in “Note Receivable,” we have an interest-bearing promissory note due from KKR Pinnacle. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate credit losses and record allowances for expected credit losses on this note receivable, including compounded interest and unamortized transaction costs, based on published default rate studies, the maturity date of the instrument and an internally developed credit rating.
SDG&E and SoCalGas have regulatory mechanisms to recover credit losses and thus record changes in the allowances for credit losses related to Accounts Receivable – Trade that are probable of recovery in regulatory accounts. We discuss regulatory accounts in Note 4.
Changes in allowances for credit losses for trade receivables, other receivables and a note receivable are as follows:

Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures
We are exposed to credit losses from off-balance sheet arrangements through Sempra’s guarantees, which we discuss in Note 13. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate credit losses and record liabilities for expected credit losses on our off-balance sheet arrangements based on external credit ratings, published default rate studies and the maturity date of the arrangements. On Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, expected credit losses of $5 million are included in Deferred Credits and Other at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and $3 million are included in Liabilities Held for Sale at September 30, 2025.

WILDFIRE FUND AND CONTINUATION ACCOUNT
2019 Wildfire Legislation
In July 2019, the 2019 Wildfire Legislation was signed into law to address certain issues related to catastrophic wildfires in California and their impact on electric IOUs through the establishment of the Wildfire Fund. We discuss the 2019 Wildfire Legislation and related Wildfire Fund further in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
SDG&E expects to submit its request to the OEIS for its annual wildfire safety certification in December 2025. OEIS will have until March 2026 to issue the certification or provide written notice explaining why additional time is needed. SDG&E’s existing certification remains valid until this pending request is resolved.
Wildfire Fund Asset
At September 30, 2025, the carrying value of SDG&E’s Wildfire Fund asset totaled $264 million.
SDG&E recognizes a reduction of its Wildfire Fund asset and records a charge against earnings in the period when there is a reduction of the available coverage due to recoverable claims from any of the participating IOUs. Wildfire claims that are recoverable from the Wildfire Fund, net of anticipated or actual reimbursement to the Wildfire Fund by the responsible IOU, decrease the Wildfire Fund asset and remaining available coverage. SDG&E periodically evaluates the estimated period of benefit of the Wildfire Fund asset based on actual experience and changes in assumptions, including relying on publicly disclosed wildfire-related losses incurred by the other participating IOUs.
In October 2025, a participating IOU publicly disclosed that it has received, or expects to receive, approximately $1.2 billion in aggregate reimbursements from the Wildfire Fund for eligible claims related to wildfires that occurred in 2019 and 2021. In the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025, SDG&E reduced its Wildfire Fund asset by recording $2 million of accelerated amortization in O&M on Sempra’s and SDG&E’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Also in October 2025, another participating IOU publicly disclosed its intent to seek reimbursement from the Wildfire Fund for losses incurred and expected to be incurred in connection with a wildfire that remains under investigation, and for which the cause has not yet been conclusively determined. The administrator of the Wildfire Fund has confirmed that this wildfire qualifies as a “covered wildfire” for purposes of accessing the fund. The participating IOU has stated that it is currently unable to reasonably estimate a range of potential losses associated with this event. Accordingly, SDG&E is unable to estimate a range of potential loss resulting from any reduction in available coverage from the Wildfire Fund.
2025 Wildfire Legislation
In September 2025, the 2025 Wildfire Legislation was signed into law. The 2025 Wildfire Legislation established, among other things, the Continuation Account, a new state-administered account with up to $18.0 billion of additional liquidity to reimburse catastrophic wildfire-related claims incurred by large California electric IOUs, including SDG&E, if the Wildfire Fund is depleted. The 2025 Wildfire Legislation preserves key elements of the 2019 Wildfire Legislation, including cost recovery standards and requirements, a cap on liability in the event of a finding of imprudence by the CPUC, and continued access to wildfire claims liquidity through the new Continuation Account.
The Continuation Account will become operative if, prior to December 31, 2028, either (i) the Wildfire Fund’s administrator projects that the original Wildfire Fund will be depleted, or (ii) a participating electric IOU notifies the Wildfire Fund’s administrator that it anticipates more than $1.0 billion in eligible claims in a single coverage year for one or more wildfires that ignite after September 19, 2025, the effective date of the 2025 Wildfire Legislation. All of California’s large electric IOUs, including SDG&E, have elected to participate in the Continuation Account.
If the Continuation Account becomes operative, it would be funded with a combination of ratepayer and electric IOU shareholder contributions. Ratepayer contributions totaling $9.0 billion would be financed through new bonds to be issued by the California Department of Water Resources and secured by the extension of an existing Wildfire Fund-related non-bypassable ratepayer charge from 2036-2045, subject to a determination by the CPUC that the extension is just and reasonable. Electric IOU shareholder contributions totaling $5.1 billion would be obtained through fixed annual contributions of $300 million from 2029 through 2045, plus an additional $3.9 billion in contingent shareholder contributions payable in annual installments of $780 million if the Wildfire Fund’s administrator determines there is additional need, subject to a potential ratepayer credit of 50% of the amount of any remaining contingent contribution installments if the Wildfire Fund’s administrator terminates the Continuation Account prior to their collection. SDG&E’s proportionate share of the aggregate shareholder contribution amount through 2045 is expected to be $387 million, comprising (i) $219.3 million of fixed contributions of $12.9 million annually for 17 years, and (ii) $167.7 million of contingent contributions of $33.5 million annually for five years.
Only claims arising from wildfires that ignited on or after September 19, 2025 in excess of the greater of $1.0 billion or the amount of insurance coverage required by the Wildfire Fund’s administrator are eligible for reimbursement from the Continuation Account. As with the 2019 Wildfire Legislation, for participating electric IOUs that have received a safety certification, reimbursements to the Continuation Account with electric IOU shareholder contributions are not required if a CPUC reasonableness review, conducted under the prudency standards established by the 2019 Wildfire Legislation, results in a finding that the participating IOU acted prudently. Reimbursements to the Continuation Account with electric IOU shareholder contributions are required for wildfire liabilities deemed imprudently incurred, but the amount of the reimbursement is subject to a cap if the Continuation Account is not otherwise depleted. The applicable participating electric IOU may credit its shareholder contributions to the Continuation Account against required reimbursements, subject to a cap equal to the lesser of (i) the disallowed costs, or (ii) 20% of the electric IOU’s total transmission and distribution equity rate base for the year of ignition of the applicable wildfire, less (a) prior reimbursements by the electric IOU for any covered wildfire-related disallowances within three years before the date of ignition of the applicable wildfire, and (b) any unused shareholder contributions by the electric IOU not already credited. SDG&E’s current estimated cap, which will vary over time, is approximately $1.4 billion based on its 2024 transmission and distribution equity rate base.
As with the 2019 Wildfire Legislation, participating electric IOUs are not permitted to earn an equity return on a certain amount of capital investments supporting wildfire risk mitigation. The 2025 Wildfire Legislation establishes this amount as $6.0 billion of wildfire risk mitigation capital investments authorized by the CPUC after January 1, 2026, and SDG&E’s proportionate share is limited to $258 million.
If the Continuation Account becomes operative, SDG&E would record an obligation for its commitment to make shareholder contributions to the Continuation Account.
NOTE RECEIVABLE
In November 2021, Sempra loaned $300 million to KKR Pinnacle in exchange for an interest-bearing promissory note that is due in full no later than October 2029 and bears compound interest at 5% per annum, which may be paid quarterly or added to the outstanding principal at the election of KKR Pinnacle. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, Other Long-Term Assets includes $363 million and $349 million, respectively, of outstanding principal, compounded interest and unamortized transaction costs, net of allowance for credit losses, on Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
At the closing of the sale of a portion of our equity interest in SI Partners, which we discuss in Note 6, Sempra and the KKR Partners will amend this $300 million promissory note to, among other things, extend its maturity date and increase its interest rate to 8.5% per annum before January 1, 2031 and 10.0% thereafter through a due date seven years and 91 days after the closing.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Sempra Infrastructure’s Sonora natural gas pipeline consists of two pipeline segments, the Sasabe-Puerto Libertad-Guaymas segment and the Guaymas-El Oro segment. Each segment has its own service agreement with the CFE. Following the start of commercial operations of the Guaymas-El Oro segment, Sempra Infrastructure reported damage to the pipeline in the Yaqui territory that has made that section inoperable since August 2017 because it was not able to be repaired due to legal challenges, which were resolved in March 2023, by some members of the Yaqui tribe. Sempra Infrastructure and the CFE have agreed to an amendment to their transportation services agreement and to re-route the portion of the pipeline that is in the Yaqui territory, whereby the CFE would pay for the re-routing with a new tariff. This amendment will terminate if certain conditions are not met, and Sempra Infrastructure retains the right to terminate the transportation services agreement and seek to recover its reasonable and documented costs and lost profit. Sempra Infrastructure continues to acquire and pursue the necessary rights-of-way and permits for the portion of the pipeline that needs to be re-routed.
The Guaymas-El Oro segment will continue to be owned by and a Sole Risk Project of Sempra after closing the sale of a portion of our equity interest in SI Partners, which we discuss in Note 6. At September 30, 2025, Sempra Infrastructure has $391 million in PP&E, net, related to the Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline, which could be subject to impairment if, among other things, Sempra Infrastructure is unable to re-route a portion of the pipeline and resume operations or if Sempra Infrastructure terminates the contract and is unable to obtain recovery.

In the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, reclassifications out of AOCI to net income were negligible for SDG&E.
PENSION AND PBOP
Special Termination Benefits
In the second quarter of 2025, certain eligible employees retired under a VREP and received an additional postretirement health benefit in the form of a $100,000 Health Reimbursement Account. Employees eligible to participate in the VREP consisted of SDG&E represented and non-represented employees and SoCalGas non-represented employees aged 62 years or older with five years of service or ages 55 to 61 with 10 years of service as of May 31, 2025, and SoCalGas represented employees aged 65 or older with five years of service or ages 55 to 64 with 15 years of service as of June 30, 2025. We treated the benefit obligation attributable to the Health Reimbursement Account as a special termination benefit. This resulted in increases to the recorded liability for PBOP and net periodic benefit cost of $40 million for Sempra, $17 million for SDG&E and $23 million for SoCalGas in the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Partial Plan Termination
In connection with the planned sale of a portion of our equity interest in SI Partners, which we discuss in Note 6, Sempra entered into an agreement to contribute Sempra Services Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sempra, to SI Partners. Sempra Services Corporation employs U.S. employees performing services for SI Partners and is a participating employer in Sempra’s noncontributory defined benefit pension and PBOP plans. Upon closing the sale, which we expect to occur in the second or third quarter of 2026, Sempra Services Corporation will cease to be a participating employer in Sempra’s pension and PBOP plans. This will result in a partial termination of Sempra’s pension plan due to a reduction in the number of active participants by more than 20%. All impacted participants will be fully vested in their pension benefits as of the termination date. We expect to recognize the financial statement impact, which is currently probable but not estimable, including adjustments to pension and PBOP liabilities, AOCI, curtailment and special termination benefit accounting at the close of the sale. The financial impact for settlement accounting will be recognized when the lump sum payout crosses the annual settlement threshold.
Net Periodic Benefit Cost

Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas record income taxes for interim periods utilizing a forecasted ETR anticipated for the full year. Unusual and infrequent items and items that cannot be reliably estimated are recorded in the interim period in which they occur, which can result in variability in the ETR.
For SDG&E and SoCalGas, the CPUC requires flow-through rate-making treatment for the current income tax benefit or expense arising from certain property-related and other temporary differences between the treatment for financial reporting and income tax, which will reverse over time. Under the regulatory accounting treatment required for these flow-through temporary differences, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are not recorded to deferred income tax expense, but rather to a regulatory asset or liability that will be flowed through to customers in the future, which impacts the ETR. As a result, changes in the relative size of these items compared to pretax income, from period to period, can cause variations in the ETR. Items subject to flow-through treatment include:
▪repairs expenditures related to certain utility plant fixed assets
▪the equity component of AFUDC, which is non-taxable
▪cost of removal related to certain utility plant assets
▪utility self-developed software expenditures
▪depreciation related to certain utility plant assets
▪state income taxes
AFUDC related to equity recorded for regulated construction projects at Sempra Infrastructure has similar flow-through treatment.
The OBBBA was signed into law on July 4, 2025. The OBBBA includes revisions to tax credits and other incentives for energy and climate initiatives of the Inflation Reduction Act enacted in 2022 and extends or revises key provisions of the TCJA, among other changes. Effective January 1, 2025, we have adopted the provisions of OBBBA, which include immediate expensing of domestic research and experimental expenditures, including utility self-developed software expenditures, under the new Internal Revenue Code Section 174A. This change supersedes prior rules requiring five-year amortization of domestic research and experimental expenditures under the TCJA. In accordance with IRS transitional guidance (Revenue Procedure 2025-28), we plan to elect to accelerate deductions for domestic unamortized utility self-developed software expenditures incurred in tax years 2022-2024, with remaining balances deductible over 2025 and 2026. As a result, Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas recorded an income tax benefit of $73 million, $26 million and $47 million, respectively, in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025. We will continue to monitor guidance issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the IRS.
In connection with classifying SI Partners and Ecogas as held for sale, which we discuss in Note 6, we recognized income tax expense of $514 million and $552 million in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. We have previously included unrecognized income tax benefits in our annual tabular reconciliation related to our investment in SI Partners. As a result of the held for sale classification and the anticipated closing of the sale, we believe it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $150 million in unrecognized income tax benefits related to outside basis differences and Mexico tax liabilities will be necessary in the next 12 months. These changes in unrecognized income tax benefits would not decrease or increase the effective tax rate.
NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
We describe below recent accounting pronouncements that have had or may have a significant effect on our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows or disclosures.
ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”: ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring disaggregated information about each Registrant’s ETR reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. For each annual period, each Registrant will be required to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5% of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We will adopt the standard on December 31, 2025.
ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”: ASU 2024-03 mandates detailed disclosures on the disaggregation of income statement expenses. Public business entities are required to disclose in the notes to financial statements the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. The standard also requires disclosure of the amount, and a qualitative description of, other items remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and entities may adopt the standard on either a prospective or retrospective basis. We intend to adopt the standard on January 1, 2027 on a prospective basis.
ASU 2025-05, “Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets”: ASU 2025-05 amends ASC 326-20 to provide a practical expedient for all entities related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from transactions accounted for under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods on a prospective basis. We intend to adopt the standard on January 1, 2026 and expect to elect the practical expedient on a prospective basis for eligible current accounts receivable and contract assets. We do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.

NOTE 4. REGULATORY MATTERS
REGULATORY ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
We discuss regulatory matters in Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report and provide updates to those discussions and information about new regulatory matters below. With the exception of regulatory balancing accounts, we generally do not earn a return on our regulatory assets until a related cash expenditure has been made. Upon the occurrence of a cash expenditure associated with a regulatory asset, the related amounts are recoverable through a regulatory account mechanism for which we earn a return authorized by applicable regulators, which generally approximates the three-month commercial paper rate. The periods during which we recognize a regulatory asset while we do not earn a return vary by regulatory asset.

In July 2025, the CPUC issued an FD that authorizes partial recovery of costs recorded in SoCalGas’ Catastrophic Event Memorandum Account. The FD authorizes the recovery of $19 million out of the requested $55 million, denying recovery of COVID-19 costs included in the Catastrophic Event Memorandum Account. In the nine months ended September 30, 2025, SoCalGas recorded a write-off of $36 million ($25 million after tax) in disallowed costs, comprising a $29 million reduction in Utilities: Natural Gas Revenues and a $7 million reduction in regulatory interest in Other (Expense) Income, Net, on Sempra’s and SoCalGas’ Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. SoCalGas has filed a request with the CPUC for a rehearing of the FD. SoCalGas expects to receive a post-rehearing FD in the first half of 2026.
CPUC GRC
The CPUC uses GRCs to set base revenues to allow SDG&E and SoCalGas to recover their reasonable operating costs and to provide the opportunity to realize their authorized rates of return on their capital investments. In December 2024, the CPUC approved an FD in the 2024 GRC for SDG&E and SoCalGas that authorizes SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ revenue requirements for 2024 and attrition year adjustments for 2025 through 2027, inclusively.
The GRC FD adopts a 2024 revenue requirement of $2,699 million for SDG&E’s combined operations ($2,193 million for its electric operations and $506 million for its natural gas operations). SDG&E’s authorized 2024 combined revenue requirement represents an increase of $189 million (7.5%) over its authorized 2023 combined revenue requirement. In connection with SDG&E’s election to change its tax accounting method for gas repairs expenditures, the 2024 combined revenue requirement increase is net of $68 million of income tax benefits for 2023 and 2024 to be flowed through to customers. The GRC FD also specifies an increase in SDG&E’s 2025, 2026, and 2027 combined revenue requirements of $147 million (5.45%), $119 million (4.17%) and $122 million (4.11%), respectively, over the preceding year’s combined revenue requirement. The 2025, 2026 and 2027 revenue requirements will be updated to implement the applicable authorized changes in the cost of capital, which we describe below.
The GRC FD adopts a 2024 revenue requirement of $3,806 million for SoCalGas. SoCalGas’ authorized 2024 revenue requirement represents an increase of $324 million (9.3%) over its authorized 2023 revenue requirement. In connection with SoCalGas’ election to change its tax accounting method for gas repairs expenditures, the 2024 revenue requirement increase is net of $202 million of income tax benefits for 2023 and 2024 to be flowed through to customers. The GRC FD also specifies an increase in SoCalGas’ 2025, 2026, and 2027 revenue requirements of $190 million (5.00%), $116 million (2.91%) and $120 million (2.92%), respectively, over the preceding year’s revenue requirement. The 2025, 2026 and 2027 revenue requirements will be updated to implement the applicable authorized changes in the cost of capital, which we describe below.
Since the GRC FD was effective retroactive to January 1, 2024, SDG&E and SoCalGas recorded the retroactive impacts in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The GRC provides SDG&E and SoCalGas with numerous mechanisms to seek cost recovery of specified projects and programs. We expect that the requests for cost recovery of these projects and programs, which remain subject to CPUC approval, may result in additional amounts of authorized revenue requirement that are not included in the amounts described above.
2024 GRC Track 2
In October 2023, SDG&E submitted a separate request to the CPUC in its 2024 GRC, known as a Track 2 request. This request seeks review and recovery of $1.5 billion of wildfire mitigation plan costs incurred from 2019 through 2022 that were in addition to amounts authorized in the 2019 GRC and not addressed in the 2024 GRC FD. SDG&E expects to receive a proposed decision for its Track 2 request by the end of 2025.
Revenue requirements associated with the Track 2 request have been recorded in a regulatory account. In February 2024, the CPUC approved an interim cost recovery mechanism that permits SDG&E to recover in rates $194 million and $96 million of this regulatory account balance in 2024 and 2025, respectively. Such recovery of SDG&E’s wildfire mitigation plan regulatory account balance will be subject to refund, contingent on the reasonableness review decision for its Track 2 request.
2024 GRC Track 3
In April 2025, SDG&E and SoCalGas each submitted additional requests to the CPUC in the 2024 GRC, known as Track 3 requests. SDG&E submitted a request seeking review and recovery of $417 million of its wildfire mitigation plan costs incurred in 2023 that were in addition to the amounts authorized in the 2019 GRC and not addressed in the 2024 GRC. Additionally, SDG&E and SoCalGas submitted a combined request seeking review and recovery of $240 million and $499 million, respectively, of PSEP costs incurred from 2014 through 2019 and 2015 through 2020, respectively. SDG&E and SoCalGas expect to receive proposed decisions for their Track 3 requests in the first half of 2026.
Revenue requirements associated with the Track 3 requests have been recorded in regulatory accounts. SDG&E and SoCalGas are authorized interim rate recovery of up to 50% of the recorded PSEP regulatory account balance at the end of each year. Such interim rate recovery is subject to refund, contingent on the reasonableness review decision for their Track 3 requests.
CPUC COST OF CAPITAL
A CPUC cost of capital proceeding every three years determines a utility’s authorized capital structure and authorized return on rate base. The CCM applies in the interim years and considers changes in the cost of capital based on changes in interest rates based on the applicable utility bond index published by Moody’s (the CCM benchmark rate) for each 12-month period ending September 30 (the measurement period). The index applicable to SDG&E and SoCalGas is based on each utility’s credit rating. The CCM benchmark rate is the basis of comparison to determine if the CCM is triggered in each measurement period, which occurs if the change in the applicable Moody’s utility bond index relative to the CCM benchmark rate is larger than plus or minus 1.00% for the measurement period. The CCM, if triggered, would automatically update the authorized cost of debt based on actual costs and update the authorized ROE upward or downward by 20% of the difference between the CCM benchmark rate and the applicable Moody’s utility bond index, subject to regulatory approval. Alternatively, SDG&E and SoCalGas are each permitted to file a cost of capital application to have its cost of capital determined in lieu of the CCM in an interim year in which an extraordinary or catastrophic event materially impacts its cost of capital and affects utilities differently than the market as a whole.
The following table summarizes the CPUC-approved cost of capital for SDG&E and SoCalGas. The authorized weighting remained unchanged for each of the years presented.

In March 2025, SDG&E and SoCalGas each filed applications with the CPUC seeking to update their cost of capital for 2026 through 2028, subject to the CCM. SDG&E and SoCalGas expect to receive an FD by the end of 2025.

FERC RATE MATTERS
SDG&E files separately with the FERC for its authorized transmission revenue requirement and ROE on FERC-regulated electric transmission operations and assets.
TO5 Settlement
SDG&E’s authorized TO5 settlement provided for an ROE of 10.60%, consisting of a base ROE of 10.10% plus the California ISO adder. In December 2024, the FERC issued an order, which SDG&E has appealed, finding that SDG&E is not eligible for the California ISO adder and that the TO5 adder refund provision had been triggered, requiring SDG&E to refund customers the California ISO adder retroactively from June 1, 2019.
TO6 Filing
In October 2024, SDG&E submitted its TO6 filing to the FERC and requested it to be effective January 1, 2025. SDG&E’s TO6 filing proposes, among other items, an increase to SDG&E’s currently authorized base ROE from 10.10% to 11.75% plus the California ISO adder, for a total ROE of 12.25%. In December 2024, the FERC accepted SDG&E’s TO6 filing, subject to refund; suspended the effective date to June 1, 2025; established hearing and settlement judge procedures; and disallowed the inclusion of the California ISO adder, the last of which SDG&E has appealed.
NOTE 5. SEMPRA – INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES
We generally account for investments under the equity method when we have significant influence over, but do not have control of, these entities. Equity earnings and losses, both before and net of income tax, are combined and presented as Equity Earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Distributions received from equity method investees are classified in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as either a return on investment in operating activities or a return of investment in investing activities based on the “nature of the distribution” approach. See Note 14 for information on equity earnings and losses, both before and net of income tax, by segment. See Note 1 for information on how equity earnings and losses before income taxes are factored into the calculations of our pretax income or loss and ETR.
We provide additional information concerning our equity method investments in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.

Oncor Holdings
We account for our 100% equity ownership interest in Oncor Holdings, which owns an 80.25% interest in Oncor, as an equity method investment. Due to the ring-fencing measures, governance mechanisms and commitments in effect, we do not have the power to direct the significant activities of Oncor Holdings and Oncor. See Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report for additional information related to the restrictions on our ability to direct the significant activities of Oncor Holdings and Oncor.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, Sempra contributed $1.5 billion and $578 million, respectively, to Oncor Holdings, and Oncor Holdings distributed $459 million and $314 million, respectively, to Sempra. On October 29, 2025, Sempra contributed $519 million to Oncor Holdings, and on October 28, 2025, Oncor Holdings distributed $175 million to Sempra.

Assets Held for Sale
We classify assets as held for sale once all applicable criteria under U.S. GAAP have been satisfied, including when management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a formal plan to actively market an asset for sale and expects the sale to close within the next twelve months. Upon classifying a group of assets as held for sale, we record the disposal group at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value reduced for selling costs, and we stop recording depreciation and amortization expense on those assets.
We summarize the carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and related liabilities of SI Partners, inclusive of Ecogas, classified as held for sale in the following table.
| | | | | | | | |

At September 30, 2025, $28 million of accumulated losses is included in AOCI and is part of the disposal group that is held for sale.
We considered the estimated fair value of our assets held for sale, less costs to sell, and determined that no adjustment to carrying value was required. In estimating fair value, we used a discounted cash flow valuation technique. In the event that the estimated sales price, less transaction costs, is less than the carrying value, or updated market information indicates fair value may be less than carrying value, we would recognize a loss in our results of operations at that time.
SI Partners
In September 2025, we entered into an agreement to sell 45% of the outstanding Class A Units and all general partner interests in SI Partners to the KKR Partners for an aggregate base purchase price of approximately $9.99 billion, subject to the adjustments described below. SI Partners owns LNG and natural gas infrastructure in the U.S. and Mexico and renewable energy and related assets in Mexico.
Subject to adjustments, the purchase price will be paid to Sempra as follows:
▪$4.65 billion in cash at closing;
▪$4.14 billion plus interest compounded quarterly at 7.5% per annum (totaling $4.72 billion with principal and accrued interest unless paid early) due December 31, 2027 under instruments backed by equity commitment letters; and
▪$1.2 billion plus interest compounded quarterly at 8.5% per annum before January 1, 2031 and 10.0% per annum thereafter (totaling $2.29 billion with principal and accrued interest unless paid early) due seven years and 91 days after closing under promissory notes.
The instruments and notes will be issued by indirect equity holders of the KKR Partners and will be ranked behind senior debt incurred by subsidiaries of the issuers.
The purchase price is subject to adjustments for changes in net debt, net working capital and capital expenditures as of December 31, 2025, among others. The purchase price is subject to further adjustments for certain capital contributions by and distributions to Sempra in 2026 before the closing. In addition, transaction fees of the KKR Partners of $337.5 million will be deducted from the purchase price at the closing and a development credit of $340 million will be payable by Sempra over two years starting in 2026. There may also be post-closing purchase price adjustments based on the performance through 2028 of certain wind power facilities, and an adjustment payable by Sempra for capital expenditures related to the ECA LNG Phase 1 project under construction.
We expect the sale to close in the second or third quarter of 2026, subject to expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act; receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, such as antitrust approvals in Mexico and approval by the FERC; receipt of certain other third-party consents or waivers; the absence of a material adverse effect on SI Partners; the absence of specific downgrade events under certain financing arrangements; and other customary closing conditions. Because the closing cannot occur before March 31, 2026, a ticking fee payable to Sempra of 0.625% per month on the aggregate base purchase price will accrue daily beginning April 1, 2026. If the KKR Partners fail to complete the closing when all closing conditions are satisfied, Sempra will receive a termination fee of $414 million. Any party may terminate the agreement if the closing has not occurred within 12 months after signing.
Subject to closing, the KKR Partners will own 65% of SI Partners, Sempra will retain a 25% interest and ADIA will retain a 10% interest. As we discuss below, the KKR Partners will have control of SI Partners and Sempra and ADIA will have certain minority rights in SI Partners. As a result of our loss of control upon completion of the sale, we will deconsolidate SI Partners and account for our 25% interest in SI Partners under the equity method within the existing Sempra Infrastructure segment.
In connection with signing the agreement for the sale, in September 2025, we classified SI Partners as held for sale, ceased recording depreciation and amortization, and recognized $514 million in Income Tax Expense on Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations to (i) adjust deferred income tax liabilities related to outside basis differences in our investment in SI Partners, (ii) account for changes to state income tax apportionment, and (iii) account for valuation allowances against certain tax credit carryforwards. The amount of this charge is based on certain assumptions and could change substantially in subsequent quarters and at the closing due to, among other things, changes to current carrying values, changes in forecasted taxable income, purchase price adjustments, and changes to tax positions and other assumptions.
Post-Closing Limited Partnership Agreement. At closing, we will enter into an amended and restated limited partnership agreement with the KKR Partners and ADIA. The limited partnership agreement provides that the KKR Partners will have the right to appoint four managers, Sempra will have the right to appoint two managers, and ADIA will have the right to appoint one manager to the SI Partners board of managers, with matters decided by majority vote based on the limited partners’ ownership percentages. The minority partners will have certain minority consent rights so long as they maintain specified ownership thresholds. Subject to exceptions and limitations, SI Partners will be prohibited from taking certain actions, including, among others: (i) redeeming units or making distributions to its limited partners other than on a pro rata basis or as expressly permitted under the partnership agreement; (ii) under certain circumstances, transferring, disposing or issuing equity securities in any subsidiary undertaking or owning a project that has reached a positive FID; (iii) appointing a replacement chief executive officer; (iv) approving certain capital expenditures; and (v) reaching a positive FID on any project, in each case without prior approval from KKR, Sempra and, in some cases, other limited partners holding at least a specified minimum percentage of ownership.
SI Partners will be required to distribute quarterly at least 85% of its distributable cash flow, subject to certain exceptions and reserves. Generally, distributions will be made to the limited partners on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective ownership interests, except that the KKR Partners will be entitled to a post-closing distribution of an additional 31.5% of the $1.9 billion true-up payment from Port Arthur LNG II to Port Arthur LNG I to acquire a 50% interest in the shared common facilities. The limited partners will be required to fund capital calls under certain circumstances, which vary depending on whether a project has reached positive FID. Sempra will continue to have substantially similar funding obligations as it has before the sale for cost overruns in certain projects, including the ECA LNG Phase 1 project and the PA LNG Phase 1 project.
If a project fails to receive the required limited partner approvals to achieve FID, the KKR Partners will be permitted to proceed with the project independently through a different investment vehicle or as a “Sole Risk Project” within SI Partners in exchange for “Sole Risk Interests.” Sole Risk Projects are separated from other SI Partners projects and are conducted at the holder’s sole cost, expense and liability, and the holder receives, through the acquisition of Sole Risk Interests, the economic and other benefits, if any, from such projects. The Guaymas-El Oro segment of the Sonora pipeline will continue to be owned by and a Sole Risk Project of Sempra. Sempra is solely responsible for costs associated with the pipeline and any proceeds from a sale of the pipeline would be split between Sempra (90%) and ADIA (10%), subject to adjustments.
Under the limited partnership agreement, Sempra will be restricted from transferring its ownership interest in SI Partners before January 1, 2029. Any proposed transfer (other than a permitted transfer) by a minority partner to a third party will be subject to a right of first offer of the KKR Partners. The minority partners will have co-sale rights in respect of any transfer by the KKR Partners of over 50% of SI Partners’ equity interests. The KKR Partners will have customary drag-along rights in connection with any sale of SI Partners, provided that the minority partners obtain minimum return thresholds. The limited partners have customary registration rights in the event of an initial public offering of SI Partners.
Ecogas
In June 2025, management committed to a formal plan to market and sell Ecogas, a natural gas regulated distribution utility that operates in three separate distribution zones in Mexicali, Chihuahua and La Laguna-Durango, Mexico. We expect to complete the sale in the second or third quarter of 2026. As a result of satisfying all applicable criteria, we classified Ecogas’ assets and liabilities as held for sale and ceased depreciation and amortization.
In connection with classifying Ecogas as held for sale, we recognized $38 million in Income Tax Expense on Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 for a Mexican deferred income tax liability related to the excess of carrying value over the tax basis (outside basis difference). Since this $38 million ($26 million after NCI) of Mexican income tax expense on our outside basis difference is based on current carrying value, foreign exchange rates and inflation at September 30, 2025, this amount could change in future periods until the date of sale.
NOTE 7. DEBT AND CREDIT FACILITIES
The principal terms of our debt arrangements are described below and in Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
SHORT-TERM DEBT
Committed Lines of Credit
At September 30, 2025, Sempra had an aggregate capacity of $10.2 billion under eight primary committed lines of credit, which provide liquidity and support our commercial paper programs. Because our commercial paper programs are supported by some of these lines of credit, we reflect the amount of commercial paper outstanding, before reductions of any unamortized discounts, and any letters of credit outstanding as a reduction to the available unused credit capacity in the following table.

(1) In October 2025, Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas each amended their respective credit facility to extend the expiration date from October 2029 to October 2030.
(2) In September 2025, SI Partners and IEnova amended their shared credit facility to extend the expiration date from September 2025 to September 2026.
Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas each must maintain a ratio of indebtedness to total capitalization (as defined in each of the applicable credit facilities) of no more than 65% at the end of each quarter. At September 30, 2025, each Registrant was in compliance with this ratio under its respective credit facility.
The three lines of credit that are shared by SI Partners and its subsidiary, IEnova, require that SI Partners maintain a ratio of consolidated adjusted net indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (as defined in each credit facility) of no more than 5.25 to 1.00 at the end of each quarter. At September 30, 2025, SI Partners was in compliance with this ratio.
In September 2025, Port Arthur LNG II entered into a working capital facility agreement, reflected in the table above, that permits borrowings of up to $300 million, which bear interest by reference to term SOFR, plus the applicable margin and a credit adjustment spread. The credit facility also provides for the issuance of up to $300 million of letters of credit, which reduces available unused credit. SI Partners has provided a guarantee for repayment of the $300 million credit facility supporting construction of the PA LNG Phase 2 project.
Additionally, the three lines of credit that are shared by SI Partners and IEnova and the Port Arthur LNG I and Port Arthur LNG II credit facilities are included in the held for sale disposal group that we discuss in Note 6 but remain legally accessible and a source of available credit to Sempra Infrastructure until the sale of a portion of our equity interest in SI Partners closes.
Uncommitted Line of Credit
ECA LNG Phase 1 has an uncommitted line of credit with an aggregate capacity of $100 million that expires in August 2026. Borrowings are generally used for working capital requirements and can be in U.S. dollars or Mexican pesos. At September 30, 2025, ECA LNG Phase 1 had outstanding borrowings of $10 million, before reductions of any unamortized discounts, in Mexican pesos that bear interest at a variable rate based on the 28-day Interbank Equilibrium Interest Rate plus 154 bps. Borrowings made in U.S. dollars bear interest at a variable rate based on the one-month or three-month SOFR plus 164 bps and a credit adjustment spread of 10 bps.
Uncommitted Letters of Credit
Outside of our domestic and foreign credit facilities, we have unsecured standby letter of credit capacity with select lenders that is uncommitted and supported by reimbursement agreements. At September 30, 2025, we had $2.0 billion in standby letters of credit outstanding under these agreements.

In September 2025, SI Partners entered into a $1.5 billion unsecured standby letter of credit agreement, reflected in the table above, to support construction of the PA LNG Phase 2 project. The available capacity is subject to reduction as construction progresses and milestones are completed.
Term Loans
SoCalGas
In May 2024, SoCalGas entered into a $500 million, 364-day term loan facility with a maturity date of May 22, 2025, and in December 2024, SoCalGas increased the amount of the term loan to $700 million. SoCalGas borrowed the full $700 million available under the term loan, net of negligible debt issuance costs. The borrowings bore interest at a per annum rate equal to term SOFR, plus 80 bps and a credit adjustment spread of 10 bps. SoCalGas used the proceeds to repay commercial paper and for other general corporate purposes. SoCalGas repaid the term loan in full in May 2025, at which time the term loan facility ceased to be in effect.
Other Sempra
In May 2025, Sempra entered into a $1.25 billion, 364-day term loan facility with a maturity date of 364 days from the initial borrowing date. On July 28, 2025, Sempra borrowed the full $1.25 billion available under the term loan. Sempra was permitted to request an increase in the term loan facility of up to $500 million prior to the maturity date, subject to lender approval, which it requested, received and borrowed in full in October 2025. The borrowings bear interest at a per annum rate equal to term SOFR, plus 80 bps and a credit adjustment spread of 10 bps. Sempra used the proceeds for working capital, capital expenditures, other general corporate purposes and to pay a portion of the cost to redeem all outstanding shares of Sempra’s series C preferred stock.
Weighted-Average Interest Rates
The weighted-average interest rates on all short-term debt are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| WEIGHTED-AVERAGE INTEREST RATES | | | |

LONG-TERM DEBT
SDG&E
In March 2025, SDG&E issued $850 million aggregate principal amount of 5.40% first mortgage bonds due in full upon maturity on April 15, 2035 and received proceeds of $840 million (net of debt discount, underwriting discounts and debt issuance costs of $10 million). The first mortgage bonds are redeemable prior to maturity, subject to their terms, and in certain circumstances subject to make-whole provisions. SDG&E used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repayment of outstanding commercial paper and other indebtedness.
SoCalGas
In May 2025, SoCalGas issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.45% first mortgage bonds due in full upon maturity on June 15, 2035 and received proceeds of $592 million (net of debt discount, underwriting discounts and debt issuance costs of $8 million), and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% first mortgage bonds due in full upon maturity on June 15, 2055 and received proceeds of $488 million (net of debt discount, underwriting discounts, and debt issuance costs of $12 million). Each series of first mortgage bonds is redeemable prior to maturity, subject to its terms, and in certain circumstances subject to make-whole provisions. SoCalGas used the net proceeds to repay outstanding indebtedness and for other general corporate purposes.
Other Sempra
Sempra
In August 2025, Sempra issued $800 million aggregate principal amount of 6.375% fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes maturing on April 1, 2056. Interest on the notes accrues from and including August 29, 2025 and is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2026. The notes bear interest (i) from and including August 29, 2025 to, but excluding, April 1, 2031 at the rate of 6.375% per annum and (ii) from and including April 1, 2031, during each subsequent five-year period beginning on April 1 of every fifth year, at a rate per annum equal to the Five-year U.S. Treasury Rate (as defined in the notes) as of the day falling two business days before the first day of such five-year period plus a spread of 2.632%, to be reset on April 1 of every fifth year beginning in 2031; provided that the interest rate during any such five-year period will not reset below 6.375% per annum. We received proceeds of $791 million (net of underwriting discounts and debt issuance costs of $9 million). We used the proceeds from the offering to pay a portion of the cost to redeem all outstanding shares of Sempra’s series C preferred stock.
We may redeem some or all of the notes before their maturity, as follows:
▪in whole or in part, (i) on any day in the period commencing on the date falling 90 days prior to, and ending on and including April 1, 2031 and (ii) after April 1, 2031, on any interest payment date, at a redemption price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus, subject to the terms of the notes, accrued and unpaid interest on the notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date;
▪in whole but not in part, at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of a tax event (as defined in the notes) at a redemption price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes, plus, subject to the terms of the notes, accrued and unpaid interest on the notes to, but excluding, the redemption date; and
▪in whole but not in part, at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of a rating agency event (as defined in the notes) at a redemption price in cash equal to 102% of the principal amount of the notes, plus, subject to the terms of the notes, accrued and unpaid interest on the notes to, but excluding, the redemption date.
The notes are unsecured obligations and rank junior and subordinate in right of payment to our existing and future senior indebtedness. The notes rank equally in right of payment with our existing 4.125% fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes due 2052, 6.40% fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes due 2054, 6.875% fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes due 2054, 6.55% fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes due 2055, 6.625% fixed-to-fixed reset rate junior subordinated notes due 2055, and 5.75% junior subordinated notes due 2079 and with any future unsecured indebtedness that we may incur if the terms of such indebtedness provide that it ranks equally with the notes in right of payment. The notes are effectively subordinated in right of payment to any secured indebtedness we have incurred or may incur (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such secured indebtedness) and to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities and any preferred equity of our subsidiaries.
ECA LNG Phase 1
ECA LNG Phase 1 has a loan agreement with a syndicate of external lenders that was set to mature on December 9, 2025 for an aggregate principal amount of up to $1.3 billion. In July 2025, ECA LNG Phase 1 amended this loan agreement to extend the maturity date to December 30, 2027 and increase the aggregate borrowing capacity to $1.5 billion. The modified loan agreement bears interest at a weighted-average blended rate of 2.29% plus a benchmark interest rate per annum equal to (a) term SOFR based on a tenor comparable to the applicable interest period, plus (b) a credit adjustment spread of 10 bps.
IEnova and TotalEnergies SE have provided guarantees for repayment of the loan of up to $1,226 million and $305 million, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The effective interest rate of the loan is based on the interest payments made to external lenders and guarantee payments made to TotalEnergies SE as a guarantor.
At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $1.2 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, of borrowings from external lenders were outstanding under the loan agreement, with a weighted-average interest rate of 6.39% and 7.29%, respectively. Proceeds from the loan are being used to finance the cost of construction of the ECA LNG Phase 1 project.
Port Arthur LNG I
Port Arthur LNG I has a seven-year term loan facility agreement with a syndicate of lenders that matures on March 20, 2030 for an aggregate principal amount of approximately $6.8 billion. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $2.2 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, of borrowings were outstanding under the loan agreement, with an all-in weighted-average interest rate of 5.46% and 5.33%, respectively. Proceeds from the loan are being used to finance the cost of construction of the PA LNG Phase 1 project.
In January 2025, Port Arthur LNG I issued senior secured notes for an aggregate principal amount of $750 million and received proceeds of $742 million (net of debt issuance costs of $8 million). In April 2025, Port Arthur LNG I issued senior secured notes for an aggregate principal amount of $250 million and received proceeds of $248 million (net of debt issuance costs of $2 million). The notes issued in January 2025 and April 2025 bear interest at the rate of 6.27% and 6.32%, respectively, and mature in December 2042. The net proceeds were used to repay borrowings and accrued interest under the existing Port Arthur LNG I term loan facility.
NOTE 8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We use derivative instruments primarily to manage exposures arising in the normal course of business. Our principal exposures are commodity market risk, benchmark interest rate risk and foreign exchange rate exposures. Our use of derivatives for these risks is integrated into the economic management of our anticipated revenues, anticipated expenses, assets and liabilities. Derivatives may be effective in mitigating these risks (1) that could lead to declines in anticipated revenues or increases in anticipated expenses, or (2) that could cause our asset values to fall or our liabilities to increase. Accordingly, our derivative activity summarized below generally represents an impact that is intended to offset associated revenues, expenses, assets or liabilities that are not included in the tables below.
In certain cases, we apply the normal purchase or sale exception to contracts that otherwise would have been accounted for as derivative instruments and have other commodity contracts that are not derivatives. These contracts are not recorded at fair value and are therefore excluded from the disclosures below.
In all other cases, we record derivatives at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We may have derivatives that are (1) cash flow hedges, (2) fair value hedges, or (3) undesignated. Depending on the applicability of hedge accounting and, for SDG&E and SoCalGas and other operations subject to regulatory accounting, the requirement to pass impacts through to customers, the impact of derivative instruments may be offset in OCI (cash flow hedges), on the balance sheet (regulatory offsets), or recognized in earnings (fair value hedges and undesignated derivatives not subject to rate recovery). We classify cash flows from the (1) principal settlements of cross-currency swaps that hedge exposure related to Mexican peso-denominated debt and amounts related to terminations or early settlements of interest rate swaps as financing activities, (2) principal settlements of interest rate swaps associated with capitalized interest costs incurred to finance capital projects as investing activities, and (3) settlements of other derivative instruments as operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
HEDGE ACCOUNTING
We may designate a derivative as a cash flow hedging instrument if it effectively converts anticipated cash flows associated with revenues or expenses to a fixed dollar amount. We may utilize cash flow hedge accounting for derivative commodity instruments, foreign currency instruments and interest rate instruments. Designating cash flow hedges is dependent on the business context in which the instrument is being used, the effectiveness of the instrument in offsetting the risk of variability of future cash flows of a given revenue or expense item, and other criteria.
ENERGY DERIVATIVES
Our market risk is primarily related to natural gas and electricity price volatility and the specific physical locations where we transact. We use energy derivatives to manage these risks. The use of energy derivatives in our various businesses depends on the particular energy market, and the operating and regulatory environments applicable to the business, as follows:
▪SDG&E and SoCalGas use natural gas derivatives and SDG&E uses electricity derivatives, for the benefit of customers, with the objective of managing price risk and basis risk, and stabilizing and lowering natural gas and electricity costs. These derivatives include fixed-price natural gas and electricity positions, options, and basis risk instruments, which are either exchange-traded or over-the-counter financial instruments, or bilateral physical transactions. This activity is governed by risk management and transacting activity plans limited by company policy. SDG&E’s risk management and transacting activity plans for electricity derivatives are also required to be filed with, and have been approved by, the CPUC. SoCalGas is also subject to certain regulatory requirements and thresholds related to natural gas procurement under the GCIM. Natural gas and electricity derivative activities are recorded as commodity costs that are offset by regulatory account balances and are recovered in rates. Net commodity cost impacts on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations are reflected in Cost of Natural Gas or in Cost of Electric Fuel and Purchased Power.
▪SDG&E is allocated and may purchase CRRs, which serve to reduce the regional electricity price volatility risk that may result from local transmission capacity constraints. Unrealized gains and losses do not impact earnings, as they are offset by regulatory account balances. Realized gains and losses associated with CRRs, which are recoverable in rates, are recorded in Cost of Electric Fuel and Purchased Power on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
▪Sempra Infrastructure may use natural gas and electricity derivatives, as appropriate, in an effort to optimize the earnings of its assets which support the following businesses: LNG, natural gas pipelines and storage, and power generation. Gains and losses associated with these undesignated derivatives are recognized in Energy-Related Businesses Revenues on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
▪Sempra Infrastructure may use natural gas derivatives when supplying feed gas to its LNG liquefaction facilities to support the production of LNG. Gains and losses from these undesignated derivatives are recognized in Energy-Related Businesses Cost of Sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
▪From time to time, our various businesses, including SDG&E and SoCalGas, may use other derivatives to hedge exposures such as GHG allowances.
The following table summarizes net energy derivative volumes.

INTEREST RATE DERIVATIVES
We are exposed to interest rates primarily as a result of our current and expected use of financing. SDG&E and SoCalGas, as well as Sempra and its other subsidiaries and equity method investees, periodically enter into interest rate derivative agreements intended to moderate our exposure to interest rates and to lower our overall costs of borrowing. In addition, we may utilize interest rate swaps, typically designated as cash flow hedges, to lock in interest rates on outstanding debt or in anticipation of future financings.
The following table presents the notional amounts of our interest rate derivatives, excluding those in our equity method investments.

(1) At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, undesignated derivatives accrued interest based on a notional amount of $1,876 and $1,598, respectively.
FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES
From time to time, Sempra Infrastructure and its equity method investees may use foreign currency derivatives to hedge exposures related to cash flows associated with revenues from contracts denominated in Mexican pesos that are indexed to the U.S. dollar. Oncor uses cross-currency swaps designated as fair value hedges intended to offset foreign currency exchange rate risk related to its Euro and Canadian dollar denominated debt.
We are also exposed to exchange rate movements at our Mexican subsidiaries and equity method investees, which have U.S. dollar-denominated cash balances, receivables, payables and debt (monetary assets and liabilities) that give rise to Mexican currency exchange rate movements for Mexican income tax purposes. They also have deferred income tax assets and liabilities denominated in the Mexican peso, which must be translated to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. In addition, monetary assets and liabilities and certain nonmonetary assets and liabilities are adjusted for Mexican inflation for Mexican income tax purposes. We may utilize foreign currency derivatives as a means to manage the risk of exposure to significant fluctuations in our income tax expense and equity earnings from these impacts; however, we generally do not hedge our deferred income tax assets and liabilities or for inflation.
The following table presents the notional amounts of our foreign currency derivatives, excluding those in our equity method investments.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets reflect the offsetting of net derivative positions and cash collateral with the same counterparty when a legal right of offset exists. The following tables provide the fair values of derivative instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, including the amount of cash collateral receivables that were not offset because the cash collateral was in excess of liability positions. We discuss the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities in Note 9.

(1) Equity earnings at Oncor Holdings and our foreign equity method investees are recognized after tax.
For Sempra, we expect that net gains before NCI of $4 million, which are net of income tax expense, that are currently recorded in AOCI (with net gains of $3 million attributable to NCI) related to cash flow hedges will be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months as the hedged items affect earnings. SoCalGas expects that $1 million of losses, net of income tax benefit, that are currently recorded in AOCI related to cash flow hedges will be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months as the hedged items affect earnings. Actual amounts ultimately reclassified into earnings depend on the interest rates and foreign currency rates in effect when derivative contracts mature.
At September 30, 2025, the maximum length of time over which Sempra is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions, excluding those forecasted transactions related to the payment of variable interest on existing financial instruments, is approximately one year.
The following table summarizes the effects of derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

CREDIT RISK RELATED CONTINGENT FEATURES
For Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas, certain of our derivative instruments contain credit limits which vary depending on our credit ratings. Generally, these provisions, if applicable, may reduce our credit limit if a specified credit rating agency reduces our ratings. In certain cases, if our credit ratings were to fall below investment grade, the counterparty to these derivative liability instruments could request immediate payment or demand immediate and ongoing full collateralization.
For Sempra, the total fair value of this group of derivative instruments in a liability position at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is $227 million and $122 million, respectively. For SDG&E, the total fair value of this group of derivative instruments in a liability position is negligible at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. For SoCalGas, the total fair value of this group of derivative instruments in a liability position at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is $78 million and $42 million, respectively. At September 30, 2025, if the credit ratings of Sempra or SoCalGas were reduced below investment grade, $227 million, and $78 million, respectively, of additional assets could be required to be posted as collateral for these derivative contracts.
For Sempra, SDG&E and SoCalGas, some of our derivative contracts contain a provision that would permit the counterparty, in certain circumstances, to request adequate assurance of our performance under the contracts. Such additional assurance, if needed, is not material and is not included in the amounts above.
NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
We discuss the valuation techniques and inputs we use to measure fair value and the definition of the three levels of the fair value hierarchy in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASURES
The tables below set forth our financial assets and liabilities, by level within the fair value hierarchy, that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. We classify financial assets and liabilities in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of fair-valued assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. We have not changed the valuation techniques or types of inputs we use to measure recurring fair value since December 31, 2024.
The determination of fair values, shown in the tables below, incorporates various factors, including but not limited to, the credit standing of the counterparties involved and the impact of credit enhancements (such as cash deposits, letters of credit and priority interests).
Our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis in the tables below include the following:
▪Nuclear decommissioning trusts reflect the assets of SDG&E’s NDT, excluding accounts receivable and accounts payable. A third-party trustee values the trust assets using prices from a pricing service based on a market approach. We validate these prices by comparison to prices from other independent data sources. Securities are valued using quoted prices listed on nationally recognized securities exchanges or based on closing prices reported in the active market in which the identical security is traded (Level 1). Other securities are valued based on yields that are currently available for comparable securities of issuers with similar credit ratings (Level 2).
▪For commodity contracts, interest rate instruments and foreign exchange instruments, we primarily use a market or income approach with market participant assumptions to value these derivatives. Market participant assumptions include those about risk, and the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation techniques. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. We have exchange-traded derivatives that are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for the identical instruments (Level 1). We also may have other commodity derivatives that are valued using industry standard models that consider quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, volatility factors, and other relevant economic measures (Level 2). Level 3 recurring items relate to CRRs at SDG&E, as we discuss below in “Level 3 Information – SDG&E.” We further discuss derivative assets and liabilities in Note 8.
▪Rabbi Trust investments include short-term investments that consist of money market and mutual funds that we value using a market approach based on closing prices reported in the active market in which the identical security is traded (Level 1).
▪As we discuss in Note 13, in July 2020, Sempra entered into a Support Agreement for the benefit of CFIN. We measure the Support Agreement, which includes a guarantee obligation, a put option and a call option, net of related guarantee fees, at fair value on a recurring basis. We use a discounted cash flow model to value the Support Agreement, net of related guarantee fees. Because some of the inputs that are significant to the valuation are less observable, the Support Agreement is classified as Level 3, as we describe below in “Level 3 Information – Other Sempra.”

Change in unrealized gains (losses) relating to instruments still held at September 30 | $ | (1) | | | $ | (1) | |
(1) Excludes the effect of the contractual ability to settle contracts under master netting agreements and cash collateral.
Realized gains and losses associated with CRRs, which are recoverable in rates, are recorded in Cost of Electric Fuel and Purchased Power on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Because unrealized gains and losses are recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities, they do not affect earnings. Inputs used to determine the fair value of CRRs are reviewed and compared with market conditions to determine reasonableness.
CRRs are recorded at fair value based almost entirely on the most current auction prices published by the California ISO, an objective source. Annual auction prices are published once a year, typically in the middle of November, and are the basis for valuing CRRs settling in the following year. For the CRRs settling from January 1 to December 31, the auction price inputs, at a given location, were in the following ranges for the years indicated below:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| CONGESTION REVENUE RIGHTS AUCTION PRICE INPUTS |
|
| Settlement year | Price per MWh | | Median price per MWh |
| 2025 | $ | (7.38) | | to | $ | 15.54 | | | $ | 0.01 | |
| 2024 | (3.69) | | to | 9.55 | | | (0.44) | |
The impact associated with discounting is not significant. Because these auction prices are a less observable input, these instruments are classified as Level 3. The fair value of these instruments is derived from auction price differences between two locations. Positive values between two locations represent expected future reductions in congestion costs, whereas negative values between two locations represent expected future charges. Valuation of our CRRs is sensitive to a change in auction price. If auction prices at one location increase (decrease) relative to another location, this could result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. We summarize CRR volumes in Note 8.
Other Sempra
The table below sets forth reconciliations of changes in the fair value of Sempra’s Support Agreement for the benefit of CFIN classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

(1) Net gains are included in Interest Income and net losses are included in Interest Expense on Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(2) Includes $8 in Other Current Assets and $31 in Other Long-Term Assets at September 30, 2025 on Sempra's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The fair value of the Support Agreement, net of related guarantee fees, is based on a discounted cash flow model using a probability of default and survival methodology. Our estimate of fair value considers inputs such as third-party default rates, credit ratings, recovery rates, and risk-adjusted discount rates, which may be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. Because CFIN’s credit rating and related default and survival rates are unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation, the Support Agreement, net of related guarantee fees, is classified as Level 3. We assigned CFIN an internally developed credit rating of A2 and A3 at September 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively, and relied on default rate data published by Moody’s to assign a probability of default. A hypothetical change in the credit rating up or down one notch would not result in a significant change in the fair value of the Support Agreement.

The fair values of certain of our financial instruments (cash, current and noncurrent accounts receivable, amounts due to/from unconsolidated affiliates with original maturities of less than 90 days, dividends and accounts payable due in one year or less, short-term debt and customer deposits) approximate their carrying amounts because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Investments in life insurance contracts that we hold in support of our Supplemental Executive Retirement, Cash Balance Restoration and Deferred Compensation Plans are carried at cash surrender values, which represent the amount of cash that could be realized under the contracts. The following table provides the carrying amounts and fair values of certain other financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 10. CONTINGENTLY REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST
SEMPRA INFRASTRUCTURE
Investor Equity Subscription
In September 2025, PA2 JVCo issued 49.9% of its equity interests to Blackstone for $3.4 billion in cash at closing and a commitment to fund an additional $3.6 billion of capital contributions on a pre-determined funding schedule whereby Blackstone’s capital contributions are scheduled prior to SI Partners capital contributions. SI Partners holds the remaining 50.1% of equity interests in PA2 JVCo, and has committed to fund up to $7.8 billion to PA2 JVCo to support its share of the budgeted PA LNG Phase 2 project construction costs. SI Partners will continue to consolidate PA2 JVCo and direct the activities related to the construction and future operation and maintenance of the PA LNG Phase 2 project. Following the closing, Sempra, Blackstone, KKR Pinnacle and ADIA each hold a 35.1%, 49.9%, 10% and 5% ownership interest, respectively, in the PA LNG Phase 2 project.
Upon closing the equity subscription, we received proceeds of $106 million and recorded an increase of $76 million in CRNCI, an increase of $9 million in NCI, and an increase of $16 million, net of $5 million in income tax expense, in Sempra’s shareholders’ equity. Additionally at closing, Blackstone paid its initial contribution and we received $3,166 million in cash, net of $168 million in transaction costs, and recorded an increase of $3,166 million in CRNCI.
Distributions and Earnings Allocation
Distributions from PA2 JVCo will be made quarterly from available cash to the members in accordance with their distribution percentages, which initially allocates 40.1% and 59.9% of distributions to SI Partners and Blackstone, respectively, until December 31, 2070, after which distributions convert to 50.1% and 49.9% to SI Partners and Blackstone, respectively. Blackstone is entitled to certain adjustments to its share of distributions upon the occurrence of certain events, including termination of LNG offtake contracts that have not been replaced within a specified timeframe, extended incidents of operational underperformance, or material breach of certain affiliate contracts. In the event of liquidation, distributions will continue to follow this allocation until Blackstone has achieved a contractually specified return on its contributed capital, after which such proceeds from liquidation are distributed to SI Partners and Blackstone proportionate to their ownership interest.
Earnings are generally allocated 40.1% to SI Partners and 59.9% to Blackstone, subject to adjustments to Blackstone’s share of distributions discussed above.
Call Rights and Redemption Features
Under the PA2 JVCo LLCA, SI Partners has the right to appoint up to eight managers and Blackstone has the right to appoint up to two managers to PA2 JVCo’s board of managers, with voting power proportionate to their ownership interest. Blackstone has customary minority protections, including consent rights over significant actions such as amendments to the PA2 JVCo LLCA, incurrence of material indebtedness, and changes to the project budget.
Call Options. The PA2 JVCo LLCA provides SI Partners with several call rights to purchase Blackstone’s equity interest under certain conditions or upon the occurrence of certain contingent events, including if Blackstone fails to fund required capital contributions or becomes subject to specific disqualifying events, and during certain defined time periods. Blackstone has a reciprocal call right if SI Partners becomes subject to similar disqualifying events, generally at fair market value in a bankruptcy scenario or 75% of fair market value for other disqualifying events.
Contingent Redemption. Blackstone’s equity interest represents an NCI in PA2 JVCo and is classified as contingently redeemable because Blackstone has certain redemption and exit rights that are outside the control of SI Partners. These rights include, among others, the ability to require redemption upon (i) failure to complete construction by a specified date; (ii) sustained priority distributions to Blackstone above specified thresholds and for specified time periods as a result of extended periods of operational underperformance exceeding certain thresholds, termination of LNG offtake contracts that have not been replaced within a specified timeframe, or material breach of certain affiliate contracts; or (iii) the occurrence of certain monetization events, including a third-party sale of PA2 JVCo.
Because these redemption features are contingent on events not solely within SI Partners’ control, we present Blackstone’s equity interest as a CRNCI, which appears between liabilities and equity in the mezzanine section of Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. We initially recorded the CRNCI at the amount for which Blackstone has a claim on the underlying net assets in liquidation at book value. At September 30, 2025, the CRNCI is not currently redeemable, nor is it probable that it will become redeemable because the forecasted completion of the PA LNG Phase 2 project is highly unlikely to occur beyond the contractually specified date in which Blackstone’s ownership interest becomes redeemable; therefore, we did not accrete the CRNCI to its redemption value. If it becomes probable that the CRNCI will become redeemable, we will make a policy election at that time regarding our accounting method of accreting the CRNCI to its redemption value.
Either party may propose a third-party sale or other monetization event. Proceeds from such a sale or monetization event are generally allocated 40.1% to SI Partners and 59.9% to Blackstone until Blackstone achieves a contractually specified return on its contributed capital, and thereafter 90% to SI Partners and 10% to Blackstone.
Allocation of Interests
Upon reaching FID in September 2025, Port Arthur LNG II paid $1.9 billion to Port Arthur LNG I for a 50% ownership interest in shared common facilities located at the site of the natural gas liquefaction projects. As a result, claim on the underlying common facilities in liquidation is split equally between the PA LNG Phase 1 project and the PA LNG Phase 2 project. However, although the ultimate cost of the common facilities will be split equally between the PA LNG Phase 1 project and the PA LNG Phase 2 project upon completion of the PA LNG Phase 2 project, payments for construction costs associated with the common facilities may be made by one project on behalf of both, necessitating an allocation of the appropriate claim on the underlying common facilities between the PA LNG Phase 1 project and the PA LNG Phase 2 project.
Because ownership interests in SI Partners, its subsidiaries and their projects differ by percentage and consolidation level, the allocation of claims on the underlying transactions must be further allocated among the respective owners. Such transactions also include the equity subscription, contributions provided by owners at different times based on a pre-determined funding schedule, and transaction costs, which include $122 million paid to Blackstone for fees and reimbursement of certain transaction expenses and $46 million paid to third parties. To effect the allocation of interests, in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded a decrease in CRNCI of $1,309 million, an increase in NCI of $455 million and an increase in Sempra’s shareholders’ equity of $635 million, net of $219 million in income tax expense.
NOTE 11. SEMPRA – EQUITY AND EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK
On September 10, 2025, we provided notice of the redemption of all 900,000 issued and outstanding shares of our series C preferred stock for a redemption price in cash of $1,000 per share. Because this notice made redemption unconditional and certain to occur, we reclassified $900 million from Preferred Stock in equity to Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock in current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, and the formerly outstanding 900,000 shares of series C preferred stock have been returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares. After this reclassification, we recognized $11 million of capitalized underwriting discount and equity issuance costs in Preferred Deemed Dividends and $4 million of accrued dividends through October 14, 2025 in Interest Expense on our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
On October 15, 2025, we effected and paid $900 million for the redemption of all 900,000 shares of our series C preferred stock using proceeds received from our August 2025 issuance of junior subordinated notes and short-term debt, which we discuss in Note 7.
COMMON STOCK OFFERINGS
ATM Program
In November 2024, we established an ATM program providing for the offer and sale of shares of Sempra common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $3.0 billion through agents acting as our sales agents or as forward sellers or directly to the agents as principals. The shares may be offered and sold in amounts and at times to be determined by us from time to time. The agents will be entitled to a commission that will not exceed 1.0% of the gross sales price of all shares sold through it as agent pursuant to the Sales Agreement.
Under the ATM program, we may enter into separate forward sale agreements with affiliates of the agents as forward purchasers. We expect to fully physically settle each forward sale agreement. However, we will generally have the right, subject to certain exceptions, to elect to cash settle or net share settle all or any portion of our obligations under any such forward sale agreement. With respect to forward sale agreements with any forward purchaser, we expect that such forward purchaser (or its affiliate) will attempt to borrow from third parties and sell, through the relevant agent acting as sales agent for such forward purchaser, shares of our common stock to hedge such forward purchaser’s exposure under such forward sale agreement. We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of shares borrowed by a forward purchaser (or its affiliate) and sold through a forward seller. The forward seller will receive a commission, in the form of a reduction to the initial forward price under the related forward sale agreement, at a mutually agreed rate that will not exceed (subject to certain exceptions) 1.0% of the volume-weighted average of the gross sales price per share of all of the borrowed shares of Sempra common stock sold through such forward seller.
We intend to use a substantial portion of the net proceeds we receive from the issuance and sale by us of any shares of our common stock to or through the agents and any net proceeds we receive through the settlement of any forward sale agreements with the forward purchasers for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including to partly finance our long-term capital plan and to repay outstanding commercial paper and potentially other indebtedness. At September 30, 2025, approximately $2.6 billion of common stock remained available for sale under the ATM program, which reflects the forward sale agreements that we describe below.
Forward Sale Agreements
Since establishing the ATM program, an aggregate of 4,996,591 shares have been sold under the forward sale agreements described below with an average initial forward price of $83.175. Such average initial forward price is weighted to take into account the number of shares sold under each forward sale agreement.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, we entered into a forward sale agreement under the ATM program with Bank of America, N.A. as forward purchaser. From time to time during the quarter at our instruction, the forward purchaser borrowed, and an affiliate of the forward purchaser sold, 2,909,274 shares of Sempra common stock under this agreement. At the initial forward price of $92.1546 per share, the proceeds from this forward sale agreement if we elect full physical settlement would be approximately $268 million (net of sales commissions of approximately $2.4 million, but before deducting equity issuance costs, and subject to certain adjustments pursuant to the forward sale agreements). At September 30, 2025, a total of 2,909,274 shares of Sempra common stock remain subject to future settlement under this forward sale agreement, which may be settled on one or more dates specified by us no later than June 30, 2026.
In the first quarter of 2025, we entered into a forward sale agreement under the ATM program with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as forward purchaser. From time to time during the quarter at our instruction, the forward purchaser borrowed, and an affiliate of the forward purchaser sold, 2,087,317 shares of Sempra common stock under this agreement. At the initial forward price of $70.6593 per share, the proceeds from this forward sale agreement if we elect full physical settlement would be approximately $147 million (net of sales commissions of approximately $1.3 million, but before deducting equity issuance costs, and subject to certain adjustments pursuant to the forward sale agreements). At September 30, 2025, a total of 2,087,317 shares of Sempra common stock remain subject to future settlement under this forward sale agreement, which may be settled on one or more dates specified by us no later than March 31, 2027.
The shares offered pursuant to the forward sale agreements were borrowed by the applicable forward purchaser and therefore were not newly issued shares. We did not initially receive any proceeds from the sale of shares pursuant to the forward sale agreements. Although we may settle the forward sale agreements entirely by the physical delivery of shares of our common stock in exchange for cash proceeds, we may, subject to certain conditions, elect cash settlement or net share settlement for all or a portion of our obligations under the forward sale agreements. The forward sale agreements are also subject to acceleration by the applicable forward purchaser upon the occurrence of certain events.
COMMON STOCK REPURCHASES
In the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we withheld 684,447 shares for $58 million and 565,571 shares for $41 million, respectively, of our common stock that would otherwise be issued to long-term incentive plan participants who do not elect otherwise upon the vesting of RSUs and exercise of stock options in an amount sufficient to satisfy minimum statutory tax withholding requirements. Such share withholding is considered a share repurchase for accounting purposes.
NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
Ownership interests in a consolidated entity that are held by unconsolidated owners are accounted for and reported as NCI.
The following table summarizes net income attributable to Sempra and transfers (to) from NCI, which shows the effects of changes in Sempra’s ownership interest in its subsidiaries on Sempra’s shareholders’ equity.

SI Partners Subsidiaries
Both SI Partners and ConocoPhillips have provided guarantees relating to their respective affiliate’s commitment to make its pro rata equity share of capital contributions to fund 110% of the development budget of the PA LNG Phase 1 project, in an aggregate amount of up to $9.0 billion. SI Partners’ guarantee covers 70% of this amount plus enforcement costs of its guarantee. As of September 30, 2025, an aggregate amount of $2.7 billion has been paid by SI Partners’ subsidiary in satisfaction of its commitment to fund its portion of the development budget of the PA LNG Phase 1 project.
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing earnings attributable to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution of common stock equivalent shares that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

(1) Includes 492 and 615 fully vested RSUs held in our Deferred Compensation Plan for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 502 and 616 of such RSUs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These fully vested RSUs are included in weighted-average common shares outstanding for basic EPS because there are no conditions under which the corresponding shares will not be issued.
(2) Due to market fluctuations of both Sempra common stock and the comparative indices used to determine the vesting percentage of our total shareholder return performance-based RSUs, which we discuss in Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report, dilutive RSUs may vary widely from period-to-period.
The potentially dilutive impact from stock options and RSUs is calculated under the treasury stock method. Under this method, proceeds based on the exercise price and unearned compensation are assumed to be used to repurchase shares on the open market at the average market price for the period, reducing the number of potential new shares to be issued and sometimes causing an antidilutive effect. The computation of diluted EPS for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 excludes 331,462 and 743,454 potentially dilutive shares, respectively, and the computation of diluted EPS for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2024 excludes 450,243 and 996,966 potentially dilutive shares, respectively, because to include them would be antidilutive for the period. However, these shares could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future.
The potentially dilutive impact from the forward sale of our common stock pursuant to the forward sale agreements that we discuss above is reflected in our diluted EPS calculation using the treasury stock method. We anticipate there will be a dilutive effect on our EPS when the average market price of our common stock shares is above the applicable adjusted forward price, subject to increase or decrease based on the overnight bank funding rate, less a spread, and subject to decrease by amounts related to expected dividends on shares of our common stock during the term of the forward sale agreements. Additionally, if we decide to physically settle or net share settle the forward sale agreements, delivery of our shares to the forward purchasers on any such physical settlement or net share settlement of the forward sale agreements would result in dilution to our EPS.
Pursuant to Sempra’s share-based compensation plans, the Compensation and Talent Development Committee of Sempra’s board of directors granted 303,614 nonqualified stock options, 628,413 performance-based RSUs and 260,012 service-based RSUs in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily in January.
We discuss share-based compensation plans and related awards and the terms and conditions of Sempra’s equity securities further in Notes 11, 12 and 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
NOTE 12. SAN ONOFRE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION
We provide below updates to ongoing matters related to SONGS, a nuclear generating facility near San Clemente, California that permanently ceased operations in June 2013, and in which SDG&E has a 20% ownership interest. We discuss SONGS further in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
NUCLEAR DECOMMISSIONING AND FUNDING
As a result of Edison’s decision to permanently retire SONGS Units 2 and 3, Edison began the decommissioning phase of the plant. Major decommissioning work began in 2020. We expect the majority of the decommissioning work to be completed around 2030. Decommissioning of Unit 1, removed from service in 1992, is largely complete. The remaining work for Unit 1 will be completed once Units 2 and 3 are dismantled and the spent fuel is removed from the site. The spent fuel is currently being stored on-site, until the DOE identifies an independent spent fuel storage installation and puts in place a program for the fuel’s disposal. SDG&E is responsible for approximately 20% of the total decommissioning cost.
In accordance with state and federal requirements and regulations, SDG&E has assets held in the NDT to fund its share of decommissioning costs for SONGS Units 1, 2 and 3. Amounts that were collected in rates for SONGS’ decommissioning are invested in the NDT, which is comprised of externally managed trust funds. Amounts held by the NDT are invested in accordance with CPUC regulations. SDG&E classifies debt and equity securities held in the NDT as available-for-sale. The NDT assets are presented on the Sempra and SDG&E Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with the offsetting credits recorded in noncurrent Regulatory Liabilities.
Except for the use of funds for the planning of decommissioning activities or NDT administrative costs, CPUC approval is required for SDG&E to access the NDT assets to fund SONGS decommissioning costs for Units 2 and 3. In January 2025, the CPUC granted SDG&E authorization to access NDT funds of up to $66 million for forecasted 2025 costs.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION
The present value of SDG&E’s ARO related to decommissioning costs for all three SONGS units is $448 million at September 30, 2025 and is based on a cost study prepared in 2024, which is pending CPUC approval. SDG&E expects to receive an FD in the first half of 2026.
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We accrue losses for a legal proceeding when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. However, the uncertainties inherent in legal proceedings make it difficult to reasonably estimate the costs and effects of resolving these matters. Accordingly, actual costs incurred may differ materially from amounts accrued, may exceed, and in some cases have exceeded, applicable insurance coverage and could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects. Unless otherwise indicated, we are unable to reasonably estimate possible losses or a range of losses in excess of any amounts accrued.
At September 30, 2025, loss contingency accruals for legal matters that are probable and estimable are $43 million for Sempra, including $28 million for SoCalGas.
SDG&E
City of San Diego Franchise Agreements
In 2021, two lawsuits were filed in the California Superior Court challenging various aspects of the natural gas and electric franchise agreements granted by the City of San Diego to SDG&E. Both lawsuits ultimately sought to void the franchise agreements.
Pending. In one of the cases, the court ruled in favor of SDG&E and the City of San Diego, upholding all terms of the franchise agreements, except for the two-thirds City Council vote requirement for termination if the City decides to terminate under certain circumstances. Under the court’s ruling, the City can instead terminate on a majority vote, so long as it satisfies repayment provisions under the franchise agreements. Both sides have appealed the ruling.
Resolved. In the second case, judgment was granted in favor of SDG&E and the City of San Diego. The plaintiff’s latest appeal was to the California Supreme Court and was denied, definitively resolving this matter.
SoCalGas
Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Storage Facility Gas Leak
From October 23, 2015 through February 11, 2016, SoCalGas experienced a natural gas leak from one of the injection-and-withdrawal wells, SS25, at its Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility in Los Angeles County.
In 2022, SoCalGas paid $1.79 billion under a settlement agreement that resolved the lawsuits of over 99% of the approximately 36,000 individual plaintiffs with lawsuits then-pending against SoCalGas and Sempra related to the Leak. As of October 31, 2025, there are three outstanding plaintiffs who have not agreed to a settlement in principle.

Energía Costa Azul
We describe below certain land disputes and permit challenges affecting our ECA Regas Facility. Certain of these land disputes involve land on which portions of the ECA LNG liquefaction facilities under construction and in development are expected to be situated or on which portions of the ECA Regas Facility that would be necessary for the operation of such ECA LNG liquefaction facilities are situated. One or more unfavorable conclusions on these disputes or challenges could materially adversely affect our existing natural gas regasification operations and proposed natural gas liquefaction projects at the site of the ECA Regas Facility and have a material adverse effect on Sempra’s business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows and/or prospects.
Land Disputes.
▪Pending - Sempra Infrastructure has been engaged in a long-running land dispute with a claimant relating to property adjacent to its ECA Regas Facility that allegedly overlaps with land owned by the ECA Regas Facility (the facility, however, is not situated on the land that is the subject of this dispute). The claimant to the adjacent property filed suit to reinitiate an administrative procedure at SEDATU to obtain the property title for the disputed property that had previously been issued in a ruling by the federal Agrarian Court and subsequently reversed by a federal court in Mexico. In April 2021, the proceeding in the Agrarian Court concluded with the court ordering that the administrative procedure be restarted. The administrative procedure at SEDATU may continue if SEDATU decides to reopen the matter.
▪Resolved - In addition, a plaintiff filed a claim in the federal Agrarian Court that seeks to annul the property title for a portion of the land on which the ECA Regas Facility is situated and to obtain possession of a different parcel that allegedly overlaps with the site of the ECA Regas Facility. The proceeding, which seeks an order that SEDATU annul the ECA Regas Facility’s competing property title, was initiated in 2006 and, in July 2021, a decision was issued in favor of the ECA Regas Facility. The plaintiff appealed and, in February 2022, the appellate court confirmed the ruling in favor of the ECA Regas Facility and dismissed the appeal. The plaintiff filed a federal appeal against the appellate court ruling. In August 2024, the Federal Collegiate Circuit Court ruled in favor of the ECA Regas Facility. The plaintiff filed an appeal and, in May 2025, the Mexican Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, definitively resolving this matter.
Environmental and Social Impact Permits. Several administrative challenges are pending before Mexico’s Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resources (the Mexican environmental protection agency) and Federal Tax and Administrative Courts, seeking revocation of the environmental impact authorization issued to the ECA Regas Facility in 2003. These cases generally allege that the conditions and mitigation measures in the environmental impact authorization are inadequate and challenge findings that the activities of the terminal are consistent with regional development guidelines.
In 2018 and 2021, three related claimants filed separate challenges in the federal district court in Ensenada, Baja California seeking revocation of the environmental and social impact permits issued by each of ASEA and SENER to ECA LNG authorizing natural gas liquefaction activities at the ECA Regas Facility, as follows:
▪Pending - In the first case, the court issued a provisional injunction against the permits in September 2018. In December 2018, ASEA approved modifications to the environmental permit that facilitate the development of the proposed natural gas liquefaction facility in two phases. In May 2019, the court canceled the provisional injunction. The claimant appealed the court’s decision to cancel the injunction to the federal appellate court but was not successful. The lower court’s ruling was favorable to the ECA Regas Facility, as the court determined that no harm has been caused to the plaintiff and dismissed the lawsuit. The claimant appealed and petitioned the Mexican Supreme Court to resolve the appeal. The Mexican Supreme Court denied the petition to hear the case, thereby leaving the appeal to be resolved by a federal appellate court.
▪Pending - In the second case, the initial request for a provisional injunction against the permits was denied. That decision was reversed on appeal in January 2020, resulting in the issuance of a new injunction against the permits that were issued by ASEA and SENER. This injunction has uncertain application absent clarification by the court. The claimants petitioned the court to rule that construction of natural gas liquefaction facilities violated the injunction and, in February 2022, the court ruled in favor of the ECA Regas Facility, holding that the natural gas liquefaction construction activities did not violate the injunction. The claimants appealed this ruling to the federal appellate court but were not successful. The lower court’s ruling was favorable to the ECA Regas Facility, as the court determined that no harm has been caused to the plaintiffs and dismissed the lawsuit. The claimants appealed and petitioned the Mexican Supreme Court to resolve the appeal. The Mexican Supreme Court denied the petition to hear the case, thereby leaving the appeal to be resolved by a federal appellate court.
▪Pending - In the third case, a group of residents filed an administrative appeal in June 2021 against various federal and state authorities alleging deficiencies in the public consultation process for the issuance of the permits. The request for an administrative appeal was denied. The claimants appealed this ruling via a constitutional challenge (an amparo trial) but were not successful. The lower court’s ruling was favorable to the ECA Regas Facility, as the court determined that no harm has been caused to the plaintiffs and dismissed the lawsuit. The claimants appealed the rulings via the Second Federal Collegiate Court, and the appeal is yet to be resolved.
Port Arthur LNG I
TCEQ Permit - Pending. The PA LNG Phase 1 project holds two Clean Air Act, Prevention of Significant Deterioration permits issued by the TCEQ, which we refer to as the “2016 Permit” and the “2022 Permit.” The 2022 Permit also governs emissions for the PA LNG Phase 2 project. In November 2023, a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit issued a decision to vacate and remand the 2022 Permit to the TCEQ for additional explanation of the agency’s permit decision. In February 2024, the court withdrew its opinion and referred the case to the Supreme Court of Texas to resolve the question of the appropriate standard to be applied by the TCEQ. In February 2025, the Supreme Court of Texas adopted Port Arthur LNG I’s interpretation of the standard. In August 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit applied the standard adopted by the Supreme Court of Texas and denied the petitioner’s argument under the case, resulting in the continued effectiveness of the 2022 Permit. The petitioners have until November 10, 2025 to file a petition for writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court; however, the Supreme Court does not have to grant review. The 2022 Permit is effective during the pending litigation. The 2016 Permit was not the subject of, and is unaffected by, the pending litigation of the 2022 Permit. Construction of the PA LNG Phase 1 project is proceeding uninterrupted under existing permits, and we do not currently anticipate the pending litigation to materially impact the PA LNG Phase 1 project cost, schedule or expected commercial operations at this stage.
Construction Incident - Pending. In April 2025, an incident occurred at the site of the PA LNG Phase 1 project that resulted in the deaths of three Bechtel employees and injuries to two Bechtel employees.
We have an EPC contract with Bechtel to construct the PA LNG Phase 1 project. Under the EPC contract, Bechtel has full custody and control of the site during the construction period. OSHA opened inspections with respect to Bechtel and Sempra Infrastructure, but has released the site. Bechtel is continuing construction of the PA LNG Phase 1 project while the cause of the incident remains under investigation.
As of October 31, 2025, there are two pending lawsuits filed by 17 plaintiffs in the 172nd Judicial District Court in Jefferson County, Texas and the 295th Judicial District Court in Harris County, Texas. A complaint filed in the 60th Judicial District Court in Jefferson County, Texas was dismissed without prejudice following the plaintiff’s intervention in the proceeding in the 172nd Judicial District Court in Jefferson County, Texas. The complaints collectively name as defendants Port Arthur LNG I, SI Partners, Sempra and/or other Sempra affiliates, Bechtel and/or Bechtel Corporation, and ConocoPhillips. In the lawsuits, plaintiffs assert negligence and gross negligence and additional causes of action for wrongful death, survival and bystander claims. Plaintiffs seek compensatory and punitive damages, lost wages and attorneys’ fees. The litigation is stayed pending a request to transfer the pending cases to a multidistrict litigation pretrial court.
Bechtel is providing indemnity pursuant to the terms of Port Arthur LNG I’s EPC contract.
Litigation Related to Regulatory and Other Actions by the Mexican Government
Amendments to Mexico’s Electricity Industry Law. In March 2021, the Mexican government published a decree with amendments to the LIE that included public policy changes, including establishing priority of dispatch for CFE plants over privately owned ones and allowing the CNE to revoke self-supply permits granted under the former electricity law under certain circumstances. In 2024, the Mexican government adopted changes to the Mexican Constitution to reinforce state control over strategic sectors by granting a central role to government entities like the CFE and PEMEX. Following these constitutional reforms, the Mexican government adopted the ESL in March 2025, which repealed the LIE.
Prior to the enactment of the ESL, Sempra Infrastructure had initiated three amparo lawsuits challenging the 2021 amendments to the LIE. The first lawsuit addressed the provision allowing revocation of self-supply permits, which lawsuit the Second Collegiate Court definitively dismissed in July 2024. The second lawsuit impacted generation permits for certain Sempra Infrastructure facilities, which lawsuit the Second Chamber of the Mexican Supreme Court definitively dismissed in February 2025. The third lawsuit relating to the 2021 amendments to the LIE impacts Sempra Infrastructure’s power marketing business; this lawsuit remains pending, but Sempra Infrastructure believes it is now moot given the repeal of the LIE.
Ordinary Course Litigation
We are also defendants in ordinary routine litigation incidental to our businesses, including personal injury, employment litigation, product liability, property damage and other claims. Juries have demonstrated an increasing willingness to grant large awards, including punitive damages, in these types of cases.
LEASES
We discuss leases further in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Lessee Accounting
We have operating and finance leases for real and personal property (including office space, land, fleet vehicles, aircraft, tugboats, machinery and equipment, warehouses and other operational facilities) and PPAs with renewable energy, energy storage and peaker plant facilities.
SDG&E has two PPAs that commenced in July 2025 and September 2025 and expire in June 2040 and August 2040, respectively, and recorded right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of $291 million. Future minimum lease payments are $12 million in 2025, and $29 million in each of 2026 through 2029 and $303 million thereafter.
Leases That Have Not Yet Commenced
SDG&E previously entered into two PPAs, of which SDG&E expects one will commence in 2027 and one will commence in 2028. SDG&E expects the future minimum lease payments to be $4 million in 2028, $5 million in 2029 and $71 million thereafter (through expiration in 2043).
SoCalGas previously entered into a lease agreement for a new headquarters office space in Los Angeles that it expects will commence in 2026. In July 2025, the lease agreement was amended to increase the square footage. At September 30, 2025, SoCalGas expects future minimum lease payments to decrease by $3 million in 2028 and increase by $3 million in 2029 and $38 million thereafter (through expiration in 2041) compared to December 31, 2024.
Lessor Accounting
Sempra Infrastructure is a lessor for certain of its natural gas and ethane pipelines, compressor stations, liquid petroleum gas storage facilities, a rail facility and refined products terminals, which we account for as operating or sales-type leases.
We provide information below for leases for which we are the lessor.

CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS
We discuss below significant changes in the first nine months of 2025 to contractual commitments discussed in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report.
Natural Gas Contract
Sempra Infrastructure
Sempra Infrastructure entered into a 20-year transportation services agreement to secure natural gas transportation capacity, with an option to extend the term, resulting in a commitment for fixed costs of approximately $180 million per year during the term of the agreement.
LNG Purchase Agreement
ECA Regas Facility
Sempra Infrastructure has an SPA for the supply of LNG to the ECA Regas Facility. The commitment amount is calculated using a predetermined formula based on estimated forward prices of the index applicable from 2025 through 2029. Although this agreement specifies a number of cargoes to be delivered, under its terms, the supplier may divert certain cargoes, which would reduce amounts paid under the agreement by Sempra Infrastructure. At September 30, 2025, we expect the commitment amount to decrease by $321 million in 2025, $74 million in 2026, $53 million in 2027, $64 million in 2028, and $38 million in 2029 compared to December 31, 2024, reflecting changes in estimated forward prices since December 31, 2024 and actual transactions for the first nine months of 2025. These LNG commitment amounts are based on the assumption that all LNG cargoes under the agreement are delivered, less those already confirmed to be diverted as of September 30, 2025. Actual LNG purchases in the current and prior years have been significantly lower than the maximum amount provided under the agreement due to the supplier electing to divert cargoes as allowed by the agreement.
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
We disclose any proceeding under environmental laws to which a government authority is a party when the potential monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, exceed the lesser of $1 million or 1% of current assets, which is $317 million for Sempra, $17 million for SDG&E and $15 million for SoCalGas at September 30, 2025.
SEMPRA – GUARANTEES
Sempra Promissory Note for SDSRA Distribution
Cameron LNG JV’s debt agreements require Cameron LNG JV to maintain the SDSRA, which is an additional reserve account beyond the Senior Debt Service Accrual Account, where funds accumulate from operations to satisfy senior debt obligations due and payable on the next payment date. Both accounts can be funded with cash or authorized investments. In June 2021, Sempra Infrastructure received a distribution of $165 million based on its proportionate share of the SDSRA, for which Sempra provided a promissory note and letters of credit to secure a proportionate share of Cameron LNG JV’s obligation to fund the SDSRA. Sempra’s maximum exposure to loss is replenishment of the amount withdrawn by Sempra Infrastructure from the SDSRA, or $165 million. We recorded a guarantee liability of $22 million in June 2021, with an associated carrying value of $17 million at September 30, 2025, for the fair value of the promissory note, which is being reduced over the duration of the guarantee through Sempra Infrastructure’s investment in Cameron LNG JV. The guarantee will terminate upon full repayment of Cameron LNG JV’s debt, scheduled to occur in 2039, or replenishment of the amount withdrawn by Sempra Infrastructure from the SDSRA.
This guarantee will remain with Sempra after the sale of a portion of our equity interest in SI Partners is complete, which we discuss in Note 6.
Sempra Support Agreement for CFIN
In July 2020, CFIN entered into a financing arrangement with Cameron LNG JV’s four project owners and received aggregate proceeds of $1.5 billion from two project owners and from external lenders on behalf of the other two project owners (collectively, the affiliate loans), based on their proportionate ownership interest in Cameron LNG JV. CFIN used the proceeds from the affiliate loans to provide a loan to Cameron LNG JV. The affiliate loans mature in 2039. Principal and interest are paid from Cameron LNG JV’s project cash flows from its three-train natural gas liquefaction facility. Cameron LNG JV used the proceeds from its loan to return equity to its project owners.
Sempra Infrastructure’s $753 million proportionate share of the affiliate loans, based on SI Partners’ 50.2% ownership interest in Cameron LNG JV, was funded by external lenders comprised of a syndicate of banks (the bank debt) to whom Sempra has provided a guarantee pursuant to a Support Agreement under which:
▪Sempra has severally guaranteed repayment of the bank debt plus accrued and unpaid interest if CFIN fails to pay the external lenders;
▪the external lenders may exercise an option to put the bank debt to Sempra Infrastructure upon the occurrence of certain events, including a failure by CFIN to meet its payment obligations under the bank debt;
▪on March 28, 2028, March 28, 2030 and March 28, 2035, the agent for the external lenders, on behalf of such external lenders, is obligated to put all of the then outstanding bank debt to Sempra Infrastructure, except to the extent any external lender elects not to participate in the put three months prior to the applicable put exercise date;
▪Sempra Infrastructure also has a right to call the bank debt back from, or to refinance the bank debt with, the external lenders at any time; and
▪the Support Agreement will terminate upon full repayment of the bank debt, including repayment following an event in which the bank debt is put to Sempra Infrastructure.
In exchange for this guarantee, the external lenders pay a guarantee fee that is based on the credit rating of Sempra’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt rating, which guarantee fee Sempra Infrastructure recognizes as interest income as earned. Sempra’s maximum exposure to loss is the bank debt plus any accrued and unpaid interest and related fees, subject to a liability cap of 130% of the bank debt, or $979 million. We measure the Support Agreement at fair value, net of related guarantee fees, on a recurring basis (see Note 9). At September 30, 2025, the fair value of the Support Agreement is $39 million, of which $8 million is included in Other Current Assets and $31 million is included in Other Long-Term Assets on Sempra’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
This guarantee will remain with Sempra after the sale of a portion of our equity interest in SI Partners is complete, which we discuss in Note 6.
SI Partners Credit Support Agreement
In February 2025, SI Partners entered into a 15-month credit support agreement with a third-party financial institution related to a customer’s secured borrowing for repayment of its past due account balance owed to SI Partners. At September 30, 2025, SI Partners’ maximum exposure to loss under this off-balance sheet arrangement is $72 million.
This guarantee, if not yet terminated, will remain with SI Partners after the sale of a portion of our equity interest in SI Partners is complete, which we discuss in Note 6.
NOTE 14. SEGMENT INFORMATION
SEMPRA
Sempra is a California-based holding company whose businesses invest in, develop and operate energy infrastructure in North America and provide electric and gas services to customers. Sempra has the following three operating and reportable segments, which are managed separately based on services provided, geographic location and regulatory framework:
▪Sempra California provides natural gas and electric service to Southern California and part of central California through Sempra’s wholly owned subsidiaries, SDG&E and SoCalGas, which are regulated public utilities.
▪Sempra Texas Utilities holds our equity method investment in Oncor Holdings, which owns an 80.25% interest in Oncor, a regulated electric transmission and distribution utility serving customers in the north-central, eastern, western and panhandle regions of Texas; and our equity method investment in Sharyland Holdings, L.P., which owns Sharyland Utilities, a regulated electric transmission utility serving customers near the Texas-Mexico border.
▪Sempra Infrastructure includes the operating companies of SI Partners, in which Sempra Infrastructure owns a 70% interest, as well as a holding company and certain services companies. Sempra Infrastructure develops, builds, operates and invests in energy infrastructure to help provide safe, sustainable and reliable access to cleaner energy in markets in the U.S., Mexico and globally.
Sempra’s CODM is its chief executive officer, who uses segment earnings attributable to common shares predominantly in the annual financial planning process to assess financial performance. Sempra’s CODM prioritizes resource allocation to each segment in a manner that aligns with Sempra’s capital expenditures plan.
Amounts labeled as “Parent and other,” which does not meet the definition of an operating or reportable segment, consist primarily of activities of parent organizations.
The following tables present selected information by segment and reconciliations of assets, capital expenditures for PP&E, and earnings attributable to common shares to Sempra’s consolidated totals.
