H2O America Announces Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
H2O America reported Q3 2026 GAAP diluted EPS of $0.99 and adjusted EPS of $1.04, down sharply from $1.27 in both metrics a year ago, on Q3 revenue of $250.2 million, up 4% year-over-year.
The EPS decline was driven primarily by a higher share count from 2025 ATM usage and the March 2026 common stock issuance; net income fell just 5% on a GAAP basis while nine-month adjusted net income actually grew 8% to $95.3 million.
The company narrowed standalone 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to $3.10-$3.16 (midpoint unchanged at $3.13) and initiated guidance of $2.91-$2.97 including the newly closed $542.7 million Quadvest acquisition and pending Cibolo Valley deal — implying near-term dilution ahead of Texas rate recovery.
Management affirmed long-term 6-8% adjusted EPS CAGR targets and declared a $0.44 quarterly dividend ($1.76 annualized, up from $1.68), extending a 58-year streak of annual dividend increases.
