Certain statements contained in this presentation may qualify as “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical fact should be considered forward-looking
statements made in good faith and are intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established
by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”,
“estimate”, “forecast”, “goal”, “intend”, “objective”, “plan”, “project”, “seek”, “strategy” and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed or implied in the statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the
following: general economic conditions on an international, national, state and local level; weather
conditions in our marketing areas; changes in commodity costs; changes in the availability of natural
gas; “non-routine” or “extraordinary” disruptions in our distribution system; regulatory, legislative and
court decisions; competition; the availability and cost of capital; costs and effects of legal proceedings
and environmental liabilities; the failure of customers or suppliers to fulfill their contractual obligations;
and changes in business strategies. These cautionary statements should not be construed by you to be
exhaustive. While SJI believes these forward-looking statements to be reasonable, there can be no
assurance that they will approximate actual experience. Further, SJI undertakes no obligation to update
or revise any of its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.

(1) 2017 reported results, excluding corporate segment results. SJI uses the non-GAAP measure of Economic Earnings. EE eliminates all unrealized gains and losses on
commodity and on the ineffective portion of interest rate derivative transactions; adjusts for realized gains and losses attributed to hedges on inventory transactions and for
the impact of transactions or contractual arrangements where the true economic impact will be realized in a future period. A full explanation and reconciliation of this non-
GAAP measure is provided in our Form 10K on file with the SEC.
