ONE Gas Announces Third-quarter 2018 Financial Results

Declares Fourth-quarter Dividend;

Affirms 2018 Financial Guidance

TULSA, Okla. - October 29, 2018 - ONE Gas, Inc. (NYSE: OGS) today announced financial results for its third quarter 2018, declared its quarterly dividend and affirmed its 2018 financial guidance.

Highlights include:


•	Third-quarter 2018 net income was $16.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared with $18.8 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the third quarter 2017;


•	Year-to-date 2018 net income was $127.5 million, or $2.41 per diluted share, compared with $115.9 million, or $2.19 per diluted share, in the same period last year; and


•	The board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.46 cents per share, or $1.84 per share on an annualized basis, payable on Dec. 3, 2018, to shareholders of record at the close of business on Nov. 13, 2018.

"We continue to execute our strategy of investing in our natural gas distribution systems targeted toward safety, integrity and reliability,” said Pierce H. Norton II, president and chief executive officer. “Our solid third quarter is reflective of these investments."

THIRD-QUARTER 2018 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

ONE Gas reported operating income of $36.2 million in the third quarter 2018, compared with $45.1 million in the third quarter 2017.

Net margin decreased $1.3 million compared with third quarter 2017, which primarily reflects:


•	A $6.0 million decrease related to the deferral of potential refund obligations associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and related rate adjustments; offset by


•	A $3.8 million increase from new rates in Texas and Kansas; and


•	A $1.0 million increase attributed to net residential customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas.

Third-quarter 2018 operating costs were $110.5 million, compared with $104.8 million in the third quarter 2017, which primarily reflects:


•	A $2.8 million increase in employee-related expenses; and


•	A $1.7 million increase in bad debt expense.

Third-quarter 2018 depreciation and amortization expense was $40.3 million, compared with $38.4 million in the third quarter 2017, due primarily to an increase in depreciation expense from capital investments placed in service and an increase in the amortization of the ad-valorem surcharge rider in Kansas.

Results for the third quarter of 2018 include a $2.6 million reduction in income tax expense due to the decrease in the federal statutory income tax rate.

Capital expenditures were $103.5 million for the third quarter 2018, compared with $94.4 million in the third quarter 2017, due primarily to increased system integrity activities and extending service to new areas.

Key Statistics: More detailed information is listed on page 12 in the tables.


•	Residential natural gas sales volumes delivered were 7.5 billion cubic feet (Bcf) in the third quarter 2018, down 3 percent compared with the same period last year;


•	Total natural gas sales volumes delivered were 11.6 Bcf in the third quarter 2018, down 2 percent compared with the same period last year;


•	Natural gas transportation volumes delivered were 45.9 Bcf in the third quarter 2018, down 1 percent compared with the same period last year; and


•	Total natural gas volumes delivered were 57.5 Bcf in the third quarter 2018, down 1 percent compared with the same period last year.

YEAR-TO-DATE 2018 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Operating income for the nine-month 2018 period was $207.6 million, compared with $222.9 million for the same period last year.

Net margin increased $0.7 million compared with the same period last year, which primarily reflects:


•	A $12.7 million increase from new rates in Texas and Kansas;


•	A $4.5 million increase due to higher sales volumes, net of weather normalization, primarily from colder weather in 2018 compared with 2017;


•	A $4.4 million increase due primarily to higher transportation volumes;

•	A $3.4 million increase attributed to net residential customer growth in Oklahoma and Texas;


•	A $1.2 million increase in rider and surcharge recoveries due to a higher ad-valorem surcharge in Kansas, which is offset by higher regulatory amortization expense; and


•	A $0.9 million increase due to the benefit of the retroactive 2017 compressed natural gas federal excise tax credit that was enacted in February 2018; offset by


•	A $27.5 million decrease related to the deferral of potential refund obligations associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and related rate adjustments.

Operating costs for the nine-month 2018 period were $346.8 million, compared with $336.5 million for the same period last year, which primarily reflects:


•	A $10.7 million increase in employee-related expenses; and


•	A $2.3 million increase in bad debt expense; offset by


•	A $2.3 million decrease in outside services costs as certain pipeline maintenance activities were completed with internal resources.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine-month 2018 period was $119.0 million, compared with $113.3 million for the same period last year, due primarily to an increase in depreciation expense from capital investments placed in service and an increase in the amortization of the ad-valorem surcharge rider in Kansas.

Results for the nine-month 2018 period include a $22.6 million reduction in income tax expense due to the decrease in the federal statutory income tax rate.

Capital expenditures for the nine-month 2018 period were $279.3 million, compared with $249.1 million for the same period last year, due primarily to increased system integrity activities and extending service to new areas.

The company ended the third quarter 2018 with $12.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $423.2 million of credit available under its $700 million credit facility. The total debt-to-capitalization ratio at September 30, 2018, was 42 percent, and the ratio of long-term debt-to-capitalization was 37 percent.

REGULATORY ACTIVITY

Oklahoma

In March 2018, Oklahoma Natural Gas filed its second annual Performance-Based Rate Change (PBRC) application following the general rate case that was approved in January 2016.

October 29, 2018

Page 4

The filing was based on a calendar test year of 2017. The PBRC filing identified a $5.6 million credit to base rates primarily due to the reduction in the corporate federal statutory income tax rate. If approved as filed, the credit will be applied to customers' bills over a 12-month period following receipt of an order.

In September 2018, the administrative law judge issued his report. A hearing is scheduled before the Oklahoma Corporation Commission for November 28, 2018, with a final order anticipated in December 2018.

Kansas

In August 2018, Kansas Gas Service submitted an application to the Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) requesting an increase of approximately $2.4 million related to its Gas System Reliability Surcharge (GSRS). An order from the KCC is expected in December 2018, with new rates effective January 1, 2019. GSRS is a capital-recovery mechanism that allows for a rate adjustment providing recovery of and a return on incremental safety-related and government-mandated capital investments made between rate cases.

In June 2018, Kansas Gas Service filed a request with the KCC for an increase in base rates, reflecting investments in system improvements and changes in operating costs necessary to maintain the safety and reliability of its natural gas distribution system. Kansas Gas Service’s request, if approved, represents a net base rate increase of $42.7 million. Kansas Gas Service is already recovering $2.9 million from customers through the GSRS, resulting in a total base rate increase of $45.6 million. Benefits from the reduction in the corporate federal statutory income tax rate are also reflected in the filing. This request would increase the average residential customer's natural gas bill by $5.67 per month, on a net basis.

In accordance with Kansas law, the KCC has 240 days to consider Kansas Gas Service's filing.

Texas

Rio Grande Valley Service Area:

In April 2018, Texas Gas Service filed an annual Cost-of-Service Adjustment for the incorporated areas of the Rio Grande Valley service area. The cities approved an increase of $1.1 million, and new rates became effective in August 2018.

2018 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

ONE Gas affirmed its 2018 financial guidance, which was updated July 30, 2018, with net income expected to be in the range of $167 million to $178 million, or approximately $3.15 to $3.35 per diluted share.

Capital expenditures are expected to be within a range of $375 million to $390 million in 2018, with 70 percent of these expenditures targeted for system integrity and replacement projects.
