The Company is also subject to the jurisdiction of the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). PHMSA issues regulations and conducts evaluations, among other things, that set safety standards for pipelines and underground storage facilities. PHMSA may delegate this authority to a state, as it has in New York and Pennsylvania, and that state may choose to institute more stringent safety regulations for the construction, operation and maintenance of intrastate facilities. In addition to this state safety program, the NYPSC imposes additional requirements on the construction of certain utility facilities. Increased regulation by these agencies, and other regulators, or requested changes to construction projects, could lead to operational delays or restrictions and increase compliance costs that the Company may not be able to recover fully through rates or otherwise offset. </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">For additional discussion of the material effects of compliance with government environmental regulation, see Item 7, MD&amp;A under the heading &#8220;Environmental Matters.&#8221;

Gas purchased from producers and suppliers in the United States under multi-month contracts accounted for 42% of these purchases.  Purchases of gas in the spot market (contracts of one month or less) accounted for 58% of the Utility segment&#8217;s 2024 purchases.  Purchases from DTE Energy Trading, Inc. (31%), Vitol, Inc. (18%), EQT Energy, LLC (8%), Emera Energy Services, Inc. (8%), Chevron Natural Gas (6%), and Tenaska Marketing Ventures (6%) accounted for nearly 77% of the Utility segment&#8217;s 2024 gas purchases.  No other producer or supplier provided the Utility segment with more than 5% of its gas requirements in 2024.

Supply Corporation has some unique characteristics which enhance its competitive position.  Most of Supply Corporation&#8217;s facilities are in or near areas overlying the Marcellus and Utica shale production areas in Pennsylvania, and it has established interconnections with producers and other pipelines that provide access to these supplies and to premium off-system markets.  Its facilities are also located adjacent to the Canadian border at the Niagara River providing access to markets in Canada and the northeastern and midwestern United States via the TC Energy pipeline system.  Supply Corporation has developed and placed into service a number of pipeline expansion projects designed to transport natural gas to key markets in New York, Pennsylvania, the northeastern United States, Canada, and to long-haul pipelines with access to the U.S. Midwest, Mid-Atlantic and the Gulf Coast.

Empire is well situated to provide transportation of Appalachian shale gas as well as gas supplies available at Empire&#8217;s interconnect with TC Energy at Chippawa.  Empire&#8217;s geographic location provides it the opportunity to compete for service to its on-system LDC markets, as well as for a share of the gas transportation markets into Canada (via Chippawa) and into the northeastern United States.  Various expansion projects on Empire have expanded its footprint and capability, allowing Empire to serve new markets in New York and elsewhere in the Northeast, and to attach to prolific Marcellus and Utica supplies principally from Tioga and Bradford Counties in Pennsylvania.

In both New York and Pennsylvania, approximately 8% of Distribution Corporation&#8217;s small-volume residential and commercial customers purchase their supplies from unregulated marketers. In contrast, almost all large commercial and industrial customers  are served by marketers.  However, retail competition for gas commodity service does not pose an acute competitive threat for Distribution Corporation, because in both jurisdictions, utility cost of service is recovered through rates and charges for gas delivery service, not gas commodity service. </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Competition for transportation service to large-volume customers continues with local producers or pipeline companies attempting to sell or transport gas directly to end-users located within the Utility segment&#8217;s service territories without use of the utility&#8217;s facilities (i.e., bypass).

However, given the extended time frames associated with the CLCPA&#8217;s emission reduction mandates as discussed in Item 7, MD&amp;A under the heading &#8220;Environmental Matters&#8221; and subheading &#8220;Environmental Regulation,&#8221; any meaningful competition and/or business impacts resulting from the CLCPA cannot be determined.</span></div><div id="i2801338d89bb4a67b5d43c787b29e186_46"></div><div style="margin-top:8pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Seasonality</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Variations in weather conditions can materially affect the volume of natural gas delivered by the Utility segment, as virtually all of its residential and commercial customers use natural gas for space heating.  The effect that this has on Utility segment margins is largely mitigated by a weather normalization adjustment (WNA).   Prior to October 2023, the weather impact on cash flow in the Utility segment was mitigated by a WNA solely in its New York rate jurisdiction.

The availability and cost of credit sources may be cyclical and these capital sources may not remain available to the Company.

For example, to issue incremental long-term debt, subject to certain exceptions, the Company must meet an interest coverage test under its 1974 indenture. In light of impairments recognized in fiscal 2024, the Company expects to be precluded from issuing incremental long-term debt from January 1, 2025 to June 13, 2025, the maturity date of the Company&#8217;s remaining indebtedness outstanding under the 1974 indenture. However, to the extent a need arises to issue such incremental long-term debt, the Company expects to be able to place future principal and interest payments in trust for the benefit of bondholders pursuant to the terms of the 1974 indenture.  Depositing the future principal and interest payments in trust would effectively relieve the Company from its obligations to comply with the 1974 indenture&#8217;s restrictions, including those on the issuance of incremental long-term debt.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s short-term bank loans, commercial paper, and borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement, entered into on February 14, 2024 with six lenders (the &#8220;Term Loan Agreement&#8221;), are in the form of floating rate debt or debt that may have rates fixed for short periods of time (up to six months), resulting in exposure to interest rate fluctuations in the absence of interest rate hedging transactions. The cost of long-term debt, the interest rates on the Company&#8217;s short-term bank loans, commercial paper, and borrowings under its Term Loan Agreement, and the ability of the Company to issue commercial paper are affected by its credit ratings published by S&amp;P, Moody&#8217;s Investors Service, Inc. and Fitch Ratings, Inc. A downgrade in the Company&#8217;s credit ratings could increase borrowing costs, restrict or eliminate access to commercial paper markets, negatively impact the availability of capital from uncommitted sources, and require the Company&#8217;s subsidiaries to post letters of credit, cash or other assets as collateral with certain counterparties. Additionally, $1.4 billion of the Company&#8217;s outstanding long-term debt would be subject to an interest rate increase if certain fundamental changes occur that involve a material subsidiary and result in a downgrade of a credit rating assigned to the notes below investment grade.

Under the Paris Agreement, signatory countries are expected to submit their nationally determined contributions to curb greenhouse gas emissions and meet the agreed temperature objectives every five years.

For example, in August 2022, the federal Inflation Reduction Act was signed into law, which includes a waste emissions charge that is expected to be applicable to the annual methane emissions of certain oil and gas facilities, above specified methane intensity thresholds, for emissions reported to the U.S. EPA for calendar year 2024.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">A number of states have also adopted energy strategies or plans with goals that include the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. For example, Pennsylvania has a methane reduction framework for the natural gas industry which has resulted in permitting changes with the stated goal of reducing methane emissions from well sites, compressor stations and pipelines.  Furthermore, in 2019, the New York State legislature passed the CLCPA, which created emission reduction and electrification mandates, and could ultimately impact the Utility segment&#8217;s customer base and business. Pursuant to the CLCPA, New York&#8217;s Climate Action Council (&#8220;CAC&#8221;) approved a final scoping plan that includes recommendations to strategically downsize and decarbonize the natural gas system and curtail use of natural gas and natural gas appliances. The final scoping plan was approved on December 19, 2022 and includes detailed recommendations to meet the CLCPA&#8217;s emissions reduction targets in the transportation, buildings, electricity, industry, agriculture &amp; forestry and waste sectors. The final scoping plan also recommends statewide and cross-sector policies relevant to gas system transition, economywide strategies, land use, local government, and adaptation and resilience. Additionally, the scoping plan recommends the implementation of a cap-and-invest program in New York. In January 2023, New York&#8217;s Governor directed the NYDEC and the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority to advance an economywide cap-and-invest program that establishes a declining cap on greenhouse gas emissions, and invests in programs to drive emissions reductions. If this proposed program or a similar program becomes effective and the Company becomes subject to new or revised cap-and-trade programs, cap-and-invest programs, methane charges, fees for carbon-based fuels or other similar costs or charges, the Company may experience additional costs and incremental operating expenses, which would impact our future earnings and cash flows, and may also experience decreased revenue in the event that implementation of these policies leads to reduced demand for natural gas.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In addition to the CLCPA, legislation or regulation that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions could also include natural gas bans, greenhouse gas emissions limits and reporting requirements, carbon taxes and/or similar fees on carbon dioxide, methane or equivalent emissions, restrictive permitting, increased efficiency standards requiring system remediation and/or changes in operating practices, and incentives or mandates to conserve energy or use renewable energy sources. For example, in May 2023, New York State passed legislation that prohibits the installation of fossil fuel burning equipment and building systems in new buildings commencing on or after December 31, 2025, subject to various exemptions.

Both short-term and long-term price trends affect the economics of exploring for, developing, producing, and gathering natural gas. Natural gas prices can be volatile and can be affected by various factors, including weather conditions, natural disasters, consumer demand, national and worldwide economic conditions, economic disruptions caused by terrorist activities, acts of war or major accidents, domestic and foreign political conditions and events, the price and availability of alternative fuels, the proximity to, and availability of, sufficient availability of and capacity on transportation and liquefaction facilities, regional and global levels of supply and demand, energy conservation measures, and government regulations. The Company sells the natural gas that it produces at a combination of current market prices, indexed prices or through fixed- price contracts. The Company hedges a substantial portion of future sales that are based on indexed prices utilizing the physical sale counterparty and/or the financial markets. The prices the Company receives depend upon factors beyond the Company&#8217;s control, including the factors affecting price mentioned above. Any prolonged reduction in natural gas prices could result in the Company reducing the level of exploration and production activity the Company otherwise would pursue, which could have a material adverse effect on its future revenues, cash flows and results of operations.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In the Company&#8217;s Pipeline and Storage segment, significant changes in the price differential between equivalent quantities of natural gas at different geographic locations or sustained high natural gas prices relative to other sources of energy could adversely impact the Company. For example, if the price of natural gas at a particular receipt point on the Company&#8217;s pipeline system increases relative to the price of natural gas at other locations, then the volume of natural gas received by the Company at the relatively more expensive receipt point may decrease, or the Company may need to discount the approved tariff rate for that transportation path in the future in order to maintain the existing volumes on its system. Changes in price differentials can cause shippers to seek alternative lower priced natural gas supplies and, consequently, alternative transportation routes. In some cases, shippers may decide not to renew transportation contracts due to changes in price differentials. While much of the impact of lower volumes under existing contracts would be offset by the straight fixed-variable rate design, this rate design does not protect Supply Corporation or Empire where shippers do not contract for expiring capacity at the same quantity and rate. If contract renewals were to decrease, revenues and earnings in this segment may decrease. Significant changes in the price differential between futures contracts for natural gas having different delivery dates could also adversely impact the Company.  For example, if the prices of natural gas futures contracts for winter deliveries to locations served by the Pipeline and Storage segment decline relative to the prices of such contracts for summer deliveries (as a result, for instance, of increased production of natural gas within the segment&#8217;s geographic area or other factors), then demand for the Company&#8217;s natural gas storage services driven by that price differential could decrease.

You should not assume that the present value of future net cash flows from the Company&#8217;s proved reserves is the current market value of the Company&#8217;s estimated natural gas reserves. In accordance with SEC requirements, the Company bases the estimated discounted future net cash flows from its proved reserves on a 12-month average of historical prices for natural gas (based on first day of the month prices and adjusted for hedging) and on costs as of the date of the estimate, which are all discounted at the SEC mandated discount rate. Actual future prices and costs may differ materially from those used in the net present value estimate.

The process of estimating natural gas reserves is complex. The process involves significant assumptions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data for each reservoir. Future economic and operating conditions are uncertain, and changes in those conditions could cause a revision to the Company&#8217;s reserve estimates in the future. Estimates of economically recoverable natural gas reserves and of future net cash flows depend upon a number of variable factors and assumptions, including historical production from the area compared with production from other comparable producing areas, and the assumed effects of regulations by governmental agencies. Because all reserve estimates are to some degree subjective, each of the following items may differ materially from those assumed in estimating reserves: the quantities of natural gas that are ultimately recovered, the timing of the recovery of natural gas reserves, the production and operating costs to be incurred, the amount and timing of future development and abandonment expenditures, and the price received for the production.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:11.25pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Financial accounting requirements regarding exploration and production activities may affect the Company</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">&#8217;</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">s profitability.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company accounts for its exploration and production activities under the full cost method of accounting. Each quarter, the Company must perform a &#8220;ceiling test&#8221; calculation, comparing the level of its unamortized investment in exploration and production properties to the present value of the future net revenue projected to be recovered from those properties according to methods prescribed by the SEC. In determining present value, the Company uses a 12-month historical average price for commodity pricing (based on first day of the month prices and adjusted for hedging) as well as the SEC mandated discount rate. If, at the end of any quarter, the amount of the unamortized investment exceeds the net present value of the projected future cash flows, such investment may be considered to be &#8220;impaired,&#8221; and the full cost authoritative accounting and reporting guidance require that the investment must be written down to the calculated net present value. Such an instance would require the Company to recognize an immediate expense in that quarter, and its earnings would be reduced. Depending on the magnitude of any decrease in average prices, that charge could be material. Under the Company&#8217;s existing indenture covenants, an impairment will restrict the Company&#8217;s ability to issue incremental long-term unsecured indebtedness for a period of time, beginning with the fourth calendar month following the impairment and ending not later than June 13, 2025, the maturity date of the Company&#8217;s remaining indebtedness outstanding under its 1974 indenture. In addition, because an impairment results in a charge to retained earnings, it lowers the Company&#8217;s total capitalization, all other things being equal, and increases the Company&#8217;s debt to capitalization ratio. As a result, an impairment can impact the Company&#8217;s ability to maintain compliance with the debt to capitalization covenant set forth in its committed credit facility.

The occurrence of an event not fully insured or indemnified against, the imposition of fines, penalties or mandated programs by governmental authorities, the failure of a contractor to meet its indemnification obligations, or the failure of an insurance company to pay valid claims could result in substantial losses to the Company. In addition, insurance may not be available, or if available may not be adequate, to cover any or all of these risks. It is also possible that insurance premiums or other costs may rise significantly in the future, so as to make such insurance prohibitively expensive.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Hazards and risks faced by the Company, and insurance and indemnification obtained or provided by the Company, may subject the Company to litigation or administrative proceedings from time to time.

The total and timing of actual future production may vary significantly from reserves and production estimates. The Company&#8217;s drilling of development wells can involve significant risks, including those related to timing, success rates, and cost overruns, and these risks can be affected by lease and rig availability, completion crew and related equipment availability, geology, and other factors.

Any material delayed recovery or disallowance of purchased natural gas costs could have a material adverse effect on cash flow and earnings.</span></div><div style="height:72pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">-24-</span></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"/><div style="min-height:63pt;width:100%"><div><span><br/></span></div></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">GENERAL RISKS</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:11.25pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s credit ratings may not reflect all the risks of an investment in its securities.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s credit ratings are an independent assessment of its ability to pay its obligations.

This is particularly true for pension and other post-retirement benefit plans, which are dependent on actual plan asset returns and factors used to determine the value and current costs of plan benefit obligations. In addition, if medical costs rise at a rate faster than the general inflation rate, the Company might not be able to mitigate the rising costs of medical benefits. Increases to the costs of pension, other post-retirement and medical benefits could have an adverse effect on the Company&#8217;s financial results.  The Company&#8217;s earnings and cash flows may also be impacted by the rate treatment of certain income and expense activity, including the crediting of employee benefit plan trust income to ratepayers by reducing delivery rates and customer revenues, and the refund of regulatory liability balances.

Campaigns by shareholders to effect changes at publicly traded companies are sometimes led by investors seeking to increase short-term shareholder value through actions such as financial restructuring, increased debt, special dividends, stock repurchases or sales of assets or the entire company.  Additionally, activist shareholders may submit proposals to promote an environmental, social, and/or governance position. Responding to proxy contests and other actions by activist shareholders can be costly and time-consuming, disrupting the Company&#8217;s operations and diverting the attention of the Company&#8217;s Board of Directors and senior management from the pursuit of business strategies.

Note&#160;N sets forth proved developed and undeveloped reserve information for Seneca.  The September&#160;30, 2024, 2023 and 2022 reserves shown in Note&#160;N are valued using an unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period.  The reserves were estimated by Seneca&#8217;s petroleum engineers and were audited by independent petroleum engineers from Netherland, Sewell&#160;&amp; Associates, Inc.  Note&#160;N discusses the qualifications of the Company&#8217;s petroleum engineers, internal controls over the reserve estimation process and audit of the reserve estimates and changes in proved developed and undeveloped gas reserves year over year.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Seneca&#8217;s proved developed and undeveloped natural gas reserves increased from 4,535 Bcf at September 30, 2023 to 4,752 Bcf at September 30, 2024.  This increase is attributed to extensions and discoveries of 602 Bcf and revisions of previous estimates of 7 Bcf, partially offset by production of 392 Bcf.  Upward revisions of 145 Bcf are mainly attributed to positive performance improvements, changes to the booked lateral length and optimized development layout.  The additions and upward revisions were partially offset by downward revisions of 138 Bcf from the removal of nine PUD locations related to schedule changes and price-related revisions.

The Company operates an integrated business, with assets centered in western New York and Pennsylvania, being utilized for, and benefiting from, the production and transportation of natural gas from the Appalachian Basin.  Current exploration and production development activities are focused primarily in the Marcellus and Utica shales, geological formations that are present in the Appalachian region of the United States.  The common geographic footprint of the Company&#8217;s subsidiaries enables them to share management, labor, facilities and support services across various businesses and pursue coordinated projects designed to produce and transport natural gas from the Appalachian Basin to markets in the eastern United States and Canada.  The Company&#8217;s efforts in this regard are not limited to affiliated projects.  The Company has also been designing and building pipeline projects for the transportation of natural gas for non-affiliated natural gas customers in the Appalachian Basin.  In addition to expansion projects, the Company continues to focus on the ongoing modernization of its regulated Pipeline and Storage and Utility assets.

On June 15, 2023, the PaPUC issued an order adopting the settlement in full. The settlement authorized an increase in Distribution Corporation&#8217;s annual base rate operating revenues of $23 million that became effective August 1, 2023.  Distribution Corporation also filed a rate case proceeding with the NYPSC in its New York jurisdiction on October 31, 2023 seeking an increase of approximately $88 million in its total annual operating revenues for the projected rate year ending September 30, 2025, with a proposed effective date of October 1, 2024.  After settlement negotiations, a Joint Proposal was filed with the NYPSC on September 9, 2024, that establishes a three-year rate plan allowing for an $86 million increase in annual revenue requirement over three years, with the first-year impact of $57 million in fiscal 2025 and the remainder in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2027.  It also includes standard make-whole language allowing the recovery of authorized revenues between September 30, 2024 and the start of new rates.  The Joint Proposal remains subject to final NYPSC approval.  In addition, Supply Corporation filed an NGA Section 4 rate case at FERC on July 31, 2023.  Settlement rates became effective on February 1, 2024 under a settlement that was approved by FERC without modification on June 11, 2024, and which is estimated to increase Supply Corporation&#8217;s revenues by approximately $56 million on an annual basis.

The Company recorded cumulative impairment charges under the ceiling test during fiscal 2024 of $463.7 million ($336.4 million after-tax).  Looking ahead, the first day of the month Henry Hub spot price for natural gas in October 2024 and November 2024 was $2.66 per MMBtu and $1.87 per MMBtu, respectively. Given these prices, and the expected replacement of higher gas prices with lower gas prices in the historical 12-month average that will be used in the ceiling test calculation for the next quarter, the Company expects to experience a ceiling test impairment for the quarter ending December 31, 2024, and could record additional ceiling test impairments in fiscal 2025.

However, the 1974 indenture would not prevent the Company from issuing new long-term debt to replace existing long-term debt, including borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement, or from issuing additional short-term debt.  To the extent a need arises to issue incremental long-term debt, the Company expects to be able to place future principal and interest payments in trust for the benefit of bondholders pursuant to the terms of the 1974 indenture.

Under this accounting methodology, all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized, including internal costs directly identified with acquisition, exploration and development activities. The internal costs that are capitalized do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. The Company does not recognize any gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of properties unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves attributable to a cost center.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Proved reserves are estimated quantities of reserves that, based on geologic and engineering data, appear with reasonable certainty to be producible under existing economic and operating conditions. Such estimates of proved reserves are inherently imprecise and may be subject to substantial revisions as a result of numerous factors including, but not limited to, additional development activity, evolving production history and continual reassessment of the viability of production under varying economic conditions. The estimates involved in determining proved reserves are critical accounting estimates because they serve as the basis over which capitalized costs are depleted under the full cost method of accounting (on a units-of-production basis). Unproved properties are excluded from the depletion calculation until proved reserves are found or it is determined that the unproved properties are impaired. All costs related to unproved properties are reviewed quarterly to determine if impairment has occurred. The amount of any impairment is transferred to the pool of capitalized costs being amortized.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In addition to depletion under the units-of-production method, proved reserves are a major component in the SEC full cost ceiling test. The full cost ceiling test is an impairment test prescribed by SEC Regulation&#160;S-X Rule&#160;4-10. The ceiling test, which is performed each quarter, determines a limit, or ceiling, on the amount of property acquisition, exploration and development costs that can be capitalized. The ceiling under this test represents (a)&#160;the present value of estimated future net cash flows, excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet, using a discount factor of 10%, which is computed by applying an unweighted arithmetic average of the first day of the month commodity prices for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period (as adjusted for hedging) to estimated future production of proved reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet, less estimated future expenditures, plus (b)&#160;the cost of unproved properties not being depleted, less (c)&#160;income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. The estimates of future production and future expenditures are based on internal budgets that reflect planned production from current wells and expenditures, which are based on current costs, associated with future production. The amount of the ceiling can fluctuate significantly from period to period because of additions to or subtractions from proved reserves and significant fluctuations in natural gas prices. The ceiling is then compared to the capitalized cost of exploration and production properties less accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes. If the capitalized costs of exploration and production properties less accumulated depletion and related deferred taxes exceeds the ceiling at the end of any fiscal quarter, a non-cash impairment charge must be recorded to write down the book value of the reserves to their present value. This non-cash impairment cannot be reversed at a later date if the ceiling increases. It should also be noted that a non-cash impairment to write down the book value of the reserves to their present value in any given period causes a reduction in future depletion expense. The book value of the exploration and production properties exceeded the ceiling at September 30, 2024 as well as June 30, 2024, resulting in a cumulative non-cash impairment charge of $463.7&#160;million ($336.4 million after-tax) for the year ended September 30, 2024.

(Note:  Because actual pricing of the Company&#8217;s producing properties vary depending on their location and hedging, the prices used to calculate the ceiling may differ from the Henry Hub price, which is only indicative of 12-month average prices for 2024. Actual realized pricing includes adjustments for regional market differentials, transportation fees and contractual arrangements.) The following table illustrates the sensitivity of the ceiling test calculation to commodity price changes, specifically showing the additional impairment that the Company would have recorded at September 30, 2024 if natural gas prices were $0.25 per MMBtu lower than the average prices used at September 30, 2024 (all amounts are presented after-tax). These calculated amounts are based solely on price changes and do not take into account any other changes to the ceiling test calculation, including, among others, changes in reserve quantities and future cost estimates.  </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><table style="border-collapse:collapse;display:inline-table;margin-bottom:5pt;vertical-align:text-bottom;width:100.000%"><tr><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:80.066%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:17.734%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/></tr><tr><td colspan="6" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:100%">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;Ceiling Testing Sensitivity to Commodity Price Changes</span></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">(Millions)</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:9.5pt;font-weight:700;line-height:100%">$0.25/MMBtu<br/>Decrease in<br/>Natural Gas Prices</span></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="background-color:#cceeff;padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:middle"><div style="padding-left:13.5pt;text-indent:-13.5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">Calculated Impairment under Sensitivity Analysis</span></div></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0 2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">$</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">579.4&#160;</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 1pt 2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 1pt 2px 14.5pt;text-align:left;text-indent:-13.5pt;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">Actual Impairment Recorded at September 30, 2024</span></td><td colspan="2" style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 0 2px 1pt;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">191.4&#160;</span></td><td style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 1pt 2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="background-color:#cceeff;padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><div style="padding-left:13.5pt;text-indent:-13.5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">Additional Impairment</span></div></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-bottom:3pt double #000000;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0 2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">$</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-bottom:3pt double #000000;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">388.0&#160;</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-bottom:3pt double #000000;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 1pt 2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="display:none"/><td colspan="3" style="display:none"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="display:none"/><td colspan="3" style="display:none"/></tr></table></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Looking ahead, the first day of the month Henry Hub spot price for natural gas in October 2024 and November 2024 was $2.66 per MMBtu and $1.87 per MMBtu, respectively.

The Company, in its Utility and Pipeline and Storage segments, has accounting policies which conform to the FASB authoritative guidance regarding accounting for certain types of regulations, and which are in accordance with the accounting requirements and ratemaking practices of the regulatory authorities. The application of these accounting principles for certain types of rate-regulated activities provides that certain actual or anticipated costs that would otherwise be charged to expense can be deferred as regulatory assets, based on the expected recovery from customers in future rates. Likewise, certain actual or anticipated credits that would otherwise reduce expense can be deferred as regulatory liabilities, based on the expected flowback to customers in future rates. Management&#8217;s assessment of the probability of recovery or pass through of regulatory assets and liabilities requires judgment and interpretation of laws and regulatory commission orders. If, for any reason, the Company ceases to meet the criteria for application of regulatory accounting treatment for all or part of its operations, the regulatory assets and liabilities related to those portions ceasing to meet such criteria would be eliminated from the balance sheet and included in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the period in which the discontinuance of regulatory accounting treatment occurs. Such amounts would be classified as an extraordinary item.

2024 as compared with 2023.  Gas production revenue after hedging increased $7.3 million primarily due to a 19.8 Bcf increase in gas production offset by a $0.11 per Mcf decrease in the weighted average realized price of gas after hedging.  The increase in gas production was largely due to new Marcellus and Utica wells in the Appalachian region. Partially offsetting this increase, other revenue decreased $4.7 million due to the non-recurrence of temporary capacity release revenue for a portion of this segment&#8217;s transportation capacity in 2023.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Refer to further discussion of derivative financial instruments in the &#8220;Market Risk Sensitive Instruments&#8221; section that follows.

The decrease was primarily attributable to non-cash impairments of assets ($343.2 million), including an aggregate $336.4 million of ceiling test impairments recorded during the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2024 as well as a $6.8 million impairment of certain water disposal assets recorded during the quarter ended September 30, 2024. In conjunction with the ceiling test impairment, there was a $5.8 million earnings reduction associated with the remeasurement of state deferred income taxes. Other factors contributing to the decrease included lower natural gas prices after hedging ($34.0 million) and lower other revenue ($3.7 million), as discussed above. Higher depletion expense ($29.1 million), higher lease operating and transportation expenses ($13.7 million), higher other operating expenses ($8.9 million) and an increase in interest expense ($4.3 million) also reduced earnings. There was also a $4.1 million increase in unrealized losses related to contingent consideration received as part of the California asset sale. These decreases were partially offset by higher natural gas production ($39.8 million) combined with lower other taxes ($3.2 million) and a reduction in income tax expense ($7.3 million). The increase in depletion expense was primarily due to the net increase in production combined with a $0.06 per Mcf increase in the depletion rate. The increase in lease operating and transportation expenses was primarily the result of higher gathering and transportation costs combined with higher workover expenses. The increase in other operating expenses was primarily attributable to recognizing an accrual of plugging and abandonment costs related to certain offshore Gulf of Mexico wells and certain California wells that were sold by Seneca to operators that are now defunct or unable to cover the cost of the abandonment activities. As a result, a portion of the cost of abandoning the wells is expected to revert back to Seneca. Higher personnel costs also contributed to the increase in other operating expenses. The increase in interest expense can largely be attributed to higher average interest rates on intercompany short-term and long-term borrowings, partially offset by lower intercompany long-term debt balances. The decrease in other taxes was primarily attributable to lower Impact Fees in the Appalachian region as the Company moved into a lower rate tier due to lower NYMEX pricing. The reduction in income tax expense was primarily driven by a decrease in pre-tax income and lower state income tax expense. The lower state income taxes were a result of a decrease in Pennsylvania&#8217;s state income tax rate from 9.99% in the prior year to 8.99% in the current year, as well as a change in the mix of revenues between state jurisdictions. </span></div><div style="height:72pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span

The impairment charge wrote down the carrying value of certain assets associated with Supply Corporation and Empire&#8217;s Northern Access project. Additional details related to the Northern Access project are discussed in the Other Matters section below. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher personnel costs, an increase in outside services expenses (including compressor and other pipeline maintenance costs), as well as higher power costs related to Empire&#8217;s electric motor drive compressor station. This increase in electric power costs is offset by an equal increase in revenue. The increase in interest expense is mainly due to an increase in intercompany short-term borrowings along with a higher weighted average interest rate on intercompany long-term borrowings. The increase in depreciation expense was primarily due to higher average depreciable plant in service compared to the prior year, partially offset by a reduction in certain Supply Corporation depreciation rates associated with its rate case settlement. The factors that decreased earnings were partially offset by the impact of higher operating revenues ($26.2 million), as discussed above, combined with an increase in other income ($1.6 million). The increase in other income is primarily due to an increase in interest income related to a higher weighted average interest rate on intercompany short-term notes receivables and a higher average amount outstanding on those receivables.</span></div><div id="i2801338d89bb4a67b5d43c787b29e186_112"></div><div style="margin-top:9pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New

The increase in earnings was mainly due to higher gathering revenues ($11.0 million) driven by the increase in gathered volume, as discussed above, and lower interest expense ($0.6 million). The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to higher capitalized interest. This increase was partially offset by higher depreciation expense ($2.4 million) and higher operating expenses ($1.3 million). The increase in depreciation expense was largely due to additional plant in-service associated with the Tioga and Clermont gathering systems. </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New

with 2023. The decrease resulted from a $251.0 million decrease in retail gas sales revenue and a $1.8 million decrease in other revenues. The decrease in retail gas sales revenue was primarily due to a decrease in the cost of gas sold (per Mcf) as well as a 5.1 Bcf decrease in throughput largely due to warmer weather. These factors were partially offset by the impact of new base rates in Distribution Corporation&#8217;s Pennsylvania jurisdiction pursuant to a settlement approved by the PaPUC on June 15, 2023. Additional details regarding the base rate regulatory proceeding can be found in the Regulatory Matters section below.

The decreases in retail gas sales and other revenues were partially offset by a $7.7 million increase in transportation revenue, predominantly due to the impact of the new base rates in Pennsylvania in addition to an increase in the system modernization and system improvement tracker allocations to customers in New York.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Purchased Gas</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The cost of purchased gas is one of the Company&#8217;s largest operating expenses. Annual variations in purchased gas costs are attributed directly to changes in gas sales volume, the price of gas purchased and the operation of purchased gas adjustment clauses. Distribution Corporation recorded $283.2&#160;million and $548.2&#160;million of Purchased Gas expense during 2024 and 2023, respectively. Under its purchased gas adjustment clauses in New York and Pennsylvania, Distribution Corporation does not profit from fluctuations in gas costs. Purchased Gas expense recorded on the consolidated income statement matches the revenues collected from customers, a component of Operating Revenues on the consolidated income statement. Under mechanisms approved by the NYPSC in New York and the PaPUC in Pennsylvania, any difference between actual purchased gas costs and what has been collected from the customer is deferred on the consolidated balance sheet as either an asset, Unrecovered Purchased Gas Costs, or a liability, Amounts Payable to Customers. These deferrals are subsequently collected from the customer or passed back to the customer, subject to review by the NYPSC and the PaPUC. Absent disallowance of full recovery of Distribution Corporation&#8217;s purchased gas costs, such costs do not impact the profitability of the Company. Purchased gas costs impact cash flow from operations due to the timing of recovery of such costs versus the actual purchased gas costs incurred during a particular period. Distribution Corporation&#8217;s purchased gas adjustment clauses seek to mitigate this impact by adjusting revenues on either a quarterly or monthly basis.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Distribution Corporation contracts for firm long-term transportation and storage capacity services with rights-of-first-refusal from ten upstream pipeline companies including Supply Corporation for transportation and storage services and Empire, for transportation services.

The increase was mainly due to the impact of new base rates in the Utility segment&#8217;s Pennsylvania jurisdiction ($18.1 million), the impact of system modernization and system improvement trackers in New York ($7.9 million), lower income tax expense ($4.4 million), and an increase in other income ($1.7 million). The decrease in income tax expense was largely due to an increase in tax deductions related to certain repairs and maintenance expenditures recorded in the Utility&#8217;s Pennsylvania jurisdiction as a result of updated IRS guidance published in 2023. The increase in other income was primarily driven by a decrease in non-service costs in the Utility segment&#8217;s Pennsylvania jurisdiction. These factors were partially offset by the earnings impact associated with certain revenue decreases ($8.8 million), including a decrease in regulatory adjustments ($5.3 million), a decrease in other operating revenues ($2.1 million), and a decrease due to lower usage and weather ($1.4 million). Higher operating expenses ($10.7 million), higher depreciation expense ($3.0 million), and higher interest expense ($0.9 million) were other factors that reduced earnings. The increase in operating expenses was mainly due to higher personnel costs. The increase in depreciation expense was mainly due to higher average plant balances in the New York jurisdiction and increased depreciation associated with negative net salvage (i.e., cost of removal in excess of salvage value).</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The impact of weather variations on earnings in the Utility segment is mitigated by a WNA.

Additionally, the Company elected to draw a total of $300.0 million under a delayed draw term loan credit facility in April 2024.

to have adequate amounts of cash available to meet both its short-term and long-term cash requirements for at least the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. During 2025, based on current commodity prices, cash provided by operating activities is expected to exceed capital expenditures. The Company also has two long-term debt maturities in 2025, totaling $500.0 million, which the Company anticipates funding with long-term borrowings. Looking forward to 2026, based on current commodity prices, cash provided by operating activities is again expected to exceed capital expenditures. These cash flow projections do not reflect the impact of acquisitions or divestitures that may arise in the future.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">OPERATING CASH FLOW</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Internally generated cash from operating activities consists of net income available for common stock, adjusted for non-cash expenses, non-cash income, gains and losses associated with investing and financing activities, and changes in operating assets and liabilities.

In the Utility segment, supplier refunds, over- or under-recovered purchased gas costs, weather and regulatory lag may also significantly impact cash flow.  The impact of weather on cash flow is tempered in the Pipeline and Storage segment by the straight fixed-variable rate design used by Supply Corporation and Empire. Prior to October 2023, the weather impact on cash flow in the Utility segment was mitigated by a WNA solely in its New York rate jurisdiction. However, effective October 2023, the weather impact on cash flow in the Utility segment is also mitigated by a WNA in its Pennsylvania rate jurisdiction. The Pennsylvania rate jurisdiction WNA resulted from the PaPUC&#8217;s approved settlement on June 15, 2023, further discussed in the Rate Matters section below.

The decrease in cash provided by operating activities primarily reflects lower cash provided by operating activities in the Exploration and Production segment and Utility segment. The decrease in the Exploration and Production segment is primarily due to lower cash receipts from natural gas production in the Appalachian region. The decrease in the Utility segment is primarily due to the timing of gas cost recovery.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">INVESTING CASH FLOW</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Expenditures for Long-Lived Assets</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s expenditures for long-lived assets, including non-cash capital expenditures, totaled $942.0 million and $1.12 billion in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The 2017 Rate Order provided for a return on equity of 8.7% and directed the implementation of an earnings sharing mechanism to be in place beginning on April 1, 2018. On October 31, 2023, Distribution Corporation made a filing with the NYPSC seeking an increase of approximately $88&#160;million in its total annual operating revenues for the projected rate year ending September 30, 2025, with a proposed effective date of October 1, 2024. A Notice of Impending Settlement Negotiations was filed with the NYPSC on March 26, 2024. Thereafter, settlement discussions with parties commenced and to facilitate these discussions, the Company requested postponements of the evidentiary hearing and agreed to extensions of the suspension period for the effective date of new base delivery rates subject to a &#8220;make-whole&#8221; provision that would permit the Company to recover or refund any revenue under-collections or over-collections, respectively, resulting from the extension period. The settlement negotiations were successful and resulted in a Joint Proposal (&#8220;JP&#8221;) that establishes a three-year rate plan allowing for an $86 million increase in annual revenue requirement over three years, with the first-year impact of $57 million in fiscal 2025 and the remainder in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2027. The JP settles all contested issues among the signatory parties and includes, among other things, a return on equity of 9.7%, a common equity ratio of 48% for rate setting purposes, an earnings sharing mechanism, an uncollectible expense tracker, and continuation of the Company&#8217;s leak prone pipe replacement program. The revenue requirement in the JP also includes the impact of negative pension/OPEB expense. The JP was filed with the NYPSC on September 9, 2024.  On November 14, 2024, the NYPSC issued an order extending the suspension period through December 31, 2024. That order also includes a &#8220;make-whole&#8221; provision from September 30, 2024 until the date new rates take effect under the final decision on the JP. </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Pennsylvania Jurisdiction</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On October 28, 2022, Distribution Corporation made a filing with the PaPUC seeking an increase in its annual base rate operating revenues of $28.1&#160;million.

These efforts include legislation, legislative proposals and new regulations at the state and federal level, and private party litigation related to greenhouse gas emissions. Legislation or regulation that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions could also include emissions limits, reporting requirements, carbon taxes, cap and invest and cap and trade programs, restrictive permitting, increased efficiency standards, and incentives or mandates to conserve energy or use renewable energy sources. For example, the federal Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA) legislation was signed into law on August 16, 2022, and includes a directive for the EPA, the lead federal agency that regulates greenhouse gas emissions pursuant to the Clean Air Act, to develop a waste emissions charge (WEC) applicable to the reported annual methane emissions of certain oil and gas facilities, above specified methane intensity thresholds. The WEC remains in the proposed rulemaking stage, and is expected to begin in calendar year 2025, covering emissions from applicable facilities reported for calendar year 2024. The regulations implemented by the EPA also impose stringent leak detection and repair requirements and address reporting and control of methane and volatile organic compound emissions, which were further expanded with EPA&#8217;s March 2024 publication and finalization of the Standards of Performance for New, Reconstructed, and Modified Sources and Emissions Guidelines for Existing Sources and its May 2024 finalization of the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, Part 98 - Subpart W Final Rule. </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Additionally, a number of states have adopted energy strategies or plans with aggressive goals for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

Federal, state or local governments may provide tax advantages and other subsidies to support alternative energy sources, mandate the use of specific fuels or technologies, or promote research into new technologies to reduce the cost and increase the scalability of alternative energy sources. The New York State legislature passed the CLCPA that mandates reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 40% from 1990 levels by 2030, and by 85% from 1990 levels by 2050, with the remaining emission reduction achieved by controlled offsets. The CLCPA also requires electric generators to meet 70% of demand with renewable energy by 2030 and 100% with zero emissions generation by 2040. The NYPSC has initiated and/or modified various proceedings in an effort to help the State meet these emissions reduction targets. In May 2023, New York State passed legislation that prohibits the installation of fossil fuel burning equipment and building systems in new buildings commencing on or after December 31, 2025, subject to certain exemptions. These climate change and greenhouse gas initiatives could impact the Company&#8217;s customer base and assets depending on the promulgation of final regulations and on regulatory treatment afforded in the process. The NYDEC, in conjunction with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, is developing a cap-and-invest program in the state, which is anticipated to be effective in calendar year 2025. The above-enumerated initiatives could also increase the Company&#8217;s cost of environmental compliance by increasing reporting requirements, requiring retrofitting of existing equipment, requiring installation of new equipment, and/or requiring the purchase of emission allowances. They could also reduce demand for natural gas and delay or otherwise negatively affect efforts to obtain permits and other regulatory approvals. Changing market conditions and new regulatory requirements, as well as unanticipated or inconsistent application of existing laws and regulations by administrative agencies, make it difficult to predict a long-term business impact across twenty or more years.</span></div><div style="height:72pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">-58-</span></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"/><div style="min-height:63pt;width:100%"><div><span><br/></span></div></div><div style="margin-top:6pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">EFFECTS OF INFLATION</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s operations are sensitive to increases in the rate of inflation because of its operational and capital spending requirements in both its regulated and non-regulated businesses.

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting. Under this methodology, all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized. For exploration and production properties, DD&amp;A is computed based on quantities produced in relation to proved reserves using the units-of-production method. As disclosed by management, in addition to depletion under the units-of-production method, proved reserves are a major component in the SEC full cost ceiling test. The full cost ceiling test, which is performed each quarter, determines a limit, or ceiling, on the amount of property acquisition, exploration and development costs that can be capitalized. If capitalized costs, net of accumulated DD&amp;A and related deferred income taxes, exceed the ceiling at the end of any quarter, a permanent impairment is required to be charged to earnings in that quarter. For the year ended September 30, 2024, pre-tax impairment charges of $463.7 million were recognized. Estimates of the Company&#8217;s proved natural gas reserves and the future net cash flows from those reserves were prepared by the Company&#8217;s petroleum engineers and audited by independent petroleum engineers (together referred to as &#8220;management&#8217;s specialists&#8221;). Petroleum engineering involves significant assumptions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data for each reservoir. Estimates of economically recoverable natural gas reserves and of future net cash flows depend upon a number of variable factors and assumptions, including quantities of natural gas that are ultimately recovered, the timing of the recovery of natural gas reserves, the production and operating costs to be incurred, the amount and timing of future development and abandonment expenditures, and the price received for the production.  </span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="height:72pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:center"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">-64-</span></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"/><div style="min-height:63pt;width:100%"><div><span><br/></span></div></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impact of proved natural gas reserves on exploration and production properties, net is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management, including the use of management&#8217;s specialists, when developing the estimates of proved natural gas reserves and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to the data, methods, and assumptions used by management and its specialists in developing the estimates of proved natural gas reserves.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

The allowance, the majority of which is in the Utility segment, is determined based on historical experience, the age of customer accounts, other specific information about customer accounts, and the economic and regulatory environment. Account balances have historically been written off against the allowance approximately twelve months after the account is final billed or when it is anticipated that the receivable will not be recovered.  However, final billings were suppressed in the Utility segment during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of state shut-off moratoriums. Those moratoriums were lifted in 2022 which allowed for the resumption of final billings during 2022, thereby resulting in higher amounts being written off in 2023 and 2024.</ix:continuation>

The ceiling test, which is performed each quarter, determines a limit, or ceiling, on the amount of property acquisition, exploration and development costs that can be capitalized. The ceiling under this test represents (a)&#160;the present value of estimated future net cash flows, excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet, using a discount factor of <ix:nonFraction unitRef="number" contextRef="c-21" decimals="2" name="nfg:FullCostCeilingTestDiscountFactor" scale="-2" id="f-434">10</ix:nonFraction>%, which is computed by applying commodity pricing (as adjusted for hedging) to estimated future production of proved reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet, less estimated future expenditures, plus (b)&#160;the cost of unproved properties not being depleted, less (c)&#160;income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. The commodity prices used to calculate the full cost ceiling are based on an unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period. If capitalized costs, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization and related deferred income taxes, exceed the ceiling at the end of any quarter, a permanent non-cash impairment is required to be charged to earnings in that quarter.  The book value of the exploration and production properties exceeded the ceiling at September 30, 2024 as well as at June 30, 2024.

Prior to the completion of the sale of the Company&#8217;s California assets on June 30, 2022, natural gas production occurred primarily in the Appalachian region of the United States and crude oil production occurred primarily in the West Coast region of the United States. Subsequent to June 30, 2022, substantially all Exploration and Production segment production consists of natural gas production from the Appalachian region of the United States.  If a production imbalance occurs between what was supposed to be delivered to a pipeline and what was actually produced and delivered, the Company accrues the difference as an imbalance.&#160; The sales contracts generally require the Company to deliver a specific quantity of a commodity per day for a specific number of days at a price that is either fixed or variable and considers the delivery of each unit (MMBtu or Bbl) to be a separate performance obligation that is satisfied upon delivery.&#160;&#160;</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The transaction price for the sale of natural gas, oil and NGLs is contractually agreed upon based on prevailing market pricing (primarily tied to a market index with certain adjustments based on factors such as delivery location and prevailing supply and demand conditions) or fixed pricing.&#160; The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on the basis of the relative standalone selling price of each distinct unit sold.

authoritative guidance that requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. An asset retirement obligation is defined as a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset in which the timing and/or method of settlement may or may not be conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the estimated cost of retiring the asset as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is adjusted to its present value each period and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. The Company estimates the fair value of its asset retirement obligations based on the discounting of expected cash flows using various estimates, assumptions and judgments regarding certain factors such as the existence of a legal obligation for an asset retirement obligation; estimated amounts and timing of settlements; the credit-adjusted risk-free rate to be used; and inflation rates. Asset retirement obligations incurred in the current period were Level&#160;3 fair value measurements as the inputs used to measure the fair value are unobservable.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company has recorded an asset retirement obligation representing plugging and abandonment costs associated with the Exploration and Production segment&#8217;s natural gas wells and has capitalized such costs in property, plant and equipment (i.e. the full cost pool). </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In addition to the asset retirement obligation recorded in the Exploration and Production segment, the Company has recorded future asset retirement obligations associated with the plugging and abandonment of natural gas storage wells in the Pipeline and Storage segment and the removal of asbestos and asbestos-containing material in various facilities in the Utility and Pipeline and Storage segments.

The law reduces the corporate income tax rate to <ix:nonFraction unitRef="number" contextRef="c-399" decimals="INF" name="us-gaap:EffectiveIncomeTaxRateReconciliationStateAndLocalIncomeTaxes" scale="-2" id="f-1111">8.99</ix:nonFraction>% for fiscal 2024.

Under GAAP, the tax effects of a change in tax law must be recognized in the period in which the law is enacted.  GAAP also requires deferred income tax assets and liabilities to be measured at the enacted tax rate expected to apply when temporary differences are to be realized or settled.  During fiscal 2022, the Company&#8217;s deferred income taxes were initially re-measured based upon the new tax rates.  For the Company&#8217;s non-rate regulated activities, the change in deferred income taxes was $<ix:nonFraction unitRef="usd" contextRef="c-402" decimals="-5" sign="-" name="us-gaap:IncomeTaxExpenseBenefitContinuingOperationsAdjustmentOfDeferredTaxAssetLiability" format="ixt:num-dot-decimal" scale="6" id="f-1114">28.4</ix:nonFraction>&#160;million as of the enactment date and was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense.

for deferred tax assets, including net operating losses and tax credits, is recognized when it is more likely than not that some or all of the benefit from the deferred tax assets will not be

The Company, at each reporting date, assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including factors such as future taxable income, reversal of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies.  The Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of the realization of the deferred tax assets.  On June 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Seneca&#8217;s California oil and gas assets to Sentinel Peak Resources California, LLC.

The IRS released guidance on April 14, 2023, providing a natural gas transmission and distribution property safe harbor method of accounting (&#8220;NGSH method&#8221;) that taxpayers may use to determine whether expenses to repair, maintain, replace, or improve natural gas transmission and distribution property must be capitalized or be allowable as deductions for repairs.  The Company elected this change in tax accounting method for Distribution Corporation with its most recent consolidated tax return filing. The Company is planning to elect this same change in tax accounting method for Supply Corporation with its consolidated tax return filing in the upcoming year and has reflected an estimate in the September 30, 2024 financial statements of what is intended to be treated as a repair for tax purposes rather than being capitalized.

shares granted during 2024, 2023 and 2022 is the Company&#8217;s total return on capital relative to the total return on capital of other companies in a group selected by the Compensation Committee (&#8220;Report Group&#8221;).  Total return on capital for a given company means the average of the Report Group companies&#8217; returns on capital for each twelve-month period corresponding to each of the Company&#8217;s fiscal years during the performance cycle, based on data reported for the Report Group companies in the Bloomberg database.  The number of these ROC performance shares that will vest and be paid will depend upon the Company&#8217;s performance relative to the Report Group and not upon the absolute level of return achieved by the Company.  The fair value of the ROC performance shares is calculated by multiplying the expected number of shares that will be issued by the average market price of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.

The Company&#8217;s Compensation Committee set specific target levels for methane intensity rates and total greenhouse gas emissions, and the performance goal is intended to incentivize and reward performance to the extent management achieves methane intensity and greenhouse gas reduction targets making progress towards the Company&#8217;s 2030 goals.  The number of these ESG performance shares that will vest and be paid out will depend upon the number of methane intensity segment targets achieved and whether the Company meets the total greenhouse gas emissions target. The fair value of these ESG performance shares is calculated by multiplying the expected number of shares that will be issued by the average market price of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.

(with the starting and ending stock prices over the performance cycle calculated as the average closing stock price for the prior calendar month and with dividends reinvested in that company&#8217;s securities at each ex-dividend date) in the Bloomberg database.  The number of these TSR performance shares that will vest and be paid will depend upon the Company&#8217;s performance relative to the Report Group and not upon the absolute level of return achieved by the Company.  The fair value price at the date of grant for the TSR performance shares is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation technique, which includes a reduction in value for the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.  This price is multiplied by the number of TSR performance shares awarded, the result of which is recorded as compensation expense over the vesting term of the award.  In calculating the fair value of the award, the risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of a Treasury Note with a term commensurate with the remaining term of the TSR performance shares. The remaining term is based on the remainder of the performance cycle as of the date of grant.  The expected volatility is based on historical daily stock price returns.  For the TSR performance shares, it was assumed that there would be no forfeitures, based on the vesting term and the number of grantees.  <ix:nonNumeric contextRef="c-1"

In March 2024, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued an order affirming FERC&#8217;s extension of time, with such order final as of late June 2024.

Although the timing of the ultimate evaluation or disposition of the unproved properties cannot be determined, the Company expects the majority of its acquisition costs associated with unproved properties to be transferred into the amortization base by 2029.

NFG common stock is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange, so your investments must be made with caution because of the increasing complexity of applicable laws.  Insider trading violations are pursued vigorously by the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;), the U.S. Department of Justice, state enforcement authorities and foreign jurisdictions, and any SEC insider trading investigation will cause you substantial inconvenience and expense even if you are eventually exonerated.  Punishment for insider trading violations is severe, and could include significant fines and imprisonment.  In addition, an individual&#8217;s failure to comply with this policy on insider trading may subject the individual to Company-imposed sanctions, including dismissal for cause, whether or not the individual&#8217;s failure to comply results in a violation of law.</font></div><div style="padding-right:-9pt"><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">NFG has adopted this policy on insider trading in order to address NFG's obligation to prevent insider trading, to reduce NFG&#8217;s exposure to the expense and risk of investigations into the possibility of illegal insider trading, and to help NFG employees, officers and directors avoid insider trading violations.  This policy is addressed to the employees, officers and directors of NFG, and refers to such persons collectively as &#8220;you.&#8221;</font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">If you have any questions about this policy or its application to any proposed transaction, contact the NFG Legal Department at (716) 857-7086 or (716) 857-7313 before entering into the transaction.</font></div><div style="padding-right:-9pt"><font><br></font></div><div style="padding-right:-9pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:14pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Insider Trading and Tipping Are Prohibited At All Times</font></div><div style="padding-right:-9pt"><font><br></font></div><div style="padding-right:-9pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">What are Insider Trading and Tipping</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">&#63;</font></div><div style="padding-right:-9pt"><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The concept of &#8220;insider&#8221; is broad.  Any person who possesses &#8220;material nonpublic information&#8221; (discussed below) is considered an &#8220;insider&#8221; as to that information.  The definition of an insider is transaction specific&#59; that is, an individual is an insider with respect to each material nonpublic item of information of which he or she is aware. Employees, officers and directors of NFG, while in possession of &#8220;material nonpublic information&#8221; relating to NFG, are considered &#8220;insiders&#8221; under the federal and state securities laws (especially Rule 10b-5 (&#8220;Rule 10b-5&#8221;) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#8220;Exchange Act&#8221;)).  Insiders are prohibited by law from trading in NFG securities.  This prohibited conduct is known as &#8220;insider trading.&#8221;  Passing material nonpublic information on to someone who may buy or sell NFG securities (which is known as &#8220;tipping&#8221;) is also illegal.

This policy also applies to any entities that you control, including any corporations, partnerships or trusts, and transactions by these entities must be treated for the purposes of this policy as if they were for your own account.  NFG may also determine from time to time that other persons should be subject to this policy, such as contractors or consultants who have access to material nonpublic information.</font></div><div style="padding-right:-9pt"><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Any employee, officer or director of NFG can be an insider from time to time and would at those times be prohibited from trading.

In order for the information to be known to the general public, it must be disclosed broadly to the marketplace and the general public must have a reasonable period of time for the information to be absorbed.  As a general rule, information should not be considered fully absorbed by the marketplace until after the completion of at least one full trading day after the day on which that information was released to the general public.  In other words, if on a Monday morning you were aware of material nonpublic information that was publicly disclosed by NFG at noon that day, then Tuesday would be the next full trading day, and generally you could trade starting Wednesday morning unless there were special circumstances.  When this policy refers to a &#8220;trading day,&#8221; that means a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading, ending when trading is closed.  </font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">It is generally much easier to determine whether information is &#8220;nonpublic&#8221; than it is to determine what is &#8220;material&#8221; (likely to influence a reasonable investor&#8217;s decision to buy, sell or hold NFG stock).  Material nonpublic information can include information that something is likely to happen, or just that it might happen.  Material nonpublic information can be positive or negative and can relate to virtually any aspect of a company's business.  There is no bright-line standard for assessing materiality&#59; rather, materiality is based on an assessment of all of the facts and circumstances, and is often evaluated by enforcement authorities with the benefit of hindsight.

In addition, the Company&#8217;s financial results may be sufficiently material in a particular fiscal quarter that, in the judgment of the NFG Legal Department, designated persons should refrain from trading in NFG securities even sooner than the typical blackout period described above.  In that situation, the NFG Legal Department may notify these persons that they should not trade in NFG securities, without disclosing the reason for the restriction.  The existence of an event-specific trading restriction period or early commencement of a blackout period will not be announced to the Company as a whole, and should not be communicated to any other person.  Even if the NFG Legal Department has not designated you as a person who should not trade due to an event-specific restriction, you should not trade while aware of material nonpublic information.

It is our understanding that the proved reserves estimates shown herein constitute all of the proved reserves owned by Seneca.  We have examined the estimates with respect to reserves quantities, reserves categorization, future producing rates, future net revenue, and the present value of such future net revenue, using the definitions set forth in U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X Rule 4-10(a).  The estimates of reserves and future revenue have been prepared in accordance with the definitions and regulations of the SEC and, with the exception of the exclusion of future income taxes, conform to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 932, Extractive Activities&#8212;Oil and Gas.  We completed our audit on or about the date of this letter.

Additionally, these estimates are within the recommended 10 percent tolerance threshold set forth in the SPE Standards.

Seneca has included estimates of proved undeveloped reserves for certain locations that generate positive future net revenue but have negative present worth discounted at 10 percent based on the constant prices and costs discussed in subsequent paragraphs of this letter.

These average regional posted prices are adjusted for quality, transportation fees, and market differentials.  For gas volumes, the average Henry Hub spot price of $2.206 per MMBTU is adjusted for energy content, transportation fees, and market differentials.

Operating costs have been divided into per-well costs and per-unit-of-production costs.  Headquarters general and administrative overhead expenses of Seneca are included to the extent that they are covered under joint operating agreements for the operated properties.  Capital costs used by Seneca are based on authorizations for expenditure and actual costs from recent activity.  Capital costs are included as required for workovers, new development wells, and production equipment.  Abandonment costs used are Seneca's estimates of the costs to abandon the wells and production facilities, net of any salvage value.  Operating, capital, and abandonment costs are not escalated for inflation.</font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The reserves shown in this report are estimates only and should not be construed as exact quantities.  Proved reserves are those quantities of oil and gas which, by analysis of engineering and geoscience data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible&#59; probable and possible reserves are those additional reserves which are sequentially less certain to be recovered than proved reserves.  Estimates of reserves may increase or decrease as a result of market conditions, future operations, changes in regulations, or actual reservoir performance.  In addition to the primary economic assumptions discussed herein, estimates of Seneca and NSAI are based on certain assumptions including, but not limited to, that the properties will be developed consistent with current development plans as provided to us by Seneca, that the properties will be operated in a prudent manner, that no governmental regulations or controls will be put in place that would impact the ability of the interest owner to recover the reserves, and that projections of future production will prove consistent with actual performance.  If the reserves are recovered, the revenues therefrom and the costs related </font></div><div style="height:67.5pt;position:relative;width:100%"><div style="bottom:0;position:absolute;width:100%"><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:72pt;width:100%"><div><font><br></font></div></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">thereto could be more or less than the estimated amounts.

Our audit consisted primarily of substantive testing, wherein we conducted a detailed review of all properties.  In the conduct of our audit, we have not independently verified the accuracy and completeness of information and data furnished by Seneca with respect to ownership interests, oil and gas production, well test data, historical costs of operation and development, product prices, or any agreements relating to current and future operations of the properties and sales of production.  However, if in the course of our examination something came to our attention that brought into question the validity or sufficiency of any such information or data, we did not rely on such information or data until we had satisfactorily resolved our questions relating thereto or had independently verified such information or data.  Our audit did not include a review of Seneca's overall reserves management processes and practices.</font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">We used standard engineering and geoscience methods, or a combination of methods, including performance analysis, volumetric analysis, analogy, and material balance, that we considered to be appropriate and necessary to establish the conclusions set forth herein.  As in all aspects of oil and gas evaluation, there are uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of engineering and geoscience data&#59; therefore, our conclusions necessarily represent only informed professional judgment.</font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Arial',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Supporting data documenting this audit, along with data provided by Seneca, are on file in our office.

This includes a description of the cash and cash equivalents accounting policy with respect to unrestricted balances. Cash includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the customer may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. In addition, cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition.</link:label>

The allowance, the majority of which is in the Utility segment, is determined based on historical experience, the age of customer accounts, other specific information about customer accounts, and the economic and regulatory environment. Account balances have historically been written off against the allowance approximately twelve months after the account is final billed or when it is anticipated that the receivable will not be recovered.  However, final billings were suppressed in the Utility segment during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of state shut-off moratoriums. Those moratoriums were lifted in 2022 which allowed for the resumption of final billings during 2022, thereby resulting in higher amounts being written off in 2023 and 2024.  </span></div><div

The internal costs that are capitalized do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. The Company does not recognize any gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of properties unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves attributable to a cost center.

The ceiling test, which is performed each quarter, determines a limit, or ceiling, on the amount of property acquisition, exploration and development costs that can be capitalized. The ceiling under this test represents (a)&#160;the present value of estimated future net cash flows, excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet, using a discount factor of 10%, which is computed by applying commodity pricing (as adjusted for hedging) to estimated future production of proved reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet, less estimated future expenditures, plus (b)&#160;the cost of unproved properties not being depleted, less (c)&#160;income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. The commodity prices used to calculate the full cost ceiling are based on an unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period. If capitalized costs, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization and related deferred income taxes, exceed the ceiling at the end of any quarter, a permanent non-cash impairment is required to be charged to earnings in that quarter.  The book value of the exploration and production properties exceeded the ceiling at September 30, 2024 as well as at June 30, 2024.  As such, the Company recognized non-cash, pre-tax ceiling test impairment charges in the Exploration and Production segment of $463.7&#160;million for the year ended September 30, 2024.  Deferred income tax benefits of $127.3&#160;million related to the non-cash impairment charges were also recognized for the year ended September 30, 2024.  In adjusting estimated future net cash flows for hedging under the ceiling test at September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, estimated future net cash flows were increased by $428.5 million, increased by $38.8 million and decreased by $1.0 billion, respectively.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Exploration and Production segment also has items of property, plant and equipment that are accounted for outside of the provisions of the full cost method of accounting.

Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For purposes of determining earnings per common share, the potentially dilutive securities the Company had outstanding during fiscal 2024, 2023 and/or 2022 were restricted stock units, performance shares and SARs.

Restricted stock units, performance shares and SARs that are antidilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share.

The restricted stock units do not entitle the participants to dividend and voting rights. The fair value at the date of grant of the restricted stock units (represented by the market value of Company common stock on the date of the award) must be reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.

The performance shares do not entitle the participant to receive dividends during the vesting period.  For performance shares based on a return on capital goal and greenhouse gas emissions reductions goal, the fair value at the date of grant of the performance shares is determined by multiplying the expected number of performance shares to be issued by the market value of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends.  For performance shares based on a total shareholder return goal, the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation technique to estimate the fair value price at the date of grant.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Refer to Note&#160;H&#160;&#8212; Capitalization and Short-Term Borrowings under the heading &#8220;Stock Award Plans&#8221; for additional disclosures related to stock-based compensation awards for all plans.</span></div><span></span>

The Company pursued this sale given the strong commodity price environment and the Company&#8217;s strategic focus in the Appalachian Basin.  Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, the Company can receive up to three annual contingent payments between calendar year 2023 and calendar year 2025, not to exceed $10&#160;million per year, with the amount of each annual payment calculated as $1.0&#160;million for each $1 per barrel that the ICE Brent Average for each calendar year exceeds $95 per barrel up to $105 per barrel.  The sale price, which reflected an effective date of April 1, 2022, was reduced for production revenues less expenses that were retained by Seneca from the effective date to the closing date.  Under the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties, $220.7&#160;million of the sale price at closing was accounted for as reduction of capitalized costs since the disposition did not alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas attributable to the cost center.  The remainder of the sale price ($32.8&#160;million) was applied against assets that are not subject to the full cost method of accounting, with the Company recognizing a gain of $12.7&#160;million on the sale of such assets.  The majority of this gain related to the sale of emission allowances.  The Company also eliminated the asset retirement obligation associated with Seneca&#8217;s California oil and gas assets.  This obligation amounted to $50.1&#160;million and was accounted for as a reduction of capitalized costs under the full cost method of accounting.</span></div><span></span>

This performance obligation is satisfied over time.  The rate design for the Pipeline and Storage segment&#8217;s customers generally includes a combination of volumetric or commodity charges as well as monthly &#8220;fixed&#8221; charges (including charges commonly referred to as capacity charges, demand charges, or reservation charges).  These types of fixed charges represent compensation for standing ready over the period of the month to deliver quantities of gas, regardless of whether the customer takes delivery of any quantity of gas.  The performance obligation under these circumstances is satisfied based on the passage of time and meter reads, if applicable, which correlates to the period for which the charges are eligible to be invoiced.

Natural gas sales and transportation services are provided largely to residential, commercial and industrial customers.  The Utility segment&#8217;s performance obligation to its customers is to deliver natural gas, an obligation which is satisfied over time.

Natural gas is delivered and consumed by the customer simultaneously.  The satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured by the turn of the meter dial.  The amount billable, as determined by the meter read and the tariff-based rate, indicates the value to the customer, and is used for revenue recognition purposes by the Utility segment as specified by the &#8220;invoice practical expedient&#8221; (the amount that the Utility segment has the right to invoice) under the authoritative guidance for revenue recognition.  Since the Utility segment bills its customers in cycles having billing dates that do not generally coincide with the end of a calendar month, a receivable is recorded for natural gas delivered but not yet billed to customers based on an estimate of the amount of natural gas delivered between the last meter reading date and the end of the accounting period.  Such receivables are a component of Unbilled Revenue on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The Utility segment&#8217;s tariffs allow customers to utilize budget billing.  In this situation, since the amount billed may differ from the amount of natural gas delivered to the customer in any given month, revenue is recognized monthly based on the amount of natural gas consumed.  The differential between the amount billed and the amount consumed is recorded as a component of Receivables or Customer Advances on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  All receivables or advances related to budget billing are settled within one year.  </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Utility Segment Alternative Revenue Programs</span></div>As indicated in the revenue table shown above, the Company&#8217;s Utility segment has alternative revenue programs that are excluded from the scope of the authoritative guidance regarding revenue recognition.  The NYPSC has authorized alternative revenue programs that are designed to mitigate the impact that weather and conservation have on margin.  The NYPSC and PaPUC have also authorized additional alternative revenue programs that adjust billings for the effects of broad external factors or to compensate the Company for demand-side management initiatives.  These alternative revenue programs primarily allow the Company and customer to share in variances from imputed margins due to migration of transportation customers, allow for adjustments to the gas cost recovery mechanism for fluctuations in uncollectible expenses associated with gas costs, and allow the Company to pass on to customers costs associated with customer energy efficiency programs.  In general, revenue is adjusted monthly for these programs and is collected from or passed back to customers within 24 months of the annual reconciliation period.<span></span>

An asset retirement obligation is defined as a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset in which the timing and/or method of settlement may or may not be conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the estimated cost of retiring the asset as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is adjusted to its present value each period and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. The Company estimates the fair value of its asset retirement obligations based on the discounting of expected cash flows using various estimates, assumptions and judgments regarding certain factors such as the existence of a legal obligation for an asset retirement obligation; estimated amounts and timing of settlements; the credit-adjusted risk-free rate to be used; and inflation rates. Asset retirement obligations incurred in the current period were Level&#160;3 fair value measurements as the inputs used to measure the fair value are unobservable.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company has recorded an asset retirement obligation representing plugging and abandonment costs associated with the Exploration and Production segment&#8217;s natural gas wells and has capitalized such costs in property, plant and equipment (i.e. the full cost pool). </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In addition to the asset retirement obligation recorded in the Exploration and Production segment, the Company has recorded future asset retirement obligations associated with the plugging and abandonment of natural gas storage wells in the Pipeline and Storage segment and the removal of asbestos and asbestos-containing material in various facilities in the Utility and Pipeline and Storage segments. Asset retirement obligation costs related to storage tanks have been recorded in the Utility, Pipeline and Storage, and Gathering segments. The Company has also recorded asset retirement obligations for certain costs connected with the retirement of the distribution mains, services and other components of the pipeline system in the Utility segment, the transmission mains and other components in the pipeline system in the Pipeline and Storage segment, and the gathering lines and other components in the Gathering segment. The retirement costs within the distribution, transmission and gathering systems are primarily for the capping and purging of pipe, which </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">are generally abandoned in place when retired, as well as for the clean-up of PCB contamination associated with the removal of certain pipe.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">During fiscal 2024, the Company experienced an increase in plugging and abandonment costs associated with the Exploration and Production segment&#8217;s natural gas wells and the Pipeline and Storage segment&#8217;s natural gas storage wells, which contributed to an increase in the asset retirement obligation.

The 2017 Rate Order provided for a return on equity of 8.7% and directed the implementation of an earnings sharing mechanism to be in place beginning on April 1, 2018.  On October 31, 2023, Distribution Corporation made a filing with the NYPSC seeking an increase of approximately $88&#160;million in its total annual operating revenues for the projected rate year ending September 30, 2025, with a proposed effective date of October 1, 2024. A Notice of Impending Settlement Negotiations was filed with the NYPSC on March 26, 2024. Thereafter, settlement discussions with parties commenced and to facilitate these discussions, the Company requested postponements of the evidentiary hearing and agreed to extensions of the suspension period for the effective date of new base delivery rates subject to a &#8220;make-whole&#8221; provision that would permit the Company to recover or refund any revenue under-collections or over-collections, respectively, resulting from the extension period.  The settlement negotiations were successful and resulted in a Joint Proposal (&#8220;JP&#8221;) that establishes a three-year rate plan allowing for an $86&#160;million increase in annual revenue requirement over three years, with the first-year impact of $57&#160;million in fiscal 2025 and the remainder in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2027. The JP settles all contested issues among the signatory parties and includes, among other things, a return on equity of 9.7%, a common equity ratio of 48% for rate setting purposes, an earnings sharing mechanism, an uncollectible expense tracker, and continuation of the Company&#8217;s leak prone pipe replacement program. The revenue requirement in the JP also includes the impact of negative pension/OPEB expense. The JP was filed with the NYPSC on September 9, 2024.  On November 14, 2024, the NYPSC issued an order extending the suspension period through December 31, 2024. That order also includes a &#8220;make-whole&#8221; provision from September 30, 2024 until the date new rates take effect under the final decision on the JP. </span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-indent:11.25pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Pennsylvania Jurisdiction</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On October 28, 2022, Distribution Corporation made a filing with the PaPUC seeking an increase in its annual base rate operating revenues of $28.1&#160;million.

House Bill 1342 was signed into law in Pennsylvania.  The law reduces the corporate income tax rate to 8.99% for fiscal 2024.  Starting with fiscal 2025, the rate is reduced by 0.5% annually until it reaches 4.99% for fiscal 2032.  Under GAAP, the tax effects of a change in tax law must be recognized in the period in which the law is enacted.  GAAP also requires deferred income tax assets and liabilities to be measured at the enacted tax rate expected to apply when temporary differences are to be realized or settled.  During fiscal 2022, the Company&#8217;s deferred income taxes were initially re-measured based upon the new tax rates.  For the Company&#8217;s non-rate regulated activities, the change in deferred income taxes was $28.4&#160;million as of the enactment date and was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense.  For the Company&#8217;s rate regulated activities, the reduction in deferred income taxes of $37.2&#160;million was recorded as a decrease to Recoverable Future Taxes of $19.8&#160;million and an increase to Taxes Refundable to Customers of $17.4&#160;million during the quarter ended September 30, 2022.  As the rate reduction occurs through fiscal 2032, an annual re-measurement will be made.  This amount is reflected in State Income Taxes.    </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On August 16, 2022, the &#8220;Inflation Reduction Act&#8221; (IRA) was signed into law.

for deferred tax assets, including net operating losses and tax credits, is recognized when it is more likely than not that some or all of the benefit from the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company, at each reporting date, assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including factors such as future taxable income, reversal of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies.  The Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of the realization of the deferred tax assets.  On June 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Seneca&#8217;s California oil and gas assets to Sentinel Peak Resources California, LLC.  As a result of the sale of the California oil and gas assets, the remaining deferred tax assets and valuation allowance of approximately $27.2&#160;million related to the California net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards were written off, as the Company determined that there was a remote possibility for use as the Company no longer has California operations.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the valuation allowance was adjusted because of the Pennsylvania corporate income tax rate change remeasurement described above and for current activity, for a cumulative adjustment of $5.5&#160;million.  In addition, the Company determined there was sufficient positive evidence, despite a prior history of subsidiary tax losses, to conclude that it was more likely than not that the remaining state deferred tax assets would be realized.  The conclusion was primarily related to the use of net operating losses in Pennsylvania in 2022 due to </span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">sustained strong operating results as well as the expectation for future forecasted earnings in Pennsylvania.  The sale of California assets also resulted in higher apportionment of income to Pennsylvania on a prospective basis, which further supported realization of existing Pennsylvania net operating loss deferred tax assets.  Accordingly, as of September 30, 2022, the Company reversed the remaining valuation allowance and recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $24.9&#160;million.  </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Regulatory liabilities representing the reduction of previously recorded deferred income taxes associated with rate-regulated activities that are expected to be refundable to customers amounted to $305.6 million and $268.6 million at September&#160;30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.  Also, regulatory assets representing future amounts collectible from customers, corresponding to additional deferred income taxes not previously recorded because of ratemaking practices, amounted to $80.1 million and $69.0 million at September&#160;30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company is in the Compliance Maintenance Phase of the IRS Compliance Assurance Process (&#8220;CAP&#8221;) for fiscal 2024.

The federal statute of limitations remains open for fiscal 2021 and later years.  The Company is also subject to various routine state income tax examinations.  The Company&#8217;s principal subsidiaries have state statutes of limitations that generally expire between three to four years from the date of filing of the income tax return.  Net operating losses being carried forward from prior years remain subject to examination on a future return until they are utilized, upon which time the statute of limitation begins.

The IRS released guidance on April 14, 2023, providing a natural gas transmission and distribution property safe harbor method of accounting (&#8220;NGSH method&#8221;) that taxpayers may use to determine whether expenses to repair, maintain, replace, or improve natural gas transmission and distribution property must be capitalized or be allowable as deductions for repairs.  The Company elected this change in tax accounting method for Distribution Corporation with its most recent consolidated tax return filing. The Company is planning to elect this same change in tax accounting method for Supply Corporation with its consolidated tax return filing in the upcoming year and has reflected an estimate in the September 30, 2024 financial statements of what is intended to be treated as a repair for tax purposes rather than being capitalized. That estimate has been recorded in Income Tax Expense.    </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"> </span></div><div

As of September&#160;30, 2024, unrecognized compensation expense related to performance shares totaled approximately $15.7 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years.

Total return on capital for a given company means the average of the Report Group companies&#8217; returns on capital for each twelve-month period corresponding to each of the Company&#8217;s fiscal years during the performance cycle, based on data reported for the Report Group companies in the Bloomberg database.  The number of these ROC performance shares that will vest and be paid will depend upon the Company&#8217;s performance relative to the Report Group and not upon the absolute level of return achieved by the Company.  The fair value of the ROC performance shares is calculated by multiplying the expected number of shares that will be issued by the average market price of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.

The Company&#8217;s Compensation Committee set specific target levels for methane intensity rates and total greenhouse gas emissions, and the performance goal is intended to incentivize and reward performance to the extent management achieves methane intensity and greenhouse gas reduction targets making progress towards the Company&#8217;s 2030 goals.  The number of these ESG performance shares that will vest and be paid out will depend upon the number of methane intensity segment targets achieved and whether the Company meets the total greenhouse gas emissions target. The fair value of these ESG performance shares is calculated by multiplying the expected number of shares that will be issued by the average market price of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.

Three-year (or five-year) total shareholder return for a given company will be based on the data reported for that company (with the starting and ending stock prices over the performance cycle calculated as the average closing stock price for the prior calendar month and with dividends reinvested in that company&#8217;s securities at each ex-dividend date) in the Bloomberg database.  The number of these TSR performance shares that will vest and be paid will depend upon the Company&#8217;s performance relative to the Report Group and not upon the absolute level of return achieved by the Company.  The fair value price at the date of grant for the TSR performance shares is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation technique, which includes a reduction in value for the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.  This price is multiplied by the number of TSR performance shares awarded, the result of which is recorded as compensation expense over the vesting term of the award.  In calculating the fair value of the award, the risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of a Treasury Note with a term commensurate with the remaining term of the TSR performance shares. The remaining term is based on the remainder of the performance cycle as of the date of grant.  The expected volatility is based on historical daily stock price returns.  For the TSR performance shares, it was assumed that there would be no forfeitures, based on the vesting term and the number of grantees.  The following weighted average assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of the TSR performance shares at the date of grant:</span></div><div style="margin-top:2pt;text-align:center"><table

At September 30, 2024, the Company&#8217;s debt to capitalization ratio, as calculated under the Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement was 0.47.

If the Company is not able to maintain investment grade credit ratings, it may not be able to access commercial paper markets. However, the Company expects that it could borrow under its credit facilities or rely upon other liquidity sources.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement each contain a cross-default provision whereby the failure by the Company or its significant subsidiaries to make payments under other borrowing arrangements, or the occurrence of certain events affecting those other borrowing arrangements, could trigger an obligation to repay any amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement or Term Loan Agreement, as applicable. In particular, a repayment obligation could be triggered if (i)&#160;the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries fails to make a payment when due of any principal or interest on any other indebtedness aggregating $40.0 million or more or (ii)&#160;an event occurs that causes, or would permit the holders of any other indebtedness aggregating $40.0 million or more to cause, such indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s present liquidity position is believed to be adequate to satisfy known demands. In order to issue incremental long-term debt, the Company must meet an interest coverage test under its existing indenture covenants. In general, the Company&#8217;s operating income, subject to certain adjustments, over a consecutive 12-month period within the 15 months preceding the debt issuance, must be not less than two times the total annual interest charges on the Company&#8217;s long-term debt, taking into account the incremental issuance.  In addition, taking into account the incremental issuance, and using a pro forma balance sheet as of the last day of the 12-month period used in the interest coverage test, the Company must maintain a ratio of long-term debt to consolidated assets (as defined under the indenture) of not more than 60%. Under the Company&#8217;s 1974 indenture, given the impairments of exploration and production properties the Company recognized during the year ended September 30, 2024, the indenture covenants would preclude the Company from issuing incremental long-term debt beginning January 2025, for a period likely extending to June 2025, when the remaining debt outstanding under the 1974 indenture matures. The indenture covenants do not, however, prevent the Company from issuing new long-term debt to replace existing long-term debt, including borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement, or from issuing additional short-term debt. Please refer to Part II, Item 7, Critical Accounting Estimates section above for a sensitivity analysis concerning commodity price changes and their impact on the ceiling test.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As of September 30, 2024, the Company has $50.0&#160;million in principal and $3.2&#160;million in interest payments remaining related to long-term debt issued under the 1974 indenture. Currently, the Company does not anticipate a need to issue incremental long-term debt and only has plans for new long-term debt to replace maturing long-term debt. To the extent a need arises to issue incremental long-term debt, the Company expects to be able to place future principal and interest payments in trust for the benefit of bondholders pursuant to the terms of the 1974 indenture. Depositing the future principal and interest payments in trust would effectively relieve the Company from its obligations to comply with the 1974 indenture&#8217;s restrictions, including those on the issuance of incremental long-term debt.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">In addition to the covenants noted above, the Company&#8217;s 1974 indenture contains a cross-default provision whereby the failure by the Company to perform certain obligations under other borrowing arrangements could trigger an obligation to repay the debt outstanding under the indenture. In particular, a repayment obligation could be triggered if the Company fails (i)&#160;to pay any scheduled principal or interest on any debt under any other indenture or agreement, or (ii)&#160;to perform any other term in any other such indenture or agreement, and the effect of the failure causes, or would permit the holders of the debt to cause, the debt under such indenture or agreement to become due prior to its stated maturity, unless cured or waived.</span></div><span></span>

Those inputs are prioritized into three levels. Level&#160;1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date.  Level&#160;2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level&#160;1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly at the measurement date. Level&#160;3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company&#8217;s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The following table sets forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company&#8217;s financial assets and liabilities (as applicable) that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September&#160;30, 2024 and 2023.  Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt"><table

Access project described herein. Substantial litigation ensued over the next several years concerning various federal and state authorizations for the project, with the majority of project development activities suspended pending resolution. These legal actions included, most recently, an appeal of FERC&#8217;s June 2022 order granting Supply Corporation and Empire an extension of time to construct the project through December 31, 2024.  In March 2024, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued an order affirming FERC&#8217;s extension of time, with such order final as of late June 2024.  Upon resolution of the extensive litigation, Supply Corporation and Empire began to assess next steps for the project, including a review of the status of necessary federal and state authorizations, as well as potential changes in expected capital expenditures and the related transportation rates </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">that Supply Corporation and Empire needed to support the project. As a result of this review, and in accordance with the precedent agreements between the respective parties, Supply Corporation and Empire sent notifications to Seneca, the sole shipper for the project, indicating their intent to increase the project&#8217;s firm transportation rates to account for the anticipated increase in capital expenditures to complete the project. Upon receipt, Seneca indicated it was unwilling to accept the revised transportation rates and intended to terminate the precedent agreements for the project. The precedent agreements were subsequently terminated on October 16, 2024. Accordingly, the Company will no longer pursue construction of the Northern Access project and has taken an impairment charge of $46.1&#160;million at September 30, 2024.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Derivative Financial Instruments</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:5pt;margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">At September 30, 2024, the derivative financial instruments reported in Level&#160;2 consist of natural gas price swap agreements, natural gas no cost collars, and foreign currency contracts, all of which are used in the Company&#8217;s Exploration and Production segment.  The fair value of the Level 2 price swap agreements and no cost collars is based on an internal cash flow model that uses observable inputs (i.e. SOFR based discount rates for the price swap agreements and basis differential information, if applicable, at active natural gas trading markets).

To assess nonperformance risk, the Company considered information such as any applicable collateral posted, master netting arrangements, and applied a market-based method by using the counterparty&#8217;s (assuming the derivative is in a gain position) or the Company&#8217;s (assuming the derivative is in a loss position) credit default swaps rates.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Derivative financial instruments reported in Level 2 at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 also includes the contingent consideration associated with the sale of the Exploration and Production segment&#8217;s California assets on June 30, 2022, which is discussed at Note B &#8212; Asset Acquisitions and Divestitures</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"> </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">and at Note&#160;J&#160;&#8212; Financial Instruments.

The Company enters into over-the-counter no cost collar and swap agreements for natural gas to manage the price risk associated with forecasted sales of natural gas.  In addition, the Company also enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage the risk of currency fluctuations associated with transportation costs denominated in Canadian currency in the Exploration and Production segment. These instruments are accounted for as cash flow hedges.  The duration of the Company&#8217;s cash flow hedges does not typically exceed 5 years while the foreign currency forward contracts do not exceed 6 years.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">On June 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Seneca&#8217;s California assets. The terms of the purchase and sale agreement specified that the Company could receive up to three annual contingent payments between calendar year 2023 and calendar year 2025, not to exceed $10&#160;million per year, with the amount of each annual payment calculated as $1.0&#160;million for each $1 per barrel that the ICE Brent Average for each calendar year exceeds $95 per barrel up to $105 per barrel.  The calendar 2023 contingency period expired with the ICE Brent Average falling below $95 per barrel. The Company has determined that this contingent consideration meets the definition of a derivative under the authoritative accounting guidance.  Changes in the fair value of this contingent consideration are marked-to-market each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in Other Income (Deductions) on the Consolidated Statement of Income.  The fair value of this contingent consideration was estimated to be $0.7&#160;million and $7.3&#160;million at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.  A $6.6&#160;million mark-to-market adjustment to reduce the fair value of the contingent consideration was recorded during the year ended September 30, 2024.  </span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company has presented its net derivative assets and liabilities as &#8220;Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments&#8221; on its Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023. </span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-indent:11.25pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline">Cash Flow Hedges</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">For derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. </span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 349.4 Bcf of natural gas commodity derivative contracts (swaps and no cost collars) outstanding.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As of September 30, 2024, the Company was hedging a total of $51.2 million of forecasted transportation costs denominated in Canadian dollars with foreign currency forward contracts.  </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $55.8 million of net hedging gains after taxes included in the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) balance.

exposed to credit risk on any of the derivative financial instruments that are in a gain position. Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that the Company would incur as a result of nonperformance by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations. To mitigate such credit risk, management performs a credit check, and then on a quarterly basis monitors counterparty credit exposure. The majority of the Company&#8217;s counterparties are financial institutions and energy traders. The Company has over-the-counter swap positions, no cost collars and applicable foreign currency forward contracts with nineteen counterparties of which seventeen are in a net gain position.  On average, the Company had $5.1&#160;million of credit exposure per counterparty in a gain position at September 30, 2024.  The maximum credit exposure per counterparty in a gain position at September 30, 2024 was $18.9&#160;million.  As of September 30, 2024, no collateral was received from the counterparties by the Company. The Company&#8217;s gain position on such derivative financial instruments had not exceeded the established thresholds at which the counterparties would be required to post collateral, nor had the counterparties&#8217; credit ratings declined to levels at which the counterparties were required to post collateral.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">As of September 30, 2024, sixteen of the nineteen counterparties to the Company&#8217;s outstanding derivative financial contracts (specifically the over-the-counter swaps, over-the-counter no cost collars and applicable foreign currency forward contracts) had a common credit-risk related contingency feature. In the event the Company&#8217;s credit rating increases or falls below a certain threshold (applicable debt ratings), the available </span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">credit that could be extended to the Company when it is in a derivative financial liability position would either increase or decrease. A decline in the Company&#8217;s credit rating, in and of itself, would not cause the Company to be required to post or increase the level of its hedging collateral deposits (in the form of cash deposits, letters of credit or treasury debt instruments). If the Company&#8217;s outstanding derivative financial instrument contracts with a credit-risk contingency feature were in a liability position (or if the liability were larger) and/or the Company&#8217;s credit rating declined, then hedging collateral deposits or an increase to such deposits could be required. At September 30, 2024, the Company did not have any derivative financial instrument liabilities with a credit-risk related contingency feature according to the Company&#8217;s internal model (discussed in Note&#160;I&#160;&#8212; Fair Value Measurements). Depending on the movement of commodity prices in the future, it is possible that the Company&#8217;s derivative asset positions could swing into liability positions, at which point the Company could be required to post hedging collateral deposits.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Company&#8217;s requirement to post hedging collateral deposits and the Company&#8217;s right to receive hedging collateral deposits is based on the fair value determined by the Company&#8217;s counterparties, which may differ from the Company&#8217;s assessment of fair value.</span></div><span></span>

Certain non-collectively bargained employees hired after June&#160;30, 2003 and certain collectively bargained employees hired after October&#160;31, 2003 are eligible for a Retirement Savings Account benefit provided under the Company&#8217;s defined contribution Tax-Deferred Savings Plans.

Contributions to the VEBA trusts are tax deductible, subject to limitations contained in the Internal Revenue Code and regulations and are made to fund employees&#8217; other post-retirement benefits, as well as benefits as they are paid to current retirees. In addition, the Company has established 401(h) accounts for its other post-retirement benefits. They are separate accounts within the Retirement Plan trust used to pay retiree medical benefits for the associated participants in the Retirement Plan.

It is based upon subjective estimates of proved reserves only and attributes no value to categories of reserves other than proved reserves, such as probable or possible reserves, or to unproved acreage. Furthermore, in accordance with the SEC&#8217;s final rule on Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting, it is based on the unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period and costs adjusted only for existing contractual changes. It assumes an arbitrary discount rate of 10%. Thus, it gives no effect to future price and cost changes certain to occur under widely fluctuating political and economic conditions.</span></div><div

The allowance, the majority of which is in the Utility segment, is determined based on historical experience, the age of customer accounts, other specific information about customer accounts, and the economic and regulatory environment. Account balances have historically been written off against the allowance approximately twelve months after the account is final billed or when it is anticipated that the receivable will not be recovered.  However, final billings were suppressed in the Utility segment during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of state shut-off moratoriums. Those moratoriums were lifted in 2022 which allowed for the resumption of final billings during 2022, thereby resulting in higher amounts being written off in 2023 and 2024.<span></span>

The internal costs that are capitalized do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. The Company does not recognize any gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of properties unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves attributable to a cost center.  The Company&#8217;s capitalized costs relating to exploration and production activities, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization, were $2.3&#160;billion and $2.4 billion at September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The ceiling test, which is performed each quarter, determines a limit, or ceiling, on the amount of property acquisition, exploration and development costs that can be capitalized. The ceiling under this test represents (a)&#160;the present value of estimated future net cash flows, excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet, using a discount factor of 10%, which is computed by applying commodity pricing (as adjusted for hedging) to estimated future production of proved reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet, less estimated future expenditures, plus (b)&#160;the cost of unproved properties not being depleted, less (c)&#160;income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. The commodity prices used to calculate the full cost ceiling are based on an unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period. If capitalized costs, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization and related deferred income taxes, exceed the ceiling at the end of any quarter, a permanent non-cash impairment is required to be charged to earnings in that quarter.  The book value of the exploration and production properties exceeded the ceiling at September 30, 2024 as well as at June 30, 2024.  As such, the Company recognized non-cash, pre-tax ceiling test impairment charges in the Exploration and Production segment of $463.7&#160;million for the year ended September 30, 2024.  Deferred income tax benefits of $127.3&#160;million related to the non-cash impairment charges were also recognized for the year ended September 30, 2024.  In adjusting estimated future net cash flows for hedging under the ceiling test at September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, estimated future net cash flows were increased by $428.5 million, increased by $38.8 million and decreased by $1.0 billion, respectively.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The Exploration and Production segment also has items of property, plant and equipment that are accounted for outside of the provisions of the full cost method of accounting.

The Company follows authoritative guidance which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation cost at fair value for all share-based payments.  For all Company stock awards, forfeitures are recognized as they occur.</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Restricted stock units are subject to restrictions on vesting and transferability. Restricted stock units represent the right to receive shares of common stock of the Company (or the equivalent value in cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock of the Company, as determined by the Company) at the end of a specified time period. The restricted stock units do not entitle the participants to dividend and voting rights. The fair value at the date of grant of the restricted stock units (represented by the market value of Company common stock on the date of the award) must be reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award. The fair value of restricted stock units on the date of award is recorded as compensation expense over the vesting period.</span></div><div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Performance shares are an award constituting units denominated in common stock of the Company, the number of which may be adjusted over a performance cycle based upon the extent to which performance goals have been satisfied.  Earned performance shares may be distributed in the form of shares of common stock of the Company, an equivalent value in cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock of the Company, as determined by the Company.  The performance shares do not entitle the participant to receive dividends during the vesting period.  For performance shares based on a return on capital goal and greenhouse gas emissions reductions goal, the fair value at the date of grant of the performance shares is determined by multiplying the expected number of performance shares to be issued by the market value of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends.  For performance shares based on a total shareholder return goal, the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation technique to estimate the fair value price at the date of grant.</span></div><span></span>

Cash includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the customer may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. In addition, cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition.</p></div>

Such costs are capitalized if they meet both of the following criteria: a. It is probable that future revenue in an amount at least equal to the capitalized cost will result from inclusion of that cost in allowable costs for rate-making purposes. b. Based on available evidence, the future revenue will be provided to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost rather than to provide for expected levels of similar future costs. If the revenue will be provided through an automatic rate-adjustment clause, this criterion requires that the regulator's intent clearly be to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost.</p></div>

Such costs are capitalized if they meet both of the following criteria: a. It is probable that future revenue in an amount at least equal to the capitalized cost will result from inclusion of that cost in allowable costs for rate-making purposes. b. Based on available evidence, the future revenue will be provided to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost rather than to provide for expected levels of similar future costs. If the revenue will be provided through an automatic rate-adjustment clause, this criterion requires that the regulator's intent clearly be to permit recovery of the previously incurred cost.</p></div>

Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three-years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months.</p></div>

The allowance, the majority of which is in the Utility segment, is determined based on historical experience, the age of customer accounts, other specific information about customer accounts, and the economic and regulatory environment. Account balances have historically been written off against the allowance approximately twelve months after the account is final billed or when it is anticipated that the receivable will not be recovered.  However, final billings were suppressed in the Utility segment during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of state shut-off moratoriums. Those moratoriums were lifted in 2022 which allowed for the resumption of final billings during 2022, thereby resulting in higher amounts being written off in 2023 and 2024.

The WNA is designed to adjust the rates of retail customers to reflect the impact of deviations from normal weather.

Prior to October 2023, the Utility segment&#x2019;s Pennsylvania rate jurisdiction did not have a WNA, causing weather variations to have a direct impact on the Pennsylvania rate jurisdiction&#x2019;s revenues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The impact of weather normalized usage per customer account in the Utility segment&#x2019;s New York rate jurisdiction is tempered by a revenue decoupling mechanism. The effect of the revenue decoupling mechanism is to render the Company financially indifferent to throughput decreases resulting from conservation. Weather normalized usage per account that exceeds the average weather normalized usage per customer account results in a refund being credited to customers&#x2019; bills. Weather normalized usage per account that is below the average weather normalized usage per account results in a surcharge being added to customers&#x2019; bills. The surcharge or credit is calculated over a twelve-month period ending March&#160;31st, and applied to customer bills annually, beginning July&#160;1st.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;In the Pipeline and Storage segment, the allowed rates that Supply Corporation and Empire bill their customers are based on a straight fixed-variable rate design, which allows recovery of all fixed costs, including return on equity and income taxes, through fixed monthly reservation charges.

If the initial screening test is not met, the Company evaluates whether the set of activities is a business based on whether there are inputs and a substantive process in place. The definition of a business impacts whether the Company consolidates an acquisition under business combination guidance or asset acquisition guidance. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;When the Company acquires assets and liabilities deemed to be an asset acquisition, the fair value of the purchase consideration, including the transaction costs of the asset acquisition, is assumed to be equal to the fair value of the net assets acquired. The purchase consideration, including the transaction costs, is allocated to the individual assets and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. Transaction costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized as part of the costs of the group of assets acquired. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;When the Company acquires assets and liabilities deemed to be a business combination, the acquisition method is applied.

Transaction costs that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination, such as finders&#x2019; fees, legal fees, due diligence fees and other professional and consulting fees are expensed as incurred.         &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Property, Plant and Equipment&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;In the Company&#x2019;s Exploration and Production segment, property acquisition, exploration and development costs are capitalized under the full cost method of accounting. Under this methodology, all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized, including internal costs directly identified with acquisition, exploration and development activities. The internal costs that are capitalized do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. The Company does not recognize any gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of properties unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves attributable to a cost center.  The Company&#x2019;s capitalized costs relating to exploration and production activities, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization, were $2.3&#160;billion and $2.4 billion at September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.  For further discussion of capitalized costs, refer to Note N &#x2014; Supplementary Information for Exploration and Production Activities.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Capitalized costs are subject to the SEC full cost ceiling test. The ceiling test, which is performed each quarter, determines a limit, or ceiling, on the amount of property acquisition, exploration and development costs that can be capitalized. The ceiling under this test represents (a)&#160;the present value of estimated future net cash flows, excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet, using a discount factor of 10%, which is computed by applying commodity pricing (as adjusted for hedging) to estimated future production of proved reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet, less estimated future expenditures, plus (b)&#160;the cost of unproved properties not being depleted, less (c)&#160;income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. The commodity prices used to calculate the full cost ceiling are based on an unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period. If capitalized costs, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization and related deferred income taxes, exceed the ceiling at the end of any quarter, a permanent non-cash impairment is required to be charged to earnings in that quarter.  The book value of the exploration and production properties exceeded the ceiling at September 30, 2024 as well as at June 30, 2024.  As such, the Company recognized non-cash, pre-tax ceiling test impairment charges in the Exploration and Production segment of $463.7&#160;million for the year ended September 30, 2024.  Deferred income tax benefits of $127.3&#160;million related to the non-cash impairment charges were also recognized for the year ended September 30, 2024.  In adjusting estimated future net cash flows for hedging under the ceiling test at September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, estimated future net cash flows were increased by $428.5 million, increased by $38.8 million and decreased by $1.0 billion, respectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Exploration and Production segment also has items of property, plant and equipment that are accounted for outside of the provisions of the full cost method of accounting.  As discussed in Note&#160;I&#160;&#x2014; Fair Value Measurements, an impairment charge related to certain water disposal assets was recorded at September 30, 2024.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The principal assets of the Utility, Pipeline and Storage and Gathering segments, consisting primarily of gas distribution pipelines, transmission pipelines, storage facilities, gathering lines and compressor stations, are recorded at historical cost.  There were no indications of any impairments to property, plant and equipment in the Utility and Gathering segments at September 30, 2024. An impairment charge related to the Northern Access Project, which is discussed at Note&#160;I&#160;&#x2014; Fair Value Measurements, was recorded in the Pipeline and Storage segment at September 30, 2024. The impairment charge reduced the value of certain assets recorded in Property, Plant and Equipment and Deferred Charges on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Maintenance and repairs of property and replacements of minor items of property are charged directly to maintenance expense. The original cost of the regulated subsidiaries&#x2019; property, plant and equipment retired, and the cost of removal less salvage, are charged to accumulated depreciation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;&#160;Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;For exploration and production properties, depreciation, depletion and amortization is computed based on quantities produced in relation to proved reserves using the units of production method. The cost of unproved exploration and production properties is excluded from this computation.  Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for exploration and production properties was $270.6 million, $235.7 million and $202.4 million for the years ended September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  For all other property, plant and equipment, depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method in amounts sufficient to recover costs over the estimated useful lives of property in service.

The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with the current authoritative guidance, which requires the Company to test goodwill for impairment annually.  At September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the fair value of Empire was greater than its book value. As such, the goodwill was not considered impaired at those dates. Going back to the origination of the goodwill in 2003, the Company has never recorded an impairment of its goodwill balance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Financial Instruments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company uses a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage a portion of the market risk associated with fluctuations in the price of natural gas and to manage a portion of the risk of currency &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;fluctuations associated with transportation costs denominated in Canadian currency. These instruments include natural gas price swap agreements and no cost collars and foreign currency forward contracts. The Company accounts for these instruments as cash flow hedges for which the fair value of the instrument is recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either an asset or a liability labeled Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments.

The gain or loss recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) remains there until the hedged transaction occurs, at which point the gains or losses are reclassified to operating revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For purposes of determining earnings per common share, the potentially dilutive securities the Company had outstanding during fiscal 2024, 2023 and/or 2022 were restricted stock units, performance shares and SARs.  For fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the diluted weighted average shares outstanding shown on the Consolidated Statements of Income reflects the potential dilution as a result of these securities as determined using the Treasury Stock Method.  Restricted stock units, performance shares and SARs that are antidilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share.  There were 569 securities, 3,888 securities and 2,858 securities excluded as being antidilutive for the years ended September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Share Repurchases&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company considers all shares repurchased as cancelled shares restored to the status of authorized but unissued shares, in accordance with New Jersey law.

Restricted stock units represent the right to receive shares of common stock of the Company (or the equivalent value in cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock of the Company, as determined by the Company) at the end of a specified time period. The restricted stock units do not entitle the participants to dividend and voting rights. The fair value at the date of grant of the restricted stock units (represented by the market value of Company common stock on the date of the award) must be reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.

Earned performance shares may be distributed in the form of shares of common stock of the Company, an equivalent value in cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock of the Company, as determined by the Company.  The performance shares do not entitle the participant to receive dividends during the vesting period.  For performance shares based on a return on capital goal and greenhouse gas emissions reductions goal, the fair value at the date of grant of the performance shares is determined by multiplying the expected number of performance shares to be issued by the market value of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends.  For performance shares based on a total shareholder return goal, the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation technique to estimate the fair value price at the date of grant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Refer to Note&#160;H&#160;&#x2014; Capitalization and Short-Term Borrowings under the heading &#x201c;Stock Award Plans&#x201d; for additional disclosures related to stock-based compensation awards for all plans.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:SignificantAccountingPoliciesTextBlock>

The allowance, the majority of which is in the Utility segment, is determined based on historical experience, the age of customer accounts, other specific information about customer accounts, and the economic and regulatory environment. Account balances have historically been written off against the allowance approximately twelve months after the account is final billed or when it is anticipated that the receivable will not be recovered.  However, final billings were suppressed in the Utility segment during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of state shut-off moratoriums. Those moratoriums were lifted in 2022 which allowed for the resumption of final billings during 2022, thereby resulting in higher amounts being written off in 2023 and 2024.</us-gaap:TradeAndOtherAccountsReceivablePolicy>

Differences between amounts currently recoverable and actual adjustment clause revenues, as well as other price changes and pipeline and storage company refunds not yet includable in adjustment clause rates, are deferred and accounted for as either unrecovered purchased gas costs or amounts payable to customers. Such amounts are generally recovered from (or passed back to) customers during the following fiscal year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Estimated refund liabilities to ratepayers represent management&#x2019;s current estimate of such refunds.

Amounts calculated under the tracker that are in excess of the annual amount that can be billed to the ratepayer are deferred as a regulatory asset per commission authorization. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The impact of weather on revenues in the Utility segment&#x2019;s New York rate jurisdiction is tempered by a WNA, which covers the eight-month period from October through May. The WNA is designed to adjust the rates of retail customers to reflect the impact of deviations from normal weather. Weather that is warmer than normal results in a surcharge being added to customers&#x2019; current bills, while weather that is colder than normal results in a refund being credited to customers&#x2019; current bills. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;On June 15, 2023, the PaPUC approved the Utility segment&#x2019;s Pennsylvania rate jurisdiction&#x2019;s use of a WNA as a five-year pilot program. The program became effective October 2023 and covers the eight-month period from October through May.  Prior to October 2023, the Utility segment&#x2019;s Pennsylvania rate jurisdiction did not have a WNA, causing weather variations to have a direct impact on the Pennsylvania rate jurisdiction&#x2019;s revenues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The impact of weather normalized usage per customer account in the Utility segment&#x2019;s New York rate jurisdiction is tempered by a revenue decoupling mechanism. The effect of the revenue decoupling mechanism is to render the Company financially indifferent to throughput decreases resulting from conservation. Weather normalized usage per account that exceeds the average weather normalized usage per customer account results in a refund being credited to customers&#x2019; bills. Weather normalized usage per account that is below the average weather normalized usage per account results in a surcharge being added to customers&#x2019; bills. The surcharge or credit is calculated over a twelve-month period ending March&#160;31st, and applied to customer bills annually, beginning July&#160;1st.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;In the Pipeline and Storage segment, the allowed rates that Supply Corporation and Empire bill their customers are based on a straight fixed-variable rate design, which allows recovery of all fixed costs, including return on equity and income taxes, through fixed monthly reservation charges. Because of this rate design, changes in throughput due to weather variations do not have a significant impact on the revenues of Supply Corporation or Empire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</nfg:RegulatoryMechanismsPolicyTextBlock>

Transaction costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized as part of the costs of the group of assets acquired. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;When the Company acquires assets and liabilities deemed to be a business combination, the acquisition method is applied. Goodwill is measured as the fair value of the consideration transferred less the net recognized fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, all measured at the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;acquisition date. Transaction costs that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination, such as finders&#x2019; fees, legal fees, due diligence fees and other professional and consulting fees are expensed as incurred.</us-gaap:BusinessCombinationsPolicy>

Under this methodology, all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized, including internal costs directly identified with acquisition, exploration and development activities. The internal costs that are capitalized do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. The Company does not recognize any gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of properties unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves attributable to a cost center.  The Company&#x2019;s capitalized costs relating to exploration and production activities, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization, were $2.3&#160;billion and $2.4 billion at September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.  For further discussion of capitalized costs, refer to Note N &#x2014; Supplementary Information for Exploration and Production Activities.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Capitalized costs are subject to the SEC full cost ceiling test. The ceiling test, which is performed each quarter, determines a limit, or ceiling, on the amount of property acquisition, exploration and development costs that can be capitalized. The ceiling under this test represents (a)&#160;the present value of estimated future net cash flows, excluding future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet, using a discount factor of 10%, which is computed by applying commodity pricing (as adjusted for hedging) to estimated future production of proved reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet, less estimated future expenditures, plus (b)&#160;the cost of unproved properties not being depleted, less (c)&#160;income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. The commodity prices used to calculate the full cost ceiling are based on an unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period. If capitalized costs, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization and related deferred income taxes, exceed the ceiling at the end of any quarter, a permanent non-cash impairment is required to be charged to earnings in that quarter.  The book value of the exploration and production properties exceeded the ceiling at September 30, 2024 as well as at June 30, 2024.  As such, the Company recognized non-cash, pre-tax ceiling test impairment charges in the Exploration and Production segment of $463.7&#160;million for the year ended September 30, 2024.  Deferred income tax benefits of $127.3&#160;million related to the non-cash impairment charges were also recognized for the year ended September 30, 2024.  In adjusting estimated future net cash flows for hedging under the ceiling test at September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, estimated future net cash flows were increased by $428.5 million, increased by $38.8 million and decreased by $1.0 billion, respectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Exploration and Production segment also has items of property, plant and equipment that are accounted for outside of the provisions of the full cost method of accounting.  As discussed in Note&#160;I&#160;&#x2014; Fair Value Measurements, an impairment charge related to certain water disposal assets was recorded at September 30, 2024.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The principal assets of the Utility, Pipeline and Storage and Gathering segments, consisting primarily of gas distribution pipelines, transmission pipelines, storage facilities, gathering lines and compressor stations, are recorded at historical cost.  There were no indications of any impairments to property, plant and equipment in the Utility and Gathering segments at September 30, 2024. An impairment charge related to the Northern Access Project, which is discussed at Note&#160;I&#160;&#x2014; Fair Value Measurements, was recorded in the Pipeline and Storage segment at September 30, 2024. The impairment charge reduced the value of certain assets recorded in Property, Plant and Equipment and Deferred Charges on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Maintenance and repairs of property and replacements of minor items of property are charged directly to maintenance expense.

The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with the current authoritative guidance, which requires the Company to test goodwill for impairment annually.  At September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the fair value of Empire was greater than its book value. As such, the goodwill was not considered impaired at those dates. Going back to the origination of the goodwill in 2003, the Company has never recorded an impairment of its goodwill balance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:GoodwillAndIntangibleAssetsPolicyTextBlock>

Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For purposes of determining earnings per common share, the potentially dilutive securities the Company had outstanding during fiscal 2024, 2023 and/or 2022 were restricted stock units, performance shares and SARs.  For fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the diluted weighted average shares outstanding shown on the Consolidated Statements of Income reflects the potential dilution as a result of these securities as determined using the Treasury Stock Method.

The restricted stock units do not entitle the participants to dividend and voting rights. The fair value at the date of grant of the restricted stock units (represented by the market value of Company common stock on the date of the award) must be reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.

Earned performance shares may be distributed in the form of shares of common stock of the Company, an equivalent value in cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock of the Company, as determined by the Company.  The performance shares do not entitle the participant to receive dividends during the vesting period.  For performance shares based on a return on capital goal and greenhouse gas emissions reductions goal, the fair value at the date of grant of the performance shares is determined by multiplying the expected number of performance shares to be issued by the market value of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends.  For performance shares based on a total shareholder return goal, the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation technique to estimate the fair value price at the date of grant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:CompensationRelatedCostsPolicyTextBlock>

The Company pursued this sale given the strong commodity price environment and the Company&#x2019;s strategic focus in the Appalachian Basin.  Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, the Company can receive up to three annual contingent payments between calendar year 2023 and calendar year 2025, not to exceed $10&#160;million per year, with the amount of each annual payment calculated as $1.0&#160;million for each $1 per barrel that the ICE Brent Average for each calendar year exceeds $95 per barrel up to $105 per barrel.  The sale price, which reflected an effective date of April 1, 2022, was reduced for production revenues less expenses that were retained by Seneca from the effective date to the closing date.  Under the full cost method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties, $220.7&#160;million of the sale price at closing was accounted for as reduction of capitalized costs since the disposition did not alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas attributable to the cost center.  The remainder of the sale price ($32.8&#160;million) was applied against assets that are not subject to the full cost method of accounting, with the Company recognizing a gain of $12.7&#160;million on the sale of such assets.  The majority of this gain related to the sale of emission allowances.  The Company also eliminated the asset retirement obligation associated with Seneca&#x2019;s California oil and gas assets.  This obligation amounted to $50.1&#160;million and was accounted for as a reduction of capitalized costs under the full cost method of accounting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</nfg:AssetAcquisitionsAndDivestituresTextBlock>

Prior to the completion of the sale of the Company&#x2019;s California assets on June 30, 2022, natural gas production occurred primarily in the Appalachian region of the United States and crude oil production occurred primarily in the West Coast region of the United States. Subsequent to June 30, 2022, substantially all Exploration and Production segment production consists of natural gas production from the Appalachian region of the United States.  If a production imbalance occurs between what was supposed to be delivered to a pipeline and what was actually produced and delivered, the Company accrues the difference as an imbalance.&#160; The sales contracts generally require the Company to deliver a specific quantity of a commodity per day for a specific number of days at a price that is either fixed or variable and considers the delivery of each unit (MMBtu or Bbl) to be a separate performance obligation that is satisfied upon delivery.&#160;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The transaction price for the sale of natural gas, oil and NGLs is contractually agreed upon based on prevailing market pricing (primarily tied to a market index with certain adjustments based on factors such as delivery location and prevailing supply and demand conditions) or fixed pricing.&#160; The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on the basis of the relative standalone selling price of each distinct unit sold.  Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the transfer of the commodity occurs at the delivery point per the contract.

Customers secure their own gas supply and the Pipeline and Storage segment provides transportation and/or storage services to move the customer-supplied gas to the intended location, including injections into or withdrawals from the storage field.  This performance obligation is satisfied over time.  The rate design for the Pipeline and Storage segment&#x2019;s customers generally includes a combination of volumetric or commodity charges as well as monthly &#x201c;fixed&#x201d; charges (including charges commonly referred to as capacity charges, demand charges, or reservation charges).  These types of fixed charges represent compensation for standing ready over the period of the month to deliver quantities of gas, regardless of whether the customer takes delivery of any quantity of gas.  The performance obligation under these circumstances is satisfied based on the passage of time and meter reads, if applicable, which correlates to the period for which the charges are eligible to be invoiced.  The amount billable, as determined by the meter read and the &#x201c;fixed&#x201d; monthly charge, indicates the value to the customer, and is used for revenue recognition purposes by the Pipeline and Storage segment as specified by the &#x201c;invoice practical expedient&#x201d; (the amount that the Pipeline and Storage segment has the right to invoice) under the authoritative guidance for revenue recognition.

The Gathering segment&#x2019;s primary performance obligation is to deliver gathered natural gas volumes from Seneca&#x2019;s wells, and to a lesser extent, other producers&#x2019; wells, into interstate pipelines at contractually agreed upon per unit rates.  This obligation is satisfied over time.  The performance obligation is satisfied based on the passage of time and meter reads, which correlates to the period for which the charges are eligible to be invoiced.

Natural gas sales and transportation services are provided largely to residential, commercial and industrial customers.  The Utility segment&#x2019;s performance obligation to its customers is to deliver natural gas, an obligation which is satisfied over time.  This obligation generally remains in effect as long as the customer consumes the natural gas provided by the Utility segment.  The Utility segment recognizes &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;revenue when it satisfies its performance obligation by delivering natural gas to the customer.  Natural gas is delivered and consumed by the customer simultaneously.  The satisfaction of the performance obligation is measured by the turn of the meter dial.  The amount billable, as determined by the meter read and the tariff-based rate, indicates the value to the customer, and is used for revenue recognition purposes by the Utility segment as specified by the &#x201c;invoice practical expedient&#x201d; (the amount that the Utility segment has the right to invoice) under the authoritative guidance for revenue recognition.  Since the Utility segment bills its customers in cycles having billing dates that do not generally coincide with the end of a calendar month, a receivable is recorded for natural gas delivered but not yet billed to customers based on an estimate of the amount of natural gas delivered between the last meter reading date and the end of the accounting period.  Such receivables are a component of Unbilled Revenue on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The Utility segment&#x2019;s tariffs allow customers to utilize budget billing.  In this situation, since the amount billed may differ from the amount of natural gas delivered to the customer in any given month, revenue is recognized monthly based on the amount of natural gas consumed.  The differential between the amount billed and the amount consumed is recorded as a component of Receivables or Customer Advances on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  All receivables or advances related to budget billing are settled within one year.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Utility Segment Alternative Revenue Programs&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;As indicated in the revenue table shown above, the Company&#x2019;s Utility segment has alternative revenue programs that are excluded from the scope of the authoritative guidance regarding revenue recognition.  The NYPSC has authorized alternative revenue programs that are designed to mitigate the impact that weather and conservation have on margin.  The NYPSC and PaPUC have also authorized additional alternative revenue programs that adjust billings for the effects of broad external factors or to compensate the Company for demand-side management initiatives.  These alternative revenue programs primarily allow the Company and customer to share in variances from imputed margins due to migration of transportation customers, allow for adjustments to the gas cost recovery mechanism for fluctuations in uncollectible expenses associated with gas costs, and allow the Company to pass on to customers costs associated with customer energy efficiency programs.  In general, revenue is adjusted monthly for these programs and is collected from or passed back to customers within 24 months of the annual reconciliation period.</us-gaap:RevenueFromContractWithCustomerTextBlock>

Renewal options are included in the lease term if they are reasonably certain to be exercised.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Significant Judgments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline"&gt;Lease Identification&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company uses judgment when determining whether or not an arrangement is or contains a lease.  A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to use an explicitly or implicitly identified asset that is physically distinct and the Company has the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time.  When determining right of control, the Company evaluates whether it directs the use of the asset and obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline"&gt;Discount Rate&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company uses a discount rate to calculate the present value of lease payments in order to determine lease classification and measurement of the lease asset and liability.  In the absence of a rate of interest that is readily determinable in the contract, the Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate (IBR) for each lease.  The IBR reflects the rate of interest that the Company would pay on the lease commencement date to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term in similar economic environments. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline"&gt;Firm Transportation and Storage Contracts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company&#x2019;s subsidiaries enter into long-term arrangements to both reserve firm transportation capacity on third party pipelines and provide firm transportation and storage services to third party shippers.  The Company&#x2019;s firm capacity contracts with third party shippers do not provide rights to use substantially all of the underlying pipeline or storage asset.  As such, the Company has concluded that these arrangements are not leases under the authoritative guidance. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline"&gt;Gas Leases&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The authoritative guidance does not apply to leases to explore for or use natural gas resources, including the right to explore for those resources and rights to use the land in which those resources are contained.  As such, the Company has concluded that its gas exploration and production leases and gas storage leases are not leases under the authoritative guidance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Amounts Recognized in the Financial Statements&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Operating lease costs, excluding those relating to drilling rig leases that are capitalized as part of exploration and production properties under the full cost method of accounting as well as certain equipment leases related to construction projects, are presented in Operations and Maintenance expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income.

An asset retirement obligation is defined as a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset in which the timing and/or method of settlement may or may not be conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes the estimated cost of retiring the asset as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is adjusted to its present value each period and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. The Company estimates the fair value of its asset retirement obligations based on the discounting of expected cash flows using various estimates, assumptions and judgments regarding certain factors such as the existence of a legal obligation for an asset retirement obligation; estimated amounts and timing of settlements; the credit-adjusted risk-free rate to be used; and inflation rates. Asset retirement obligations incurred in the current period were Level&#160;3 fair value measurements as the inputs used to measure the fair value are unobservable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company has recorded an asset retirement obligation representing plugging and abandonment costs associated with the Exploration and Production segment&#x2019;s natural gas wells and has capitalized such costs in property, plant and equipment (i.e. the full cost pool). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;In addition to the asset retirement obligation recorded in the Exploration and Production segment, the Company has recorded future asset retirement obligations associated with the plugging and abandonment of natural gas storage wells in the Pipeline and Storage segment and the removal of asbestos and asbestos-containing material in various facilities in the Utility and Pipeline and Storage segments. Asset retirement obligation costs related to storage tanks have been recorded in the Utility, Pipeline and Storage, and Gathering segments. The Company has also recorded asset retirement obligations for certain costs connected with the retirement of the distribution mains, services and other components of the pipeline system in the Utility segment, the transmission mains and other components in the pipeline system in the Pipeline and Storage segment, and the gathering lines and other components in the Gathering segment. The retirement costs within the distribution, transmission and gathering systems are primarily for the capping and purging of pipe, which &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;are generally abandoned in place when retired, as well as for the clean-up of PCB contamination associated with the removal of certain pipe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;During fiscal 2024, the Company experienced an increase in plugging and abandonment costs associated with the Exploration and Production segment&#x2019;s natural gas wells and the Pipeline and Storage segment&#x2019;s natural gas storage wells, which contributed to an increase in the asset retirement obligation. This increase in plugging and abandonment costs is the primary component of the Revision of Estimates amount for fiscal 2024 shown in the table below.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;As discussed in Note B &#x2014; Asset Acquisitions and Divestitures, on June 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Seneca&#x2019;s California oil and gas assets to Sentinel Peak Resources California LLC.  With the divestiture of these assets, the Company reduced its Asset Retirement Obligation at June 30, 2022 by $50.1&#160;million.  This reduction is reflected in Liabilities Settled in the table below.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span

The 2017 Rate Order provided for a return on equity of 8.7% and directed the implementation of an earnings sharing mechanism to be in place beginning on April 1, 2018.  On October 31, 2023, Distribution Corporation made a filing with the NYPSC seeking an increase of approximately $88&#160;million in its total annual operating revenues for the projected rate year ending September 30, 2025, with a proposed effective date of October 1, 2024. A Notice of Impending Settlement Negotiations was filed with the NYPSC on March 26, 2024. Thereafter, settlement discussions with parties commenced and to facilitate these discussions, the Company requested postponements of the evidentiary hearing and agreed to extensions of the suspension period for the effective date of new base delivery rates subject to a &#x201c;make-whole&#x201d; provision that would permit the Company to recover or refund any revenue under-collections or over-collections, respectively, resulting from the extension period.  The settlement negotiations were successful and resulted in a Joint Proposal (&#x201c;JP&#x201d;) that establishes a three-year rate plan allowing for an $86&#160;million increase in annual revenue requirement over three years, with the first-year impact of $57&#160;million in fiscal 2025 and the remainder in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2027. The JP settles all contested issues among the signatory parties and includes, among other things, a return on equity of 9.7%, a common equity ratio of 48% for rate setting purposes, an earnings sharing mechanism, an uncollectible expense tracker, and continuation of the Company&#x2019;s leak prone pipe replacement program. The revenue requirement in the JP also includes the impact of negative pension/OPEB expense. The JP was filed with the NYPSC on September 9, 2024.  On November 14, 2024, the NYPSC issued an order extending the suspension period through December 31, 2024. That order also includes a &#x201c;make-whole&#x201d; provision from September 30, 2024 until the date new rates take effect under the final decision on the JP. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Pennsylvania Jurisdiction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;On October 28, 2022, Distribution Corporation made a filing with the PaPUC seeking an increase in its annual base rate operating revenues of $28.1&#160;million.  A settlement involving all active parties to the proceeding was reached and filed with the PaPUC on April 13, 2023. The settlement provided for, among other things, an increase in Distribution Corporation&#x2019;s annual base rate operating revenues of $23&#160;million.

If approved as filed, the Company will be able to recover costs associated with plant placed in service on and after August 1, 2024 if its total plant in service exceeds approximately $781.3&#160;million and its quarterly rate of return does not exceed the authorized PaPUC rate of return. As of September 30, 2024, plant placed in service for Distribution Corporation&#x2019;s Pennsylvania division was $785.2&#160;million.

As well, any party can make a filing under NGA Section 5.  Supply Corporation has no rate case currently on file.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt; Empire&#x2019;s 2019 rate settlement requires a Section 4 rate case filing no later than May 1, 2025.

2022, House Bill 1342 was signed into law in Pennsylvania.  The law reduces the corporate income tax rate to 8.99% for fiscal 2024.  Starting with fiscal 2025, the rate is reduced by 0.5% annually until it reaches 4.99% for fiscal 2032.  Under GAAP, the tax effects of a change in tax law must be recognized in the period in which the law is enacted.  GAAP also requires deferred income tax assets and liabilities to be measured at the enacted tax rate expected to apply when temporary differences are to be realized or settled.  During fiscal 2022, the Company&#x2019;s deferred income taxes were initially re-measured based upon the new tax rates.  For the Company&#x2019;s non-rate regulated activities, the change in deferred income taxes was $28.4&#160;million as of the enactment date and was recorded as a reduction to income tax expense.  For the Company&#x2019;s rate regulated activities, the reduction in deferred income taxes of $37.2&#160;million was recorded as a decrease to Recoverable Future Taxes of $19.8&#160;million and an increase to Taxes Refundable to Customers of $17.4&#160;million during the quarter ended September 30, 2022.  As the rate reduction occurs through fiscal 2032, an annual re-measurement will be made.  This amount is reflected in State Income Taxes.    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;On August 16, 2022, the &#x201c;Inflation Reduction Act&#x201d; (IRA) was signed into law.  The IRA, among other things, includes provisions to expand energy incentives, impose a corporate minimum tax, and impose an excise tax on corporate stock buybacks.  The provisions of the IRA did not have a material impact on the accompanying financial statements, although some of the provisions may be applicable in future years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Total income taxes as reported differ from the amounts that were computed by applying the federal income tax rate to income before income taxes.

allowance for deferred tax assets, including net operating losses and tax credits, is recognized when it is more likely than not that some or all of the benefit from the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company, at each reporting date, assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including factors such as future taxable income, reversal of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies.  The Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of the realization of the deferred tax assets.  On June 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Seneca&#x2019;s California oil and gas assets to Sentinel Peak Resources California, LLC.  As a result of the sale of the California oil and gas assets, the remaining deferred tax assets and valuation allowance of approximately $27.2&#160;million related to the California net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards were written off, as the Company determined that there was a remote possibility for use as the Company no longer has California operations.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the valuation allowance was adjusted because of the Pennsylvania corporate income tax rate change remeasurement described above and for current activity, for a cumulative adjustment of $5.5&#160;million.  In addition, the Company determined there was sufficient positive evidence, despite a prior history of subsidiary tax losses, to conclude that it was more likely than not that the remaining state deferred tax assets would be realized.  The conclusion was primarily related to the use of net operating losses in Pennsylvania in 2022 due to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;sustained strong operating results as well as the expectation for future forecasted earnings in Pennsylvania.  The sale of California assets also resulted in higher apportionment of income to Pennsylvania on a prospective basis, which further supported realization of existing Pennsylvania net operating loss deferred tax assets.  Accordingly, as of September 30, 2022, the Company reversed the remaining valuation allowance and recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $24.9&#160;million.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Regulatory liabilities representing the reduction of previously recorded deferred income taxes associated with rate-regulated activities that are expected to be refundable to customers amounted to $305.6 million and $268.6 million at September&#160;30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.  Also, regulatory assets representing future amounts collectible from customers, corresponding to additional deferred income taxes not previously recorded because of ratemaking practices, amounted to $80.1 million and $69.0 million at September&#160;30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company is in the Compliance Maintenance Phase of the IRS Compliance Assurance Process (&#x201c;CAP&#x201d;) for fiscal 2024.  The CAP program is intended for taxpayers with a low risk of non-compliance who are cooperative and transparent with few, if any, material issues that require resolution.  The federal statute of limitations remains open for fiscal 2021 and later years.  The Company is also subject to various routine state income tax examinations.  The Company&#x2019;s principal subsidiaries have state statutes of limitations that generally expire between three to four years from the date of filing of the income tax return.  Net operating losses being carried forward from prior years remain subject to examination on a future return until they are utilized, upon which time the statute of limitation begins.  The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2024, 2023, or 2022. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;During fiscal 2009, preliminary consent was received from the IRS National Office approving the Company&#x2019;s application to change its tax method of accounting for certain capitalized costs relating to its utility property, subject to final guidance. The IRS released guidance on April 14, 2023, providing a natural gas transmission and distribution property safe harbor method of accounting (&#x201c;NGSH method&#x201d;) that taxpayers may use to determine whether expenses to repair, maintain, replace, or improve natural gas transmission and distribution property must be capitalized or be allowable as deductions for repairs.  The Company elected this change in tax accounting method for Distribution Corporation with its most recent consolidated tax return filing. The Company is planning to elect this same change in tax accounting method for Supply Corporation with its consolidated tax return filing in the upcoming year and has reflected an estimate in the September 30, 2024 financial statements of what is intended to be treated as a repair for tax purposes rather than being capitalized. That estimate has been recorded in Income Tax Expense.    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:9pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;

The National Fuel Gas Company Direct Stock Purchase and Dividend Reinvestment Plan allows shareholders to reinvest cash dividends and make cash investments in the Company&#x2019;s common stock and provides investors the opportunity to acquire shares of the Company common stock without the payment of any brokerage commissions in connection with such acquisitions. The 401(k) plans allow employees the opportunity to invest in the Company common stock, in addition to a variety of other investment &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;alternatives. Generally, at the discretion of the Company, shares purchased under these plans are either original issue shares purchased directly from the Company or shares purchased on the open market by an independent agent. During 2024, the Company did not issue any original issue shares of common stock for the Direct Stock Purchase and Dividend Reinvestment Plan or the Company&#x2019;s 401(k) plans.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;During 2024, the Company issued 115,337 original issue shares of common stock for restricted stock units that vested and 251,255 original issue shares of common stock for performance shares that vested.  Holders of stock-based compensation awards will often tender shares of common stock to the Company for payment of applicable withholding taxes. During 2024, 78,141&#160;shares of common stock were tendered to the Company for such purposes.

Under this program, the Company issued 36,078 original issue shares of common stock during 2024.  In addition, the Company issued 8,318 original issue shares of common stock to officers of the Company who elected to defer their shares pursuant to the dividend reinvestment features of the Company&#x2019;s DCP during 2024.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;On March 8, 2024, the Company&#x2019;s Board of Directors authorized the Company to implement a share repurchase program, whereby the Company may repurchase outstanding shares of common stock, up to an aggregate amount of $200&#160;million in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under SEC Rule 10b5-1, in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions. During 2024, the Company executed transactions to repurchase 1,146,259 shares at an average price of $56.32 per share. With broker fees and excise taxes, the total cost of these repurchases amounted to $65.2&#160;million. Share repurchases that settled during 2024 were funded with cash provided by operating activities and/or short-term borrowings. In the future, it is expected that this share repurchase program will continue to be funded with cash provided by operating activities and/or through the use of short-term borrowings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Stock Award Plans&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company has various stock award plans which provide or provided for the issuance of one or more of the following to key employees: SARs, incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance units or performance shares.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Stock-based compensation expense for the years ended September&#160;30, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was approximately $19.8 million, $18.6 million and $17.6 million, respectively.

also granted 202,259 and 195,397 performance shares during the years ended September&#160;30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  The weighted average grant date fair value of such performance shares granted in 2023 and 2022 was $64.28 per share and $65.39 per share, respectively.  As of September&#160;30, 2024, unrecognized compensation expense related to performance shares totaled approximately $15.7 million, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years. Vesting restrictions for the outstanding performance shares at September 30, 2024 will lapse as follows:  2025 &#x2014; 177,118 shares; 2026 &#x2014; 188,767 shares; 2027 &#x2014; 297,392 shares; 2028 - zero; 2029 - zero; and 56,300 shares thereafter. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The performance shares granted during the years ended September 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022 include awards that must meet a performance goal related to either relative return on capital over a three-year or five-year performance cycle (&#x201c;ROC performance shares&#x201d;), methane intensity and greenhouse gas emissions reductions over a three-year performance cycle (&#x201c;ESG performance shares&#x201d;) or relative shareholder return over a three-year or five-year performance cycle (&#x201c;TSR performance shares&#x201d;).  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The performance goal over the respective performance cycles for the ROC performance shares granted during 2024, 2023 and 2022 is the Company&#x2019;s total return on capital relative to the total return on capital of other companies in a group selected by the Compensation Committee (&#x201c;Report Group&#x201d;).  Total return on capital for a given company means the average of the Report Group companies&#x2019; returns on capital for each twelve-month period corresponding to each of the Company&#x2019;s fiscal years during the performance cycle, based on data reported for the Report Group companies in the Bloomberg database.  The number of these ROC performance shares that will vest and be paid will depend upon the Company&#x2019;s performance relative to the Report Group and not upon the absolute level of return achieved by the Company.  The fair value of the ROC performance shares is calculated by multiplying the expected number of shares that will be issued by the average market price of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.  The fair value is recorded as compensation expense over the vesting term of the award.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The performance goal over the respective performance cycles for the ESG performance shares granted during 2024, 2023 and 2022 consists of two parts: reductions in the rates of intensity of methane emissions for each of the Company&#x2019;s operating segments, and reduction of the consolidated Company&#x2019;s total greenhouse gas emissions. The Company&#x2019;s Compensation Committee set specific target levels for methane intensity rates and total greenhouse gas emissions, and the performance goal is intended to incentivize and reward performance to the extent management achieves methane intensity and greenhouse gas reduction targets making progress towards the Company&#x2019;s 2030 goals.  The number of these ESG performance shares that will vest and be paid out will depend upon the number of methane intensity segment targets achieved and whether the Company meets the total greenhouse gas emissions target. The fair value of these ESG performance shares is calculated by multiplying the expected number of shares that will be issued by the average market price of Company common stock on the date of grant reduced by the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.  The fair value is recorded as compensation expense over the vesting term of the award. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The performance goal over the respective performance cycles for the TSR performance shares granted during 2024, 2023 and 2022 is the Company&#x2019;s three-year (or five-year) total shareholder return relative to the three-year (or five-year) total shareholder return of the other companies in the Report Group.  Three-year (or five-year) total shareholder return for a given company will be based on the data reported for that company (with the starting and ending stock prices over the performance cycle calculated as the average closing stock price for the prior calendar month and with dividends reinvested in that company&#x2019;s securities at each ex-dividend date) in the Bloomberg database.  The number of these TSR performance shares that will vest and be paid will depend upon the Company&#x2019;s performance relative to the Report Group and not upon the absolute level of return achieved by the Company.  The fair value price at the date of grant for the TSR performance shares is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation technique, which includes a reduction in value for the present value of forgone dividends over the vesting term of the award.  This price is multiplied by the number of TSR performance shares awarded, the result of which is recorded as compensation expense over the vesting term of the award.  In calculating the fair value of the award, the risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of a Treasury Note with a term commensurate with the remaining term of the TSR performance shares. The remaining term is based on the remainder of the performance cycle as of the date of grant.  The expected volatility is based on historical daily stock price returns.  For the TSR performance shares, it was assumed that there would be no forfeitures, based on the vesting term and the number of grantees.  The following weighted average assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of the TSR performance shares at the date of grant:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

The interest rate payable on $500.0&#160;million of 5.50% notes will be subject to adjustment from time to time, with a maximum adjustment of 2.00%, such that the coupon will not exceed 7.50%, if there is a downgrade of the credit rating assigned to the notes to a rating below investment grade.  A downgrade with a resulting increase to the coupon does not preclude the coupon from returning to its original rate if the Company&#x2019;s credit rating is subsequently upgraded.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:2pt;margin-top:2pt;padding-left:24.75pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:-18pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;(4)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;padding-left:6.34pt"&gt;The interest rate on the delayed draw term loan is a weighted average SOFR interest rate of 6.71% that was locked in from April 2024 until the beginning of October 2024.

The Term Loan Agreement provides a $300.0&#160;million unsecured committed delayed draw term loan facility with a maturity date of February 14, 2026, and the Company has the ability to select interest periods of one, three or six months for borrowings. In April 2024, pursuant to the delayed draw mechanism, the Company elected to draw a total of $300.0&#160;million under the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;facility. After deducting debt issuance costs, the net proceeds to the Company amounted to $299.4&#160;million. The Company used the proceeds for general corporate purposes, which included the redemption of outstanding commercial paper. Borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement currently bear interest at a rate equal to SOFR for the applicable interest period, plus an adjustment of 0.10%, plus a spread of 1.375%.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;On May 18, 2023, the Company issued $300.0&#160;million of 5.50% notes due October 1, 2026. After deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and other debt issuance costs, the net proceeds to the Company amounted to $297.3&#160;million. The proceeds of this debt issuance were used for general corporate purposes, including to repay all indebtedness under a $250.0&#160;million unsecured committed delayed draw term loan under a previous 364-Day Credit Agreement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;As of September&#160;30, 2024, the aggregate principal amounts of long-term debt maturing during the next five years and thereafter are as follows: $500.0&#160;million in 2025, $800.0 million in 2026, $600.0 million in 2027, $300.0 million in 2028, zero in 2029, and $500.0 million thereafter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Short-Term Borrowings&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company historically has obtained short-term funds either through bank loans or the issuance of commercial paper. On February 28, 2022, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (as amended from time to time, the &#x201c;Credit Agreement&#x201d;) with a syndicate of twelve banks.  The Credit Agreement replaced the previous Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and a previous 364-Day Credit Agreement. As initially entered, the Credit Agreement provided a $1.0&#160;billion unsecured committed revolving credit facility with a maturity date of February 26, 2027.  In February 2024, the Company and eleven of the banks in the syndicate consented to an extension of the maturity date of the Credit Agreement from February 26, 2027 to February 25, 2028.  In May 2024, three of the banks in the syndicate assumed the commitments of the sole non-extending lender such that the Company has aggregate commitments available under the Credit Agreement in the full amount of $1.0&#160;billion to February 25, 2028.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The total amount available to be issued under the Company&#x2019;s commercial paper program is $500.0 million. The commercial paper program is backed by the Credit Agreement.  The Company also has uncommitted lines of credit with financial institutions for general corporate purposes. Borrowings under these uncommitted lines of credit would be made at competitive market rates.  The uncommitted credit lines are revocable at the option of the financial institution and are reviewed on an annual basis. The Company anticipates that its uncommitted lines of credit generally will be renewed or substantially replaced by similar lines.  Other financial institutions may also provide the Company with uncommitted or discretionary lines of credit in the future.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;At September 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding commercial paper of $90.7&#160;million with a weighted average interest rate on the commercial paper of 5.30%.  At September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding commercial paper of $287.5&#160;million with a weighted average interest rate on the commercial paper of 6.13%.   The Company did not have any outstanding short-term notes payable to banks at September 30, 2024 and 2023.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Debt Restrictions&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Both the Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement provide that the Company&#x2019;s debt to capitalization ratio will not exceed 0.65 at the last day of any fiscal quarter. For purposes of calculating the debt to capitalization ratio, the Company&#x2019;s total capitalization will be increased by adding back 50% of the aggregate after-tax amount of non-cash charges directly arising from any ceiling test impairment occurring on or after July&#160;1, 2018, not to exceed $400 million. Since that date, the Company recorded non-cash, after-tax ceiling test impairments totaling $717.9&#160;million.  As a result, at September 30, 2024, $358.9&#160;million was added back to the Company&#x2019;s total capitalization for purposes of calculating the debt to capitalization ratio under the Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement.  In addition, for purposes of calculating the debt to capitalization ratio, the following amounts included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the Company&#x2019;s &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;consolidated balance sheet will be excluded from the determination of comprehensive shareholders&#x2019; equity: all unrealized gains or losses on commodity-related derivative financial instruments, and up to $10&#160;million in unrealized gains or losses on other derivative financial instruments. As a result of these exclusions, such unrealized gains or losses will not positively or negatively affect the calculation of the debt to capitalization ratio.  At September 30, 2024, the Company&#x2019;s debt to capitalization ratio, as calculated under the Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement was 0.47. The constraints specified in the agreements would have permitted an additional $3.07 billion in short-term and/or long-term debt to be outstanding at September 30, 2024 (further limited by the indenture covenants discussed below) before the Company&#x2019;s debt to capitalization ratio exceeded 0.65.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;A downgrade in the Company&#x2019;s credit ratings could increase borrowing costs, negatively impact the availability of capital from banks, commercial paper purchasers and other sources, and require the Company&#x2019;s subsidiaries to post letters of credit, cash or other assets as collateral with certain counterparties. If the Company is not able to maintain investment grade credit ratings, it may not be able to access commercial paper markets. However, the Company expects that it could borrow under its credit facilities or rely upon other liquidity sources.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement each contain a cross-default provision whereby the failure by the Company or its significant subsidiaries to make payments under other borrowing arrangements, or the occurrence of certain events affecting those other borrowing arrangements, could trigger an obligation to repay any amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement or Term Loan Agreement, as applicable. In particular, a repayment obligation could be triggered if (i)&#160;the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries fails to make a payment when due of any principal or interest on any other indebtedness aggregating $40.0 million or more or (ii)&#160;an event occurs that causes, or would permit the holders of any other indebtedness aggregating $40.0 million or more to cause, such indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company&#x2019;s present liquidity position is believed to be adequate to satisfy known demands. In order to issue incremental long-term debt, the Company must meet an interest coverage test under its existing indenture covenants. In general, the Company&#x2019;s operating income, subject to certain adjustments, over a consecutive 12-month period within the 15 months preceding the debt issuance, must be not less than two times the total annual interest charges on the Company&#x2019;s long-term debt, taking into account the incremental issuance.  In addition, taking into account the incremental issuance, and using a pro forma balance sheet as of the last day of the 12-month period used in the interest coverage test, the Company must maintain a ratio of long-term debt to consolidated assets (as defined under the indenture) of not more than 60%. Under the Company&#x2019;s 1974 indenture, given the impairments of exploration and production properties the Company recognized during the year ended September 30, 2024, the indenture covenants would preclude the Company from issuing incremental long-term debt beginning January 2025, for a period likely extending to June 2025, when the remaining debt outstanding under the 1974 indenture matures. The indenture covenants do not, however, prevent the Company from issuing new long-term debt to replace existing long-term debt, including borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement, or from issuing additional short-term debt. Please refer to Part II, Item 7, Critical Accounting Estimates section above for a sensitivity analysis concerning commodity price changes and their impact on the ceiling test.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;As of September 30, 2024, the Company has $50.0&#160;million in principal and $3.2&#160;million in interest payments remaining related to long-term debt issued under the 1974 indenture. Currently, the Company does not anticipate a need to issue incremental long-term debt and only has plans for new long-term debt to replace maturing long-term debt. To the extent a need arises to issue incremental long-term debt, the Company expects to be able to place future principal and interest payments in trust for the benefit of bondholders pursuant to the terms of the 1974 indenture. Depositing the future principal and interest payments in trust would effectively relieve the Company from its obligations to comply with the 1974 indenture&#x2019;s restrictions, including those on the issuance of incremental long-term debt.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;In addition to the covenants noted above, the Company&#x2019;s 1974 indenture contains a cross-default provision whereby the failure by the Company to perform certain obligations under other borrowing arrangements could trigger an obligation to repay the debt outstanding under the indenture. In particular, a repayment obligation could be triggered if the Company fails (i)&#160;to pay any scheduled principal or interest on any debt under any other indenture or agreement, or (ii)&#160;to perform any other term in any other such indenture or agreement, and the effect of the failure causes, or would permit the holders of the debt to cause, the debt under such indenture or agreement to become due prior to its stated maturity, unless cured or waived.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</nfg:CapitalizationAndShortTermBorrowingsDisclosureTextBlock>

Those inputs are prioritized into three levels. Level&#160;1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date.  Level&#160;2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level&#160;1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly at the measurement date. Level&#160;3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company&#x2019;s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The following table sets forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company&#x2019;s financial assets and liabilities (as applicable) that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September&#160;30, 2024 and 2023.

3, 2017, Supply Corporation and Empire received FERC approval of the Northern Access project described herein. Substantial litigation ensued over the next several years concerning various federal and state authorizations for the project, with the majority of project development activities suspended pending resolution. These legal actions included, most recently, an appeal of FERC&#x2019;s June 2022 order granting Supply Corporation and Empire an extension of time to construct the project through December 31, 2024.  In March 2024, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued an order affirming FERC&#x2019;s extension of time, with such order final as of late June 2024.  Upon resolution of the extensive litigation, Supply Corporation and Empire began to assess next steps for the project, including a review of the status of necessary federal and state authorizations, as well as potential changes in expected capital expenditures and the related transportation rates &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;that Supply Corporation and Empire needed to support the project. As a result of this review, and in accordance with the precedent agreements between the respective parties, Supply Corporation and Empire sent notifications to Seneca, the sole shipper for the project, indicating their intent to increase the project&#x2019;s firm transportation rates to account for the anticipated increase in capital expenditures to complete the project. Upon receipt, Seneca indicated it was unwilling to accept the revised transportation rates and intended to terminate the precedent agreements for the project. The precedent agreements were subsequently terminated on October 16, 2024. Accordingly, the Company will no longer pursue construction of the Northern Access project and has taken an impairment charge of $46.1&#160;million at September 30, 2024.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Derivative Financial Instruments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:5pt;margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;At September 30, 2024, the derivative financial instruments reported in Level&#160;2 consist of natural gas price swap agreements, natural gas no cost collars, and foreign currency contracts, all of which are used in the Company&#x2019;s Exploration and Production segment.  The fair value of the Level 2 price swap agreements and no cost collars is based on an internal cash flow model that uses observable inputs (i.e. SOFR based discount rates for the price swap agreements and basis differential information, if applicable, at active natural gas trading markets). The fair value of the Level 2 foreign currency contracts is determined using the market approach based on observable market transactions of forward Canadian currency rates. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures require consideration of the impact of nonperformance risk (including credit risk) from a market participant perspective in the measurement of the fair value of assets and liabilities.  At September&#160;30, 2024, the Company determined that nonperformance risk associated with the price swap agreements, no cost collars and foreign currency contracts would have no material impact on its financial position or results of operation.  To assess nonperformance risk, the Company considered information such as any applicable collateral posted, master netting arrangements, and applied a market-based method by using the counterparty&#x2019;s (assuming the derivative is in a gain position) or the Company&#x2019;s (assuming the derivative is in a loss position) credit default swaps rates.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Derivative financial instruments reported in Level 2 at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 also includes the contingent consideration associated with the sale of the Exploration and Production segment&#x2019;s California assets on June 30, 2022, which is discussed at Note B &#x2014; Asset Acquisitions and Divestitures&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;and at Note&#160;J&#160;&#x2014; Financial Instruments. The fair value of the contingent consideration was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model that uses observable inputs, including the ICE Brent closing price as of the valuation date, initial and max trigger price, volatility, risk free rate, time of maturity and counterparty risk.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:FairValueDisclosuresTextBlock>

The insurance contracts and equity mutual fund are primarily informal funding mechanisms for various benefit obligations the Company has to certain employees. The fixed income mutual fund is primarily an informal funding mechanism for certain regulatory obligations that the Company has to Utility segment customers in its Pennsylvania jurisdiction, as discussed in Note&#160;F&#160;&#x2014; Regulatory Matters, and for various benefit obligations the Company has to certain employees.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Derivative Financial Instruments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage commodity price risk in the Exploration and Production segment.  The Company enters into over-the-counter no cost collar and swap agreements for natural gas to manage the price risk associated with forecasted sales of natural gas.  In addition, the Company also enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage the risk of currency fluctuations associated with transportation costs denominated in Canadian currency in the Exploration and Production segment. These instruments are accounted for as cash flow hedges.  The duration of the Company&#x2019;s cash flow hedges does not typically exceed 5 years while the foreign currency forward contracts do not exceed 6 years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;On June 30, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Seneca&#x2019;s California assets. The terms of the purchase and sale agreement specified that the Company could receive up to three annual contingent payments between calendar year 2023 and calendar year 2025, not to exceed $10&#160;million per year, with the amount of each annual payment calculated as $1.0&#160;million for each $1 per barrel that the ICE Brent Average for each calendar year exceeds $95 per barrel up to $105 per barrel.  The calendar 2023 contingency period expired with the ICE Brent Average falling below $95 per barrel. The Company has determined that this contingent consideration meets the definition of a derivative under the authoritative accounting guidance.  Changes in the fair value of this contingent consideration are marked-to-market each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in Other Income (Deductions) on the Consolidated Statement of Income.  The fair value of this contingent consideration was estimated to be $0.7&#160;million and $7.3&#160;million at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.  A $6.6&#160;million mark-to-market adjustment to reduce the fair value of the contingent consideration was recorded during the year ended September 30, 2024.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company has presented its net derivative assets and liabilities as &#x201c;Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments&#x201d; on its Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration:underline"&gt;Cash Flow Hedges&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;For derivative financial instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 349.4 Bcf of natural gas commodity derivative contracts (swaps and no cost collars) outstanding.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;As of September 30, 2024, the Company was hedging a total of $51.2 million of forecasted transportation costs denominated in Canadian dollars with foreign currency forward contracts.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $55.8 million of net hedging gains after taxes included in the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) balance.  Of this amount, it is expected that $33.3 million of unrealized gains after taxes will be reclassified into the Consolidated Statement of Income within the next 12&#160;months as the underlying hedged transactions are recorded in earnings.  The remaining unrealized gains will be reclassified into the Consolidated Statement of Income in subsequent periods. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:4pt"&gt;&lt;table

Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company may be exposed to credit risk on any of the derivative financial instruments that are in a gain position. Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that the Company would incur as a result of nonperformance by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations. To mitigate such credit risk, management performs a credit check, and then on a quarterly basis monitors counterparty credit exposure. The majority of the Company&#x2019;s counterparties are financial institutions and energy traders. The Company has over-the-counter swap positions, no cost collars and applicable foreign currency forward contracts with nineteen counterparties of which seventeen are in a net gain position.  On average, the Company had $5.1&#160;million of credit exposure per counterparty in a gain position at September 30, 2024.  The maximum credit exposure per counterparty in a gain position at September 30, 2024 was $18.9&#160;million.  As of September 30, 2024, no collateral was received from the counterparties by the Company. The Company&#x2019;s gain position on such derivative financial instruments had not exceeded the established thresholds at which the counterparties would be required to post collateral, nor had the counterparties&#x2019; credit ratings declined to levels at which the counterparties were required to post collateral.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;As of September 30, 2024, sixteen of the nineteen counterparties to the Company&#x2019;s outstanding derivative financial contracts (specifically the over-the-counter swaps, over-the-counter no cost collars and applicable foreign currency forward contracts) had a common credit-risk related contingency feature. In the event the Company&#x2019;s credit rating increases or falls below a certain threshold (applicable debt ratings), the available &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;credit that could be extended to the Company when it is in a derivative financial liability position would either increase or decrease. A decline in the Company&#x2019;s credit rating, in and of itself, would not cause the Company to be required to post or increase the level of its hedging collateral deposits (in the form of cash deposits, letters of credit or treasury debt instruments). If the Company&#x2019;s outstanding derivative financial instrument contracts with a credit-risk contingency feature were in a liability position (or if the liability were larger) and/or the Company&#x2019;s credit rating declined, then hedging collateral deposits or an increase to such deposits could be required. At September 30, 2024, the Company did not have any derivative financial instrument liabilities with a credit-risk related contingency feature according to the Company&#x2019;s internal model (discussed in Note&#160;I&#160;&#x2014; Fair Value Measurements). Depending on the movement of commodity prices in the future, it is possible that the Company&#x2019;s derivative asset positions could swing into liability positions, at which point the Company could be required to post hedging collateral deposits.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company&#x2019;s requirement to post hedging collateral deposits and the Company&#x2019;s right to receive hedging collateral deposits is based on the fair value determined by the Company&#x2019;s counterparties, which may differ from the Company&#x2019;s assessment of fair value.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:FinancialInstrumentsDisclosureTextBlock>

The Retirement Plan covers certain non-collectively bargained employees hired before July&#160;1, 2003 and certain collectively bargained employees hired before November&#160;1, 2003. Certain non-collectively bargained employees hired after June&#160;30, 2003 and certain collectively bargained employees hired after October&#160;31, 2003 are eligible for a Retirement Savings Account benefit provided under the Company&#x2019;s defined contribution Tax-Deferred Savings Plans. Costs associated with the Retirement Savings Account were $6.5 million, $5.7 million and $5.3 million for the years ended September&#160;30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  Costs associated with the Company&#x2019;s contributions to the Tax-Deferred Savings Plans, exclusive of the costs associated with the Retirement Savings Account, were $9.0 million, $8.2 million and $7.8 million for the years ended September&#160;30, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:3pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company provides health care and life insurance benefits (other post-retirement benefits) for a majority of its retired employees. The other post-retirement benefits cover certain non-collectively bargained employees hired before January&#160;1, 2003 and certain collectively bargained employees hired before October&#160;31, 2003.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:3pt;margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company&#x2019;s policy is to fund the Retirement Plan with at least an amount necessary to satisfy the minimum funding requirements of applicable laws and regulations and not more than the maximum amount deductible for federal income tax purposes. The Company has established VEBA trusts for its other post-retirement benefits. Contributions to the VEBA trusts are tax deductible, subject to limitations contained in the Internal Revenue Code and regulations and are made to fund employees&#x2019; other post-retirement benefits, as well as benefits as they are paid to current retirees. In addition, the Company has established 401(h) accounts for its other post-retirement benefits. They are separate accounts within the Retirement Plan trust used to pay retiree medical benefits for the associated participants in the Retirement Plan. Although these accounts are in the Retirement Plan trust, for funding status purposes as shown below, the 401(h) accounts are included in Fair Value of Assets under Other Post-Retirement Benefits. Contributions are tax-deductible when made, subject to limitations contained in the Internal Revenue Code and regulations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The expected return on Retirement Plan assets, a component of net periodic benefit cost shown in the tables below, is applied to the market-related value of plan assets. The market-related value of plan assets is the market value as of the measurement date adjusted for variances between actual returns and expected returns (from previous years) that have not been reflected in net periodic benefit costs.  The expected return on other post-retirement benefit assets (i.e. the VEBA trusts and 401(h) accounts), which is a component of net periodic benefit cost shown in the tables below, is applied to the fair value of assets as of the measurement date.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Reconciliations of the Benefit Obligations, Plan Assets and Funded Status, as well as the components of Net Periodic Benefit Cost and the Weighted Average Assumptions of the Retirement Plan and other post-retirement benefits are shown in the tables below.

The return assumption reflects the anticipated long-term rate of return on the plan&#x2019;s current and future assets. The Company utilizes projected capital market conditions and the plan&#x2019;s target asset class and investment manager allocations to set the assumption regarding the expected return on plan assets.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The long-term investment objective of the Retirement Plan trust, the VEBA trusts and the 401(h) accounts is to achieve the target total return in accordance with the Company&#x2019;s risk tolerance. Assets are diversified utilizing a mix of equities, fixed income and other securities (including real estate). Risk tolerance is established through consideration of plan liabilities, plan funded status and corporate financial condition. The assets of the Retirement Plan trust, VEBA trusts and the 401(h) accounts have no significant concentrations of risk in any one country (other than the United States), industry or entity. The actual asset allocations as of September 30, 2024 are noted in the table above, and such allocations are subject to change, but the majority of the assets will remain hedging fixed income assets in conjunction with the Company&#x2019;s liability driven investment strategy.  Given the level of the VEBA trust and 401(h) assets in relation to the Other Post-Retirement Benefits, the majority of those assets are and will remain in fixed income securities.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;Investment managers are retained to manage separate pools of assets.

The individual spot rates along the yield curve are determined by an above mean methodology in that the coupon interest rates that are in the lower 50th percentile are excluded based on the assumption that the Company would not utilize more expensive (i.e. lower yield) instruments to settle its liabilities.</us-gaap:PensionAndOtherPostretirementBenefitsDisclosureTextBlock>

At September 30, 2024, the Company has estimated its remaining clean-up costs related to former manufactured gas plant sites will be approximately $2.4 million.  The Company&#x2019;s liability for such clean-up costs has been recorded in Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at September&#160;30, 2024.  The Company has a regulatory liability of $5.4&#160;million related to environmental clean-up costs at September 30, 2024 and is currently not aware of any material additional exposure to environmental liabilities.  However, changes in environmental laws and regulations, new information or other factors could have an adverse financial impact on the Company.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:11.25pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%"&gt;Other&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company, in its Utility segment and Exploration and Production segment, has entered into contractual commitments in the ordinary course of business, including commitments to purchase gas, transportation, and storage service to meet customer gas supply needs.

Gas prices within the gas purchase contracts are variable based on NYMEX prices adjusted for basis. In the Utility segment, these costs are subject to state commission review, and are being recovered in customer rates.

His qualifications include a Bachelor of Science Degree in Petroleum Engineering and over 15 years of Petroleum Engineering experience with independent oil and gas companies, licensure as a Professional Engineer and is a member of the Society of Petroleum Engineers. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:5pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The Company maintains a system of internal controls over the reserve estimation process. Management reviews the price, heat content, lease operating cost and future investment assumptions used in the economic model to determine the reserves. The Vice President of Reservoir Engineering reviews and approves all new reserve assignments and significant reserve revisions. Access to the reserve database is restricted. Significant changes to the reserve report are reviewed by senior management on a quarterly basis. Periodically, the Company&#x2019;s internal audit department assesses the design of these controls and performs testing to determine the effectiveness of such controls.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:6pt;text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;All of the Company&#x2019;s reserve estimates are audited annually by Netherland, Sewell &amp;amp; Associates, Inc. (NSAI). Since 1961, NSAI has evaluated gas and oil properties and independently certified petroleum reserve quantities in the United States and internationally under the Texas Board of Professional Engineers Registration No. F-002699. The primary technical persons (employed by NSAI) that are responsible for leading the audit include a professional engineer registered with the State of Texas (consulting at NSAI since 2019 and with over 6 years of prior industry experience in petroleum engineering) and a professional geoscientist registered in the State of Texas (consulting at NSAI since 2008 and with over 11 years of prior industry experience in petroleum geosciences).  NSAI was satisfied with the methods and procedures used by the Company to prepare its reserve estimates at September 30, 2024 and did not identify any problems which would cause it to take exception to those estimates.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align:justify;text-indent:24.75pt"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%"&gt;The reliable technologies that were utilized in estimating the reserves include wire line open-hole log data, performance data, log cross sections, core data, 2D and 3D seismic data and statistical analysis. The statistical method utilized production performance from both the Company&#x2019;s and competitors&#x2019; wells. Geophysical data includes data from the Company&#x2019;s wells, third-party wells, published documents and state data-sites, and 2D and 3D seismic data.

It is based upon subjective estimates of proved reserves only and attributes no value to categories of reserves other than proved reserves, such as probable or possible reserves, or to unproved acreage. Furthermore, in accordance with the SEC&#x2019;s final rule on Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting, it is based on the unweighted arithmetic average of first day of the month commodity price for each month within the twelve-month period prior to the end of the reporting period and costs adjusted only for existing contractual changes. It assumes an arbitrary discount rate of 10%. Thus, it gives no effect to future price and cost changes certain to occur under widely fluctuating political and economic conditions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div
