Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Long-Term Debt | Long-Term Debt Registrant’s long-term debt consists of notes and debentures of GSWC and BVES. Registrant summarizes its long-term debt in the Statements of Capitalization. GSWC and BVES do not currently have any secured debt. On January 13, 2023, GSWC issued $130.0 million unsecured private-placement notes consisting of: $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of Series A Senior Notes at a coupon rate of 5.12% due January 31, 2033 and $30.0 million aggregate principal amount of Series B Senior Notes at a coupon rate of 5.22% due January 31, 2038. GSWC used the proceeds to pay down intercompany borrowings with AWR and to fund operations and capital expenditures for GSWC. Interest is payable semiannually on January 31 and July 31 of each year. The Series A and Series B notes are unsecured and rank equally with GSWC’s unsecured and unsubordinated debt. GSWC may, at its option, redeem all or portions of the notes at any time upon written notice, subject to payment of a make-whole premium based on 50 basis points above the applicable treasury yield. The make-whole premiums and covenant requirements under these new notes are similar to the terms of the other private placement notes issued by GSWC. Pursuant to the terms of each of these notes, GSWC must maintain a total indebtedness to capitalization ratio (as defined) of less than 0.6667-to-1 and a total indebtedness to earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of less than 8-to-1. As of December 31, 2023, GSWC had a total indebtedness to capitalization ratio of 0.4956-to-1 and a total indebtedness to EBITDA of 3.4-to-1. On April 28, 2022, BVES completed the issuance of $35.0 million in unsecured private-placement notes consisting of $17.5 million at a coupon rate of 4.548% due April 28, 2032 and $17.5 million at a coupon rate of 4.949% due April 28, 2037. BVES used the proceeds from the notes to pay down all amounts under its revolving credit facility outstanding at the time of issuing the notes. Interest on these notes is payable semiannually, and the covenant requirements under these notes are similar to the terms of BVES’s revolving credit facility (Note 9).
