Revenue
Water sales are seasonal in nature and influenced by weather conditions. The timing of precipitation and climatic conditions can cause seasonal water consumption by customers to vary significantly. Due to the seasonal nature of the water business, the operating results for interim periods are not indicative of the operating results for a 12-month period. Revenue is generally higher in the warm, dry summer months when water usage and sales are greater, and lower in the winter months when cooler temperatures and increased precipitation curtail water usage resulting in lower sales.
H2O America’s revenue components are as follows:

Fair Value Measurement
The following instruments are not measured at fair value on H2O America’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025, but require disclosure of their fair values: cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The estimated fair value of such instruments as of September 30, 2025 approximates their carrying value as reported
on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. There have been no changes in valuation techniques during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The fair value of these instruments would be categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, with the exception of cash and cash equivalents, which would be categorized as Level 1.
The fair value of H2O America’s long-term debt was $1,603,773 and $1,490,024 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the current rates for similar financial instruments of the same duration and creditworthiness of the company. Of the total fair value of long-term debt at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $1,586,432 and $1,473,393, respectively, would be categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy and $17,341 and $16,631, respectively, would be categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
CTWS’s additional retirement benefits under the supplemental executive retirement plans and retirement contracts are funded by investment assets held by a Rabbi Trust.

Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated using income available to common stockholders, divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock including both shares outstanding and shares potentially issuable in connection with restricted common stock awards under H2O America’s long-term incentive plans and shares potentially issuable under H2O America’s employee stock purchase plan. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, 4,954 and 485 anti-dilutive restricted common stock units were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, 38,734 and 5,289 anti-dilutive restricted common stock units were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation, respectively.
