• Think of it as the **natural gas utility for central and northern New Jersey**, similar to how **Consolidated Edison (ConEd)** provides power and gas for New York City.
• Like a smaller version of **NextEra Energy**, combining a core regulated natural gas utility business with significant investments in solar power generation.

• Natural Gas Distribution: Delivers natural gas to residential and commercial customers within its regulated utility service territory in New Jersey.
• Clean Energy Ventures: Develops, owns, and operates solar energy projects that generate and sell renewable electricity.
• Energy Storage and Midstream: Provides natural gas storage and transportation services through its infrastructure assets.
• Wholesale Energy Services: Offers wholesale natural gas marketing, risk management, and asset management services.

New Jersey Resources (NJR) is a diversified energy services company. Based on its latest financial reports (fiscal year 2023 10-K), the company primarily sells to other companies, particularly through its NJR Energy Services segment, which generates the largest portion of its operating revenues from wholesale energy transactions.

However, due to the diversified nature of its wholesale energy operations and a lack of significant customer concentration, NJR does not disclose the names of specific major customer companies. According to its 2023 10-K filing, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of NJR's consolidated operating revenues in fiscal years 2023, 2022, or 2021. Therefore, specific names of major customer companies with their symbols are not publicly available.

Instead, NJR serves a broad range of companies across its wholesale energy services, midstream, and clean energy segments. The categories of companies that constitute its major customers include:

• Natural Gas Distribution Companies (Local Distribution Companies or LDCs)
• Electric Power Generators
• Industrial End-Users (large industrial and commercial facilities purchasing directly from the wholesale market)
• Natural Gas Marketers
• Natural Gas Producers
• Other Utilities (for renewable energy offtake agreements)

These customers operate across various regions, primarily in the northeastern and mid-Atlantic United States, as well as other energy markets.

The following are major suppliers identified for New Jersey Resources (NJR), primarily providing natural gas transportation services critical to its distribution operations:

• Enbridge Inc. (Symbol: ENB)
• The Williams Companies, Inc. (Symbol: WMB)
• Kinder Morgan, Inc. (Symbol: KMI)
• TC Energy Corporation (Symbol: TRP)

The accelerated transition towards decarbonization and electrification, driven by government policies (such as New Jersey's Energy Master Plan) and advancements in electric technologies (like heat pumps), poses a clear emerging threat. This trend aims to reduce reliance on natural gas for heating and other applications, directly challenging the long-term demand and growth prospects for New Jersey Resources' core natural gas utility business (New Jersey Natural Gas), its midstream assets, and home services, by displacing their primary product and service offerings.

Here are the expected drivers of future revenue growth for New Jersey Resources (NJR) over the next 2-3 years:

1. Regulated Rate Base Growth and Infrastructure Investments: New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG), NJR's primary utility segment, is expected to see continued revenue growth through approved base rate increases and ongoing capital investments in its infrastructure. A recent settlement approved a $157.0 million annual increase to base rates, effective November 2024, contributing to a 29% increase in the rate base compared to the last settlement. The company also has an Infrastructure Investment Program (IIP), a five-year, $150 million accelerated recovery program that began in fiscal 2021.
2. Expansion of Clean Energy Ventures (CEV) Portfolio: NJR is actively expanding its Clean Energy Ventures segment, particularly through investments in commercial solar projects. The company added 31 megawatts of solar capacity in Q2 2025 and plans to place approximately 63 megawatts into service in fiscal 2025. This expansion is supported by a project pipeline of over one gigawatt, enhancing future growth potential in solar-friendly jurisdictions. The successful monetization of its residential solar portfolio has also provided capital for future growth opportunities.
3. Consistent Customer Growth in Natural Gas Distribution: The New Jersey Natural Gas segment continues to experience steady customer growth, serving approximately 588,300 customers across six counties in New Jersey, up from 548,000 in 2019. This consistent increase in its customer base contributes directly to the utility's recurring revenues.
4. Growth from Energy Efficiency Programs: NJR's energy efficiency initiatives, such as the SAVEGREEN program, are expected to drive revenue growth. The company launched a $386 million energy efficiency program, the largest in New Jersey natural gas history, which will run through June 2027. Fiscal 2025 SAVEGREEN capital expenditures are projected to grow over 30% to $90-95 million, driven by strong customer demand and operational efficiencies.
5. Improved Performance in Storage and Transportation: The Storage and Transportation segment has demonstrated improved performance, primarily driven by higher revenues at Leaf River. This diversification across business segments contributes to the company's overall financial resilience and growth.
