New Jersey Resources Corporation is a diversified energy services holding company operating through four reportable segments: Natural Gas Distribution, Clean Energy Ventures, Energy Services, and Storage and Transportation. The Natural Gas Distribution segment, operated through New Jersey Natural Gas Company, provides regulated natural gas utility service to residential and commercial customers across six counties in New Jersey and participates in off-system sales and capacity release markets. The Clean Energy Ventures segment invests in unregulated capital projects in clean energy, including commercial solar installations, with a portfolio that has expanded to 479 megawatts as of fiscal 2025. The Energy Services segment maintains and transacts a portfolio of physical natural gas transportation and storage contracts while providing unregulated wholesale energy management services to other energy companies and producers. The Storage and Transportation segment invests in energy-related ventures including wholly-owned natural gas storage and transportation facilities at Leaf River in Mississippi and Adelphia in Pennsylvania, as well as a 50% ownership interest in Steckman Ridge in Pennsylvania, all subject to FERC regulation. The company's business model combines stable, regulated utility earnings anchored by New Jersey Natural Gas with growth from unregulated infrastructure investments and energy services, supported by disciplined capital deployment and a strong balance sheet that requires no block equity issuance to execute its capital plan.
【Utility-anchored growth trajectory】 Management expects New Jersey Natural Gas to drive high single-digit rate-based growth through 2030, supported by continued customer growth from new construction, conversions, and targeted infrastructure expansion. Storage and Transportation is positioned for accelerated earnings growth, with net financial earnings expected to more than double by 2027 driven by favorable recontracting at both Adelphia and Leaf River, followed by additional upside from capacity expansion projects backed by long-term fee-based contracts. Clean Energy Ventures is expected to expand installed capacity by more than 50% over the next two years, supported by a robust pipeline of safe-harbored projects exceeding 1.2 gigawatts that provides optionality for disciplined capital deployment in markets with supportive policy and strong demand. The company maintains a five-year capital outlook of $4.8 billion to $5.2 billion through fiscal 2030, with more than 60% allocated to the utility and the balance to Clean Energy Ventures and Storage and Transportation, supporting the long-term 7%-9% net financial earnings per share growth target while preserving strong credit metrics.
