Financials Breakdown Chart

Key Financial Trends

Northwest Natural Gas (NYSE: NWN) showed a mixed but generally improving operating picture in the first nine months of 2025, with a strong first quarter followed by weaker results in Q2 and Q3. Revenue remained relatively stable versus 2024, but profitability was volatile and cash flow turned negative in the latest quarter.

  • Q1 2025 was a strong quarter, with operating revenue of $494.3 million and net income of $87.9 million, well above the prior-year quarter.
  • For Q1 2025, operating cash flow was solid at $179.6 million, supported by strong earnings and working-capital improvements.
  • Equity increased slightly over the period, with total common equity rising to $1.43 billion by Q3 2025 from $1.36 billion in Q3 2024.
  • Gross profit improved sharply in Q1 2025, reaching $237.6 million, compared with $184.1 million in Q1 2024.
  • Revenue in Q3 2025 was $164.7 million, down from $211.7 million in Q2 2025 and $136.9 million in Q3 2024, reflecting normal seasonal variation in a utility business.
  • Capital spending remained high throughout the period, with quarterly property, plant and equipment purchases generally around $82 million to $120 million, indicating continued investment in infrastructure.
  • The company continued to use debt markets, issuing $185 million of debt in Q3 2025 and $375 million in Q1 2025, while also repaying debt in the same periods.
  • Cash and equivalents fell to $32.2 million in Q3 2025 from $102.6 million in Q2 2025, but the business still carried substantial operating liquidity through receivables and other current assets.
  • Q2 2025 and Q3 2025 both posted losses, with net income of -$2.5 million in Q2 and -$29.9 million in Q3, showing profit pressure after the strong first quarter.
  • Operating cash flow weakened materially in Q3 2025, falling to -$15.9 million from $102.2 million in Q2 2025 and $179.6 million in Q1 2025.
  • Total cash declined by $70.8 million in Q3 2025, indicating that investment spending and financing outflows outweighed operating performance.
  • Debt levels remain elevated, with long-term debt at $2.13 billion and short-term debt at $311.1 million in Q3 2025.
  • Interest expense burden appears significant; Northwest Natural paid $37.9 million in cash interest during Q3 2025, which weighed on bottom-line results.

Looking at the broader trend, Northwest Natural’s business remains characteristic of a regulated utility: stable revenue base, heavy capital spending, and a reliance on debt financing. The main issue for investors is that earnings have been inconsistent in 2025, especially outside of Q1. The company’s balance sheet is still sizeable, but leverage and interest costs remain important risks to watch.

Bottom line: NWN has long-term utility assets and a steady demand profile, but recent quarters show pressure on earnings and operating cash flow. Investors will likely want to see a return to more consistent profitability and stronger cash generation before the trend looks clearly favorable.
