Eli's questions to ATMOS ENERGY (ATO) leadership

Question · Q1 2026

Eli, on behalf of Jeremy Tonet, asked about the impact of a recent special election in Texas where a Democrat seat flipped, and also inquired about adjustments to the plan following the Mississippi rate case outcome and the process going forward.

Answer

Kevin Akers (CEO) stated that Atmos Energy is apolitical, working with all parties to share its stakeholder strategy and emphasizing natural gas as an essential energy source, having navigated many administration changes. Chris Forsythe (CFO) added that the safety and reliability-driven plan remains unchanged, and they are in dialogue with the Mississippi commission, evaluating a shift to a historical test basis, and have filed an intent to appeal the decision to the Mississippi Supreme Court, noting Mississippi is roughly 5% of the business.
